Background

The Jenwitaneanf

On 16 August 1537, a large-scale protest known today as the Jenwitaneanf (Great Dissent) occured. In the Jenwitaneanf, the Taulliswudo Kiernokagh Svihtrichorvwin (Coalition for Collective Freedom and Prosperity), composed of labor unions, military units, minor corporations, local governments, and mercenary groups, organized a mass general strike to demand higher wages, safe working conditions, the right to organize unions, the right to travel freely, improved medical care, anti-monopoly legislation, food security, improved local autonomy, an end to corporate governance, an end to indentured servitude, the appointment of TKS First Representitive [PLACEHOLDER] as Director of Labor Management, and a deregulated arms market. The coalition threatened to secede and form the Arixiekiviawura Ulnausvihdi Duuliwheg (People's Federation of Free Republics) if their demands were not met. An estimated 40% of the armed forces and 70% of the population sided with the AUD. This, combined with many mercenary units also siding with the TKS and several units surrounded in AUD territory, meant the Sixth Council was at a disadvantage in the case of a civil war. On 28 August 1537, after negotiations, the Sixth Council agreed to all demands. An estimated 700 deaths or injuries occured during during the Jenwitaneanf from a combination of crime and minor skirmishes between TKS and Sixth Council forces. The TKS continues to exist in the modern day as a group representing most labor unions and some local governments to the Sixth Council. Its head, First Representative [PLACEHOLDER], continues to serve as Director of Labor Management.
