Political Violence Escalates into Civil War

The recent march saw further violence between the Blackshirts and their communist and socialist counter-protesters. However, this violence was not contained there. Like a spark, it has served to ignite the increasingly tense situation that has existed in our nation these past months. All throughout the country militias have begun to clash, seizing control over cities and towns and their local areas, forcing the military to make a choice of allegiance. While the Dominions and the navy still wholly supports what they call the 'legitimate' democratic government, the situation in the army is much less clear-cut, and many units have joined our cause. As the frontlines begin to form, Oswald Mosley has announced the formation of an interim crisis government under his leadership. This will handle the essentials until the end of this civil war.
