'''Ethnic violence in Creeperopolis''' has a long history among [[Creeperopolis]]'s seven ethnic groups. Creeperopolis has seven primary ethnic groups: the [[Creeperans]], [[Atlántidans]], [[Castillianans]], [[Senvarians]], [[Senvekians]], [[Salvadorans]], and [[Deltinians]]. The Creeperans are the dominant group accounting for 56% of the population. Conflict between the ethnicities is often caused by ethnic and religious rivalries, political anc military corruption, and political and cultural repression.

The Creeperian-Deltinian rivalry is the longest lasting and the second most tensious ethnic rivalry in Creeperopolis.

The rivalry between the Creeperans and the Deltinians has existed since the [[Deltinian-Creeperian War]] from 744AD to 745AD. During the rule of the Deltinians over the Creeperans from 745AD to 1231, violent clashes often occured due to the Deltinian rule. The Deltinians at first forced Creeperian conversion to [[Deltinian Islam]] and to adopt the Spanish language. The Creeperans did adopt Spanish, evolving into [[Creeperian Spanish]], but heavily resisted religious conversion. After years of massacres against the Creeperans, the Deltinians relented and allowed the Creeperans to freely practice [[Creeperian Catholic Church|Creeperian Catholicism]], however churches would be heavily taxed while mosques were exempt from tax. 

When the [[Creeperian Crusade|Creeperans revolted against Deltinian rule in 1231]] in response to the [[One-Religion Decree]], the Deltinians returned to killing Creeperian Catholic for refusing to convert. The Creeperans, in response, killed any Deltinian Muslims for not converting and for the centuries of repression. Each side committed mass religious ethnocide to "cleanse the land of the inferior religion" and ocassionally "the lesser race." 

The climax of Deltinian-Creeperian aggression during the Creeperian Crusade was the [[Massacre of Almadinat Almuqadasa]] where the Creeperian Crusaders slaughtered 200,000 Deltinian Muslims. The massacre and the fall of the [[Caliphate of Deltino|Deltinian]] capital, [[Almadinat Almuqadasa]], marked the end of the Caliphate and marked the start of the short reigns of the three successor emirates: [[Emirate of Abdan|Abdan]], [[Emirate of Helam|Helam]], and [[Emirate of Jakiz|Jakiz]]. Each was defested by 1350 and the fall of each capital resulted in a massacre of the Deltinian Muslims. 

After the Creeperian Crusade ended in 1365, the Deltinians were exiled to the southern departments of [[Abdan (department)|Abdan]], [[Helam (department)|Helam]], and [[Jakiz (department)|Jakiz]]. From 1365 to 1565, the Deltinians ocassionally revolted against the Creeperans in attempts to spark a ''[[Deltinian Jihad]]'' as retaliation for the Creepeperian Crusade. The [[Deltinian War]], [[Ten Years' War]], and [[Twenty Years' War]] all ended in massacres of the Deltinians. By 1565, the Deltinian population had fallen from 100 million in 1231 to 1 million. 

During the [[First Parliament of Creeperopolis|First Parliamentary Era]], the Deltinians enjoyed ease and respresentation in parliament, often voting for the [[Liberal Party (Creeperopolis)|Liberal Party]]. 

From 1565-1933, the Deltinians were treated peacefully and the minority prospered. However, during the [[Creeperian Civil War]], 2 million Deltinians died. The most famous massacre was the 1944 [[Denshire Massacre]] where [[Militarist Nationalist Front|Sombra Negra]] killed over 5,000 Deltinians. The Deltinians [[Exile of the Deltinians (1949)|were exiled in 1949 south]] to the [[Deltino (department)|department of Deltino]]. 

[[File:Catatumbo trancazo.png|thumb|right|The [[Battle of Rushdi]] marked the beginning of the [[Deltinian Insurgency]].]]

During the [[Creeperian Conflicts]], the Deltinians were mistreated by all beligerents: the [[Creeperian Armed Forces]], [[Militarist Nationalist Front]], [[Senvarian Liberation Front]], [[Militarist Front for National Liberation]], and [[Mara Salvatrucha]]. After 70 years of constant oppression by four different ethnic groups, the Deltinians snapped. A Deltinian religious figure, [[Kanaan el-Bashir]], declared jihad on all six opposing ethnic groups in Creeperopolis beginning the [[Deltinian Insurgency]]. He declared the [[Emirate of Deltio]] and has ambissions to reestablish the caliphate. In response, the [[Deltinian Liberation Army]] and the [[Deltinian Peoples' Defense Militia]] joined the jihad. El-Bashir claimed that all 100,000 Deltinians were willing to fight for the liberation of the oppressed Deltinians.

Following a cease fire amongst the FAC, SLF, FRENAMI, MS, and FMLN, the DLA and DPDM made claims and allegations that all five beligerents are commiting war crimes and genocide against the Deltinians in what is called the ''[[Deltinian Genocide]]''.{{citation needed}}
