The '''Kharidian Desert Campaign''' is an unofficial name given to a prolonged period of battles and skirmishes that occurred during the late [[Third Age]] as part of the cataclysmic [[God Wars]]. The Campaign was amongst the most violent and devastating of the God Wars, and saw some of the most intense conflict of the period.

Unlike the rest of [[Gielinor]], the Kharidian Desert managed to avoid most conflict during the first 3,000 Years of the God Wars. It was only during the last thousand years of the Wars that primarily [[Saradomin]]ist and [[Zamorak]]ian military forces began to invade the region searching new land and resources. Although the forces that entered the region initially focused mainly on fighting each other, the native [[Menaphite]] people were often slain in the battles and eventually became the direct target of mainly Zamorakian hostilities.

The Campaign saw a massive decline of the Menaphite civilization and further destabalization of the [[Menaphite Pantheon]]. Virtually all existing Menaphite civilization was wiped out during the Campaign, including ancient cities such as [[Uzer]] and [[Ullek]]. However, [[Sophanem]] managed to survive the wars and so did [[Nardah]] which was established during the campaign.

*Northern Kharidian Desert Campaign: [[Zamorak]]'s united forces raze the north of the desert, before splitting up and marching both south and east.
*[[Battle of Uzer]]: The Elder Demon Thammaron's forces attack the city of [[Uzer]], but are ultimately defeated when Thammaron falls to the attacks of a Golem and the remainder of the army is hunted down by the [[Mahjarrat]] [[Azzanadra]]
*[[Battle of Ullek]]: Demon [[Balfrug Kreeyath]] assaults [[Ullek]], the most prosperous city in the southern desert and razes it to the ground.
