Invasion of Vanaheim

The Invasion of Vanaheim was a conquest of the Vanir home planet of Vanaheim undertaken by the Marauders, sparked by the lack of peaceful influence of the Asgardians once the Rainbow Bridge was destroyed.
==Background==
Following the destruction of the Rainbow Bridge at the hands of Thor in the Duel at the Rainbow Bridge, the Asgardians lost their ability to harness the Bifrost Bridge and thus were unable to intervene in attacks on the other realms.Thor: The Dark World Prelude
==Invasion==
The Marauders seized the opportunity of the Asgardian inability to travel in order to invade Vanaheim, and started to ransack and the Vanir villages.
==Aftermath==
The Tesseract was taken into Asgard's possession and Loki was imprisoned in the Asgardian Dungeons. The Tesseract was given to Heimdall so that he could regenerate the Rainbow Bridge, allowing the Asgardians to harness the Bifrost once more. Thor commanded the Asgardian army to travel to Vanaheim and the rest of the worlds taken by force, and restore peace in them. In a battle against the Marauders, Thor and the rest of Asgard freed Vanaheim and restored peace. They helped the Vanir restore their homes, and Hogun chose to stay with his people to ensure their safety.
