Events
Early February
In early February, there were isolated incidents of roadblocks in Robloxia, although no major nationwide protests took place. On February 3rd, Progressives blocked roads near Corporatist prisons after reports of the mistreatment of prisoners, including party chairman John Puma, who was considered a political prisoner. Another protest took place from February 7 to 10, when farmers in central Robloxia blocked Interbloxes, demanding an end to Corporatist economic policies detrimental to their interests. The most significant blockades occurred on Interblox 21, Interblox 28, Interblox 52, Interblox 80, and smaller roads.
"Block the Roads to Fascism" campaign
Announcement and beginning
The campaign was officially announced on February 14 by the Progressive Party board, which encouraged everyone able to participate, noting that anyone willing was welcome. That afternoon, protesters with slogans like "Baszucki out" and "Free John Puma" blocked Interblox 65 near Sacramento. The following day, the campaign escalated. Additionally, the Committee for the Defense of Democracy, the Independent Party, the Robloxian Reform Party, Save Bloxburg!, many other parties and organizations and individuals supported the campaign.
February 15
On the morning of February 15, all major Interbloxes were blocked. Supporters of other political groups opposed to the Corporatists, as well as independent citizens, joined the protesters. Farmers supported the protest, using tractors to block numerous regional roads. Many Interbloxes on the east-west route were blocked, limiting access between the two regions. The most severely blocked areas were Interblox 21, Interblox 42, Interblox 75, and Interblox 80. The Corporatists attempted to address the problem and deployed police to break up the blockades in some areas, but were unsuccessful. A network of detours was created. However, travel times were significantly longer, as the detours in central Robloxia led through rural and poorly maintained roads, which farmers were easily able to block. In the east and west, however, the detours led through the suburbs, causing significant traffic jams. Publicly, a government spokesman called the action "sabotage" and "an act of espionage for foreign powers". He labeled the protesters "traitors to the homeland". This sparked numerous criticism. Many cities and protest sites reacted hostilely. A press conference was held in Robloxia City that evening, during which the government spokesman was publicly booed, and the conference was interrupted.
February 16
That day, the number of roadblocks increased. Traffic jams became unbearable, and the government began to lose control of the situation. Federal troops were dispatched and managed to clear protesters from several sections of Interblox 21, Interblox 56, Interblox 65, and Interblox 80. That day, charitable aid began pouring in from many states and even abroad for the protesters. Organizations raised money to provide food for the robloxians who had been protesting for days. Additionally, that day, the Robloxian Reform Party and the Progressive Party held a rally at the intersection of Interblox 21 and Interblox 79 in Amberville, where politicians addressed the protesters. The rally was broadcast to many other protesters. During the rally, politicians from both parties expressed their desire to restore freedom to many robloxians and encouraged the public to be even more persistent.
February 17
On February 17, taxi drivers and truckers joined the road protesters, blocking roads in cities. Railroad workers declared a general strike in dozens of states, delaying trains. Consequently, the government increasingly lost control. In many cities, representatives of numerous other unions took to the streets. Factory workers announced production stoppages. Some companies supported the strikes, while others turned to the Corporatists. In Bloxburg, Greenville, Livetopia, Pacifico, Ro Austin, and Robloxia City, federal troops and the military were called in to maintain order. In Bloxburg, Mayor Lina Rivers protested and demanded the government withdraw the army. Military commanders themselves chose to ignore orders from the general staff to continue operations and withdrew. In the remaining cities, however, military vehicles and even tanks took to the streets. In all of them, crowds stopped them, running in front of them and preventing them from moving. Additionally, the number of roadblocks continued to increase. Only the blockade of the Interbloxes sections near the border with Bloxanada and Bloxico was abandoned to allow refugees from the Corporatist regime to leave. Furthermore, keeping these sections clear allowed for food to be smuggled across the border for protesters.
February 18
By February 18, almost all major roads in the country were blocked. The railways were also out of service. The population was beginning to rebel. In Bloxburg Valley, citizens disarmed the Corporatist forces. In Santa Fe, anti-Corporatist activists ceremonially declared independence for the Coffee-Stained Republic. Similar separatist declarations were also made in Bloxas, Bloxington Island, Bloxwaii, Eastern Robloxia, Kionne Republic, Romont, and Rossota. Although they had little impact on the actual situation, the Corporatists controlled only military bases and cities. Air travel became the only practical means of transportation. In the afternoon, the government declared a nationwide state of emergency, and tanks rolled out onto the streets in many cities still under Corporatist control.
