This period of uncontested rule of the island by the Dominion of Vorpest would be short lived, however, as 1909 saw the brewing of internal conflicts within the Ducal Federation surrounding the election of a successor to Emperor Alfred II. Though the colonial territories had no say on who would take the mantle of Emperor, debates over succession would coincide with disagreements amongst the states comprising Vistaraland over the nation's continued involvement in the Great War. The [[War of Imperial Succession]], as it came to be known, threw the colonial administrations into disarray over who held the legitimate claim to the [[See of Supremacy]] and, therefore, what allegiance they had in the overarching conflict.

Blokkarim, which had only recently joined the Empire and resided in waters which would be difficult to maintain supremacy over for the Imperial Powers, would side with the majority of the other colonial administrations in expressing support for the claim of Tyrene van Molebaai.
The people of Blokkarim, which had only recently joined the Empire and resided in waters which would be difficult to maintain supremacy over for the Imperial Powers, would side with the majority of the other colonial administrations in expressing support for the claim of Tyrene van Molebaai. This would cause a number of difficulties for the island's military administration, whose orders from mainland Vistaraland were from the High Command in Vierbak, which remained loyal to the House of Sereena, who had crowned Emperor Stijn I in spite of a lack of consensus in the Ducal Council. After considerable infighting within the territorial administration, it was decided the island would not hold official stance on the legitimate Imperial Government, and would receive orders from Sint Arend until the matter was resolved.


The [[Norgsveldet|Norgsveltian]] occupation of Vorpest would further exacerbate complications in governing the island, and the Vistari military garrison would eventually begin to coordinate the territory's administration with the Government of Ankbhaja , establishing a civilian administration in Kartesolt to conduct the internal affairs of the island for the duration of the civil conflict in Vistaraland.
Due to this policy, the [[Norgsveldet|Norgsveltian]] occupation of Vorpest would radically exacerbate complications in governing the island, and the Vistari military garrison would eventually begin to coordinate the territory's administration with the Government of Ankbhaja , establishing a civilian administration in Kartesolt to conduct the internal affairs of the island for the duration of the civil conflict in Vistaraland.
