Despite the early military failures of the Royal Army, the Gassavelians were diplomatically and economically isolated. The [[Royal Navy (Urcea)|Royal Navy]] began a blockade of the region, and neighboring authorities in [[Faramount]] fully complied with the embargo due to their own fears of a Gassavelian uprising in their territory. With the [[Urcean frontier]] to the north of Gassavelia and [[Canaery]] and its associated duchies to the west, Gassavelia was encircled. With little foreign trade options, famine in the territory grew worse. This lead to many extremely violent raids for food into Canaery, which raised enmity between both sides. | Despite the early military failures of the Royal Army, the Gassavelians were diplomatically and economically isolated.

After four hard years of war in [[Gassavelia]] and subsequent efforts to ease tensions there, many leaders (including Patrick I) in [[Urceopolis (City)|Urceopolis]] began to pay greater attention to the peripheral parts of the King's domains, namely those of Gassavelia, the [[Ænglasmarch#Duchy_of_Holchester|Duchy of Holchester]] and [[Ænglish people|Ænglish]] territories, and the somewhat incorporated [[Electorate of Canaery]], and how the state administered these areas. Also coming into focus was the [[Duchy of Transurciana]], which had been the focus of dispute between the [[Pope]] and [[Apostolic King of Urcea|Apostolic King]] during the medieval period; though the power struggle had largely subsided by the 15th century in favor of the Crown, the Duchy still enjoyed significant legal privileges and autonomy, and its nobility still retained significant power where it had otherwise faded throughout the Kingdom. | After four hard years of war in [[Gassavelia]] and subsequent efforts to ease tensions there, many leaders (including Patrick I) in [[Urceopolis (City)|Urceopolis]] began to pay greater attention to the peripheral parts of the King's domains, namely those of Gassavelia, the [[Ænglasmarch#Duchy_of_Holchester|Duchy of Holchester]] and [[Ænglish people|Ænglish]] territories, and the somewhat incorporated [[Electorate of Canaery]], and how the state administered these areas.
