Caludonhian Drug War

The Caludonhian Drug War of '95 took place in northwestern New Caludonhia between the years 2295 to 2297. A mule train, led by Free State militia, carrying 90 tons of opium crossed into Northwestern Dubaraszia to New Caludonhia, where they were attacked by rival drug smugglers from the Yugamorla Syndicate. The intended recipient of the shipment, L'empereur verdant tha Don Mattheus Maharajah II, covertly orders vicious attacks on both sides while moving in troops to sweep the mountain passes bordering the Northwest without breaking the truce of '93. With both Free State militia and Yugamorla gang members defeated and expelled from Northwestern Dubaraszia, the Caludonhian warlord confiscated the opium for himself.

The Don Maharajah would eventually lead a coalition with the Quaredriatic Free Territory to completely wipe out the Yugamorla Cartel from the Northwest in order to seize control of the rich opium supply found in the ranges of the Twin Caludonhias. With this supply of raw opium base, plus his greater grasp on the drug trade, The Don's refineries began to ship their heroin worldwide. He also supplied this injectable heroin to his allies – Partisans, warlords & revolutionaries fighting on both sides of the Dubaraszian Civil War. This would soon once more grab the attention of the already crippled Dubaraszian Free State and forced them to act to no avail. Taking advantage of the Grand Depression of '97, the Don continued to grow his criminal empire at an alarming rate, shipping opium fresh from the Northwestern mountains to the impoverished and defeated populaces of the humiliated Dubaraszian Free State along the feet of the ranges.

By 2303, a vast majority of the regions surrounding newly seceded Caludonhia in the former Dubaraszian Free State had fallen under the Maharajah Empire's control. Free State local authorities were given little choice but to act at the behest of the Don, often appeasing his demands of money and riches.

## Background

In 2295 amidst a raging civil war, a prison riot erupted in the Hardtack Hill Prison Camp located in the northwestern regions of the Dubaraszian Free State. Of the 500 participating in the violence, only 12 managed to escape before the guards began to unleash lethal force onto the hordes in cramped corridors.
