I know that there isn't any story in the series, but they do sometimes get
into details about the setting (Merkur Era 48,650-48,794). Was there any
reason given for the ongoing (very long) war with humanity that is constantly
raging outside the manor? Or anything that can be gleaned from interviews with
writer/director Wataru Arakawa?

Why is there a war in "Fireball" and "Fireball Charming"?


There's some explanation in the Japanese Wikipedia, but the portion is
unsourced, and we can't tell if this is backed by any official stuff. Quoted
and translated below.
