Kromząmske and Tarnochowice conflict

== About ==
The Kromząmske and Tarnochowice conflict (aka. Konflikt w Kromzańskie i Tarnochowie), was a civil war that occurred in the State of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice from the beginning of the Zedrutian Revolution in 1969 to the final eradication of rebel holdouts in the years between 1992 and 1994, and was fought between the Zedrutian Armed Forces led by Ryszard Kornel, with the United Zedrutian People's Resistance backing them in the civil war, against the Zedrutian Communist Party and it's military wing, the Zedrutian National Liberation Army led by Aleksander Jeremiasz, and other splinter groups which gained notoriety throughout the civil wars, such as the Zedrutian People's Resistance led by Wojtek Sergiusz, and the Zedrutian Socialist Fighters of Freedom, led by Konrad Aleks. This civil war would later be known as Zedrutia's "Shingleton", due to the region gaining notoriety from terrorist attacks, and violent events which occurred within the past 30 years, which reflected the events of what had happened in the regions of both Bistonian and New Shingleton each located between the two countries. 
Although many see the escalation and the subsequent beginning of the "Situation in Tarnochowice" as the beginning of the civil war in the year of 1972, it is believed that the civil war began during the late event of the Zedrutian Revolution in 1969, when all opposition to the military government fled to the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice to seek refuge from the oppressive regime, began an uprising which shook the entire region to its core, resulting in the collapse of authority and becoming one of the provinces which were mostly affected following the revolution. It was here that the banned Zedrutian Communist Party, fled to the region and an army, led by the exiled Zedrutian revolutionary, Aleksander Jeremiasz, who had an experience in partisan activity as a 5 year old child in Ruralian-occupied Zedrutia, formed the military wing known as the Zedrutian National Liberation Army, and were built from the ground up with the help of munitions which were abandoned from the Zedrutian authorities. In 1970, the Zedrutian provisional government attempted to restore order to the region, only to be met with rebels which had started to form resistance groups which demanded for a revolution in all of Zedrutia, with factions belonging to either fascist, or communists. Subsequently order was restored, but with the eradication of the fascist-led revolutionaries in the region, it allowed for the continued growth of the Zedrutian National Liberation Army, and with a force of around tens of thousands of strong active personnel, began their attack on the entire region.
The entire region of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice completely fell after an offensive which Aleksander Jeremiasz called as the "People's Revolution on the Month of July", overran and engulfed the entire regions, leaving only Kromząmske and Tarnochowice, the two cities, remain under the control of the Zedrutian government. The Zedrutian Armed Forces was forced to evacuate all of its remaining personnel and civilians in the regions. With the ZNLA completely occupying the entire region, Aleksandar Jeremiasz called for the communist revolution in Zedrutia and for all the Zedrutian people to revolt, but had backfired, as the formation of the United Zedrutian People's Resistance, led by Jakub Ernest, revolted in the northwestern regions on the outskirts of Tarnochowice, leading to further instability in Jeremiasz's control over the island. A coup d'etat eventually occurred after the UZPR launched counter attacks with the help of returning personnel from the Zedrutian Armed Forces, and Aleksandar Jeremiasz went into hiding in the regions once again. The Zedrutian People's Resistance was formed in the aftermath of the overthrow of Aleksandar Jeremiasz, which led to the first division of the Zedrutian Communist Party into two factions, with the main and largest one being the Zedrutian National Liberation Army, and of course, the Zedrutian People's Resistance, known as the ZPR, led by Jeremiasz Przemo, who opposed against Jeremiasz's new policies. The ZPR subsequently collapsed, and thus, Kromząmske and Tarnochowice was returned once again to the rule of the Zedrutian government.
The Zedrutian government was unable to control it and had only controlled the region for a brief period till 1976, when the riots in Kromząmske and Tarnochowice shook the entire country to its core after demonstrations led to violent crackdowns following the Zedrutian economic crash, and was forced to withdraw all of the Zedrutian Armed Forces in 1976, which led to the reemergence of the Zedrutian National Liberation Army and the Zedrutian Communist Party, in which the communist party's military wing was now fractured into two, which created further complications well into the years. With the Zedrutian Communist Party now gaining victory in the subsequent captures of the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice cities, Aleksandar Jeremiasz was once again in power over the entire country. However, with the Zedrutian People's Resistance, and once again, the reemergence of the United Zedrutian People's Resistance, Aleksandar Jeremiasz blamed the problem on traitors, and as a result led hundreds of thousands of people to their deaths in pits and camps, targeting those who owned businesses, factories or large plots of land in the year of 1984, and by then his entire country, now known as the Zedrutian People's Republic, or simply known as the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice People's Republic, receives support mostly from the People's Republic of Crimsonia, which provided military aid and supervisors which helped to build the army Aleksandar Jeremiasz had wanted, to defend his country.
Unfortunately, the genocide by Aleksandar Jeremiasz, and his brutal dictatorship, was brought to an end. The Zedrutian Armed Forces, with the assistance of the remnants of the United Zedrutian People's Resistance, began Operation Kromząmske in 1986, leading to the subsequent capture of the capital city, Kromząmske, and subsequently, the capture of Aleksandar Jeremiasz and his execution, which led to the collapse of the Zedrutian People's Republic. The Zedrutian People's Resistance, which was initially loyal to Aleksandar Jeremiasz, took over what was left of the Zedrutian People's Republic, with the country now led by Jeremiasz Przemo once again. However, his temporary lead over the country collapsed, as more groups began to splinter from the Zedrutian People's Resistance, such as the Resistance Committee for the Liberation of Tarnochowice, (RCLT), and the Zedrutian Socialist Fighters of Freedom. Despite their motives to attempt to take over the remnants of the country, these specific splinter groups ended up forming a united front led by the Zedrutian People's Resistance, but subsequently lost as all of the Zedrutian Armed Forces had now occupied all of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice, with the exception of rural regions.
Throughout the events after 1986, the Zedrutian Communist Party further declined, and with the destruction of numerous rebel holdouts and the complete destruction of the Resistance Committee for the Liberation of Tarnochowice, the fight for the communist revolution in Zedrutia was slowly dwindling. Finally, in 1992, a raid conducted swiftly by the Zedrutian special forces, led to the capture of remaining rebel forces and subsequently, the dissolution of both the Zedrutian People's Resistance and the Zedrutian National Liberation Front. By then, the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice conflict had ended, lasting for almost 30 years. The Kromząmske and Tarnochowice conflict was one of the bloodiest conflicts in all of modern Zedrutian history, and definitely, one of the most tragic events in all of Zedrutia, as a genocide had occurred once again on Zedrutian soil. The conflict strained relationships between Zedrutia and Crimsonia aswell, becoming a common issue within both of the countries politics for decades.
== Background ==
=== Ruralian occupation of Zedrutia ===
In 1941, the Ruralians invaded the Republic of Zedrutia, and within weeks, the Zedrutian government immediately capitulated. On the island, the Ruralians began an offensive to capture the entire region in one direction, landing on the city of Kromząmske and in the process destroying most of its factories and coal mines, which were vital to the cities economy. The Ruralians then subsequently captured the railways leading to Tarnochowice, in which the Zedrutian garrison there immediately surrendered upon orders from the Zedrutian government, which surrendered to the Ruralians days prior. By then, all of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice was occupied by the Ruralians, and were divided each into two military administration districts. 
Immediately after the occupation, the Ruralians began to suppress dissent, and began the persecution and introducing social changes during the occupation. The Ruralians issued notices to all citizens in the regions to report people of Jewish descent, in which they were offered protection and refuge from the Ruralian army, and those who did not cooperate, faced torture or often persecution from the Ruralian occupation authorities. The occupation would soon turn into a nightmare as the Ruralian occupation authorities began the construction of the Tarnochowice and Kromząmske ghettos, where the Jewish minority in Zedrutia would reside. Brick walls were constructed to divide parts of the cities into two sections, which showed the brutality of the occupation. It did not take long for the Ruralian occupation authorities to systematically massacre hundreds of Zedrutian Jews annually, and with depleting resources and the devastating consequences of the occupation, it prompted the beginning of the partisan uprisings in the region.
==== Formation of the Tarnochowice Partisans ====
The Tarnochowice Partisans were initially founded by Jewish dissidents in the Tarnochowice Ghetto, being responsible for acts of sabotage against Ruralian troops stationed in the ghetto, and aided in providing foods and printing posters which advocated the total destruction of the Ruralian occupations, but would later on grow thanks to the assistance of others who aided the partisans in Tarnochowice. Those who lived outside the ghetto walls in the city of Tarnochowice, did not just provide food, but provided munitions, arms and anything they could possibly smuggle into the city without being caught by the Ruralian authorities. It did not take long for the Tarnochowice Partisans to continue growing, as they began carrying out activities which led to the death of a Ruralian commander, who was in charge of dealing with resistance across the occupied Zedrutian territories. By then, the Ruralian occupation authorities would take extreme drastic measures. If one Ruralian was killed, it meant that a hundred Zedrutians would be dead, and the blame would be immediately pinned on the partisans. The partisans of Tarnochowice would not continue to kill one more Ruralian, until the time was right.
