Rising winds-Iron Mountains War
Rising Winds-Iron Mountains War
The Rising Winds- Iron Mountains war is a protracted war being fought between the Iron Mountains and the Kingdom of the Rising Winds.
The outbreak
On November 5th, 2006 Emperor Owl Bonesteel of the Rising Winds issued a declaration of war against the Empire in response to the territorial expansion of the Rosetta Pact as well as an alleged kidnapping attempt against the crown. Because of the sheer geographic size of the two kingdoms, most of the fighting has been carried out by the Empire's eastern principality, the Frostlands, as well as various other chapters near the border of the two Kingdoms. Over time, although no formal peace treaty was signed, distance as a result of changing geography in the midwest has put an end to the war by 2015.
