. The War of Seven Provinces was an armed conflict between Laeralian and Maximusian forces. The war began in 1875 when Laeralian settlers who had migrated southward from the province of Bethune came into conflict with settlers from Libertas Omnium Maximus. After Bethune provincial militia fired upon the Maximusian settlers, war broke out and Maximusian regulars were called in. As Laeral possessed only a limited national military at the time, and many of Laeral's wealthier northern provinces opposed the war, only the forces of seven provinces would actually be involved in the conflict. Laeralian forces were defeated, and the areas comprising modern Lematre and Brissac provinces were ceded to Libertas Omnium Maximus in the 1877 Treaty of Legrange."
