On the 24th of December, 2023, [[Korru Mezenas Naaru]], alongside the paramilitary and cult group he ran, the [[Society of the Yellow Dragon]], performed a coup d'etat on the Azkali government. The [[Parliament of the Azkali State|parliament building]] and [[Presidential Estate of the Azkali State|presidential estate]] in Chekearoa were all shelled by tankfire, in addition to most of the other important Azkali government ministries. Meanwhile, government ministries and some foreign embassies in other cities, such as [[Otzeipao]], [[Tautauzi]], and [[Harrikam (Azkali)|Harrikam]] were occupied by armed militants. Government resistance was virtually absent during this fighting, allowing the militants to establish a government over the following hours and days with virtually no resistance.

On the next day, of which has been colloquially termed [[The Day of Trauma (Azkali)|The Day of Trauma]], approximately 58,000 Azkali citizens - just shy of one percent of the population of Azkali, were murdered - consisting of university students and professors, teachers, ethnic minorities, humans, members of the old government and of city governments, foreign ambassadors, and so on. Although mostly commited by members of the Society of the Yellow Dragon, hundreds of Azkali civilians not connected with the organization commited murders as a part of the frenzy. This group of people have been colloquially known as ''kohoseki kalereinti'' (those who [commit] genocide). The violence continued from the 25th to the collapse of Korru's government in February. Most of the murders victims were not ethnically Azkali, however - most of the death toll of ethnic Azkalis resulted from starvation, disease, though a significant amount was due to execution.
 
Starting from the 27th and continuing until the collapse of the Korru government, most urban centers of population within Azkali (save Chekearoa and several interior cities) were evacuated, their residents forced to march into the countryside of Azkali; those who were unable to walk - i.e the elderly, sick, newborns, and so on, were murdered or abandoned to die.
