The '''New Year's Revolt''', also known as the '''Insurrection of 2016''', was nearly 3 months of strikes, protests and demonstrations, and general unrest in [[Sydalon]], lasting from 4 January to 19 January 2016. The insurrection began innocuously as a minor protest in [[Ostracine (city)|Ostracine]] against the extravagant royal spending brought on by [[Melisende III of Sydalon|Queen Melisende III]]'s marriage to [[Michael of Dakmoor|Prince Michael of Dakmoor]]. By New Year's Day, the demonstrations grew to encompass groups calling for political reforms that ranged from the re-creation of an elected lower house of [[Parliament of Sydalon|Parliament]] to the abolition of the [[Monarchy of Sydalon|Monarchy]].
 
A faction of the protestors also called for Queen Melisende to cease interfering in the trial of [[Adeodatus du Caeseti]], and later became violent when protestors attacked a police convoy transporting Caeseti from the [[Judiciary of Sydalon#Royal District Courts|Ostracine Royal District Court]] and Fuertzuarru<!--Blue Fort-->. The insurrection was the largest and most widespread of its kind in Sydalon since the signing of the [[Yarden Accords]] in 1973.
 
A royal inquiry into the causes and events of the revolt prompted more than 7,000 arrests.
==Background==
Origins of the New Year's Revolt have been traced to the October 2012 royal proclamation by then [[Desiderius I of Sydalon|King Desiderius I]] on his plans to create an elected [[wikipedia:lower house|lower house]] of [[Parliament of Sydalon|Parliament]]. A month later, the King announced during a public address his diagnosis with pancreatic cancer, and ultimately his death on 22 May 2013 stalled any plans to establish an elected lower house of Parliament when his daughter and successor, the 19-year old [[Melisende III of Sydalon|Queen Melisende III]], later announced that Desiderius' death and subsequent transition would delay the creation of an elected legislature.
 
Queen Melisende suffered from a lack of popular support in the early years of her reign, and her delay of an elected legislature were eventually met with protests by October. These small protests dissipated by November, but local and domain politicians continued to press for national elections and greater popular involvement in the Royal Domain.
 
By 2015, the Queen's rising favorability began to dip with the announcement of her engagement to [[Michael of Dakmoor|Prince Michael of Dakmoor]]. The engagement was seen as unfavorable to the nobility and, most of all, the Church, especially as rumors of a pregnancy began to circulate at court. Queen Melisende's wedding to Michael of Dakmoor once again pushed back any plans of an elected lower chamber of Parliament, and saw record state and royal spending on security and planning the wedding. The Queen was noticeably pregnant at her June 2015 wedding, which saw some sharp rebukes from more conservative, prominent nobles. However, the extravagant spending drew the ire of the Sydalene populace and various demonstrations throughout the royal domain and even some of the non-royal domains.
 
Overall a contentious issue in Sydalon, and even among the various early demonstrators, the deposition, arrest, and trial of [[Adeodatus de Caeseti]] saw repeated royal interference in the justice system. Interference included reinstatement of 2 charges previously dismissed by the Ostracine District Court, and disqualifying the judge from continuing with the case. While this sort of interference is not constitutionally prohibited, many grew outraged at the repeated involvement during Caeseti's pre-trial proceedings. However, a sect of protestors gathered in support of Caeseti and joined demonstrations, often referring to the allegations and convictions as "fake" and a "witch-hunt".
 
Another contributing factor was social media. A number of foreign and local social media websites attacked the Queen for her broken promises, lack of attention to government, judicial interference, and extravagant spending on personal affairs. Following an investigation, which some have called biased, accused the [[IDR]] or other foreign agents of influencing the demonstrations via social media. Taken together, these events are widely seen to be the leading causes of the gatherings that took place on 26 December 2015 and the events that followed.
==Early events==
===Early demonstrations and protests===
Protests and demonstrations had become an almost regular fixture in Ostracine and [[Sydalon (city)|Sydalon]] after Queen Melisende's [[Wedding of Melisende III and Michael of Dakmoor|June 2015 wedding]]. However at these early protests, the Queen was absent from the country for more than a month for the royal couple's honeymoon in [location]. Demonstrators began to organize more online and held a number of flash protests after authorities withheld granting legal protest approval. These flash protests proved troublesome for the local authorities, who for the next month were unable to infiltrate the websites protestors used to gather. This inability to infiltrate led local police to a delayed response time for other more traditional policing matters, as they responded to protests in an effort to prevent their spread in Ostracine.
 
