History[edit | edit source]
The South Geclarian Union was organized out of the Southern half of Ceironian Occupied Thrax in August 2524, a result of the West Alaxian War, when the Coalition (Ceironia, Fazar, Jimaria) had successfully won against the West Alaxian United Front. After the fall of Thrax, it's territory was divided into four: North Geclaria and South Geclaria nomically became new countries with civilian governments, and the other portions became Fazarian and Jimarian Occupied Thrax. The Geclarian States are still currently ran by Ceironian provisional governments, with plans to eventually allow local elections and government in both countries.
Oil Crisis of 2525[edit | edit source]
In 2525, the South Geclarians were distraught and without a place to go. Lots of men had been killed in the war, and damage to infrastructure left unemployment rates higher than ever; causing a lack of basic supplies like food, electricity, and water. Most Geclarians were still loyal to the idea of a unified Thrax, and around the newly formed country, protests and riots began rising. This would result in the Ceironian army intervening, leading the protests to escalate. By the end of the ordeal, a single casualty had been reported, alongside over one hundred injured.
In sympathy with the injured protestors and in mourning upon the singular death by the Ceironian army, many Geclarian workers would choose to go on strike. The strike would be specially impactful in the Petroleum industry, as shipyard workers started refusing certain shipments and many couldn't operate the shipyards at all. The winter would eventually come, and without sufficient heating alongside food, 6,209 deaths would result by either famine or freezing.
Hostage in the New Farbanti stadium[edit | edit source]
From January to March of 2526, the Geclarians began recovering from the harsh winter of the previous year, especially economically. As a result of a initial economic rise, many stopped their ongoing protests and strikes, resulting in the alertness of the Ceironian army eventually going down. That was until the 4th of June, 2526. Twelve armed terrorists had taken hostage all 1,510 spectators of a ongoing katabola match in New Farbanti. The hostages would be held for five days until one of the hostage takers couldn't take it anymore and ran outside to surrender to the Ceironian military. The others followed quickly until there was only a single terrorist left, who was killed by the military. Fourteen of the hostages did not survive the crisis, killed either by homicide or health situations.
