BACKSTORY

It is the year 2000, the East German side did not collapse in 1989, instead, the West collapsed after internal dissaray, and the East occupied the West, which is now known as the Hettstedt Democratic Republic, or Hettstedt Demokratische Republik. The Soviet Union, however fell, the reason is because of their glasnost and perestroika policies, which Hettstedt did not accept. However, Hettstedt has raised it's political and economical rights.
The world is shocked by the terror attack counts raising up, and a new generation has opened up with much more abilities and weapons.
Your nation, your glory.

Greater Jugoslav News

Comrades, women, men, children, and all other citizens of the Greater Jugoslav Republic. Today we remember the life of our great leader, the man who forged our great socialist republic. The great marshal Josip 'Tito' Broz. The Croat-Slovene peasant who grew up to lead the Partisans who through blood, sweat, tears, and sacrifice threw the Fascists, The Nazis, the Nationalists, and the bourgeois rich from our lands and lead us to greatness. Together, united forever in friendship and Labour, our great republics under his guidance endured every challenge that has been thrown at us.

Today we say to the world. We will never yield. We are united together and we will prosper.



Today we announce our production of the new M-99 tanks and their entrance into service with the Jugoslav Peoples army.

LONG LIVE BROTHERHOOD AND UNITY IN JUGOSLAVIA.

Good morning!

Large protests occurred today in Berlin, which demanded increasing welfare and healthcare spending. The Volkspolizei, or People's Police, quickly responded to the event by dispatching units to the area to arrest the dissenters on charges of racketeering and 'rioting'. The Volkspolizei was forced to use extensive measures to arrest the dissenters.
However, the government has pledged to the citizens that it will 'increase welfare & healthcare funding next year'.
Other people have criticized the Volkspolizei of brutality in controlling the riot, where photos of people being beat up and hit by batons circulate around the internet.
The Government has said that these measures were required, as the people had been 'resisting' and 'picking fights', however, photos of the start of the protest show that protesters did not use violence, and were even shouting "No Violence!"

Sky News Special Report,

Good Evening, this is Margaret Cummings signing in for a Sky News Special Report.

Berlin was wracked with violence as riot police clashed with protesters earlier today, leading to a slew of arrests and subsequent imprisonment of several hundred peaceful protesters. This comes as videos and photos were immediately leaked to the internet showing riot police grabbing and brutally beating various protesters before arresting all involved en mass. The Hettstedt Government claimed that "these measures were required, as the people had been 'resisting' and 'picking fights'."



In today's session of Parliament, Prime Minister Richard Upton called these actions "brutal and despicable" and "tools only for an oppressive regime to keep it's population in check". And while Prime Minister Upton staved off questions on the use of torture of North English prisoners, he did have this to say; "North England is a blatant, and present threat, especially with their close relation the Hettstedt regime in Berlin".



This comes as a large scale skirmish between the Communist "Free Republican Army" 23rd Motor Rifle Division and members of the 1st Royal Scottish Tank Brigade happened just last week, resulting in the capture of 39 Prisoners of War. While this alone is an alarming uptick in hostilities from the North, it seems that both sides have moved more forces to the "3-6 line", as well as the mobilization and deployment of more than 6,000 reservists to the Netherlands and Belgium.

What will happen in the coming days has yet to be seen,
This is Margaret Cummings for Sky News, signing off.

Carter D.C. News Special

November 21, 2000

This morning President J. Edgar Hoover gave a series of speeches in the nations capital calling for the creation of a league of capitalist nations in the world. An excerpt from the speech is below.

...capitalism is threatened, there is no doubt. Free markets throughout the world are being pervaded by both socialist and communist elements. From the United States, to England, to France, to even India, the freedoms and truths which we hold self evident are constantly being stripped of from people throughout the world. Therefore, I call for the creation of the World Capitalist Alliance and Treaty Organization and invite any and all free markets in the world to a summit in Carter D.C., the capital of the United States of Unfreedom, three months from now on February 21, 2001.

