Editing Second Slokaisian Civil War (section)

==Background==
[[Juan Costa]] had ruled Slokais for 14 years before the Civil War. In that time he had quickly turned the country to his personal ideals. The RPLA or Reformist Peoples Liberation Army was formed as a police force for the [[National Reform Party of Slokais]] they often patrolled major cities putting down dissent. Those who opposed Costa were often thrown in jail extra-judicially such as Robert Marques who in 1956 was thrown in jail for "crimes against the state". Marques protested against re-education camps that often took children and teens out of their schools. In October of 1960, the RPLA destroyed an entire community center in Southland, for crimes against the state" 20 people died in the explosion, and many others were injured, following protests erupted in Southland, they were soon joined by others fed up with the government. The RPLA was called in when the protests reached Government Hill, the RPLA responded with violence and soon there were riots throughout the city. In San Sabla however, a group known as "Revolution for Slokais" held on to a police building for almost 2 weeks despite many attacks. However, by November, they were all arrested and in the following months, the RPLA conducted daily raids on the homes of protest leaders.

After the [[Tearvan Straits Incident]] and the start of the [[Great War]]. John Costa declared a formal alliance with [[Darya]] stating that "We must defend against the liberals and the so-called "coalition of democratic forces" and their attempt to undermine our order". After this, an industrial mobilization was declared by executive order, which included the dissolution of trade unions and the declaration of martial law. For many, this was a rallying cry and large-scale protests began across [[Slokais Islands]]. In response, the "Safe Security and Defense Act" was created calling for a mass draft of 150,000 men to "combat reactionary forces".   

===1962===
The Free Democratic Forces (FDF) took control of the government of East Acadia, the FDF was a [[Minjian Faith|Minjian]] based group that quickly became targets. The Battle of Santa Cruz del Rio was the first true battle of the war as FDF forces with support from other groups captured a military base in East Xiang Province. This prompted Juan Costa to declare a nationwide draft intended to add 1 million troops to the already quickly growing military. This prompted protests in major cities against the draft, with many government-issued draft cards being burned. In October, rebel forces stopped ship traffic on the Salvador Canal leading to the [[Battle of Salvador City]].

In February, Darya and Slokais Islands launched an invasion of Haesan, this invasion also coincided with a wave of new recruitment and the expansion of the Reform Party Liberation Army to act as police units. 

===1971===
On June 27th, 1971, the United Federation of Slokais Islands was reformed thus creating a new state.
