The 1959 New Year's Eve Riots were the beginning of the civil war between Atlas and Andrew Ryan for control of Rapture. On December 31, 1958, Atlas led a large segment of lower-class citizens in a series of attacks on Rapture's upper-class areas and population. One of the places that was hit first and hardest was the Kashmir Restaurant in Rapture's main transportation hub, which was hosting a New Year's Eve Masquerade Ball. Ryan Amusements was hit as well, being temporarily cut off from the rest of Rapture, which led to the demises of many caught inside the park at the time.
An audio diary was recorded by Diane McClintock at the exact moment when the riots begin: New Year's Eve Alone. Diane was attending the party in the Kashmir Restaurant, but shortly after the diary began she was injured and cut the recording short.