---

In other news, the United States Ninth Fleet is being sent to the Philippine Islands where it will be permanently stationed. President J. Edgar Hoover called this action "necessary for world peace". This news comes less than a day after the news of the deployment of the 88th Airborne Division of the United States Army in the French provinces of Alsace-Lorraine to aid in peace-keeping processes there.

This image shows the super-carrier, the USS Joe Steele, of the Ninth Fleet leaving Naval Base San Diego on its way to the Philippine Islands.

---

The last thing for this special report is President J. Edgar Hoover's announcement of his trip to the Hettstadt Demokratische Republik to negotiate many items currently on the President's "lunch tray". His trip is the first trip of a President to Germany ever since the beginning of World War 2 and the eventual defeat of Nazi Germany.

ISLAMOPHOBIA ON HEAVY RISE IN RUSSIA!


Two Russian Police Officers interrogate a man about the suspected location of a underground Islam Mosque while a Cadet (white shirt) watches on. (Courtesy to Russia Today photographer Mikhail Tkatch for this picture.)

In the years following the dissolution of the USSR. Islamophobia has been on the rise in Russia due to terrorist attacks and the Soviet-Afghan war which left many Russians dead. Russian police forces have been cracking down on underground Islam Mosques in Moscow, St. Petersburg with arrests skyrocketing. The question that is often asked; "What happens to the Muslims once they are arrested?" when we asked Chief Prosecutor Natasha Yasevich who handles the Prosecution of criminals in Crimea in which a majority of Muslims are often found due to their historical involvement in said region. She said that most Muslims are stripped of their citizenship and deported to accepting nations such as Kazakhstan or former states of the USSR which have a majority muslim population. This policy has been met with criticism from rival nations and the United Nations.


SUPREME GENERAL CALLS FOR CLOSER RELATIONS WITH WEST!


Supreme General of the Russian Federation Vladimir Dmitriev in his office, reading over some papers.

Supreme General of the Russian Federation Vladimir Dmitriev has called for closer relations with the United States and Britannia and Jugoslavia. The leader of Russia has declared that he wishes for the formation of a alliance between the two superpowers as he believes that a partnership between the two nations could prevent future economic ruin such as the ones previous seen while keeping terrorism at bay from the two nations. The 1993 World Trade Center bombing has been a pivotal point in Russia trying to mend it's Cold-War era relations with the United States. Supreme General of the Russian Federation Vladimir Dmitriev has called for open meetings between the two superpowers but has not heard a reply from the leader of the nation.

From the Government of the Monarchist Republic of Britannia

While your style of government is enough to cause most Members of Parliament to question this action, but it seems that we have a common enemy in the form of Communism and the Hettstedt government currently in power in Berlin. While relations during the cold war between mother England and father Russia were icy, to say the least, the Upton government is willing to offer you a non-aggression pact, as long as you halt the deportation and persecution of Muslims in your country, nothing more, nothing less. Further more, if this deal works out for the better, there might be more lucrative agreements and treaties on their way.

We have rampant extremism from Muslims in Russia, and it is my duty to protect the people from the recent terror attacks that have been happening in Russia, specifically in the recent Moscow hostage taking of a school by Chechen muslims. But we can offer you a lucrative deal that will hopefully seat you right. We realize your political situation is currently tough. Your country is divided. The cause of this division is nothing more then by Anarchists, communists who seek to destroy our nations by the seems and install their perverted governments who will bow down to the German Shepard in Berlin. I realize that our governments is different, very different but if we can work out a alliance without forcing my nation to change it's beliefs or yours. It would be better in the long-term. We have spies in the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea who have uncovered important intel that relates to a possible terrorist attack right in London. We are facing not the Mujahideen that the Red Army faced in the 1980s nor the Mujahideen that attacked America in 1993 at the World Trade Center. We are in a new world. This new world brings Political Mujahideens. Those who seek to bring communism right to your doorstep. I for one, don't want a world oppressed by a Islamic Caliphate where my daughters are sold in to sexual slavery in their very home of Moscow which is more unislamic then France. I also don't want a world oppressed by a Communist Worldwide Government that oppresses my daughters.

