La bataille de Vavalya (the Battle of Vavalya) From 1000 BC to 950 BC the Bendirian Kingdom participated in raiding the small communities of the Numinueux on the Isle of la Tondelle. These raids were small in nature and were content with stealing food, goods, and money from the seaside villages. The Numineux appeared disunited and weak and were unable to mount an adequate defense against the raids. Sensing their weakness, the Bendirian Kingdom gathered a fleet of over a hundred ships to transfer their large army to the Isle of la Tondelle and complete the conquest they had begun nearly 200 years before.
