Ashgate, also referred to as the Ashgate Scandal, was a major political scandal in Makko Oko regarding the exposure of government involvement in an outbreak of radiation poisonings that had plagued the nation. The scandal led to the nation's greatest attempt at overthrowing the regime of Emperor Conall Solis, and the Empire's first impeachment hearing on Minister of Health Danika Hicks. It stemmed from the attempted cover-up and silencing of the true origin and nature of the radiation, with the government refusing to answer questions posed by the health ministry, which had primary authority in investigating the outbreak.
