First Spice War

The First Spice War was a conflict between the Principality of Gabyr and the various Pepetoka states of the Southern Reyang Peninsula. The Republic of Keldorn also took part in the war, making it one of the few external conflicts it was involved in.

Conclusion and aftermath
The devastation caused by the war - along with the plague spread by the undead - decreased production in the Pepetoka lands, which was counterproductive to the Gabyrians. While the Gabyrians managed to capture several islands and establish outposts on them, they failed to bring the peninsular Pepetoka to their knees. The Keldornish leaders suggested that they should genocide the native Pepetoka and use skeletons on spice plantations, but the Gabyrians rejected the excessive idea, citing that both Oriental and Occidental nations would be greatly alerted and would start a Crusade against both Gabyr and Keldorn. Another concern was the possibility of Týrýng interference in case Gabyr went forward with the idea.

Even though the war was only a half-success for Gabyr - failure to capture land on the peninsula proper, only a minority of Pepetoka states agreeing to sell spices to Gabyr at a cheap price, etc. - it was still considered an important learning experience, giving the Gabyrians a reason not to get Keldorn involved next time, as the usage of undead troops and their diseases have done more harm to the Gabyrian cause than help it.
