Second Amarillian Civil War

The Second Amarillian Civil War, also known as the Amarillian Revolution, was fought from the 3rd of April 2023 to the 9th of April 2023. It's divided

into two phases, the initial Revolutionary period and the ensuing Interregnum period. It resulted in the disestablishment of the Amarillian Empire, the abolition of the Amarillian monarchy in the Ragdon peninsula and Onumozaki, and the restoration of republican government in Amarillo. The revolutionary Liberal Republican faction prevailed in the battlefield and established the Second Republic of Amarillo. Following the conflict, Amarillo lost Mikanie and Western Pizczeck and was annexed by Zie Western Drakaes.

The war began after the partial failure of a counter-coup against Empress Connie I's self-coup by a revolutionary group of Amarillian militants and political opposition groups. The revolutionaries were a coalition of anti-Connie groups, including Pan-Drakaenists, Liberal Royalists, and Republicans. The Empress was supported by the loyalist remnants of the Imperial Army and volunteers from Pasifa.

The revolution was supported by the cities of Alefpamohadi, Arak-Kapharat and Mirai. However, revolutionaries in Puerto Amarillo did not gain control and the city remained subject to the Empress. Meanwhile, the cities of Romantello, Verdesburg and Porphyropolis declared neutrality. This left Amarillo politically and militairily divided. The Revolutionaries and Imperial government fought for control of the country. The Revolutionaries was supported by the Takavian Expeditionary Force, while the Imperial side received volunteers from Pasifa. Other countries, primairly those in the Drakaeslands, continued to recognise the Imperial government but followed a policy of non-intervention.

The Revolutionaries and the Takavians advanced from their strongholds, from the north of the country, capturing Torham by the 4th of April. Subsequently, they'd capture Etruia on the 5th of April which would immediately cause the dissolution of the Imperial government and the deposition of the Empress, who'd die later on the same day. Following the collapse of the Amarillian Empire and the deposition and death of the Empress, the revolutionary coalition fell to pieces, initiating the Interregnum period. During this period, Nationalist Liberal Republicans, Pan-Drakaen Despotic Republicans and Nationalist Moderate Royalists struggled to emerge as the sole authority in Amarillo. Finally, the Nationalist Liberal Republicans would become the dominant power in Amarillo after they captured Puerto Amarillo from an alliance of the Pan-Drakaen Despotic Republicans and the Nationalist Moderate Royalists on the 8th of April.