By 1943, the Ruralian occupation was over. The Allied invasion of Zedrutia in 1943 with mostly help from the Dominion of St. Ark, led to the collapse of the Ruralian collaborationist states, the Independent State of Vakolov, the State of Starobryzn, and many more. This meant that the Ruralians were no longer able to hold onto the island of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice, which was now facing an imminent partisan uprising. By then, the time was right for the Tarnochowice Partisans, and an uprising occurred in the Tarnochowice Ghetto, resulting in the destruction of the entire Ruralian garrison there. Partisans eventually destroyed the gates out of the ghetto, and entered the city of Tarnochowice where they were hailed as heroes and the entire city had been liberated. By then, tens of thousands of partisans joined the fight, and by then, an uprising in Kromząmske had also occurred, this time in a massive scale compared to the ones in Tarnochowice. The entire island fell into the hands of the partisans, and the Ruralians were kicked out of the island never to occupy it again. 
By then, a temporary government was established by the partisans in late 1943 after the Ruralians were subsequently kicked out of the island. Known as the Partisan's Republic of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice, it only lasted for a brief period until the Allied Forces landed on the city of Kromząmske, having been liberated the two cities months earlier, the partisans welcomed them with open arms, and by then, the partisans signed an agreement allowing them for a peaceful transition of power to a military administration. Despite this, the Tarnochowice Partisans remained, and by then was disintegrated and fractured into numerous partisan groups, which remained dormant throughout the region well into the end of the war. The partisan uprising was seen as the beginning of the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice conflict, as the region would later be seen as the region of a heroic resistance, and something that would further influence such partisan groups. 
=== Post-war period and military government ===
Unfortunately in the post-war period, life was not well for the Zedrutian people, especially in the region of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice. In 1946, after the withdrawal of allied forces from Zedrutia, Wiktor August Drewnowski, who was known as a Ruralian collaborator and former military officer of the Independent State of Vakolov, and was a former member of the Kruma, and recruited during the reorganization and reformation of the Zedrutian Armed Forces, overthrew the Zedrutian provisional government which had been set up, establishing a military dictatorship over the entire country which would be known as the State of Zedrutia. During the period of the military dictatorship, Wiktor August Drewnowski began cracking down on political parties which opposed his dictatorship, and in retaliation, most of these opposition parties came and fled to several regions across Zedrutia to begin a guerilla campaign throughout the rest of the country. One of these parties, which would later on be known as the Zedrutian Socialist Party, fled to the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice region to establish a rebel base, before later on reorganizing and forming a rebel army, which would later on be known as the Zedrutian National Liberation Army. By then, most of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice had been largely rebuilt in the post-war period, but the cities themselves face hardship during the military dictatorship. 
In 1958, the State of Zedrutia declared war against the People's Republic of Crimsonia over disputes regarding an archipelago in the Zedrutian and Bistonian seas. This resulted in conscription laws being enacted by the military junta in Zedrutia which was accepted by Wiktor August Drewnowski, which would force many of those aged above 18 to enter conscription and join the war against Crimsonian forces. However, as the general opinion of the military government was declining, and a majority of Zedrutia's population protesting against the war, workers began strikes the following year in the city of Kromząmske, which led to instability in the region. The Zedrutian Armed Forces were deployed there, and responded with shootings which led to the deaths of around hundreds to thousands of unarmed workers who went on the strike. This led to further protests which escalated, which turned into riots and overwhelmed the Zedrutian Armed Forces, especially with the war effort which was quickly deteriorating. Eventually, the Zedrutian-Crimsonian conflict was brought to an abrupt stop, as Wiktor August Drewnowski declared that all Zedrutian forces should return home immediately. Both sides declared a ceasefire, and the conflict was frozen until a peace treaty had been signed.
=== Zedrutian Revolution ===
In the years after the Zedrutian-Crimsonian Conflict, and the crimes which were carried out by the Zedrutian Armed Forces in Kromząmske and Tarnochowice, the brutal crimes of Drewnowski's military junta would eventually attribute to the founding of underground movements which advocated for democracy and liberalization in the region, which sprung up all across mainland Zedrutia including Kromząmske and Tarnochowice, where left-wing movements such as the Zedrutian Socialist Party began recruiting more of its members and even advocated for a socialist republic in Zedrutia. A majority of these underground movements were founded by students, political opponents and dissidents in the country, who were disillusioned with Drewnowski's absolute authority over the entire country. These underground movements grew in size and were given recognition with illegal rallies being held in several cities across Zedrutia. Drewnowski saw the growth as very concerning, as it posed a threat to his authority. Thus, he began a purge of some who opposed his rule, which resulted in assassinations under the Zedrutian secret services, and led to a massive outcry from the population. 
The Zedrutian Revolution began days after the murder of the leader of an underground movement, Henryk Lewski, when demonstrations began in outcry of his death in Byeradzina, a coastal city in the western regions of mainland Zedrutia. Drewnowski's military force was deployed to the city, which resulted in the massive protests being put down by gunfire. This resulted in continued outrage by the Zedrutian public, and subsequently led to protests all across mainland Zedrutia. Workers begin striking all across the cities, and civilians began violent riots across large urban areas across Zedrutia. It then spread to Vakolov, Starobryzn, and then Pustokopsk, and Zarush. The Zedrutian Revolution began spreading to the city of Kromząmske, where workers began strikes, and students joined in the crowd in support of demonstrations in mainland Zedrutia, and the Zedrutian Armed Forces were subsequently deployed there and given the order to kill demonstrators in Kromząmske. It was also during this time that protests began in Tarnochowice aswell, resulting in the Zedrutian authority in the region to be stretched to its limits.
==== Escalation of violence and beginning of the civil war ====
As the Zedrutian Armed Forces were sent to Kromząmske and Tarnochowice, their brutal crackdowns were seen to be completely effective. The deaths of possibly around thousands of unarmed workers and students led to the rise of violent attacks towards military personnel of the Zedrutian military, and led to violent mobs which subsequently outnumbered units and had barrels of weapons seized by the angry crowd. As the situation in Kromząmske worsened, the Zedrutian military garrison in Tarnochowice was also forced to surrender, as they were completely surrounded by tens of thousands of rioters and had all of their weapons seized and used against the Zedrutian military, which attempted to restore order. Zedrutian military personnel also defected, and some deserted. Most of these Zedrutian military personnel defected to resistance groups, whilst others stayed to be a part of the Zedrutian National Liberation Army decades later. 
Authority in Kromząmske subsequently collapsed as rioters had possessed weapons and seized the city hall where the remaining Zedrutian units took their final stand against the rioters during the later stages of the Zedrutian Revolution. As the remaining Zedrutian units fled from Kromząmske without being given orders to retreat from the city, rioters cheered on and applaud as the Zedrutian government was no longer in control of Kromząmske. Authority also collapsed in Tarnochowice, as the military garrison there, along with the police, surrendered to the rioters just a few days prior before the fall of Kromząmske. Both cities fell into anarchy as rioters, which had now possessed firearms, began clashing with eachother, along with what was left of Zedrutian military units and those who were against the rioters. Parts of Kromząmske was set ablaze along with Tarnochowice as most of mainland Zedrutia continued demonstrating and watching as the Zedrutian Revolution unfolded in Kromząmske and Tarnochowice.
==== Rise of the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice resistance groups ====
With the events of the Zedrutian Revolution unfolding, and during its peak when Drewnowski's government was falling apart, members of political dissident groups which fled to the region of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice, began reemerging from the region to take advantage of the chaotic situations, and began the long marches towards the city of Kromząmske, where if the city was fallen under the hands of the rebels, it would allow for them to gain a foothold and allow them to capture the entire region, and would lead them to the city of Tarnochowice. Fighting between the rebel groups and rioters continued, and the entire city was surrounded by flames as cars were piled to create barricades around the entire city. By then, the largest rebel group in the city, which belonged to the former Zedrutian Socialist Party, took over the city hall in Kromząmske, declaring control over the entire region, but was unable to solidify their control over the entire city, as several rebel groups, including those belonging to far-right groups, continued clashing for control over the city centers in Kromząmske, resulting in continued anarchy and continued fighting for months. 
In Tarnochowice, the situation was not worse compared to Kromząmske. When some rebel groups reemerged and took the advance to Kromząmske, a few of them arrived to the city of Tarnochowice, where they attempted to establish order instead of fighting to control the city, but were unable to do so as the military garrison which surrendered eventually changed their minds after the rebels took over the city and continued fighting over control for the city. As the Zedrutian Revolution spread throughout the country, and the Zedrutian military on the verge of falling into a state of disarray, Zedrutian rioters eventually seized the center of Kiezyn, resulting in the fall of Drewnowski's regime, and with the Zedrutian military defecting to the side of the rioters, the bloody Zedrutian Revolution was finally over and ended with the establishment of a Zedrutian provisional government.
=== After the revolution ===
After the Zedrutian Revolution, and the collapse of Drewnowski's regime, a provisional government was set in place. Although there was a hope of peace and stability in the mainland, that was not the case for the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice regions. It was now a region that was now under the thumb of many other resistance groups, and authority in the region had completely collapsed as all of the remaining personnel from both cities had either surrendered, killed, or deserted from their positions. All remaining authority in the region had belonged to a series of rebel groups which were beginning to fight for control over the city, some which were made up by defectors from the Zedrutian Armed Forces and the local police in both Kromząmske and Tarnochowice. Some of these rebel groups were either partisans, or those who declared themselves as fascist, with those who were supportive for the regime. It is around this time that the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice conflict would begin. 
