The North Levantine Front, also referred to as the Fifth [[Fhainn-Fiann Kin Wars]] and contemporarily as the Great War of Gaelic Liberation, was a theater of the [[Great War]] centered on Northern [[Levantia]] from mid-1935 to 1942. Following the escalation of the [[Holy Levantine Empire]]'s civil war in [[Deria]], [[Faneria]] declared war on [[Fiannria]] and invaded the latter's coastal regions along the Vandarch, followed by a brief rapid advance into central Fiannria. Faneria intended to force Fiannria to assent to both governments' annexation into a united Gaelic state under the Fhainnin republican model, but failed to reach the metropolitan core around [[Brídhavn]]. Fiannria's government refused to negotiate, with both countries fighting to a stalemate in the lower regions in central-western Fiannria and mountain campaigns in the north and southern borderlands. Fighting was slowed in the north and center during winter due to frosts and in late spring due to runoff creating marshy conditions. Faneria additionally seized territories from Prevalia and Caergwynn during the war. After the eventual loss of most of its gained territories in northern Fiannria, the destruction of the vast majority of its [[Nordska|Nordskan]] and [[Kilikas Sea|Kilikas]] fleets, a loss of faith in the war in Faneria, a new front being opened by the invasion of Lyukquar by Caergwynn, and repeated landings and repulsions along Faneria's coastlines by other Fiannrian-aligned nations, Faneria conditionally surrendered in the Second Treaty of Gaoth on March 1st, 1942.

[[Knights of the Realm|Knight of the Realm]] and [[Castellans of Yonderre|Castellan]] '''Siegmar Götz Eberhard von Willing und zu Siegmarsburg''' was a [[Yonderre|Yonderian]] [[Knights of the Realm|Knight of the Realm]], mercenary and writer of the middle- and late sixteenth century. He was born around 1522 into the lesser noble family von Willing in [[Koop]], [[Volardie]].


Siegmar led the mercenary band ''[[Black Company|die Schwarze Kompanie]]'' (the Black Company) which famously took part in the [[Great Confessional War]] and countless conflicts all through Levantia in the latter half of the sixteenth century. During a career lasting 52 years from 1537 to 1589, Siegmar fought several wars and took part in numerous personal feuds of which 18 were his own against such people as the bishop of [[Toubourg]], the cities [[Sainte-Cateline]], [[Stretton]] and [[Castruppe]] and even the [[Grand Count of Yonderre]] [[Joanus II de Donne]]. He was excommunicated by the [[Catholic Church]] twice and declared lawless thrice by the [[Grand Duke of Yonderre|Grand Counts of Yonderre]] [[Joanus II de Donne]] and [[Falco I Sentinelleau]].<ref>von Willing, Siegmar: ''My Feuds and Life'', originally published 1609, [[Collinebourg Gazette]], 1981.</ref> Siegmar had the castle Siegmarsburg constructed in 1557, and lived there until his death in 1607.<ref>Holzinger, Frank: ''Reichsrittern'', Cargeau Publishing, [[Castruppe]], pg. 16-19. 2001</ref>
==Background==


