The 2011 Fendiralian coup d'état was a bloodless military coup in Fendiralia which resulted in the overthrow of the Fendiralian Empire and establishment of the Republic of Fendiralia. After a protracted period of political unrest, including a general strike in January 2011 and widespread anticipation of democratisation or civil conflict, a group of senior military officers seized power in a coup on 13 March 2011, deposing the government of Bozidar Modovic and forcing Emperor Radim to abdicate. Following the coup, the military formed the Extraordinary Committee for Order and Progress, a military junta which would rule Fendiralia until the 2013 Fendiralian Presidential Election and the establishment of the Berdjadz Regime.
Background
Emperor Radim of Fendiralia acceded to the throne on 18 October 1972. A partly-elected legislature, the Senate, was established in 1947, and was made wholly but indirectly elected under the reform programme of Prince Jozef in 1974. Despite this, formal political organisations remained banned, as well as direct criticism of the imperial family, and politics remained strongly influenced by the traditional nobility, though this control would gradually diminish with the incorporation of new economic elites. During the second half of the 20th century, economic growth resulted in rapid urbanisation, particularly in the capital city of Ottow, with small-scale labour activism emerging to combat poor working conditions and violations of poorly-enforced legal protections. Activism also increasingly emerged in the University of Ottow, which significantly expanded from the 1950s to educate an increasingly large number of elites unwilling or unable to attend universities abroad.
Following a damaging economic recession and series of political scandals in the 1980s, pro-democracy student activism in the University of Ottow intensified, created the nucleus of the Democratic League. Initially a peaceful activist movement campaigning for a more democratic government accountable to the Senate, it grew in an increasingly militant direction after the 1990 University of Ottow occupation, during which police fired on and killed eight activiss, and arrested dozens of others.
