The Robertian Civil War was an attempted coup staged by a large portion of the Robertian Army that was unhappy with the nation's decision to not pursue further conflict with Gazenderria following their violent war of independence.

The beginning of the war saw tremendous organisation and strength from the [][][] army due to the fact that they had been led by many respected army generals. The Free Republic of Robertia had to scramble in order to establish a new government after the collapse of the monarchy, due to the Gazenderrian War of Independence. and establish order amongst the broken nation.

The [][][] had seen many early victories in the war given the size and supply of their army but this would eventually change in the Free Robertian Republic's favour given the industry and agriculture that the nation had access to. The [][][] had originally tried to enforce policies on the captured territories that would require farmers to send massive portions of food to the army and for factories to convert to being solely militarily oriented. This caused mass starvation and and prices to skyrocket due to the limited supply of goods. Eventually the [][][] had resulted to stealing entire harvests, killing and shaming any farmers who did not comply, this became a part of Robertian history that many wish to forget.

## Combatants

#### The Free Robertian Republic

A coalition between the northern cities of the island allowed for a sizeable force to crush to Southern radicals.

[][][](Placeholder)

A disjointed army composed of traitor regiments, from the Robertian Army, in support of a purging of the local Gazenderrian population.

### Non Combatants

#### The Independent State of Mavle

Due to the major political turmoil at home, the island of Mavle decided it would declare its independence regardless of its barely recognisable population of only a couple of 10s of thousands. This happened successfully due to the fact that nobody from the mainland had heard word of such news. Mavle was later assimilated back into the country after the civil war peacefully and was offered a place in parliament for the Jarl of Mavle, he accepted the offer.
