Sombra Negra
Not to be confused with the Militarist Front for National Liberation.
The Militarist Nationalist Front (Creeperian Spanish: Frente Nacionalista Militarista, abbreviated FRENAMI, also called the Sombra Negra) is a death squad which currently operates in Creeperopolis. Sombra Negra was founded during the Creeperian Civil War by Adolfo Rivera López in 1940. The death squad originally targeted members and civilian supporters of the National Coalition for Peace and Order as well as Deltinian civilians. The death squad's most infamous action was the Denshire Massacre where 25,000 civilians, mostly Deltinians, were slaughtered. Following the civil war, the death squad moved on to target Senvarian and Senvekian civilians and supporters of the Senvarian Liberation Front. Sombra Negra began to target members of Mara Salvatrucha in 1951, the year the gang was formed, and gang member remain the death squad's primary prey. With the erruption of the Deltinian Insurgency, the Sombra Negra joined forces with ten other death squads to from the Creeperian Council for Order and Stability (CCOE), who then changed its name to the Anti-Deltinian Armed Forces of Liberation - War of Elimination (FALANGE), to target and kill Deltinian civilians and supporters of the self-proclaimed Emirate of Deltino.
History
Civil War
The Creeperian Civil War erupted on January 2, 1933, following a skirmish in San Salvador del Norte between forces loyal to Romero I and Miguel VII. Following the skirmish, the Catholic Imperial Restoration Council (Romerists, Imperial Council) and the National Council for Peace and Order (Miguelists, National Council) were formed.
A war began in El Salvador, but it soon ended in 1935 following the fall of Ciudad de Granada. The National Council then began the Papal War later in 1935 and the Senvarian Liberation Front declared independence in 1934. From 1936, a stalemate effectively consumed the conflict with neither side gainging much territory.
Formation
Adolfo Rivera López was a poor Creeperian farmer living in the countryside of Santa Ana. In 1940, the Senvarian Liberation Front raided his farm and killed his mother and father while him and his younger brother, Enrique Rivera López, were buying supplies for the farm in the city of Santa Ana. He was filled with anger at hearing the news and he wished to see the deaths of all Senvar-Senvekians in revenge for his parents' deaths. He and his brother established the Militarist Nationalist Front, and the sole goal of the group was to kill as many Senvar-Senvekians as possible. Rivera López also targeted communists and Deltinians.
A similar group, the Creeperian Peoples' Catholic Front (FCPC, Cristeros), also formed in similar conditions, however the Cristeros were formed to fight communism, establish National Catholicism, and protect Creeperian farmers. The Militarist Nationalist Front on the other hand was established for the sole purpose of genocide and ethnocide.
The Militarist Nationalist Front quickly gained members amassing around 1,000 members by 1941. The group began to capture and kill Senvar-Senvekian civilians in Santa Ana and Senvar. These killings brought the death squad to the immediate attention to the Senvarian Liberation Front who saw the Militarist Nationalist Front as a direct threat to Senvar-Senvekian sovereignty.
The Militarist Nationalist Front, abbreviated as FRENAMI, became known as the "Sombra Negra" ("Black Shadow") in the mid-1940s due to their black banner and their guerrilla tactics of hiding in the jungle in all black uniforms, waiting to attack unsuspecting victims.
