The Federated States of Mexico
"The Mexican Federation"

Following World War I, many nations plummeted into economic depression. Mexico, like many Hispanic countries in the Americas, was already in their own depression of economic activity, with many nations (notably the lesser countries in Central America) having economic collapses once the World Powers (Victors of World War I) descended into depression themselves, which eventually rose to the fallings of their democracies and risings of instable dictatorships.

One nation in Central America kept its democratic status, despite its economic crisis, and that was Mexico. When the World Powers dropped into depression, Mexico was well prepared. It had already begun programmes to improve its infrastructure and telecommunications to the major regions, mostly Central, Eastern, and Baja regions of Mexico.

Government reforms to take some sectors of the economy over for direct government control and a further authoritarian notice on politics formed a Federation of the nation of Mexico, a unitary democratic system which was fighting its hardships.

Government-owned (commonly referred to as "Federative") farms and factories began to improve their output and grew in numbers, despite a deficit growing and growing and many bankers in the international world becoming even more furious with the Mexican Economic Machine. Before a legal seizure occurred, the Mexican Economy, in 1939, recovered and was one of the first to return to stable economic conditions. Its deficit, however, still plagues it as old American, British, and Spanish weaponry from World War I and the Spanish-American War become outdated and the Mexican Armed Forces look for updates in technology, although there are few due to the fact that many nations suffer economic problems.

Mexico continues to be the leading country in Hispanic growth and power, despite its massive deficit of nearly a billion pesos (roughly two billion United States Dollars) and its growing demand for more and more services by the government. An oncoming revolt of anarchists, centrists, and libertarians in the Yucatan also plague Mexico's farming ability due to the majority of its farmland being in the mineral-rich Yucatan Peninsula.

The revolt would severely destroy Mexico's economy again if nothing is done, and the war about to happen due to the dieing relations of Cecho Trujillo, a communist dictator and Colombian Separatist in Panama, is not aiding the Mexican Effort into stabilization.

Cancun, North Yucatan Province

Twelve men armed with British rifles raised their wooden arms to twelve others directly across from them, the opposites unarmed. Their faces, all of them men, showed fear, disgust, and regret. Their punishment for the fire squad: They were Federates. What were they? Not Federates, but Anarchists. The first Anarchic Revolution of the world, something that was fathomed in independent films in comedy circles.

"Mi amigos," Rang out a loud speaker dressed in a colonial era-like uniform of dark orange and brown, a general, "Shoot the pigs that try to control our lives!" He bluntly commanded as all twelve at once fired their rifles. Their rounds all flew fifty yards before hitting their targets, the majority being struck in between the eyes, with a few being slightly into an eye or cheek.

"It is time for our de son, our final victory over oppression! We must march and claim Yucatana for our own! The Federates will not be able to stop the fire that burns in our hearts from freedom of government and freedom of being controlled! We are men, not dogs, and we will fight to stay off of the leash!" Yelled out the man finely dressed as the twelve raised their guns upward and cheered with a large crowd also cheering, the majority unarmed but their hands taken with applause.

Mexico City, Tecjocilla

"Mi Presidente, we have a problem, the Yukes have finally made their move." Reported a man, finely dressed as most government officials were expected of. He had just entered the small yet roomy room where a single desk with six chairs around its circular shape rested, the Presidente's Chambers. It was where all the government decisions were made, similar to the American Oval Office.

"I know, I heard it on the radio." Said the Presidente, Antonio Marique. The radio was what reported the incident, no Mexican operatives or anything else. A sheer showmanship of Mexico's inability to support itself in such a problem. "Mi Presidente, how should we solve this problem?" The Presidente simply looked at the man and said "Notify the Third Federate Armal that they may be attacked soon, they're in the heart of Juanquan, just beside Cancun." He ordered. The man nodded and took note mentally.

"Do you know what, Sanlle?" Asked Marique, sitting at his seat at the end of the table and with numerous papers around him. "Mi Presidente?" He asked in wondrance. "Do you know how you can tell democracy ends?"

The man, Sanlle, had a blank expression of wondrance and confusion as to why he would ask such a thing. He dared not even ask "Why?".

"With a thunderous applause."

OOC: I just have to say this...as I am typing the riot scene I have "Don't Stop Me Now" by Queen playing....kind of a funny tune to type it with.

