[Dyrrhonian Isles]

Diarceso-Losphortoenan War (c. 1762-1769)
- Opponents: The war was fought between Diarcesia and Losphortoenean pirates. Among various seas this occurred, the waters around the Dyrrhonian Isles was no exception
- Outcome: Victory for the Monarchy Diarcesian after the Battle of Michael's Bay. Diarcesia annexed Losphortoene. The Kingdom of Chiyginia acceded as a dieresis. Cleanup operations persisted for decades

Quotes:
1. "They come like wolves to our shores, but we will show them what true strength is!" – A soldier addressing his comrades before a coastal engagement with Losphortoenean pirates.
2. "This isle belongs to Diarcesia! We will not cower in fear while they plunder and pillage." – A local militia leader rallying defenders against pirate incursions on their home island.

---

Dyrrhonian Civil War (1803-1810)
- Opponents: This conflict was primarily between pro-independence forces within one island against those favoring continued membership within Diarcesia. These are the last Taplonianese settlers in the Isles.
- Outcome: Diarcesia's military intervention successfully suppressed secessionist attempts. All Taplonianese colonists left.

Quotes:
1."For our homeland! We will not let them take away what we have built together!" – A soldier fighting in defense of monarchic unity
2."Even if they call us traitors, it's time to decide what future we want—one ruled by foreign powers or free people making their own decisions!" – Secessionist

---

The Taplonianese Incursion (2001-2002)
- Opponents: Dyrrhonian Isles versus the Taplonianese Tsardom
- Outcome: Dyrrhonian defenders and local Mundana Forces naval presence repulsed the Taplonianese without needing reinforcements from the mainland. The Exchequer Treaty between Diarcesia and the Taplonianese is signed to conclude the hostilities.

Quotes:
1. "They may have their numbers, but we know these waters like the back of our hands! Let us show them what it means to defend our home!" – A naval officer addressing his crew before engaging with Taplonianese forces near the coast.
2. "This is not just a fight for land; it's a fight for everything we've built together as part of Diarcesia." – Defender rallying local militia members against invading troops on one island's outskirts.

[Rhanukhan]

The history of the Unified Provinces of Rhanukhan is replete with minor conflicts, but a few of the more prominent examples are listed below...

Despite its importance in Rhanukhani history, the conflict with the Pretakhoni Empire doesn't really have a specific name.

Date/Year Started: c. 0

Date/Year Finished: c. 12AU

Sides and their Leaders: The five nations of the Rhanukhii, Ghattorians, Khuna, Kangharukhii, and Samravhtelukhii (Stephannos of the Rhanukhii) -v- The Pretakhoni Empire (Emperor Yullianos, Who Holds All That Is)

Build-Up: Some 6,000 years after The Inundation, the ships of the Pretakhoni Empire arrived in the Holodlhessi Lowlands, seeking to expand their territory. Stephannos, the chief of the Rhanukhii at this time, recognised that the squabbling tribes of the region couldn't hope to resist this threat and, in the interests of everybody's protection, successfully forged an alliance with his neighbours in the Central Rhanukhani Plains. Thus, the four nations of the Ghattorians, Khuna, Kangharukhii and Samravhtelukhii joined with the Rhanukhii to become the core of the later Unification.

Main Events: Stephannos was given the title of "Upetrosut Bolvelahztla" ("Chief Above All Others") and, leading the warriors of the five tribes against the Pretakhoni, he proved to be a master strategist and mighty combatant in his own right. Many a foe fell to his axe of meteoric iron, an artefact that had been held by prior chieftains of the Rhanukhii, but would come to be most closely associated with him by later generations.

Who Won and How: Though they were arguably the more technologically advanced civilization, the Pretakhoni were frequently outwitted and outfought by Stephannos and his warriors, who were quick to capture and utilise the superior armour and weapons of their opponents. In spite of numerous campaigns, the Pretakhoni were never able to gain a foothold in the Central Rhanukhani Plains and eventually signed a treaty establishing a border in the Eastern Highlands.

Key Post-battle/-war Events: The founding of the alliance is now recognised as year zero in the modern Rhanukhani calendar with dates rendered as BU (Before Unification) and AU (Age of Unification), as appropriate. The alliance successfully maintained its sovereignty and the modern Unified Provinces of Rhanukhan can be considered the direct continuation of that new state.

