The Interregnum Draws to a Close, Where do the Candidate's Stand? How has the Empire Fared During The Last 20 days? Questions Answered.
The Assassins are currently the executives in power.
The Country has been focused on these elections, but How has the Empire Fared during this time of crisis? Surprising well. The Power vacuum left by God-Emperor Leto was seen as a potential for insurrection and destruction on a wide scale. This theory has fizzled. The only protests erupted in Lagos and Johannesburg by African Union separatists, which were quickly put down and all members put to death. Some 300 were crucified in Lagos, and 600 in Johannesburg. The Mongol-Tibetan rebellion has continued in eastern Sina, with some 346 Legionnaires (Legio VI Sinata) being killed in a terrorist attack on a base in Lhasa. The rebellion began near the end of the Derman War, and continues its ghastly guerrilla tactics to this day. It has been six years.
Protestors in Johannesberg. All have been executed.
Daily life continues for Roman Citizens as well. The Markets has taken a recent growth with news of the Imperial Succession being concluded. Food from the provinces is immense, and so are manufacturing, and the people continue to prosper. New entertainments abound, the Plebeians feasted for the last four days on the newly minted Festival of God Blackwell-Apollo, of Gordano and Lysandus. The Ludi Blackweli were also instated from the will of Emperor Leto, with Flamma once again becoming champion of the arena and killing thirteen enemies. Some 16,000 Gladiators were sacrificed to God Leto (in their glory) across the Empire, as well 578,000 animals killed in reverence of the Divine King Blackwell. Extra Police will be in force for the Bacchanalia of next month.