Amor Ciudad, East Yucatan Province

Men dressed in blue uniforms, poorly funded by obvious rips and dirt, walk in ill-formative formation, similar to that of an unrestricted middle school class in a hallway, their rifles at their sides, but held with both hands. Their eyes wondering back and forth, a slight fidgeting in a window taking the attention of at least fifteen of the twenty two men in the group. All were general infantry, and in the middle flew a flag. It had a blue background and in white a massive "A" illy-drawn across it and a finely-drawn box which two hands are shaking.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/Truitt/JewittistAnarchy.png

It was the unofficial flag of Yucatana, the new nation slowly forming in the Mexican Federation.

The men in blue marched on and on into the city. It was not large, but to the Yucatan's standards it was one of the largest. Love City, was what its translation into English was, and it was not that today. Behind the forces moving in, a small enforcement squad, were artillery and occupational forces, mostly those with heavier arms such as sub-machine guns and light machine guns.

The people there all hated the Federation's ways of handling the economic depression which has been solved in most of the country, with only the three Yucatan Provinces still in a separate state-based depression. Hardships from the depression were seen as kids played on top of cars that had not ran for years and some women and men even offered food and shelter to the moving forces, yet they all refused any aid.

"Today," Began the general of the movement, Severo Bonnese, to a speech to those in Cancun, the newly spoken for "capital" of Yucatana, "is the beginning of a new day, a new country. We must fight for our own freedoms, and not for expansion and domination of Mexico, but for our own nationality. For long the Spanish heritages has tried to destroy our roots in Aztec society, but not anymore. I shall hereby declare the newly independent Yucatana Confederacy!" A roar of applause erupted, yet few realized Bonnese's plans.

Immediately following the weeks later, government-owned farmlands were put into full motion into individual hands, although those individuals were all paid by the government to claim to be owning the land itself. Production of agricultural resources jumped nearly ten percent without having to supply the rest of Mexico in itself. Already the Yucatana Confederacy was well off, near the end of its individual depression.

Many in Mexico cried out for unification, yet Presidente Marique noted that there were forces in the three Yucatan Provinces, of which was true, but only one force, the Third Federate Armal, was Federative, and not Confederate. The majority of the other forces, once paid and maintained by Mexico City, now flied the "Respectable Flag of International Organized Anarchy," a statement made by Bonnnese to the BBC as it was recording a message to the people he was making.

Barreling down the streets, trucks now moved, to supply an effort onto Juanquan, the only Federate-controlled region in Yucatana, and classified as "Occupied" by many strategists watching the news.

Juanquan, North Yucatan Province

City-wide was in chaos. Fighting had broken out between civilians and Federates. Protesters of the hostile kind, in most senses.

Their mob formed just outside the Governor's Office, who was also a Federate Supporter. They then, after claiming the building for their own and declaring Juanquan a Confederate City, was met with armed infantry who walked up, rifles raised. The crowd began to chant out loud statements, a section at a time yelling the same thing, yet three or four things being yelled at once across the city, which four streets were consumed by the conflict, the barrier between civilian and Federate being a mere thirty feet.

"We are not dogs!" Chanted a group located on Sette' Avenue, the same street which the Governor's Office was. "Slave masters!" Yelled out an other group on the other side of the city.

The Federates began to sweat as the protesters slowly got closer, every minute an average of a step forward. The men in haste armed their bayonets willfully in different groups, a nervous man with a family placing the knife on his gun and then two or three around him, getting paranoid, would put one on their own.

Eventually the general, James Conners, an American-born Mexico City resident, ordered out for the light machine gun ranks to take front positions and deploy their machine guns at the feet of the standing infantry. They would mow down any attempt at a Confederate charge.

Running up with clinking and chinking sounds at their legs and shoulders, three men per gun ran up and broke up the groups for every twelve men and laid down their heavy guns. This just fueled the protesters at the sight who now yelled more ferosiously, and even became an uncontrollable roar as the tripods were deployed and the gunner took aim and both men fingered around with the ammunition boxes.

All across Juanquan this sight made the protesters more violent, and it seemed like they were organized enough to take orders from each other, fueling each other's hate and power as an individual.

Now only ten feet apart, the standing forces roared and screamed as machine gunners just waited for the point of five feet to be reached to open fire. "Only fire once they enter five feet or they charge!" Ordered out General Conners in Spanish across radios throughout the city. The message, however, was picked up by a Confederate Army in Cancun.

