The war is not yet completed and is in fact just really starting. Right now the only things of note are the blockading of Hogsweat and the subsequent (and ongoing) bombardment of military installations within Hogsweatian coastal cities, as well as the bombing of militarily and economically important facilities within the Hogsweatian capital of Dorsalgrad. Of course, the first true Imperial military action was the kinetic bombardment of Hogsweatian naval bases and the sinking of two Doujin class superdreadnaughts by the same method, which marks the first time any vessel within that class has been rendered totally combat ineffective during combat.
