Horrors of 2755

The Horrors of 2755 was a race riot and massacre that started in Budapest, Hungary on the 9th September 2755 as a confrontation between furries and humans after the discovery that human butchers were murdering and selling meat products from non-humans. This resulted in a savage attack upon all humans living in Budapest that quickly spread to most of Europe, primarily in Central and Western Europe, with humans responding with reprisals.

The massacre took place from 9th September 2755 to 20th October 2755 until the European governments had no choice but to request aid from Russia in ending the massacres.

Human-Anthro relations
In the year before the massacres, 2754, there was growing resentment and violence between the human and anthro communities. Racial tensions had been simmering for years between these groups. This was due to previous resentment of the Eurasian Party and their warmongering policies and the ongoing Yellow Scare. Many anthros living in the area felt resentment by being forced to adopt the human language and cultures that came before. Neither group fully understood the extent or sheer enormity of the cultural differences and language barriers, which further fueled tensions.

Human food discovery
What tipped the scale into full-blown hatred was the discovery of human shop-owners, called butchers, were selling the meat of non-humans, causing a massive scandel. In mid 2755, it was released into the world that humans used non-humans as a food source and used to butcher them into meat products. This caused a massive rift into human-anthro relations. Despite efforts from some human groups, mainly in Russia, to move on from their past, a lot of anthros thought that this was a crime against them caused by the humans that was never answered for.

"Eat the Eaters" movement
Tensions further increased when disorganised groups of anti-human anthros started to spread messages around the world, mainly on the internet, about "avengeing their ancestors" from the "crimes" of humanity, cultivating in the Eat the Eaters movement, EtE for short. The EtE advocated open savage attacks against humans involving using their fangs, claws and strengths rather than the "shameful human weapons" being used.

Events
The riots began midday on the 9th of September when members of the EtE led a mob to brutally attack and kill 20-year-old human Nomis Gábor by using mainly their claws and teeth in Budapest. Law enforcements were reported to have not intervended due to being outnumbered by the mob by the time the attack happened, humans claim that they did not intervene deliberately.

This sudden attack led to the mass murder of humans occuring in Budapest, with over a hundred being killed in savage attacks and being eaten.
