Description

On YC110.06.10, as news broke of the invasion of the Gallente Federation's Luminaire system and assault on Caldari Prime by State forces, anti-Gallente rioting spread across the Caldari State. While most incidents resulted in relatively few casualties, the riots in the underground industrial colonies of Urlen II resulted in the deaths of at least 1,000 State citizens, the vast majority of whom were members of the ethnic Gallente communities on that world.

At the time, conflicting reports included the claim that Gallente partisans had risen up on Urlen II in reaction to the invasion of Luminaire. In the chaos of YC110, with open warfare between the empires of New Eden, the true nature of the riots remained obscure for years. Further investigations were only carried out by order of the Chief Executive Panel following the fall from power of Tibus Heth and his Caldari Providence Directorate or "Provist" regime in YC115. Despite attempts at a cover up by the Provist regime, it became amply clear from evidence and testimony that the Urlen II riots, like others at the time, had been instigated by Provist paramilitaries and their terrorist allies in the Templis Dragonaurs movement.

While the enormity of Tibus Heth's crimes against the Caldari State went far beyond the tragedy of Urlen II, in the course of reasserting the old corporate system, the megacorporations of the CEP were concerned to emphasize that the ethnic persecution and terrorism against citizens of the Caldari State practised by the Provists would not be tolerated. To that end, the CEP published the results of the investigation for all citizens to read and commissioned a memorial to those who lost their lives in the Urlen II Provist Riots.

In memory of those State citizens who lost their lives in the tragedy of Urlen II at the hands of terrorists directed by the outlaw and criminal Tibus Heth. Let us never again forget that the Caldari State is for all who live by the corporate ideal and follow the Caldari Way. ? Chief Executive Panel of the Caldari State