Renewed conflicts between the partisans and those who continued to be loyal to Drewnowski, including factions which belonged to those who deserted from the Zedrutian Armed Forces occurred in the city of Kromząmske. By the beginning of 1970, heavy clashes between both sides occurred for control over the city center, including the town hall in order to gain control over the city or at least have de-jure control over the city. Civilians were also involved in the clashes, in which as a result of continued clashes, around an approximate 300 civilians died as a result of the daily shootouts which occurred. Entire businesses had been torched as a result of rebels throwing molotov cocktails into positions which were set up by the opposing sides, and entire city streets had been blocked by burned out cars. Kromząmske was a shell of its former self as a result of these clashes, and soon the shootouts begin spreading throughout the city and its outskirts, resulting in an approximate thousands dead, although some had stated that the estimates were higher, up to around 3,000. Finally, the partisans had control over the city center including the town hall, declaring their de jure control over the city, although remaining factions continued fighting in the streets. 
In Tarnochowice, the situation was similar. Although the garrison there had surrendered to many of the protestors, their weapons had been confiscated and groups of people were in the process of forming separate factions also to gain control over the city. Many personnel from the garrison in Tarnochowice had been slaughtered by the angry mob, with their corpses being reported to be hanged at the entrance of the building where the garrison was held in. Tarnochowice entered into a state of anarchy as soon as authority collapsed. Several factions would soon attempt to gain control over sections of the city, setting fire to many buildings in an attempt to slow down each of the opposing sides advances. Some of these continued clashes led to the deaths of hundreds of civilians, with estimated to be higher. Eventually, the city further plunged deeper into chaos as the railway leading from Tarnochowice to Kromząmske was closed down and destroyed as a result of bombs planted by the partisans in an attempt to starve many of the population in Tarnochowice into submission. 
==== The Zedrutian Armed Forces reestablish order ====
By then, mainland Zedrutia had been mostly stabilized mainly due to the efforts of the Zedrutian Armed Forces. Although they had already reestablished order in the mainland and became their top priority, their neglect of the regions in Kromząmske and Tarnochowice was seen as a matter of controversy still within the Zedrutian public opinion, especially after the events of the violent Zedrutian Revolution which had occurred a year prior. By April 1970, the council within the Zedrutian provisional government declared that personnel of the Zedrutian Armed Forces would be deployed to the region in order to reestablish order and control over the two cities which had plunged further deep into a chaotic urban war between several rebel groups. Around 12,000 personnel were deployed to the city of Kromząmske, with further plans to also reestablish order in the city of Tarnochowice.
But, as the Zedrutian Armed Forces arrived to Kromząmske, they were immediately attacked by partisans, which had now occupied a large portion of most of the city, with many of the remaining factions continuing to control the areas outside of the city itself. The Zedrutian Armed Forces were well equipped and were well trained to deal with some of the partisans, but some attempts to secure points of the city were proven to be difficult. A convoy of the Zedrutian Armed Forces, which contained around 1,000 men, were ambushed by partisans in the streets. The Zedrutian Armed Forces began clashing and fighting with many of the partisans in most areas of the city, and were finally able to reach to the city center. There, the partisans had already established their own head of government and attempted to control the city, but the Zedrutian Armed Forces began a heavy battle for control over the entire building. In the process, they managed to kill the leader of the partisan group, leaving the partisans without a leader and without a temporary government in the city. Thousands of civilians died as a result of the several clashes which had occurred.
According to a report from the personnel in Kromząmske, the situation was dire, but they had secured many points and had managed to deal many losses to the partisans, despite most of them being hidden. The partisans were dealing heavy casualties and losses to most of their equipment and men and two personnel would die as soon as a group of personnel attempted to run towards the streets. Many of the personnel sustained minor injuries as a result of bomb attacks in downtown Kromząmske, and they were being ambushed from every corner. It was only then that the Zedrutian Armed Forces reached to the city center, that the leadership was decapitated with the capture of the city hall by the Zedrutian Armed Forces in Kromząmske. After most areas of the city had been cleared, and the military had reestablished order in Kromząmske, many of the civilians in Kromząmske which had lived from the terror had cheered many of the convoys heading towards the outskirts of Kromząmske when they began clearing out many of the areas controlled by the factions. Many of the factions which fought against the partisans also joined with the Zedrutian Armed Forces, collaborating and capturing those who were suspected of partisan activity.
In the State of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice, Zedrutian military forces were again deployed to the port city of Kromząmske and would be faced with the task of securing and stabilizing the city in order to cool down the situation which resulted in numerous clashes between Zedrutian military forces and militias from the countrysides which had partially took over the city of Kromząmske, it would soon turn into a full conflict and the Zedrutian military forces pushed the rebels out of the city of Kromząmske, this created controversy around the Zedrutian provisional government and it was forced to leave the rebels alone.
In late 1969, the Second Republic of Zedrutia was established, ending the provisional government, this resulted in a slight series of stability in both Kromząmske and Tarnochowice but eventually later on the Zedrutian Communist Party would be created and would unite all of the militias and eventually take over the entire island.
In 1970, many of the rebels remain fighting against Zedrutian military forces in small groups but however a communist political member would eventually proclaim the Zedrutian Communist Party in the countryside areas of Tarnochowice and united all of the remaining militias from the former Zedrutian Revolution, eventually the ZCP would rise as an organized large rebel group. The Zedrutian Communist Party was founded as a result of the aftermath of the Zedrutian-Crimsonian conflict and many former veterans of the conflict arrived in the city of Tarnochowice in order to help in the fight.
The goals of the Zedrutian Communist Party were to unite the people into overthrowing the Republic of Zedrutian and establishing a communist state within Zedrutia and their goals would eventually start in the State of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice which would become the primary base to overthrow the Zedrutian government.
In late 1970, the Zedrutian military immediately alerted the government about a possible communist civil war as insurgents were spotted with communist symbols and many claim to plead allegiance to the supposed Zedrutian Communist Party, eventually the Zedrutian government responded to the alert by sending more forces to the countryside which would be proven ineffective. However by that point Zedrutia had stabilized and the Zedrutian military was ordered to withdraw from Kromząmske and Tarnochowice in late 1970 and Zedrutia did not take advantage to prevent the communist uprising.
== Course of the conflict ==
=== Beginning of the escalation (1970 - 1972) ===
==== The Zedrutian Communist Party expands their presence ====
==== The 1971 Tarnochowice bomb attack ====
The 1971 Tarnochowice Bomb Attack was an incident which occured in the city of Tarnochowice by forces belonging to the newly founded militia group called the Zedrutian Communist Party, it resulted in 12 people dead and 23 people injured and in the aftermath of the Tarnochowice Bomb Attacks the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice Conflict would begin which would be known as Zedrutia's Shingleton Conflict.
The bomb attack came in the morning early hours in the city of Tarnochowice when a vehicle containing bombs detonated infront of a train station resulting in 12 people dead and 23 people injured. Most of the bodies and the injured were taken to a hospital while police had contained the site to prevent any possible bomb attack. Eventually the bomb attack became public and would be displayed across Zedrutia. It was the first major bomb attack in Zedrutia and many panicked during the aftermath of the incident. Investigations revealed that a member allegedly belonging to the Zedrutian Communist Party was involved and that the bomb attack was to fufill political agenda. This resulted in the Zedrutian government deploying hundreds of troops to the city of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice and a curfew was instated and the Zedrutian Armed Forces would be deployed to the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice International Airport the following year in the bomb attacks.
The 1971 Tarnochowice Bomb Attack marked the official beginning of the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice Conflict which would last 3 decades before ending in 2007 when the Zedrutian Communist Party officially signed a peace treaty and it would be dismantled the following year.
==== The beginning of the 1972 Situation in Tarnochowice ====
By 1972, the State of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice had already stabilized and recovered completely from the bomb attacks carried out by the Zedrutian Communist Party and civillians continued on their ordinary life, however the Zedrutian Armed Forces remained scattered throughout the island in order to stabilize and look out for many rebels belonging to the ZCP despite their last sighting in 1971, despite that, the State of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice still had its setbacks. The Zedrutian Communist Party remains operating in the countryside areas under guerilla warfare and would terrify many personnel within the Zedrutian Armed Forces, skirmishes between the forces were very common and a lockdown was ensued.
In the prelude of the Tarnochowice Civil War, the Zedrutian government had announced martial law within the State of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice until 1973, however rebels from the Zedrutian Communist Party would take advantage of the martial law and in early 1972 Zedrutian military bases were attacked by rebel forces and two of them had been completely taken over and the rebels had reached the city of Tarnochowice, despite many of the Zedrutian military's attempts to quell down the operation they clashed towards eachother in the city of Tarnochowice eventually resulting in a decisive victory by the ZCP, at this point the Zedrutian Armed Forces began their complete withdrawal from the city of Tarnochowice and the Tarnochowice Civil War began.
Despite many resistance pockets in Tarnochowice, resistance was quelled by the ZCP and rebels were quickly directed to the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice Railway which would be considered an important route to the city of Kromząmske, as many areas fell under the ZCP the Zedrutian government went into panick and small forces were deployed to defend the frontlines of the brutal Tarnochowice Civil War. However they had failed and in mid 1972 most of the islands territories had been captured by ZCP rebels. Although forces managed to repell rebels from the city of Tarnochowice, they had been encircled.
By mid 1972, only the remaining large cities of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice remained under Zedrutian control including major roads and railways and it was viewed that the Zedrutian Armed Forces were capable of winning the war against the ZCP, but however the ZCP had stolen weapons and vehicles from captured military bases and ZCP's new arsenal forced the ZAF to highways and the two large cities.
