The Saxian Civil War

## History

* The Saxian Civil War started on August 23rd 1891, at the result of Tyler VII’s deposing from an armed rebellion from John Henry Richard av Habsburg. Tyler VII fled to Tenchoster where the rebels weren’t strong. After the rebellion broke out, many cities and towns were choosing sides and Parliament broke down, it was anarchy, and it was known as the Magna Anarchae, from September 1 to January 13 1892, and from August 23rd to September 1st, it was known as the 8 deathly days, since everyone was getting murdered on the streets due to the news of the war.

* After the Magna Anarchae ended, both sides managed to gain a Parliament, both halved in size. There was Reformist PM Hans Claussen and Traditionalist PM Johann, 3rd Baronet Berntsen. The leader of the rebellion proclaimed himself King John of the Saxon Empire, and since the entire world had ended slavery, the main powers recognised John as the King. But they never intervened in the war, despite knowing the amount of power they would get if they did. A statement from the PM 3rd Baronet Berntsen said that if the world were to intervene in the war, both sides would team against, PM Claussen never made a statement about it. Tyler VII was preparing his army in Tenchoster, whilst John was already prepared in Edchester, On March 5 1892, the first battle begun at Marson Haste, just 8 miles out of Tenchoster, the Reformists won the battle, and Tyler VII was forced to move out of Tenchoster due to fear of being captured in battle, he fled up north to Middlefors upon Alvadale, he would return to Tenchoster 5 months later for the first battle of Tenchoster. The Reformists had 50,000 men whilst the Traditionalists had 45,000. John knew Tyler VII was a bloodthirsty man and wanted revenge so he went to Hanchester and stayed there whilst John’s younger brother Rupert was leading the Battle. Rupert was captured by General Bernard, and was tortured by him to death, King John then knew that the Traditionalists were wanting his head, so he tried to stay as far away from the battles as possible. Meanwhile, the 70 year old Tyler VII was too senile to lead a conflict, so he got his much younger and fitter cousin, the 44 year old Dylan Wittelsbach of Bavaria onto the scene, Dylan was called from Bavaria to lead the Civil War, since Tyler VII was getting old. Dylan wasn’t as bloodthirsty as his cousin since he never knew the people fighting, so he was mostly against the torturing methods used by Tyler VII, which made King John respect Dylan much more than his older counterpart.

* Meanwhile in Finland, the Reformists had much more support, with only Tylersburg being the one to be Traditionalist, the Battle of Tylersburg in September 1892 ended in the Reformists leaving the region, and the first recording of Tyler VII’s voice was made related to the Civil War saying

* *“Men, Women and Children of Tylersburg, fight on to the end, never surrender to the enemy, even when you are at the standing point, keep calm and carry on. Push the enemy out of Finland and carry on the struggle. Your Empire remains strong!”*
* In 1893, more stuff happened, there was another battle of Tenchoster in April, and the Traditionalists were pushing into Finland, persecuting any Reformist they saw. The Duke of Tylersburg led the Finnish cause, meanwhile in Sweden, the war still raged on, the Second Battle of Tenchoster was on its way and the Traditionalists were on their way to Hanchester. On May 8th 1893, the Traditional Army was on their way to Oilass, a Reformist-controlled town. In June of that same year, the Civil War had multiple fronts, not even 5 years in and the war was almost over 100,000 casulaties
