Argentine Republic/Events

*In a classic rerun of Argentine history, highways and roads shut down, helicopters and fighter jets took to the air, and the streets of Buenos Aires rang with gunfire. Yet another military coup d'état seems to have shaken Argentina, with General Isaac Rojas declaring his intention to seize power to protect democracy and security from Eduardo Lonardi. Opposition soldiers have flooded the streets; declaring martial law, establishing a curfew, and raiding governmental buildings and radio stations.*

*However, through the chaos, it seems that the coup d'état has failed. Patriotic League supporters took to the streets in protest of the attempt, while security forces managed to reclaim the Casa Rosada. Thousands were detained and arrested, though it seems that the perpetrator generals will remain unpunished, as per usual of Argentine coups.*

*The failed coup does not, however, mean Lonardi's opposition has ceased; it has only highlighted his now-crippling unpopularity among the Patriotic League, and many expect the party itself to challenge his leadership.*

## Path 2

### Coup d'état in Argentina!

Triggered by the 1963 coup failing.

*In a classic rerun of Argentine history, highways and roads shut down, helicopters and fighter jets took to the air, and the streets of Buenos Aires rang with gunfire. Yet another military coup d'état seems to have shaken Argentina, with General Isaac Rojas declaring his intention to seize power to protect democracy and security from Eduardo Lonardi. Opposition soldiers have flooded the streets; declaring martial law, establishing a curfew, and raiding governmental buildings and radio stations.*

*isaac Rojas seems to have succeeded, being inaugurated as President and forming a military junta. However, even through the chaos, it seems this is not the end of totalitarianism in Argentina. Though against the League's absolute control, Isaac bears no love of democracy, and aims to work with the Patriotic League rather than purging them.*

*His junta's unity has also been called into question, as his conciliatory stance towards the League bears opposition dividing the junta into two groups; the azules, supporting Rojas, and the colorados, who form a more hardline anti-League stance. However the situation progresses, it's safe to say Argentina hangs in a thin balance.*

	+ ***A first step towards peace?***

	+ ***¡Viva Rojas!***

## Third Argentine Civil War

### Smoke on the Rio de la Plata

Triggered by either the march on Buenos Aires (1A) or the Patriotic League counter-coup (2C).

*The Argentine powder keg, though unknown to most, has finally lit and combusted today, as factions across Argentina react to the current chaos in Buenos Aires. The Patriotic League has split into its two rival integralist and tacuarist factions competing for power, finally breaking out into an armed struggle. In response, however, the anti-League factions of the military have taken their opportunity to muster the same force they had in 1963, capturing the mouth of the Rio de la Plata and vowing to restore order a second time.*

*Perhaps the most shocking development, however, is the outbreak of the Argentine resistance. Tired of decades of dictatorship, the Left resistance under Ernesto Guevara, along with remnants has allied with anti-military Radicals, natives, and youth democracy activists in a united front. Alluding to the Patagonia Rebelde of the 1920's and 1930's, they have restored the moniker of the Patagonians as a symbol of revolution and liberation, proclaiming Neopatagonismo.*

*As factions make their first moves in consolidating power, it seems yet another brutal civil war will decimate Argentina; perhaps for the last time. Whatever happens, it may leave a mark on South American history deeper than any other conflict.*
