    The Kythiran Invasion of Imperius was a war fought between the forces of the Kythiran Empire and the united forces of the Imperius Monarchists and the Raggisar Republicans. It was fought fully in what at the time was the Imperius Reich, which today is the Raggisar Republic.

    Pre-War Events

    At the closing days of the Dervich Incident, the Emperor of Kythira had ordered the arrest of the visiting Kaiser of Imperius and his Grand Marshall, who were visiting for peacetalks in the Kythiran city of Helmira. The intend by the Kythirans had been to negotiate directly with the Imperius Senate, using the Kaiser as leverage, but instead republican undercurrents in Imperius, which had begun to form ever since the Lotrican Genocide, exploded, causing a civil war in Imperius between the Monarchists, who wished to have Kaiser Von Dragestein return to Imperius, and the Republicans, who wished to establish a full Republic, inspired by the Aqumis Republic and the ancient Federation of Provinces from the Second Era.

    Cause

    The Kythirans did not want a republican government in charge. Preferring a monarch and a system more like their own, they immediately began preparations to restore order in Imperius, end the civil war and return the Kaiser as the leader of the Reich, although with considerably less powers than before. The Kythirans hoped that, in return for helping the Kaiser regain his throne, they would be able to annex large swaths of territory of the Reich.

    The War

    As the raids upon the Riverlands continued, a group of Riverlanders fled east, under the guidance of Lord Whazajottom, one of the First Men.
