Editing History of Zamastan (section)

====Assassination====
On September 29th, 1972, amid a rising capitalist economy and flourishing republican styled government, and in the wake of President Marvin Gaviria’s 23rd term reelection to office, he stood in front of a crowd on the stairs of [[Congressional Hall (Zamastan)|Congressional Hall]] in Tofino. His approval was sitting at 94%, the highest of any president in Zamastanian history. As he addressed the crowd nearly three minutes into his speech, he grabbed his chest, buckled forward to the podium, and collapsed to the stage. Seconds later, the bang of a sniper rifle bore through the air and the crowd scattered. Around an hour later, authorities found the sniper’s nest on the forty-third floor of an under-construction skyscraper two miles away. Security footage captured someone leaving the scene with the gun, but the perpetrator was never identified, the rifle was never recovered, and the case was never solved. It remains the greatest mystery of Zamastan history. Spawning countless conspiracy theories, the [[Assassination of Marvin Gaviria]] rivals even that of the JFK assassination.
