Soon after Philip took the throne relations with Venercia deteriorated. In 575, the Empire of Venercia fell, leaving the Kingdom of Venercia broken. Just twenty years into his reign there was an assassination attempt. Venercian assassins where hired and sent to Ieshia to kill the New king. Venercia wanted him dead because King Aspain was his nephew, they feared that Philip would take his throne. This caused Philip to take military action against the Venercians. In 620 The kingdom of Ieshia declared war on the Kingdom of Venercia. Philip created three main armies, comprised of calvary, spearmen, archers, and infantry. Philips army regiment one was comprised of approximately fifty-six-thousand troops. They were sent to take the control of the Temple of Theomora, a powerful religious sight.

His final and third regiment was sent to protect a major city along the border called Ethsorious. If Philip could capture this city, it would change the tide of the war.

### Ieshian-Venercian War

In November of 620, Venercian and Ieshian troops clashed at Ethsorious, Philips third regiment outnumbered the Venercians but, they took attrition, and many of the troops were hungry, lots died. This was a Disastrous defeat for Philip. his fourty-six-thousand troop army was just killed. In Theomora, Philips troops had defeated the garrison at the temple. But, philip knew that Aspain wasn't stupid. Aspain was a powerful, and smart military leader. Philip gathered his nearby troops to create a massive army. the fifty-six thousand regiment soon turned into a one hundred and seventeen thousand troops. One of the largest battles will happen here, tweleve days later. on November 30th Philips new thirty-first regiment, and the venercian seventy-six regiment would fight. Philip will win this battle, but at a cost. Philips remaining troops would move through all small towns, plundering, and burning down cities, and trade routes. Philips plan to choke the Venercians dry was failing and falling apart. His grand plan, was falling apart. The war had cost him everything, Ieshia was now in economic crisis. Battles would rage across the Ieshian-Venercian border, one battle would become a major factor to turn the tide of war to the Ieshian's side. The battle of Morrewood, where Philips third regiment would attack and destroy the Venercia's army, leaving a direct path the capital.

The Battle of Morrewood was a great success for Ieshia.

Many more battles would happen, but after Morrewood, Venercia began to fall, the death of King was the final straw. In June of 625, Venercia surrendered to Ieshian government.
