Orange Revolution

The Orange Revolution was a civil war fought in the nation of Emperica between the reigning Fasco-Monarchist regime and the Ultranationalist rebels. This is generally considered one of the bloodiest wars in Jehr's history, excluding the Aurora Wars, with collective military casualties numbering roughly six million, and the civilian casualties believed to be slightly below that number.

Warnings
It is the generally accepted notion that the Orange Revolution began because the Emperican people were sick and tired of the Grand Emperican regime's oppression and brutality.

This is where the battle cry, "For liberty, for justice, for Emperica!", comes from. Also in this address, he issued an ultimatum to his father and the rest of the 'royalist' royal family: if they did not vacate the Imperial Citadel and give up their power by the end of the year, they would be cast out by the force of the Emperican people, the 'Ultranationalists'.

War
By January 1st, 2152, the Royalists had not given up powers. Another chilling and dramatic announcement was made over the various media networks of Emperica - for failure to comply with their ultimatum, the Ultranationalists would hunt down and kill every single member of the still Royalist royal family. Anyone who stood in their way would be slaughtered in the name of the common good.

On January 2nd, the Ultranationalists had mobilized the
