The War of Two Emperors was a large conflict brought about by the dissolution of the Empire of Man by Antonius I, and the formation of the Empire of Renatus and reformation of the Holy Orenian Empire. The war began with the accession of Joseph I to the throne of the Holy Orenian Empire, and the coronation of Godfrey III as Emperor of Renatus. The war ended with the signing of the Treaty of Reza in 1721, in which the Kingdom of Haense vassalized under the Empire of Renatus.

    • The Empire of Renatus marches towards Leuven with a large force attacking the force stationed near there, culminating in the Battle of Lower Rodenbourg and a decisive Renatian victory.
    • The Empire of Renatus declares Anabel of Curonia as Queen of Curonia, with two former Curon vassals joining the Renatian Empire.
    • An Orenian incursion into the Crownlands is intercepted by Renatian soldiers in the outskirts of Helena. Renatian infantry and cavalry quickly engage in melee, routing Orenian forces.
  • 1716:
    • As Imperium-allied forces retreat into their capital of Helena and build defensive work, the Orenian alliance lays siege to the capital, beginning the Siege of Helena. After days of a brutal attack, destroying half the palace and much of the city, the armies of Oren push into Helena but are repelled in a final stand in its throne room.
    • Upon the Orenian loss of the Siege, the Kingdom of Curonia declare neutrality from Oren, demanding all association be cut. The Orenian crown refuses.