"We must march onto Juanquan, immediately!" Ordered Bonnese at hearing this on top of one of three tanks in the entirety of Mexico. The German machine roared as it began its charge to Juanquan. "The Federates must fall at Juanquan, for if they do, their entire army will be lost here, and will mean our existence is final!" He declared victoriously, as if he knew they would win.

Standing still and not voicing anything the infantrymen kept their rifles level, all taking aim at the head in front of them, and the gunners at their ankles aimed for waists. A gruesome sight was about to happen if a single soldier moved or if a protester just went a little out of control.

Mortar placements were aligned behind the thick infantry line of five man thick ranks. Many of the infantry in the two rear ranks willfully, although would probably have been ordered to if they had not already, took out their two stick grenades they were given each at the beginning of the day and prepared to throw them at the unadmediate groups of protesters, as the mortars would more or less target the farther back ranks some hundred meters or more. Of course, that was still good, as at least three thousand civilians were rioting on just a few streets, so entire blocks were consumed against to fight the two hundred Federate Soldiers protecting the city from seizure.

Nearly five minutes past since the mark of ten feet was reached on most confrontations, and no one had moved. The protesters still roared and yelled, the infantrymen still stood obediently straight and lined, and the mortar groups had their barrels angled just right and their rounds in hand. Then, it happened.

An artillery round boomed out from behind a building and blasted right into the heart of the group on Sette' Avenue, sending many men into the air and some mortar rounds stored on the ground exploded, causing more damage to surrounding infantry and making sure those who were thrown back were no longer alive.

Then it began. The Confederate Army had reached Juanquan, the strongest ranks of the Federates was holed in the middle with a shocked column, and as if by sheer determination, the protesters took that as their sign to attack. Armed with just fists, some having shovels, golf clubs, and baseball bats, some lucky few even with croquet mallets, charged the ranks. The first group of protesters were dead at that moment on all streets, but the second had their chance. Bullets rang out at once by the Federates and machine gun fire was heard across the country as the spitting chain was erupting from in between the infantry ranks. Protester after protester fell as the machine guns took their aim and mowed them down in horizontal fire, blinding moving their barrels back and forth, carelessly wasting ammunition by some already dead bodies, frozen in time of dramatic theater.

Mortar rounds were dropped into their barrels and a short "pop" was heard and then smoke. A moment later a portion of the rear ranks of the protesters erupted with bodies and debris of asphalt. Stick grenades were flung into the crowds, doing far more damage than the gunners or mortars, taking out ten men at a time.

The Confederates slowly made their way, still shooting off artillery occasionally. They awaited at the city limits for some time, to allow the Federates to run low on ammo and the protesters be their cover as the Confederate Army broke into three parts and surrounded the city, including the portion devoted to the fenced-off Juanquan Armal Base, which was now being targeted with mortar and artillery rounds. Not even an hour into the Siege of Juanquan, as the generals on both sides were calling it, some thousand protesters lay dead, the same figure in injured badly, and 13 Federates dead. The attacks on the base, however, left immediately 60 dead within the first couple of mortar and artillery barrages.

Juanquan now was covered in smoke as the Confederates took the upper hand and the Federates tried to stay strong, caught in the middle.

Mexico City

Generals and admirals yelled out demands to the Presidente as he stared straight, a dead reckoning of expression on his face. If Juanquan failed, so did the Yucatan as a group of provinces in the Federation. If it failed, Mexico would drop into a depression again, especially without its farmland to support its population. If it was defeated, a third of the army's strength would be gone.

"How in damnation's name could only a army of a hundred rebels take and gain the upper hand on a force three times its size, and better armed, defended, and trained?" He tried to reason with the generals in denial of the situation. "Easily, the Confederates are using their own civilians and supporters as shields. We are wasting bullets on unarmed protesters and if we run out, we will lose Juanquan."

The Presidente just said below his breath in a prayer "With a thunderous applause..."

so basically anarchists are taking over the Yucatan peninsula?

OOC: In a sum up, yes, but they are libertarians, they pretty much say Anarchy because it is the extreme to the authoritarians in power now.

(OOC: Tag, let me know if you want me to post here or in the Non-War IC thread. Still working up an official communique to the legitimate government of Mexico.)