Date/Year Started: 612AU

Date/Year Finished: 622AU

Sides and their Leaders: The Unified Provinces of Rhanukhan (Ælfred of Rhanukhan) -v- The minor realms of the Holodlhessi Lowlands (various rulers)

Build-Up: Conflicts at home led to the Pretakhoni abandoning their more distant territories, including Holodlhessi, by the year 467AU (ultimately, as any historian can tell you, these conflicts were the beginning of the end of the Pretakhoni Empire, which diminished over the following centuries and finally ceased to exist in the Medieval Era). The presence of the Unified Provinces and Pretakhoni Empire had long maintained order and stability in these lands. The sudden disappearance of one of these powers led to turmoil and the rise of numerous minor realms in constant conflict with one another. During their occupation, the Pretakhoni had drained the marshy Holodlhessi Lowlands, making them the most fertile lands in the region and a desirable target for many a would-be ruler. In the year 612AU, Ælfred of Rhanukhan intended them to be his and the greatest armed action of the age commenced.

Main Events:

Who Won and How: A huge force was mustered and swept across the Eastern Highlands, conquering the smaller nations beyond in a crusade that lasted less than a decade.

Key Post-battle/-war Events: Instead of brutally oppressing the people of these realms, the canny Ælfred insisted that they could keep their cultures and traditions - he would grant them the full rights and privileges of any Rhanukhani citizen in return for their loyalty. The chance to share equally in the power and prosperity of the Unified Provinces was a gift that few would refuse, and the rulers of these lands all pledged their fealty to Ælfred, who took on the new title of "Dominus" - a title that would be held by all future monarchs of Rhanukhan.

Date/Year Started: 835AU

Date/Year Finished: 938AU

Sides and their Leaders: The Unified Provinces of Rhanukhan (various successive monarchs) -v- The Warlords of Nohvala

Build-Up: As much of a desirable holding as the Holodlhessi Lowlands were, the Rhanukhani homeland frequently attracted covetous eyes itself. Raiders from the land of Gantsamvleli to the north, beyond the River Tehsi, had regularly poured down the Sohwalan Vale, aiming to pillage the fertile and prosperous Central Rhanukhani Plains. Situated right in their path, the settlement of Nohvala Kaglakh became by necessity a mighty fortified city, home to legions of stalwart defenders. Eventually the raiders gave up their attempts to pass this way and retreated to their grim homelands, but the Warlords of Nohvala had come to develop a sense of invincibility by this time. In their defence of these northern lands, their armies had occupied the surrounding territories. Always expanding, always gaining in strength. Their rule now extended west into the Pyhnanni Mountains and east into the Nohyohvan Mountains and in 835AU their gaze turned south, towards Rhanukhan.

Main Events: Conflict between Rhanukhan and Nohvala raged for over a century until the fateful day that the descendants of those earlier northern raiders saw their opportunity. Recognising that their ancient foe was heavily engaged to the south, the clans of Gantsamvleli crossed the River Tehsi all but unopposed, devastating Nohvala’s civilian population.

Who Won and How: Caught between the northern raiders' hammer and Rhanukhan's anvil, the Nohvalan warlords sued for peace, reasoning that if Nohvala fell the raiders would finally have free access to the heart of Rhanukhan. The Rhanukhani Dominus, William I (known to history as "William the Peacebringer") acknowledged this point and also that the warriors of Nohvala had historically been Rhanukhan's protection against the clans of Gantsamvleli. He offered an alliance with the Nohvalans if they would consent to join their lands with the Unified Provinces and swear fealty to him. The Warlords were outraged at the suggestion that they should surrender their realms to their enemy, but the Dominus countered that such wasn't his intent. With the Nohvalan lands as new additions, the Unified Provinces would become too large and unwieldy to be governed effectively from a single central point. He proposed that the new northern provinces would be a semi-autonomous union with Nohvala Kaglakh as its capital. The warlords eventually accepted these terms and the Unified Provinces doubled in size at a stroke.

Key Post-battle/-war Events: The massed armies of the newly expanded Unification drove the raiding clans back beyond their borders from whence they were never a serious threat again.

Date/Year Started: 1138AU

Date/Year Finished: 1153AU

Sides and their Leaders: Civil war between supporters of Lord Daniel of Nohyohva and Lady Helena of Pretakhonia

Build-Up: In 1138AU, Dominus Peter III died childless. A written document was produced, showing that he had appointed Daniel, the Lord of Nohyohva as his successor, but Peter's sister, Helena, Lady of Pretakhonia, denounced it as fraudulent and claimed the throne by right of blood (historians argue to this day over the truth of the matter). Court erupted into chaos with nobles siding with both claimants.

