The War of the Vogian Succession was a regional Vaniuan dispute over the inheritance of the Vogian throne. Fought primarily between Balakia and the Anti-[[Zonkamâ]] forces. The war was originally contained to Vogia but gradually expanded outwards as more countries grew weary of Balak power in the area. | |||

The Vogian House of X had been unstable for many decades, inbreeding and constant scheming between members caused a general decrease in the amount of members, leaving only a handful by the 19th century. In 1867, an outbreak of X swept through the capital, leaving most of the royal family dead, and the king in poor condition. The king later died after being struck too hard during a sparring match, and the country was left with no clear heir. This interregnum forced the prominent nobles in Vogia to meet and decide on a new king. They spent over 3 years bickering without coming to a conclusion, leaving Vogia to suffer under the leadership of a poor governing council. Eventually, two very prominent nobles, X and X decided they'd had enough. They found that a Vogian princess had been married to the [[King of Zondush]] several decades ago, and had two sons. They approached the younger of the two sons, X, and begged him to take the throne. X agreed on the condition that the Parliament of the Balak Empire approved the decision. |
