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.