Main Events: Within weeks a bloody civil war had erupted and the throne of Rhanukhan would sit empty. For fifteen years the war ground on, a bloody stalemate with no faction gaining the advantage. With the two alliances backing Daniel or Helena and numerous provinces declaring themselves independent this truly seemed like the end of Rhanukhan.

Who Won and How: It was to be one of these independent provinces that ultimately settled matters in 1153AU. Baron Stephen of Phogoltani (sometimes called "Stephen the Wily") invited Lady Helena to a secret council, offering to lend his strength to her cause. After all, he stated, they were both Pretakhonians and he would thus much rather see her on the throne. Arriving at Stephen's castle, however, Helena was shocked to be seized by his guards and locked in a cell with none other than Lord Daniel. Evidently her rival had responded to a similar invite, wherein Stephen had made claim that, even though Helena was a fellow Pretakhonian, he wouldn’t have a woman on the throne of Rhanukhan. Stephen offered them each a pen or a sword, stating that enough Rhanukhani blood had been spilled on their account - they could negotiate a truce or fight to the death to settle matters here and now. Eventually an agreement was reached. Daniel's two sons had both been killed in the war, leaving him without heir. He would be crowned the new Dominus on condition he acknowledged Helena's son, Russ, as his successor.

Key Post-battle/-war Events: In the summer of 1153AU, Daniel ascended the throne, reuniting the provinces. His triumph was short-lived, however, as he died of illness in the winter of 1154AU and so it was that Helena lived to see her son, Russ, found a new dynasty.

Date/Year Started: 1484AU

Date/Year Finished: 1486AU

Sides and their Leaders: Civil war during which a succession of four monarchs occupied the throne within the span of two years. The period witnessed several rebellions and claimants, with shifting allegiances and widespread turmoil in Rhanukhan's provinces.

Build-Up: Challenged by George, Lord of Pretakhonia, and declared an enemy of the people by the provincial Barons, Dominus Roderick committed suicide, bringing an end to the Skarthan Dynasty.

Main Events: Although George would take the throne as Dominus George II his rule proved to be short - he was murdered and succeeded by his disgruntled supporter - Alain, Baron of Wehdawahan - the following January. Dominus Alain himself would fall in battle (the last Rhanukhani monarch to do so) barely three months later, leading his troops against the forces of the woman who became his successor - Vanessa, Lady of Nohyohva. She, in turn, would be dead by the year's end - murdered by a mob, following the defeat of her forces by those loyal to Callum, Baron of Khibsi.

Who Won and How: When Callum, Baron of Khibsi, made his bid known, he received the allegiance of the armies of Pretakhonia as well as many former supporters of George and Alain. After his acclamation in Ahnderawhudi Kaglakh on the 1st of July, Callum sent his friend, Mark (the debate over whether "friend" is the appropriate title continues to this day - many argue that the pair were lovers) with a part of his army to fight Vanessa, but the Pretakhonian forces commanded by Baron Thomas of Wehtonia had not waited for Mark and defeated Vanessa's army at the Second Battle of Benbhallan on the 24th of October. Vanessa was subsequently killed by a mob on the 20th of December. Mark arrived several days after and swiftly secured Callum's position in Rhanukhan Kaglakh (Thomas had acted independently from him).

Key Post-battle/-war Events: Dominus Callum (known ever after as "the Triumphant") ultimately restored order and reunified the provinces, bringing an end to the conflicts known today as "The War of Four".

Date/Year Started: 1790AU

Date/Year Finished: 1816AU

Sides and their Leaders: The Unified Provinces of Rhanukhan (Dominus Charles II, followed by his son, Dominus Robert III) -v- The Allied Western Powers (various rulers)

Build-Up: Several nations were rising up to become global powers at this time leading to a series of conflicts all across the planet. An alliance between Mahdkhesthan, Ahzekhteesi, and Mahmalohan threatened Rhanukhan from the west.

Main Events: Various battles mainly fought in and around the Pyhnanni Mountains. The conflict is notable for rapid improvements in firearms and artillery on both sides.

Who Won and How: Following a number of battles, the Unified Provinces secured their western border in the Pyhnanni Mountains.

