Operation Concordia, also known as the 2200 Alecton rebellion, was a military operation performed by the Larrean Armed Forces against a rebelling division of the Alectonese Home Guard. Thought to have been in collaboration with the terrorist Thallas Battalion group, the rebellion started due to ultranationalist cells within the Alectonese Home Guard gaining control of local air force and army bases within north Alecton on the morning of November 30th on Larrean unification day. Numbering around 5 battalions of soldiers totalling 5000 men, 20 armored platoons and 100 various aircraft, it was the largest hostile military uprising on the Forsetti peninsula since the civil war. The rebellion was ended one week later, after the central government assembled a combined task force of all Larrean military divisions under the name Concordia, showcasing the first time combined arms warfare was carried out outside of training exercises.
It is now believed that this hijacking was performed by the Thallas Battalion, and that the masked figure speaking was their leader known as the Allfather. It is now also believed that the rebellion was planned ahead of time, with many making a connection to the disappearance of a Larrean Navy destroyer near the arctic only days before. Since the incident is still classified, it is not publicly known whether or not the government knew of the attacks prior to the 30th.

Timeline
November 30th
The attack started at 9 PM with the hijacking of multiple TV stations, each broadcasting the same video; A masked man sitting at a desk with the caliphate flag behind him. The broadcast proclaimed the following: "Good morning patriots. As we enlightened ones know, the Larrean government is a fascist dictatorship run by a corrupt puppet controlled by corporations. The people have lost their morality and are straying away from Thallas (God). Our ancestral lands beyond our borders are controlled by foreign governments and must be liberated. On this day, 30 years ago, our dream of a caliphate united under the holy law of Thallas was destroyed by the demonic vermin of Delras. Our dream lived on however. Today, we reject the control of the devil. We will show our devotion to Him, and we will build our kingdom. So i proclaim to you, rise up, so we can build our kingdom in heaven and join our ancestors who went through the portal so many years ago. Thallas Vincit Omnia"
After the broadcast finished, reports of explosions emerged all over northern Alecton. Government and other federal offices were targeted and all interstate units stationed nearby were captured. The Rebels, who by now were referring to themselves as *"the caliphate"*, had effectively cut the northern province of Alecton off from the rest of the republic by the afternoon. Come evening, a press release was issued by the central government in New Forsetia stating that the rebellion will be dealt with swiftly.