The choice is yours, I won't force you to change your beliefs for our alliance but keep in mind. I am ready to support the reunification of your country with military might or covert means.

Signed,
Supreme General of the Russian Federation Vladimir Dmitriev

From: The Foreign Minister of Jugoslavia: Ivan Stambolic
To: The government of the Fascist Republics of Greater Russia

Former comrades of the no longer Soviet Union and Fathers of the Slavs. It is with heartfelt sadness that my duty as the Foreign minister of The Federal Socialist Republics of Greater Jugoslavia that although we know your cause and your objectives that we, as the founders of the non aligned movement and as a socialist federal republic must, at least for now. Decline closer military relations between our two great countries. Doing so, although in many of our peoples best interests will compromise the integrity of our Constitution that was implemented after the death of Comrade Marshall Tito. You must understand that we have to maintain our neutrality.

On other matters I have been honored to ask on behalf of the Jugoslav state council to negotiate the purchase of a production licence for the 2S19 Msta 152mm self propelled artillery piece.

Good morning!

The President had recently said in an speech at an press conference that "Russia and South England borh brag about freedoms and civil rights, however in South England people from the North are tortured in prison. We look at Russia, too. If they were muslim extremists you are arresting, why do I see arrests skyrocket a 'bit' too much? Also, why do you need to close peaceful mosques? I wonder, maybe because Russia is attempting to revive an certain nazi reģime? And South England is supporting them. See the symptoms? They are oppressing religious minorities and brutally torturing prisoners. They are no better than us. They are worse, therefore we cannot let these fascist monsters to begin something similar that has happened before...", when asked about the South England militiarization in the Netherlands and Belgium, the President responded by "We have 2,000 nuclear & chemical agents we are ready to use if South England ever poses an threat. Frankly, I don't worry."

DEFENDING RUSSIA OUR HIGHEST PRIORITY, DEFENDING EUROPE IS NEXT!


Colonel General Andrey Kartapolov at the Emergency Military Summit called after news of Hettstedt announced it had nuclear agents.

says Colonel General Andrey Kartapolov at the Military Summit. He said that Russia will resort to defending Britannia and and neighboring countries that Hettstedt borders with military action. He added that Russia's nuclear launch facilities have been put on a Stage 2 alert. The highest they have been since the end of the Cold War. Colonel General Andrey Kartapolov commented "currently, our missiles are aimed at military targets, it's not our intention to strike cities. It is not our intention to bow down to a nation that falsely accuses our country of crimes against humanity which it has not committed!" which was met with a thunder of applause from the crowd which was mostly military officers, and the Supreme Generals cabinet and the Supreme General of the Russian Federation Vladimir Dmitriev himself who later approached the microphone and begun speaking after that, "As Comrade Colonel General Andrey Kartapolov put it. We will not bow down to the communist nation who thinks it's bad and is lying about everything. A wise move from the Hettstedt would backing down from it's high horse before it gets itself in to a bad position."

Berlin - Hettstedt - 9:49 AM - November 22nd, 2000
A black Trabant drove down Karl Marx Platz, the two men in it carefully surveyed the sights as they drove through the formerly divided Berlin. The man turned to the passenger and said, "Beautiful day, yes?" while driving carefully through the street. The passenger nodded, keeping his side folding AK-74 down to his lap out of sight. The Russian Embassy appeared in the far off sight. They both nodded, the passenger taking a balaclava from the glovebox. He quickly slid it on, reaching in to the glovebox once again. The passenger pulled a green bandana which had arabic writing on it out of the glovebox. He quickly tied it around the skimask while the driver did the same. The black Trabant was edging closer to the Russian Embassy. The driver nodded as the passenger rolled down the window, picking up the AK-74 unfolding it's stock while doing so. He leaned out of the window and aimed at the Embassy, not caring if the rounds hit any citizens or any Embassy staff. The passenger quickly yelled "Allahu akbar!" while moving his finger to the trigger, applying pressure. The firing pen struck the bullet. The bullets begun ripping out of the AK-74 down towards the Embassy and any innocent bystanders. The bullets kept striking the Embassy and any innocent bystanders caught in the middle of it. The car suddenly hit a pothole and a piece of string connected to a Suicide Vest gets wrapped around a piece of metal in the car. The gunman jerks, his vest moving as he did so. The string being tugged gives, ripping but not before pulling the ignition pin. The passengers suicide vest explodes outside of the Russian Embassy in Hettstedt.



