The Two Month War, known by the Urguani as the War of Wigs and the Sheep War by the Imperials, was a major scale conflict between the Grand Kingdom of Urguan and the Holy Orenian Empire. The war began when the Grand King of Urguan issued several demands to the Holy Orenian Emperor. The Emperor immediately denied the demands and accepted the Grand King's offer for an Honor War. Prior to the war, tensions had begun over the Imperial State Army clashing with two members of the Ireheart Clan of Urguan. After several diplomatic attempts had failed and the vassals of Urguan making fervent calls for war the war was ignited. The war is seen as being rather unique, since beforehand both Grand King Ulfric and Emperor Philip II agreed to an Honor War, meaning no allies or mercenaries would be called into the conflict except for vassal-states of either Oren or Urguan.
The war was ended after a cessation of hostilities by both parties. The Grand King of Urguan declared victory after the death of Emperor Philip II.
