The Acre Rebellion, also called the Farmer Uprising, is a large-scale civil war within the Kingdom of Oren. The war began when the Kingdom of Oren issued an edict known as the Resolution of Acre, which commanded the eviction of Acre's leadership and placed a bounty of 3,000 mina on Hannes and Gustaf de Vilain. After several skirmishes were waged between both sides, the Barony of Acre declared independence and its intentions to oust the current Orenian regency and royal family.

Timeline
86th year of the Second Age
- After the Barony of Acre withdraws from the Almaris Coalition War without the consent of the Orenian Crown, Frederick I, King of Oren has a heart attack and enters a coma. Elric Castile is named Regent until Frederick recovers or until Prince Frederick Aurelian comes of age.
- Lord-Protector Elric calls for a court of the nobles to discuss what to do about Acre's withdrawal from the previous Coalition War; Acre does not attend.
- As a result of the meeting, Lord-Protector Elric issues the Resolution of Acre which places a bounty on Baron Gustaf for 3,000 mina and orders the eviction of the castle. [1]
- With the Resolution being published, Acre mobilises and arms its citizenry whilst several skirmishes take place throughout the Kingdom of Oren, most of which end in favour of Acre.
- Sir Rev Vuiller, still having control of his Orenian territory of Vuillermoz, declares his support for the Acrean Rebellion and brings Aquilea into the war. [2]
87th year of the Second Age
- An Acre raid on Grodno occurs, in which several nobles are captured, including the Margrave of Grodno and members of his family, with the Baronet of Rochefort caught on the roads in the aftermath. The Barony of Acre negotiates that, in exchange for the Margrave's release, Grodno will withdraw from the conflict. [3]
- On the same month that Grodno had withdrawn from the war, the Barony of Acre declares its independence from the Kingdom of Oren and begins to march towards Vienne. [4]
