Genocide
The Welsh are of Celts who inhabit the Northern parts of Dovani. Until recently there was a large Welsh presence in Dranland. they were represented by Plaid Gyfreithiol Cymru who held power in the nation for decades. The party eventually walked out of the Dranian Parliament in protest at New Theta tactics and disbanded.

Within days of the PGC disbanding the Welsh-Dranian city of Mynydd Mawr was bulldozed leaving tens of thousands dead under the rubble. The government blamed over-enthusiastic revellers but subsequent events casts serious doubt on their version of events.

Hundreds of thousands of Mynydd Mawr inhabitants fled Dranland in fear. While it was reported that some crossed the Border Range to try and rejoin the Eastern Welsh the vast majority entered Gishoto where refugee camps were erected in the region of Hulstria. From those camps emerged the Refuge Pressure Party which, like the PGC before it, quickly stormed into power.

The Welsh who remained in Dranland however were still struggling for survival. Tales of systematic beatings and murders by the military were common and in 2311 the Dranian Government, without Parliamentary autharisation, launched Operation Ethnic Cleanse onto Mynydd Mawr. An estimated 50,000 Welsh-Dranians were killed during one night of carpet bombings. The international community criticized Dranland but the government seemed infazed.

An attempt by the Gishoto based Creative Young Multinational Redevelopment Unit tried to bring back some Welsh influence to the area by building an enourmous toruist complex which for several years filled with Welsh-Gishotans. By this time however the opposition parties in Dranland were proposing military action against Gishoto in an attempt to kill the Welsh refugees. Gishoto got wind of the debate and asked it's Axis allies for support. Axis military assets moved into Gishoto as a defensive action.

In March 2326 the Er Cof am Gymru toruist resoprt in Mynydd Mawr exploded in what was reported to be a nuclear explosion. Dranland and Gishoto moved closer to war as the Gishoto government accused the Dranians of slaughtering their citizens in Mynydd Mawr. War was averted when the citizens of Dranland ousted their government. This did not occur however until after the Dranian government had expelled all Welsh from the country and formed concentration camps where Welsh prisoners were reportedly systematically executed.

With Dranland now in the hands of the facist Capitalist Zealotry League there are fears that the Welsh-Dranians who survived the first two attacks may suffer yet another.
