January 2009 - The Kraven Corporation now holds Slovenia within its grasp, The nation is renamed, and the old cities of Slovenia are demolished and a new Utopia is constructed with Fathers guidance, named Kravonika it houses all of the nations population, for ease of policing and propaganda.

February 2009 - The Secret Police is set up, and various “Education Camps” are built across the city, The Secret Police begin a series of Brutal re-education campaigns in which thousands of civilians were sent to Education Camps, Civilians sent to the camps are executed and buried in unmarked mass graves.

February 2009 - Beings the Reign of Tyranny over Kravonika, Propaganda is everywhere and massive campaigns of brainwashing begins, the population soon loose the will to fight back and for a time things are quiet in Kravonika, However the Secret Police continue their Re - Education Campaigns, but on a much smaller level.

March 2009 - Civilians are re-classified as Citizens or Thought Criminals, New Kraven Civil Law Doctrines are brought into effect in the same month, Citizens are urged to inform on friends and relatives suspected of being thought criminals, and so begins the month of “The Thousand Flames“, where thousands are sent to their deaths by friends and relatives who believe them to be thought Criminals.

March 2009 - June 2020 , Largely a very peaceful period for The Kraven Corporation, Father makes money by selling exports made within Kravonika, which he uses to fund the development of new technologies, the Development of the “Sardaukar Phase 1” begins, and Capitol Police production is brought onto a Factory level, volunteers are asked for by The Secret Police, to join the Governments breeding programme, The Secret Police choose those suitable for breeding, and turn the others away, some are executed, deemed unworthy for society.

June 2020 - Mini Miehm Assaults manchillian facility, after several of the species "Slivers" are captured for testing, Sardaukar Phase 1's are tested at this point, but prove ineffective and the facility is quickly destroyed by the Sliver Assault, First loss of a Manchillian Facility, At the same time, a Massive war errupts over the Territory known as Numonica, Nations involved ignored the Corporations blitzkrieg right into the centre of the city, until it was too late and The Corporation gained a foot hold that it remains hold of to this day, it must be noted that Mini Miehm at this point was an Ally of the Corporation, but later switched sides after discovering Kraven attrocities against Numonican Citizens

July 2020 - The Secret Police Purge of 2020, A massive Civilian uprising begins, rumours had been circulating of civil unrest for months but The Secret Police did nothing to prevent civilians obtaining weaponry and taking up arms against the Corporation, The Capitol Police spend a week executing any Reichmarshal or Kreigsmarine they could find, only one was spared a Now Infamous Reichmarshal by the name of Helghan, he foresaw the Uprising and had the Capitol Police execute any Civilian outside after a certain time, (this later became known as “Helghan’s Curfew” ) Helghan was spared by Father for doing an outstanding job and was promoted to Master Reichmarshal of the Secret Police.

Followed after The Secret Police recruitment drive was months of Brutal executions and tortures, giving The Kraven Secret Police an infamous reputation, The Secret Police Rename The "Education Camps" To "Extermination Camps"

June 2025 - Kraven battle fleet Blockades the port of Concremo, Concremo soon becomes hostile towards The Corporation but after a quick and decisive victory by The Kraven battle fleet, Concremo soon becomes a strong Ally of the Corporation, ( It must be noted that Concremo was an immediate neighbour, and the reason for the blockade was suspicion that Concremo was giving civilians weaponry, it later became aparant that it wasn’t Concremo, but Kahanistan.)

December 2026 - Kraven forces are sent to aid Dyelli Bybi in operations in southern Klatch, however a Civil war breaks out in Kravonika, started by the Imperial Guard and a former soldier of Concremo, all Capitol Police forces are withdrawn and return to put down all resistance, Capitol Police are successful and become The Corporations full standing army.

January 2027 - Invasion of The Blood Moon Goblins begin, Concremo chooses to aid The Goblins against the Corporations aggression, but soon switches sides after The First Battlefleet blockades the Concreminian ports again, The Invasion is abandoned after it becomes apparent that the Goblin territory is devoid of any valuable resources.

