The Jade Resistance Movement was formed during the chaos of the [[Kiravian Civil War]], originating from the Brilliant Jade Battalion, a militia associated with the Whirlwind Brigades, the armed wing of the [[Kiravian Social-Nationalist Party]]. The Brilliant Jade Battallion was named for the area where it was founded by Kasteran revolutionary A.K. Fortisevin in the Jade Hills region of the [[Eastern Highlands]] along the Kastera-Kiorgia border. Originally, most of its fighters hailed from Kiorgia and southern Kastera and Hiterna, and many had roots in the smaller industrial cities and agricultural market towns of this region. The Battalion initially fought against both the Federalist government and the Kiravian Red Army, but following the alliance between the Social-Nationalist Party and the Communists in 1933, the Battalion broke from the KSNP and its Whirlwind Brigades and threw in with the Federalist side, recognising that the government and its allied militia were now the only viable opposition to the Red Army. Generalissimo [[Séan Kæśek]] respected Fortisevin's capabilities as a commander, and placed him in command of all former KSNP defectors, whom Fortisevin absorbed into his unit, now known as the Jade Resistance Brigades.

The Jade Resistance Movement was formed during the chaos of the [[Kiravian Civil War]], originating from the Brilliant Jade Battalion, a militia associated with the Whirlwind Brigades, the armed wing of the [[Kiravian Social-Nationalist Party]]. The Brilliant Jade Battallion was named for the area where it was founded by Kasteran revolutionary A.K. Fortisevin in the Jade Hills region of the [[Eastern Highlands]] along the Kastera-Kiorgia border. Originally, most of its fighters hailed from Kiorgia and southern Kastera and Hiterna, and many had roots in the smaller industrial cities and agricultural market towns of this region. The Battalion initially fought against both the Federalist government and the Kiravian Red Army, but following the alliance between the Social-Nationalist Party and the Communists in 1933, the Battalion broke from the KSNP and its Whirlwind Brigades and threw in with the Federalist side, recognising that the government and its allied militia were now the only viable opposition to the Red Army. Generalissimo [[Séan Kæśek]] respected Fortisevin's capabilities as a commander, and placed him in command of all former KSNP defectors, whom Fortisevin absorbed into his unit, now known as the Jade Resistance Brigades. A manifesto for a notional political party, the Kiravian Popular Social-National Resistance Party, was drawn up shortely thereafter and a central committee chaired by Fortiseven was formed, but the party existed on paper only and would not partake in the political process until after the war.  


The Jade Brigades would continue to fight alongside the regular army and rightist militia even as the tide of the war in the Eastern Theatre turned decisively in favour of the Socialists. The main body of the Brigades had the good fortune to be evacuated to [[South Kirav]] after the fall of [[Primóra]], and only a small detachment were assigned to aid [[McDickus_family#Whiggus_McDickus|Whiggus McDickus]] in his doomed defence of [[Ilánova]]. When the Federalists were finally forced to abandon the Kiravian mainland completely, surviving Jade Brigades fighters were evacuated to [[Æonara]], the new seat of the government-in-exile that would become the [[Kiravian Remnant]].
