The '''Second Caroline War''' was a conflict between [[Urcea]] and the principalities of the [[Kingdom of Dericania]] over the issue of [[House de Weluta]]'s domination over the [[Holy Levantine Empire]]. Beginning as a relatively small revolt in the Kingdom of Dericania in 1796, the war continued to escalate until Emperor Louis X's death in 1798, when the rebelling princes convened the [[Collegial Electorate]] for the first time since the 1740s and elected a rival Emperor, Mauricio, the Duke of Martilles. Urcean advances early in the war stalled as Emperor Louis X was ejected from Dericania in 1797. The war was fought mostly to a draw in the [[Grand Duchy of Carolina]] until 1802, when Mauricio ejected the Royal Army from Carolina. In 1803, the Imperial Army decisively defeated the [[Imperial and Royal Army (Urcea)|Royal Army]] in the Battle of the Northgate, but were unable to advance on [[Urceopolis (City)|Urceopolis]] due to a prolonged guerrilla effort of [[Ionian Mountains|Ionian]] Highlanders lead by Crown Prince Niall. In 1805, the Imperial Army was ejected from the Urcean heartlands, bringing negotiators to Venceia where peace was reached. Among other terms, the [[Grand Duchy of Carolina]] was separated from Urcea. | |||
The war ended nearly more than a century of [[House de Weluta]] control over the Imperial Throne and ended a lengthy period of Urcean domination of the Holy Levantine Empire that began after the [[Great Confessional War]]. The war began a lengthy period of antagonism between Urcea and the Empire called the [[Recess of the Julii]] that would endure, according to some historians, until the immediate run-up to the [[Second Great War]]. The conflict also inaugurated a lengthy period of reform, liberalization, and modernization in Urcea, the efforts of which culminated in Urcea's victory in the [[Third Caroline War]], which permanently attached Carolina to Urcea. The conflict also began a period of Derian nationalist awakening, a process that would largely be complete after the Third Caroline War and subsequent Fraternal Wars. | The war ended nearly more than a century of [[House de Weluta]] control over the Imperial Throne and ended a lengthy period of Urcean domination of the Holy Levantine Empire that began after the [[Great Confessional War]].
