The "Cinnamon War"?

Hey you all, I wanted to get your input and help on something. I'm working on a world for tabletop RPG and need your help to create a historical conflict. I want a conflict that will have a lasting impact and create a sort of tradition. <br>This is the basic premise of the war. <br><br>**Premise:** A war caused by a desire for cinnamon. <br><br>**"Good Guys":** A nation of hunter-gatherers who have lived in an area with plenty of cinnamon for centuries. They never realized until recently that the spice was valuable. <br><br>**"Bad Guys":** A nation of colonizers who are heavily inspired by European colonizers. They're also industrialized. <br><br>**Parameters:**<br><br>* The war is not to be symmetrical. The "Good Guys" Should be outmatched by the "Bad Guys". <br>* It should be bloody and brutal. <br>* The war should end with some sort of tradition for the "Good Guys". <br>* The war will happen in the 1800s. <br><br>Any ideas?
