Background

Creeperian Civil War

Rakeoian Civil War

Main article: Rakeoian Civil War

The end of the Rakeoian civil war saw the parliamentary government collapse, a military dictatorship secure power, and the rise of pseudo-legal paramilitary groups. A program of full independence, to be achieved through near complete isolationism, was instituted by Richard Cornell in 1956. Almost immediately the economy began to falter. A lack of coal imports plunged millions into darkness and stalled industries, fields previously used for profitable exports went fallow. As a consequence, remaining industries were pushed to become more productive.

As political turmoil damaged more energy dependent sectors, fishing maintained profitability, and a record number of fishing vessels were deployed. When the agriculture sector rebounded, the price of fish was reduced considerably. In response, fishers began to search for better waters.
