The Luepolan Uprising of 1979, commonly known as the March Uprising, was a period of widespread civil unrest and limited internal conflict that occurred in the State of Luepola. The conflict started with protests in the town of Utrna; mass arrests and the shooting of civilians caused further unrest to sweep the nation. The uprising saw the defection of some units of the Luepolan Home Guard to the protestors, clashing with other units in armed gunfights. The unrest ultimately led to the Sliet voting President Zdrávko Kasun out of office in an impromptu referendum backed by the military; his successor Mateus Branković began implementing the protestors' demands in earnest.
