The Delsolan Civil War (1597-1610) was a series of armed conflicts between the Odakards and Consulars within The Republic of Delsola over, principally the manner of its government. The war pitted the Odakards, supporters of the High Elect at the time, Eranin Odak against the Consulars led by Josef Lorne who sought the remove Odak, who they saw as increasingly despotic in his attempts to centralise power around his own office. The war effectively ended with the Odakard recapture of Titanusan in 1609, however resistance continued throughout the country, until the declaration of unconditional surrender by the remaining Consulars on January 1st 1610.
The overall outcome of the war saw Odak dissolve the remaining members of the Delsolan Consulate and declare the Commonwealth of Delsola, with himself as Lord Protector. The legislature was replaced by the State Assembly which effectively became little more than a legitimising agent for Odak's newfound power, which became increasingly comparable with continental Asuran Kings.
