The '''Hegyhát Wars''' were a series of three wars fought during the Proto-Imperial between the [[Hegyhát Empire]] and a variety of [[Imperial Tribes|tribes]] for control over the region of the [[Imperial South]]. The [[First Hegyhát War]] took place specifically within the eastern region of the Imperial South, and the [[Second Hegyhát War]] was fought over the western region of the Imperial South. These two wars have constituted the [[Southern Conquest]] that encapsulated the growing expansionism and domination by the Hegyhát Empire. The [[Third Hegyhát War]] was the largest of the three where the Hegyhát Empire fought a coalition of allies led by the [[Jenő Principality]], who fought alongside the [[Eastern Kingdom]] and various Salgó states with limited involvement by the [[Northern Coalition]].

The wars originated in political strife specifically between the Imperial Tribes of the [[Hegyhát people|Hegyhát]] and the [[Kaposvár people|Kaposvár]] from [[Hegyhát-Kaposvár Proto-Imperial conflict|frequent tribal violence]]. The [[First Hegyhát War]] was a local conflict in the Imperial South, between the Hegyhát Empire and five different tribes surrounding it. The [[Second Hegyhát War]] was fought over control of the far-eastern region of the Imperial South. These two wars constituted the [[Southern Conquest]] that encapsulated the formation and subsequent expansionism of the Hegyhát Empire. The [[Third Hegyhát War]] was the largest of the three and was fought on the border of the Imperial South with the [[Imperial West]], the [[Imperial Central]], and the [[Imperial East]]. To date, the Third Hegyhát War is the largest war fought within the Proto Imperial Era and involved a coalition of allies against the Hegyhát Empire.
 
The [[First Hegyhát War]] was precipitated by several tribal conflicts instigated by Hegyhát Empire against its neighboring tribes. This escalated until the mythical [[Doryottan Kidnapping]], a series of {{wpl|mass abductions}} and {{wpl|looting|lootings}} that were committed by an organized force by the Hegyhát Empire against [[Kaposvár people|Kaposvárans]], [[Tapolca people|Tapolcans]], and the [[Szada people|Szadans]]. Most of these tribes were weak and fractured compared to the centralized Hegyhát Empire. These lootings were often violent, brutal and methodical where female Hegyhát soldiers would invade villages and murder the females within that village. Subsequently, men and children were abducted and sold off into slavery, or forcibly married to Hegyhát warriors. These men could also be sold into {{wpl|sexual slavery|slavery}}, as abducted men under the societal rules of [[Hegyhát matriarchy]].

However, many of these duchies were unorganized and led to their scattering at the [[Battle of Mezőcsát]]. The [[Looting of Csepel]] was the final battle in the war, but by that point the only remaining Duchy that had not capitulated was the Duchy of Vasad.
 
The [[Second Hegyhát War]] began when the [[Sivatag Confederation]] declared war against the Hegyhát Empire, in an effort of attempting to stop its growing expansion into the far-eastern region of the Imperial South. The Sivatag Confederation consisted of six different tribes: The [[Székely people|Székely]], [[Nagykálló people|Nagykálló]], [[Kiskálló people|Kiskálló]], [[Bagamér people|Bagamér]], [[Vén people|Vén]], and the [[Őr people|Őr]]. The Sivatag Confederation was decisively defeated, however the Hegyhát Empire was never able to fully control the regions the Sivatag possessed.

The First Hegyhát War started as a direct consequence of the [[Doryottan Kidnappings]], a series of {{wpl|mass abductions}} committed by the Hegyhát against the [[Duchy of Kaposvár]], the [[Kingdom of Tapolca]] and the [[Kingdom of Szada]]. These mass abductions targeted males within these tribes, where the female Hegyhát would abduct and {{wpl|forced marriage|forcibly marry}} them. Within [[Hegyhát matriarchy]], social rules dictated that men who are married to women lose their independence as people and turn into property of the women. Rules regarding marriage within the Hegyhát Empire stated that women could marry multiple men, but men could only marry one woman. The women who participated in these kidnappings were often single and looking for men. The First Hegyhát War was an escalation of the kidnappings, and [[Doryotta II]] called for an all out invasion of these tribes.

