A war of succession or succession war is a war prompted by a succession crisis in which two or more individuals claim the right of successor to a deceased or deposedmonarch. The rivals are typically supported by factions within the royal court. Foreign powers sometimes intervene, allyingthemselves with a faction. This may widen the war into one between those powers.
