The Guild Wars were a period in the history of humans in Tyria. They were wars among different Guilds in the human kingdoms of Orr, Ascalon and Kryta. The wars ended when the Charr invasion drew the human races togther in defence of a greater threat from the north.

The Guild Wars lasted for more than 50 years (from 1013 AE until 1070 AE), causing much suffering and hatred between the inhabitants of the kingdoms. These old wounds are still evident, most notably in King Adelbern's mistrust of Kryta's willingness to help Ascalon recover from the Charr invasion.

There have been many Guild Wars, but when characters in the game speak of the Guild Wars, they refer to this last war.
