Among those reasons is their claim of lack-luster effort during the Norland-Eston war, that the 3 regions we gained in that war were extortion and a betrayal of their friendship, and that the manner in which they took Amriel and Elost was unsatisfactory.

The Norland-Minas Ithil War
Events leading up to the War
The causes of the Norland-Minas Ithil war are rooted in the wars the preceded it. It is in these prior wars that Norland has claimed cause for their war. Norland and Eston were at war with Norland losing the war. The war was started by Norland but Norland was losing ground. In exchange for several regions, Minas Ithil led by King Dead Angel3 joined the war. When the war concluded Minas Ithil had gained Amdor, Amriel, Elost and Mormaroth. Mormaroth was given to Norland by Minas Ithil while Eston gave Barad Riel to Norland. Following this, Minas Ithil went to war against Abington along with several other nations. As the reasons for this are unrelated the war against Abington will not be discussed here.
Minas Ithil ended its involvement in the war against Abington as the Northern Federation was announced. The Northern Federation consisted of Eston, Norland and Barony of Makar. The Northern Federation soon issued demands for the regions of Amdor, Amriel, and Elost to be surrendered. The demand came with the threat of the combined forces of the Northern Federation attacking Minas Ithil. Minas Ithil protested but let Norland take the regions without defending itself (Eston reclaimed Amdor). Despite gaining what it had desired and the promises made in doing so, Norland continued to build up its forces in preparation to attack Minas Ithil.
Declaration of War
In January of '07, Norland declared war with Barony of Makar declaring war soon after. In declaring war Norland declared that it was a 'Holy War' decreed by their Gods. They stated their goal of creating a greater 'Hasland' by laying claim to Winwich, Dunstoke, and York. Additionally, they declared that King Dead Angel3 needed to be removed. A multitude of reasons have been offered for why King Dead Angel3's removal from office is required. Among those reasons is their claim of lack-luster effort during the Norland-Eston war, that the 3 regions we gained in that war were extortion and a betrayal of their friendship, and that the manner in which they took Amriel and Elost was unsatisfactory. Norland also has called for the destruction of the religion of Athonlaurism which they refer to as 'sun-worshipers'.
