Andean Republic (Communist Re-Uprising)

The Andean People's Republic (Quechua: Antisuyu Runallaqta Ripuwlika, Spanish: República Popular Andina) is a country in South America, that covers nearly the entire western region of South America.

Bordered by the Pacific Ocean to the west, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay to the east, the Andes is known for its historical sites, and its ultra-diverse climate and biodiversity.

The roots for the formation of the modern Andes Republic comes from the activities of the New Path, a Shining Path-influenced indigenous paramilitary communist group that claims to have ancient connections to the Incan rulers, as well as those of the preceding ancient kingdoms that came before the Incan Empire.

History
Sick and tired of being abused, neglected and exploited by what they considered to be the "descendants of an oppressive Spanish Empire", a group of indigenous Quechua and Aymara-speaking communist rebels, led by Nicolás Champarra.

These rebels, followed an extremely syncretic form of Catholicism, and took their influences from other indigenous-based paramilitaries throughout the world, such as the Philippine-based Katipunan, the Peruvian-based Shining Path, the Red Turban movement in Mongol-occupied China, and so forth.

This group referred to themselves as Musog Nan, or in Spanish, Nuevo Camino, or "New Path", since the group didn't necessarily agree with the old Shining Path. However, like the Shining Path before them, the New Path conducted ruthless attacks against tourists, especially American ones.

Despite originally following an indigenized form of Catholicism, the group began to despise Christianity altogether, and adopted a desire to revive pre-Christian Andean paganism in its entirety.
