The New Year's Attacks, described in my debut, a series of terrorist attacks and amok runs by the Green Dawn aimed at the city and population of Trento. They were eventually stopped by joint law enforcement and military efforts.

The beginning of the war I mentioned yesterday was notable for the fact that the opposing commanders were father and son. Their wife/mother disappeared soon after the two had their final clash, which launched A LOT of speculation.
