| - | Between 4549 and 4608 the [[Paragons]] and the [[Dratch]] were involved in a series of skirmishes across the [[Inner Belt]]. Ideologically the two powers were very different, leaving few opportunities for agreement or compromise. The conflict was mainly driven by various territorial disputes. | ||
