The '''Petran Civil War''', also called '''The Cuckold's War''' by loyalist Petrans or '''Constanz's Coup''' is an ongoing internal conflict between Archduchess Renilde I and her husband Archduke-Consort Constanz Novellen. The conflict began after the Archduke-Consort attempted to seize power in a coup after discovering that his wife had been unfaithful with Prince Marius Audemar of Haense. Soldiers under the command of the Archduke-Consort quickly seized the capital of Valefleur, forcing the Archduchess to flee to her allies in Sedan and Haense.

The Petran Civil War was an internal conflict waged between Archduchess Renilde Temesch et Moere and her husband the Archduke-Consort Constanz Novellen. The conflict began after the Archduchess Renilde was accused of having an affair with Prince Marius Audemar of Haense, and her husband Constanz who leveraged popular support from the citizens and nobility sought to attempt and depose her in a coup d'état while she was visiting the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska for diplomacy. While the Archduchess was in Haense, she issued private letters to summon back her loyal exiled knights Sir Paul Montalt and Valentin Mareno. While she was away, Constanz seized the town of Valfleur using the Sons of Petra. Over the course of five months, the Commonwealth of the Petra broke down into two opposing factions, the Loyalist Partisans who pledged fealty to Archduchess Renilde I, and the Sons of Petra Resistance Movement who pledged loyalty to Constanz.

  • 112th of the Second Age
    • The Archduke-Consort Constanz Novellen accuses Archduchess Renilde I of having an affair with Prince Marius Audemar of Haense
    • Soldiers under the command of Constanz seize Valefleur, yet Archduchess Renilde escapes and flees to her allies in Haense and Sedan
  • 113th of the Second Age
    • Archduke-Consort Constanz issues an official declaration of war on Renilde, intending to seize the throne of Petra due to her alleged affairs. The War is dubbed "The Cuckold War" by many of Renilde's supporters.
    • The Knights Council of Petra calls for Archduchess Renilde to face trial based on charges of adultery
    • As the Knights Council of Petra holds a trial for Archduchess Renilde despite her absence, a raiding party of Ferrymen breaches the proceedings and temporarily captures Archduke-Consort Constanz. He is brought to Valfleur, which Renilde's army had also taken, where peace negotiations are held. Talks eventually break down after hours of discussion, and Constanz is released after having his eye taken.
    • The Capital of Valefleur remains heavily contested as both sides sometimes claim to hold the city.
    • The two armies meet in the center of Valefleur for a conventional battle, sparking the Battle of Valefleur. The Loyalists win despite being slightly outnumbered
