The Selucian-Cildanian Wars was a series of four wars between the emerging Qedarite Empire and the Selucian city-states across the Majatran Sea that lasted for more than a hundred years and led to the establishment of Cildanian hegemony over the shores of Majatra. The wars were a result of conflict between Qedarite and Selucian city-states over control of the western Majatran Sea, where both had established a large number of colonies.
