It is unclear exactly why the war began, but many contemporary scholars point to the escalation of a wide-ranging prank war instigated by the <a href="Order_of_the_Black_Ladder.html">Order of the Black Ladder</a> against the emerging Remigrationist movement. Note that the label "War of Civil Coherence" is one insisted upon primarily by First Quartile scholars; among some Disquietist schools, it is known as "The Revolution pt. II," a reference to the Disquietist dogmatic teaching that all sequels are inevitably social and commercial failures.</p> <p>The war proceeded according to the following pattern, at various scales. First, anti- Remigrationist forces would perform a prank or other offense in some area. Second, First Quartile military forces would move to that area and attempt to stamp out resistance. Without the benefit of <a href="World_Transfer_Agency.html">World Transfer Agency</a> logistical support, the resistance forces either fought (and died), or relocated to start the cycle anew. </p> <p>Resistance forces were led by General <a href="Petrov_van_der_Deathface.html">Petrov van der Deathface</a>, who, during the war, acquired a reputation as an unparalleled tactical genius. Though unable to directly halt the First Quartile's advance, military historians have noted that he left them over-extended to the point where a handful of strategic strikes could have crippled their military machine. Did the grand strategist have a plan to win the war? Sadly, we may never know, as van der Deathface was killed by a stray bullet at the <a href="Battle_of_Quillian_Square.html">Battle of Quillian Square</a> while attempting to bait a squad of <a href="Kindergarten_Kops.html">Kindergarten Kops</a> into charging their First Quartile allies. Within weeks of his death, the First Quartile declared victory.</p> <hr><span class="signature"><p> Sir Gareth, scholar-prince of Haven Rock</p></span> </div> <div class="content citeblock"> <p style="float:right"><a href="Collected_Writings_and_Letters_of_Ignatius_Clivowycz.html">Next →</a></p> <p><a href="Uriopoges_the_Wiseass.html">← Previous</a></p> <p>Citations: <a href="Battle_of_Quillian_Square.html">Battle of Quillian Square</a> | <a href="Double-Eighth_Hexadecisection.html">Double-Eighth Hexadecisection</a> | <a href="First_Quartile.html">First Quartile</a> | <a href="Kindergarten_Kops.html">Kindergarten Kops</a> | <a href="Order_of_the_Black_Ladder.html">Order of the Black Ladder</a> | <a href="Petrov_van_der_Deathface.html">Petrov van der Deathface</a> | <a href="World_Transfer_Agency.html">World Transfer Agency</a></p> <p>Cited by: —</p> </div> </body> </html>