By mid-August, the Queen and Prince Consort returned to [[Sydalon (city)|Sydalon]], where they were met with protests that prevented their return to [[Monarchy of Sydalon#Residences|Castra Rubea]] for at least 2 hours after their arrival. Police were later able to clear the travel route and return the Queen to Castra Rubea. The next day, local police, supported by a minor armed detachment of the [[Order of Saint Joseph]], used water cannons to clear peaceful protestors that were gathered outside of [[Liga 1 (Sydalon)|Civitas Christi]]'s stadium.
 
For the next 3 months, flash protests went through a phase of disappearance and reappearance. Two events are widely attributed to the eventual growth of protests. First, the arrest of [[Adeodatus de Caeseti]] was seen as a widely divisive issue among the populace. Second, the removal of [[Adi Philosir]] from his position on the [[Ostracine (city)|Ostracine City Council]] for speaking out against the disregard of due process and royal interference in Caeseti's case. These two events resulted in a growth of the protests leading up to January 2016, creating a diverse group of protestors, ranging from those supporting Caeseti who more conservative leaning and decried the allegations facing him as "fake news", and more youthful, left-wing leaning reformists drawn to Philosir's cause.
 
==Turning points==
===Storming parliament===
[[file:George Floyd police brutality protests - Portland Oregon - July 22 - tedder - 05.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Protestors gather outside of Parliament on 4 January, the day following the storming of parliament.]]
Prior to New Year's 2016, legal demonstrations were held in Ostracine outside of [[Parliament of Sydalon|Palis Autrecôté]]. Because Parliament was on winter recess, security was lighter than normal. The demonstrations violated the municipal curfew imposed on legal demonstrations, leading to an unruly situation with the demonstrators and early clashes with police. Local police fired tear gas at protestors, and the demonstration was labeled a riot by the municipal government. On 3 January 2016, the [[Royal Guard (Sydalon)|Royal Guard]] responded to a bomb threat at – located within a mile of [[Monarchy of Sydalon#Residences|Palis de Aultavilla]].
 
Due to the limited police presence at Parliament and other authorities responding to the bomb threat, demonstrators began to force their way towards the entrance of Parliament. Authorities remaining at Palis Autrecôté began firing tear gas at the protestors who, by 12:01 PM, had managed to reach the building's front steps. However, at 12:26, when demonstrators breached the front doors, they were met with little resistance from authorities who had all but abandoned the building. Demonstrators remained inside of Palis Autrecôté for nearly 5 hours as riot police assembled nearby. While mustering, police were joined by the [[Royal Sydalene Army|26th Royal Army Company]]. At 5:17 PM, authorities began to clear the building, using smoke grenades and, what observers referred to as, "brutal" tactics. The first death was reported at 7:37 PM, where a demonstrator was killed by an Ostracine police officer. A total of 10 deaths resulted from the storming of Parliament, all demonstrators.
===Subsequent demonstrations===
[[file:Protestes a Girona 20191016 11.jpg|200px|thumb|left|Police barricade on fire in Ostracine's entertainment district.]]
The storming of parliament and the 10 deaths that followed quickly served as a rallying cry against the government. Demonstrations continued to swell in Ostracine and [[Sydalon (city)|Sydalon]], and even began to spread to other major cities, most notably [[Philippopolis (city)|Philippopolis]], [[Aihal]], and [[Zabbar]]. Royal authorities quickly called on the demonstrations and protests as "riots". Government comments caused to inflame the protestors, and prompted police to continue their use of heavy-handed tactics to push back on the protests, with a liberal tear gas, riot controlling tactics, and non-lethal ammunition.
 
Protestors reacted harshly to the violent police actions to end the demonstrations and protests pushing back on police and the army with any weapons at their disposal, including rocks, bricks, stolen batons, shields. In turn, police responded with water canons and tear gas. Protestors attempted to storm Parliament a second time, but instead were turned back by a major police presence, though not without major clashes and numerous injuries. At least 200 arrests were made on 5 January.
 
The first calls for a general strike were made on 5 January, by former Ostracine city-councilor [[Adi Philosir]], who was removed from office in 2013 for violation of lese majeste laws. An arrest warrant was issued against Philosir and other insurrectionist leaders. Philosir was arrested on 7 January at approximately 4:00 am, along with his wife – though she was later released by authorities and placed under house arrest with their children.
===Alimas River crossing attack===
On the morning of 8 January 2015, [[Adi Philosir]] was set to be arraigned at the [[Judiciary of Sydalon#Royal District Courts|Ostracine Royal District Court]] for multiple charges of conspiracy, destruction of property, incitement, insurrection, and treason. By 10:30 am, he appeared at the District Court for his arraignment and pleaded not guilty. He was set for return to Fuertzuarru, a prominent prison for  political prisoners located near Lampron, at 2:20 PM. Unbeknownst to the public, [[Adeodatus de Caeseti]] also appeared for a hearing at the District Court and was in the same transport moving Philosir. The police convoy overseeing Philosir's and Caeseti's transportation was ambushed while crossing the Alimas River. At least 20 armed insurrectionists attacked the convoy. An exchange of gunfire was first reported moments after the attack, and numerous clips were posted to social media before being removed. The attack resulted in the deaths of 8 deaths, 5 of which were police officers. Philosir, Caeseti, and 3 other prisoners being transported.
 
