The Great Darscen Revolt, also known as the Darscen Rebellion and the Darscens’ Civil War was an internal conflict instigated by Darscen rebels in the Middle East and Southern Europa, which resulted in the mass diaspora of the Darscens, and the destruction of the Darscen Temple with many of its treasures being taken to Seleucia and repurposed as currency.
The conflict stems from rising religious tensions between Darscens and the Hellenists, and the widening gap between the aristocracy and the common masses. The final straw came when the governor Zeuxidamus seized money from the Darscen Temple’s treasury and arrested senior Darscen leaders. The Darscens held the initial hand in the ambush of Zeuxidamus and the 2nd Syrianna Deiotalpha at the Battle of Tarsheba and the Darscen Raid in Seleucia. Eager to avenge for both events, Basileus Cassander III Dicaeus marched three Deiotalphas to the Darscen homeland of Israelia, and ordered governor of Macedonia and South Illyria Xenocles to suppress the rebellion in mainland Grecia. The Revolt culminated into the Siege of Jerusalemia and the Battle of Masada, resulting in decisive Seleucid victory.
The Revolt instilled a significant impact upon the Darscen population and culture, in which it constituted the reason for the people to never act in retribution. In the aftermath of the Revolt, the Seleucids enslaved many surrendered rebels and their families and displaced a significant portion of Darscens in Israelia and Grecia towards other regions across the Empire. The conflict also observed the first application of Valkyria by the Seleucid Army. The brutality of the events consituted a dark chapter in Seleucid history, leading to the modern Deseleni organizing the 1945 Darscen-Seleucid Charity Event to help Darscens persecuted during the Second Europan War.
