The Gallian Wars were a series of wars fought between Great Levantia and the peoples of Gaul between 56-43 BC. The Gallian Wars was waged between the Princeps Gaius Stephanus Pictor and his armies of Great Levantia and the peoples of Gaul, making up modern-day Fiannria among other states. The wars spanned over 12 years of fighting and aggressive Levantine campaigns against the Celtic tribes who fought to defend their homeland.
The peoples of Gaul, while comparable in military strength to Great Levantia swayed back and forth between a united enemy of the empire and an internally divided coalition that broke as easy as it formed. This resulted in what was called the Four Gallian Wars or Campaigns, the first three fighting for control of the to be Levantine province, and the final war to put down the general Gallian Revolt that sparked that would mark the end of the wars and pacification of the province as remaining resistance either assimilated, fell back into the mountains and highlands or went further west into the unconquered territories.
Much of the story of the Gallian Wars comes from Pictor himself in his own account of the war and from Levantine historian (TBD) in the 36 AD during the early Potentate. Accurate numbers of the forces during any given campaign, and how many were killed and enslaved still vary and are debated by modern historians, but historians agree the wars were exceptionally brutal and intense, and bloody affair. Besides the territorial impacts of the war, it had massive repercussions on the Great Levantine economy as the majority of slaves and their descendants from the period after the war are thought to have been captured during the war, changing the complexion of slavery and the slave economy in Great Levantia.
