Soon after the Unification Ceremony, tensions between Kaltar and the new Grand Salovian Republic began to sprout, with the primary issue being the newly-independent Baykalia. Both nations claimed Baykalia to be a legitimate part of each other's territory, with the two nearing the brink of war over the disputed claim. The five years after the Unification Ceremony, Baykalia experienced a period of mass poverty and starvation throughout the area, known in Baykalia as the [[Baykalia#Age of Fatigue|Age of Fatigue]]. Thousands died of starvation and disease, and the leader of the fledgling nation struck a deal with the Salovian leader in which Baykalia would be annexed by Salovia, but it would require Baykalia to have more say in the nation's affairs than the rest of Salovia. Another notable series of events during the Era of Unrest was [[Oscrelia|Oscrelia's]] push into Salovian territory, the nation acquiring large swaths of land directly south of it. The [[Crusade of the Bandits]], a series of bandit attacks taking place on the far desert reaches of Salovia, had also sprung up in the [[Great Auroran Desert]], as well a short-lived war between Codex and Salovia over the area just east of modern-day Tuvaltastan, known as the [[War of the Crescent Coast]].