The convoy attack resulted in further escalation from royal authorities, and by 3:29 PM, Queen Melisende declared a state of emergency in Ostracine and placed the armed forces on high alert. Violence between protestors and police again ensued come nightfall, despite Philosir's call for peaceful protests following his release.
===Formation of the Citizens Movement===
Demonstrators first formed a coherent leadership on 11 January, with the Proclamation for a Citizens Movement. The group, henceforth known simply as the Citizens Movement, was primarily led by Philosir and Caeseti, with an undefined single leader. The proclamation issued a series of demands to the government. Such demands included the creation of an elected house of Parliament, monarchy reforms, restriction of royal power in favor of an elected body, the end of the Monarch's immunity and removal of lese majeste laws, constitutional amendments to secure judicial independence, resignation and arrest of those responsible for the deaths of protestors, etc.


The inclusion of Caeseti drew instant criticisms from some of the younger, more left-leaning demonstrators, and the divisions resulted in both Philosir and Caeseti jostling for the spotlight in what publicly appeared to be a fragile alliance. The leadership clash came to a head when Philosir and Caeseti contradicted one another on the issue of a general strike. Next, Caeseti called for the formation of militias to combat the mustering various domain guard forces and Royal Army groups being deployed in various cities. This call to arms by Caeseti was contradicted by Philosir who continued to call for peaceful protests and calls for a general strike. Despite these contradictions, the two continued to appear together in videos shared through various online mediums before being taken down by the government.  
Bordered by [[Sydalon]], it lays just east of the boundary of the [[Ajax|Salacian Ocean]] and the [[Ajax|Periclean Sea]]. It is a considered an integral part of [[Latium]], and is officially within the diocese [[Scipia Periclea]], and a group of holdings informally referred to as ''[[Arces imperialis]]'', or Imperial strongholds, which includes [[Sasora]], [[Scheria]], [[Lampeda]], and [[Silura]]. Control over Terresinia is disputed with Sydalon and despite recent improvements in Latin-Sydalene relations, the territorial status of the city remains contentious.


Initially, the Citizens Movement did not call for an abolition of the monarchy. However, an online post attributed to Philosir implied as much and called for the arrest of the Queen and her ministers.
The city's current status as a settlement with full city rights dates to 9 July 1951. The city is primarily governed by an Imperial-appointed Urban Prefect, and the unicameral [[Assembly of Terrasina]]. [[Jacaerus Corvus]] has served as Urban Prefect since 19 June 2022. Terrasina serves as a key sea port and is host to <!--castra stativa-navalia-->CSN Veteropolis.

===Assassination of XXXX===
An Aradian settlement at or near the site of modern day Terrasina was first established around the 9th century BC. The name of the city derives from the Latin terra sinus,  meaning roughly "land at the gulf," or terra sinorum, meaning "land of the bays", due to its location near the [bay near Ostracine]. The city is also informally referred to as Veteropolis, (lit. "Old City").

Terrasina (Sydalene: Terrasini), informally referred to as Veteropolis (lit. Old city) is a city of Latium located on the North Scipian coast.

Bordered by Sydalon, it lays just east of the boundary of the Salacian Ocean and the Periclean Sea. It is a considered an integral part of Latium, and is officially within the diocese Scipia Periclea, and a group of holdings informally referred to as Arces imperialis, or Imperial strongholds, which includes Sasora, Scheria, Lampeda, and Silura. Control over Terresinia is disputed with Sydalon and despite recent improvements in Latin-Sydalene relations, the territorial status of the city remains contentious.

The city's current status as a settlement with full city rights dates to 9 July 1951. The city is primarily governed by an Imperial-appointed Urban Prefect, and the unicameral Assembly of Terrasina. Jacaerus Corvus has served as Urban Prefect since 19 June 2022. Terrasina serves as a key sea port and is host to CSN Veteropolis.

Names

An Aradian settlement at or near the site of modern day Terrasina was first established around the 9th century BC. The name of the city derives from the Latin terra sinus, meaning roughly "land at the gulf," or terra sinorum, meaning "land of the bays", due to its location near the [bay near Ostracine]. The city is also informally referred to as Veteropolis, (lit. "Old City").