==== The Zedrutian National Liberation Army occupies the entire region ====
==== Zedrutian government begins the evacuation of all civilians and soldiers from Kromzamske and Tarnochowice ====
In late 1972, the Tarnochowice Civil War was a loss for ZAF and in the following day the Zedrutian government would send an emergency and final broadcast to civillians living in Kromząmske and Tarnochowice through radio stations and would order the evacuation of civillians from the island in a airport in the city of Kromząmske by the Zedrutian Airforce and it would be supported by the Zedrutian airline FlyZarush the following day. The evacuation progress was rushed and the situation became chaotic as ZCP began moving into the city of Kromząmske at the midnight hours of the evacuation. At 11:53 PM a few Zedrutian military aircraft landed in the runway of the international airport and many civillians were evacuated. However during the process of evacuation and their takeoff, a ZF-12B1 military aircraft was shot down by ZCP rebels 10 minutes after takeoff. However eventually the ZAF pushed out many ZCP rebels from several districts of the city and defended it in order for more people to evacuate the city.
In the aftermath of the evacuation, a total of 7,000 civillians fled the city of Kromząmske as part of the Zedrutian military's efforts and eventually the last Zedrutian military aircraft was boarded along with one of the last troops in Kromząmske, eventually the Zedrutian military had completely withdrew from Kromząmske and the city fell into the hands of ZCP rebels an hour after their evacuation effort. In Tarnochowice over 12,000 civillians were evacuated before Zedrutia's complete withdrawal from the region in one of Zedrutia's last operation airforce bases. The next day the Zedrutian government had completely abandoned the province of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice in 1972, marking the end of the Tarnochowice Civil War.

==== Jeremiasz's call towards the Zedrutian government ====
==== Formation of the anti-communist United Zedrutian People's Resistance ====
The United Zedrutian People's Resistance (aka. UZPR) is an anti-communist resistance front established by former Zedrutian military officials and ZAF remnants in a drastic attempt to defeat the rebel forces of the Zedrutian Communist Party and reestablish Zedrutian rule in the province of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice. It consists of former militia groups during the Zedrutian Revolution and the UZPR had occupied the eastern coast of Tarnochowice. It would eventually be dismantled in 1999.
In the morning hours of complete ZCP rule of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice, many ZCP remnants fled to the eastern coast of Tarnochowice and along with generals formed a united resistance front known as the United Zedrutian People's Resistance and many civillians flocked to the eastern coast to fight for their cause. They used equipment abandoned by the ZAF and in 1973 half of the east coast of Tarnochowice fell under the hands of the UZPR and after an offensive they had captured a portion of the northern territories of the province and by mid 1973 they had marched in a short distance of the city of Tarnochowice. They would launch an operation and ambushed several positions in the northern district of Tarnochowice.
==== UZPR's influence grows across the region ====
==== The Battle for Tarnochowice ====
The Siege of Tarnochowice began in 1974 as the Zedrutian Armed Forces and the United Zedrutian People's Front clash against the Zedrutian Communist Party in the city of Tarnochowice, the siege would last over a week and would result in a decisive victory by government forces and the UZPR after the northern areas of the city were captured by ZAF forces with the help of the UZPR and the complete withdrawal of rebel forces and generals from the southern parts of the city. The Siege of Tarnochowice also contributed to the collapse of ZCP controlled territory.
The Siege of Tarnochowice officially began when ZCP rebels were forced to retreat after a skirmish in the northern highways leading to the city, news of a potential battle which would capture the entire city began spreading to the main command of the ZCP, the administration responded by sending 4 of its best equipped divisions to the city and the frontlines and promised to many of the people living within the area that many of its forces would secure the city from falling. However there were many setbacks as many of these best equipped divisions were largely outnumbered by thousands of incoming troops.
After a fierce clash between the Zedrutian Armed Forces and ZCP rebels, the ZAF managed to breach into the gateway of the northern city of Tarnochowice and many rebel forces ran away before they could potentially damage roads and bridges leading into the city as Zedrutian forces began rapidly moving in the city and the rebels fled without any fierce resistance and began setting defenses in the city center of northern Tarnochowice, after heavy bombardments the defenses would finally be weakened and Zedrutian government forces began breaching the defenses. Many buildings in the northern parts of the city were also bombarded out of fear of snipers sabotaging their operations including potential ambushes by rebel forces and many civillians were executed. In the aftermath of the destruction of many of its defences in the city center of northern Tarnochowice Zedrutian forces moved into the city center and the rebels were forced to flee the northern areas of Tarnochowice by crossing the river that divided the city and destroyed main bridges leading to the city putting advancements by the ZAF to a halt.
As a result of rebel forces evacuating completely from northern Tarnochowice, the administration within Kromząmske was immediately alerted of the capture of northern Tarnochowice and in a panic decided to deploy more divisions to defend southern Tarnochowice from falling into the hands of the Zedrutian Armed Forces, however in the process of the deployment of more divisions towards the frontlines of Tarnochowice an uprising erupted in several districts across southern Tarnochowice and divisions which were intended to be deployed to the river were redirected to the districts in order to quell the uprising which failed as the Zedrutian Armed Forces began bombarding the city behind enemy lines using artillery shells which disrupted supply lines for rebel troops in combat.
A few days during the siege, ZCP rebel forces were exhausted as the Zedrutian Armed Forces continuously bombard Tarnochowice in order to quell operations aimed at quelling the city uprising and a meeting between commanders and generals were held in the city center of southern Tarnochowice and after a short brief it was decided that the ZCP should withdraw from the city of Tarnochowice including its surroundings in order to further secure and defend the city of Kromząmske which was the temporary capital during the occupation and a broadcast was held demanding all troops and commanders living within southern Tarnochowice would be evacuated by convoys and would let many of the civillians temporarily stay in the districts until further notice however the truth was revealed that many ZCP officials demanded that none of the civillians escape the city by convoys due to the uprising that occured in southern Tarnochowice and left most of the civillians to be killed by artillery shells coming from the northern parts of the city. However a team composed of resistance fighters from the United Zedrutian People's Resistance led most civillian groups underground to evacuate to northern Tarnochowice and provided food and necessities in order for many of them to continue to survive the siege.
In the aftermath of the complete evacuation of Tarnochowice, the Zedrutian Armed Forces crossed the river and entered southern Zedrutia using a bridge temporarily constructed and used the sewage system with the help of the United Zedrutian People's Resistance with directions to reach certain areas within the city and hundreds of ZCP rebel forces were captured in the process and hours later after further inspection of the city the Zedrutian Armed Forces and their tanks rolled into the city center of southern Tarnochowice, marking the end of the week long siege and beginning the collapse of the occupied territories of the ZCP.
In the early morning hours the news of Tarnochowice falling under the hands of the Zedrutian Armed Forces were broadcasted nationwide across Zedrutia with thousands of people in the streets of Tarnochowice celebrating the outcome of the siege, but as a result of the weeks long siege and the heavy bombardment of southern Tarnochowice the city was nearly destroyed beyond recognition as many iconic landmarks from the 19th centuries were destroyed including historical statues and streets and thousands died as a result of operations within the Zedrutian Armed Forces and the district uprisings.
==== The Zedrutian National Liberation Army splinters into two factions ====
==== Aleksandar Jeremiasz's government is overthrown ====
Eventually the leadership of the ZCP in the province of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice would become unstable as a result of the UZPR resistance and the ambush of defensive positions and their defeat in the city of Tarnochowice. It would eventually result in the arrival of thousands of Zedrutian troops to the frontlines of the war against the United Zedrutian People's Resistance.
In the early hours of the afternoon in 1974, ZCP rebel forces rolled down to the city of Kromząmske with tanks captured from the Zedrutian Armed Forces earlier and during those hours ZCP rebel forces seized government offices belonging to the ZCP and hours later the leader of the Zedrutian Communist Party would be overthrown by rebel forces. A curfew was instated in both cities and a new leadership was later on announced days after the coup d'etat.
As a result of the coup d'etat, the Zedrutian Armed Forces arrived in large quantities in coastal areas controlled by the United Zedrutian People's Resistance and they would eventually form a united front and along with the arrival they had deployed over 500 military aircraft to bombard military bases controlled by ZCP rebel forces. This would officially begin the Siege of Tarnochowice in 1974 after rebel forces were weakened by the bombardment.
==== Jeremiasz Przemo assumes power ====
==== Subsequent collapse of the revolutionary government ====
The collapse of ZCP rule began in the hours after the Zedrutian Armed Forces declared the capture of the city of Tarnochowice marking the end of the siege and claiming that the civil war should end closely as predicted, it resulted in the collapse of leadership and the partial collapse of the Zedrutian Communist Party which divided the frontlines into several factions, it also resulted in the Zedrutian Communist Party losing the city of Kromząmske which was their temporary capital at the time and forced the remaining rebel forces of the ZCP to withdraw to the mountainous areas west of the province of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice, it also marked the temporary end of the bloody civil conflict.
The collapse began as ZCP rebel troops arrived at the Kromząmske trainstation after their evacuation from the city of Tarnochowice during the siege using the railway which extended from Tarnochowice to the temporary capital city, however after their return they were immediately faced with fierce reactions to their complete humiliation and as a result of the fierce reactions many of the rebels which returned from Tarnochowice stormed the temporary headquarters of the ZCP and took over the communist party in a coup d'etat, this was immediately opposed by rebel forces fighting in the frontlines against the Zedrutian Armed Forces and many generals pleading allegiance to the ZCP broke away as region controlled warlords as opposition towards the ZCP, this led to a civil conflict within a civil conflict and generals began moving their troops to invade the city of Kromząmske in order to take power over the city, this however failed as the Zedrutian Armed Forces began advancing towards their provincial capitals and many forces were redirected to defend many rural towns from falling into the ZAF, eventually the Zedrutian Armed Forces set their sights on the Tarnochowice-Kromząmske railway and used it as a major railroad to roll into the city of Kromząmske.
