Archenland Conflict

The Archenland Conflict was a brief international crisis occurring in Narnian-year 1014.

Prelude
During the Golden Age of Narnia, the monarchs of Narnia, the Pevensies, made an attempt to establish peace with the southern nation of Calormen. To do this, Queen Susan and King Edmund traveled to Tashbaan to negotiate. During this time, Queen Susan was being courted by Prince Rabadash, the son of the Tisroc of Calormen. Eventually, Susan rejected his advances. Realizing that Rabadash might try to force Susan to marry him, they secretly left.

Rabadash was furious. He begged his father to invade and destroy Narnia. The Tisroc, who feared that the Pevensies wielded strong magic (thinking this was how they defeated the White Witch), refused. Rabadash then came up with a plan: he would lead a small army through the country of Archenland on Narnia's southern border. After conquering it, he and his army would invade Narnia and abduct Queen Susan and the Tisroc could later conquer Narnia if he wished. The Tisroc approved the plan, but it secretly made no difference to him if Rabadash succeeded or died.

Conflict
What no one knew was the Calormenes' plans were discovered by two travelers: Aravis, a Calormen noblewoman fleeing her home, and Shasta, the long lost Archenland Prince Cor. After discovering the plan, they fled north to warn Archenland's King Lune of the coming danger. They managed to stay one step ahead of Rabadash's army.

Shasta eventually reached his father (though he didn't know who King Lune was) and told him of the Calormen attack. The battle occured at Archenland's capital Anvard. A combined Narnian-Archenland army destroyed the Calormen army and captured Rabadash, ending the conflict.

Aftermath
To punish Rabadash, Aslan cursed him by turning him into a donkey. Rabadash was cured when he returned to Tashbaan, but the curse would resume if he ever went farther than ten miles from Tashbaan.

Shasta was found to be Prince Cor, and was restored to his rightful place as the heir to the throne of Archenland.
