Valtaran Civil War

From Alathra Wiki

Overview

The Valtaran Civil War was a 20-year-long ordeal that began when King Enriq Valtara III decided to name his bastard son Gem Valtara as his successor, an event that occurred before his legitimate son King Robert Valtara I was born. Due to this Ignacio Valtara, King Enriq´s brother decided to take lords that were loyal to him and rebel. After twenty years of conflict, which devastated Valtara almost to destruction, in the largest battle of the war both Enriq and Ignacio died in battle and a month later all the lords on the royalist side (those who wanted to keep the bloodline pure) surrendered on the conditions that the then Prince Robert would be crowned as king. This was agreed upon and the reconstruction began.
