Ghantish Leaders, Royals Weigh in on Native Vieux Controversy
Prime Minister Almazara: "When all options for peaceful settlement have been foreclosed, what other options do the disenfranchised have?"
May 1, 2025, Ghish, Ghant

GHISH – Prime Minister Alicia Almazara gave a press conference regarding the controversy involving Vieux and Somani Crow Natives. The press conference was held as a result of mass protests in Ghish over the treatment of the Natives by the Vieuxen government, with protestors taking up around the Vieuxen embassy, and vandalizing nearby property.

The Liberal Prime Minister from Abaza, in office since 2022, said in her press conference that, "Based upon the situation unfolding in Vieux, I highly doubt that Prime Minister Trémaux is an optimist in any sense of the word. He talks of big game, yet is unwilling to listen to native leadership and their needs. I would say that he is directly responsible for the tensions occurring in Vieux now, because when all options for peaceful settlement have been foreclosed, what other options do the disenfranchised have? Violence, that’s what. Apparently, there is enough demand for independence or increased autonomous devolution that the only sensible solution to the crisis is a Referendum to decide the fate of the areas in question. After all, government only governs with the consent of the governed, and anything else is merely an oppressive yoke meant to be cast off. So, let the people of those areas decide what form of government they should have, otherwise myself, and the rest of the international community will have to label Prime Minister Trémaux a tyrant, and the nation of Vieux will have to be treated as such."

The passionate, outspoken Prime Minister Almazara, known for her center-left politics both at home and abroad, echoes popular Ghantish sentiment on the Somani Crow situation. Given the historical enmity between ethnic natives and the Vieuxen population, more than 75% of Ghantish citizens believe that at the very least, an independence referendum should be held by the Somani Crow natives, while another 60% believe that Prime Minister Trémaux is in the wrong on the issue, and outright support Somani Crow violence.

Closer to Vieux, Empress Dowager Teresa of Ghant weighed in on the issue as well, being particularly harsh in what she had to say. “I would like to applaud Member of Parliament Marlène Astier for being the voice of reason in Vannois regarding the tomfoolery unfolding in Vieux of late. She, like her father Maximilien, is quite sensible. Prime Minister Trémaux is obviously being a two faced wanker on the native issue, preaching optimism and openness yet is driving the natives to violence. Clearly they have a different direction in mind for how they should be organized on a governmental level, and this oppressive dog and pony show has gone on long enough. Let the people decide via a referendum, now, or be labeled as an oppressor who clasps unwilling citizens in chains.”

Teresa went on to respond directly to Vannoisian Prime Minister Vasseur rather harshly. “As for our own Prime Minister, I stood with him and applauded him for finally delivering a secular government for Vannois, but on this issue I cannot in good conscious stand with him. He would ask this nation, and all within it, including myself, to stand with Vieux on this issue, but I cannot and will not. Trémaux is wrong, and Vasseur is wrong for supporting his tyranny. I would ask the people of Vannois this. If a man tried to force himself upon a woman, and that woman cried out for help, who would you support? Vasseur would have you support the man. I would have you support the woman.”

The situation in Ghish remains tense, with Inperiala Palace being quiet on the subject, aside from a comment from the Empress that, “Referendums never hurt anyone.” All parties have urged the violence to stop, including pressing native leadership to put an end to violence, and for Vieuxen citizens and police to be more sensitive to native concerns.

Christian Democratic Party Faces Scandal Report

Pictured: Mitglied Franko Gruechel reporting on the Committee on Political Affairs' findings and conclusions.

Drovan -- Shock, disbelief, and a hit to the reputation of arguably one of the most influential party in Kronata's history. Mitglied Franko Greuchel of the Bundeskongress Committee on Political Affairs announced yesterday that the Committee has, "come to the unanimous agreement that illegal and unfair acts has been committed by the Kronatan Christian Democratic Party, and its leadership, in order to gain an advantage over colleagues both during and outside of election processes." He also reported that, "the Christian Democratic Party was under critical review by independent agencies within and outside the government for actions believed to have been undertaken by its leadership to circumvent fair election practice. This Committee, and those reports, have strong evidence toward foul malpractice by the Party."

With Presidential elections only two months away, the Christian Democratic presidential candidate and party leader, Albert Hudeger, is almost definitely watching his long campaign, and possibly even his party, shatter over night. Some are calling this the end of conservative competition in politics, others say that this will only provide a boost to conservative sympathies. What everyone is sure of, however, is exactly what Bundeskongress Committee on Federal Oversight leader Mitglied Charles Lodenberg told in a quick press conference today:

"If, in any amount or position, any political entity is tried and found guilty of manipulation against the Kronatan people, then those people will be assured that quick and swift action will be taken against such an entity. It is not about partisian politics, but about the security and trust that the people can invest in their government. The people elected a government to serve them, not one constructed from false information and backroom deals. Any party engaging in such acts shall, in the eyes of the people, lose any validity to office. Any act of disregard for the process shall be met with a fierce resistence from the Kronatan people. The evidence provided is clear, and now "

With a press conference scheduled for noon today, the people of Kronata await to see what response the Christian Democratic leadership has. For now, however, all the people can do, is speculate how the politics of Kronata will shift. Giants fall with a force to shatter landscapes, and it is almost certain that the political landscape as we know it has changed drastically. For better or worse, trust in the right spectrum will require more than a miracle to be repaired.

Ravenna: The Emperor spoke just moments ago from the front garden outside of the Villa Ravennae regarding the Conservative Party's internal leak that occurred earlier today. He led off by addressing the media about the current controversy surrounding the extradition of Mr. Fergus and the unfair suspension of two ethnic Gaelic Senators.

“It is absolutely abhorrent the way that these two Senators, Ailpein Lùtair and Griogair Dunaid, have been treated. Late last night, I issued an executive order to lift their suspension from the Senate immediately. This order will also see Tribune Fructosis and the other three PSP senators indefinitely suspended from the legislative body with a hearing set for him within the next ten days." The Emperor based his decision off of the numerous eyewitness reports, all of which placed the blame on the PSP senators for initiating the altercation.

Then the Emperor touched on the recent actions surrounding the extradition of Columbanus Fergus Eriugena, who was recently apprehended by Kiravian federal marshals. “…I am appalled of the way that the state government of Irovasdra is handling the situation surrounding Mr. Fergus…I am, however, grateful for the valiant actions of Prime Executive Candrin on taking the appropriate measures for apprehending Fergus.” He went onto say that Scholae Palatinae officials are currently on their way to finalize Fergus’s transfer, back to Latium, where he will be arraigned at the 9th Hiburnian Inferior Court in Mamucium, a suburb of Drumanagh within the month.

