The Great Northern Divide

The war of the Great Northern Divide was a series of conflicts between the two world superpowers at that time; Kazabeer and Klepjur during the Age of Egress era in (TBA-TBA). It was an intense power struggle that dictated the future outcome of who would become a global superpower, and was one of the main causes of the War of Princes which was a civil war that occurred in Klepjur as result from the pressure.

Background and Cause
Kazabeer was amidst a cultural revolution as it transformed from from a mere collection of united cities, pastures and farms into a super-efficient economic state. Part of the reason for the cultural shift was that the country's jealousy over Klepjur's flourishing economy and progressive technology. Kazabeer at first gladly obliged with helping Klepjur to progress while in return getting some money for its resources, but now that they saw the other nation benefiting from their resources greatly, they realized they would've done the same thing if they had just used their own resources to progress their own technology.

Kazabeer was putting less and less focus on exporting for Klepjur and began using its own resources to progress technology and trade. It decreased labor costs and began diplomacy with other countries such as with Trunklund and Keshterika to progress its economy further and soon rivaled Klepjur surprisingly quickly. However, Trunklund and Keshterika soon began to grow mistrustful with the two countries as they had a growing suspicion that they were being exploited, especially with growing fears of being globalized, as Klepjur in the past exploited other economies the nation had previously held alliances with. They didn't want what ended up with Klepjur to happen with their relationship with Kazabeer, seeing as Kazabeer would use Klepjur's strategies as part of their expansionist policies. Both would soon stop their alliance with Kazabeer as they no longer saw them as a trustworthy partner anymore to associate relations with.

It was then when the Gusullar documents were leaked did it cause global outrage, especially within the Northern Regions. The Gusullar documents detailed of secret plans to try to illegally annex parts of Keshterika's and Trunklund's territory as part their growing desire for expansionism and power. It was uncovered by Klepjurian spies (who were tasked to find incriminating documents relating to Kazabeer) as part of Klepjur's growing desperation to maintain global dominance by causing their biggest rival to gain controversy.

After a series of growing border terrorist attacks by a rebel group named the Elruki Defenders which led to their capture and execution, it would seem that the growing tensions of both countries wound up so tight that it ended in The Great Northern Divide. The last straw was the assasination of Kazabeeran government official Kazef Aljuro by extremist Klepjurian nationalist Vanus Tetarus, who before that worked as a journalist.