((OOC: I'll let you choose how many are injured Hettstedt.))

[Hettstedt]

Berlin | Hettstedt Demokratische Republik | November 22nd | 10:06AM



The Volkspolizei and the Rettungdienst quickly sped to the scene and arrived. The Volkspolizei secured the perimeter while the Rettungdienst quickly ran inside the building to try to save the lives of the wounded. The lobby was destroyed, with bullet cases everywhere in the burning Trabant. The fire quickly calmed down, and the Ministerium fur Staatsicherheit, or Stasi quickly began examining the area for any signs.
61 people were wounded and 37 had died in the attacks.
The Stasi had rolled the cameras near the embassy and before the shots, an scream of "Allahu Akbar!" could be heard from the Trabant. The Stasi, after examining the attackers portfolio, found out that the men had immigrated to Hettstedt in 2014 from Russia. The Stasi were thinking that the attack was done by Russian Intelligence Services so that the Stasi or other agencies would begin oppressing the minorities to picture Hettseadt as an oppressive and brutal reģime. Religion was allowed in Hettstedt, but you weren't allowed to mention it or pray in public. People would usually pray in home, and each religion had 5 'bases' all over the nation to allow some religious followers. However, only 0.3% of Hettstedters were muslim/islamic.
The Stasi and government did not want to take any risks, so those responsible for the attacks were arrested and martial law was imposed in Berlin for 48 hours.

South England | Central London | November 22nd | 3:47AM

It was an quiet and busy night in London, the stars blazed across the sky, people were playing in casinos and bustling around center shopping malls, enjoying the night life of London.
Two FIAT trucks in green with 20 people inside each one were driving around the city. Little did the police know that these men were armed with AKMs and they also had forged Russian passports. Then, one of the trucks parked outside an central shopping mall in London, and the other parked at the most popular gambling area in London. Truth was, that all of the people were working for the Stasi and were preparing an attack in London. 20 people left each of the trucks, 20 stormed the casino, and 20 others stormed the shopping mall. They screamed "FOR RUSSIAN PRIDE! DEATH TO ENGLAND, DEATH TO ENGLAND, RUSSIA DESTROYS ENGLAND!" as they both teams began shooting at everyone in the mall and casino. People were dropping dead, and it was much easier because each of the places only had 10 security guards each.

People were dying, and bullet cases were flying. After the initial shooting, it had been estimated that already 190 people had died, and then, suddenly, both teams, before the arrival of the Police, two men both in one team clicked an button and suddenly, all of the men exploded, before that screaming "THIS IS WHAT YOU GET, YOU ENGLISH SCUM!" in an Russian accent. These were Russian people from Hettstedt, which immigrated from Russia and began working for the Stasi. There would be no way that the UK Military Intelligence Service 5 or the Military Intelligence Service 6 could find out it was the Stasi because of the Russian accent, descent, and passports. The Stasi were hoping the MI5 & MI6 would come to an conclusion that the attacks occurred because the Russian nation was actually luring England in their affection sphere, and did the terror attack to create an internal disorder to launch attacks at London from Russia to capture South England.

