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|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.

Preperations for armed conflict with [[Sunteria]] started almost immediately after the takeover of the Azkali government. A few days before the invasion of [[Sunteria]], Baphian forces started a [[3rd Bapho-Azkali war|preemptive invasion of Azkali]], and this somewhat delayed the preperations for the coming war. However, in the early hours of the 24th of January 2024, [[Suntero-Azkali War (2024)|skirmishes occured along the Azkalo-Sunterian border]]; the next day, a full blown military offensive occured, aswell as the [[Suntero-Azkali War (2024)|declaration of war upon Sunteria by Azkali]]. This invasion, despite the public nature of [[Korru Mezenas Naaru]]'s and the [[Society of the Yellow Dragon]]'s ideals, took most of the world by surprise, and global support for Sunteria flooded in almost immediately after the war's start. The offensive initially succeeded, and territorial gains extended ca. 100 kilometers for the first week of the invasion. Based on the principles of [[Naaruism]] and Korruvian thought, an attempted genocide of the indigenous [[Protiheuserkali Genocide (2023-2024)|Protiheuserkali]] and Oikan population occured within their occupied territories, claiming the lives of approximately 14,000 people - essentially all civilians. In addition, an estimated 10,000 Protiheuserkali-ethnic civilians (and some 500 Oikans) were kidnapped by armed forces of the [[Society of the Yellow Dragon]], aswell as a limited amount of members of the [[Azkali Armed Forces]] and [[Slavery in Naaruan Azkali|transported to Azkali to become chattel slaves.]]

Starting with the 2nd week of the invasion, the invasion turned catastrophic. The Azkali frontline stalled (it's westernmost extent being around the town of [placeholder]), before utterly collapsing following the Battle of [Placeholder]. With this defeat, fighters along the front retreated en mass, implementing a limited scorched earth policy as it went, razing several towns and cities along its path. Meanwhile, Baphian troops had advanced with virtually no resistance and had approached the outskirts of [[Okotsi]] and [[Chekearoa]].
