The Great Western War

The Great Western War was major conflict in western Sona at the beginning of the 18th century CC on the planet Espa.
==Prelude==
In 1698 the king of Daravia had expressed interest into establishing a colony on Aurul, this however was in violation of treaty it had with Calomir, but when in 1698 the king came to pass the price, now King Lorvat, challenges Calomirian power, by establishing a colony on Aurul. Brezia, Calomirs traditional enemy joined forces with Daravia, while Venzia joins with Calomir fearing an imbalance of power in favor of Brezia.
==The War==
Calomir invaded Daravia in the winter of 1699, followed by Venzia but is halted before they can reach the capital Weena. Brezia invades Calomir in spring, which reaches out to Beru, Beru still eager to reclaim territories lost in the Beruvian Winter War war, eagerly invades the Northern Federation, provoking in turn Chala to join the war on the side of Daravia and Brezia. The invading Beruvian forces from the north however far outnumber the Chala-Brezian forces which are slowly pushed back. Chalanese forces then attack the Calomirian colony Ender on Aurul but are repelled, in 1701 a ferocious battle was fought at Weena and the city fell in the hands of Venzia, thus forcing Daravia into signing an armistice.
Focus of the war shifted to the north where Beruvian armies had captured huge amounts of territory, in 1703 CC Beruvian forces crossed the Chalanese border, Chala and Brezia, fearing a repeat of the Chalanese war of succession 200 years earlier turned to desperate measures and regrouped at Barnhaven, a fortified stronghold inside the Northern Federation, during the Seige of Barnhaven which lasted 2 years thousands would lose their lives. But in 1706 it was finally broken and Beru marched on towards Sagean.
To the south Venzia had negotiated itself out of the war with Daravia and Calomir now had its full attention on Brezia, the war took a very negative turn and as the situation slowly deteriorated for Brezia. In 1707 it became forced to surrender, a defeat long and hard felt by the Brezians...
==Result==
The Brezian-Calomirian border shifted about 2000 km North. Chala lost great amounts of territorial influence in the confederation which ceded large territories to Beru, and Daravia was reduced to half its former extend in favor of Venzia and Calomir.
