→Rise of the First Kormistazic Empire
Line 117:
Over time war between Kormistazm and the Soltic Lordship would flare up over the status of the Teba Empire and Northern Lyr Valley. Eventually the Lordship would slowly succumb to mounting losses against the more populous, industrious and fervent Kormistazic empire, and suffered debilitating territorial losses. Despite previous conflict, the Soltics attempted to form an alliance with the western kingdoms of the Maltervenian empire in order to counter Kormistazm. Distrusting the Soltics, this eventually resulted in an opportunistic conquest of the Molvian corridor by the Maltervenians which was only partly repelled. Despite this hardship, the open sea access afforded the Soltic empire strong trade links with Impelanza and Northeast Aurora which the less powerful Kormistazic navy had great difficulty intercepting, keeping their core territory strong for several centuries. After a watchful peace of approximately five decades, the newly coronated Empress X̂alinn led the fourth and final Solto-Kormistazic war in 75 BCE, rallying an enormous, well equipped army for the purpose. A fast, brutal campaign was launched with forces carving paths down the valleys towards the coast, converging on the major population centers such as the capital of Xoltaan and the trade hub of Aruliqea. X̂alinn personally lead the siege of Xoltaan, the city breaking after sustained bombardment from catapult forced a begrudging surrender from the Soltic emperor Iruta V. Aruliqea, however, withstood siege for years with supplies brought in reliably from the ocean along the Ueclid river. With strong footholds along the north coast, however, the Kormistazic navy gained a much stronger presence and was able to cut off the city from its supply lines, forcing its surrender in 70 BCE and marking the official end of the Soltic Empire. As part of the surrender and as a show of charity, some Soltic territory was divided into largely autonomous Kormistazic vassals.
