The Second Kildarian Revolution, or Revolution of 1704, was a conflict which erupted within the western and eastern states of the Great Apollonian Empire. Economic and financial troubles, increased by the ethnic tensions and a lack of political progress in solving social and economical troubles, lay at the core of the revolution. The outbreak of the revolution and the violence which accompanied it, further vaporised support of the pro-federalist and pro-empire factions.

It eventually resulted in the collapse of the short-lived, but largest empire of Micras and the establishment of the Democratic Apollonian Republic of Kildare, the Qyzyl People's Republic and Alrig Autonomous Republic. The eastern part of the empire, re-transformed itself back into the Ultimate Çakar Sultanate.

The revolution started of with a revolt from the workers and labour unions within the Empire, but was soon supported and hijacked by the Kakumei Society, which had retreated to Arboria in the aftermath of the Post-Chidao Troubles. Cooperation between its two rivalling factions was shaky at best during the early days of the revolution, but turned worse when Marius Gallo blamed Wang Wei to be influenced by honeyed words of the Tegong chief Shi Pupei.

The unnatural manner through which the Tegong seduced Wang Wei into an alliance between the Syndicalist wing of the Society for the Revolution and the dissident factions of the Jing military caused the Humanist faction based in Arboria to declare the "Realm of Kildare" and commence its own attack on the revolutionaries. Infighting ensued, with both sides fighting for the overthrow of each other and the federal authorities. However, after a few weeks of indecisive skirmishing, the Humanist faction deemed their involvement in the conflict to be futile and, encouraged by their sponsors in Arboria and the Benacian Union, withdrew back northwards across the border - preserving the Talons of the Archon as a force in being that would remain ready for future eventualities including the inevitable failure of the degenerate egalitarian ideology now being propagated.
