Civil
conflict, in the Principality of
Caledon, sparked by the death of Prince Colin without issue. Two rival claimants emerged to dispute the throne, Admiral
Earl Maxwell and Edward, Lord Campbell. Campbell
emerged victorious at the decisive Battle
of Dunbarton, largely due to his superior war chest
backed by the support of a number of the wealthiest mercantile corporations in
the Principality. Campbell ascended
to the Princely Throne on 004-1025; his descendants continue to rule today. Maxwell’s descendents today reside on Germaine (Reavers'
Deep 2019), and still claim they are the rightful rulers of the Principality.
