Despite a largely succesful transition from the [[East Gothic faith]] to [[Catholic Church|Catholicism]], settlers from the [[Holy Levantine Empire]] raised ethnic and cultural tensions throughout the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. The chiefly [[Bergendii]] settlers established new villages or became wealthy burghers in the new cities settled by the crusaders, while the indigenous Gothic population were entrenched in serfdom under their new Levantine Catholic nobility. Following a number of smaller uprisings, this ultimately concluded in the [[First Potato War]] (1556-1557) and the [[Yonderian Peasants' War]] of the mid-1640s, widespread uprisings throughout Yonderre both of which ultimately failed. Yonderre was the main combatant of the [[Likedealers]] during the [[Golden Age of Vandarch Piracy]] in the late 18th century, policing the south [[Vandarch]]. Yonderre had its final civil war, the [[Second Potato War]], between 1787-1788, which resulted in relaxed taxation and granted more rights to the peasantry. Yonderre prospered throughout the 19th century in what is known as the [[Yonderian Golden Age]], a time of exceptional creative production in the fields of culture and science. Yonderre persued a strict policy of neutrality throughout the [[Great Wars]], although more than 1.5 million Yonderians [[Yonderian volunteers to Burgundie in the Great War|served in the Burgoignesc Foreign Legion as volunteers]]. Yonderre joined the [[Levantia and Odoneru Treaty Association]] in the aftermath of the [[Second Great War]] and the [[Yonderian Defence Force]] has partaken in numerous peacekeeping operations around the world since then, notably [[Operation Khyzer Rhykh]] and [[the Deluge]]. | Despite a largely succesful transition from the [[East Gothic faith]] to [[Catholic Church|Catholicism]], settlers from the [[Holy Levantine Empire]] raised ethnic and cultural tensions throughout the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.
