The Reformation (Barro-Liguersien: La Reformaçon; Gaullican: La Réformation), formally known as the Societal Reconstruction Campaign (Barro-Liguersien: La campana reconstruccion de la societat; Gaullican: La campagne reconstruction sociétal) is a societal and ideological rectification campaign initiated by the Champanois Socialist Workers' Party in 2022. The main goal of the campaign is to correct apparent ideological and societal drift as a result of the Champanois Thaw by purging liberal and capitalist elements in Champanian society, and to re-impose Equalist-Tretyakism as the dominant ideology in Champania.

In punitive terms, the campaign has involved a crackdown on an enormous amount of perceived societal ills, including but not limited to drug abuse, corruption, abortion, and other "unsavory lifestyles choices." The Reformation has also marked by a return of totalitarian practices, including the reimplementation of the police state and introduction of mass surveillance, and the rise of a cult of personality centered on Socialist Workers' Party General Secretary Merçe Cruèselles. To replace these, the PSOC has utilized ideological fervor, nationalism, and enforced societal norms through numerous mass campaigns, the methodology of which range from holding of mass rallies and denunciation rallies, to the promotion of self-criticism.

The Reformation was initiated at the 21st National Congress of the Champanois Socialist Workers' Party, where Cruèselles delivered her opening day speech, later referred to as the April Declaration, crticizing numerous international socialist institutionsm, but also denouncing previous Champanois General Secretaries like Jeremeis Dior. Her speech laid the groundwork for the Reformation through 13 key points, the majority of which called for renewed focus on ideological education and further party control over the state. The weeks following saw Cruèselles make further incendiary comments and eventually charged that "liberal-functionalism" had infiltrated the Champanois government and society-at-large. Taking the initiative, two of Cruèselles allies, General Secretary of the Orangais Socialist Workers' Party Frèdèric Blanchon and Brigancon Red Guards Secretary Josèp Peiruc accused Brigançon Mayor Esteve Abrielhe and the Brigançon city council of corruption and "anti-revolutionary activities." Abrielhe, a key member of the Reformist faction of the Socialist Workers' Party, was subsequently expelled from the PSOC and later arrested and eventually executed for treason. The other members of the city council were subjected to denunciation rallies and hard labor.

Foreign political analysts have described the Reformation as a purge of both the PSOC and of Champanois society as a whole. As of August 2022, over 5,000 people have been executed or harassed into suicide, while an estimated 100,000 people have been persecuted under the pretense of "combating liberal-functionalism." The Reformation has also seen Champania further distance itself from the Association for International Socialism and its ostensible allies in the Mutual Assistance Organisation, and while Champania has yet to attack Kirenia directly, has done veiled attacks towards its ally, East Miersa.