Austrian Border | Hettstedt Side | 2:41AM



The Volksarmee marched across the border of Austria, entering the Austrian side and greeting the guards. The Hettstedt Army was met with medium resistance from the Austrian side, however the forces in the end defeated the border guards. It was declared that an state of war now exists between Hettstedt and Austria. The forces continued on marching city by city, to Vienna, with artillery, tanks and APCs going infront of them, destroying the Austrian Army. T-72s pounded the Austrian forces, with medium losses. In an speech in the house of parliament, the President of Hettstedt said "Austria is an independent nation due to an historical mistake. They are the same as us, therefore we feel as they would be better to be united with us. We ask other nations of the world not to intervene, as this conflict is none of your concern. We ask other nations not to begin starting rebellions. Austria is not righteous to it's independence. It must be brotherly united with us." the President said in an speech.

Czech Border | Hettstedt Side | 2:57AM

The Volksarmee also marched across into the Czech Republic, and due to Czech minimal forces, the Volksarmee is almost at the capital, Prague. The President justified this attack by saying "The Czech Republic had attempted to instigate an invasion of Hettstadt. 20 Czech soldiers attacked the Hettstedt side, but were quickly repelled. This is an retaliation attack." when in real, it was an false-flag operation which was filmed with supposed 'Czech' soldiers 'invading' Hettstadt and 'capturing an city'.

40,000 feet above the French and Hettstedt border, November 22nd, 12:35 AM

President J. Edgar Hoover reclined in his seat onboard the modified Boeing 747, which had modifications to it he still didn't know. "Mr. President, we just passed over the French and Hettstedt border." said the pilot, mispronouncing the German state with a very southern accent. Hoover checked out the window and watched as the three F-15 Eagles that were escorting the 747 rolled off to either side, returning to airbases in France. "Mr. President, the Hettstedt military command knows of our approach and is arranging fighter escort to Berlin." said the same pilot. "Thank you." said Hoover closing his eyes for a nap.

30 km from the city of Saarbrücken, France, November 22nd, 1:00 PM

Colonel Joseph Turner and his brigade were examining some of the still existent forts of the Maginot Line. "This was a different type of warfare." noted one of Joseph's comrades. "Yeah, jet aircraft and the bomb have rendered forts useless." said Joseph kicking a chunk of concrete out of the way. "So what happens if the Germans just decide to roll over the border with all they've got?" asked the same man to Joseph. "Well, we've got the entire United States Airfare behind us and the 3rd and 17th Armored Divisions that are stationed back in Nancy." said Joseph leaning against the ruins of a French fort.

Hettstedt Air Space Command

"The USU President has entered our airspace. Dispatch 2 Mikoyan MiG-29s to approach aircraft and protect it." said an man monitoring the radar.
"Affirmative." as soon as that was said, 2 MiG-29s took off and began flying to the plane.

Next to the USU President's airplane



"This is C-401 & C-402, both Mikoyan MiG-29. We are approaching your airplane which is transporting the President. We are approaching your airplane." the pilot said in bad English with an German accent.
"Roger." said the Captain of the USU airplane. Soon after 15 minutes, the two MiG-29s were escorting the Boeing, two MiG's each at one wing.

Police Sergeant Rupert Grint,
Central London

"Bloody Hell." Was the first thought that crossed through the mind of Sergeant Grint as he observed the crime scene. He arrived an hour after it all transpired and even then, he almost threw up at the carnage. "Sergeant Grint." A man said from behind. "Special Agent Howards, MI6, what do you know of what transpired here?" Grint looked at the man from MI6, and scoffed. "Well, as you can see, from security footage, we have two men walking into the mall and started firing on civilians. According to statements taken by witnesses, these men started shouting "Death to England. Russian Pride. And all that bullshit, then they walked into the casino and started shooting up that area. It seems once they ran out of bullets, they used suicide vests and car bombs to blow up the immediate area. All in all, we have about 300 dead with another 250 wounded. We've recovered passports linking them to Russia, and the accents point to the Fascist as well, but one thing that really doesn't sit well, is what would the Russians have to gain from this? It's not like we've tried to over through their government, all we've done is just publicly chastise them for their handling of the Muslims over there." The MI6 operative looked Grint in the eye. "You are very perceptive for a simple sergeant, and you are correct, "What would the Russians have to gain by attacking?", absolutely nothing. And we both know they aren't petty enough to attack just because we whine about a few Muslims being deported, I honestly believe that this is either home brew or the Hettstedt." He took a drink of water. "After all, they supported the Communist North and we kicked the shit out of them in the south, cost them a lot of seasoned fighters. Also we just deployed another 6,000 troops to the Low Lands, so they are under immense pressure from us. But, since this is just speculation, we'd have to go with what he have here. The Russians would almost certainly deny any involvement, either by labeling these men radicals or Islamo-terrorists, or do what we're doing, blame the Hettstedt." The two men continued speculating as the night ran on.

