Beginning in 1957, the Empire of Exponent began an intensive de-Gallicization that sought to eliminate the Gallic identity that was prevalent in much of Cote d'Cuivre, and return to Hesperidesian roots. This de-Gallicization was fiercely resisted by members of the Cuivran elite, and many began petitioning Berique first assistance.
Beginning in 1958, the government of Berique began covertly supplying Cuivran resistance movements. Propaganda, heavily funded by Berique, focused heavily on the rejection of Imperial rule- something which began to be received not only by the Cuivran elite, but so by the Hesperidesian Native groups that made up the majority of the nation as well. Widespread student movements began in earnest in 1959, and a heavy campaign of civil disobedience began the following year, with Cuivran people sabotaging railways and organizing sit inside. In response, the Imperial government deployed additional forces to the area.
In 1961, following a dispute between striking gold miners and Imperial soldiers, armed Cuivran rebels attacked an Imperial military outpost outside the city of Port-au-Prospérité, leaving three Imperial soldiers and five Cuivrans dead. That attack was swiftly followed by several others across the area within the following days triggering a province-wide insurgency.
