The Gidareig (English: Reign of Justice), referred officially in Stedoria as the Post-Revolutionary Reorganisation Process (Stedorian: Dönunoganükam Poslevolutik), was a period of the Second Stedorian Revolution following the military coup against Kelvön dynasty and the creation of the Self-Defence Government of the Stedorian Republic during which a series of political purges, massacres, vigilante killings, and executions took place in response to revolutionary fervour and a desire by the Self-Defence Government to eliminate perceived counterrevolutionaries within Stedoria's governmental institutions.
Immediately following the Self-Defence Government's creation, mass arrests and various summary executions were carried out against former members of the Fatherland Front, royalist politicians, individuals perceived to be affiliated the Kelvön dynasty, and officers within the Stedorian Armed Forces believed to be unsympathetic to the revolution. The Self-Defence Government also encouraged citizens to form community-based tribunals to carry out justice in the form of vigilantism, resulting in various instances of killings and massacres against those believed to support the former monarchy.
Following the holding of free elections, significant and mounting international pressure in response to the killings, and the disestablishment of the Self-Defence Government to create the current People's Republic, then newly-elected Chief Consul Tamäj Köseg declared that revolutionary justice had been fulfilled, and that community-based tribunals were to dissolve themselves, thus marking the end of the Gidareig.
The exact number of those killed still remains unknown to this day; the Stedorian government has refused to release court and justice records from the period, citing privacy concerns. Most historians and experts, however, believe there to have been at least approximately 22,000 killed in instances of revolutionary justice and vigilantism.