The Hegyhát Wars were a series of three wars fought during the Proto-Imperial between the Hegyhát Empire and a variety of tribes, primarily for control over the region of the Imperial South. The wars originated in political strife specifically between the Imperial Tribes of the Hegyhát and the Kaposvár from frequent tribal violence. The First Hegyhát War was a local conflict in the Imperial South, between the Hegyhát Empire and five different tribes surrounding it. The Second Hegyhát War was fought over control of the far-eastern region of the Imperial South. These two wars constituted the Southern Conquest that encapsulated the formation and subsequent expansionism of the Hegyhát Empire. The Third Hegyhát War was the largest of the three and was fought on the border of the Imperial South with the Imperial West, the Imperial Central, and the Imperial East. To date, the Third Hegyhát War is the largest war fought within the Proto Imperial Era and involved a coalition of allies against the Hegyhát Empire.

The First Hegyhát War was precipitated by several tribal conflicts instigated by Hegyhát Empire against its neighboring tribes. This escalated until the mythical Doryottan Kidnapping, a series of mass abductions and lootings that were committed by an organized force by the Hegyhát Empire against Kaposvárans, Tapolcans, and the Szadans. Most of these tribes were weak and fractured compared to the centralized Hegyhát Empire. These lootings were often violent, brutal and methodical where female Hegyhát soldiers would invade villages and murder the females within that village. Subsequently, men and children were abducted and sold off into slavery, or forcibly married to Hegyhát warriors. These men could also be sold into slavery, as abducted men under the societal rules of Hegyhát matriarchy. The League of Independence was established between the Kaposvár, Tapolca and Szada, with the Csemő and Vasad joining. However, many of these duchies were unorganized and led to their scattering at the Battle of Mezőcsát. The Looting of Csepel was the final battle in the war, but by that point the only remaining Duchy that had not capitulated was the Duchy of Vasad.

The Second Hegyhát War began when the Sivatag Confederation declared war against the Hegyhát Empire, in an effort of attempting to stop its growing expansion into the far-eastern region of the Imperial South. The Sivatag Confederation consisted of six different tribes: The Székely, Nagykálló, Kiskálló, Bagamér, Vén, and the Őr. The Sivatag Confederation was decisively defeated, however the Hegyhát Empire was never able to fully control the regions the Sivatag possessed. Many of these areas were unhospitable by the Hegyhát.

The Third Hegyhát War began when the Hegyhát Empire launched an invasion of the Imperial Central against the Jenő Federation, where they crossed the Csóványos Line. The Hegyhát quickly captured the Jenő cities of Kossuth and Asotthalom, but were then vastly outmatched by the Salgó Union. As the Salgó pushed back against the Hegyhát, the Hegyhát sought to then

The Third Hegyhát War began with a Hegyhát invasion of the Imperial Central, crossing the Csóványos Line and beginning the Storming of Kossuth. The invasion was precipitated over increasingly bitter negoigations between the Hegyhát and the Jenő over refugees and migrants coming from the Imperial South towards the cities of Kossuth and Ásotthalom. Word of the invasion spread quickly and the Eastern Kingdom sought to provide military aid. Furhter support was given by the Northern Coalition.

The Hegyhát Wars had significant effects for the Proto-Imperial Era, which caused the spread of the need of unificationism. It saw the radical decline of power of tribes within the Imperial South and the breakup of the Hegyhát Empire, the largest state that was ruled by a single tribe within the Proto Imperial Era. Despite their devastating loss in the Third Hegyhát War, the Hegyhát Empire was still considered a formidable state in its weakened state. Two tribes, the Székely and the Hajmáskér saw total extinction of their female population due to the Orsolyan Genocide, as their tribes were targeted by Orsolya I, the Empress of Hegyhát.
