The Patyrian Revolutions, also known as the Thirteen Years' War, were a period of social, political, and cultural upheaval in much of Patyria from 1858 to 1871. Historians classify it as a revolutionary wave that resulted in significant sociopolitical changes in many Patyrian states combined with some decolonization abroad. The period generally saw a surge in nationalism, liberalism, and democratization on the continent.
The end of the Caberran Wars in 1827 left Patyria in a precarious social and geopolitical situation. While monarchies had been restored all over Patyria after Tierada's defeat, the revolutionary ideals exported by Tierada to the continent had not been vanquished. The nobility became increasingly discontent with prevailing royal absolutism. The middle and lower classes were dissatisfied by the inequality, pollution, and overpopulation created by the Industrial Revolution.
