The Second Northern War lasted for two years and could be said to be an unprecedented war.
Olivia's Kaer Morhen has obviously greatly expanded its power through this war.
The reason is of course that she has a good relationship with the Nilfgaard Empire, and then Geralt and Siliya have a good relationship with the Northern Territory, so Kaer Morhen can be completely neutral and have both sides.
The main reason is that the kings of this world, including Emperor Emhyr of the Nilfgaard Empire, do not realize how terrible technology based on magic is when it is used in the military!
As for the outcome of this unprecedented battle, the evaluations of the two major forces were naturally different. The history books of the Nilfgaard Empire recorded this -
"The Empire and the North are at war again. A mage rebellion broke out on the island of Thanede. Nilfgaard could no longer stand by and watch everything in the north be destroyed by magic. The Imperial Army occupied Lyria at lightning speed. There was little resistance. After a brief siege, our forces marched first into Livia and then into Vangerburg, each time encountering happy people who wanted peace and civilization. Then they entered Aedirn. .
King Demavi tried to stop the attack of the Golden Sun, but failed miserably, and his army was pushed back to the Pontar Valley and Dolbretanna.
Queen Miwe began to recruit bandits and outlaws to form a guerrilla force. After all, there was always a shortage of such people in the north.
King Henselt showed the typical conspiratorial nature of the northerners and signed an agreement with the empire behind his allies' back to divide Aedirn.
Out of his supreme benevolence, His Majesty the Emperor created an elven kingdom in Dol Bretanna, and built an elven sanctuary within the racially discriminatory laws of the northerners.
King Foltest of Temeria has signed a peace treaty with the Imperial Army, but the sword tips of the Northmen are as fickle as the melting snow on a spring battlefield. Foltest's foolishness led to the Massacre of Brugg and the subsequent series of bloody battles in the Yaruga Valley. After seeing this ruthless and uncontrolled violence, the leaders of the Imperial Army decided to stop the bloodshed and retreat to Soden.
Unfortunately, Foltest's greed meant that the next spring would be less peaceful. It all happened at the Battle of Brenner, where our legions of heroes faced off against the combined armies of Temeria and Redania. To this day, the North considers this engagement to be a turning point in the entire war. There is no point in constantly debating this position. What is important is that this war is a conflict between two strategies. One is the upright strategy of the imperial army leaders, and the other is the insidious and evasive tactics of the northerners.
His Majesty the Emperor knew the outcome of this conflict. The Northern armies employed scorched-earth tactics, not caring at all how much suffering they would inflict on the civilized population. Nilfgaard was disdainful of this and refused to participate in this behavior, so he withdrew his army to the south, but this was regarded by the northerners as an act of admitting defeat.
Thanks to the emperor's coordination, the north and the south finally signed an armistice agreement in Sintra, bringing an end to the Second Northern War. "
Scholars in the northern realm recorded such a battle that severely damaged both sides -
"Unlike the First Nilfgaardian War, in the second conflict it was not clear which nation was the first to initiate the provocation. The kings of the north met at Haggi Fortress and plotted to retake Cintra. Emperor Emhyr anticipated their attack plan, a large expeditionary force was gathered on the border of Temeria. Then, the Emperor manipulated a series of events to expose the north: the mage rebellion of Xenid and the assassination of King Vizmir, which made Redani Aedirn fell into chaos. Emhyr now only needed an excuse, and Aedirn's soldiers attacked Nilfgaard's frontline fortress, Grivithingen. Now with an excuse, the Nilfgaardian army immediately headed north March, and the Second Nilfgaardian War begins.
During the first phase of the war, the Imperial Army rapidly swept across the north. First, they captured southern Leiria. After a short siege, Livia also fell. Then fighting broke out at Edsberg, and then Meno Kouchren marched into Vangerburg. King Henselt of Kaedwen took this opportunity to conquer neighboring countries and signed an agreement with Nilfgaard to share Aedirn. The elves also took advantage of the opportunity and joined the ranks of the Empire in order to establish an independent kingdom in Dol Bretanna. The next traitor to jump ship and escape was King Foltest. He signed a treaty with Nilfgaard and captured the Haggi Fortress in the west of Aden. Demavi, the ruler of Aedirn, abandoned by his allies and left with a ruined kingdom, fled to Redania for refuge.
The first phase of the war ended, and the second phase began when Nilfgaard broke the truce and attacked Temeria, only sixteen days later. Nilfgaard's army immediately invaded Brugg and Soden, and the two lands were immediately bloodbathed. Emhyr captured all of southern Temeria in a short time and severely damaged Foltest's army at Maribor. The cunning emperor then retreated back to Sowden during the winter, preparing to attack again in the spring.
In the sunny spring of the next year, the most violent battle in history took place, the Temerian Offensive. The Northern Alliance finally proved that they were no pushovers and slowed Nilfgaard's advance. This opportunity allowed Emhyr's domestic enemies to take advantage and implement their plans to overthrow Emhyr. The Empire was exposed as a result of this internal strife (known as the conspiracy of the nobles), the myth of Nilfgaard's invincibility was shattered, and the Empire's strongest army was defeated by the Northern Army near Brenna. The situation in the war turned around.
The fourth and final phase of the war began. The attack from the north forced the Imperial Army to retreat slowly. Negotiations for an armistice agreement will begin sooner or later, a temporary ceasefire line is drawn on the battlefield, and the war is about to end. All parties sent representatives and decided to meet in Sintra to draft a peace treaty and establish a new world order. Finally, the Peace Treaty of Cintra was signed, bringing an end to the Second Nilfgaardian War. "
…
And when the strength of the northern kingdoms was severely damaged and the Nilfgaard Empire was in various civil strife, Olivia, who had always been a passerby, but had a sense of presence because of her identity as the daughter of Emperor Emhyr, was Suddenly announced the founding of the country and proclaimed himself emperor, and then led a modern army out to prepare to unify the mainland!
Many people think this is absolutely incredible. Even if the two major forces are seriously injured, is it something that a small neutral force like you can reach
But the fact shocked everyone!
