The Citizenry Uprising, (Hétumogerian: Állampolgári Felkelés) known also as the Hétumoger Civil War or the Blue Revolution was a civil war that lasted two years and six months. The war was fought between the pro-Nemesség Second Noble Republic and the Blue Nationalist Party and several radical elements within the country after the transition into the Second Noble Republic from the Third Kingdom. The Citizenry Uprising was primarily focused in the eastern regions of Hétumoger. The Blue Nationalist Party and their paramilitary radical organizations were composed of mainly of lower-class Polgárság. The conflict was started by the Kisigmánd Emergency after the Blue Nationalist Party was deemed an illegal organization by the Országgyűlés and kicked members out of the Népkormány. Paired with the ongoing philosophical-political movement of the Néma Forradalom, Hétumoger was plunged into conflict.
The Néma Forradalom had been going on since 1901 since the Third Kingdom, where Hétumogerian society had experienced a growth in population and a rise in urbanization under Zgismond Koháry II. The Rendszer-Helyreállítás that was meant to reform the public sector became a disaster due to the mismanagement by Zgismond and his government, creating instability with the Kingdom and its rule by both the Polgárság and the Nemesség. The improving social conditions that were stopped by the reforms caused the Néma Forradalom to begin as a mainly Polgárság movement. Several different political groups and ideological groups came together, leading to a struggle for the spotlight on the political stage which was soon swept by a new movement coming from Nagymező called Blue Nationalism. Originally thought of by the Blue Vanguards, the movement saw extreme popularity in its radicalism by the Polgárság. Eventually, Zgismond would resign and call for a reformation in government, seeing the failure of the monarchy. The Second Noble Republic was formed, but was embroiled in political conflict by then when the Népkormány was reconvened and the anti-Nemesség party, the Blue Nationalist Party, became the most popular party during the 1909 Népkormány election.
After the 1909 election and the establishment of a Blue Nationalist majority in the Népkormány, the Blue Vanguards moved the majority of their base of operations from Nagymező to Komárom in Kisigmánd. Over the course of 15 years, the Blue Nationalist party only grew in size and went from a majority to an overwhelming majority party. After the passing of Resolution 65-094 in the Népkormány, the Országgyűlés opted to move for an executive action and illegalize the Blue Nationalist Party.

The beginning of the Citizenry Uprising is traced back to the Coronation of Zgismond II, who was an Először Nemesség of Koháry. Zgismond was crowned in 1875 in a referendum by the Országgyűlés, leading to the dissolvement of the government of the First Noble Republic of Hétumoger and the establishment of the Third Kingdom of Hétumoger. The referendum came as a political self-destruct, dissolving the Népkormány and removing justiciars from the High Citizens Court to be replaced with those appointed by Zgismond himself. Zgismond II began his reign with a Hétumoger on the brink of modernizing the eastern administrative districts and improving the economy, but with an unpopular view from the Polgárság. Zgismond II and his cabinet at the time were aligned as conservatives, being pro-Nemesség, Zgismond announced his intent to begin the Rendszer-Helyreállítás. The Rendszer-Helyreállítás was a reset on the initially Noble Republic government to replace them with pro-monarchist members, which mainly targeted public-sector workers that operated directly with the government. The Noble Department of Agriculture, Noble Department of Transportation, and the Noble Department of Development and Conservation were the most affected by the rollout of the Rendszer-Helyreállítás, with listed departments losing over 50% of their total workforce due to cutbacks on funding by Zgismond.
The rollout of the Rendszer-Helyreállítás proved to be disasterous for the modernization of the eastern districts and also caused problems with the local governments of urban centers. The failure to fund the Department of Agriculture and restore its staffing numbers to sufficient capacity caused the development of the eastern districts to suffer as their economies were focused on the production and upkeep of agriculture. Government-sponsered programs attempted to ease the damage caused by the Rendszer-Helyreállítás by establishing the Agricultural Development Administration, however most of these government-sponsered programs with a focus on agricultural were failures. The ADA became a failure as it could not meet its quota on agricultural development prospects. Alongside the modernization efforts ruined in eastern districts, the Department of Development recieved a major funding decrease which set back land development prospects that were initially approved by the First Noble Republic in western urban areas to improve overall living conditions. The Department of Development and Conservation was responsible for the management of federal land that belonged as resource areas or natural reserves according to Resolution 33-055. The cutting of funding also meant that many different workers and administrators were never recalled by their respective adminstration.

Suffering major losses, Dávid Pataki and the Noble Army were forced to rout from Kisigmánd in late April of 1927. The overall initial strength of the Blue Nationalists and their ability to counter the offensive at Komárom allowed the Blue Nationalists to begin forming an organized structure of their army with the National Militia. From here, they hired Vilmos Mátyás to help lead the National Militia as the Marshal of the Militia. After the structuring of the National Militia with the help of Vilmos, plans were set out to begin an offensive in Oroszlány by the National Militia with help from local partisans and expected farmers and agrarians to come help the war effort in Oroszlány. The establishment of a Blue Nationalist government was also underway in Kisigmánd. István, Izidóra and Vilmos focused their efforts on planning the war effort while Magdolna and Edvárd focused on restructing the government.
