The Muttay (Tamashek: ⵎⵓⵜⵜⴰⵢ, lit. "The Change"), also known as the Charnean Revolution, was a period of civil unrest, mutiny and political revolution which took place during the summer of 2023, resulting in the overthrow of the Imperial government and the establishment of the Charnean Republic. The driving force of the upheaval was a general military uprising from within the ranks of the Charnean Army catalyzed by the death of Regent Martuf Lamine and the subsequent attempts of the civilian government to assert dominance over the Army's unruly junior officers. The Muttay has been called the "Revolution with a Cause" because of the absence of a clear movement driving the overthrow of the status quo and the creation of a new regime, a process instead governed by a constellation of different cliques and political currents within the Army. Exactly what timespan constitutes the period of the Muttay is still debated, although it is generally agreed to have ended on October 1st 2023 with the formalization of the Republic. The two common start dates are the June 7th purge of the Rangers or the June 23rd fall of Agnannet to the mutineer-revolutionaries.

The course of the Muttay can be divided into three distinct phases, consisting of the initial uprising, the ensuing collapse of the government and its institutions, followed by the eventual stabilization. The first stage was the most violent, in which Charnea flirted with outright civil war before the fall of the incumbent regime. The fallout reverberated for months, manifesting in an economic and security crisis which the Provisional Military Government (PMG) struggled to control whilst in the grips of its own internal power struggle. Crisis would be averted when the Agraw Allolan was convened in late August, beginning a final phase of intense but non-violent political struggle over the shape of the new regime which would ultimately culminate in the end of the PMG and the birth of the Republic.Although initially taking the appearance of another military coup, the second in just 10 years, the Muttay quickly evolved into a much more significant event in the course of Charnean history. The foundation of the Republic marks a seismic shift in Charnean domestic policy not seen since the rise of the Modernist movement in the 1920s.