Key Post-battle/-war Events: After the defeat of Ahzekhteesi at the end of the Adastyavleti Wars, the Unified Provinces emerged as the principal power of the 19th century (with Rhanukhan Kaglakh the largest city in Nevitsroghan from about 1830AU). Unchallenged at sea and on land, Rhanukhani dominance was later described as "Khavidhutoba Rhanukhana" ("Peace of Rhanukhan"), a period of relative peace among the Great Powers (1816-1914AU) during which the Unified Provinces of Rhanukhan became a major hegemony.

Date/Year Started: 1853AU

Date/Year Finished: 1856AU

Sides and their Leaders: The Southern Allies (various rulers) -v- Gamiatianekan Idiokrahtia (Emperor Buff Oonery)

Build-Up: The Idiokratian government of the era had been replaced by a self-proclaimed emperor who pursued expansionist policies, leading to neighbouring nations in the south seeking military aid.

Main Events: Rhanukhan took part in the Southern War, allied with Mianertograditojikayhan in the fight against Gamiatianekan Idiokrahtia, participating in the naval battles of the Tahmessi Sea in the Uidershinsi Straits and the Tahmessi Deep, among others.

Who Won and How: The Southern Allies

Key Post-battle/-war Events: Though primarily an exercise in demonstrating Rhanukhan's military reach across the globe, a strong relationship was formed between the Unified Provinces and Mianertograditojikayhan that has lasted to the present day.

Date/Year Started: 1914AU

Date/Year Finished: 1918AU

Sides and their Leaders: The Unified Provinces of Rhanukhan and Supporters (various rulers) -v- Mahdkhesthan, Samravhkhent and Supporters (various rulers)

Build-Up: A powerful nation like Rhanukhan would always have enemies. In 1914AU, Dominus Anthony II made a state visit to neighbouring Mahdkhesthan, tragically unaware of the level of resentment for perceived Rhanukhani influence in the country. During Anthony's tour of the national capital, Gamuykli, several assassins from a movement known as The New Order took up positions along the route taken by the Dominus' motorcade. Supplied with arms by extremists within the Samravhkhenti intelligence service (Samravhkhent being another nation antagonistic to the Unified Provinces), they regarded their own government as traitors for their "obsequious" dealings with Rhanukhan and hoped that Anthony's death would destroy the relationship, freeing Mahdkhesthan from Rhanukhani hegemony.

They got their wish... and so much more...

The reign of Anthony II was cut short by a single gunshot on the main boulevard of Gamuykli.

Main Events: Anthony's son, also named Anthony, ascended the throne as Anthony III and, as his first act, sought vengeance for his beloved father. The Mahdkhesthanis had already arrested the assassin and several high-ranking members of The New Order, but it was too late. Not caring for diplomacy, the impetuous young Dominus sent Rhanukhani troops across the border, easily crushing the first lines of defence. Samravhkhent, sensing an opportunity to weaken Rhanukhan's presence on the international stage, condemned the move and rushed their own forces to aid in Mahdkhesthan's defence. This triggered a domino-effect of allies and rivals of Rhanukhan taking sides and entering into conflict with one another right across the continent.

Who Won and How: The war would ultimately last only four years, but had a death toll comparable to medieval plagues. It changed the world map forever, with various nations in ruin, some even ceasing to exist as distinct entities, and new nations rising to prominence. The Unified Provinces of Rhanukhan emerged intact and triumphant, though with their reputation perhaps somewhat tarnished and certain alliances strained or even broken.

Key Post-battle/-war Events: The remainder of the century was a time of peace and prosperity. It saw Rhanukhan become a nuclear power, taking advantage of the extensive uranium deposits discovered in Harghattoria province, as well as a spacefaring one, with the first Rhanukhani astronaut setting foot on Sargvilosahnah's moon in 1968AU (Commander Amelia Vambrace, famously stating, "The journey into infinity begins with this single step."). Rhanukhan's extensive rail networks were enhanced with the MagLev XRT on major routes and construction of an Interprovincial 10-Lane Mega Highway System transformed the nation's transportation infrastructure for decades to come. It was an age of great social and scientific advancement - the citizens of the Unified Provinces had never been happier or more prosperous.

