The National Revolution (Chandan: 𑐄𑐣𑐾𑐲 𑐡‎𑐾‎𑐰𑐬𑐶𑐩, Undes Devrim), also known as the PLA Civil War internationally, was a period of multi-sided conflict in the West Shalegho Commandery in 1949 to 1950 with intermittent conflict until 1951. Largely conducted between various factions of the People's Liberation Army of Chanda, it did not involve the civilian population except when pro-Republican militias joined the war. As a result, it is usually described by academics as a "low-level war" with relatively few casualties on all sides. It began when Republican PLA forces arrested the leadership of the Satrian PLA and Pardal PLA factions in an attempt to prevent an escalation of violence between the two. Instead it only sparked a conflict that led to open warfare against each other and the Republican PLA. The conflict is usually considered to have ended with the Chandan Brotherhood Agreement between the remnants of dissent PLA forces and the Republicans. The National Revolution is generally considered to have started the Chandan Republican Revolution, the period of nation-building and state-building by the Five Leaders of Chanda which would lead to the Declaration of the Birlikist Republic of Chanda in 1951.
