The small Adomme Empire has been rummaging through unclaimed lands trying to build a great colonial power by claiming and conquering small islands throughout the ocean. One of these conquered lands is Braxton Island which is one of the bigger plots of land conquered by the nation. As usual with the colonial doctrine of Adomme if the land is suitable for crops it is turned into a plantation and the local populace is turned into low paid farmhands. This has worked fine on most islands but on Braxton trouble is stirring. Braxton Island has been used for sugar cane production and the local tribe the Drawak have easily assimilated into being workers for the plantation that is until two days ago.
A lunatic local Drawak Shaman by the name of Samuel Tomlo has rallied a large group of Drawak into rebelling against the colonial government. Tomlo and his followers have burned down two plantations and killed 5 Adomme citizens using machetes and farming tools. The remaining plantations have called for help with the colony being hundreds of miles away from Adomme and a colonial garrison of just 50, Adomme has called upon the International Community to crush the uprising. In return for restoring the status quo, the Adomme government will reimburse the cost of the invasion and open up a special trading agreement with any nation willing to help.
The Druben Plantation burning in the distance
[spoiler=Facts about the Uprising and Rules]Background and Current Status: The Drawak which number about 4,000 or about 80 percent of the population on Braxton were easily assimilated into the plantation cycle and have been under the control of Adomme for 81 years. They were allowed to keep their religion due to the peaceful nature of the assimilation. However, Samuel Tomlo the shaman over Drawak has been speaking of visions of freedom from working the plantations and with secret meetings at night with some other tribal members has influenced a good many of the Drawak to finally oppose the Adomme. Most of the farmhands at the Druben Plantation revolted after hearing of talks about lowering pay to the already underpaid men.
Workers at the Druben Plantation before uprising
They were easily able to overrun the place and burn it down and after hearing the battle the Union Plantation next door was burned down by its workers. As of October 7th, the uprising has been just contained to the western region of the island numbering around 200 workers (now called Tomlo's Men). Currently, Tomlo's Men are laying siege to the Young House Plantation with its owner and loyal Drawak holding off the rebels. The colonial garrison lead by Captain James West has fortified the capital of the island, Port Braxton, from any uprisings that may occur in the town. In addition, a colonial militia has been raised of about 100 men to go relieve the besieged house.