As the city of Kromząmske fell into anarchy, the Zedrutian Armed Forces began rolling into the city of Kromząmske using trains and many districts fell under the ZAF, as news of the Zedrutian Armed Forces moving into the capital city of Kromząmske began to spread out, many of the generals began withdrawing from the northern frontlines and redirected many of their organized divisions to surround the capital city of Kromząmske, they were eventually ambushed as a operation was commenced by the ZAF in the northern frontlines of the civil war which captured chunks of occupied territories from ZCP warlords which controlled the region and several generals leading the civil war were killed in the process with the help of intelligence agencies.
In the aftermath, the Zedrutian Armed Forces began moving in more and more troops using the intact railway and weeks after the partial collapse of the ZCP the Zedrutian Armed Forces stormed the headquarters of the ZCP with tanks and in a broadcast marked the capture of the city of Kromząmske, claiming that the Tarnochowice Civil War has come to an end and as a result of the capture of Kromząmske, many ZCP related factions fled the surroundings within Kromząmske and fled to the countrysides and valleys in the provinces districts, after news spread out of the bloody civil conflict ending nationwide in Zedrutia, many thousands flocked to the cities to see troops returning from the frontlines of the civil war.
=== Zedrutia's temporary control over the region ===
In the aftermath of the bloody Tarnochowice Civil War, the destruction that was brought as a result of ZAF and ZCP operations were costly, over millions of dollars were estimated to be spent to rebuild the province and aid was given towards the needy people in the aftermath of the Tarnochowice Civil War, over a thousand people died due to the conflict and temporary martial law was declared.
The Zedrutian Communist Party had fled from the surrounding areas of large cities and fled to the countryside and valleys of certain areas in the province continuing to ambush several vehicles belonging to the ZAF and many attacks were reported by civillians in the countryside areas and the ZCP was assumed to be responsible for many of the attacks committed, In conclusion the state of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice remained unstable as anarchy was rampant and many services didn't exist as a result of the year long conflict which led to the further destruction and the reputation of the province as a peaceful province, many of the media would soon take notice of the aftermath and would describe it towards the global world as the Zedrutian version of Shingleton, earning the name Zedrutian Shingleton.
Thousands of survivors took refuge in many of the abandoned buildings and streets would often be deserted in the aftermath of the civil conflict, in southern Tarnochowice it was filled to the brink with homeless people which crossed the bridge into northern Tarnochowice to loot items from abandoned buildings including historical artifacts dating from the Ottoman and French colonial periods, the Zedrutian government responded with martial law in order to stabilize the region and guaranteed millions of dollars in funding with the rebuilding of Tarnochowice and food was given to many of the survivors, refugees from the city of Tarnochowice were also allowed to return back as part of Zedrutia's efforts to rebuild and repopulate the province.
In the city of Kromząmske, the city was roughly intact and many buildings remained standing including many services and in conclusion the city was slightly stable, however the city of Kromząmske did not eventually recover to its post-war population and stability as terrorists pleading allegiance to the Zedrutian Communist Party began reigning terror on the streets as the city faced constant car bombs which resulted in many of the city being empty despite the Zedrutian government deploying many of its troops to defend against possible threats, hundreds of people fled as a result of the danger of the city and many people surrounding the city fear going within the city. Many looters also appeared during this period and many businesses would permanently close down, leading to an increase in unemployment and the rise in crime.
==== Economic crash and 1976 riots ====
The Zedrutian Economic Crisis was an event that began in 1976 and lasted 12 years until it officially ended in 1988, it came as a result of the fuel crisis in the United States of Megaton and Columbia which plagued the global world including the Republic of Zedrutia, the Zedrutian Krolaw faced a sharp decline in value and many attempts by the Zedrutian government to revitalized the country with loans ended up in complete failure and paralyzed the prosperity and development within the country and contributed to Zedrutia being behind a few countries before regaining their position later on in the 2000s, gas prices rose up including food and necessities, with thousands of vehicles left abandoned on the streets as fuel was seen as a valuable commodity.
One of the most affected regions during the Zedrutian Economic Crisis was the State of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice which had recently came out from the 4 year long civil conflict within the region as the Zedrutian government began abandoning most of its efforts to repopulate and rebuild Tarnochowice and stabilize the province which had seen a slight increase in attacks carried out by the Zedrutian Communist Party, due to the economic crisis the currency in Zedrutia had lost its value and thousands of people continue to starve and the dire situation within Kromząmske and Tarnochowice continued to worsen.
Because of the economic crisis, the Zedrutian Armed Forces was battered in the process as most of its funding was cut down after a decision was made by the Zedrutian government and as a result the Zedrutian Armed Forces couldn't purchase weapons needed in its operations to stabilize the region and further contributed to the rise of ZCP-related violence in the countryside.
After a series of broken promises by the Zedrutian government to help rebuild and repopulate the province including a series of stability in the area the inhabitants of the cities of Tarnochowice and Kromząmske gathered to demonstrate against the Zedrutian government in reaction towards the promises the Zedrutian government failed to guarantee which would slowly descend into a massive violent riot and would contribute to the reemergence of the Zedrutian Communist Party from 1976 to 1979.
he 1976 riots began as civillians in Tarnochowice and Kromząmske formed a small demonstration as retaliation to the Zedrutian governments failed promise which would eventually result in the Zedrutian Armed Forces being deployed to quell the demonstrations within the cities to stop it from spreading. In the early process of containing the small demonstrations, the military commander had contacted the Zedrutian government in the capital city of Kiezyn claiming that these small demonstrations were deemed suspicious and began using firearms believing that the demonstrations were an attempt to make the region deem unstable in order for the Zedrutian Communist Party to ambush the Zedrutian Armed Forces, the confusion caused forced the Zedrutian government to order the command to shoot down protestors with live ammunition to disperse the crowds and in the midst of the process of containing the demonstrations, military forces began shooting towards the crowds in Tarnochowice and resulted in dozens of people killed and injured.
In the aftermath of the violence the incident sparked major protests throughout the province demanding the immediate withdrawal of all military presence from the island and news of the incident began spreading nationwide resulting in major demonstrations against the Zedrutian government in the capital city of Kiezyn which crippled the military's advantage to contain the situation and to add to the trouble the Commonwealth of United and Free Nations began its involvement within the chaos and took advantage by ordering sanctions on Zedrutian officials and ordering a naval blockade of trade goods entering and exiting from the country.
Eventually after a few days of anarchy throughout the island and violent clashes between Zedrutian protesters and police the Zedrutian government responded to the demands and ordered a full immediate withdrawal of military presence in the state of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice and would be expected to end in 10 days and afterwards all military personnel responsible for defending against rebel forces of the Zedrutian Communist Party fled, the evacuation of all military personnel led to a high increase in organized crime and anarchy reigned terror in cities and streets across the province, many opposition groups pleaded with the Zedrutian government to resend the Zedrutian Armed Forces to stabilize the region but it was officially too late as the evacuation marked the beginning of the reemergence of the Zedrutian Communist Party.
==== Withdrawal of ZAF personnel from the region ====
==== Reemergence of the Zedrutian National Liberation Army and renewed ZNLA-ZPR offensive ====
The reemergence of the remnants of the Zedrutian Communist Party began weeks after all personnel from the Zedrutian Armed Forces evacuated from Kromząmske and Tarnochowice as a result of the Zedrutian government responding to the 1976 riots. It resulted in the Zedrutian Communist Party reemerging again and taking over and occupying the entire province for the second time in 1979 and during this reemergence they would last a longer period and would establish a rump unrecognized state known as Kromząmske and Tarnochowice People's Republic.
The reemergence began after ZCP rebels had heard the statement by the Zedrutian government which was broadcasted nationwide including the province of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice and a offensive was commenced in order to retake the entire province from Zedrutia and reoccupy the region. Many areas quickly fell to rebels of the Zedrutian Communist Party and locals and civillians living within the larger cities began to panic as terrorist attacks would frequently occur. Because of the complete withdrawal of the Zedrutian Armed Forces from the region many civillians were forced to fend off against the rebels and defend many of the larger cities, however they were outnumbered and by the time they had been fully armed most of the province fell under occupation by the Zedrutian Communist Party.
After several weeks of civillian resistance, ZCP rebels arrived at the gates of Tarnochowice, as the city was completely destroyed years prior the ZCP easily captured the city and secured it under their rule leaving Kromząmske to be the last civillian held stronghold in the province, after severe clashes between civillian forces and ZCP rebels, the civillian resistance was weakened by ambushes and outnumbered and in late 1978 civillian resistance forces dropped their weapons and were forced to sign an agreement with the ZCP marking the end of the reemergence of the Zedrutian Communist Party.

==== Collapse of Zedrutia's control over the region ====
=== The Zedrutian People's Republic (1979 - 1986) ===
The Kromząmske and Tarnochowice People's Republic, also known as the KTPR or the Zedrutian People's Republic, is a isolated rump socialist state which lasted from its formation in 1979 until its eventual dissolution during Operation Kromząmske in 1987. It came to be known as an authoritarian and genocidal regime which purged political opponents and purposely created famines which resulted in dozens starving in the countryside. It was unstable and warlords would frequently overthrow the government to protect their interests.
The Kromząmske and Tarnochowice People's Republic was formed in 1979 months after the ZCP destroyed the United Zedrutian People's Front and secured their power over the region, the general responsible for destroying the main command center of the UZPR resistance in the northeastern regions was appointed as the leader of the Zedrutian Communist Party and the chairman of the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice People's Republic. During his early years in power, the rump state had seen mass deportations of residents from the city of Tarnochowice into labor camps and the chairman had enacted laws which banned the Zedrutian Krolaw which was the main currency of Zedrutia and the province at the time during the occupation and banned the economy and also purged many of his political opponents in the Zedrutian Communist Party.
