Background

Sarpedon Theater

Global Theater

Emirati War

Between Burgundie, the United Pukhgundian Emirates, the Trucial States, and the Emirate of Kagazi. 1871-1897. 1880s Observation balloons, the first recorded use of a lighter than air vehicle to drop a device for a military purpose. Dropped a fused grenade.

Capetian revolution

'97 Rising in Urcea

Washakara War

War of St. Brendan's Strait

The culmination of the Kiro-Burgoignesc Wars, the War of St. Brendan's Strait was a conflict between Burgundie and Kiravia to settle territorial disputes in the confluences of the Odoneru Ocean, Tainean Sea, and Polynesian Sea, or as landlubbers would call it, the island chains between Crona and Sarpedon. The war lasted for a year and a half, from March of 1895 through August of 1896. Due to the equatorial climate and the advancement of technology, it was fought year-round, one of the first wars to do so in the Occidental canon, and is considered, along with the '97 Rising to mark the beginning of truly mechanized/modern warfare. It saw the first use of machine guns used by occidentals, against occidentals, solidified the preference for the pre-dreadnought over ironclads for naval ships of the line for "big gun navies" like Kiravia and Urcea, and the development of Jeune École by the Navy of Burgundie.
