1433. The Second Mandalore Coup
Deep in the northeastern reaches of the Milky Way, the planet Mandalore.
Now the planet Mandalore is forming a delicate and dangerous balance, and this balance may be broken at any time, with catastrophic consequences.
Ever since the planet Mandalore suddenly announced a referendum without warning and then joined the Confederation of Independent Systems, this sector was destined to never be peaceful again.
That farcical referendum soon ended with the disappearance of the Grand Duke of Mandalore, Satine Kryze. Afterwards, Almec, the Prime Minister of Mandalore, who proclaimed himself the Grand Duke of Mandalore, did not overthrow Satine Kryze. Referendum results in Tin Kriz.
Because he is also concerned about Satine Kriz's political reputation and hopes to use this to consolidate his dominance.
But after all, this is impossible. What the Galactic Republic wants is not the facts. What they want is just an excuse to send troops.
Therefore, the Second Galaxy Army of the Republic, under the personal leadership of Master Windu, immediately left the defense zone and headed for the planet Mandalore. They issued an ultimatum to the planet Mandalore, asking them to dissolve the current government and establish it according to the list given by the Republic. The new government immediately joined the war and declared war on separatism.橚
Prime Minister Almek rejected this ultimatum. He knew very well that once he accepted this ultimatum, he would never be able to touch the position of the Grand Duke of Mandalorian planet again.
He continued to send communications to Count Dooku, hoping that the results of this referendum could be exchanged for support from the Confederation of Independent Systems. This is also the reason why he has been unwilling to give up the inexplicable referendum result of Satine-Kriz. Because if Count Dooku is willing to support, it will also be a disguised support for his status as the unknown Grand Duke of Mandalore.
With the assurance of being the second most powerful man in the galaxy, his position as Grand Duke will be extremely secure.
But on the other hand, this is what the Galactic Republic is waiting for.
Under the leadership of Master Windu, the main fleet of the Republic's Second System Army rushed into the Mandalorian planet after the ultimatum arrived. Although it did not directly occupy it, it also completely blocked the planet.
This is actually done because the Galactic Republic is wary of the Alliance of Neutral Planets led by Mandalore. After all, this is a large alliance with more than 1,500 galaxies. Once the invasion of the Mandalorian planet by the Galactic Republic's armed forces becomes a reality, the 1,500 galaxies will likely react in a very extreme way.
With the blockade of the Galactic Republic fleet, Prime Minister Almek's situation is getting worse.橚
Because the planet Mandalore had already become a mess after Grand Duke Satine Kryze disappeared, and people's trust in the government almost dropped to a freezing point. Many administrative divisions, including Korda Bay City, the former capital of the planet Mandalore, have also announced that they will no longer accept the management of the Sundari City government.
At the same time, Count Dooku didn't give him any response at all. He neither agreed nor refused, just dragging on.
Under such circumstances, the Almec prime minister could hardly maintain his rule.
Therefore, after the planet Mandalore was blocked for a week, Prime Minister Almec had to announce that he would abandon the referendum results, but at the same time he also announced that he would continue the previous policy of Grand Duke Satine Kryze, and the planet Mandalore would still remain neutral. .
But the Galactic Republic will not give him this opportunity, and the requirements of the Second Galaxy Army remain unchanged - Prime Minister Almec will step down immediately, and the Galactic Republic will preside over the selection of the new government of Mandalore. Note that they use the word selection, not election.
The blockade is still going on.
However, even at this level, it is still difficult for the Galactic Republic to directly implement military occupation of the planet Mandalore, because the 1,500 star systems of the Neutralist Alliance have not yet made a clear stance.橚
From this point of view, Satine-Krizi's policy is actually very effective. At the very least, the political environment she left behind did make the Galactic Republic extremely wary of direct armed invasion.
But now, this fragile balance has been broken!
No.
On the flagship of the main fleet of the two-system army, Master Mace Windu received a communication - a communication from the satellite of Mandalorian planet, the governor of Concordia State on the Concordia satellite, Transcendent Vizsla !
Extraordinary Vizsla told Master Windu that he would replace the Republican ***, expel the current government of Almec Prime Minister, establish a new pro-Republic government, and is willing to accept the conditions of the Republic - to join the war, and to The Confederacy of Independent Systems declares war!
Transcendent Vizsla also told Master Windu that he was a Mandalorian, so if this matter was left to the Mandalorians themselves, it would be much simpler than it would be handled by an external force like the Galactic Republic. But at the same time, the Galactic Republic must also publicly recognize the legitimacy of his Mandalorian organization.
That's right, recognize the legitimacy of the Death Guard!
Master Windu directly agreed to this request. He agreed to this request as the commander of the Second System Army and reported this decision to the headquarters planet Nubia.橚
Soon, the Governor of the Second Army, Fliry Vorru, agreed with the decision and submitted it to the Galactic Parliament.
The results came quickly. The Death Watch, an extreme terrorist organization born on the planet Mandalore, was officially recognized by the Galactic Republic!
After being recognized, Chao Chao Vizsla, the governor of Concordia, immediately stood up and declared his identity as the Death Guard to the public on Mandalorian planet. He also declared that Prime Minister Almec's regime was illegal and he would overthrow Almec. Mek's rule put the planet Mandalore on the right track.
This was just the beginning. Bo-Katan Kryze, the sister of the missing Grand Duke of Mandalore Satine Kryze, also stood up and publicly announced her support for the Death Guard, and also revealed her identity as a Death Guard.
At the same time, the activities of the Death Watch were directly exposed on the planet Mandalore!
Wearing black Mandalorian Crusader armor, the Death Guard swaggered onto the streets and charged towards the city's administrative center. With great fanfare, they directly captured all the city's administrative agencies and shot them on the spot!
The Death Guard's approach is so simple and crude!橚
But now, Prime Minister Almec has completely lost control of the situation, and the planet Mandalore is completely leaderless! In the past, Satine Kryze could gather the power of a large number of political factions on the entire Mandalorian planet to encircle and suppress the Death Guard, and drive them underground to dare not show up. However, the current Prime Minister of Almec does not have this ability at all.
He could only sit in despair in the palace of Sundali City, watching cities succumb to the oppression of the Death Guard.
And this coup is called the Second Mandalorian Coup!
