The '''Cronan Beaver War''', known in [[the Cape]] as the ''' | The '''Cronan Beaver War''', known in [[the Cape]] as the '''Great Beaver War''', was a conflict between [[Urcea]] and [[Kiravia]] in southeastern [[Crona]] during the 1740s. Due to multiple [[Urcea|Urcean]] commitments in the ongoing [[War of the Caroline Succession]], Kiravia sensed an opportunity to seize [[Julian Belt|Urcea's Cronan colonies]] and declared war. The war was largely fought on the [[Odoneru]] with limited land skirmishes in Urcean territory in Crona. By the end of the fighting, most of the Urcean settlements were blockaded by sea with the exception of [[New Archduchy]], which was separated from the other territories of the [[Julian Belt]]. The Urceans, largely outmatched by Kiravian colonial naval forces, decided to avoid further fighting and sued for peace. [[Urcea]] ceded the colonies in exchange for solidifying the boundaries of [[New Archduchy]] and recognition of Leo IV as [[Emperor of the Levantines]], a subject of the War of the Caroline Succession. | ||
Despite being a limited engagement colonial exchange, the War has taken an outsized importance within [[the Cape|Capetian]] history as a major world event in which [[Urcean people|Urceans]] were forever ejected from southeast [[Crona]]. It also laid the groundwork for the establishment of [[Paulastra]], which formed in part from the territory of the [[Julian Belt]]. | Despite being a limited engagement colonial exchange, the War has taken an outsized importance within [[the Cape|Capetian]] history as a major world event in which [[Urcean people|Urceans]] were forever ejected from southeast [[Crona]].