Lastly, the Emperor addressed the recent Conservative Party leaks and the attacks against his wife. “First of all, it deeply saddens me that Leon would speak this way of any individual, let alone my own wife; a woman who has dedicated her life to helping hard-working and downtrodden people across the world. The behavior and judgment of [Dalassenos] and the Conservative Party’s leadership is completely unbecoming of not just leaders of the Senate and their party, but as human beings…Say what you will about me, but to attack someone’s spouse is and cowardly and spineless act…It is behavior that myself nor the Latin people will stand for…and is flatly out of line.”

Consul Dalassenos resigned from his Consulship and the Senate in a brief press release that was sent out during the Emperor’s press conference, which the Emperor was made aware of while speaking. “The role of a Consul is to lead the elected body of representatives for the Latin people, something which Leon has failed to do since his Consulship began just thirty-six days ago. And if I were not just handed his resignation, I would damn well demand it,” Jason Augustus informed the press, proceeding to sign the paperwork during his speech. “As this is new information, we will need to consider all the possibilities for the Senate to gain their next Consul,” the Emperor continued, noting that he is hesitant to call for snap elections so quickly after the general election. Before finishing his press conference, Jason Augustus stated that the Senate would be meeting in Ravenna for the "foreseeable future."

Leon Dalassenos is now the shortest serving Consul, having held the office for thirty-six days. Curiate Tribune Pacuraru and Conservative Party Chairman Istrati also resign from their posts.

Ravenna: This morning, the Duchess of Vindóbona announced that she has managed to form a government coalition, a coalition that fits the definition of the word in every way. Following her approval to form the new government from the Emperor, the Duchess and the Catholic Democrats will be joined by four other parties: the remaining 389 members of the Conservative Party, People’s Party of Gaels, the Hellenic National Party, and the Levantian Union Party. The current coalition sits at 467 seats.

In a press conference inside the old Senate building of Ravenna, the Duchess was joined by the leaders of her new coalition to make the official announcement. "This is a time for healing…and the members of this new government and our coalition are the complete embodiment of unity. Unity that we Latins need in a time such as this,” the Duchess began the press conference. She went onto introduce the new leadership. Ailpein Lùtair of the People’s Party of Gaels will serve as Deputy Consul; Alexander Florentina of the Conservatives as Tribune of the People; Levantian Unionist, Petrus Salus as Curiate Tribune; and Aeneas Chryselios of the Hellenic National Party as Century Tribune. With the Duchess assuming the role as Consul.

The Duchess sounded off on various topics, ranging from potential government policy, Somani Crow Referendum, and the hearings for the PSP members. She stated that there has been talk of seeing what could be done to restore the former status quo in regards to the Catholic Church in Latium, though acknowledged that it would be an uphill battle; then segueing into possible repeals of what she called “unpopular reforms” initiated during Consul Lepera’s term, such as the Right to Choose Act and stripping certain provisions of the Healthcare Reform and Revitalization Act that provide government funding for those in high-health risk that fall below the poverty level to obtain an abortion.

Touching on the Somani Crow Referendum, the Duchess said that she and the cabinet would be discussing it with the Emperor at their first meeting. She acknowledged that, “while the final decision rests with the Emperor, I am of the opinion that we cannot recognize this separatist state…the recognition of such a state upsets the established global order of sovereign States and could thus pose a grave threat to international peace and security.” Most expect that the Emperor would not recognize any Somani state.

The Senate is set to readjourn tomorrow in Ravenna; the Emperor already confirming his attendance.

In related political news, newly independent Senators, Thomas Pompilius and Antonia Tranio, continue to rally large groups of people. The pair, who retain their seats on the prominent People’s Assembly, continue to speak against both the left and right; calling others to join them in their goal for a true government of the people. “The left, the right, they’re only goal is to promote their own old and tired ideology…the only true path, is one of Latin values. A path of National Civicism,” Pompilius said in an address to a gathering outside of the Senate building this morning.

Other Headlines:
- “[Trémaux] did the right thing,” former Consul Lepera told the media this morning, regarding holding the Somani referendum and his resignation.
- LHL announces new streaming 12 year £7.1 billion deal, which will see all LHL games being available on IxFlix streaming service worldwide starting in the 2025-26 season.

HULANG THE HEIRLESS?

Pictured, his perfection at a recent event in Xungong

XUANJING: It has been a decade since the rise of his perfection, Ditor Hulang I Lazin and the nature of his reign has been a tragic yet hopeful one. Soon after his completion of the Quanli he was faced with the internal chaos that was the Silent War. After the turmoil ended thanks to his superior and diplomatic handling of the situation. Yet he has remained a distant monarch, one who despite his policies of increased spending on the poor and the average Renlei as well as stabilizing Akai through the systematic destruction of scum like the Corsairs and the Slavers. This distance has saved him from losing his position as a just actor. His reformation of the Riyeskonsu into a proper military and law enforcement force and creation of the Fadaizhe to serve as enforcers of his will. Yet he remains the organiser, the statesman of Akai whose logic decisions have left this nation stable once more.

Yet many have noticed that he seems not to care for the name he wears proudly - Clan Lazin only has three children from its main branch and only one possible heir in the form of the nine year old Prince Aboluo, hardly a fitting heir to this nation when considering his uncles are all aged and likely not ready for the throne. He has taken little interest in others, to marry or even to enjoy natural relations with the concubines of the palace, instead allowing them to spend their time elsewhere.

Even the Dowager Dihei has noticed this stating recently in an exclusive interview: “He seems detached from the world. He is warmer now than he was during the silent war but he is a man without these passions it seems.” She later went on to say: “We have raised the issue to him in private, trying to convince him the merits of it. He has remained cold saying ‘a child from a heartless marriage, what good is that? I do not want another to mold.’”

This has caused great discontent among the many ranks of Akai society and has unified a surprisingly large selection of people who agree upon the issue that he must sire an heir. Gong-Marshal Long Zhanshi stated in 2024 in a now declassified interview: “It is a matter of national security and urgency that the Ditor sire and heir to Akai. Without an heir we face the chaos which divided Akai centuries ago but in modern times. Without an heir, we cannot guarantee the future stability of Akai through us alone.”

Dabawang Hua IX Jialazin in a matter held in the Enlightened Conclave delcared furthermore: “Our Clans are ready to sire this heir. We have our daughters and our sisters if need be to devote to the cause of our nation. We beg of you that you can see this opportunity to not only stabilise the realm but to also increase your father's line. If you refuse to do so, other Clans will take an interest and claim the throne, this we can all agree while useful for us in the short term will only condemn us to repeat years of pointless violence which we have so carefully avoided." The rather public message was made before the general assembly of Dabawangs and Wusheng further adding: "I offer you my own daughter Lady Xisi Jialazin, as a sign of this effort. Other clans may wish to do so too." This self interest was expressed by several other clans including Dabawang Xhou Cangbai and Dabawang Zaijian Aoxiajia as well.