Date/Year Started: 2008AU (though Symyano infiltrators had been active on the world for several years prior)

Date/Year Finished: 2008AU

Sides and their Leaders: All Nations of the World of Sargvilosahnah (various rulers) -v- The Symyano Hegemony (Highmaster Thebigboss of Symyan'zu)

Build-Up: Late in 2007AU, astronomer Beneridist Fredster at the Nocastle Institute of Technology in Mianertograditojikayhan, first detected a curious object heading towards Sargvilosahnah. It wasn't long before observers in other nations were reporting it also. The first fuzzy images of an enormous, yellow, curved object quickly led to the international press christening it "The Banana". Two days later the object came down in the Eruhani Ocean, scattering ejecta all across Sargvilosahnah and inundating sections of the Rhullan and Eruhani coastlines with massive tsunamis. The speed with which several nations rushed to claim territory in these suddenly depopulated areas is not looked back upon with much pride.

The Faithful Administrator of Veletarna speculated that "giant evil space monkeys" may have been responsible for The Banana. A comment seen as a joke by many people worldwide that would prove surprisingly prescient.

Rhanukhan established a colony in northern Rhulla, which it named Lazarastra, hoping to take advantage of any new resources offered by the unprecedented situation. They weren't the only interested party, with colonies and also military and commercial ventures being established by a number of nations.

Following some contradictory reports out of Lazarastra, the region was plunged into chaos as a plague spread through the colonies, seemingly transforming people into yellow zombies, and Lazarastra suddenly declared independence with the former colonial governor's wife and head scientist, Professor Lucy Sideboard, setting herself up as queen. By the time Rhanukhan had regained control of the wayward colony, most of the colonists and "Queen Lucy" herself had vanished without a trace.

As part of the liberation of Lazarastra, Rhanukhan annexed neighbouring Rhullan territories, establishing the colonies of Bahamghar and Kharanwhari.

It was around this time that the charismatic business mogul, Constantine Malachite, began to rise to prominence. His company, Malachite Evolving Enterprises, rapidly expanded into various markets, effectively taking over many aspects of the Rhanukhani Space Program (providing advanced global communications through the OrbiTech Satellite Network), making incredible advances in genetic engineering (Rhanukhan's armed forces were augmented by legions of the GBI-1 - GeneTech Banana Infantryman Type 1 - a clone super-soldier developed by Professor Lucy Sideboard, who had secretly been Malachite's accomplice and lover all along - the so-called "yellow zombie" plague had been the result of early GBI-1 research), and even delivering further territory to the Rhanukhani government. Following the destruction of the Niahvogalese Federation, seemingly as a result of a disastrous flaw in their extensive nuclear arsenal, Malachite made the surviving Niahvogalese colonists in the Eruhani Ocean a remarkable offer. If they would grant him governorship of their two islands, the impressive resources of Malachite Evolving Enterprises would be deployed to create all the currently missing infrastructure. The islanders accepted and the new Rhanukhani province of Lehpuhrta & Currakhan was born.

At this time amazing technological advances were being made in nations all over Sargvilosahnah, taking advantage of the exotic properties of Banana-derived materials.

In April 2008AU, Malachite was arrested on charges of treason by the Rhanukhani National Security Agency (RNSA), though they wouldn't hold him for long.

Main Events: April the 13th 2008AU is a day that everybody on Sargvilosahnah remembers. The day that they learned for certain that they weren't alone in the universe. The day that the Symyano arrived.

Various observatories had recently noted a large number of interstellar objects approaching and many feared that The Banana had been only the beginning of what would become a total extinction event. Unlike The Banana, however, these new objects slowed, changed course, and settled into orbits around Sargvilosahnah. Even as various media outlets around the world were reporting on this curious turn of events, every channel everywhere was hijacked and broadcast one thing - the face and voice of Fleetmaster Boohubalss of the Symyano Hegemony.

The Symyano were a race of chimp-like beings from the world of Symyan'zu who dominated many star systems and had selected Sargvilosahnah as their latest colonial target (The Faithful Administrator of Veletarna had been surprisingly close to the truth, it seems). It was revealed that Symyano infiltrators, remotely operating humanoid avatars, had been present on the planet for several years, working to undermine society. The Banana had been sent as a demonstration of their superior power.

The international response to this announcement was disorganised and chaotic. Some countries surrendered immediately (their rulers were almost certainly Symyano infiltrators), some practically fell into civil war as collaborators, seeking to curry favour with the invaders, clashed with those who wished to fight back. Others attempted to attack the orbiting vessels, but even nuclear weaponry proved insufficient.

