History

2011 attack

The Aquitaynian embassy in Paradise City was the site of a violent confrontation between local militia, rioting civilians, Aquitaynian security personnel, and Blackhelm Confederacy forces on January 23, 2011, shortly after the end of the Blackhelm Confederate Revolution.

The conflict originated in the decision by the Aquitaynian ambassador and security forces to provide shelter to an Islamic family fleeing an attack by a Paradisian mob. The refusal to hand the family over to local militiamen gradually escalated until gunfire was exchanged by both sides. After a prolonged firefight, members of the militia and the mob penetrated the courtyard of the embassy and entered into the embassy structure, continuing to engage Aquitaynian security forces. Within minutes of the breach of the main entry, Blackhelm Confederate forces arrived and dispersed the crowd.

The event led to a widespread crackdown and disarmament of pro-government militias throughout the Blackhelm Confederacy, and drew widespread international condemnation.
