The Schism War was the extended conflict that began in 1483 with the fall of the Fourth Empire and ended in 1491 with the unconditional surrender of the Vanderfell Coalition to the Canonist League following Godfrey, Duke of Petrus' surrender to King Andrew of Akovia. It is defined by the massively unbalanced amount of forces that were involved on either side of the conflict, as well as its defining impact on the geopolitical atmosphere of late Athera and current day Vailor. The Schism War is widely seen as being responsible for the current realm's balance of power, and is directly related to the current status of Humanity, and indirectly responsible for the current state of the Elvish People, Grand Kingdom of Urguan, and Orcish Hordes.
The Schism War was one of the largest conflicts to engulf the realm of the descendants, and one of the harshest divides in Human History. The impact of the war was felt years after its end, with few Waldenian cultures of Aesterwald surviving in Vailor, and the dominance of the Canonist League in subsequent Orenian politics. The end of the war saw a major revival of the Canonist faith, and Orenian patriotism was at an all time high under the much beloved King Andrik Vydra.
