Arangothian Civil War
During the Year of 483, Drache came under siege by the magma wyrm Drogyoldiiv, which lasted for over two years until the wyrm was slain by adventurers in Drache, while assistance from the Crownlands itself was completely absent. During the same year Drogyoldiiv was finally slain, in the spring of 486, the Great Shadow, a massive shadow dragon seized control of the Arangothian province of Ruthmarna and kidnapped the Sithire of Transdariana, Marcion Aldenbar. These two events served as a catalyst for the Arangothian Civil War that was declared by the Interim Council, who had taken up power in the absence of the kidnapped Sithire, and the following summer the bid for independence from the Crown came to a head as northern forces were defeated in a decisive battle, the details of which remain scarce even til this day.
In the Year 487, Arangoth returned to a confederacy of Grand Duchies as it had been previously, Transdariania being amongst one of the seven seperate Sithrangel that took form in the wake of the Crownlands defeat. The other six duchies to be formed in the wake of the Crownlands defeat are Leptatarna, Sresar Vale, Elgaria, Ruthmarna, Arania and Minkbrantha.
