The Age of War is a name given to a period that was characterized by large-scale warfare. This was sparked in 2398 when the Free Worlds League and Capellan Confederation went to war over the Andurien system.
A particularly fierce battle for Tintagel in 2412 prompted eight nations to sit down and sign the Ares Conventions. The Conventions limited warfare in many ways, including fighting outside of urban areas and restricting the use of NBC weaponry. This had the unintended effect of sanitizing warfare and turning it into an acceptable method of settling disputes, leading to the long era of protracted bloodshed.
The Age of War came to close when the Terran Hegemony negotiated a settlement, ironically between the League and Confederation over Andurien. Though they signed this agreement in 2556, 2550 is traditionally considered the end of the Age of War.
