People's Freedom Army

The People's Freedom Army was the name for the rebel movement led by General Benjamin Juma in the African nation of Sangala.

Before Redemption
General Juma and his rebels made a grab for power in Sangala, and sparked a tribal genocide in which tens of thousands of civilians were killed and injured. The rebels failed, however, and were disarmed by the United States. The United Nations was appointed to oversee the group and ensure that they remained powerless to try another coup.

Colonel Dubaku, the second-in-command of General Juma, coordinated a re-armament by purchasing weapons from the American arms dealer, Jonas Hodges. The rebels acquired mortars, howitzers, advanced computer technology, training, and a surplus of small arms and ammunition, without the knowledge of the US or the UN.

Redemption
General Juma staged his coup of the Sangala government during the events of Redemption. His subordinates kidnapped gangs of young boys as throwaway soldiers and brainwashed them with nationalist rhetoric. The government was overthrown, and Prime Minister Ule Matobo reluctantly fled the country with his wife and others via the American embassy evacuation. This was the final day of the presidency of Noah Daniels, who decided to refuse Matobo's government military aid. Large throngs of people fled the People's Freedom Army as it swept over the capital city.
