He did what he had to do.

He killed a man.

He killed Uncle Sam, to stop the killing of millions of Omnans who were erased from history. He ended the Reich.

It was the best and worst moment of his life.

When Divine Leader Megatron was taking over some afterlife realms, one of the pre-existing gods...
*A loud fusion cannon blast is heard, then deathly silence*
*Megatron's voice is finally heard*

"We do NOT speak of 'unfortunate results.' Plus, that so-called 'god' ended up permanently deactivated by my forces anyway. The latter fact is all that history shall record of the encounter." ~Megatron

A study by the National Polling Institute, a conglomerate of various polling organizations, showed that President Kang Gengxin's worst ratings drop occurred last month following widespread reporting by the national press that the National Police Agency, led by former Director Tsang Ji until very recently, had become a hub of corruption and discriminatory policing practices since Tsang was first appointed to the job by former President Sun Lingxin in 2002. In what was dubbed by much of the political commentariat as a blunder of astounding proportions, which was also later found in the polling, Kang's Administration, from the top on down, refused to comment on the allegations made by the press. It was not until Tsang was charged by local prosecutors that Kang held a press conference. Unfortunately for him, the public's temperature had not cooled one bit. Kang's average approval rating fell from 51% in late February to 37% in early April.

During a quiet UN meeting, our Leader Umbaku had farted loudly while it was publicized live around the world.

Queen Frøya's life was almost in slight danger when a crazed man climbed a railway fence to get close to her train. As is standard protocol, the man was immediately shot dead by Railway Guards.

Kazimir Ivanovich suffered from severe schizophrenia during his time as Imperial Army's commissar (estimated to be around 2006 - 2007). The reason could have been his double role as an unofficial executor and his death list was estimated to have around 60 names.

National sweetheart, socialite and our glorious leader's daughter and youngest child, Luni, announced herself as a communist while with her father live on radio resulting in QunLen giving a 3 hour long rant about "The red menace" and the failings of communism to which Luni responded "but it wasn't real communism" resulting in the rant continuing until Luni announced it was a April fool's joke leading to QunLen feeling great embarrassment much to the amusement of Luni

The official story is our ruler Princess Celestia faced a rebellion by her younger sister, the Princess Luna, who sought to overthrow their shared diarchy and rule by herself. As a consequence, Princess Luna was banished to the Moon for a thousand years, and only recently has been reconciled with her older sister.

The actual story is told only in whispers and rumors. It is said in hushed tones our ruler Celestia blames herself for her sister's treason, that she did not give Luna an equal share in the rulership that the law required and thus sowed the seeds of rebellion. It is said in even more hushed tones that the thousand-year banishment was not our ruler's intended action: the two of them were actually engaged in a fight to the death, and the banishment was a merciful accident.

The King, somewhat embarrassingly, split his court hosen whilst alighting from a carriage. Court hosen in Great Nortend is often made from fine cream-mustard kidskin cut very closely to the skin and is rather fragile. The event caused much stir in the press, especially in sensationalist tabloids.

President Johnathan Snow is not expected to run for a third term after the current scandal that has engulfed the media for two weeks, in which a recording from two years ago was found of him saying that LGBT leanings are mental disorders, despite this having been long debunked by science. This is not his first homophobic comment, and at this point is considered beyond simple ignorance and into willful hatred by most of the population. With his presidency already unpopular due to failure to pass key legislative agendas, his popularity rating is now in the mid 30s and dropping rapidly.

God Emperor Guy de Incognito went on an extended vacation expecting the populace to NOT blow themselves up while he was gone. He regrets not leaving a list of what not to do.

King-Emperor Boris Welmington I almost got assassinated by someone who didn't agree with the name of the flagship.

King Jeroslav Von Christian need to give up his authorities to revolutionaries

Date: November 21, 2000; 7:30 AM

Location: Osideon, North Division, Suhurbia

Event: Destruction of major city

Death toll: over 8 million

At this tragic date, a massive earthquake occurred took place near the lake where Osideon was once located. Osideon was an underwater domed city home to millions of inhabitants. When the earthquake took place on November 21, 2000 at 7:30 AM the dome cracked and over a period of hours it grew worst. People were well aware of what was going on and were trying to evacuate but by 10:30 AM, the entire dome protecting the underwater city shattered and the city of Osideon flooded, claiming the lives of 8 million people. Body remains and city remains are still being found to this day. Since then, the North Division, and the Northwest Division has made a massive change to its underwater cities to prevent such a tragedy from happening again. A major earthquake occurred again in 2010 in the underwater city of Amatuora, Northwest Division and nothing happened. No lives were lost due to its improved structure and protection. Had it looked the same as it did over ten years prior, nearly 10 million would have lost their lives the same way the Osideonians did.

Slept with another nations leader

Frese "Mother" Ceverya was one hell of a personality during her years in high-school, and it was especially dangerous for her during her early years as the "Nation's Mother" as she graduated at the age of 17, and emerged as the ruler of a newly found federation by the age of 18. During her last year - last semester in high-school, she was invited to prom by a male student named "Derek Paris." He was a quarterback in the school's football team, so of course, he would naturally have a massive following during the prom season. Frese Ceverya was just as high on the social ranking, so for the two to end up together for prom was a real predictable match. The prom went just as planned, thankfully.

Not thankfully though, somebody spiked the punch bowl. Frese Ceverya was massively thirsty due to the fact that the entire crowd kept cheering her on to dance for however sweaty she was getting. By the time the prom was over, she was drunk out of her mind, but nobody thought anything of it... except for Derek! Derek, the dastardly man he was! It was he who spiked the punch bowl and even brought along a tiny digital camera to film whatever aftermath was about to occur. Long story short, Derek ended up getting a full two hour video of Frese Ceverya acting like a cat in a skimpy, pink, and tight outfit. Two whole hours, what a madman!

Frese Ceverya learned of this the next day, and was quick to cut all communication with him, and curse his entire family. She was able to pass this of as a hilariously tragic/tragically hilarious moment of her life that she would never happen to remember, until she was able to unify the entire nation of Kanussiya. Derek Paris was pretty salty at the fact that he got dumped. He was even saltier at the fact that he got dumped by the most powerful person in this new nation. And so, like the sleazemeister he always truly was, he released the video online. All two hours, a drunken Frese Ceverya meowing, stretching, and attempting to purr - it was now all online, and it was viewed by 2 million people within the first day of it being uploaded on the site "ThiccPoliticcDotNet" by a user who was known as "DaddyKanussiya."

"Boжe moi! Etǎ slimiy koshkadragon rules my country?" said a dissident. The public opinion of Frese Ceverya was thrown into a frenzy after this was released. Some were indifferent, some thought so much more of her, but the majority were... slightly disturbed by this. "My president? My cat? Neither! Hashtag not my president and/or cat!" said a reporter for Frick's News. She did not necessarily know how to respond to this dilemma, and to be fair, not many people in her position would know, particularly because not many people have been in a situation like this. But alas, she went with the second gut feeling she had. The first one was vomiting, so she did that first. And with bodily functions out of the way, her feelings commanded her loyal administration.

Derek Paris "accidentally" choked on a free hot dog the next day.
