===Novugdidi Crisis===
===Novugdidi Crisis===
The anger and frustration felt by the southern Salovian peoples culminated with the [[Novugdidi Hostage Crisis]] of December 1984, wherein a group of armed militants captured a number of important governmental buildings located in the city of Novugdidi and held the inhabitants hostage, demanding that Chancellor Strovani either "step down and let the people decide their own fate, or face judgement by the people," which was interpreted by the Salovian government as a death threat to the Chancellor. As such, a covert operation was initiated to eliminate the belligerents and rescue the hostages, among them being the Mayor of Novugdidi and business mogul Yuri Posol and his eleven-year-old son Remis. The belligerents were successfully eliminated, but at a severe political cost. The killing of the abductors by the Salovian government had only catalyzed into a series of riots that coalesced into a multi-regional uprising.
