War of the Opposition

The War of the Opposition was a conflict fought between year 85 and year 89 by members of the Opposition alliance and the Paerathian Empire. This was the first of two conflicts made to depose Emperor Sarnae from the Empire of Aeson, and replace the Paerathian Code with a different Code of Aeson. The Opposition was disadvantaged by the greater quality of armies the Paerathians possessed, and lost the crucial Battle of Kasakae. The battle caused more than a quarter of the alliance members to pull out and make peace with the Paerathians, while those who stayed became polarized between to different ideas of who should succeed to the Imperial Throne when and if the war was won.
