The '''March for Equality''' ('''MFE''') was a demonstration in support of an overall increase in political, social, and racial equality in the representation within the governmental offices of [[Salovia]]. It took place in what is now Chita, [[Baykalia]] on June 19, 1957, and approximately 15,000 people participated in the march. It is considered by many to be a prerequisite to events that would lead to the [[Salovian Civil War]]. The protests were a response to the June 10th Voting Rights Law, endorsed by then-Chancellor Gregori Kenolivi and other high-ranking officials in the Zedakhli, that further increased the voting power of those within Baykalia when compared to the rest of the country. The deaths of [[Peliksi Mdinaridze]] and [[Erik'a Prenishvili]] sparked further protests and riots throughout Salovia, with an estimated 200,000 people participating in nationwide protests.
