  • The Alanis Pride Parade Bombing, also commonly referred to as the Alanis Terror Attack was a terror attack perpetrated by a member of the Malvarian Liberation Front on June 18th, 1983, in Alanis, Zamastan. The attack targeted a parade celebrating the legalization of same-sex marriage in Zamastan following legislation signed by President Cassious Castovia. This attack was originally thought to be perpetrated by a radical hate group, which was condemned by Castovia and the leaders of nearly every allied nation of Zamastan’s. However, it was soon discovered that the bombing was carried out by the M.L.F. operating out of the newly founded nation of Vulkaria. The bombing and several more attacks throughout the next week was the leading cause of Zamastan's invasion into Vulkaria.

    Other attacks

    Throughout the rest of the week, many more attacks took place against other targets. Most were small attacks that failed to kill people, however, two attacks did occur that involved multiple casualties- both fatalities and injuries. These events pressed Zamastan’s interest beyond domestic policy for the first time since the second world war. The first of these occurred on June 20th, where a bomb detonated outside of the Presidential Mansion in Tofino, killing seven security guards and four tourists. President Castovia wasn’t injured, but the glass windows of the Gaviria Room in which he was sitting did shatter and injure some of his aides. The second attack was a mass stabbing at the Tofino Airport which resulted in the deaths of three people and the injuries of nearly forty more.
