April Revolution

The April Revolution was a civil war led by then-Vice Mayor RobRibRab in order to gain independence from the US after then-Mayor zebra4lif made a controversial statement that New Greenwood would be integrated into the USA as a state.

Outbreak
Shortly after the statement by Mayor zebra4lif, a resistance group was formed by RobRibRab known as the New Greenwood Resistance. Due to a lack of funding, they armed themselves with M1911 pistols (and occasional Deagles, though rare) and declared the independent Republic of New Greenwood. After a brief standoff, full-blown conflict quickly erupted. The Resistance were very much at a disadvantage as they were outnumbered, outgunned and had much less fortification than the Electric Special Forces. Nevertheless, they stood their ground and caused several casualties to the ESF, successfully defending themselves.

Successful Revolution
The initial success of the Resistance did not last for long, as they were quickly pushed back into the State House due to their lack of preparation. The Resistance managed, however, to quickly construct makeshift fortifications at the State House leading to the ESF taking heavy losses and being unable to push any further. The ESF then pulled back, beginning a meeting in a building just north of the city to discuss what to do next. This led to the Resistance quickly overrunning the majority of the town and surrounding the meeting, which after a while caused the ESF to retreat altogether. They were later disbanded after their defeat.
