After 4 months of battle, the coalition won by sending a wooden horse inside the city with warriors inside as a token to the sea ancient Crassonian God.

19 b.d - City states once again battle each other. A minor city-state, Salos, had wanted to escape the subjugation of Arres and join the influential sphere of Nattalos instead. The Arres retaliated by sending her hoplites to destroy the city. They were met by Nattalosian warriors however who refused to give their ground. Started the Pennolisian war. Nattalos and Venos started the Pennolisian pact along with 4 other minor states. They faced the Deomidian pact made up of the northern states of Arres, Mecellonia and Beirosian along with 3 other minor states. The Pennolisian pact used their advantage, their superior navy, to destroy enemy merchant ships and block enemy ports. They also used the navy to land their men on the enemy coast line to raid the farm lands close to the coast. The Deomidians however used their superior army to drive off the enemy farther and farther away out into the coast and stop the supply of goods going into their city via roads. The war led to a stalemate and by the winter of 18 b.d, both sides had agreed to a truce. The Deomidians used the opportunity to build a competent fleet while the Pennolisians build strategic outposts and bolstered their armies. By the spring of 17 b.d, the truce was called off and the war resumed between the opposing forces. Every tactic and strategy was used by both side but a stalemate was reached yet again by late summer. Fortunes changed however when Nattalos was crippled by a devastating plague during autumn. Venos was forced to surrender shortly after and the Deomidians enforced harsh sanctions on the enemy states. The war did take a heavy toll on the victors however. Arres was taken by a slave revolt and was never able to recover again and the farmlands of Beiros was razed so badly by the Pennolisians that it would take years to recover. The Mecellonians became the most dominant power in the region and there was nothing the other states could do.
13 b.d - Orminnian Empire was now expanding east after it had beaten it's arch-enemy, the Carriginians, to the west. The first to put a resistance against the advanicng Orminnians was the Mecellonians. The armies that met were equally matched however the Orminnians used javelins to penetrate their enemy from a distance before finishing them off with their short swords. The Orminnians defeated the Mecellonians with ease, using their javelins to break the enemy rows and charge in to finish the kill. The Orminnian cavalry then finished off the stragglers who routed. Mecellonia then summoned the other states to stand against the invading Orminnians. They were promised payment from Mecellonia if they successfully repelled the attackers. The other states also saw their chance to escape from the Mecellonians and began free yet again. The Orminnian Empire was also another threat to their sovereignty. The other states agreed. The battle between the alliance of the five states and the Orminnian legion was as swift as it had been with the Mecellonians alone, with the same outcome. The hoplites were annihilated by superior Orminnian legion. Crassonia made part of the Orminnian Empire.
3rd a.d, a new religion began to the Empire. Started by a Ghramite carpenter, the religion spread rapidly throughout the every the Empire. Aisus Dhristi, the leader of the growing cult, was quickly sentenced by the governor of the Empire to be tortured and killed. The Orminnians whipped Dhristi and placed him on a breaking wheel. The wheel tore him and half and his followers buried him inside a cave which was sealed by a giant rock. On the fifth day, his followers went to visit his tomb only to find the rock has been moved and the tomb empty. They claimed that an angel stood there and told them that their savoir had returned back to his father. This strengthened the resolve of the his followers. The Emperor of the time, Vallecious, persecuted the the followers of Dristi. The same elf who ordered the death of Dristi however, Konstantine, rose up for his followers. A massive civil war ensued between the largely pagan west and the followers of Dristi to the east. The war took three years but at the final battle of Oppus, a comet struck at a pagan temple which severely demoralized the western forces. They're morale was completely sapped when the forces of Konstantine unveiled their purple banner with the holy trinity, the father, the son and the holy spirit, towards their enemy. The western forces routed and Konstantine was able to capture Vallecious and execute him. He then declared himself the new Emperor and instated the Church of Dristi as the State Religion of the Empire.