Furthermore the SIA in a rare collective statement on the matter in a small understated conference: "we are of the belief that Hulang should acquire an heir to the throne of Akai or at least have some effort with regards to marrying into one of the nobles Clans here or marrying outside of Akai. I do suspect some other players would be interested in such a marriage to his perfection and that it would help benefit the rule of both parties involved." They further went on to add with a grim tone: "I doubt keeping the nation heirless would be in the interest of those parties involved."

There was once rumours of a relationship between the Ditor in his youth and the Honorary Princess of Ghant, Amelia Kindaro although there are reports that the relationship broke down and failed some time ago although the details remain unknown. It is theorised that a lot of his actions and reclusion from the world was due to this hypothetical failure although no Lazin was able to comment on the issue, anonymous sources from Xungong claimed that they were often seen in each other's presence when left alone.

There is also Shouxikai Liqin Mei has been proposed to be a possible candidate for becoming the Dihei of Hulang due to their apparent closeness in recent times, being apparently a close confidant of the sovereign as well as also being the Chief Courtesan of the Court Concubines, giving her some power over the women of the court. Although apparently Machiko still controls it with her tight, constricting grip.

Dowager Dihei Machiko Lazin did say that an event might be held for parties interested in possibly securing a marriage to Hulang at the newly built Hulanggong palace in Xungong although details are few in number. It could be gathered that several great clans would be present at the event.

Overall the pressure on Hulang has increased recently, although it seems he might be responding to it - his pace seems to slow for Akai.

Drumanagh: Chaos strikes Hiburnia yet again, as the Gaeil Saoradh Buidheann (Gelonian Freedom Movement) began battling with local military personnel throughout the entire province late last night. Early reports claim that Drumanagh city police officers began to open fire on the military while on a joint patrols around the city. And following that attack, the GSB immediately claimed responsibility for the attack on Latin Armed Forces.

This was quickly followed by a declaration of independence coming from the GSB. An act which was corroborated by the provincial government as they are reported to have entered the local legislature building for the first time since the suspension of civilian government nearly two weeks ago. Former chancellor of the provincial government, Patric Burland, was proclaimed to be Taoiseach or Prime Minister of the Gelonian Republic. Ailpein Lùtair, who served as Deputy Consul until his recent resignation, was proclaimed President in absentia, but who’s current whereabouts are unknown.

In their joint declaration, both the GSB and the Gelonian Republic state the mistreatment and racial targeting of ethnic Gelonians, including the detainment of persecution of Columbanus Fergus Eriugena, whom the GSB claims is still in hiding “until he can be safely brought back home.” Taoiseach Burland also sent out a desperate plea to all

In what is being dubbed the Battle of Drumanagh, the minor detachments of Armed Forces that were present in the province have suffered heavy losses, possibly in the neighborhood of thousands. Consul Vindóbona denounced the attack on Latin military personnel, calling it "the barbaric murder and assassination of the brave men and women" that were present to protect them. "Response will be swift and just," Vindóbona added before the Emperor briefly addressed the press.

Moments before press time, the Emperor declared the province in a state of rebellion, which Magister Militum Flavius Potitiu followed up in announcing preliminary orders to quell the rebellion. Local naval vessels have been ordered to remain in port if possible and to begin a blockade of the island. The 29th, 36th, and 71st Legions have been ordered to fortify their positions in Hiburnia, while it was soon announced the Armorican Praetorian regiment has captured the border town of Tarbhais in the province.

Ravenna: As the Latin military makes their advance towards the Hiburnian capital, Imperial Offices are now confirming that that provincial capital of Dramanagh is being burned down by GSB elements in the area. After struggling to capture the coastal town of Monaoda, which surrendered only days ago, the military has continued to focus on the capture of the capital. Current estimates place current ground forces nearly 20 miles from Dramanagh, which is when the burning of the city could first be seen.

Fly-bys and on-looking naval forces quickly confirmed the burning of the city, with Magister Militum Poienaru stating that “the Emperor ordered all naval and aerial bombardment of the city to cease last night…This is clearly the work of the GSB.” After the Magister Militum’s statement, the GSB released confirmation on Ixtter claiming responsibility for burning the city. “Better a pile of ashes than in Latin chains. The fight continues. #Freedom” the tweet said. The Gelonian government is said to have relocated further north in the province, to the city of Cicutio.

It is unclear how many casualties there are as a result of the destruction of Dramanagh, as many began to flee the city when the navy began their blockade. “It is an absolutely heinous crime that these terrorists have committed against one of the great northern cities of Latium and its proud inhabitants…We will be holding a vote in the Senate that will provide aid for Dramanagh once the city is liberated,” Consul Vindóbona told the press. When asked on if the Emperor and Senate leadership have had discussions on whether or not a referendum would be held, the Consul said that there “currently aren’t any plans.” When asked of her opinion of the recent legislation in the Kiravian state of Irovasdra, she said that “Governor Tòisich should mind his own business.”

Now onto our next topic, the Monarchy . . . Certainly not the boy band who utilizes electronic music to get laid . . . No of course not . . . And no, we will not talk about that DC Comics character that wasn't known to man much except to those who have muscle fetish. No, no, no - no sir. We will talk about that revered and cherished Viridisian institution - or so we all agreed in consensus. This institution has been quite a nuisance really. It's been in the headlines of several of the prominent regional papers. The Ghish Post; 'Ghantish Leaders, Royals Weigh in on Native Vieux Controversy,' 'Empress Dowager Teresa of Vannois on Secularization Bill: “It’s about time” “Should have happened years ago”,' Le Citoyen: 'Vasseur slams Vacek for comments on Dowager', and 'The Viridisian Republic: Foreign Minister Chased Into Ministry By Vannosian Consort Dowager." Lastly my favourite, 'Hot Bitch Runs Away From Royal MILF Supporters . . . ' That last headline was from the Purple Banana. Cheeky tabloids nowadays, isn't this all tiring? Except the two last pieces, now that's faux journalism at its best.

Before we go further, we must endeavour to stop to begin what we were supposed to tackle on in the first place. Now, on the Monarchy with the basics that is technically a dictatorship in which the supreme ruler is ceremonially vested with absolute power and dies in such a manner, formally we see it otherwise. It centres on divine right, inherent right. The idea that God has given power to one and so he or she has the right to rule, and the people in turn must obey blindly. Sort of like those fanatical Christians in the Southernmost parts of the South Audonian Islands to their children. Okay, so those who are knowledgeable or at least aware of monarchy would say this is absolute monarchy, different from what we know today in countries like ours, Valaran, and Ghant. Not so different actually in Ghant if you would see it in another perspective. We are a constitutional monarchy, see. We have the endowed right to vote our leaders, a right granted by a constitution proclaimed by the Emperor, our emperor, the Valaran Emperor. I bet this is beginning to confuse those who are planning to become Viridisians.

