The Ocralian civil war of 1923-1924 was a civil conflict fought in Acràlia after the coup d'Etat of field marshall Marziale Marziale in the 10th of February 1923. The civil war was fought between five main factions : the Campanists of Zachària Ferrandi, the Junta (made of the Marzialists of Marziale Marziale and Stefano di Foliacci's Federal Army), the Christian coalition (made of Leopoldo Venturini's Ocralian Patriarchate and Antonio di Cristiani's Sons of Campana), the Liberal coalition (made of Vittori Fazi's Free Armies of Ocraly, Zanovzi Zingaretti's Zingarettists, Virgilio Grazzani's Civil Guard and Rosa Iozzi's Constitutionalist Army) and the Left coalition (made of Céleste of Asmavie's Her Majesty's Red Guard, Osvaldo Organia's Organists and Wladimiro Lenarduzzi's Lenarduzzists). It ended with the invasion of Ocraly in 1924 by the sixth faction, the Confederate States of Florentia, and the subsequent establishment of the second Kingdom of Ocraly as a Florentian autonomous subject in october 1924.
The 25th of February, 1922, at the age of 76 and after 44 years of rule, His Excellency, Generalissimo-Admiralissimo Basiliu di Campana, Perpetual Dictator of Ocraly for Life and after Death, died from a heart attack. His Secretary of State Zachària Ferrandi quickly seized control and, lacking the charisma of Campana, decided to honor Campana's wish to eternally remain Ocraly's head of state after his death. His decision to remain loyal to Ocralianist ideology was extremly unpopular with some parts of the Ocralian armed forces which favoured a more pragmatic dictatorship, away from Campana's ideological fanaticism. Thus, field marshal Marziale Marziale committed a coup d'etat which failed in the capital of Fangosa, sparking the Ocralian civil war.
