How efficient is it? Was there ever a time where it was misused and caused panic, or it was failed to be activated and put people in danger?

The Providence Attack, as told by resident survivor of the Providence Attack, Mr. Alu Murato.

The Providence Attack, known by the locale as the Terror of New Leo, was a terror attack that struck New Leo nearly fourty years back. I was only ten at the time, and the ANEBS was a new idea post-civil War. Ulivian Resistance Forces attacked the Arkanian Military base, then anything within a ten mile radius. Nearly one thousand people died, I was damn almost one of 'em. I was grazed in the arm by some Ulivian f****** with an AR. The alarms were prepped to go, but looked like the person ready to hit it was killed in the original attack. That time period, the ANEBS was run by the Army, after this, it was run by the government.

What are the emergency categories?

CODE 0 - Tests. Weekly activated.
CODE 1 - Amber Alerts, Silver Alerts, Local Robberies. Small things.
CODE 2 - Small weather events, such as small tornadoes, Tropical Storms, and Severe weather. Most common category used.
CODE 3 - High Police activity, Active shooter, and local riots. Used in such events as the Uliv unification Riots.
CODE 4 - Major Robberies/Heists, Major Riots, and Medium strengthed weather events, such as Tornadoes (F1-F3) and Hurricanes (C1-3). Used at least once every year, thanks to Hurricane season.
CODE 5 - Major weather events, such as Tornadoes (F4 - F5), Hurricanes (C4 - C5), or any other abnormal weather patterns. Used sparcly in history.
CODE 6 - Imminate danger to major amount of population, such as terrorist activity and earthquakes of major scales. Activated five times since the inception of ANEBS.
CODE 7 - Nuclear event, Invasion, Arkan sinking into the sea, The leader dying. Only activated once when David Sasa was assasinated.
CODE BLACK - Apocolyptic event. Never triggered before, hopefully never will.

[Newne Carriebean7]

Does your nation have a nationwide emergency warning system (like the EAS in the United States or J-Alert in Japan).
Yes The Carriebean Emergency Broadcasting Network or CEBN
What mediums can it broadcast on?
Radio, TV, and Newspapers for no damned reason.
Which government office manages it?
The Department of Propaganda and Truths of the Government
How efficient is it? Was there ever a time where it was misused and caused panic, or it was failed to be activated and put people in danger?
not very efficient in it's current form, many of the radio waves are destroyed and disrupted because of the many carriebean nuclear lottery tests.
What are the emergency categories?
T1- Terrorist threats, everyday stuff, nuclear bombings
T2- Nuclear lottery winners get a warning and cannibals are turned loose to fishes and underwater potatoes.
T3- Invasions, nuclear enemy strikes, natural disasters
If you would like, give a demonstration message:

Any other information?

[Victorious Decepticons]

Does your nation have a nationwide emergency warning system (like the EAS in the United States or J-Alert in Japan). Yes

What mediums can it broadcast on? Radio, holovision, and a huge network of loudspeakers that cover streets and arenas

Which government office manages it? The Decepticon Military. It can also be used directly by Leader Megatron.

How efficient is it? Was there ever a time where it was misused and caused panic, or it was failed to be activated and put people in danger? Extremely efficient. It has never been misused or failed to have been activated.

What are the emergency categories? Invasion.

If you would like, give a demonstration message: [Megatron's voice comes on] "Attention, Decepticons! A bunch of [derogatory term] have made the fool mistake of attacking Great Cybertron itself! Attack, attack! Show them the power of the Decepticons! Blast them out of the skies! Attack NOW!"

Any other information? After the above announcement, every single person who is at least mostly sapient and functioning properly is to immediately transform and fly into the fray. With over 15 billion of us, that is a LOT of defenders who will all be blasting the invaders in a giant swarm. We're also all giant transforming sapient war robots. Note the war robots part - we're all built fully-armed right from the start. On top of this, all adults who aren't currently in the military have served at least one conscription stint, so we all know exactly how to use those energy blasters of ours and how to form huge battlegroups (as well as ones of other sizes). In short, it is a really, really bad idea to attack Planet Cybertron itself.

[Flarbinia]

Does your nation have a nationwide emergency warning system (like the EAS in the United States or J-Alert in Japan). Yes

What mediums can it broadcast on? Radio, view screen, and holographic projectors

Which government office manages it? Flarbinian Military

If you would like, give a demonstration message: "Attention, Flarbinian citizens! The enemy is at the gates. Report to assigned bunkers and/or evacuation zones. Please show your identification at all times. Report any suspicious activity. Flarbinia prevails!"

