Communist Liberation Army

They reuse the flag of the Soviet Union.

The **Communist Liberation Army**, or **CLA**, is one of the antagonists in Just Cause 4: Sakaku.

## Background

They were formed in the wake of the dissolution of the Soviet Union on December 26th, 1991.

On December 30th, 1991, the Communist Liberation Army came into existence.

On December 31st, 1991, the capital of Sakaku, Sakaku City, saw massive gunfights break out between some Sakakans and government troops.

That same day, a new website emerged. It contained a single paragraph, stating "*We the Sakakans who favor a Soviet style government hereby declare war on the new Sakakan government. We will not stop until at least one out of the three things mentioned next happen. One, the government returns back to a Communist style government. Two, we overthrow the government and install an Communist government anyway. Or three, we are wiped out to the last person. We are going to guarantee the first or second options will happen.*"

## Members