February 19
On February 19, the stock market crashed across Robloxia. A small group of entrepreneurs stormed the Corporatist Party headquarters and glued themselves to the floor in protest. The government itself dismissed its spokesman and appointed a new one. By mid-day, a statement was issued urging protesters to return home. Most of them disobeyed. Chaos reigned across the country among law enforcement. Some sided with the Corporatists, while others voluntarily submitted to the orders of the separatists or opposition local governments. Still others chose to remain passive, effectively supporting the opposition. That same day, near Pacifico on Interblox 42, activists from across the opposition organized an anti-government rally. At the activists' call at 6:21 PM, most of the blockaders exited their vehicles and, for fifteen minutes, joined hands, forming a human chain thousands of kilometers long. The hour of action referenced the year of the fall of the Korbloxian Empire. The chain ran through Interblox 42 and Interblox 21, with branches running through local Interbloxes to the west. Smaller chains were also established across the country. Throughout the day, the separatists made significant progress, taking over more and more territory, with the greatest advances seen in Bloxburg Valley, Eastern Robloxia, and South Bloxlina.
February 20
On February 20, the situation drastically escalated. Corporatists sent federal troops and police to clear roads in Central Robloxia and prepare to take control of the situation. Upon reaching Interblox 21 and Interblox 81, the troops decided to join the protesters. Consequently, Corporatists dispatched troops to the Rokadia area, where the two roads converge. Clashes erupted between the military and police rebel forces. More than a dozen soldiers and several civilians were killed. Clashes also broke out in Eastern Robloxia and South Bloxlina, where Corporatists attempted to suppress guerrilla uprisings. Meanwhile, in the western and central regions, news of the clashes in Rokadia led crowds to improvise and disarm Corporatist forces and form their own militias to prevent further civilian deaths at the hands of government supporters. That same day, government troops launched an offensive in Rossota, breaking through to besieged Lillewell. Several civilians were killed in the operation, sparking riots. The Corporatists brutally suppressed them, contributing to the deaths of more civilians. Consequently, unrest erupted across the country. Government troops in Bloxburg Valley surrendered after meetings between their commanders and Lina Rivers, and the lands they had previously occupied were taken over by Bloxburg Valley militias, which were being formed at the time to protect local towns from both Corporatists and Coffee-Stained Republic supporters. In the evening, clashes broke out on the borders of Roregon and North Bloxifornia, where Corporatists attempted to break through from their bases in Roregon to Blackville. Columns of tanks were stopped crowds of civilians. Consequently, infantry were sent in, though they were helpless, with some soldiers fleeing and deserting.
February 21
On February 21, Interblox 82, Interblox 666, and roads in Rolaska reopened following government offensives that displaced most of the protesters. Meanwhile, fighting intensified across the country. In the east, a stalemate developed between Corporatists, protesters, and separatists. Fighting broke out in Bloxas between the military and civilian militias. Similar fighting erupted in various locations across the west of the country, where scattered government forces attempted to attack militias. That day, an attempted mutiny also occurred in Santana. Civilians disarmed several units and attempted to storm the town hall, but were thwarted. Several rebels were killed in the fighting. The rest decided to surrender or flee to the mountains and fight as guerrillas. Meanwhile, on Bloxwaii, government forces managed to reach a consensus with the rebels, and the situation returned to normal. On Bloxington Island, a naval landing attempt was made with the help of local Corporatist supporters, but state troops repelled the attack. Increased military activity was observed throughout the area occupied by troops loyal to the government.
February 22
On that day, the Robloxia government officially declared martial law nationwide. The military took to the streets in Corporatist-controlled areas. Additionally, the army attempted an offensive across Robloxia, with varying results depending on the region. Schools were closed, curfews were imposed, and civil rights violations were justified. Unrest erupted across the country, although the military partially quelled it.
