Imperial Wars

The Imperial Wars or the Imperial War for Conquest are the names given to the longest conflict in the history of Aenia. A continent spanning war started by Leanna II the Conqueror in 1356 after establishing the Empire of Aldvire. Her goal was to unite the world, believing that when the gods returned the world would be thrown into turmoil, and the peoples of the world needed to be united if they stood a chance of surviving.
