I would concede to the fact there are no city states completely innocent in their histories or even in their current dealings, however i can't help but see the actions seen by Garlemald (up to this point) as by and far inexcusable. Should any have lore of war crimes comparable to these committed by the Ala Mhigans during the Autumn War or the it's fall feel free to educate (it's damn hard to find anything about Ala Mhigan lore, no lore book atm).

In looking back at what we were shown in 1.0 a few old adage's, "Absolute power corrupts absolutely", "A society will be judged by how it treats its weakest members."

One could argue that the conqured would be in the position of thery least of any given society.
