===Partition===

The '''Odurian War''' led to the final partition of the Kingdom of Oustec. The war began ostensibly as an intervention into Oustec by [[Caphiria]] to protect the community of Latin-speaking cities there. The unification of [[Burgundie]] created it as a strong, [[Levantia|Levantine]] colonial power with [[Equatorial Ostiecia|extensive possessions]] bordering Oustec. Its presence sparked a period of fear and panic in [[Caphiria]] regarding [[Levantine Creep]] and the fate of the Latins in the country. The sudden invasion of eastern Oustec on 18 March [[1858]] prompted a counter-invasion of the rest of the country by [[Burgundie]] in July, fearing that [[Caphiria]] might annex the entire rump Kingdom. In August, the estranged [[Arona#Provincial history|Harounan Province]] declared independence from the crumbling Oustec state and sought protection from [[Urcea]], whose forces in [[New Archduchy]] were well positioned to arrive at the Harounan Province in a timely manner. The Oustec, unable to resist invasion from three sides, pulled most of their forces back to their inland capital city of Oduria. Oduria was besieged by [[Burgoignesc Security Forces|Burgoignesc forces]] for much of [[1859]] before finally falling towards the end of the year. The conflict threatened to escalate into a general conflict involving the three [[Occidental]] powers before [[Kiravia]] brokered a peace.

==Extent==

In its earliest formation, Oustec's realm consisted only of islands in the [[Vallos#Capelranco_Archipelago|Capelranco Archipelago]], but its profound wealth and success allowed it to extend its dominion over mainland [[Vallos]]. By [[1598]], it had conquered modern [[Arona]], establishing what would become its longterm borders.
