Line 24:

The revolution began as a coup organised by the [[Democratic Rebirth Society]] (Pelaxian: ''Sociedad del Renacimiento Democrático'', SRD; Reform Tainean: ''Kasikasgau des Reneisensa Demaukrata'', KRD), composed of military officers who opposed the regime, but was soon coupled with an unanticipated campaign of popular {{wp|civil resistance}}. Negotiations with [[Loa liberation movements]] began, and by 1995, the states of [[Kalanatoa]] and [[Na'aturie]] were established, located where the former [[Loaland protectorate]] used to be.

The Velvet Revolution got its name from the fact that the coup was nearly bloodless, and from the oft-used nickname for the Group of Nine, that being the "velvetines". In Rumahoki, 30 April is a [[public holidays in Rumahoki|national holiday]] ([[Classical Latin|Latin]]: ''Dies Holoserica''; Pelaxian: ''Día de Terciopelo''; Reform Tainean: ''~~Gouai~~ des Velaus'') that commemorates the revolution.
