The Ishi invasions of Jinguk comprised of a series of separate yet linked operations undertaken by Ishikoku to gain control of the Jin islands of {ISLAND ONE} and {ISLAND TWO}. 
Ishikoku quickly succeeded in occupying large portions of {ISLAND ONE AND TWO}, having caught the Jin defenders by surprise. However, a well-organized counter-attack planned by Queen Yeonghwa led to the near-complete destruction of the Ishi Navy. Along with the contributions of righteous armies (Jin civilian militias) and supply difficulties hampering the Ishi, this led to a decisive victory for Jinguk.
The devastating loss dealt a serious blow to the Shogun of Ishikoku Soga Hironaga who would later commit suicide. To the wider Ishi public, the loss came as a major blow to morale, and led to greater military modernization and reorganization in that country.
In Jinguk, the military victory was a massive boost to the popularity of Queen Yeonghwa and the Hwaryeong Dynasty.
