Line 9:
[[Ethalria (Grand Matriarchy)|Ethalria]] had the Marislian lands and [[Kaltariezh]] as a whole set out to re-establish their naval supremacy on the world stage. Vakhudan wanted the Marislian lands, but with a powerful ally able to fend off Morstaybishlia, he allowed Ethalria free reign. In March of 1795, the first coalition came to fruition and the war began.
 
Ethalria at this point still had a formidable fleet based in Kostörsdel, and immediately rallied it at Chita. Pooling in troops and resources from across the empire, including the Kormistazic principalityAxdelia; Morstaybishlia began mobilising troops to defend the Marislia lands. The Invasion of Marislia (1795-96) by the coalition saw them defeat Morstaybishlia at two big battles; the Battle of Fort Nocturnia and the Battle of Lambertupol; the final battle was fought by sea and land and forced Morstaybishlian forces back behind the Ider River.
 
Just after the Invasion of Marislia, Vakhudan’s forces moved through the Ethalrian-occupied Marislia and around the Kalivian mountains, and began their push southwards towards the fractured Salovian territories, who at this time had formed a number of different nations and city states in the absence of a unifying presence, most notably the city states of Shagonar and Novosibirsk, and the Nelic States.
 
During the time in which thea Kormistazicnew defencedraft forceof conscripts from Axdelia was called upon to aid the Morstaybishlian war efforts, multiple secession movements took the opportunity to declare themselves independent from the empire. The most prominent and powerful were the Andel City State which declared itself independent in 1798, and the Jilkania Republic in the south east.
 
Seeing significant losses on the left and right of the empire within less than a year, the Morstaybishlian Empire called on forces from its colonies. The Viceroys from Luxaria and [[Nevez Kaltariezh]] amassed all of their warships and sent them to Morstaybishlia. Combining with its fleets in Luxaria and Nevez Kaltariezh, Morstaybishlia fought and won against an unprepared Ethalria for Lambertupol, establishing a foothold to the east of the Ider River for the first time since losing it.
 
Ethalria leagued with the newly independent Andel City State and Jilkanian Republic, and began invading the Valerian lands of Morstaybishlia. The new city state blocked off the Morstaybishlians from entering the Valerian lands via the Kormistazic principalityAxdelia, forcing them through the mountain passes. Morstaybishlia was forced through the Zycannes’ narrow mountain passes, and to the knowledge of Ethalria, was fought back and beat them back beyond the [[Zycannes]]. Ethalria made enormous territorial gains after three long years of sieges to Morstaybishlian cities.
 
In 1799, Ethalria beat Morstaybishlia at the Battle of Kirdintayos and began absorbing all of its surrounding lands and cities who surrendered. The South Ethalrian city states that today make up [[Asilica]] neighbouring this now colossal empire felt that their sovereignty was threatened.
