| − | The '''2003 Creeperian coup d'état''' ([[Creeperian language|Creeperian]] – [[Creeperian script|Creeperian]]: ''Գոլպե դե Եստադո Ծրեեպերիանո դե 2003''; Creeperian – [[Iberic script|Iberic]]: ''Golpe de Estado Creeperiano de 2003''), also sometimes referred to as '''The Coup''' (Creeperian – Creeperian: ''Ել Գոլպե''; Creeperian – Iberic: ''El Golpe''), '''The Restoration''' (Creeperian – Creeperian: ''Լա'Րեստորածիօն''; Creeperian – Iberic: ''La'Restoración''), and '''18–J''' (Creeperian: ''18–Ջ''), was a military coup d'état in [[Creeperopolis]] that deposed the [[Alfonsisto|totalitarian government]] of Emperor [[Alfonso VI of Creeperopolis|Alfonso VI]]. On 18 June 2003, after four years of totalitarian rule, overt government corruption, political unrest, severe [[Hyperinflation in Creeperopolis|hyperinflation]], and surging crime rates, the [[Creeperian Armed Forces]], lead by Chief Field Marshal [[Augusto Cabañeras Gutiérrez]], Chief Admiral [[Edmundo González Robles]], and Chief General [[Arturo Merino Núñez]], seized power in a coup d'état and established a [[Romerist Military Junta|short-lived transitionary military junta]]. The coup had the support of the government of [[Quebecshire]] and the [[Intelligence Directorate of Quebecshire]] (DRQ) which sent financial aid and military advice to the Creeperian Armed Forces. | + | The '''2003 Creeperian coup attempt''', known in [[Creeperopolis]] as '''18–J''' ([[Creeperian language|Creeperian]]: 18–Ջ), was a failed coup attempt which sought to install [[Alfonso, Prince of La'Victoria]], the second son of Emperor [[Romero III of Creeperopolis|Romero III]], as the emperor of Creeperopolis. During the coup, Romero III was killed by rebel forces loyal to Alfonso, but Alfonso himself was also killed and military forces loyal to Romero III asserted control over the country and established the [[Romerist Military Junta]]. The junta proclaimed [[Alexander II of Creeperopolis|Alexander, Prince of Extremadura]] as the country's emperor. |

| − | Alfonso VI was proclaimed as Emperor in 1999 following the death of [[Romero III of Creeperopolis|Romero III]]. During his reign, the [[Economy of Creeperopolis|Creeperian economy]] suffered [[Hyperinflation in Creeperopolis|severe hyperinflation]], two unpopular treaties were signed with [[Mara Salvatrucha]] and the [[Militarist Front for National Liberation]], and the government was clouded by several scandals, most notably ''[[Marapolitics]]''. His regime was and has since been labeled as totalitarian, and many have criticized his reign during and after the regime.

Many were killed or later executed. The [[San Salvador Imperial Palace]] and other important government buildings were secured by the armed forces with little to no resistance from [[Creeperian Imperial Guard|imperial guardsmen]]. The military declared [[Martial Law in Creeperopolis (2003–2004)|martial law]] in the wake of the coup and a 10:00 p.m. curfew was initiated across the country. | |

Cabañeras Gutiérrez gained significant power following the coup and is considered to be one of the most powerful people in Creeperopolis. The military proclaimed Alfonso VI's second and oldest surviving son, [[Alexander II of Creeperopolis|Alexander II]], as the new Emperor, but the military held absolute authority and control until he was coronated on 15 September 2003 and the junta was officially dissolved. The military, however, continues to hold significant power and influence in Creeperian politics and national governance.

The coup has been proclaimed by [[Propaganda in Creeperopolis|Creeperian propaganda]] as an event which saved the nation from its impending demise and allowed Creeperopolis to "catch up" with the rest of the [[Terraconserva|world]].
