The Carto-Porlosi conflict, sometimes referred to as the Luso Wars, became a series of conflicts between Cartadania and a very successful insurgency in Porlos in the late 1930s, at this point being publicly supported by the Walakee | The Carto-Porlosi conflict, sometimes referred to as the Luso Wars, became a series of conflicts between Cartadania and a very successful insurgency in Porlos in the late 1930s, at this point being publicly supported by the Walakee State, which caused an even larger rift between Tierrador and Cartadania. Cartadania, having been the sovereign of much of southwestern Crona for just over 100 years at the beginning of the conflicts, reflected a colonial ambition that was, at the time it began in 1791, one of the most far-flung in the western world. The conflict stemmed from PLIAD, that had previously been present in the Porlosi capital city, Pacuí, storming the [[Cartadanian Armed Forces]] base in San Ysidro. Initially, the group of approximately 250 men and women entered the town square, looting a local department store and assaulting its employees and patrons. The group continued causing civil unrest, and while San Ysidro was quite small for a "city", with just over 8,000 inhabitants at the time, the community was largely military personnel, and the assault occurring throughout the area triggered a response from the Department of Defense. | ||
Initially, military police began the response effort to curtail the rebellion by a series of arrests primarily around San Ysidro Falls, but when members of the militia began to storm the base itself, the Army mobilized in an effort to quell the rebellion altogether. In the coming days and weeks, the rebel militia, at this point known as Internal Liberal Party for Action and Defense (Cartadanian: Partido liberal interno para ação e defesa, PLIAD), had grown to well over a thousand people in the area, accounting for 1/8th of the bodycount in San Ysidro. The base was instructed to refrain from using live ammunition as Alahuela wanted to avoid a global response, but due to PLIAD's unbiased usage of lethal weaponry, President Leila Cavalcani executed the order. The basis for the conflict was assumed to be independence due to ongoing talks about an autonomous government, but due to Alahuela's grasp on the region, it was reluctant to let go, and as similar sentiments continued to form across Porlos, the military had to mobilize its other forces. | Initially, military police began the response effort to curtail the rebellion by a series of arrests primarily around San Ysidro Falls, but when members of the militia began to storm the base itself, the Army mobilized in an effort to quell the rebellion altogether.
