Kemerovo:
The Conquest of Khayla (1400-1452)
Khayla came under the rule of Parbhani in 1452 following several decades of conflict. King Jafar II believed he was destined to unite Mundus under his rule and as such launched an invasion of the neighbouring Kingdom of Khayla. Jafar II failed in his ambition dying in 1422. His campaign was continued by his son Jafar III who died at the gates of the Khayla capital meaning it was his successor, King Amin III who completed the victory bringing Khayla under his command. In order to bring the new Kingdom under control Amin III had every member of the royal family executed with the exception of the Khayla's Queen who was now a widow who Amin took as his forth wife.
Kemerovo:
The Penchi War (1481-1488)
Penchi was a Kingdom that had vast supplies of silver in their hillside. The King of Parbhani at the time was King Abdollah II who received word that Penchi had dispatched envoys to other nearby Kingdoms to explore alliances against Parbhani. As such Abdollah sent his own envoy to Penchi to pursue peace this however was rejected and the envoy was killed on his ride home following an ambush. Modern historians believe this may have been by local bandits rather than the Penchi King's men. Regardless of who committed the ambush it gave Abdollah an excuse to pre-emptively attack Penchi. The conquest saw initial success by Parbhani however as Ambeh and Mora joined forces with Penchi it saw Parbhani pushed back into its own borders. There were several years of back and forth until King Abdollah II handed over control of his military due to ill health to his son Prince Mansoor who proved an excellent military commander. Mansoor accepted the surrender of those forces against him and allowed the leaders of Ambeh and Mora to return home if they executed the King of Penchi and his family with the exception of the Queen. Having witnessed these executions he took the Queen back to Parbhani were she was forced to marry King Abdollah II.
Two months after the victory King Abdollah made his son Mansoor the Rai (King) of Penchi and had him pay tribute each year to his father. King Abdollah also made his son and namesake Abdollah the Samrat of Khayla also being made to pay annual tribute. From this point forward the King of Parbhani used the title Maharajadhiraja.
Kemerovo:
The Ambeh Crusade(1589-1603)
In 1589 the King of Ambeh refused to pay any tribute to the Maharajadhiraja who at this time was Shahriar II, the King also proclaimed that Shahriar was not a God. As a result Shahriar sent a demand of the King to hand over his eldest son for execution or face war. Being a demand that Shahriar knew could not be complied with war started soon after. Parbhani armies soon began pushing back Ambeh's forces and every settlement that was conquered was given the chance to swear an oath of loyalty to Shahriar and affirm his divinity through an offering (records show his commanders would have accepted even a single grain of rice as an offering). Those who refused were harshly punished with death by sawing if male, impalement if female and children were buried alive. It is not known exactly how many died but historians estimate between 150,000-200,000 people.
Eventually in 1603 Shahriar's forces reached the capital of Ambeh and laid siege. The people fearing harsh punishment rounded up their own royal family and threw them from the city walls and allowed Shahriar to enter. While he was pleased that the city had capitulated he was upset that they had killed their Queen as he had intended to marry her. As a result he ordered that 1 in every 100 of the residents be given a gold purse of significant value to reward them for opening the city gates but that 1 in every 200 was to be thrown from the city walls for regicide.
Kemerovo:
The Mora Revolution (1733-1750)
In 1733 the people of Mora began a Revolution against their monarch King Varghese. Taking advantage of this Maharajadhiraja Ratan IV launched his own attack on Mora turning the conflict in the small Kingdom into a three way conflict. The war went through various stages as at various times the three sides paired up against the other or held uneasy peaces while fights between two nations continued. In the end the Parbhanians were victrious after an assassin removed King Mora's (who was now deceased) son, King Anil. Once Anil was dead the Kingdom of Mora was handed to a six year old monarch causing further infighting among the nobles over who should be regent. This saw the war ended a year later and Maharajadhiraja Ratan IV was victorious. As the now seven year old monarch of Mora was unmarried Maharajadhiraja Ratan IV had him marry a young Parbhani noblewoman and immediatley following the wedding ceremony had the child King beheaded before just an hour later marrying the noblewoman himself thus being able to claim to have married the Queen of Mora.
