Guys, y'all don't understand. They're not fighting bcz of sugarrhksk. They're gonna fight over the RIGHT to sugar. Even in our world, sugar was monopolized by the rich. If the value of sugar falls, the whole economy (of the entire empire/kingdom) will change and subsequently, the luxurious lives of the southern nobility will change too. Sugar is one of their MAIN exports, they're gonna take a huge hit if the north can also produce sugar. It's very well depicted here actually, it's not JUST SUGAR, it's the whole political landscape being shown to us.
