The Civil Transition War (July 23rd, 2018 - September 13th, 2019) was a war that was fought in the former Republic Of Makko Oko. As a result of a combination of the high level of poverty striking the nation at the time, the constant military presence due to martial law that was declared throughout the nation only a week before the war started, and the spread of Christian nationalism propaganda by the CNF, war broke out on July 23rd, 2018, with everybody fighting the soldiers within each and every city. Some, including military veterans, stayed loyal to the Republic Of Makko Oko, while the majority of everybody else, fought to "purge the republic and convert it to send everybody to heaven", and the CNF officially changed from a political party to a terrorist organization and subsequently got banned by the President.
Background
Before the start of the Civil Transition War, life was not well in the nation. Poverty was increasing in the triple digits on a daily basis, inflation was skyrocketing to levels never before seen and the government lacked funds and stability to actively help people through services like welfare and maintenance. In these times, the nation was democratic, free and open, however all religions were prohibited from public exercise.
It all started in mid-2018 when Army General Harold Copenhagen was appointed as the Vice Commander Of The Makko Okoan Armed Forces by former President Harold Zenonis. The announcement of this instatement was blasted everywhere as if it was propaganda. No government was perfect, but in the democratic Makko Oko, it was even worse so. The moment Harold Copenhagen was instated as Vice Commander, he convinced the former President Harold Zenonis to take money out of the people's welfare budget and put it into the military's salary, boosting it by 120%. This angered everybody, and only made the poor even poorer. People who openly prayed were arrested and other people who wantd a place of worship had to run them underground, and felt shame in doing so. These were some of the leading reasons for the Eleshull Riot Of 2018, which is merely forgotten by the populace in present times.
The Eleshull Riot Of 2018 occurred because of the cut welfare budget, the lack of access to public services, the rising inflation, among other issues including some of them being law enforcement and law related. Gambling was banned, the industry was not state-assisted in the slightest and law enforcement also lacked in numbers leading to the highest crime rates. The people, over 260,000, were originally protesting until a police officer told them to leave, but without any backup or SWAT teams, was just stabbed by an unknown individual, which led to some people being scared of a murder conviction and wondering who did it, which then turned into a riot.
A riot by infighting of the protestors, which then spilled off into the city and with no SWAT teams actively being employed within the nation due to high unemployment rates, the military had to be called in, and a whopping 35-45 people died in the riot. It took until the next day after the riot had started for it to be suppressed, and then the military was guarding that city, along with many others in the nation, until further notice.
The Beginning
After the Eleshull Riot Of 2018 was suppressed, and after a week of constant military presence, essentially being martial law without martial law being officially declared, in addition to the military assisting law enforcement by becoming the police, the people had decided they had sat through enough, especially after reading of the joys of foreign nations and not being able to afford plane tickets, only the rich fleeing in droves, not even criminals could attain enough to do so. People from all walks of life, from all cities, of all religions both hidden and ousted, started to fight the soldiers in their hometowns, and this caused an official declaration of martial law and a state of emergency, which had never previously been used.
The war had not officially started until a shot was fired towards the capital in the old capital city of Joria, killing the wife of the President, Gloria Zenonis. This led to an official declaration of a civil war by the former and now-widowed President.
Causes Of The War
The war was mainly caused due to an extreme cost of living and purchasing power crisis, with the people being further angered over the deployment of martial law across the nation. Corruption in the government is also said to be a factor.
The End
The war officially ended on September 13th, 2019 at the former capital of the Republic in Joria, Makko Oko. That day was the Battle of Joria, a turning point in the conflict between the Christian National Front (CNF) and the Republic of Makko Oko. Leading a daring assault against entrenched Republic forces defending key government buildings, Lieutenant-General Conall rallied his troops and spearheaded the advance despite heavy enemy fire.
During the intense urban combat, he was struck by shrapnel in his left arm but refused evacuation. Ignoring his wounds, Conall personally led a small team to outflank a Republic strongpoint that had pinned down the CNF's main force. Under a hail of bullets, he and his men fought their way through several buildings, eventually reaching a position overlooking the enemy emplacement. Despite his injury and the extreme danger, Solis coordinated a precise artillery strike on the Republic position while simultaneously directing his team's suppressing fire. This action broke the deadlock and allowed CNF forces to overrun the last major Republic defenses in the city.
Conall's heroic actions and tactical acumen were instrumental in securing victory at Joria. The fall of the former capital dealt a severe blow to Republic morale and gave the CNF control over critical government infrastructure. This battle marked a decisive shift in the war's momentum, ultimately contributing to the CNF's final triumph and the establishment of the new regime. For his extraordinary valor and decisive leadership in the face of grave danger, Lieutenant General Conall Solis was awarded the Medal of Honor. His actions at the Battle of Joria exemplified the highest traditions of military service and played a crucial role in shaping the future of Makko Oko.
Aftermath
After the war, the old government in the Republic Of Makko Oko, including the members of Parliament, went into exile, with any and all references to the Republic removed from everything. Additionally, the Empire Of Makko Oko was established, along with a dictatorship. The economy did significantly better than before the war and continues to do so today.
