The Great Varsity Civil War (or 1st Great Varsity Civil War) was a major armed conflict between the local rebel groups of the Purple, Green and Orange Quads and Varsity College. It was the first instance of any armed conflict between the students and a school in history. The Civil War began as a consequence of the crackdown of the Orange Free Movement which led to The Orange Rebellion and subsequently plunged Varsity into a civil war. By the 2nd day, classes were suspended indefinitely until the end of the conflict and a state of emergency was declared in Varsity College.

## Prelude

In the leadup to the Civil War, much of the Orange population began protesting against the College after a set of policies disallowed freedom of movement and expression in the Orange Quad, the protests were often peaceful, sometimes violent. Violent protestors would ruin tables, graffiti walls and kick down trash cans. In response to the exacerbating crisis, Varsity College began heavily suppressing the populace with detentions and suspending the protest ringleaders. In response to this, Varsity began instating martial law and began arresting many suspected protestors, much of which were actually innocent. Following the introduction to martial law, the protestors finally reached their boiling point and officially established the Orange Free Movement, starting the rebellion and Great Varsity Civil War. The uproar of sudden armed rebellion reached through every corner of the College and inspired other, sometimes more violent movements in the other Quads.

## Belligerents

### Orange Free Movement (Orange Republic)

Being the largest of the rebel groups, the Free Movement gained massive popularity and at it's greatest territorial extent it managed to reach from the Senior General buildings to the Canteen which equaled to a quarter of the college. After several successful military operations in both the eastern and western Orange areas, the Free Movement declared itself as the 'Orange Republic' to which it would remain until its defeat and dissolution in November 2022.

### Purple Free Army

The Purple Movement is the rebellion against the Purple Quad, despite being one of the weakest rebellion movements, it was the most brutal in it's fighting due to the extremely patriotic nature of the Grade 7's (the residents of the Purple Quad). The Purple Movement was largely caused by 7th Grade defectors of the Orange Free Movement who decided to create their own rebellion days after the war began.

### Green People's Liberation Force

Arguably the least popular rebellion, the juniors in the Green Quad rose up largely thanks to orange republican support. However, being the most loyal of the quads, the Green Quad largely kept the rebellion under control without any major Varsity intervention.

### Orange Quad

After the rebellion, the Orange government was split on either joining the rebellion or to keep fighting with Varsity College, despite the overwhelmingly decisive vote to keep fighting for Varsity College some low level representatives began sending vital information to the Free Movement that helped prolong the war effort, after the war the representatives who aided the rebels would be expelled from the college.

### Varsity College (Governing Body)

The state preceding the Federal Union of Varsity, Varsity College didn't have any organised political system or military to fight the rebellion so they hastily recruited a rag tag group later known as the United Varsity Militia to act as the 'armed forces of Varsity.' The Militia did famously terrible and it's only accomplishment was to prolong the war enough for the rebellions to collapse internally. Despite the incompetence showed in the Militia, Varsity still managed to keep the college intact throughout the war and prevented any further rebellions from occuring, this was mostly due to the unpopularity of the free movements by the populace outside of the quads and the massive amounts of aid and support given to Varsity by Allahcord and Refugee Camp. This would be the first and only time that Allahcord, Refugee Camp and Varsity would cooperate.

## First Phase (Early April - Late June 2022)

Following the establishment of the Orange Free Movement, Varsity suspended all classes indefinitely and declared that the college remains in a 'state of emergency' until further notice. Soon after this announcement, tens of hundreds of students rose up in the Quads in what was to be the first armed conflict of any school in history. To prevent a complete collapse of the integrity of the College, Varsity instated an Irregular Militia for the time being to combat any armed rebellion. (unfinished)

## Second Phase (Late June - Late November 2022)

Following the Siege of the Choir and the rise of several rebellions in the other quads, Varsity called upon the entirety of its college to join the war on Varsity's side to which they all accepted as per the agreements set out in the beginning of The Orange Rebellion.

## Notable Events

### The Speech of the Limit

The Speech of the Limit was the most immediate cause of the Great Varsity Civil War. It was spoken by 2 unknown senior students who were eager to play a relatively harmless prank to the students in the Orange Quad. The prank mainly involved holding a speech (of which the majority of its contents were plagiarised from famous speeches from dictators like Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini) and awaiting the response of the confused attendents of the speech, it was lacking in humour or subtlety and it didn't pay off in the slightest. Expecting a laugh from eachother the 2 senior students soon found themselves in complete shock to hear the mass chanting of the words excerpted from the speech they just spoke. The chanting turned to yelling, the yelling turned to rioting, the rioting turned to violence, and in the chaos, someone took up arms and decided that it was the time for action against Varsity College, the 2 senior students were never heard from again in Varsity shortly after the speech and are presumed to have left Varsity for Bond University, a private University.
