The Great War of Pellina, was a series of wars fought between the Kingdom of St Samuel and the Southern Holdinia Empire, at the peak of colonisation of Pellina period, which took place mainly in Pellina. Both St Samuel and Southern Holdinia had raced one another to gain control of the Arab Pellina Island and controlled colonies and protectorates throughout the region. The two sides had already fought each other in the Baba Canal War, with St Samuel being the victors.
The Great War of Pellina ended following Duke Otto Van Bischkirk's final defeat at Damietta (18 February 1827) and the Treaty of Ajaman, resulting in the end of Southern Holdinia occupation of Pellinese states.
Background
After the Baba Canal War, the Kingdom of St Samuel and the Southern Holdinia Empire had begun a race of occupation on the Pellina Island. After their defeat in the Baba Canal War, Southern Holdinia had forcefully occupied the Emirate of Maleeqa. They also backed rebel forces in the Emirate of Muhtaseb, where they supported the rebels and overthrew the Emir.
The Kingdom of St Samuel received requests from the Emirate of Haythamia, the Emirate of Midistan, the Emirate of Soudi Amedia, the Emirate of Lariya and the Emirate of Yasmia for protection from the Southern Holdinia Empire and by 1810, all had become fully fledged protectorates of St Samuel.
In 1811, St Samuel supported the overthrow of the Southern Holdinia-backed government of Salehstan, making the Emirate of Salehstan the ninth protectorate of St Samuel. Southern Holdinia had control of eight protectorates, which were the Emirate of Muhtaseb, the Emirate of Maleeqa, Emirate of Moodiqa, the Emirate of Saleemiqa, the Emirate of Shadiaq, the Emirate of Hassia, the Emirate of Sherifidan and the Emirate of Makaoui. The Pellina had been divided into the St Samuel controlled south and the Southern Holdinia controlled north.
