	Culturally, Munda is a strange split off from the [Mistense] culture that originated in Anneimd. Though this is not readily apparent from its architecture and customs, the Cult of the Flood that drives Mundan architecture, tradition, and diplomacy flows from worship of the Mistenist Divine Being Adamastor, who rules over the seas. In Mistenist myth, Adamastor perpetually clashes with Baco, who rules over the land. Mundans seek to end the current era of peace between Baco and Adamastor by bringing about the next Calamity, through which they believe Adamastor will reign victorious and flood all of Cinder.

	===War Against Ashannar===		===War Against Ashannar===

	~~(Work in progress)~~		On the morning of Day 12 of the war, Ashannar launched its invasion from Durial, taking the settlement of Magma without resistance. bca_ retreated into Fort Munda, preparing for a prolonged siege. Despite the loss, Munda reaffirmed its conditions for Ashannari surrender: recognition of Munda’s sovereignty, the return of occupied land, and a symbolic Heart of the Sea.

	~~First~~ battle ~~(Day 12 morning): Magma falls~~.		In the second battle that afternoon, Ashannari forces escalated their offensive, constructing a makeshift siege tower of netherrack and dirt in Attalica under suppressive bowfire from Fort Munda. Sol Aureus used the tower to leap over the fort’s walls, killing bca_ and capturing it. Ashannar declared victory, looting all of Munda. bca_ fled westward to the island of Dagma.

	~~Second battle (Day 12 afternoon): Ashannari siege warfare takes~~ Fort Munda. Ashannar ~~declares victory. Munda reiterates terms.~~		Over the following weeks, bca_ remained in hiding, constructing Fort Dagma just south of Attalica while slowly rebuilding Munda. Over this time, Ashannar was weakening and many of its members were preparing to leave for other territories. On Day 70, with Munda’s strength renewed and Ashannar in decline, bca_ declared war once more, standing by the original surrender terms.

	~~All~~ of ~~Munda was looted, bca_ fled west~~ to ~~Dagma.~~

	~~Construction of Fort Dagma~~.

	~~Redeclaration of war (~~Day 70).

	===War Against Adraria===		===War Against Adraria===

	~~Third battle (Day 86):~~ Ashannar~~/Adraria joint forces lose Isussa and Attalica; Mundan forces are repelled~~ from ~~Fort~~ Munda.		As Ashannar withdrew from the Mondego Lakes, the Adrarian Ascendancy sought to claim its former holdings, including Munda. This led to an alliance between Ashannar and Adraria in defense of Ashannar's Mondego island territory, setting the stage for the next phase of the war.

	~~Fourth battle (~~Day ~~93): Adraria use~~ Ashannari ~~siege tactics to take~~ Fort Munda. ~~Adraria declares victory~~. Munda ~~reiterates terms~~.		On Day 86, Mundan forces seized Isussa and Attalica before the Ashannari and Adrarian joint forces could reinforce them, but were repelled from Fort Munda. Control of the fort shifted multiple times during the battle, ultimately remaining in Adrarian hands. A foreign volunteer briefly fought for Munda but arrived late and poorly equipped. Following the battle, bca_ vowed that Munda would resist Adraria for as long as it had resisted Ashannar.

	Day ~~96: Ashannar formally dissolves~~		On Day 93, Adraria, having learned Ashannari tactics, constructed a siege tower inside Fort Munda, deploying it to capture Fort Dagma. Simultaneously, Adrarian forces arrived quickly enough to reinforce Magma and Fort Munda before either could be captured. With the fall of its last and only settlement, Munda was once again forced westward, retreating to Split Island to regroup. While the war was set to continue, both sides recognized that a definitive military victory was unlikely. Brief peace negotiations failed to yield a treaty.

	Day ~~97:~~ Adraria ~~declares~~ peace treaty ~~and describes~~ Munda as the Formerly Independent Republic of Munda (FIROM).		On Day 96, Ashannar formally dissolved, ceding its remaining holdings to Adraria. The following day, Adraria unilaterally declared a peace treaty, describing Munda as the Formerly Independent Republic of Munda (FIROM). The treaty allowed for the renewed flooding of the Mondego lakes, and for bca_ to return to Munda. The treaty was never formally signed, but still effectively ended the war.

	By early August the tidings of war were apparent.

As a result, Mundans began work on Fort Munda as a safe location in case of a prolonged siege. This and an obstinate attitude towards foreigners only increased scrutiny however, and soon two wars would begin.		By early August the tidings of war were apparent.

	This act was interpreted as a declaration of war, as per the sign. Danrejk was quickly attacked and fled the scene.

	Following the incident with Danouvia, the Ashannari Empire declared war on Munda under the pretext of quelling a "minor rebellion." This action violated the prior verbal agreement between Munda and Ashannar, which had maintained peace in the region. While the Ashannari dismissed Munda—not directly mentioning Munda in the declaration and scrubbing the island from later maps—bca_ emphasized Munda's resolve to resist aggression. Munda offered terms of surrender to Ashannar, demanding recognition of Munda’s sovereignty, the return of any occupied lands, and a symbolic Heart of the Sea.