Juanquan, Federate-Occupied Yucatana Confederacy

The siege was not in the favor of the Federates as artillery and mortars rang into the ears of those defending the city's few blocks and neighboring army base while rebels, now jumping ontop of dead protesters, using colonial-era bayonets as their primary defence.

A young man dressed in blue jumped over a dead body of some unreconizable human, half black from mortar explosives, and stabbed his bayonet on the tip of his british rifle into the shoulder of a MP Auxilaryman, who in pain shot out his automatic gun that was pointing towards the Confederate's legs. The recoil sent the barrel from the boy's knees to his shoulder, ripping holes of the entire magazine of thirty rounds into the poor rifle-carrying revolutionary who was told by his father what was right and wrong for his family.

Federates with rifles stood back as charging Confederates were mowed with machine guns and marksmen hits, yet the odds, although more losses for the Confederates, was against the Federates as more and more artillery and mortar fire came, nearly double the force they had.

The entire force retreated from the city slowly over a period of thirty minutes and made a slowly-dirven fortification in Juanquan Armal Base. Unfortunately for the Confederates, their deaths would double as rockets were launched across the entire gateway, a defencive mechanism in place to defend against any islanders attempting to invade the Yucatan, which was now used against its very residents.

The rockets exploded with shrapenal and killed in its single salvo a near hundred men, injuring every single man left that was able for combat. However, the heartless still pushed, most unable to use a limb or had no arms but a pistol or grenade.

As stick grenades and mortar rounds continued across the gates and fences surrounding the flatland base, the artillery ceased. Hoping the end of their ability to supply their guns, the Federates pushed a single lineman fire, a process which similarized itself with the revolution over Spain and musketts. However, as the Federates made thier way out of the gates to stab any injured or dead with their bayonets artillery and moratar rounds blew the gates and fence lines to smitherenes, and the remaining two hundred men were caught off guard.

Bodies flew in the air as a massive column of blue made its way over the horizon. Juanquan had fallen with few resistance left, no prisoners were to be taken. However, the protester count had well reached nearly a thousand and the Confederate Army used was lost with a few exception, a two hundred and fifty count.

With Juanquan's falling, an order was made for one of the three remaining Mexican Armals to march to the Yucatan and begin a sweep. The only Federate Ship in the Gulf, which was also the only ship on that coastline, the Sheerfast, was a light destroyer and admediately disembarked to Cancun. It would, under the cloak of darkness, unleash its entire supply of gun power onto the city, hopefully killing the moral of the supports of the Confederacy.

The Second Federate Armal made its way to Yucatan and faced little resistance until reaching Mayason, a massive architectural center where the Mayan Empire was ruled by in the northern regions. "And thus, the war for the Yucatan begins." Noted Presiddente Marique once gaining the word of their arrival. "This time, not by Cortez, but by Marique." He said with victory in his voice. Japan, and soon to be Germany, was supporting his effort, and he was to push the Yucatan into a forced labor nation once reuniting into the Federation, and that would push Mexico's economic ability through the roof.

Oil sales to European countries also began to boost the war effort as more british-originated rifles were being bought from Swiss Cartels in South America. More and more Mexicans enlisted to help put down the revolt, and with that need to supply, came more jobs and more demand for pre-made goods such as rifles and other vehicles.

The revolt, if anything, was preparing Mexico for the worst of its expansionist dreams. As soon as the Confederacy of the Yucatana would fall, so would the expansion into Cntral America, begining with Honduras and El Salvador, and everyone, including those in Europe and the United States, knew it.

Official reply of the United States of America,

To the Mexican Government:
This brokering of alliances among obviously aggressive and war-mongering foreign nations is unacceptable. Imperialism and expansionism in the direction of Panama is also, unacceptable. As the Mexican government is aware, the United States maintains a garrison and naval and air bases at Panama. Any source of aggression within 150 miles of the country will be seen as a direct threat to the United States of America and will be responded to under the Monroe documents.

Further, we remind Mexico that stirring up war in North America and accepting foreign armies is another direct threat to American policy.

OOC: Erm, one question: How do you know that me and Japan are making these agreements besides the fact of the naval fleet, which he could be sending to further aid my stability. I have no signs of expansionism nor imperialism, so all your comments are null and void unless you want to look like a paranoid politican jumping the gun of something that just may never happen. Everything that is happening is mostly even being covered up to the public too, so how exactly does the United States, now suffering a massive depression and its own problems with Japan, watching its weaker and less-stable country to the south?
