The occupation of [[Caldera]] by Qian [[Daxia]] during the [[second Great War]] started on 8 May 1936 after the surrender of all remaining Calderan forces by order of General [[Jon Weinworth]], in the aftermath of the disastrous [[Daxian_Invasion_of_Caldera#Battle_of_Bravador|Battle of Bravador]]. Despite the official surrender, various armed formations, especially those linked to the [[Volkspartei]], continued to resist the occupation and carry out hit and run attacks. [[Caldera]] was governed by a military authority until 1938 at which point the Daxians organized a native collaborationist government to oversee most civilian affairs; due to the deep seated resentment of Gothic domination this government was mainly staffed by [[Indigeno-Calderan|Volin]]s. In spite of this apparent concession to native Calderan rule, Daxian actions and historical record point to a plan to permanently control the island and colonize choice areas with ethnic [[Daxian people|Daxians]]. To this end occupation authorities built several towns and road infrastructure close to important mineral deposits in order to exploit them for the wider war effort. By 1940 some two thousand families had been moved into these new towns, although most would flee the island with the end of the occupation. Losses incurred in other fronts around [[Audonia]], the continued and intensifying resistance of [[Caldera]]'s population and the complex logistics of supplying a force in a far off island all contributed to the withdrawal of Daxian forces from the island in the spring of 1943. Several hundred Daxian settlers refused to leave with the army and, pillaging some of their equipment as it retreated, some ~~managing~~ to hold out against Calderan forces until 1958.
