The one in the intro wasn't started by Asgore (or the monster who is speculated to be him, but could be his ancestor), given that it happened when humans were wielding swords and cast spells. It was started by the humans.

The second war was declared by Asgore, out of grief, some time after 201X, but it isn't mentioned in the intro at all.
