Second Kyūjō Incident

The second Kyūjō incident (二度目の宮城事件, Futatabime no Kyūjō Jiken) was an attempted military coup d'état in South Japan at the later events of the USRAC War. It happened on the night of 12-13 November, just after the How I Can Help Make the World Great ceremony (including the Silbervia Conference, the Ponyville Conference and the Berlin Conference). The coup was attempted by the Staff Office of the Ministry of Defense of Japan and many from the National Police Agency (all of these who attended the How I Can Help Make the World Great ceremony in proud support to restore the shintaisei doctrines) to stop the move to accept the Ponyville Conference's topics.

The officers killed Lieutenant General Okitsugu Tsuruoka of the Imperial Guards and attempted to counterfeit an order to the effect of occupying the Tokyo Imperial Palace (Kyūjō). They attempted to place the Emperor under house arrest, using the other Imperial Guards. They failed to persuade the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force and the high command of the Japan Self-Defense Forces to move forward with the action. Due to their failure to convince the remaining army to oust the Imperial House of Japan, they ultimately committed suicide. As a result, the communiqué of the intent for a Japanese acceptance to the standards that have been addressed towards the Ponyville Conference continued as planned.
