There was a (actually several) wars over the Triforce, and then Rauru seals it away by constructing the Temple of Time. The Interloper War (which is actually several conflicts) took place when the word of the Sacred Realm spread. Rauru sealed the Sacred Realm when people already knew of, and had fought over, the Triforce. Ergo, the Interloper War took place before the sealing of the Sacred Realm.

But Lanayru clearly states that word spread through Hyrule which means Hyrule was already established by the time the interloper war happened. According to the timeline, the sacred realm was sealed before Hyrue Kingdom was established. If the interloper war was before the sealing, how could it happen in Hyrule if Hyrule doesn't exist yet?
Also, that Hyrule Historia quote says there was a neverending struggle. You can't derive several great wars from a neverending struggle, that's a pretty big leap. Especially since only one great war was recorded before OoT (the HCW)
