Ok, from the spoilers I have seen:

- The Vale King was badass and took out an entire army and the Grimm in the area on his own. He was probably Ozpin.

- Mistral tried to get Vacuo on their side and Vacuo said no?

- Mantle and Mistral tried to steal Vacuo's Dust mines and the King of Vale was like "B*tch, you thought." (Was this before or after what we were told on the Vacuo WoR about the other kingdoms ransacking the Vacuo Oasis?)

1. Mantle were apparently the only ones with guns during the war, the war on creativity started in Atlas because none of them ever watched the Star Wars prequels to see how emotional suppression tends to work out.

2. Mistral forced their poor to go along with it so they could get weapons while their aristocrats continued being opulent twats.

3. Also the island above Sanus is called Vytal and it's where the post-war peace talks were held.

1. Or Equilibrium or ever even read the backcover one of the tens of dystopian novels about that.

2. No wonder the idea of starting a new kingdom could get enough traction.

3. I think that was already said back in a V3 WoR about the Vytal Festival?

I want to know more about Vacuo lady, I like that it looks like she is wearing nothing but a scarf. (And yes, I'm aware the Vale King looks like he is wering nothing but a cape... but a cape can at least be wrapped around your body to cover it fully.)

As for her title? Maybe she was the leader of a tribe village that sticked around the original Oasis/where the Academy was later founded. Or she was elected among the leaders of all/most of Vacuo's villages to lead Vacuo's forces.

Or maybe this was when the centralised government disbanded.