Telegram to Moscow
From the Monarchist Republic of Britannia,

I am sure you know of the terror attack here in central London and the recent land grab by the Hettstedtian government. I find it rather disconcerting that these events happen at the same time. Also, the English people aren't idiots, we know that this wasn't sanctioned by your government, as neither of us have anything to gain from this attack. If anything, it was an attempt by radicals to through us into a war. Be careful and know if a similar attack occurs in Moscow, St. Petersburg, or Novogorad, it wasn't us.

20 km from Berlin, Hettstedt, 1:30 PM

The Boeing 747 had flown through a flock of pigeons on its flight to Berlin, and as such, three of the four engines were completely down. The last engine was severely overheating and there were no airports to make an emergency landing in except for Berlin International. "We have to make an emergency landing in Berlin." said the pilot calmly over the radio to both ATF on the ground and the two fighters flanking him. "I ask if the runway at Berlin International could be cleared for an emergency landing, we have one severely overheated engine that is functioning." said the pilot again trying to get there attentions. The pilot could see the city of Berlin in the distance and prayed for the best.

[Hettstedt]

Czech Republic | Prague

The Hettstedt flag flew on the capital city as soon as the Hettstedt forces reached the capital. This meant that they, in de facto means, had the whole land area. Soon, troops marched to Brno and many Czech people were arrested after attempting to attack Hettstedt soldiers.

Austria | Vienna

Vienna was also captured. The Czech Republic and Austria were now a part of Hettstedt. The forces cheered in bars in Vienna, and were particularly welcomed by citizens of Vienna.

Berlin International Airport

"The fucking USU plane is coming straight towards Berlin! They have no fucking engines!" the MiG-26 pilots send an telegram to the airport. It was an high risk that the plane could crash in Central Berlin, but the airport quickly sent an message to the Boeing 747 that was approaching Berlin, with no engines. "You are allowed to land at Berlin International. We hope for the best."

Stasi Headquarters | Hettstadt

The Chief looked at his Supervisors and had already debated the installment of regional Stasi HQ in Austria and in the Czech Republic. He then came to the topic of Central London. He said "The UK knows we did this. We will lay down for a while and just try to look normal, we hate being seen as terrorist idiots. It's time for peace in Europe. We can't let war erup-" he was interrupted by an Supervisor screaming "Are you an idiot?! These fascist and capitalist pigs will kill us in no time! We have to attack Poland and France!" the Supervisor was then thrown out of the room. The other Supervisors agreed to what the Cheif said, and Stasi would lay inactive for the next month.

Luxembourg | Luxembourg

The Volksarmee quickly marched into the small nation and swiftly and without resistance, annexed it. Hettstadt was slowly becoming the nation it once was... in 1933.

Berlin, Hettstedt, 2:01 PM

"Pull up! Pull up!" screamed the pilot to his co-pilot as the 747 flew over the city. "That's not the airport, but we can't go any further." said the pilot again as the plane strained to make the simplest of maneuvers. With high-rise buildings lining the sides of the road, it looked like a highway, the enormous plane began its descent. Bystanders on the sidewalks ran and screamed as the beastly aircraft attempted to force itself between two high-rise apartment buildings, with less than satisfactory results. The right wing of the 747 slammed into the side of one of the apartment buildings, tearing a gaping hole in the building and ripping the wing off of the aircraft. The resulting collision caused the plane to whip around as the wing was torn from it. The 747 then crashed directly on top of another building adjacent the apartment buildings, creating a huge explosion of jet fuel and military grade defensive weapons.

