In the southern hills of the Attican Mountain Range, a prospector by the name of Gregor Durchhause discovered a few flecks of gold in a river running from the mountain range. News spread thru Attican newspapers like wildfire. The Attican Kaiser sent 2 government prospectors to the site, and confirmed it is one of the largest gold deposits in world history, possibly. People began pouring into the region, but the Kaiser, adament on keeping the gold government owned (the mountain range is govenment property), sent Ueberheerschars XX and XXI, approximately 198,000 troops, to secure the mountain range from prospectors.
The prospectors, and civilian miners, wanting to mine the gold for themselves, began staging protests. The government remained adament.
Small militia bands began being created in southern Attika. It seemed as a southern revolution might be sparked, and the entire country could be divulged into a civil war because of this yellow mineral.
Tensions are high, as what the south Atticans call the "Provisorium Staatsregierung aus Suedattika", or Provisionary Government of Attica, are demanding that the Imperial Government of Attica recognize southern independence, while the miners don't seem to lean either way, and just want to mine. The Imperial Government has not recognized the provisionary government, and send Ueberheerschars XXII and XXV, with 99,000 regular infantry and 39,780 Kaiserheer, or special forces, to south Attika to forcefully disassemble this provisional government.
