Great clans wars

Military action

When the dwarves' mines ran out of metal or were overrun by goblins, their only choice was to abandon their homes and venture through the other clans territories, thus waging war on Valeknaar.

After the dwarves had created their clans and their mines, they stayed secluded for millenia, until one by one all had ran out ressources.   This was not rare, and they usually did not encounter any problem setting up a new mine, however they eventually needed to seek a new refuge after their whole territory had been completely dried out.   This lead them to the realms of the other clans, who did not take kindly to those intrusions. Terrible wars for territories took place, clans went extinct, while the dwarves pushed continued to migrate further north.   After the final battle took place, a chief was, for the first time in dwarven history, crowned king of all dwarves, ending every war they were fighting at once.