Any other information? Classified

[Pantalm]

Does your nation have a nationwide emergency warning system (like the EAS in the United States or J-Alert in Japan). Yes. The current public address system, further known as the Overseer, also broadcasts emergency messages besides reciting verses from the Bible during peacetime, codenamed "Trumpet"

What mediums can it broadcast on? The Overseer's emergency broadcasts (and verses) are transited via FTL x-rays containing analog signals into televisions, computers, smart devices, phones, fax, lighting, appliances, radios, loudspeakers, posters, cinema, billboards, multimedia systems, and the nervous system of many citizens.

Which government office manages it? The Clergy.

How efficient is it? Was there ever a time where it was misused and caused panic, or it was failed to be activated and put people in danger? Although it's developers claim that the Trumpet is extremely efficient, even with seldom testing, it sometimes caused terrible destruction, when it fried an entire planet into ashes. There was also an incident when an interstellar spacecraft disappeared since it was directly in line with an x-ray, and once failed to activate during nation-wide testing, scrambling developers into patching the system.

What are the emergency categories?
The Trumpet broadcasts emergency messages for the following events.

• Civil danger warning
• Civil emergency message
• Natural disasters
• Evacuation ordinance
• Administravtive message
• Routine testing
• Local area emergency
• Military statement
• Environmental hazard
• Shelter in place
• Etc.

The Trumpet catorizes each broadcast by five letters that affect the color scheme display of devices capable of displaying picture.

• W, for warnings - red
• A, for watches - yellow
• E, for emergencies - orange
• S, for statements - green
• M, for messages - blue

If you would like, give a demonstration message:

Human - Equestrian War message

All activity ceases within the system, and a red picture of war displays along with the title. For anything not capable of displaying a picture, there is only the chimes and the message.

*CHIMES*

*CHIMES*

This is an official message from the church, notifying you of a situation which may require attention. Hello fellow Pantalmics. We are warning you of an impending doom, for you are at the forefront of our war, with the equine race. A barrier of death will loom over your world around 18:00, converting you into a mindless pastel slaves at the mercy of the "solar" queen. God is telling you to evacuate as soon as possible to the nearest center, with only the basics in hand. Military forces are already on their way, and they may help you at your request. Thank you for your cooperation; your life counts on it.

“Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.” -1 John 3:2

Any other information?

The trumpet is known to override every device known to man within the affected area, and makes them announce the message. Lights turn red, computers boot, and phones ring, annoying lots of people. Some people even report God talking through the sky when the trumpet is active.

[U A C]

Does your nation have a nationwide emergency warning system (like the EAS in the United States or J-Alert in Japan). Yes

What mediums can it broadcast on? Its broadcast through both Aural (sound) and Visual mediums.

Which government office manages it? Technically none. In each UAC facility its operated by, and triggered by, the facilities resident AI.

How efficient is it? Was there ever a time where it was misused and caused panic, or it was failed to be activated and put people in danger? It is extremely efficient... Typical lag between the detection of an event and the activation of the system is about .005 seconds. To date, this system has yet to fail or be abused although the possibility does exist that it could be.

What are the emergency categories? There are five levels (I, II, III, IV, V). Each increase marks a 50% rise in threat level and comes with increased security measures wired into the system. These measures can be manually overridden with a sufficient security clearance.

If you would like, give a demonstration message: Why ruin the surprise?

Any other information? Not at this time.

[Mastralos]

Does your nation have a nationwide emergency warning system (like the EAS in the United States or J-Alert in Japan). Yes

What mediums can it broadcast on? Radio and television. A new SMS-text system is currently being tested.

Which government office manages it? It is its own office - the Emergency Alert Systems Operations (EASO) - under the Ministry of Communications. It works with many other ministries, agencies, and departments.

How efficient is it? Was there ever a time where it was misused and caused panic, or it was failed to be activated and put people in danger? It has so far only been used to broadcast extreme weather alerts. While the system itself has not yet failed, it has broadcast messages during large-scale power blackouts, effectively rendering reception of its messages impossible. This is more a failure of the electrical infrastructure than anything else.

What are the emergency categories? This depends on the agency, office, or ministry issuing the alert - EASO merely maintains the broadcasting system, uploads/plays the intended alert, and maintains a minimum information standard.

