Fhainnin Civil War

The Fhainnin Civil War was a multi-party civil conflict which took place within the Kingdom of Fhainnlannachaeran from 1906-1909 mainly between the Republicans, lead by Callac Cananach's faction, and the monarchy of Fhainnlannachaeran, largely under the umbrella of the Volunteer Armies for the Restoration of the Throne and the Royal Army of the Fhainn. It was sparked by a series of poor rulers, a disastrous defeat in the 1987-88 Fourth Kin War, which was expected to be an easy victory, subsequent crackdowns on speech and association, and the refusal of the monarchy to extend the voting franchise for Vicars - local governors - to all landed men rather than only nobility.
