The First Imperial Civil War, (also known as The War of Unification) was the sector-wide conflict that followed the rebuilding of spike drives by House Fornax and the unveiling of a complete [Citation Needed] sector map by House Vela. The war, playfully called a "Mild Disagreement over who gets to be The Emperox" by historians, began in 2804 but was not a consistent 'hot war' for the majority of that time. It was characterized by various standoffs, assassinations, plots, diplomatic maneuvers, as well as direct and aggressive military actions. The conflict lasted 97 years until, in 2901, Empress Aquila Alejandra Ari, later known as the Blood Eagle, seized the Imperial Throne after reuniting the rest of the Empire through military conquest.
