Fall of Cana: Difference between revisions

The capture of the western port city continued the general decline of the Regal Navy's ability to interdict allied forces in the Julia Bay region, and opened the western coast to raiding and small scale amphibious assaults by allied troops. It also opened the Urcean plain to attacks from the southwest, as Canaery had little separating it from the Archduchy of Urceopolis save unguarded river crossings. The capture of Cana fundamentally undermined the Regal Army's defensive perimeter it had established in the northern part of the country, and by the end of 1901 the Regency had been reduced to a territory roughly corresponding to the Archduchy. Additionally, Cana's possession by the allies allowed for a strong base of operations from which the remaining Regal territory could be blockaded.
