Spagistani Revolution

Background
The Spagistani Revolution was the bloodiest conflict in the history of Spagistan. Lasting 1 year, the civil war led to some of the fiercest fighting that Spagistan has ever seen.

Spagistan, once known as Takistan before the war, was founded by Supreme-Colonel Spaghetta and his 1st Army Corps. The nation was founded after a brutal civil war that was initiated by Soviet leaders and Soviet backed forces.

During it's collapse, The Soviet Union began placing heavy tariffs and taxes on the industrial and agricultural sectors of Spagistan (then known as Takistan under soviet rule) crippling the nation's economy and causing a massive economic crash. Spagistani citizens were forced to resort to using cigarettes (also known as cancer-sticks) as currency. This fueled many riots and strikes against the soviet leaders that were in charge of the nation at that time. The Soviets retaliated, leading to the "Long Night of Dark".

Formation of Spagistan
After the "Long Night of Dark", the Spagistani supreme leader founded Spagistan with the rallied support of roughly 45,000 Spagistani citizens, who had previously had a variety of jobs ranging from caviar farmers to cigarette manufacturers. These people were placed under the command of Spaghetta to form the 1st army corps. The training of these civilians began, overseen by Spaghetta, and initiated by a variety of ex police, military, and even former soviet commanders. It was at this point that the first embers of revolution in Spagistan began to glow brightly.

Beginning of the Spagistani Revolution
On the 18th of June after months of careful planning, Spaghetta commanded 1st platoon to mount a surprise attack on the soviet controlled Mt. Korobeiniki. This marked the first battle of the Spagistani Revolution. Spaghetta and his men assembled 5 km to the south of the mountain in a series of foothills. Arming his infantry lightly and moving on foot, first platoon was able to assemble quietly, enabling them to completely surprise the soviet forces which were comprised of local Soviet-backed militia forces mixed in with the Soviet Army overseeing the area.

Capture and Defense of Mt. Korobeiniki
Spagistani First Platoon were able to capture and exploit abandoned Soviet tanks and many Soviet weapons, which were of higher quality, in order to assist their assault. Spagistani First Platoon fully captured and secured the mountain at 5:30pm, June 18th, after many hours of fierce fighting. It was at 7:30pm when enemy contact was initiated as Soviet forces launched a heavy counter assault on Spagistani-captured fortifications. After 2 hours of fierce fighting, enemy forces retreated after losing an MI-28 attack helicopter and a BMP to Spagistani forces. Soviet forces retreated to the city of Nagara to the east of Mt. Korobeiniki.

Southern Assault
Spagistani forces swept through the south-eastern portions of Spagistan, capturing and creating fortifications overlooking key Soviet-controlled areas in the Sanginakt mountain ranges, Darbang pass, Nagara, Sakhe, and Loy Manera. This front line succesfully tore the country down the middle and enabled Spagistani forces to gain a major foothold on the nation. It was from this line that Spagistani forces were able to encircle Feruz-Abad, which was later renamed Spaghdad and declared the capital of Spagistan. Encirclement of Feruz-Abad, Spagistan.