Siegmar specified the exact recipe for [[Chevalier Vert]] in 1602 which remains in use to this day.<ref>von Carlsberg, Jacob: ''A Comprehensive History of the Toubourg Brewery'', [[Toubourg]], pg. 3. 2014.</ref><ref>von Willing, Siegmar: ''My Feuds and Life'', [[Collinebourg Gazette]], pg. 84. 1981.</ref> Siegmar warning the Bishop of [[Toubourg]] not to "fornicate or else discover" is thought to be the earliest known use of the term "fuck around and find out". During the [[Great Confessional War]], Siegmar also coined the term "[[Anglei's final warning]]", a proverb still used meaning a repeated, empty threat. Siegmar left behind a manuscript for an autobiography still in print as ''My Feuds and Life'' which covers as diverse topics as his childhood, military tactics, poetry and brewing recipes.
====Pan-Gael Movement====
==Titulation and name==
From 1566 Siegmar von Willing carried both the titles ''Reichsritter'' ([[Knights of the Realm|Knight of the Realm]]) and ''Burgherr'' ([[Castellans of Yonderre|Castellan]]) as well as the suffix ''zu Siegmarsburg'', signifying his lordship over Siegmarsburg. His full name and title in the [[East Gothic language]] at his time of death was ''Reichsritter und Burgherr Siegmar Götz Eberhard von Willing und zu Siegmarsburg'', in [[Burgoignesc language|Burgoignesc]] ''Chevaleuer de Royaume et Castelain Siegmar Götz Eberhard de Willing et de Siegmarbourg''.<ref>Also sometimes spelled ''Sigmarre Goethes Everard de Villinge'' in some [[Burgoignesc language]] manuscripts.</ref>
==Biography==
===Early life===
Siegmar Götz Eberhard von Willing was born {{circa}} 1522 as the third child of five and only son of Killian von Willing ({{circa}} 1481-1537) and Margarete von Thessen (d. 1550) in the city of [[Koop]], [[Vollardie County|Vollardie]], [[Yonderre]]. As Captain of the Town Watch, Killian von Willing had sufficient funds to pay for an education for Siegmar who was thus made literate and taught of history, poetry and of warfare. In 1537 aged 15 Siegmar entered the service of Steward Giles of [[Willing]] as a guardsman and partook in fights against banditry. By 1540, Siegmar had left the services of Giles of Willing and instead served the [[Count of Vollardie]], and by 1542 had joined the ranks of the [[Knights of the Realm]].  By 1545, Siegmar formed the mercenary outfit that would eventually become the [[Black Company]].
===Black Company and First Potato War===
[[File:Götz-eiserne-hand1.jpg|thumb|The second iron prosthetic hand worn by Siegmar von Willing from 1562]]
Having loaned 500 [[Taler|Levantine Talers]] from a wealthy [[Koop]] merchant, Siegmar along with [[Knights of the Realm]] [[Giles de Gabion]] and [[Henri de Famichez]] recruited 25 men of various backgrounds to be their retinue.<ref>"A small loan of 500 Talers" from the chapter "The Art of the Steel". von Willing, Siegmar: ''My Feuds and Life'', [[Collinebourg Gazette]], pg. 16. 1981.</ref> These formed the core of what would eventually become the [[Black Company]]. Initially primarily performing escort services for wealthy merchants travelling between cities, chasing high profile bounties and protecting settlements from banditry, the Black Company grew in size to be a 100 strong by 1549. With his trusted Lieutenants [[Giles de Gabion]] and [[Henri de Famichez]] each able to handily lead detachments of the force, the [[Black Company]] was able to cover several tasks and duties at once, greatly increasing revenue and in turn their numbers and strength.


In 1556, during the [[First Potato War]], Siegmar and his mercenary army fought for [[Grand Duke of Yonderre|Grand Count of Yonderre]] [[Joanus II de Donne]]. During the siege of the city of Seewang, he lost his right arm at the wrist when a nearby cannon with a clogged barrel exploded, sending shrapanel everywhere. The wounded Siegmar was able to make his way to the rear where he received life saving first aid. In the following years, he had two mechanical prosthetic iron replacements made. The first iron hand was a more simple device, claimed to have been made by a [[Koop]] blacksmith and a saddle maker. The second, more famous prosthetic hand was capable of holding objects from a shield or reins to a quill. While recuperating from his horrific injury, Siegmar used a not-inconsequential part of his wealth to begin construction of his future home Siegmarsburg in Upper Eringau, [[Vandarcôte County]].
====Fourth Kin War====