OFFICIAL TELEGRAM TO BERLIN

Dear Sir/Madam,

It has come to the government's attention that you are refusing to respect the sovereignty of the countries that you border. With the benefit of hindsight from Nazi Germany, we see an alarming similarity to your plans to expand the reach of communism. We demand that you stop immediately and withdraw from Luxemburg, Austria and the Czech Republic. If you do not accept withdrawal to immediate effect, we, the United Kingdom of Harold I will intervene militarily to ensure these European countries have the right to self determination.

Yours Sincerely,
John Helleger
PM of Ireland

Central London,
10 Downing Street

Prime Minister Upton looked most displeased at the current map of Europe. His father lived through the Blitz and rode into Germany as a Black Beret and his Grandfather fought the Hun during the First World War. "What does the United Nations have to say about this?" He asked Minister of Defense General Sir Nicholas Houghton. "It looks eerily similar to the Second World War. My guess is that the Huns will go after the Poles then the French." Upton looked to Phillip Hammond, his Minister of Foreign Affairs. "What does Chirac and Kwaśniewski think about this?" Hammond took his time before speaking. "While their officially Neutral in this whole affair, they did express fear in Hettstedt's aggressive approach to diplomacy, and Kwaśniewski is considering asking for military aid in the form and advisers, updated equipment and possibly front line soldiers." Upton sighed. "Gentlemen, we are in a position where whatever move we make, we are damned for it. Grant Kwaśniewski that aid and have advisers over in Warsaw and Krakow immediately. I also want Chirac on the phone to see about adding the MRB to that Multi-National Defense Force." Within twelve hours of his orders, soldiers were already on their way to Poland and France along with the equipment they needed to fight a war. Upton looked out the window and stood there with a glass of Brandy. Houghton was also present, along with Hammond. "Gentlemen, what is our strength at home?" Houghton coughed a little before replying. "One million, sir, but we still have all our reservists who have been put on stand by." "Good, I want you to begin activating them and training them." Upton said, watching the fog creep up from the Thames. "Is Kwaśniewski satisfied with what we brought him?" "Yes, he said it was more than he needed, and he started updating his armor to match former NATO standards and our advisers have started beating the old Soviet doctrine of suicide charges out of the Poles. We might have a viable match for Hettstedt soon. And if anything, it's improving their economy as their GDP and income is starting to rise." Upton smiled. "Good, now what does Berlin have to say about this?" "Fuck Berlin." The room burst into laughter and Upton looked at the two men before refilling his glass and raising it. "Here's to fucking Berlin." One of Upton's aids ran into the room. "Sir, a USU plane carrying President Hoover crashed in Berlin! That is the latest from radio chatter on both sides of the Pond." The mood went from joyous to somber as all three men knew what would happen next. "I want the Vice President here immediately. I want to make sure he is as devoted to stopping the Communists as I am."

OFFICIAL TELEGRAM TO LONDON

To Britannia,

We express the exact same fears of the expansion of Hettstedt, and my government is willing to sign a pact which officially makes us allies with you to halt the expansionist nature we are currently seeing. Although we ourselves are mild socialists, we do not share the same values as Hettstedt; we allow the freedom of speech and limited private enterprise, which means we are more relaxed about our policy towards capitalism and imperialism (hence why we still maintain a monarchy). If you would like to become allies, I would welcome the decision to defend the will of the European people.