This constitutional monarchy is ceremonial, unlike in Ghant where the monarch has several prerogatives to determine government. So they are quasi-executive, in my opinion.

Now, now: We had enough of IMMBC specials on the Imperial Family and anything else with "Imperial" or "Royal" stuck in its name. Be honest. We've got tired of hand-kissing and so we go rid of it, we got tired of watching politicians singing the Imperial Anthem on Channel Four, and we are still considering the thought of letting go of the Valaran monarchy. Sad, sad, I know.

At first I was studying Vannosian politics so that we could share it with the rest of the country who is still on at at eleven o'clock in Sunday nights. I was bothered. I'm quite intimidated with the Purple Banana's headlines on Vacek and her ordeal with the Vannosian people. 'Dickhead raped by gay BDSM enthusiasts after insulting Vannosian royal granny.' That's kind of long for a headline, let alone for a tabloid, but it's the Purple Banana. The sky's the limit for them, heaven or hell I would say. But if you want to speak you're mind you have to fucking say. Do not restrain yourselves, ladies and gentlemen. Fear not. After all, we live in one of the greatest democracies on Ixnay. One of the greatest republics, soon to be that is. We are a proud nation of 65 million. Happy Viridisian's Day, we've enjoyed 24 years of independence. And we have had the pleasure of looking out to see other countries. It has become the habit of most of us, including me, to criticize other people except ourselves. What about Edric Skaran III, Prince William and Sven? Tonight, we will now begin a century of Valaran dominion in comparison to other entities at the time that were also ruled and reigned by monarchy."

^{July 4, 2025, 6:19:42 PM | The Imperial State of Viridisolum}

The Imperial State of Viridisolum, we are a humble group of islands linking the Omnium Sea, Audonian Sea, and the Sea of Crowns. These islands have been sovereign and free for 24 years and next year we will celebrate 25 years of peace and harmony as a nation. At first we were a band of settlers, pilgrims from what was once one of the vast empires on this Earth. Thanks to Andulur Helar, we have discovered the islands of Ahnsem, prominently Halygenreland or as it is commonly known Saintsland, the land that composes most of the National Subdivision of Central Viridisolum. He first graced these lands with the Imperial Banner of Valaran in 1584. Helar left for Valaran and came back in two years to plant the Christian cross beside the streaming Cajeri River, proclaiming "May God Bring His Glory to Valaran." From then on, Halygenreland was taken as Emperor Vilfred II's territory. Helar established four trading settlement later on. Upon hearing the discovery of the South Audonian Islands, which Valaran staked for claim, Lord Dankeiran wanted to be of service to his king and country. And to do so he sent 135 men, women, and children to the Halygenreland settlements. These four settlements stand on present-day Furiste, Central Viridisolum. Dankeiran was very determined to gain the favour of Vilfred's imperial person. He then established the colonies of Port Imperial, Erest, Wereka, Ishter, and Ajkanit. The settlements on Central Viridisolum officially became known as "Viridisia" in accordance with the 131st Decree of Emperor Magnus IX in 1668, a name proposed by renowned Valaran statesman Abemel Grosk, the first High Governor of Viridisia. Within the 17th Century and onward, Valaran Viridisolum expanded until the rest of the South Audonian Islands were under the colours of Cerulean blue and black. Other colonial presence were pushed out or dealt with peacefully.

We all deeply believed to be Valaran until 1933 when our curiosity for the possibility of statehood erupted from our minds. The Imperial Proclamation of 1933 granted self-governance to His Imperial Majesty's Province of Viridisia. The foundations of a nation were laid down unconsciously by the Valaran Imperial Parliament. Then came the eternal moment of Viridisian history, the last and 47th High Governor of Viridisia, Lord Christian de sol Biarn, read a copy of the Imperial Proclamation of 1953 to the citizens of Imperial Henstrakon and those who were visiting the national capital from a balcony on the East Wing of the Palace of Viridisians. The Valaran Imperial Banner survives this revolutionary development. It is then when Viridisia became Viridisolum, a free imperial state, a dominion within the Valaran Empire's influence and imperial power. Emperor Vilfred-Magnus V, who represented an era of gold now represented an era of the beginning of a fall. The Valaran Empire has lost control over Valaran South Plata, the Democratic State of Da'klaweldi, and the Kingdom of Globus, notable two of many other entities of the empire in the world.

Viridisian institutions representing and possessing likeness of anything Valaran is nothing more but imperial decorations belonging to the Valaran Empire to bear their shame for losses in the colonial game.

Instead of tackling other monarchies in the region so early in this article as it was done by fellow Viridisian republicans on IMMBC, let us start with how Viridisian government works. Well, who is our head of state? According to IMMBC's online poll, 14 percent believes that the Prime Minister is the Viridisian head of state. This fact only exists on the orgasmic fantasies of Viridisian nationalist republicans. 22 percent had no idea. The rest knows that the Emperor of Valaran is the Viridisan head of state. The reigning monarch presently is Edric Skaran III, a young man who lives across regions in a faraway castle, far, far away. No wonder why he visits Viridisolum after a decade interval. To those unaware, to become a Viridisian one must swear a declaration of loyalty to the Emperor. We also must swear a declaration to affirm our loyalty to the Emperor to become a government official.

Before in my father's days, the Oath of Affirmation was recited once in a week, school events, or in academic and national celebrations. This practice was ended by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Department of Education in October 11, 1975 at the advice of Emperor Alphonse IV's Privy Council that deemed the practice "thorns on Valaran decolonization in Viridisolum." This only affects national subdivisions, not any of the member states of Viridisolum who have ignored the issue.

His Imperial Majesty's Government in Viridisolum - Ministry of World Affairs | To Be Green And Land: "Several schools, member states and state legislatures recite the Affirmation of Allegiance at the start of the day in morning assemblies followed by the singing of the National Anthems: 'The People's Anthem' and 'The Imperial Anthem.'"

The Imperial Proclamation of 1953: a. I, (first name, last name), declare and solemnly swear my oath of allegiance, that I will be faithful and loyal to His (or Her) Imperial Majesty (the name and titles - specifically those which distinguishes gender - of the Imperial Sovereign, and so: Edric Skaran III of the Valaran Empire, Viridisolum, and Of His Other Realms and Possessions Across the Seas and Continents, Emperor, King of the Valaran and North Minean People,) Leader of the Commonwealth Union of Allied and Associated States; His (or Her) Heirs and Successors in accordance with Viridisian law (the titles of, and exclusively for, state officers and servicemen: as TITLE).

b. I, (first name, last name), affirm my declaration and solemn swear of fealty, that I will be faithful and loyal to His (or Her) Imperial Majesty (the name and titles - specifically those which distinguishes gender - of the Imperial Sovereign, and so: Edric Skaran III of the Valaran Empire, Viridisolum, and Of His Other Realms and Possessions Across the Seas and Continents, Emperor, King of the Valaran and North Minean People,) Leader of the Commonwealth Union of Allied and Associated States; His Heirs and Successors in accordance with the law (the titles of, and exclusively for, state officers and servicemen: as TITLE).

