History
Allanea-UnAPS War
Main article: Allanea-UnAPS War
As a response to the Allanean invasion of Axackal, the Eternal Republic was forced to defend it's ally Edolia, resulting in a declaration of war against Allanea. The war was fought on multiple fronts, including -The Prophet-, where the force of 80'000 Barentese soldiers took heavy losses in the massive Allanean attacks, eventually forcing them to retreat and letting -The Prophet- slide to Allanean hands.
Following the loss of nearly 40'000 lives in the battles of -The Prophet-, serious reformations were made in the command structure and doctrines of the Barentese Defence Forces.
