The Toran Liberation War (トラン解放戦争; Toran Kaihou Sensou), also known as the Gate Rune Wars (門の紋章戦争; Mon no Monshou Sensou), was a civil war in the Scarlet Moon Empire lasting from SY 453 to SY 457.
History[]
The war officially began in SY 453 with the formation of the Toran Liberation Army by Odessa Silverberg. The group was founded in opposition to the increasingly corrupt government of the Scarlet Moon Empire.
The war ended with the liberation of Gregminster by the Liberation Army forces and the defeat and subsequent disappearance of Emperor Barbarossa Rugner. The Scarlet Moon Empire was disbanded as a result of the war and the Toran Republic was founded in its stead.
Although the war is regarded as a civil war, foreign intervention played a part. The City-States of Jowston inadvertently aided the Liberation Army, haven been manipulated into invading Senan, a ploy Liberation Army strategist Mathiu Silverberg had concocted to force an Imperial surrender in the region.
