In 908 ST, Dara Happa is under the rule of the Dragon Sun. He is killed two years later by Karvanyar who seeks aid from the Carmanians. Insofar as the Carmanians are marching, they are marching through Darjiin against the EWF.
910 - Dragon Sun dies. Karvanyar controls Yuthuppa.
912 - Carmanians conquer eastern Doblian.
913 - Karvanyar gains control over Raibanth.
914 - After a battle near Alkoth, the Carmanians fall out with Dara
Happa.
915 - The Carmanians conquer Darjiin.
920 - Alkoth acknowledges Karvanyar as Emperor.
921 - Dara Happa conquers Sylila
923 - Dara Happa conquers Vanch
924 - Dara Happa conquers Mirin's Cross
925 - Dara Happa conquers Vanch. Karvanyar makes peace
with the EWF and then marches north against the
nomads.
947 - EWF counterattack.
Now the exact nature of the split between the Carmanians and the Dara Happans is not clear but probably involves a dispute about the spoils of battle. Afterwards the Carmanians split their time between fighting the EWF and fighting in Fronela against the God Learners.
The War between the Carmanians and the Dara Happans doesn't start until 975 and doesn't conclude until 1173 and that's far more complicated.
