Hurian Genocide of 1973

The Hurian Genocide of 1973 was a War Council-sanctioned mass murder of traitors, dissentents, homosexuals, atheists, pacifists, democratic supporters, and government reformers, and generally anyone believed to be a threat to the security and "purity of the state" by the people of the Hurian Federation. It is known best as the Invisible War for the fact that the entire event was and today is still unknown to the outside world. The Bureau of Internal Investigation kept the entire thing a secret, managing to prevent news of deaths from leaving the country, and performing their job to such a degree that is managed to track down and kill anyone who attempted to spread the word of it. Today, the genocide is viewed by Hurians with pride in "cleansing the nation of disease". The Supreme Commander at the time, Rollace Williams was in a coma throughout the genocide, and came to some months after. Known simply as "the Work", no one is able to understand what the term means, or why so many Hurians who partook are proud of it. Anyone who spoke out against the government were at the end, either dead or in custody. It is believed by the Bureau that some 500,000 to 1 million people were killed in the genocide.
