The Pig War is a Latin poem written by a Flemish Dominican monk, under the pseudonym Publius Porcius. The text was first printed in Antwerp in 1530. The poem started out as a satire of student life in Leuven and was initially meant for a local audience in Catholic Belgium but, soon after being published, it also achieved popularity in Germany and elsewhere.
