Ring Nights
In the autumn of 2005 a chase in an estate of the outer ring ended in a tragedy, and for three weeks the Ring burned.
If the Revolution won
The estates organised, and their voices were heard in the city.
Otherwise
The nights calmed, and the city went back to not looking.
If the Law used “Emergency Law”
A state of emergency was declared, under a law written during the Algerian war.
Otherwise
There was no curfew and no state of emergency.