Yours Sincerely,
John Helleger
PM of Ireland

New Birmingham, Parliament House

John Helleger, the Prime Minister, was at his desk finishing writing a draft budget for the coming year. Sitting restlessly, he turned on his laptop when there was a sudden and frantic knocking on the door.
"Enter!" he demanded. He was mightily surprised to see his military advisor standing in the doorway. He appeared to be short of breath.
"What is it, why are you out of breath?" he asked, "Come on man, speak up!". Commander Johnson coughed, his posture bent forwards to regain his breath. He looked up to the Prime Minister, his eyes glazing slightly at the sides. The chimes of the cathedral could be heard from a mile away. Deadly quiet.
"Code Red" whispered Johnson. It took Helleger roughly a minute before he responded.
"Tell me all that you know." he said, alarmed. Code red hadn't been in force since the Second World War.
"It's Hettstedt, the communists have started expanding, much like the Nazis were in '39. They've already taken control of Luxemburg, Austria and the Czech Republic. We fear that it's going to be Slovakia, Poland or France next. Russia and Southern England are possibly going to sign a non-aggression pact. If we don't act now, we may not be able to handle the communist forces and lose. We need your instruction, and from the King before we attack." PM Helleger stared at Commander Johnson for a little while.
"I'm not going to lie," he admitted, "I'm not happy about getting involved militarily, but for the good of Europe and the world, I think it is our duty to defend the free will of these people. Go and tell the King immediately that I approve of this motion".

Berlin | Hettstedt Demokratische Republik



An Volkpolizei Colonel, Patrick Fjager was driving down the streets in Central Berlin, listening to Helloween in ost-Berlin when suddenly the radio calmed down when he heard an air-raid siren. He thought to himself "Have the Russians launched shit at us?".. "No, it isn't possible" he thought. He then got an shocking message on his radio "Hallo, Unit zweiundvierzig?" (TRANSLATION: Hello, Unit 24?) said the dispatcher. "Ja, ja, Ich bin hier." (TRANSLATION: Yes, yes, I'm here.)
"Boeing 747 crash in Central Berlin - USU President's plane." he thought "Fucking hell.." "... requesting you secure the perimeter."
"Ja, Ich hore. Ich komme." (TRANSLATION: Yes, I hear. I'll come.)

He arrived at the scene and saw everything on fire - he secured the area from any citizens to protect them from getting injured. The Stasi & People's Army was at the scene, too. He saw an woman under the rubble, and he ran over there, he said "Hallo! Uh.. are you ok?" he helped the woman out of the rubble, and she said "Yeah.. thanks."
"What is your name?" Patrick asked "Oh.. It's Lara, nice to meet you." "Anyways, I have to go.. I live at Feldjaeger Street, 781, so drop a post card when you can. Bye!" Patrick said as he ran off.
He then was, after many hours, had his shift ended. He went home and went to sleep.


Berlin | Volks Komittee

The People's Defense Committee had gathered. The Minister of Defense said "We are receiving threats from Ireland, South England and many other nations. They are telling us to withdraw. But we will not withdraw. However, we will send them an message soon after the Polish land grab has ended."

Polish & Slovakian Border

The Hettstedt Volksarmee had not given the Slovakians nor the Polish time to quickly militarize their borders, and the Hettstedt Forces quickly marched over the border. Following this, the President released an message to the world.

TO THE WORLD,
Do not worry. We are just regaining our previous teritorry that had been illegally given to the Polish SSR after the end of WW2 and the Molotov-Ribentrop Pact. We believe this previously German teritorry, that still holds German heritage, should belong to our nation. We will not occupy all of Poland, therefore that should not be an worry. Slovakia has been attacked due to their help of an rebel group in the Czech Republic that is responsible for 60 German deaths. We will not tolerate this ethnic cleansing of our population.
Therefore, we ask the nations of NATO and other alliances to stand down. There has also been an Boeing 747 crash with the USU President in Central Berlin. We ask you to support us in this tragedy.
We apologize if we have scared many nations. If launches will be attacked, we will not be afraid to use our newly acquired SCUD-Bs and possibly, the SCUD-A. We are not afraid to defend our nation. Attack, and you can say goodbye to Paris, London, Moscow, St.Petesburg, Rome."