If you would like, give a demonstration message:

Any other information? The warning system is required by law to be tested once a month. The military attack category has never been used in the system's history. The terrorism category was used once, during the 1999 Gandoor City bombing. The missing persons is usually used locally several times throughout the year. The natural disasters category is used several times throughout the year, mostly to warn about severe storms.

[Rhodevus]

Does your nation have a nationwide emergency warning system (like the EAS in the United States or J-Alert in Japan).

Yes, Rhodevus's Emergency Warning System is called the Rhodeve Warning Network (RWN)

What mediums can it broadcast on?

The system can broadcast on television, radio and over loudspeakers designed solely for RWN's use

Which government office manages it?

The Rhodeve Intelligence Agency and the Rhodeve War Network are government offices that manage it, all under the Ministry of Defense.

How efficient is it? Was there ever a time where it was misused and caused panic, or it was failed to be activated and put people in danger?

It is quite efficient. It has only ever been misused once in the early 60s, which almost caused mass panic over nuclear war. Since then, its systems have been updated and has only ever been used in proper scenarios

What are the emergency categories?

Blue: Terror Attack
Orange: Natural Disaster
Red: Attack on Rhodevus (war)
Black: Nuclear attack
Green: Environmental disaster (biological and chemical weapons falls under this)
Yellow: Attack on Electronics (mass hacking and WMD scale internet viruses)

[Imperium Sidhicum]

Does your nation have a nationwide emergency warning system (like the EAS in the United States or J-Alert in Japan).

Emergency warning systems, obviously. Nationwide - no. Creating a nationwide emergency system for an interstellar empire spread across the better part of the galaxy would be both extremely difficult and impractical. Each Imperial planet, however, has it's own emergency warning system designed to the specifications of a unified Imperial standard.

What mediums can it broadcast on?

Pretty much any medium there is. Most citizens have tacticoms, so sending emergency warnings to every one of them within the projected danger zone is the most straightforward means. Most Sidhae live in huge hive-cities, so air raid sirens and the ubiquitous propaganda screens and loudspeakers can also be used if the danger is about to strike a city. More conventional domestic appliances like radios and televisions are also used.

Which government office manages it?

Typically it falls to the planetary civil defense authorities, usually the local Civil Defense Command, which is a branch of the Auxilia. On worlds under military administration, emergency management is handled directly by the military forces stationed on the world.

How efficient is it? Was there ever a time where it was misused and caused panic, or it was failed to be activated and put people in danger? Imperium's emergency warning systems can be proudly proclaimed to be very efficient, chiefly because the civilian populace is routinely subject to mandatory emergency drills and other civil defense exercises. Consequently, every Sidh knows how to act in the event of an emergency, making sights like disorganized panicked mobs and general chaos a thing unseen in the Sidh parts of the Imperium.

What are the emergency categories? There are five - Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta and Omega-level emergencies, increasing progressively from local planetary level. For example, a fire in a petrochemical refinery would typically be classed as Alpha-level emergency. An example of a Beta-level threat is a hurricane or an impending earthquake. A Chernobyl-scale nuclear meltdown or other typical NBC hazard would be classified as Gamma. Delta level is reserved for disasters with the potential to cause continent-wide damage, such as impending supervolcanic eruptions or nanite swells. The Omega level warning is usually only issued under extinction-level threats, such as an impending asteroid strike or a full-scale orbital bombardment.

Each emergency warning is also issued a colour code to immediately signify the nature of the threat. Blue is used for natural threats, such as storms, flood, earthquakes and the like. Orange signifies an industrial hazard, such as chemical spills or dangerous industrial fires. Green is the code for NBC hazards. Black signfies a military threat. Grey is used for miscellaneous warnings that do not easily fit under any of the aforementioned, or are issued as a precautionary measure while threat levels can be better assessed, and is oftentimes eventually upgraded to a different colour code. Lastly, code White signifies civil defense drills, and is issued to avoid confusion.

The warning level is also tiered from zero to five to signify the proximity/acuteness of the threat, zero being the closest to the threat. This is to give citizens an idea of how quick and decisive their response must be in order to survive. For example, people standing inside the blast radius in a city about to be hit by a nuclear missile in the next five minutes would clearly be given a tier-zero warning, while those residing many miles downwind would receive a tier-three or four warning, having enough time to evacuate or find shelter before the radioactive fallout plume reaches them.