March 2027 - Series of mass Executions take place, but during this time, Concremo begins executing religious worshippers, causing international out cry, many fleets arrive to give humanitarian aid to the Religious groups, however Kraven becomes paranoid and deploys all ships available to the navy at the time, with numbered over 3,000 vessels, The Naval fleets that are present soon withdraw without firing a shot after seeing Kraven’s vulgar display of Naval power


April 2027 – The abortive Quíkzötic Imperial Revolt is in its terminal phase in the nation of Xirnium. Then Emperor, Quíkzös IV, who is desperate to stave of imminent defeat, formulates a desperate plan to obtain nuclear weaponry for use against the inexorable Parliamentary loyalists - resolving even to sell into slavery captured Xirniumites in order to achieve his nefarious ends. Father recognises an opportunity to acquire thousands of slaves for the mines of Cydonia (that had opened just after Father took power), however, the golden opportunity to easily acquire females for the Capitol Police programme proves too much, and Father increases his demands for slaves from one hundred thousand to four point five million Xirniumite Citizens. The Quíkzötic imperial rebels do not have anywhere near such large quantities of captured loyalists, and therefore cannot provide their tribute to Kraven. Thus, the Corporation moved to war, the First battle fleet was dispatched and quickly Xirniumite soldiers were engaged, after Xirnium had used a nuclear weapon on a Kraven facility that was being built on Xirnium Soil.

May 2027 - The Kraven - Xirnium War was now in full swing, with Yallak forces clashing with the Kraven navy, but still Kraven forces managed to make it to shore, a large contingent of Kahanistan soldiers clashed with Capitol Police instilling heavy losses against both sides, however, The Yallak fleet caused a devastating blow against the First Battle fleet of the Kraven Navy and so was forced to abandon the attack, the forces on shore were left to the mercy of Xirnium, Yallak and Kahanistan, the resulting combined attack crushed The Kraven Beachhead, causing The Corporation to loose around 200,000 - 500,000 thousand Capitol Police and Sardaukar

June 2027 - Manchillian Science Group begins researching Inter-dimensional Black Hole Technology, Contact lost with Manchillian Facilities, Manchillian Science Group ceases to Exist on this date, Reason Unknown…


July 2027 - The AKA is formed and prepares for an all out invasion of Kravonika

July 2027 - Xirnium Government launches a raid on what is believed to be a Kraven facility, but turns out to be an immense factory for the production of Capitol Police. The squad gains entry during the confusion of sporadic bombing runs made by a newly formed Anti Kraven Alliance, formed shortly after the Invasion of Xirnum, The squad is killed inside the facility, but was allowed to broadcast the procedure required to produce Capitol Police, The International Community is now aware of the True Nature of The Capitol Police, and the True Horror of The Corporation…

August 2027 - The AKA launches its attack, but the planning is poor, with each nation launching its own air attack, the attacks are sporadic and poorly co-ordinated, the Superior Air Defences of Kraven down hundreds of air craft and the AKA attacks fail before any real damage is done, Kraven engineer teams quickly repair the damage and Kravonika is fully operational in one week. (Father also escapes and takes refuge in Axis Nova’s computer network, where he is hidden for many years, only to remerge in the resurgence of The Kraven Menace)

August 2027 - Automagfreek pledges its moral support to The Kraven Cause, Father realises the opportunity and quickly draws Damien Dreadfire into the Anti Kraven War, with the promise of vast tracts of land and resources, Kraven now prepares to use Damien Dreadfire and the Freek War Machine as a Military Sledgehammer.

