Chernarussian Civil War

The Chernarussian Civil War was civil conflict that lasted less than a year in the former Soviet Republic of Chernarus. With the impending break-up of the Soviet Union coming, the Chernarussian SSR was able to become independent from the Soviet Union, with it being the second Soviet Republic to become independent from the USSR on October 30th 1990. Immediately after independence, tensions between the Chernarussian people and the ethnic Russian, Kazakh and Tatar settlers arose and large scale attack's on Chernarussian and Russian people started popping up around the country, mainly in the Chernyyrus Oblast.

Ethnic tensions reach a tipping point with the rise of  National Party and Pro-Russian militia's in the north, on November 7th 1991 Chernarus gained full independence from the Country planned to hold it's first election on December 3rd 1991, but the election was disrupted National Party lead by Casimir Polakoff, with only 53.7% of the population being able to vote thanks to the legality of early voting. Multiply coup popped up across the country, mainly in the west end.

There was fierce fight in the country for the first month, with the heaviest fighting in capital Novigrad. While there was fighting in the west end of the country, Soviet Loyalists staged a rebellion in the northern end of the country on December 7th with the Soviet Rebels taking over the city of Burnaya in the North Zagonia Oblast. The Soviet Rebels known as the PCCP (People Chernarussian Communist Party) fought over the city of Burnaya from the Chernarussian Defense Force (CDF) many times with the PCCP taking over the city of Burnaya in the Third Battle of Burnaya on March 9th 1992.

In April of 1992 the National Party and it's supporting Militia's had taken a heavy tole from the Chernarussian Army, PCCP, and Taki Pirates crossing the border into the Pesekuda Oblast in the south west end of the country, by the end of May of 1992 the Zelenabazina Front was on the verge of collapse and the Nationalist Militia's in the City of Novigard where losing the battle.

## Background

The war in Chernarus came as a result of the impending breakup of the Soviet Union. After Lithuania was able to break away from the Soviet Union, the people of Chernarus wanted to follow suit and on June 16th 1990 called for it's independence. The independence referendum called for the whole of the Chernarus SSR to become independent from the USSR, but due to the ethnic population of Russian settlers in the north of the country (mainly in Chernyyrus, and North and South Zagonia) not wanting to separate from the majority ethnically Russian SFSR, but with the majority of the population in Chernarus being Chernarussian it's was unlikely that ethnic Russian settlers would be able to stay in Chernarus and the Russian SFSR (Later to become the Russian Federation) and on October 29th 1990 the Chernarussian people voted 64.4% to 35.6% for Chernarussian Independence and a day later the Chernarussian SSR declared Independence from the Soviet Union.

Weeks before independence a Pro-Russian Chernophobic political party that wants to have the Russian minority population of Chernarus control over Chernarussian people with minority of the party wanting to return the state back to Russia or have the northern Oblast of Chernarussian turn back to Russia. Shortly after Chernarussian independence there was an increase in tensions between the Chernarussian and Russian populations with multiple hate crimes aganist Russian and Chernarussian ethnic groups increasing over the fear the ethnic populations turning on each other.

Before in 1990 Chernarus was run by a Prime Minster but in 1991 the Government was determent to transition from the head of state from a Prime Minster to a President and change it's constitution turn the state from a Federation to a Republic. This upset the ethnic Russian population very much increasing tension between the Chenarussian and Russian people.
In February of 1991 the Russian Patriotic Militia (RPM) was set up by National Party which it consisted of many party members and members of the Chernarussian National Guard (CNG). Over the next 10 months the National Party and RPM planned a coup against the Chernarussian government, with the intention of having the ethnically Russian population control over the Chernarussian population.
