- Joseph I is crowned within the city of Reza as Holy Orenian Emperor by High Pontiff Everard V.
- The Orenian army marches towards the city of Helena and clashes with the Renatian army in the Battle of Upper Rodenburg, resulting in a decisive victory for the Holy Orenian Empire.
- Everard V excommunicates all Pertinaxi Horens, declaring them anathema.
- Clashes continue between smaller bands of soldiers from either side, with both Empires taking a number of victories.
- Coronation of Godfrey III within the palace of Helena.
- The Empire of Renatus marches towards Leuven with a large force attacking the force stationed near there, culminating in the Battle of Lower Rodenbourg and a decisive Renatian victory.
- The Empire of Renatus declares Anabel of Curonia as Queen of Curonia, with two former Curon vassals joining the Renatian Empire.