February 23
Unrest broke out across the country due to martial law. Corporatists decided to focus on gaining as much control as possible over the areas they occupied. Opposition figures were arrested, rounded up, and purged. The military attacked the headquarters of other political parties and television towers controlled by broadcasting companies hostile to the government. Clashes between joint police and military forces and local separatists or militias soon erupted. Supportive rallies for the rebels erupted across the country, and unrest in Corporatist-controlled areas increased. Protests broke out in New Blockers City. The military was deployed to end the protests. This provided a pretext for riots in Roalbany. The military brutally restored order, resulting in the deaths of more than a dozen citizens.
February 24
That day, clashes between Corporatists and separatists intensified. In the morning, a battle broke out between separatists from Rossota and the military. The battle remained inconclusive. Massive reinforcements were dispatched at noon. The military massacred the separatists, followed by the peaceful protesters. Volunteer militia from South Dabloxa soon arrived and engaged the military in battle. Despite heavy losses on both sides, the militia forced the military to withdraw. Meanwhile, separatists from Livetopia surrounded the city and routed the army in battle. Meanwhile, militias in central Robloxia launched an offensive and forced the Corporatists to surrender. Meanwhile, their forces in the west continued to surrender to the militias. Meanwhile, the navy on Telamon Ocean declared neutrality. Meanwhile, political repression continued on the East Coast.
February 25
On February 25, the militias reorganized, creating a viable military structure capable of combating the Corporatists. At the same time, the militias launched a coastal offensive in Bloxas, besieging troops near the border with Bloxico. There was also an unsuccessful offensive on Santana. Separatists also fought, primarily in the East Robloxia and South Bloxlina regions. Meanwhile, in Kent Hill, separatists from Rossota formed an alliance with militias, which were also forming across the state. Riots also occurred that day in Anchburg and Retropolis, and protests in Roalbany. All were suppressed by force, resulting in further civilian casualties.
February 26
On February 26, at a gathering of militia representatives from across the country in Davis Springs, the Robloxian Citizen Militia was formed as a nationwide militia composed of combined anti-government militias. That same day, the militias launched offensives, capturing the last remaining Corporatist outposts in the west and east of the country, with the exception of those in Bloxas, New Bloxico, Rolaska, and Rossota, as well as those in the overseas territories. That same day, the Telamon Islands provided significant support to the organization, sending significant financial and material support. Reports suggest that the Telamon Islands also sent officers to provide military training for the militia. That same day, the Progressive Party sued the government, accusing it of, among other things, a coup d'état, constitutional violations, robloxian rights violations, complicity in the killing of civilians, arrests of innocent people, and much more. The trial was eagerly awaited across the country, and there was concern about whether the verdict would be the same as in the earlier case of Julian Jefferson.
February 27
That day, the Robloxian Citizen Militia carried out a series of attacks on government-held territory known as Operation Dust. These included blowing up railway lines, creating roadblocks, forming guerrilla units, and destroying military infrastructure. The most significant attacks were carried out in Rossota, Wisconsin, and Bloxuisiana. This was an attempt to prevent reinforcements from reaching Corporatist forces in Bloxas and Rossota. Meanwhile, the Corporatists managed to mobilize more strongly and launched an offensive along Interblox 10, linking up with forces in New Bloxico. Riots also broke out in several cities that day, with the most notable being in Ro Dover.
February 28
There were no major operations that day, although the Corporatists continued to deliver supplies to New Bloxico. Additionally, riots broke out in several cities on the East Coast. Minor shifts occurred on the central flank, though these were mostly shoving matches, and neither side launched a major offensive.
March 1
The Robloxian Citizen Militia decided to attempt to break the government's control of Interblox 10. This led to the Battle of Migeville, during which the militia failed to defeat the Corporatists. The situation remained unchanged. However, on the same day, the Livetopia Liberation Armed Forces occupied Livetopia and declared South Bloxlina an independent state. Consequently, more Corporatist forces concentrated in the southeast.

*Coming soon*
March 5
With the Safer Marketplace Executive Order being passed while the protest was ongoing, focus shifted less towards the roadblocks and more towards the Great Robloxia Clothing Industry Strike, Picket, and Boycott of 2026, which was planned to occur two weeks after the executive order was announced.