September 2027 - Father launches invasion of Kahanistan, giving orders to Damien Dreadfire and the rest of “Kraven’s Consortium of Nations” that Kahanistan is to be exterminated as an example to all those who oppose Kraven’s Regime and its Doctrine of Absolute Unification, Dreadfires son, Azrael launches a blitzkreig into the heart of Nadjar, the Capitol of Kahanistan, destroying all and levelling dozens of towns and cities into nothing more than rubble, thousands of Kahanistani citizens are impaled on large spikes and left to rot in the sun, The World feels Kraven’s wrath during this Campaign…

September 2027 - During the last weeks of Kahanistans Extermination, Dreadfire offers Kahanistan a peaceful settlement and is spared the Extermination, Father sends Helghan and a large force of Sardaukar Terror Troopers to force Azrael and Dreadfire to complete the Campaign, however during negotiations it becomes aparant that Father is using Automagfreek, Damien Dreadfire and Azrael as Military Jackhammers and for nothing more, Azrael orders Helghan to leave, at which point Helghan, infuriated by Azraels lack of respect, orders the Sardaukar to open fire on the Sentinels present in the Kahanistani Capitol.

Azraels Sentinals prove to be more nimble, and highly manoeuvrable compared to the slow, clumsy, but extremely resilient Sardaukar, after several hours of intense fire fighting, Helghan’s force is destroyed, However during the confusion, Helghan escaped the Capitol and returned to Kravonika in his personal Jet, at the same time, a fleet of vessels that Dreadfire had sent to aid Kraven, (under the Command of Vidimir Breathstealer) began to bombard the Citadel wall that protected Kravonika from attack… thus started the Second Kraven Wars.


September 2027 - November 2029 The Kraven Automagfreek War

The Corporation mobilises, four battalions within Kravonika to meet the forces of Automagfreek, the Fleet of Vidimir Breathstealer continue to bombard the Citadel wall, at which point the defences around Kravonika open fire, letting loose a torrent of shells into the Automagfreek fleet, The Massive CDB’s (or Coastal Deterrent batteries, 2,500mm naval guns, designed to intimidate fleets that get too close) Open fire, but their inherent uselessness becomes apparent and the guns of Automagfreek soon silence the behemoths.

Within mere hours of the attack on the Citadel beginning, the Sentinals of Vidimir, storm onto the shore, striking the defences of Kraven like a well aimed chisel, however the Corporations defences are extremely well built and well placed, meeting the Sentinals head on with artillery fire, flamethrowers, and an assortment of mortars, various forms of mines have been laid across the beach, along with razor wire and other man traps, however The Sentinals sense of purpose and will to fight prevail and they break through the first line of defences, causing Kraven to use some of its most deadly arsenal, The Three Stage Bioweapon, within minutes Kraven has felled the first wave of Sentinals, killing one hundred thousand in one fell swoop, it has been noted that this is the most that have ever been killed in one go, it did however give Kraven enough time to reinforce the second line, and repair some damages, Automagfreek also began a massive air campaign around the same time the ground attack started, striking targets within the city simultaneously as the ground forces struck the walls. (it must be noted that Automagfreek bombarded the city with Anthrax attacks, this did not slow the war machine down however, and The High Command was unconcerned with civilian losses)

Later on in the Campaign, Damien Dreadfire infuriated by the Biological attack arrives with his own personal fleet, launching a second front in North Western Kraven, the forces here are light, and only a small garrison is present, soon Dreadfires forces over run the defences, and avoid a trap of C12 laid just behind the defensive line, at the same time a massive armoured battalion makes its way from Northen Kravonika, (Vidimir’s attack is happening in Southern Kravonika) but meets heavy Cruise missile strikes from Dreadfires personal Fleet, resulting in heavy losses, when the forces eventually arrive, its nothing more than a piece meal gesture of defiance.

In the last days of the Kraven - Automagfreek war, Panzer Oberst Lorn can now see that the war is lost, and quickly orders all Capitol Police to stand down, only weeks before this happened Azrael had taken the small island off the coast of Kraven and used it as a base of operations to springboard into Kravonika, All Capitol Police stand down and the end of the Kraven Regime has begun.