If you would like, give a demonstration message:

Example: ATTENTION ALL CITIZENS! CODE GAMMA ZERO GREEN IS NOW IN EFFECT! IF YOU ARE RECEIVING THIS MESSAGE, PROCEED TO THE NEAREST FALLOUT SHELTER IMMEDIATELY! FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS WILL BE PROVIDED BY CIVIL DEFENSE WORKERS ON SITE!

The message is usually coupled with directions to the nearest shelter/evacuation route relative to the viewer on visual media.

Any other information?

That's pretty much it.

[Adainia]

Does your nation have a nationwide emergency warning system (like the EAS in the United States or J-Alert in Japan).
Yes it does. The National Emergency Warning System, or NEWS.

What mediums can it broadcast on?
Television, Radio (Standard, satellite, and internet), Cellphone, electric roadsigns and billboards, and public loudspeaker are the main ones. It's possible to opt-in for receiving NEWS bulletins on computers, as well. The NEWS Board has also teamed up with various Adainian social media companies to relay such bulletins.

Which government office manages it?
The NEWS Board, which is in turn ran by the Dept. of Interior. However, different parts of the government may call for a NEWS bulletin if there's a need for it. For example, the Dept. of Defense may call for one if there's an invasion, the National Weather Service from the ADT may call for one, and etc.

How efficient is it? Was there ever a time where it was misused and caused panic, or it was failed to be activated and put people in danger?
Quite efficient. The NEWS Board has a policy of using bulletins only for emergencies and testing, and has been quite reputable for reliability and ease of understanding. It helps to assume the listener knows nothing. NEWS bulletins are tested every two months, and all NEWS bulletin integrated speaker systems are tested every six months.

What are the emergency categories?
Three classes: I, II, and III. Class I emergencies are natural disasters, such as the Foxborough Tsunami of 2012. Class II emergencies are somewhat arbitrarily designated as "man-made scenarios." Situations such as missing child reports, chemical spills, and acts of terrorism fall under this category. Class III emergencies are for scenarios involving conflict and war, such as air raids, expected invasion, or nuclear bombing on Adainian soil.

Any other information?

• There have only been a few Class III emergencies in the history of Adainia, all of which were during the War of 2020.
• The NEWS Board was originally part of the Dept. of Civil Defense. However, the Dept. of Civil Defense was revamped into the Dept. of Interior during the 1970's.
• As with EAS, NEWS bulletins may be broadcasted on local levels. The lowest level a NEWS bulletin may be dedicatedly broadcasted in is the county level.

Does your nation have a nationwide emergency warning system (like the EAS in the United States or J-Alert in Japan).
Yes. It is called the "Federal Alert System" (Système fédéral d'alerte) or SFA.

What mediums can it broadcast on?
The SFA has multiple methods on which alerts can be broadcast. For television, there is a permanent television channel simply called SFA which ordinarily broadcasts a screensaver and music unless there are warnings, advisories and alerts issued. On radio, there is also a dedicated station which broadcasts warning information. In addition, federal law requires all principal national and provincial radio and television stations to broadcast information and advisories.

Computers, laptops, cellular devices and other electronic hand-held devices that can access the internet have automatic pop-up alerts which warn of immediate threats. These can be made nationally or are located to province wide and even county alerts.

In addition to all of the above, federal law requires all fire stations to be equipped with an electromechanical siren to alert the populace. The government also maintains a system of sirens across the country.

Which government office manages it?
The SFA is managed by the General Directorate of Civil Defence, a government agency of the Ministry of the Interior.

How efficient is it? Was there ever a time where it was misused and caused panic, or it was failed to be activated and put people in danger?
Generally speaking, it is quite efficient. However, there have been some instances where the system has failed. One of the most infamous was the 2007 Cartier wildfire. During wildfires, the SFA relies on information from fire observers, firefighters as well as members of the public in order to track the progress of existing fires as well as report new ones. However, this system fell apart during the Cartier wildfire when the fire's speed coupled with unexplained disappearances of warning messages meant that several towns in the path of the fire did not receive warnings and evacuation advisories. As a result, 45 people were killed and four towns were completely destroyed.

Another event took place in 2013 where the SFA system was hacked and a warning message was broadcast informing people that the dead had risen and were eating the flesh of the living. The government has since improved cyber security to prevent future hacking attempts.

What are the emergency categories?
There are no real "categories" but advisories/warnings are given for the following:

• Blizzards
• Tornadoes
• Flooding
• Severe weather
• Tsunami
• Wildfires
• Large scale health hazards
• Terrorist attacks
• Invasions or other acts of war
• BCR incidents
• Nuclear incidents
• Civil unrest