However, during a conference at the headquarters of the Zedrutian Communist Party in the city of Kromząmske, the chairman was killed including all political officials in a bomb attack set up by his generals who had been secretly opposing against his plans and a temporary administration was set up by his vice president. The following days after he was overthrown from power by troops belonging to the generals and the following day a new military dictatorship was set up which progressively made the situation in Kromząmske and Tarnochowice worse. As the regime reached into the 80s the Zedrutian Communist Party was able to make ties with the People's Republic of Crimsonia and as a result the Eastern Bloc immediately imposed sanctions on the rump state as opposition to their ties. As the sanctions resulted in instability within the ranks the leadership was immediately overthrown again.
During the new leadership in 1984 the regime had progressively weakened as communist warlords began a mutiny against the continuous shifting of new leaderships, as a response to the mutiny and the instability that has weakened the already rump state, the chairman of the regime blamed it on supposed traitors and in mid 1984 he had enacted a purge called the Terror Purge.
==== Reemergence of the United Zedrutian People's Resistance and its subsequent destruction ====
The reemergence United Zedrutian People's Resistance began weeks after the fall of the last Zedrutian stronghold of the city of Kromząmske as former veterans of the Tarnochowice Civil War again flocked to the northeast coast of the province to form a new resistance front against the Zedrutian Communist Party which had recently reemerged after the 1976 riots. The leader of the rebel group announced the reemergence of the United Zedrutian People's Resistance which had previously been disarmed and ended in the aftermath of the Tarnochowice Civil War.
After a few weeks, the United Zedrutian People's Front had been effective and half of the northeastern coasts of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice had been captured under the UZPR and it was funded and supported by none other than the Zedrutian government, despite half of the northeastern regions being captured by the newly formed United Zedrutian People's Front the resistance leader demanded the Zedrutian government to deploy the Zedrutian Armed Forces again, however his request was largely denied and the following day the Zedrutian Communist Party began deploying and strengthening their divisions surrounding the northeast region of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice planning a final operation before forming the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice People's Republic in mid 1979.
As the United Zedrutian People's Front clashed against the Zedrutian Communist Party, the resistance stretched to the year of 1979 and ZCP rebel forces began their operations to bombard the northeast regions, resulting in over a hundred civillians dead. However due to lack of support and ammunition for nearly months, the United Zedrutian People's Front has been greatly weakened, despite the resistance leader being aware of the resistance being weakened he refused to call for help from the Zedrutian government and hid underground. An operation was launched weeks later and in the process the Zedrutian Communist Party had captured the main command center of the United Zedrutian People's Front, partially marking the end of the resistance.
As a result of the fall of the main command center, the resistance leader along with many of his troops fled the northeastern regions and divisions within the United Zedrutian People's Front split and fled and scattered throughout the province of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice until the beginning of Operation Kromząmske. Later on the Zedrutian Communist Party praised many of its troops which were responsible for destroying the last resistance stronghold and the following day would proclaim the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice People's Republic.

==== The Terror Purge of 1984 ====
The Terror Purge was an event which occured in 1984 which involved the massacre of all prisoners within the labor camps and thousands of civillians in larger cities except for Tarnochowice. The purge resulted in over an estimated hundreds of thousands dead and hundreds fleeing Kromząmske and Tarnochowice into mainland Zedrutia. As news of the purge had been spread worldwide, despite many Zedrutia pushing for an intervention in the province, the Commonwealth of United and Free Nations didn't respond as to not violate an agreement made by the Eastern Bloc.
The Terror Purge officially began when all prisoners in a labor camp miles away from the city of Kromząmske were shot dead with no survivors left and the following days residents from the districts in east Kromząmske were forcefully evicted from their homes ordered by the administration within the Zedrutian Communist Party and were all rounded up which left hundreds of people dead and injured in the process of the shootout. The Zedrutian Communist Party attempted to erase all coverage of the massacre that occured in Kromząmske but had failed as a infiltrating member from the United Zedrutian People's Front had stolen all of the information and returned to mainland Zedrutia to pass it to the government in the capital city of Kiezyn. Attempts were made by the Zedrutian government to convince the administration of the Zedrutian Communist Party to immediately halt the purge in exchange for the release of prisoners of war and would send requests and demands to the Commonwealth of United and Free Nations to intervene in stopping the purge, however the Zedrutian governments request was largely ignored as the Commonwealth of United and Free Nations had signed an agreement together with the Eastern Bloc to not intervene in any conflicts on both sides otherwise the Eastern Bloc would launch all of its nuclear warheads on the west.
As a result of the failed attempts it had been too late as the purge enacted by the new administration in Kromząmske had gone far and killed hundreds of thousands of people in the process and hundreds of people fleeing the island into mainland Zedrutia to apply for asylum within the country. Weeks have followed and the administration had proclaimed the end of the Terror Purge claiming that the island has now been officially secured. The Terror Purge had also partially damaged the remnants of the United Zedrutian People's Front which rendered their activities being reduced to hidden outposts in the countryside.
In aftermath of Terror purge, some underground resistances were established in cities, The main one was UZPR that was created before terror purge, most of civilians were poorly equipped as they had only civilian rifles, homemade armory. The Conflict began in March 1984 when villages were raided and some of them looted for equipment, Week later a uprising eccoured in city of Świętochzyn that was smaller than kromząnske, and had around 46 934 People. Resistance movements attempted to raid military checkpoints and outposts, a day later 32% of Świętochzyn Territory has been captured.
The ZCP responded by sending armored vehicles and troops to attempt to make the areas stable, however the civilians were armed and clashes occoured, Crimsonian APCs ( A ZCP APC that has been donated by Crimsonia ) and armored trucks began cracking down on streets, resistance movements attempted to use Molotovs, grenades and improvised rocket launchers, A heavy battle began in Świętochzyn Airport The insurgency continouted till 1986 when the Operation Kromzanske began and the resistance movements began full uprisings.

==== Infighting between the ZNLA and the ZPR ====
==== Labor camps ====
==== The Zedrutian government once again focuses attention towards Aleksandar Jeremiasz ====
==== The preparation of the Zedrutian offensive and additional help ====
In the aftermath of the Terror Purge which occured in 1984, the year of 1985 has passed and during the year Zedrutia has slowly recovered from its decades long economic crisis which had rendered most of its military useless as the Zedrutian government had barely enough budget to maintain and develop their armies. The Zedrutian Krolaw had also slightly recovered from its inflation and Zedrutia has estimated that it would likely fully recover by the end of the 1990s. As the Zedrutian economy had improved largely the Zedrutian military had took advantage of the near ending economic crisis and plan to invade the occupied province of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice and crush the Zedrutian Communist Party permanently.
Plans by the Zedrutian military for an operation to invade Kromząmske and Tarnochowice officially began in late 1985 and it would mainly focus on acquiring the city of Kromząmske which was the main capital and command center for the Zedrutian Communist Party. The plans for the operation was that over 6 divisions from the Zedrutian military land in the coastal areas of Kromząmske and then seize and secure districts of the city and attempt to push out the administration away from the city and then set up a military base holdout to allow the flow of Zedrutian troops into the province.
Eventually, because of secret Zedrutian documents being vulnerable to being stolen and leaked to public information, the planning for the operation to invade the city of Kromząmske was leaked causing major reactions by the public opinion demanding the cancellation of the operation. Eventually the documents were also leaked and sent to the headquarters of the Zedrutian Communist Party in Kromząmske, as a result ZCP rebel forces were immediately deployed from all parts of the countryside to Kromząmske which led to an increase in attacks in which the United Zedrutian People's Front was responsible for.
==== Operation Kromząmske (1986) ====
Operation Kromząmske was an offensive carried out by the Zedrutian Armed Forces in 1986 in an attempt to capture the city of Kromząmske which was the main command center for the Zedrutian Communist Party. It resulted in the near destruction of the Zedrutian Communist Party and the capture and execution of its military leader after a trial was held which forced many of its remaining rebel forces to scatter across the countryside as remnants again and would continue to carry out small attacks till the year 2007. In the aftermath of Operation Kromząmske many setbacks include a series of attacks carried out by members having links with the Zedrutian Communist Party.
Prior to Operation Kromząmske the year of 1986 has arrived. During this year the Republic of Zedrutia entered an nationwide event for the first time in decades called the Second Golden Age despite the ongoing Zedrutian economic crisis until 1988. By that time the Zedrutian Armed Forces began receiving proper funding by the Zedrutian government and doubled it in support for the efforts in Operation Kromząmske, however there were many setbacks regarding Operation Kromząmske which was the treaty signed by the Commonwealth of United and Free Nations with the Eastern Bloc proclaiming that all communist countries should not be invaded or interfered or else nuclear war would occur. However as the year of 1986 arrived the Eastern Bloc had been gradually weakened and despite guarantees for protection the People's Republic of Crimsonia had completely forgot about it and sent many of its navy to the Bistonian Sea as a result of rising tensions with the Republic of Bistonia. It would eventually result in the Zedrutian government taking advantage of the tension by sending many of its battleships to surround the province in preparation for Operation Kromząmske.
