Martyr Aka Talapu Brigade

The Martyr Aka Talapu Brigade (MATB) is an ethnically Xallic, Tamarist and Republican group based in the Southern Mountains of the Central Mountainous State, the Martyr Aka Talapu Brigade is a current participant in the Central Mountains Civil War. It is debatably a puppet group of the Xallic New State Army. It is the official military of the unrecognised Autonomous Government of the Southern Mountains.

Name
The Martyr Aka Talapu Brigade is named after the final speaker of a South Xallic language, Aka Talapu, a historical Xallic Revolutionary and republican, who was shot during the Źovari Revolution.

History
The MATB was formed in 11991, supported by the Xallic Democratic Republic, and held a large scale revolt during protests in 11992, which led to the Central Mountains Civil War. It quickly overran several ethnic Xallic settlements in the West of the country, primarily Javar, which has now become the administrative centre of Xallic opposition to the government. The MATB has since waged a guerrilla war against the government, with huge casualties to the government. The MATB has also been in conflict with the anti-Tamarist Xallic Revival Front.
