The Rebellion of 1805 was a rebellion in the Empire of Vionna by south Vionnan nobles supported by rebels in Frankenlisch led by Lork Akehurst. The Vionnan loyalist forces in Frankenlisch were led personally by Empress Cerly while her husband, Prince Raul of Berchtenstein commanded her southern armies in the field. In Vionna the rebels were led by the Duke of Larkinge. As is common with smaller, failed rebellions throughout history, there is little information about the Rebellion of 1805 and the majority of first-hand accounts come from the diaries, letters and military dispatches of Sir Olaf Erikssen, a rebel officer from the north of Vionna, almost all of these doccuments survive to this day in the Imperial Archives.
