Fragmented Wars

The Fragmented Wars was a large-scale conflict that was comprised of a series of small to medium size engagements located on the planet of Corsair. The war was propagated by the Blood Knights, a military force that belonged to the then destroyed Dread Empire. Several smaller factions arose on Corsair at the time including the Sovereignty Front, the Rhein Insurgency and Black December. While the battles themselves were not enormous in the scheme of some battles in Corsari history, both sides did amass over 20 million troops between them. There was one noted instance of a nuclear weapon being used by the Blood Knights but to little actual effect. The Fragmented Wars were a direct precursor that set Corsair on the path to the much larger and much more devastating Corsari Conflict after a complete resurgence of the Dread Empire. 
The Fragmented Wars were sparked by a populist movement of Corsari citizens who were displeased at the current state of the government and the path they were taking. The mix of citizens included average citizens, criminals, and those who supported the Monarchy that was dissolved in 2456. The movement was led primarily by Ultra-nationalists. The Blood Knights and the Sovereignty Front provided most of the manpower to the Separatist forces.
