The Southern Vampire Wars started around the early 1800s and engulfed most of the southern part of North America. It began when a vampire named Benito created the first newborn army to conquer other covens that controlled New Mexico and Texas. Jasper became involved in the later half of the 19th century.

History

Maria's new born army 1

Maria's newborn army in Mexico.

The Southern Vampire Wars centered around Puebla, Mexico City, where Benito had amassed his army. His tactic was so successful that most covens in the area created their own newborns to defend against him and other covens that were reacting. These wars caused such notice of death toll and fear to the local humans that the Volturi arrived to stop the rampage, fearing the exposure this might lead to and executed Benito and all other covens that experimented on newborns, effectively ending the war.

After the Volturi returned to Italy, the survivors in the South quickly laid claim to the land. It did not take long before covens were created and the wars began again. However, because the last war caused entire armies and everyone involved to be slaughtered, the new armies fought in more careful conditions to avoid a new slaughter by the Volturi. Using his idea, Maria, along with her "sisters" Lucy and Nettie, started her own army, turning Jasper, Peter, Charlotte and many others into vampires along the way. Maria quickly made Jasper her army's commander when he developed his special ability, pathokinesis. However, this tactic is still in use to this day, and Victoria adopted it in her attempt to destroy the Cullens.
