    Peranku and Ferland vs Ashr
    Military: War

    Right after the events of Norvyth, the neighboring country of Ashr (now Ashrem) switched from a Monarchy to a Council-run Democracy, giving Peranku and Ferland the perfect opportunity to start another war with Peranku's newfound power. Ashr was facing a time of corrupt rulership, an extreme lack of food due to drought, and was generally doing poorly. This build up lead to a 14 year war, in which Ashr was devastated, and forced to give much of it's land to the other 2 countries.
