Kirosocialism held little appeal for the average Koskenkorvan, given its limited industrial development and widespread collective village ownership of land. The ''Xēmbra'' denounced the declaration of the [[Kiravian Union]] and the island became a safe haven for loyalist Kiravian Navy ships fleeing the Northeastern naval bases, as well as for anti-communist emigrés. Koskenkorva remained a Federalist stronghold until after the defeat of the [[Farravonian Counterrevolution]] in [YEAR] left Kirosocialist forces free to finally mount an assault on the island. The rump KFR government based in [[Æonara]] could no longer realistically maintain its lines of communication and was forced to evacuate its forces. Many emigrés, some being displaced for the second time, were able to escape to [[Suderavia]] and [[Scapa]]. Valkadun, which had seen its coastal defence artillery lifted by the retreating Federalist troops, surrendered to the Red Fleet without firing a shot. The Xēmbra fled inland to Kosovo and attempted to rally a militia to resist the invaders, but the lightly-armed and poorly-organised Koskenkorvan militia proved no match for Red Army shock troops. Most of the remaining loyalist government was captured at Kosovo or the northern village of Hyaloñ in [Month] [Year], and the Xēmbra was collectively tried and publically executed in Valkadun in [Month]. A low-level guerilla insurgency would continue in densely-forested backwoods areas. | |||
An already poor and remote region, Koskenkorva would not fare well under Kirosocialist rule. The island was declared off-limits to foreign trade and visitors, and even travel by KU citizens was tightly restricted by the Ministry of Public Security. | |||
