Vyaparan Civil War

The Vyaparan Civil war took place in 10 yaUC. It was the war between competing houses in Vyapara.

Pre-war
Candi installed the Guildhouse. Many commoners were upset due to the fact that all the power came in the hands of the rich merchants.

A wealthy commoner, Charles Newcolt, protested against this policy by protesting. After seven weeks, his party had grown big enough to have an influence, though Candi rejected his final proposal. He took the arms since he found out that protesting peacefully wasn't the right solution.

Early war
Merryweather was the first one to unite against the Newcolt in a coalition. A couple of minor battles took place in Oldmill (now part of Golden Groove). The Merryweather were defeated in the end. They were pushed back to Golden Groove harbour. The Awsteed decided to join the coalition. A month later, the Greenrich joined as well.

Late war
In the northern part of Golden Groove, the first big battle was fought against the three member of the Coalition and the Newcolt. The Newcolt suffered heavy losses and retreated to Oldmill. When the Awsteed cavalry started to siege their temporary fortress, the Newcolt lost and an armistice was signed.

Peacetreaty
The Newcolt would have a truce for 50 years with the members of the Coalition, and no armed conflict could be engaged again for 100 years. The Newcolt would gain their own seat in the Guildhouse, but not their own market. Candi thought that giving someone to much privilige, would end up hurting both parties. The would just want more.

At the end of the year, the Treaty of Oldmill was signed and the war was officially over.
