The Barony Wars (Dhimze: mylirjhiks;-desvái; 3695–3721 CY), known at the time and for more than a century after as the Civil Wars, were a series of civil wars fought over control of the Dhimze throne in the late 37th to early 38th centuries. These wars were fought between two factions of House Daghiovs, one led by ariani Arvtebi and the other by her uncle Daghi, self-proclaimed as Daghi V. Rebels in the north also joined the conflict, led by House Recinse.
The conflict began after the death of ariani Msrovs I in 3695 CY. Msrovs I's male heir, Sverit, had died in 3693 CY, leaving his daughter Arvtebi as the sole heir. Though no laws of succession forbade this, there had never been a female ariani of Dhimrai until this point. Msrovs I had named Arvtebi his heir after her brother's passing, which the ariani's brother Daghi opposed, claiming to be a more fitting successor. Following the ariani's death, Daghi and 20 members of the Dhimze Royal Guard stormed Ariani Keep in Ganipara during Arvtebi's coronation. The attempted coup d'etat was stopped, after which Daghi was imprisoned. He was later freed by a member of the court who supported him.
