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 {{wpl|Jeune École}} by the [[Navy of Burgundie]]. | 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]].