Since the Emperor cannot always be in business physically in this country his person has an embodiment, in Carlesia House, charged by the constitution to represent the Monarchy on a confederate level and is tasked to perform the duties of the Emperor in his absence. This person is the Grand Secretary, a position currently held by Lord Albright Maximillian de sol Hoffenir. In our government, nothing happens without the word of His Excellency the Grand Secretary. Bills that have been passed in the legislature to become a law need the signature of His Excellency, elections are commenced by His Excellency, and war or peace cannot be achieved unless he wants to. Thankfully, we are a democracy and he cannot perform his duties without the say so of the Prime Minister, incumbent Miroslav Zakhar. A parliamentary democracy nevertheless, our prime minister was not voted into power through popular election as it is done in most democracies. He was merely voted a member of parliament. He is prime minister because he is the leader of the prominent party in the ruling coalition, the Liberal Party of Viridisolum. So he could be replaced by the party anytime regardless of our opinion. The Office of Prime Minister may seem to be ultimately powerful. Sadly for him, the Grand Secretary is not completely powerless against him in times when the prime minister is at fault. His Excellency can swiftly kick him out of office by dismissing him from prime ministry dissolving parliament following a vote of no confidence in which parliament must declare they support or opposition to the ruling party or coalition. Then general elections will come to pass. Or the Grand Secretary can simply ask another party or coalition to lead national government if they have the confidence of the Confederate Assembly, Viridisolum's lower house in its legislature.

A constitutional monarchy is a form of government in which a monarch is restrained by a legislature, legal code, or tradition. Most would immediately say that it is a form of parliamentary democracy where parliament is supreme and the monarch is as good as any other do-good popular, social celebrity environmentalist. This is not always true.

In the Grand Kingdom of Axionnes, their constitutional monarchy is quite similar to Viridisolum's. There is one that stands significant enough; a legal aspect that contradicts similarity between them and the Nation: "Lèse majesté" or "violation of majesty" in simple terms. In Axionnes, those who committed this violation face monetary and penal sentences. On the bright side, these are not overbearing unless you are poor or that you do not wish to face humiliation.

The Axiench Monarch's reserve powers to refuse bills from passing into law as it should, to appoint men of judicial authority, and to initiate referendums are not much to tackle with. Instead it is the Axiench Monarchy's contemporary past. King Charles-Amédée and monarchs before successfully suppressed calls for more freedom and democracy for the benefit of their time, not for the time that will come after theirs. The December Crisis of 1979 was a blessing for Axiench reformists as it hinted a weakness in the Monarchy's supposed power. Charles-Amédée abdicated and Vercingétorix became King. His early reign attempted to do what his predecessors have done, only to bring about long-awaited change in Axiench politics. In the aftermath of Vercingétorix's decision to dismiss the national government led by Prime Minister Eduard Carhaix, a known supporter of an Axiench republic, and appoint his place absolutist Alphonse Chautemps, Vercingétorix's father-in-law, led to a series of unfortunate events. These events were the Vivéron Metro Bombings, Londres Palace Attack, 1980 Student Protests, and an attempt to end Vercingétorix's life in the first few months of 1981. Vercingétorix, who may have been threatened with these events, initiated a referendum whether there would be reforms in Axiench democracy and constitution or not. The former was favoured by nearly everybody in the country and elections came the following year that moved Chautemps, and almost every radical traditionalist that towed behind him in parliament, out of power following the victory of Vincent Auriol and his liberals.

National Factbook of Axionnes: In the 1981 Constitution, the king lost the ability to dismiss and appoint governments. In 1987, the king lost the ability to veto constitutional changes, as well as the ability to draw new borders for constituencies; which kings rarely used anyways.

While this seemed to have ended well this was only one of many constitutional monarchies that coexists in the modern world, the very world that this institution tried to destroy from its conception for the sake of survival. Ironically, they live in jubilant extravagance thanks to the times we live in today, the adoration of their peoples for their "achievements in furthering democracy."

The Empire of Azura and Montemayor, a leading power in Ixnay, is also a constitutional monarchy. Its monarchy is one of the oldest in the region, having a dynasty that lasted since 1199 BC. 36 of its dynasty have ruled over Azura and Montemayor. But before Azura and Montemayor, there was only the Kingdom of Azura and the Kingdom of Montemayor. Artur I Doležal was the Azuran sovereign and Viktória X Havlíček was the Montemayori sovereign, they were married. Their death led to a supposed personal union led by Azura but the union ended with unification of the two kingdoms under Erik, the first not only by name but of the Azuran and Montemayori Empire as well. Progress for democracy in the country was insignificant, effectively useless, prior to the reign of Emperor Boleslav VII who was progressive to allow his subjects self-determination, propelled by the factor of him being amongst the common folk in his youth. May it be considered that his outward behaviour to his people generous, generous in all but mind. He is well aware that giving more power to the people would spell downfall to the reins of government he holds with determination. Unexpectedly, in 1834, Boleslav gave permission to allow the establishment of an advisory body known as the "Citizen's Council." The young form of the Parliament of Azura and Montemayor. The sovereigns that came after Boleslav surprisingly made no attempt to curtail the growing development of a parliamentary system in the country. Most of the Azuran and Montemayori Emperor's prerogatives and rights were endowed to the people, for parliamentary supremacy. Yet he holds performances still significant to the country's politics such as issuance of executive orders that are to be reviewed by the judiciary, to determine several departments and agencies within the executive branch, to declare a state of emergency under warrant, and to impose martial law under warrant. In any of these two circumstances the constitution is effectively suspended and the Azuran and Montemayori Monarchy rules free of bounds. Even after these circumstances, whatever the Emperor has done would not be tried in the legislative or judicial branches. He runs withholding no worries. The Emperor determines whoever would be a cabinet minister, regardless of what the legislature says. He may be obligated accept an elected prime minister as head of government but he has a say on who will be working with the prime minister. The Emperor is not obligated to give assent to legislation pending to become law.

