Territorial Wars (Part 2)

"Tell me more about this… territory war." Althea paused, "And, has this always been the case?" 

Brenda looked at the lord's face and saw that she was really not angry, she composed the answer in her head and responded. 

"Territory wars are inter-territory fights that have been happening for millennia.

"My father had taught me that wars had been going on since the time of our ancestors. It was the natural way of life back then. 

"Plundering, murder, and theft were common practices and were considered common sense at the time—regardless of the race.

"But the wars had gotten so bad that over half the population died. This was some thousands of years ago, I believe." 

"Led by the elves, the Concordium began and limited the waging of wars to a maximum of twelve times a year, or once a month. There was also a day required to warn the territory being attacked, so no there are no real surprise attacks.
