Second Great War

The Second Great War was considered the worst war experience by Kemen in all of history. It was short lived, beginning in 1226 and ending in 1271, but it was brutal. The casuality rate exceeded that of the First Great War, and the means of battle were more advanced than ever before.

The war began upon the slaughter of the Gyptian Emperor, Mahdi Herone, by Dwarven forces bombarding the Emperor's castle. This set off the series of events that would come to be known the Second Great War. Some of these more major events would be various races coming in an attempt to help, only dragging them farther into the situation.

Pre-war
Prior to the assassination of Mahdi Herone, tension was building up between the Gyptians of South Abalene, and the Dwarves of South Granger. Much strife was happening in the Crimson Sea, actually giving in its name, named after the blood that was spilled in the sea between South Abalene and South Granger. Political trade issues, vague foreign affairs between the two powers, and general racism likely were the cause of friction that led to the Emperor's assassination.

Post-War
Currently living in the post-war era, some tension between Gyptians and Dwarves still exist. In places like Bastion where they're strongly interracial, not much racism occurs, but opinionated forces still remain the homelands of either race.

Since the war, there's been no major political strife or problems that could lead to something drastic like a Great War. In fact, all of Kemen seems to be living prosperously and peacefully.