Drahoslav III, the reigning Azuran and Montemayori Emperor Drahoslav III's father, declared war on the United Socialist States of Wukatia. Wukatia was a sovereign state above the Grand Kingdom of Axionnes. Its people were known to have an aggressive knack for Azurans and Montemayoris. So aggressive that one of them tried to murder an Azuran and Montemayori cabinet minister. A war came about after this incident. An incident I would say not worth the life of one in exchange for the sovereignty of thousands, let alone an attempt to kill for an invasion, a war that was never taken review, even after the conflict. The only solution was annexation they said after attempting to establish a government that would "go-along" with Azura and Montemayor. The Wukatians still opposed them heavily to which the Emperor suppressed with no consideration of mercy.

Monarchies still remain as a reminder of a grand and glorious history, fabricated perhaps to serve the prestige of monarchs and those who lived and living to support it. True as it is told maybe. We cannot deny however what has been known after it has become clear.

MASSACRE IN ZAIDAO

The Orolkishi town of Tepashashar burning down

ZAIDAOZIBEN: Old ethnic tensions reignite rather literally in Zaidao in a brutal massacre by the barbarian profligate group called the Zaidao desiya vimeacana gruppi or ZDVG. Once their foul language is translated into Akai it means the Zaidao national liberation group, and it should be noted this group is unrelated to the Zaidao Akai Liberation Front (ZAJZ) in the republic of Zaidoese, the true liberators of the oppressed Akai in the puppet nation’s territory. The ZDVG in participation with an unidentified group of Ziyou who destroyed a large sections of the town with many lorries which carried particularly large explosive devices. This wiped out a large section of the settlement and left it particularly barren and littered with bodies. Then it seems that a systematic armed attack by armed combatants overwhelmed the poorly equipped local police force and began to slowly find and gather all people in the town and began to systematically kill them all, through a variety of means. Stomach guttings with machetes, shootings, burnings.

5,235 people dead.

Now an entire population of a small village lies dead thanks to these barbarians.

His perfection, Ditor Hulang I Lazin in a rare public appearance in Xuanjing-00 today to address the nation in this time.

“Brothers, sisters. This is obviously a dark time for our family in Zaidao. Being faced with modern barbarians and their ilk is not one many of us and be comfortable with. We endured fires, the pains of a quiet war.

Now these fools do not know the power they are fighting against, to touch us is like to touch a basilisk - suicidal. We do not care about coming back out alive. We accept that reality now like you do. We will watch as your scum are wiped of the face of the earth. And you will not suffer long for those who incite our wrath tend not to survive long. Our vengeance shall be swift. Our justice shall be right. And our will be unstoppable.”

It got later announced in a press release that a combined operation of Riyeskosu, SIA Section 3 and the NPF have all announced deployments to the region, with a planned total of three divisions worth of troops being deployed in the area.

The development has been widely approved by the general public in Xuanjing and in Zaidao with many voicing their support. Only a small minority of deviants disapproved of this development, regarding them as “a knee jerk reaction,” something which is categorically incorrect.

The NPF in particular has made plans to strengthen the military presence, with Prince-Marshal Qiang Lazin commanding the operations in Zaidao with a planned increase over the next few months to facilitate the destruction of non-affiliated terror cells.

Castellum ab Alba: As Latin forces began to circle the last remaining strongholds of the Hiburnian rebels and GSB terrorist elements, Consul of Vindóbona proclaimed an end to the “insurrection” and a “complete and total victory.” Currently, the Latin military occupies nearly all of Hiburnia, though the capital of the unrecognized Gelonian Republic in Cicutio has yet to be taken, and its leaders are yet to be captured. At the time of press, Latin forces were bombarding the mountain city of Cicutio.

Many expected the fighting between the Latin army and Gelonian forces to be a quick fight, but with the fighting continuing for nearly a year, many are calling for an end to the fighting on both sides. So far nearly 30,000 Latin servicemen and women have lost their lives in the fighting, and an estimated 22,000 Gelonian armed combatants dead. Polling in Latium shows an ever dropping support for the conflict, at a high 76% responding that the situation was severely mismanaged by the government and could have been avoided, but only a slim 9% of those placing that blame on the Emperor.

As the conflict is coming to an end, the question remains of what is to be done with Hiburnia, with the widespread destruction further complicating things, most notably in Drumanagh, the largest city in the area. Some in the Senate are calling for a return to the status quo and a new vote on the previous Hiburnian Autonomy Act. Others have pushed for a harsher stance, unwilling to acquiesce to allowing the Gelonians anything more than. And even fewer have begun to attempt to grow support for offering the Gelonian people a referendum vote for independence; but with the current state of the province and its weakened infrastructure, most note that independence may not be viable for a few years until the area is rebuilt.

The issue of a referendum also raises an important legal question of whether such a referendum may arise solely out of the Senate or if they must originate from the Emperor. The Consul noted that while "it is far to early to even bring up talk of any sort of referendum, any such action requires approval by and passage through the Senate." However, Imperial Offices claim the counterpoint that in "any such situation where a people's, province, etcetera wish to leave the Empire...assent for any such popular vote on the issue is required to come from the Emperor and Him alone.

*LHL Commissioner, and Drumanagh ownership confirm that defending champion Celtic Drumanagh HC will not play out the rest of the current season; hopes to resume play next season.
*Three senators defect from CDA to the Pompilian National Civic bloc.

Ravenna: Following a number of unconfirmed reports from Port Royale and a number of military sources, the Emperor confirmed that the Crown Dependency was attacked at 8:10 this morning by the nation of Heku. "We have been betrayed," the Emperor at the opening of his address to an emergency session of the Senate. Emperor Jason Augustus went on to describe the attack. “In an unprovoked attack, members of the border patrol, customs and military were the target in what we can only suspect is the first wave to conquer Port Royale and the Urcean Territory of Ecinis.”

As silence fell over the Senate from the description of the events unfolding in Port Royale, the Emperor officially declared war against the nation of Heku including “any and all of her allies in this endeavor,” while also authorizing the Senate and Consul of Vindóbona to issue sanctions against Hekuvia, sanctions that place a hold on any ongoing business operations and contacts with Hekuvian businesses, among other actions. Sanctions will also be taken to the League of Nations Security Council. “Let it be known that we will use any arms at our disposal to defeat an aggressive invader such as the nation of Heku.” The declaration of war was unanimously approved by the Senate. The Emperor went onto say that he expects all members of the Levantia and Odoneru Treaty Association to “honor Article Two of the organizations charter…and support Latium against this hostile invading” force. “Our success has distracted us,” the Emperor neared the end of his address. “The events in Hiburnia have distracted us from true threats…but we are distracted no more.”