===Urcean War of Religion===
====Fhainnin Civil War====
Having made a surprisingly sound recovery, Siegmar von Willing rejoined his [[Black Company]] in the Autumn of 1558. In his absence, the Black Company, led by his Lieutenants [[Giles de Gabion]] and [[Henri de Famichez]], had signed up with the [[House de Weluta]]'s Catholic forces of the [[Holy League]]. The [[Black Company]] at this time had around 500 men under arms of which more than 50 were [[Knights of the Realm]]. Siegmar was selected to command the siege of [[Urceopolis (City)|Urceopolis]] which took place during the Spring and Summer of 1559 and was placed in command of a number of [[Holy League]] troops to accomplish it. The siege was broken off however by a relief force led by [[King Donnchad III]] combined with defenders of [[Urceopolis (City)|Urceopolis]] sallying forth. When the [[Holy League]] troops under his command began to break, Siegmar ordered a retreat to the [[Urce River]]. Siegmar led his forces north in the direction towards [[Anglei]], fighting protestant warbands encountered and mounting raids into protestant cities on the way, capturing and demanding ransoms for various lesser nobles while wintering in [[Ænglasmarch]]. In response to the news that the protestant King Donnchad had the Catholic Prince Aedanicus drawn, quartered, and beheaded in 1560, the [[Black Company]] crossed into Ionia once more and assaulted and looted the city Carsaila as a token of retaliation.

===Autobiography===
[[File:Ms.Thott.290.2º - fightbook by Hans Talhoffer.JPG|thumb|A scene concerning sieges from the original manuscript of ''Lebenserfahrungen und Erinnerungen des Reichsritters Siegmarns von Willing'', written and illustrated by Siegmar von Willing]]
Siegmar was in the process of finishing his autobiography when he died; the manuscript was first published in 1609 as ''Lebenserfahrungen und Erinnerungen des Reichsritters Siegmarns von Willing'' (Life experiences and memoirs of Knight of the Realm Siegmar von Willing) by his widow, having been minimally edited by a [[Gabion]] scribe. The original manuscript is known to be one of the few works to have been saved from the collections of the [[University of Collinebourg]] which was otherwise lost in the [[Great Fire of Collinebourg]] in 1728. A 1771 reprint entitled ''Mein Fehd und Leben'' (My Feuds and Life) became the new de facto title of the work for future prints. The book received considerable interest during the early [[Yonderian Golden Age]] of the 1820s which sparked a renewed interest in Siegmar's life. Yonderian playwright [[Hieronymus d'Olbourg]] wrote the play "''Siegmar the Iron-Handed''" in 1833 based on a [[East Gothic language|Gothic]] 1825 print of the book.<ref>Häckberg, Viktor C.G.:''Olbourg - a biography'', [[University of Toubourg]], pg. 14 + 61-62. 2004.</ref>
==Issue==
Siegmar von Willing married thrice; to Helena Carlstochter (m. 1539-1544 (her death from childbirth)), Henriette Mathiastochter (m. 1545-1549 (divorced)) and finally Anne-Marie of Schöntal (m. 1553-1607 (his death)). Siegmar von willing had nine children between 1540-1569, three sons and six daughters. One son, Killian, was stillborn while a daughter, Karolina, died soon after birth. Two children, Eberhard and Simona, died before the age of three.

The North Levantine Front, also referred to as the Fifth Fhainn-Fiann Kin Wars and contemporarily as the Great War of Gaelic Liberation, was a theater of the Great War centered on Northern Levantia from mid-1935 to 1942. Following the escalation of the Holy Levantine Empire's civil war in Deria, Faneria declared war on Fiannria and invaded the latter's coastal regions along the Vandarch, followed by a brief rapid advance into central Fiannria. Faneria intended to force Fiannria to assent to both governments' annexation into a united Gaelic state under the Fhainnin republican model, but failed to reach the metropolitan core around Brídhavn. Fiannria's government refused to negotiate, with both countries fighting to a stalemate in the lower regions in central-western Fiannria and mountain campaigns in the north and southern borderlands. Fighting was slowed in the north and center during winter due to frosts and in late spring due to runoff creating marshy conditions. Faneria additionally seized territories from Prevalia and Caergwynn during the war. After the eventual loss of most of its gained territories in northern Fiannria, the destruction of the vast majority of its Nordskan and Kilikas fleets, a loss of faith in the war in Faneria, a new front being opened by the invasion of Lyukquar by Caergwynn, and repeated landings and repulsions along Faneria's coastlines by other Fiannrian-aligned nations, Faneria conditionally surrendered in the Second Treaty of Gaoth on March 1st, 1942.
