Background

In late 663, the Kodiak Republic was plunged into civil war as communist militants seceded in the province of Sjokalade following large scale strikes. Military progress was slow due to a combination of outdated hardware and fierce resistance. On the home front, the Kodiak National Front, a paramilitary force supported by the government, acted in some cases as a police force. This culminated in a violent attack in the town of Luton, where 72 pro-Commune protestors were beaten to death by members of the KNF at a political rally.

Opposition to the Maltravers administration grew within the General Assembly as many called for the war to be ended either by the Commune's total annihilation, or through negotiations.
Within the administration, members of the National Unity Party took a further hard-line stance, cementing the policy of no negotiation as well as pushing the military to do more. It was at this time where Chancellor Maltravers started showing signs of mental illness, frequently entering tirades accusing any and all of being communists.
