History
After Doomsday, India took a turn for the worse. With a massive drop-off in food imports, and fertilizers, a food shortage began to occur. Civil unrest, already at a high before Doomsday, became worse and worse. Crackdowns occurred against the rioters, and rebels, who in the state of unrest held more support than they had had previously. One of these crackdowns, against Sikh militants operating out of the Golden Temple in Amritsar, was controversial, but the activities of the militants meant it had to occur.

It proved a bad decision. The Sikh bodyguards of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi took offense to it, as did many Sikhs, and assassinated her. Rebellion erupted in the Sikh state of Khalistan, alongside massive dissent, resignations, and mutiny in both the civil service and the army. Elements of the army went over to the rebels as well. Taking advantage of the situation, the Maoist and Nationalist insurgents in the east took up arms. Both the eastern rebels and the Sikh rebels proved very successful, something which militants in the south readily noticed and took advantage of, adding to the problem. To top it all off, Pakistan took advantage of the situation, and invaded Kashmir, securing it. Other nationalities elsewhere rose up as well, which was added to by refugees, making the problem worse.

Between all of these activities, the army lost control of the situation. Their equipment, for the most part, was damaged or destroyed. Other states, loyal up to this point, isolated themselves from the entire matter and declared themselves independant, leaving the rump government in charge of only a few of the states.

Yet, most did not want it that way in the long-term. In the end, the rump government, the majority of the states which had isolated themselves form the troubles, and a few of the nationalities, made an agreement in 2003, with the help of ANZC negotiators, to join together in a lose union, the Union Interim Parliament, or UIP. In 2008, the League of Nations recognized them as the government of India.