Following the Emperor’s address to the Senate, prominent members of the legislative body took questions from the press, most of whom are members of the current governing coalition. As expected many of the questions were directed towards Consul of Vindóbona, and the vote of nearly a year ago that rejected an early transfer of Port Royale to Hekuvia. “The Treaty of Alba Arbor clearly lays out that an early transfer is made possible…it does not state that a proposal for early transfer is required to be assented to by Latium,” Vindóbona told the press. She continued by saying that “of any reaction that could come from a legal rejection of early transfer, war is not one of them.” The aforementioned Treaty of Alba Arbor called for the transfer of Port Royale to Hekuvia by 2038, with early transfers enabled with equal compensation.

While the Emperor’s response to calling for war has been met with approval, the Consul’s numbers slide as the Senate’s rejection of early transfer was made under her direction. The Consul called those responses laughable, but was not available for comment following the unexpected end of the Senate press conferences.

In an Imperial Offices press conference, it was stated that military personnel were making their way south to Urcea, with fleets departing to the Julia Bay. Representatives of the Emperor made only brief comments on the war, and the current happenings in Hiburnia. “The Emperor has mandated that Hiburnia will remain under a military administration for the immediate future…with a number of possibilities as to what comes after that, all of which are on the table,” Imperial Chief of Staff Tatian told the press. The military administration of the island will, however, see some form of civilian oversight in the form of an appointed committee, and the appointment of Duke of An t-Àrd Ruigh as First Minister of said committee.

Other Headlines:
*Emperor issues executive action to provide funding aimed at rebuilding Hiburnia.
*Op-ed: "Don't be expected to see more than one LOTA member refuse the Article II call to arms."
*Ambassador to League of Nations to seek sanctions against Heku.

Prime Minister Trapped By Regional Conundrum

32nd State Opening of the Legislature, Saturday August 1, 2020.
SOURCE: IMMBC Photographer Jordan Gerry Keit

The nations of Ixnay have gone mad. The Parliamentary Republic of Vieux had laid siege on a democracy that has even yet to last 12 months because the Somani government has chosen to prioritize its defenses and its armed affairs overseas, m aking themselves seem at fault and truly so to the Vieuxens. The Viridisian embassy in Somani City had opened their doors to those who wish for sanctuary out of mercy. His Imperial Majesty's Viridisian Ambassador to the Somanis placed the Viridisian foreign ministry and concerned governing entities to remain in stand by whether asylum would be offered. We've made sure that no Viridisian was harmed during the Vieuxen invasion of the Somani nation.

Then after war was declared by the Latin Emperor on the Hekuvians because of its aggression on Port Royale. Kiravians mobilized for war to defend the Latin Empire from the Hekuvian Imperium. Apollonis in turn declares war on Hekuvia. Shockingly, Kronata declares war on an entire alliance. The Azurans and Montemayoris smite a Vannoisian submarine and plunged the submersible warship into its watery grave. Finally and hopefully so, the Vieuxens have declared war on the Federal Socialist Republic of Baclów.

All this in a month and a half, a month and a half since the successor of Prime Minister Zakhar won the general elections. Thus was she appointed Prime Minister of Viridisolum. And the Right Honourable Leader has proven herself the Right 'Dishonourable' Leader. She has obviously failed to determine Viridisian foreign policy and has endangered the lives of our overseas citizens, especially those in the Somani Islands. The failure of Larenska in this regional conundrum not only exposed her weakness in geopolitics but it has shown that the Jiskadaryan has been trapped in the regional conundrum. And in these words I submit this motion of no confidence."
- Leader of His Imperial Majesty's Opposition Arata Henders' Jr. conclusion in his motion of no confidence against Prime Minister Elena Larenska.

^{Thursday February 19, 2026, 5:59:36 PM | The Imperial State of Viridisolum}

Minister of World Affairs, Jack Ueda: Cabinet members have decided to remain impartial on the matter until the situation needs our attention. For now, since our country has no qualm with or against countries in conflict, we will strive to attain peace nonetheless without armed conflict or any sort of provocation to such conflict. We are trying to put forward a diplomatic solution that would end these conflicts. We cannot promise that this will happen, we can only promise our will and effort for this initiative to succeed.

His Imperial Majesty's Government in Viridisolum has kept the Nations' foreign policy of armed neutrality. War is still never an option, not only to Viridisian politics, but to the entire country. People say that we have no obligation to intervene in regional conflict with blood and iron, though Viridisian patriots are making attempts to throw away national policy on foreign affairs in order to "actually do something for Ixnay and for Viridisolum." Viridisian patriots were found to be "quite unusual" in this instance since they have long supported armed neutrality. The Imperial and Apostolic University of Viridisolum, Political Science Department studies has determined that Viridisian patriotism is shifting ideals on foreign affairs due to the consecutive regional turbulence that led to wars. This turbulence is expected to continue and it will certainly drag more countries into war. The turbulence might be strong enough to even pull the Nation to be involved. It may be too strong that it might cause an all-out regionwide war. This depends within the next three months if the Latin Empire achieves a cease-fire, organizes a peace plan, and negotiates a peace deal, which is highly unlikely according to the Henstrakon College of Political Study because of the war-mongering nature and vengeful tendencies of Ixnayan powers, most of who are involved. The Ixnayan geopolitical giants would not dare to turn back from a fight. They prepared for war, gathered national commitment, and are poised for victory one way or another.

This series of armed confrontation and retaliation originated from the First Chancellor of the Somani People's Republic Louis Wattan's decision to aid Kiravian militants for the Gelonian Republic. The Viridisian Republic stated in their November issue last year that the Somani First Chancellor made a "grave mistake" on his first move in foreign affairs. As a young country, a newly born democracy, he should have steered away from any intention of building up military forces to disrupt foreign dilemmas. While it may be the right of any sovereign nation, one should have not demonstrated that his country is capable of armed intervention overseas at the very least. Assisting Kiravian militants who may or may not be terrorists no less would stain the Somani People's hard won fight for freedom, and eventually its downfall if it does not change its way.

According to the Most Honourable Chancellor Ellaia Medor, Viridisian Privy Councillor and Chairwoman of the Viridisian Green Cross, former Prime Minister Miroslav Zakhar tried to advice First Chancellor Louis Wattan not to commit any weaponry or servicemen to the Gelonian Republic or to any other state and to focus instead on economic development, completely away from defence or military build-up. Prime Minister Zakhar proposed to simply employ law enforcement for the integrity of national sovereignty and the prevalence of peace and order. Prime Minister Zakhar wanted for the Government of the Somani People's Republic to direct less attention on its defence affairs for Somani Independence to seem peaceful and just as exactly as it was promised to be. If this approach would not be taken at any form, the Government of the Parliamentary Republic of Vieux would be pushed to take action. Prime Minister Zakhar's advice may have been noted but were effectively ignored.

No changes were done by First Chancellor Louis Wattan in his foreign policy on the Kiravian Federacy.