As for the other side, the rebel forces of the Zedrutian Communist Party, the awareness for a potential operation and threat by the Zedrutian Armed Forces had completely faded away as generals had highly doubt the possibility of an invasion by the Zedrutian Armed Forces as Crimsonia including the Eastern Bloc had offered protection from any possible invasion from Zedrutia, another reason to add to it was the Zedrutian economic crisis which had paralyzed the development of the army for decades and would fail, the reason they were not immediately alerted was the fact that the Zedrutian Communist Party had blocked all information coming into the rump state and enacted an isolationist policy in which many of the generals were not possible to access through. The generals had also directed many of the rebel divisions intended to defend Kromząmske into the countryside of the island to defend many of its farmers and crops from potential attacks carried out by remnants of the United Zedrutian People's Front which had fled into the mountains for survival.
Operation Kromząmske was officially commenced and in mid 1986 Zedrutia sent many of its battleships to slowly cross into Kromząmske, immediately after the sightings of several battleships along the coast by fishermen the Zedrutian Communist Party administration was alerted afterwards and 3 divisions were immediately sent in to defend the coastal areas near Kromząmske and expect many of the battleships to scatter after few rounds of fighting. Eventually after 5 hours Zedrutian troops were transported to the coasts a mile away from the city of Kromząmske. A fierce battle ensued which resulted in rebel forces retreating to form an organized frontline including defense they had placed in the entryways of the city. An air raid had also occured in Kromząmske in an attempt to disperse many of the soldiers stationed in the city at the time resulting in hundreds dead. Many officials from the Zedrutian Communist Party were also ordered to hide within the bunkers of the headquarters.
Hours after the air raid in Kromząmske Zedrutian tanks were transported to the frontlines of Operation Kromząmske and destroyed many defenses set up by rebel forces and they would be immediately ordered to retreat allowing the Zedrutian Armed Forces moving into the city of Kromząmske. A huge mistake was also made as rebel forces did not manage to destroy many of the roads leading into the city to slow down the advancing armies heading into the city. It led to a panic in the city as anarchy raged throughout the cities and buildings burned to the ground. Eventually rebel forces were immediately sent to areas in Kromząmske to disperse the crowd. The Zedrutian Armed Forces had also captured the eastern areas of Kromząmske where they would encounter the horrors of the massacre from the Great Terror as rotten corpses scatter throughout many of its abandoned buildings. Another air raid occured and the defenses responsible to protect the city were destroyed in the process which also left hundreds more dead including unarmed civillians.
During Operation Kromząmske, half of the city was completely destroyed during the process and thousands of civillians would die as a result of series of bombardments carried out with artillery by the Zedrutian Armed Forces. Days had passed since the beginning of the operation and the Zedrutian Armed Forces continued to destroy defenses using tanks which left southern Kromząmske vulnerable to capture. The Zedrutian Armed Forces managed to capture and secure the southern part of the city and left the western and northern areas of Kromząmske under rebel control. Sometime afterwards Zedrutian troops advancing through the city center flanked and surrounded many rebel divisions in the city center which contained the headquarters of the Zedrutian Communist Party and a fierce battle ensued which resulted in thousands of soldiers dead. The Zedrutian Armed Forces eventually weakened many of the rebel divisions remaining in the city center using many of its tanks and days later Zedrutian troops and tanks moved into the entrance of the Zedrutian Communist Party headquarters. After fierce resistance the Zedrutian Armed Forces secured its control over the headquarters and in the following day the news of the capture was broadcasted nationwide.
After the capture, rebel forces were forced to locate the bunker hiding underground in the headquarters of the Zedrutian Communist Party where the leader was assumed to be hiding when the city of Kromząmske began facing bombardments. Eventually the bunker was discovered and the leader of the Zedrutian Communist Party was immediately forced to surrender and he would be captured by the Zedrutian Armed Forces. He would be sent to the ports of Kromząmske where he would temporarily stay away from the frontlines of Kromząmske, he was then placed on a ship along with other captured officials and refugees heading to New Gdansk where he would be detained and sent to the city of Kiezyn by the order of the Zedrutian government.
After the capture of southern Kromząmske and the headquarters of the Zedrutian Communist Party in Kromząmske, casualties continued to mount and take its toll on the rebel forces at a high rate, realizing that the war efforts to push out the Zedrutian Armed Forces failed, the last remaining generals remaining outside of the capital city ordered a full retreat from both areas of west and northern Kromząmske and a day after the Zedrutian Armed Forces pushed out the last rebel forces from Kromząmske, marking the end of Operation Kromząmske and a new era for the Zedrutian Communist Party, as rebel forces immediately split and scatter throughout the countrysides. The rest of the territories controlled by the Zedrutian Communist Party eventually collapsed and several regions came under the rule of the United Zedrutian People's Front. After a brief meeting with the Zedrutian Armed Forces, the United Zedrutian People's Front accepted the handover of the rest of the territories captured as the Zedrutian Communist Party slowly disintegrates into the countryside.
In the aftermath of Operation Kromząmske, a military administration was set up in Kromząmske in 1986 to stabilize the province so it could be reincorporated and annexed as a autonomous province into the Republic of Zedrutia, with the Zedrutian government promising better rations and better guarantees compared to what was guaranteed decades prior.
==== Capture of Aleksandar Jeremiasz and coup d'etat by the ZPR ====
==== Collapse of the Zedrutian People's Republic and the formation of the United Resistance Front ====
=== Zedrutian Military Administration of the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice Region (1986 - 1988) ===
The Kromząmske Military Administration, also known as the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice Military Administration later on in the years is a military administration established with the help of the Zedrutian Government in the aftermath of Operation Kromząmske in 1986 as part of Zedrutia's plans to reincorporate the province into the Republic of Zedrutia, the military administration was slightly corrupt and would often continue to clash with remnants of the Zedrutian Communist Party in the countryside eastern regions of the province.
Because of the recent capture of Kromząmske, the military administration announced martial law including curfews in an attempt to stabilize the city including the rest of the provinces and many organizations were allowed entry into the cities in order to provide aid for residents in the city in the aftermath of the city being captured. However an epidemic occured during the military administration as a result of people who had trespassed into abandoned buildings causing a lockdown and the flow of help from organizations to stop. The epidemic was immediately stopped weeks later and the military administration advised many of its residents with caution to stay in designated safe areas and avoid districts which were previously abandoned before and after the siege of the city.
The Zedrutian Armed Forces also carried out purges in many of these safe areas as convoys of Zedrutian troops would often arrive to the safe areas and would scatter and look for anybody affiliated with the Zedrutian Communist Party, most of the people captured were unarmed and not affiliated and they would be rounded up and shot in the streets and their corpses would be left to rot. However as the military administration imposed strict laws to prevent epidemics most of these bodies were collected as laborers were assigned to collect them. Most of them ended up in mass graves across the city or in many areas where the military administration considered dangerous. This was largely covered as at the time the Cold War was still ongoing.
As the year reached 1987, in the aftermath of the bombardment of Tarnochowice after remnants of rebel forces attempt to recapture the completely destroyed city, the leader of the Zedrutian Communist Party was eventually put into a trial in the capital city of Kiezyn. After a brief trial he was considered guilty of war crimes that had occured under his reign which included the Terror Purge and the deportation of civillians from cities and was sentenced to death weeks later. He was immediately sent to a prison in the city of Starobrzyn where he was hanged in public. After his death the Zedrutian Communist Party sent regards to his family in New Gdansk where they were serving their sentence. Immediately the broadcast was tracked down to the new headquarters of the Zedrutian Communist Party in the countryside and an operation was commenced which captured its potential leader and completely destroyed the headquarters. This marked the further disintegration of the Zedrutian Communist Party.
As 1988 had arrived, the Kromząmske Military Administration was renamed into the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice Military Administration after Zedrutian troops were deployed to the northern areas of the province and secured the ruins of Tarnochowice with little to no resistance and in 1988 the Zedrutian government ordered the release of all prisoners in camps belonging to the Zedrutian Communist Party and the shutdown of all farming areas including the guarantee of returning land to its original owners and in mid 1988 the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice Military Administration was dissolved which officially ended the transitional period and incorporated the province into the Republic of Zedrutia, as part of correcting their mistakes in the past, the Zedrutian government gave the province of Kromząmske and Tarnochowice autonomy the following day.
==== Capture of the city of Tarnochowice ====
==== Bombardment of Tarnochowice and clashes ====
The Bombing of Tarnochowice was an event which occurred in 1987 in which the Zedrutian Airforce bombarded the ruins of the city of Tarnochowice to disperse remnants still currently conducting activities in the area to achieve revenge after the execution of the Zedrutian Communist Party's leader in city of Starobrzyn and to finally secure the city. Over 12 civillians were killed and over 15 rebels were killed as a result of the bombardments and deaths were minimal as the city was nearly deserted at the time.
It began as people who were assigned to inspect the city by the Zedrutian government stumbled upon and spotted dozens of rebels walking across the ruins of the city at night and after Zedrutian troops were immediately alerted by rebel activities the city was put under lockdown and many civillians who returned to the city were forced to evacuate again. The bombardment officially began hours later and many buildings left standing were completely destroyed and leveled including potential areas where rebels were currently holding. However a dozen civillians continued to stay within the city and ignored orders by the Zedrutian Armed Forces which resulted in over 12 civillians dead and over 6 injured from the blasts. Over 4 rebels were spotted running across the streets and they would immediately be spotted and shot by Zedrutian troops and the rest of the rebels died.
