The independence of [[Housatonic]] led to significant calls for government reform in [[Pachaug]], which had suffered as a consequence of the economic rise of other parts of [[NSTA]]. New leaders took charge of Pachaug following elections in [[2030]] and began symbolic efforts to signal their city's attempts at independence. The symbolic measures encouraged street protests which evolved into an uprising over the course of March and April [[2032]]. As the uprising progressed into creation of an insurrectionary government which took hostages, NSTA members met on 4 May [[2032]] and voted to respond with force. The Trinational Army was chosen to act because of a desire to avoid Levantine or Occidental forces against protesters, as NSTA was instead desirous of Cronans being seen to resolve their own issues; as Pachaug was de jure part of the Confederacy's territory, it was determined that the TNA would be deployed. On 5 May the Confederacy voted to intervene. The TNA entered Pachaug territory on 10 May and, following quick gains, its advance slowly bogged down into a siege that would last until August. Operational failures on the TNA's part led to the death of most of the hostages and a massacre on 18 August once Pachaug had been retaken. The Pachaug debacle instituted a period of reform of the still less-than-a-decade old TNA which included foreign advisors.
After the rebellion was crushed, it became clear that Pachaug required a final political solution, and most agreed that independence was not in the cards. Due to the legal and ethnic ties between Pachaug and the Confederacy, it soon became consensus both in and outside of Pachaug that union with the Confederation was the best outcome. Following months of military occupation and negotiations between both parties, Pachaug was admitted as the Fourth Republic of the Confederacy on 1 July [[2033]]. Since that time, the Confederacy has been focused on economic and social integration of Pachaug as well as its continued climb out of poverty via the [[improvement economy]].