The Parliamentary Republic of Vieux was very keen on the new Somani nation, particularly Prime Minister Francois Sarkozy. They being keen are not without reason. They have all the reason to be concerned since the Somani people and its national patrimony was once Vieuxen that was determined in a plebiscite vote on the May of the year before. It would not have gone too bad for the Somanis if their government ignored temptation of playing in the geopolitics of black guns and red menace, the Vieuxens would only annoy the Somani nation with diplomatic slurs and condescending communiques. But no, the Somani Government was determined and so was the Vieuxen Government. Prime Minister Sarkozy on a morning made a national address. Prime Minister Zakhar was right. That morning the Vieuxen air forces were ordered by the Viexuan Government to conduct an air strike on Louis Wattan's official residence as First Chancellor. Somani military installations were expected to suffer the same fate. It was not clear although if this fate would fall upon as well to the rest of the country.

Leader of H.I.M. Opposition the Honourable Arata K. Henders Jr., son of former First Minister of the Orakan Islands Arata K. Henders Sr., has been referring to Vieuxen military assault on the Somani People's Republic as an "invasion" during parliamentary debates. Notably and very recently in his speech on the Official Viridisian Opposition's motion for a vote of no confidence against the ruling government yesterday, targeted on the Right Honourable Prime Minister Zaibana Larenska. Opposition Leader Henders believed that the airstrikes of the Republican Air Guard were just the beginning of a goal to occupy the Lafayette Islands. He is evidently wrong within the next month and a half.

The Vieuxen air forces conducted further air strikes across the Somani People's Republic until an entire block of residential area in Somani was levelled. A Viridisian family that composed of a single father and three children were injured but no Viridisians were lost in life. The family was taken into the Embassy of Viridisolum in Somani City, a surprising outcome for the scholars at Imperial Apostolic University Political Science and Henstrakon College Political.

Prime Minister Francois Sarkozky, November of 2025: The head of the illegitimate government currently ruling the Lafayette Islands, he has now taken it upon himself to export his type of brash idiocy and support violent uprisings elsewhere. Today, it is with the Gelonian people…Tomorrow he may be inciting violence in our neighbourhoods, in Audonian communities, and at our school. I warned Wattan and his cohorts that if he did not see reason, if he did not return to the path of sanity, then we would deal him a blow he could not recover from – One dished out at a time of our choosing, and in a manner of our preference.

This is only one of many conflicts in the region and the only one that has been resolved so far, in a manner to achieve such a result. Prime Minister Zaibana Larenska not only faces questions and dilemmas on whether to act or not, she also faces inquiries from human rights and decolonization groups regarding League of Nations Proposal Number Seven which has yet to be voted. Prime Minister Zakhar promised it would come to pass in five months’ time. It is now the second month and no news about the controversial L.O.N. proposal.

Mounting pressure from the general public on Prime Minister Larenska's policies on the regional clash within and the seemingly forgotten L.O.N. obligation has placed the Prime Minister in doubt. And so H.I.M. Opposition Leader Kenders Jr. along with the coalition and supporting parties have submitted to the People's Assembly a motion for no confidence on H.I.M. Government. The motion is under debate and political spectators are impartial on what will happen. They are just not sure if the Prime Minister could get through this or not. It all depends on her future decisions, initiatives, and acts. If she survives it would be miracle, if she does not it will be shocking, shocking alone that she would become the shortest prime minister who has ever served, currently held by Viscount Florant de sol Aviscem, 10th Prime Minister of Viridisolum, who served for five months and 14 days after losing his life to pulmonary tuberculosis.

Prime Minister Larenska is on an ongoing engagement with the 40th Aboriginal Congress of the South Audonian Islands in the Mercantile Principality of Jiskadarya. The Prime Minister said earlier today in her speech to the delegates of the 40th Aboriginal Congress that she, the ministers, and other officers of state are devoting their concern and abilities on the conflicts across the region to which she has collectively called the "Ixnayan Rapture." Her speech despite promising action as she had for the past month no longer affects public opinion as much as it should be. The populace has directed their eyes and ears on what is going in Ixnay.

In Imperial Henstrakon and Central Viridisolum, many would like to have Prime Minister Zakhar back in office as they believe it is he who will make this regional rapture clear and in the light for Viridisians to understand at last. Some would like to have another general election. Few wanted for Prime Minister Larenska booted out by the Viceroyalty at least or the Monarchy at most so H.I.M. Opposition Leader Henders Jr. will be appointed prime minister. To those who remain are apathetic to the situation so as long as their lives do not depend on it, that or they just do not care.

Viridisians could say that we have no concern over these things until several of our marine vessels were delayed from their journey in order to be inspected out of subversive suspicion.

This week, Vieuxen Republican Naval Guard had stopped eight marine vessels and steam ships. A 8,850 ton large freighter the SS Ocean Trader of South Audonian Shipping Lines, a 6,843 ton freighter the MV Matilda Noriko Barstey of Southern Trader Incorporated, another 6,843 freighter the MV Ahnton Onassis of Southern Trader Incorporated, an 8,430 ton refrigerator ship the MV Noriko of New Valaran Ocean Shipping, a 21,739 ton bulk goods freighter the MV Emperata of New Valaran Ocean Shipping, an 80,000 ton ocean liner the MV Orient of Lerand Cruise Lines, a 22,080 ton ocean liner the SS Our Lady Of The Sea of Transocean Passage Liners, and a 20,500 ton cargo ship the SS Baker of Lerand Sea Cargo Transport. Ships from Southern Trader, New Valaran Ocean Shipping, and Lerand were inbound for the Somani People's Republic. Ships from South Audionian Shipping and Transocean Passage Liners were inbound elsewhere.

Crew aboard cargo vessels and cruise ships were not afraid and calmly welcomed the Vieuxen servicemen but passengers aboard cruises were alarmed. Dozens sent complaints to the Viridisian Maritime Authority. While the ports of registry may be Viridisian, the VMA does not have any authority overseas unless circumstances unmentioned force them to have so. A moderate reception has on the matter has circulated around the Nation. Nevertheless it was not taken too seriously - especially in the Confederation Legislature Building.

Prime Minister Larenska's regional conundrum may look to be quite innocent at this moment to her or to those who support her but sooner or later she will have to take it head on.

Government Palace: The inspection performed by Vieuxen naval forces of Viridisian marine vessels and steamships this week were not unprecedented. This ministry's counterpart in the Parliamentary Republic of Vieux have notified His Imperial Majesty's Government, especially the Viridisian Maritime Authority, Viridisian National Board on Exports and Imports, the Ministry of Trade, and the Ministry of World Affairs, about their policy on international waters under the Vieuxen armed forces area of patrol. No trade was disrupted nor any life harmed or lost. We are resolute, since there is absolutely no reason, to not initiate any sort of response.
