I've noticed that when you start Fortress mode, the world explodes into war. What are the differences between how wars start in worldgen and during fortress mode? What would you say is the intended median wars per civ per year in each mode?For context of where the game's at now, here are the before-and-after-embarkation war counts of the civs in my most recent (42.06) world, leaving out kobolds. I embarked in spring 300 and retired in spring 305. Please keep in mind that each war is being counted twice, once for each civ involved.

Total wars 1-299: 23 wars across 18 civs across 300 years = 0.00426 wars/civ/year
Total wars 300-304: 117.5 wars across 11 civs across 5 years = 2.14 wars/civ/year
Yeah, somehow I came up with an odd number of wars in the 5 year period. It's almost certainly an error on my part, but this took a while even with Legends Viewer, the numbers are so different that a couple wars here or there are insignificant, and I need to go to bed.
