The so-called "StarFire Crisis" was an event in the 1984, a violent explosion, which destroyed the city of San Fransisco in Aurono, leaving nothing but a big crater. Many speculations have been made concerning the nature of the detonation ranging from a asteroid impact or a nuclear detonation to psionic powers that resulted from the Human Instrumentality Project of Aurono's neighbour nation of Hatomia. The event, being devastating in itself, caused a wider crisis, as it sparked turmoil all over Sudeki and almost sparked a World War III. San Fransisco was subsenquently rebuilt on an artificial island in the San Francisco Bay, and became known as New San Fransisco. Officially, the new city was called "Aurona", and became once more the capital of Aurono. The huge crater left by the StarFire Crisis was gated off by the government and is still off-limits today.
