The Hegyhát Wars were three separate conflicts fought during the Proto-Imperial Era between the Hegyhat Empire and various unorganized tribes within the Imperial South over the expansion of the Hegyhat Empire. The first was fought over the control of the modern day megye of Kaposvar, the second war was fought over control of the megyek of Nagykallo and Kiskallo. The third war was the only war that fought outside of the Imperial South over control of the megye of Keszthely, where the Hegyhat Empire fought against the Jeno Coalition and its allies.

The first two wars began on orders of the Empress of Hegyhat that caused the Hegyhat Empire to garner an extremely negative reputation as untrustworthy. The Third Hegyhat War also began on orders of the Empress of Hegyhat to address concerns of ethnic Hegyhat people and their treatment by the Jeno. The invasion caused a suddern outpour of support from the Felfold Confederation, the Northern Coalition and the Eastern State, three powerful countries that helped the Jeno Coalition against the Hegyhat Empire.

The First Hegyhat War and the Second Hegyhat War were both considered to be total Hegyhat victories against the disorganized tribes and the annexation of tribal territories. The Hegyhat victories solidified the position of the Hegyhat as the most powerful state within the Proto-Imperial Era until their defeat in the Third Hegyhat War. The loss at the Third Hegyhat War signaled the downfall of the Hegyhat Empire and its inability to truly go against a unified force. After the end of the war, the Hegyhat Empire began to engage in diplomacy.

The Hegyhat Wars created huge shifts in culture and demographs within the Imperial South. The annexation of the areas around Kaposvar, Nagykallo and Kiskallo had extremely detrimental effects on the demographics of those regions. Hegyhat matriarchy on a social scale saw the decreasing female population of certain tribes alongside a rising female Hegyhat population. The most affected by these tribes were the Székely people and the Hajmáskér people, the Székely females being the primary target of the Orsolyan Genocide and the Hajmáskér people suffering from the Kaposvar Exodus.
