The Aveirs Genocide (also sometimes known as the Aveirs Holocaust) was the systematic mass murder and expulsion of 800,000-1 million ethnic Wacee people carried out in Avergnon and adjoining regions by the forces of the Dominion of the Sanguine Church between 1950 and 1952. The starting date is conventionally held to be July 2nd, 1950, the day that D.S.C. authorities rounded up, arrested, and deported from Aveirs 5,235 to 5,270 Wacee intellectuals and community leaders, the majority of whom were eventually murdered.
The genocide was carried out during the World War and implemented in two phases—the wholesale killing of the able-bodied male population through massacre and subjection of army conscripts to forced labor, followed by the deportation of women, children, the elderly, and the infirm on death marches leading to the Sanguine Plateau. Driven forward by military escorts, the deportees were deprived of food and water and subjected to periodic robbery, rape, and massacre. Most Wacee diaspora communities around the world came into being as a direct result of the genocide.
The D.S.C. denies that the word genocide is an accurate term for these crimes, but in recent years has been faced with increasing calls to recognize them as such. As of 2019, governments and parliaments of 32 countries in the Coalition of Crown Albatross, including Zamastan, Drambenburg, Vulkaria, and Gladysynthia, have recognized the events as a genocide.
