 Following the conclusion of [[Operation Kipling]] and the advent of mass [[containerization]] by the [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] war effort, [[Audonia]] became a center of outsourcing. Far more developed than [[Alshar]] with much of its own infrastructure and a mature raw mineral extraction industry, Yanuban and the other [[Audonia]]n nations were spared the spate of recolonization that has become common in the late 20th and early 21st century in [[Crona]]. The seaports, airports, roads, and railroads that dot and cross [[Audonia]] in general, and Yanuban in particular, were rebuilt by [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] companies in the 1980s and 90s. As part of the various peace treaties [[O’Shea Heavy Industries]] and [[Lansing Lines]] were contracted by the [[government of Burgundie]] to update and rebuild a vast network of communication and transportation infrastructure that, in Yanuban, were spearheaded by local engineers and workers. The experience was vital to a resurgence in the local economy as they switched from agricultural to heavy manufacturing. By the early 2000s they had become a massive exporter in the microprocessor business as well as in cellphone manufacturing. The GDPPC of the nation climbed from $493 to $1,502 between [[1998]] and [[2026]] and bore witness to a small but vocal middle class.
+====2023 Coup====
+Following a poor harvest season in the autumn of 2022-23, bread prices skyrocketed in the early winter food riots broke out. The Yanubi government turned to [[Burgundie]] for foreign aid in March of [[2023]] and was granted a large grain concession from nearby [[Bulkh]]. These grain shipments were initially rushed by starving locals and the Yanubi Gendarmerie National fired on the crowds in a number of locations killing 4 civilians and injuring 12 more across the country. [[Burgundie]] insisted that a detachment of the [[Umardi Askari]] or the [[Burgoignesc Foreign Legion]] be deployed to ensure the equitable and orderly distribution of the grain on March 3rd and the Yanubi government conceded. On March 4th two Plantoons of the [[Umardi Askari]], and the 8th Platoon of SeaBees of the [[Navy_of_Burgundie#Grand_Eastern_Command|Grand Eastern Command]]'s Expeditionary Strike Squadron Kandahar Resolve arrived and established a base of operations just outside the capital Muqadas. On March 9th, the 3rd Independent Company of Forward Air Operators, [[Royal Air Service of Burgundie]] and a platoon of the Provost Gendarmerie of the III Division Foreign Legion arrived to support the expanding mission. The situation stabilized in late March and early April, but the populace grew agitated at the rapid escalation of Burgoignesc forces close to the capital implying that the Yanubi government was not able to manage its own affairs within the country. Following remarks released on May 15th, [[2023]] of the Great Prince of [[Burgundie]] saying "the nations of the [[Middle seas region]] wouldn't exist without [[Burgundie]]. ''Burgaudonie'' is the gateway of civilization on that continent." protesters started to gather around the base that the [[Burgoignesc Foreign Legion]] was operating out of. They demanded that the Legionnaires leave and that the [[Global Burgieman]] leave Yanuban and leave its affairs unimpeded. The protest expanded in the first week of June leading to tense negotiations between the Yanubi and [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] Foreign Minister. After a week of failed negotiations and multiple crowd rushes of the main gate of the base, illustrating failures in the ability of the Yanubi National Gendarmerie.
+Over the night of June 7th a clandestine mission was flown over the capital and a heavy anti-riot truck and a squad of the [[National Gendarmerie of Burgundie]]'s Mobile Gendarmerie were dropped into the base with support from the 3rd Independent Company of Forward Air Operators. When the Yanubi protesters returned on the morning of the 8th they were immediately repulsed and dispersed by the shocking show of organization and force. The rest of the week was relatively calm around the base but numerous, smaller protests occurred throughout the capital city and other regional capitals. The [[National Gendarmerie of Burgundie]] units were preparing to demobilize on Sunday the 13th, but Saturday morning, after a day of prayer wherein imams around the country railed against [[Burgundie]], a crowd of over 1,000 people gathered outside the base. Efforts to disperse them failed, but they were not able to approach the maingate. By noon the crowd had grown to around 2,500 people. The riot truck's water cannon was used to push the crowds back but the group continued to grow. With all eyes on the events unfolding in the quartier with the base no one noticed a small gathering of military vehicles in the rear of the parliament building. At 1304 local time the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the heads of each branch of the military and the National Gendarmerie stormed the parliament, and declared the republic dissolved. They insisted that all [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] politicians, diplomats, and military personnel leave within 72 hrs.
+Over the rest of the day the remainder of the government buildings in the capital were occupied by the military, with no resistance from staff and government personnel. At 1700, the Yanubi National Gendarmerie around the military base with the Burgoignesc Foreign Legion were withdrawn, but not before the [[National Gendarmerie of Burgundie]] were ordered back within the confines of the base. The night of June 8th was very tense but no interactions occurred either between the protesters and the [[Burgundie|Burgoigniacs]] or the government and the Armed Forces of Yanuban.
+The week of June 13th saw a flurry of activity as the military took control of more of the country and the government kept retreating and reforming. By the end of June the country had completely fallen under the control of the military and the government had fled in exile to [[Bulkh]], where it operated out of its embassy to that nation. During this time the base with the [[Burgoignesc Foreign Legion]] was largely forgotten. It wasn't until July 1, that the junta turned its attention back to the base. They reissued the ultimatum of 72 hours to [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] politicians, diplomats, and military personnel. A coalition of regional nations: [[Battganuur]], [[Bulkh]], and [[Umardwal]] condemned the coup, while [[Pursat]] tacitly supported the coup saying that the country had a right to self-determination and that [[Burgundie]] was too aggressively asserting itself in the lives of [[Audonia]]ns.
+Using its bases on [[Chaukhira]] the [[Navy of Burgundie]]'s [[Navy_of_Burgundie#Grand_Eastern_Command|Grand Eastern Command]]'s Rapid Deployment Group 6 established a perimeter off the southwestern coast of the country, just beyond its economic exclusion zone on July 9th. The military junta claimed that [[Burgundie]] was establishing an embargo and fanned the flames of anti-[[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] sentiment in the country. No ships were stopped or searched by the [[Navy of Burgundie]]'s flotilla but the Rapid Deployment Group 6 remained in a posture of high readiness in the event it needed to extricate the Legionnaires under fire. The Burgoignesc Ambassador Plenipotentiary and the junta-declared "Foreign Minister of Yanuban" met for another round of negotiations after the deadline had passed and the [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] politicians, diplomats, and military personnel had not left. The meetings dragged on for two weeks with no resolution and the populace became agitated with the pace and once again began to gather in front of the base. This time throwing rocks and trash at the perimeter walls.
