The '''People's Occupation''' was an [[insurrectionist]] organization based on [[Reach]] that sought independence from the [[Unified Earth Government]]. One of the leading positions in the group was that of vice counselor, held by [[Nemesio Briet]] as of [[2526#March|March 2526]]. The group was affiliated with the [[United Rebel Front]].<ref name="hss94"/> | |||

==History== | |||
Having been recently established in [[2487]], the People's Occupation and the [[Secessionist Union]] submitted formal requests on the behalf of a dozen worlds, demanding sovereignty from the [[Unified Earth Government]]. The UEG denied both groups' requests, leading to rising tensions and increased violence among the [[Outer Colonies]].<ref name="mythos"/> | |||
On [[2526#March|March 12, 2526]], Vice Counselor [[Nemesio Briet]] of the People's Occupation met with leaders of various rebel cells in the [[Grenadi sector]] to discuss the emerging [[Covenant]] [[Human-Covenant War|threat]]. Briet argued that the insurgents should allow the Covenant to cripple the Unified Earth Government, even offering the Covenant coordinates to [[Earth]] as a peace offering.<ref name="hss94"/> Before the discovery of Covenant forces on Reach in [[2552#August|August 2552]], the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] suspected the ultra-radical wing of the organization was responsible for the communications blackout at [[Visegrád Relay]], and asked [[Vice Admiral]] [[Michael Stanforth]] to return to Reach to deal with the problem.<ref name="DDR2">[[Data Drop/DDR2|Data Drop: ''DUE DILLIGENCE REPORT – A340021 (2)'']]</ref> | |||