In the aftermath, over a total 50 buildings which remained intact in the city of Tarnochowice were completely destroyed in the aftermath of bombardments carried out by the Zedrutian Airforce and only 3 buildings were left not completely destroyed by the blast. Due to the bombardment the remnants of the rebel divisions were immediately ordered to withdraw completely from the city under radar and only a handful of 6 rebels were captured after being spotted by civillians and 4 were shot without any reason. The Zedrutian Communist Party by that point had now completely withdrew all of their remnant activities into the countryside and would continue to operate underground until the year of 2007.
==== Zedrutia reestablishes control over Kromząmske and Tarnochowice ====
=== Zedrutian control (1988 - present) ===
==== Further decline of the ZNLA-ZPR rebels ====
==== Second reemergence of the Zedrutian National Liberation Army and the Zedrutian People's Resistance ====
The Tarnochowice Clash was a battle between the remnants of the ZCP against the Zedrutian Armed Forces in an attempt to regain control and territory over the city of Tarnochowice in the year of 1988. Over a hundred of remnant forces were killed as a result of the clashes and over 12 Zedrutian troops were killed as a result of the Tarnochowice Clash. It resulted in Zedrutian victory and in the aftermath of the clash the city was finally secured under government rule. It was one of the main factors which sparked the Second Reemergence of the Zedrutian Communist Party.
Weeks prior to the Tarnochowice Clash, Zedrutian troops spotted ZCP remnants carrying out activities in the mountains west of Tarnochowice during the governments efforts to send many deported civillians to the city as soon as possible. It was immediately reported to the government but the government had largely ignored the presence of the rebels in the mountains west of the city, claiming it as no possible threat. The government also covered up the sightings and reports over the days. A week later the Tarnochowice Clash was commenced.
In the first wave, rebels came down the mountain and stretched out to capture many districts at midnight, killing unarmed civillians in the process. Zedrutian forces were deployed and fierce fighting occurred in the western districts of the city. The government was then in a state of panic as the rebels began stretching to take over some of the districts. Hours had passed as the rebels attempting to defend their frontlines had failed. They were then forced to withdraw as rebel death counts began to take on its toll. The Zedrutian Armed Forces eventually declared victory hours later and the western districts were put under heavy surveillance. Rebels were rounded up and shot in the streets and their corpses would be dragged in many of the ruins.
The second wave was then commenced but this time it was only 40 of its troops in midnight again, the Zedrutian Armed Forces were forced to their defensive positions as rebel forces began moving into the districts unnoticed. Gunfire erupted throughout the western parts of the city which forced many of the rebels to retreat after the majority of their forces began to dwindle. In the end, the second wave was then put down by government forces and it resulted in a decisive victory by Zedrutia.
Weeks after, the third wave was commenced, this time it had gone progressively worse and it would be the final round. Over 80 rebel forces were sent down the mountains and a fierce battle ensued between Zedrutian government forces and artillery destroyed many of the rebels defensive positions. The majority of them were killed and eventually rebel forces were forced to retreat in the night. The Zedrutian government had enough of many of the series of raids carried out by rebel forces and days after the third wave rebel outposts in the mountains were bombarded by artillery and air raids, and hours later Zedrutian troops moved into the mountains to secure the rebel outposts, by the time they had arrived many of the remnants had fled.
In the aftermath of the Tarnochowice Clash, over a hundred of rebel forces were killed and over 12 Zedrutian troops were killed as a result of the raids that occurred. It also became one of the main contributing factors to the second reemergence of the Zedrutian Communist Party.
The Second Reemergence of the Zedrutian Communist Party began in the year of 1989 when the new leadership took over one of the last remaining rebel factions belonging to the Zedrutian Communist Party and enacted a series of attacks across Zedrutian farmers in the countryside including bomb attacks in the city of Tarnochowice when it was undergoing rebuilding efforts at the time. By this point they had no advantage in taking over or seizing territory as it had lack of support at the time due to the collapse of the Eastern Bloc and the near defeat of the People's Republic of Crimsonia in the Crimsonian-Bistonian War.
In 1989, attacks were carried out against Zedrutian farmers in the countryside in the middle of the night and were reported to the Zedrutian government in Kiezyn. An investigation was carried out and the perpetrators of the attacks carried out were rebel remnants from the Zedrutian Communist Party. The Zedrutian government went under panic and troops were deployed to quell the attacks carried out against farmers. It was proven effective and rebel forces resorted to many other ways in attacking Zedrutia. Days later the first bomb attack occured in Kromząmske, forcing the city into lockdown.
The Zedrutian Communist Party would be also accused of its involvement in the New Shingleton Incident, however investigations into the case later on would show that the Zedrutian Communist Party was not responsible nor was it involved in the incident that occured in 1989, and that the People's Republic of Crimsonia was the perpetrator.
==== Deployment of the Zedrutian National Guard and Military Police ====
In 1989, days after the New Shingleton Incident and the collapse of the St. Ark Federation military government, the Zedrutian government deployed the Zedrutian Military Police to the city of Tarnochowice and its surrounding areas in an attempt to prevent similar cases such as the incident which occurred days prior. Although demands were made by residents in Kromząmske to also deploy the military police in their city aswell, the Zedrutian government had largely ignored and put down their demands.
Throughout the years from 1989 to 1994, the Zedrutian Military Police began facing intense scrutiny by the public and the Zedrutian Armed Forces as cases of alleged corruption, rape and looting began rising and spreading across the city of Tarnochowice, which posed a threat to the Zedrutian governments attempt to resettle and rebuild the city after it was battered by constant civil war and raids by rebel forces at the time. In the year of 1994 after the end of the martial law imposed due to the sudden reemergence of the remnants, the Zedrutian Military Police withdrew from Tarnochowice along with military personnel.
==== Destruction of remnants belonging to the Zedrutian National Liberation Army and the Zedrutian People's Resistance ====
The Destruction of the Zedrutian Communist Party came as a result of the capture of the capital city of Kromząmske including its headquarters which was vital to their structure including the capture of their leader, who would eventually be captured in the headquarters of the Zedrutian Communist Party in Kromząmske and executed in the city of Starobrzyn. However despite their destruction it was only partially and the Zedrutian Communist Party continued to operate within the countryside.
After their heavy defeat at the hands of the Zedrutian Armed Forces in 1986, the last remaining generals began to fight over control in the last remaining territories and with the sudden reemergence of the United Zedrutian People's Front losses on both sides took a huge toll on the rebel army groups. Infighting occured and many of the generals split from eachother including the last remaining occupied territories and formed factions different from one another with their agenda being to reestablish the Kromząmske and Tarnochowice People's Republic. However the damage was already done and by the time many of these factions began to stabilize the Zedrutian Armed Forces had captured over a chunk of their territory. They would eventually be forced to hide within the countryside mountains where rebel bases and outposts would be constructed using laborers which managed to be captured by the rebels. The headquarters of the Zedrutian Communist Party would also be temporarily set up in the area.
As the year reached 1987, the remnants of the Zedrutian Communist Party began to slowly recover from its destruction but however things would eventually take a turn for the worse as the leader of the Zedrutian Communist Party was held in a trial and he was held guilty for war crimes which sentenced him to death in the city of Starobryzn, he would be hanged afterwards and the Zedrutian Communist Party eventually reemerged to hold a statement mourning the death of the leader and sending regards to his family which were also serving their sentence in prison in mainland Zedrutia. Afterwards many rebels abandoned their faiths and agenda including many generals and many factions surrendered and collapsed. Many of these rebels would soon be detained and sent to the mainland to serve a life sentence in prison without any possibility for parole. Eventually the activities of the Zedrutian Communist Party began fading away and their activities would freeze until their sudden reemergence.
In the year of 1992, remnant forces were spotted patrolling and scattering across a constructed mountain base located in the countryside area by locals, and days later a force with the task of capturing remnant forces including the remaining rebel leaders was deployed to the mountain base. They began their operations at midnight to avoid being caught in the middle of the day. Fires were then shot towards the wooden base which killed some of the rebels and its personnel in the process, eventually gunfire ensued for over 30 minutes until a fire was purposely set ablaze by the force.
The commander was captured after he attempted to escape the gunfire and the base that was purposely set ablaze and broke his leg in the process, he was tied and placed in a Zedrutian convoy. The leader was second to be captured as he also attempted to escape the gunfire to save himself, he was then shot in the leg and he was then detained and placed in the Zedrutian convoy where his commander was also placed. The leader of the remnants and the commander himself was then identified and he would soon be shown in court during a trial, mainly for his actions in the Tarnochowice Clash and many other incidents that he purposely commenced.
Then, the following day after the capture of the leader of the remnant forces, the remnants were then forced to surrender and disarm themselves after their devastation, after the news of their surrender spread nationwide, reactions by the public opinion were mixed and the Zedrutian government had announced their victory. The Zedrutian Communist Party was then officially banned by the Zedrutian government and it was dismantled in the aftermath. It also marked the possible ending for the decades long civil conflict which erupted.
=== End of the civil war ===
In 1992 after the Zedrutian Communist Party was disarmed and dismantled marking the end of the decades long civil conflict, a memorial was constructed to commemorate the ending of the civil conflict in the city of Tarnochowice, however despite the unrest being put down by the Zedrutian government, martial law was still imposed on the province for 2 years. In the year of 1994, the Zedrutian government lifted the martial law imposed as the province began recovering from the conflict. However peace in Zedrutia was then put to an abrupt end as the year of 2007 arrived.
== Aftermath ==
In the year of 2007, the final destruction of the Zedrutian Communist Party had marked the end of the conflict which occurred in Kromząmske and Tarnochowice, however martial law continued in the state including the mainland until the year of 2008. As for the Zedrutian Communist Party, many of its members aged 18 to 25 were sentenced to jail for their involvement, in 2019 10 members were released from prison due to good behavior.
