comma

I am angry you broke the vase, especially after I told you to be careful.

Please let me know if the comma here in this sentence is required and necessary. If yes, why or why not?

Because the second clause of the sentence is nonessential, a comma is necessary.

The second clause cannot come first. "Especially" applies to the breaking, not the anger.
