What were the consequences of the war between Akish and his sons?

Thomas R. Valletta

“A war of the most horrible character broke out, which lasted for several years, and ended when nearly every soul was slain. Of the Kingdom of Akish, for which he had sinned so much, there remained but thirty souls. All the rest—men, women, and children, had been swept by bloody hands into untimely graves. The people of Akish having been thus destroyed, Omer, with his friends, returned from his exile and reigned over the feeble remnant of a wasted people” (Reynolds and Sjodahl, Commentary on the Book of Mormon, 6:136).
