The Lorrainian Revolt was a brief conflict between the Holy Orenian Empire and the Duchy of Lorraine, starting in 1729 with the Vesnian stand-off and ending a year later with the Siege of Guise. The conflict was primarily led by the Carrion descendants of the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska, Duchy of Adria and the Principality of Rubern whilst supported by the Imperial State, the Kingdom of Curonia and the Kingdom of Kaedrin.

Prelude

In 1727, Emperor Alexander II issued Imperial Letters for the Duchy of Lorraine, landing Leufroy D'Aumaury as the Duke of Lorraine. The land granted was along the Imperial road between the Principality of Rubern and the Imperial capitol of Helena. Fertile lands that years before had been destroyed by the War of Two Emperors.

However, neighbouring the newly landed Lorraine was already the Duchy of Adria. The Duke of Adria, Lord Adrian Sarkozic had been granted this land in return for dropping his claim on the imperial throne during The Troubles. Lorraine and Adria had since the Dukes' War had bad blood between the two and conflict almost immediately started brewing between them with both sides accusing one another of hiring mercenaries and bandits to raid and harass one another.

Whilst this was happening Emperor Alexander fell ill and was unable to govern directly, leading to little response on the growing tension from the Imperial government. The conflict officially started when the Lorrainian soldiers along with some Kaedreni seperatists had tried to pressure King Adrian I of Kaedrin to join their side by starting conflict with Haense and Rubern. Leading to the Vesnian stand-off where the Imperial Archchancellor decided to have Lewis of Lorraine arrested and executed whilst also summoning Lord Leufroy D'Aumaury to stand trial for treason.

Major Confrontations

The conflict lacked any pitched battles and primarily took place in minor skirmishes on the Imperial roads before leading up to the drawn out Siege of Guise.

Timeline

  • 1729:
    • An Adrian farmer is seemingly attacked by a Lorrainian footman, starting a stand off between Adria and Lorraine before rallying Haense.
    • The Empress Mother Cesarina of Marna storms the Haeseni duma in order to try and stop any Haeseni aggression in favour of Lorraine before publishing her public defence of Lorraine.
    • Count Erich of Nenzing and Count Sigmar of Ayr get assaulted by Kaedreni men in Rubern.
    • Haense, Rubern and Adria call their banners, marching towards Ves to confront the apparent Kaedreni agression.
    • The Vesnian stand-off begins as its revealed that Kaedreni seperatists in favour of Lorraine had tried to pressure the Kaedreni king to join Lorraine in a war against Adria
    • Lewis of Lorraine is arrested by Kaedrin and surrendered to the Imperial forces before being executed by Haense.
    • Duke Leufroy D'Aumary is summoned to Helena to stand trial for treason.
  • 1730:
    • Emperor Alexander issues the Writ of Revocation for the Duchy of Lorraine [1]
    • The Lorrainian lands are ceded to Adria and the castle begins to be demolished. Lorrainian soldiers retreat to Guise where they begin to harass Imperial roads.
    • The Black Army of Rubern along with the Brotherhood of Saint Karl and Adrian levymen lay siege to Guise. Beginning the Siege of Guise
    • Emperor Alexander appoints Prince Otto of Haense as commander of all Imperial forces.
    • A large siege camp is constructed, leading to mass defections and the eventual surrender of Guise.

Aftermath

After Guise had fallen the remaining Lorrainians either surrendered where they were given an Imperial pardon by Emperor Alexander II. and the ones that didnt scattered, most to the Conclave of Llyria to serve as mercenaries and some reportedly fled to Haelun'or. The fort of Guise was renamed by the Emperor to Tuvyas' rest in honour of Prince Otto of Haense and his decendancy from Emperor Tobias I. who Prince Otto was partially named after.

Before the war tensions had been high between the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska and the Kingdom of Kaedrin but due to Kaedrins assistance in ousting seperatists from their land all conflict was ceased and their relations was once again normalized. With the fall of Guise the lands was shortly after fully reclaimed by Kaedrin after the Republic of Ves had lost it during the War of Two Emperors.

The Revolt helped to unite the Carrion descendant houses of Barbanov, Sarkozic and Alimar which led to the Crowsmoot of 1731.
