War of the Seven Kingdoms

The War of the Seven Kingdoms, also known as WOTSK, was a significant historical event that lasted from 05/03/1500 to 23/06/1560 in the territories that constitute the present-day United Federation of Gorskalania. This prolonged conflict, spanning six decades, was instigated by the collapse of the Andalucian Empire, which fragmented the region into a multitude of minor kingdoms susceptible to domination by more powerful entities.
Conflict erupted when the Vebrenka Empire encroached upon the borders of the Kingdom of Destver, setting off a chain reaction of militaristic exploits across the region. As the war dragged on, no single faction managed to secure a decisive victory, leading to a stalemate that persisted for three decades.
After thirty years of continuous warfare, sentiments began to shift, and the concept of peace took root, with the Kingdom of Ezengras and the Kingdom of Harzenkosh initiating peace discussions. This change in strategy gradually influenced the other kingdoms, paving the way for a cessation of hostilities.
The sixty-year mark of the war heralded a turning point when Manelrik Gorskalan, a neutral cartographer from the Kingdom of Perk, stepped forward with a unifying proposition. His neutral stance and background in politics made him an ideal mediator, and his proposition was simple yet revolutionary: to merge the seven kingdoms into a single federative entity, with himself as the central figure to ensure impartiality.
Laborious negotiations ensued, leading to the formation of the Gorskalanian Federation, a name that paid homage to the man whose efforts facilitated peace. The treaty transformed the warring kingdoms into federal states within a unified political framework. Each former kingdom retained its identity and governance structures, now realigned as part of a collective federation. This political restructuring signified the end of the War of the Seven Kingdoms and laid the foundations for a new era of peace and unity in Gorskalania.
Since the formation of the Gorskalanian Federation each kingdom became a federal state but keeping their initial names (Example: Vebrenka Empire is now State of Vebrenka and the Kingdom of Destver is now State of Destver).
