1st Dwarvish-Goblin War

Military action

Aroused by the encroaching Goblins, the Dwarves attempt to drive them from their ancient homeland.

In the year 432, The Goblins founded the city of Sil, meant to be a small trading outpost on the northern side of the mountains. But the dwarves are enraged on principle. Despite the laws of Humans, and attempted intervention by Saramoth, the Dwarvish army marches on and sacks Sil. A Human-Goblin army then marches on, and besieges Kazaram, holding a deadly stalemate for 6 years. When the siege ends, the dwarves surrender on the promise that the goblins will make no settlements further than Sil, and not attempt to establish trade with them.
