The Elbonian Wars, sometimes referred to as the Great Coalition War, was a series of military conflicts fought between the Elbonian Empire and its allies, namely the Triangular Empire, against various military alliances formed to end Elbonian and Triangular domination in the region. The roots of the conflict were laid down following Hecklian victory in the Heckel-Cleves War (1624-1688), in which the victorious Lutvig II proclaimed the formation Elbonian Empire and beginning the period of Elbonian domination.

Upon the unification of Elbonia and the proclamation of the Elbonian Empire, the ambitious Lutvig II wants to expand the fledgling empire into a regional power player. This expansionist attitude saw the Elbonian Empire invade and annex many of its neighbors, securing its position in the region, as well as saw rivalries develop with its eventual ally the Triangular Empire as well as Gianlucaland, which has interest in the region.

Elbonian victories were decisive in cementing Elbonia's regional power, and early on in the war, Elbonia remained undefeated thanks to its use of cunning tactics and strategies. However, the Second Algarian War (1744-1782) would see, for the first time, the war would reach a stalemate, and the later War of the Eastern Hall (1758-1759) would see Elbonia for the first time be defeated in combat. Its defeat in the War of the Eastern Hall would prove decisive in shattering the image of Elbonian invincibility, as well as the later victories of the coalition in the war.

The nail to the coffin of the Elbonian Empire would come in 1806, when it, with the backing of the Triangular Empire, declared war on Lichtenburg-Rhineland as retaliation for the latter's involvement and support towards Sunland in the Seventeenth Sunlandic War (1762-1815). This declaration of war would see other nations within the Weissersteiner Commonwealth, a commonwealth of nations who were in personal union with the Gianlucian Empire, join the war in support of Lichtenburg-Rhineland, sparking the Weissersteiner War of Unification.

The war's end would be on 11 November 1815, when the treaties of X and Y were signed between the coalition forces, the Elbonian Empire, and the Triangular Empire. These treaties ended both nations' domination in the region and hailed the beginning of Weisserstein's domination. The treaty of Y also proved vital in the rise to power of the Father States in Ikaranara, which saw the treaty as a humiliation and uses it to justify overthrowing the Triangular Empire's ruling monarchies of Ikarn, Narus, and Ranaras in 1895.
