Major Conflicts
Hyrulean Civil War Personally I think it is not very clear when the war ended. Did it end the year Link's mother died or maybe a bit later? I think it is implied in HH though that it started before the year Link was born: "The war in Hyrule Kingdom continued unabated for countless eras. In the midst of the confusion, a lone woman fled the fires of war, babe in arms, and escaped to the forbidden forest." Zeldafan1982 12:07, 27 August 2012 (EDT)

Imprisoning War Well this section in HH is even more vague and fans are interpreting it in different ways. One interpretation is that the sages put a seal on Ganon (HH: "Then, Ganon was successfully locked up in the sealing void the six sages opened in the Sacred Realm.") but the entrance to the Dark World was left open and only closed "many years later" (Era: many years later) at the Imprisoning War. HH says though that "In the intense battle, most of the knights perished; however, the sages completed the spell and the entrance to the sacred realm was once again closed." and also why would the sages leave the entrance open? In my view the entrance was closed, shortly afterwards people started to search for an entrance but it was after many years that the seal broke and they managed to enter. Evil started flowing and then we have the IW. I'm not sure if the latter view is correct, but according to the ALttP manual the people's entry, the evil flowing and the war that ensued seem to occur concurrently: (Zethar's translation) "Yet, Ganon's evil made it to even Hyrule as it spread. People of greed were herded and consumed by this power, and disappeared. Black clouds grew in number in the sky, and many sinister happenings began to occur. The King of Hyrule called upon the Seven Sages of Hyrule, as well as the Knights to seal the source of this evil." Zeldafan1982 12:07, 27 August 2012 (EDT)


 * There won't be nearly as much up for fan interpretation when the English HH comes out. Hopefully we'll be able to clear things up then. 12:17, 27 August 2012 (EDT)

Spirit War About Anjean, HH says on page 134 that "In ancient times, this sage of the Lokomo tribe were sent to the land by the spirits of good. She guards the Spirit Tower and is acquainted with the pirate Tetra." Given that the Lokomos departed when Malladus was killed it seems that they were sent to keep Malladus imprisoned. "Ancient times" means at least some hundred years, so I don't think the war was concluded shortly before the new settlers arrived. Zeldafan1982 15:32, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

Grooseland
Why does a joke in SS deserve a mention in the intro? It's not that I don't like it, it is simply not important enough to be mentioned in the intro. Also, it's not a canon name of the land, because it is used only by Groose. Zeldafan1982 (talk) 03:49, 31 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Answer: it doesn't. A single character calls it that. In the face of ten other games calling Hyrule, one charater's pet name doesn't really merit a mention in the intro. Champion of Nayru (talk) 04:17, 31 December 2013 (UTC)
