The Beatavic Civil War was an armed conflict in Beatavic that started on June 5th 1998 and ended on November 25th 2002. It was fought between the Beatavician Government, Beatavician Nationalists and Berganzi separatists. The conflict ended in Government victory.
The Nationalists became prominent in Beatavician politics during the Chezian War in 1992, known for discriminating Syrarantoans, Artaskans and would rarely engage in discriminating against Constantioans. This would continue until the end of the Chezian War in 1997 when the Beatavic Government had begun to arrest nationalists for crimes ranging from hate speech to 1st & 2nd degree murder. Berganzi nationalists would participate in riots in cities including Rouville and Sassagna. On June 5th 1998 ultranationalists would ambush a group of Beatavician soldiers, officially kickstarting the Beatavic Civil War. Approximately 3 hours later, Berganzi secessionists declared independence with the secessionists holding Sassagna.
Background
Nationalism in Beatavic dates back to 1820 when the country fought the Beatavic War of Independence with the country being lead by ultranationalists, however after the civil war the country was deradicalised and elections were held. Nationalism wouldn't become prominent in Beatavician Politics until 1951 after the Battle of Port Badmun, however after the end of the war in 1954, nationalism would once again decline and wouldn't become prominent in Beatavic politics until the Chezian war in 1992 and would remain prominent in Beatavic politics after the end of the Chezian war in 1995 with tensions being high between the Beatavic Government and Nationalists, throughout 1996, 1997 and 1998, foreigners in Beatavic, specifically Artaskans, Syrarantoans and Constantioans would face discrimination and some would be murdered. On June 5th 1998, 10 Nationalists would ambush 5 Beatavician soldiers, murdering 3 and capturing 2, with the two being killed in a disturbing video shared nationwide, starting the civil war.
