Carnation Revolution (CoG)

Background
The people in Garxeto were restless since the annexation by Uraka. Many of Garxeto's Citizenry were part of the Sans Monarchie (A radical urban-based group loosely based on the Sans Coulotte of the French Revolution) and saw the treaty which vassalized CoG as invalid. Due to this, the restless population had joined many Krakhovite societies around the city, the most prominent one being the Krakhovite Party of Garxijos which operated in the entire CoG region. The Krakhovites planned many protests and riots, all leading up the Revolution, in an attempt to destabilize Uraki occupation and throw them out entirely.

What kicked the entire Revolution off was the Revolt in Grander Stultum. With Uraka's declaration of war on Stultum, many of the citizenry in Garxeto had had enough. Organized by the Krakhovite Party of Garxijos, and by its leader Makhno, an armed mob broke into the Armory protected by sympathetic guards.

Revolt
After this break in of the Armory, the citizens stole whatever gunpowder and rifles they could find and marched on the Parliament Building in the center of town which housed the former CoG ministers and their every day dealings. Setting up a furniture barricade in front of the building and in the streets surrounding it, they prepared for an attack by the Garxijos National Guard and the Uraki Military. When they did show up, they showed up in force. 5,600 Uraki and Garxijos Infantry vs the Revolutionaries armed 2,300 and further 45,000 unarmed civilians.

As the Uraki/Garxijos forces marched into the city, they were constantly harassed by mobs of unarmed civilians throwing flowers and carnations onto the marching columns, repairing the barricades, and throwing furniture outside of their houses to slow the impending army down. When they did reach the blocks controlled by the Revolutionaries, the opening fire was catastrophic. Around 200~ were shot dead, many were of the Garxijos National Guard; in comparison to the Revolutionaries 15. The Barricades, it appeared, had worked and prevented the Revolutionaries would take a lot of damage. In response to this, the Uraki 4th Legion would bring up 4 HC Mark II Cannons given to them by the Helsian Army to assist. These cannons would cause devastating damage on the barricades surrounding the main building, however could not be used on the main barricade itself due to the cultural importance and the risk of further revolt if they damaged the Parliamentary building.

Charge of the 6th Legion
The Revolutionaries would be armed with Wheellock Rifle Mark IV, Helsian rifles stolen by the raid on the armory, proving to be deadly in Combat. With the Revolutionaries dealing blow after blow, the Uraki and Garxijos Forces unable to deal major damage due to the barricades used, a deadly charge was ordered. What wasn't known to the Uraki and Garxijos Forces was that the Revolutionaries were ALSO armed with Pancioni made flamethrowers, smuggled in by the Krakhovite Party for this exact moment. When the Uraki 6th CoG Legion closed in on the barricade, they were met with flames dealing major blows - outright killing their commander and second in command. Despite this however, they were able to close the gap as the flamethrowers had too many bodies to burn and not enough distance to do it. The close combat was ferocious, both sides equally matched using whatever they could as weapons. Rifles as clubs, tomahawks, knives, cutlass', scimitars, furniture, whatever they could find and could use.

End + Losses
In the end, their losses rapidly mounting, the Garxijos National Guard broke first. Then the Uraki Legions. And soon, their entire force fell back in a disorganized and disorderly retreated. The civilians, cheering, continued to throw carnations not only upon the retreating forces, but on the victors. After the last Uraki had fully backed out of the city, the civilians crammed the streets in joyous occasion, tearing down the old CoG flag and placing a new one - a red one. In the end, 3,400 Uraki/Garxijos were casualties of the conflict, in contrast to the Revolutionaries 560~. Unknown Civilian Casualties, likely little.

Declaring the Commune of Garxeto, the Carnation Revolution is noted for its success in insurmountable odds, as well for its Anti-Uraka sentiment and being the first CoG revolt since January.
