Not really a theory about the whole thing, just a suspicion that it ended when RWBY were young. I was thinking the first two or three years of the oldest members. Early enough in their loves to where it is not really something they remember, but still allowing for it to have their influenced their experiences.

Raven being a spy could mean the reason she left Yang was to carry out some undercover mission within Faunus operations, being the natural choice as a Faunus. Then there is an obvious reason why she might have stayed away. Perhaps, Raven caught wind of something more going on behind the conflict and continued on with her mission.

Alternatively, perhaps Raven was spying during the war, but she learned she was pregnant and returned home, only for those she infiltrated to learn of her betrayalor come close to learn of it. To avoid them coming after her family she fled and has been silently fighting against those people ever since.
