Cagilan Empire/Ansalle Accord

From BattleMaster Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

At the end of the Cagilan Empire's war with Falasan, Imperial troops and the military forces of the Empire's allies were occupying the southern Falasan city of Barad Falas with more troops waiting in Elroth and Anfalas to assault their second. During this time, Falasan's Duke Maniac of Barad Galdor changed the alliegence of his Duchy to that of the Empire. With the assistance of the then Duchess Renee of Nida (now Duchess of Barad Falas) Duke Maniac was put in the position that he must step down. Other lords took longer to remove, it is surprising to note. Negotiations were being hammered back and forth until the Ansalle Accord, drafted by Ambassador Neleron Carna and signed by Prime Minister Shanka was put and accepted by Falasan. The latter have since breached the Accords in several key clauses and the redeclaration of war, as promised in this document, has begun.