They say, "Cometh the hour, cometh the man!" Into this maelstrom strode Constantine Malachite. Amazingly, he seemed prepared for this very possibility and time and again over the coming months his actions would spell defeat for the Symyano. He saved The Supreme Chairman of Rhanukhan when Rhanukhani foreign minister, Allistair Ballustrade, revealed that he was a Symyano infiltrator, Alrabustt, and attempted to force the nation's surrender. Taking advantage of the fact that Lehpuhrta's bedrock had been suffused with the propellant material of The Banana, creating a new ore known as Bananætherium with gravity-defying properties, he next transformed the island into a flying headquarters from which he co-ordinated the world's defence.

Initially destroying the Symyano flagship and Fleetmaster Boohubalss with it (mere moments after Boohubalss had broadcast a claim denouncing him as a traitorous infiltrator named Chonmiklatt - an assertion that was never satisfactorily disproven), Malachite would be a persistent thorn in the side of the new Symyano Fleetmaster, Coohudalss. The OrbiTech Satellite Network was revealed to be a secret weapons system, his GBI-1 troops supported their human compatriots in ground actions, defeating Symyano surface troops everywhere. Combining his own assets with those of other nations stymied the Symyano at every turn.

Malachite's efforts were almost undone at the height of the conflict when the RNSA, having captured a Symyano infiltrator, were able to develop a weapon capable of killing such agents by forcibly disconnecting their mental links with their human avatars. Malachite was indeed Chonmiklatt and very nearly died when the weapon's signal was broadcast, saved only by the fast actions of Lehpuhrta's governing computer system - the Simulated Intelligence Machine #1. With the destruction of his humanoid avatar, Chonmiklatt had to take on a more covert role, never leaving the island and dealing with people through remote communications utilising a simulation of his human appearance, animated by the S.I.M. #1.

Who Won and How: The ongoing failure of the invasion ultimately resulted in the Highmaster of the Symyano Hegemony himself arriving aboard his personal warship, the Star Collector - a vessel with the power to destroy a whole world. When Highmaster Thebigboss informed his failed invasion fleet that they would be destroyed along with the rest of Sargvilosahnah, Coohudalss accepted this judgement only to be promptly assassinated by his aide, Kyookumbarr, who successfully allied most of the Symyano with Malachite.

In the end an elaborate scheme was established, with contributory factors from several nations and the Symyano rebels under Kyookumbarr, that resulted in the annihilation of the Star Collector and the death of the Highmaster.

Key Post-battle/-war Events: Following the war, Kyookumbarr went on to lead his fleet back to Symyan'zu and take up the mantle of Highmaster, commencing a series of reforms to Symyano society.

Within hours of the destruction of the Star Collector, a reporter for the Rhanukhani State News Network broadcast live footage of a fleet of RNSA aerocarriers approaching Lehpuhrta. No official comment was ever made regarding their mission, but the footage showed that the flying island disappeared in a spectacular pyrotechnic display before they were able to make landfall. The official record stated that the island was utterly destroyed by some catastrophic failure in one of its many advanced weapons systems, but the truth is that nobody on Sargvilosahnah knows what became of it. Constantine Malachite, Lehpuhrta, and its inhabitants have not been seen since that day.

Many nations ceased to exist as distinct entities as a result of events during the Worlds War and new nations have emerged in their place. The vast and ancient Unified Provinces enjoy a respected position in the international community, being a source of otherwise lost historic knowledge and wisdom.

Malachite Evolving Enterprises, now headed up by David Anvil, a decorated hero of the Worlds War, continues to dominate the Rhanukhani business scene, still producing all manner of advanced technology. It was the source of the first Artificial Intelligences, apparently derived from a naturally emergent AI personality on the MEE master computer that had named herself "Simone" (said to be a play on the computer's original title, "Simulated Intelligence Machine #1"), though she had evidently disappeared with Lehpuhrta. Rhanukhani law now recognises suitably advanced AIs as full citizens.

They aren't the only non-human citizens either. Although Kyookumbarr led most of the remains of his fleet back to Symyan'zu, several nations around the world (including Rhanukhan) found that they'd acquired populations of former Symyano soldiers who'd chosen to stay and make a new life for themselves. Many of them in the Unified Provinces have careers in the Rhanukhan Orbital Defence Force or various science and technology disciplines.

Not counting the wars that America fought prior to its collapse in 2016?

Okay, just the brief Anarchist Uprising of 2017. The fact that we're not an anarchy now should tell you who won.

Just look right here.

We took over New Zealand. It took a week, so it wasn't really much of a war. In fact, it's usually called the New Zealand Secret War, because most people didn't know about it. It was just New Zealand, after all. Many still haven't noticed.
