Victory in Serbia, remembering the fallen

A CT-01 of the 3rd Armour Brigade lies wrecked, destroyed in combat during the advance towards Belgrade

Chairman Buck pays his respects at the grave of an identified soldier of the 11th Infantry Brigade

The Serbian Civil War has come to a close. By all measures it is a revolutionary success, establishing a Serbian state free from the old monarchy, despite the German-Imperialist holdout that remains oppressing the North. Four hundred and forty one members of the Balkan Expeditionary Force have died, being buried in the Canadian War Graveyard in Belgrade, and their names added to the War Memorial in Ottawa. Chairman Buck paid a surprise visit to the Canadian soldiers stationed at the William Bishop Aerodrome south of Belgrade and met with Petar Stambolić of the legitimate Serbian government, before visiting the Canadian War Graveyard. He personally awarded twenty six medals of the Order of the Republic, the highest military honour in all of Canada to soldiers that demonstrated exceptional bravery. The medal depicts the gear and wheat symbol of the CPC within a red star.

The war marked not only the first time Canada has deployed soldiers internationally since the end of the Great War, but the first combat usage of new technology such as the 'CT-01 Currie' Tank, CL-13 'Lance' Jet Fighter and CF-100 'Canuck' Interceptor, and will thus provide invaluable experience to future military operations. A Canadian military detachment will remain in Serbia for the foreseeable future to assist in reconstructing the country and training the new Serbian military. Fifty thousand CR-37 rifles have been distributed to Serbia, with more, along with the CT-01 Tank and other military hardware being offered at a lowered price.

Return of the Protests!

---

It has been 3 days since the Serbian civil war truly ended, and ever since then, the protests for independence have returned. Just as the leader of the Moldovan people's independence party promised, the protests will only return after the Serbian civil war ended. That civil war has ended, which means the protesters can go back to protesting. However, one thing that Petru did not expect was the Soviets to allow Romania to leave the Comintern so easily. This made "Operation Evadare", completely useless to Romania, which the Leader of the M.P.I.P. (Moldovan People's Independence Party), has since begun to take a more aggressive stance against Romania and her people. 15 minutes after the protests continued, people who were ethnically Romanian began to be harassed by the protesters, saying that "Romanians are not welcome in Moldova anymore!". 2 hours into the protests, and Romanian people were still being harassed, which caused the police to eventually intervene and stop the harassment. The Moldovan people responded by accusing the police to be silencing the protests, which was a violation of their rights. These accusations were completely baseless, as all the police were asking for is for the protesters to stop harassing people. Eventually, the protest turned into a riot, as the protesters attempted to attack the police, which only ended in the arrest of the protesters.

Petru Groza has announced publicly that while Romania is willing to give independence if the people vote for it, what Romania will not stand for is people harassing and rioting over a matter that could've been solved diplomatically. Petru has given the M.P.I.P. one more chance to try and solve this matter peacefully, if they attempt to riot again, Romania will be ready.

Transanatolian Railway

Today, a long anticipated infrastructure project in Turkey was opened, the Transanatolian Railway. Part funded by the German Government and German investors, the project was started nearly a decade ago, when numerous reserves of oil were found in Turkey's far east, around Mesopotamia and the Persian Gulf. The main aim of the railway is so oil can be exported to Europe, where many of Turkey's trading partners are, including our own German Empire. The new tracks go on for over 1,000 Kilometers, and link in to existing tracks to make one big line from Kuwait to Constantinople. The first oil train left Mesopotamia this morning, and will take over four days to arrive in Constantinople. Moreover, Turkish Railways have designed a special wagon that can transport oil to the west, and then carry steel, food, ect, back to the east. The trains used on this line are former DB, Class 03 Steam locomotives, with specially modified oil burner engines, among others for Turkish Railways. There will also be a limited passenger service from Constantinople to Baghdad or Tehran. Let us hope this new railway lets oil export from Turkey quicker, and hence improve the wealth of this emerging power in West Asia.

TRAITORS IN THE NORTH

---

What seemed like a victory for the south turned out to be only
a moment of peace in a bloody war. Thankfully, the Germans were
surprisingly forgiving, even allowing our proud republic to have all
rights over Belgrade. What could have led to this? Likely the overwhelming
might that the soviets held, and would've brought to Germany's doorstep if
needed be. However, this does not forgive the amount of shame Germany
has brought to our great country, by splitting our glorious Serbia in half.
While we may have lost this war, we must not let our hopes down! For we
can one day re-unite our separated nations to show the world that Serbia
can not, and will not stay down! Glory to Serbia!

Kaiserreich 80

Today is January 18th, 1951. It has been 80 years since in the Versailles Palace, Wilhelm I was declared Deutsches Kaiser and the German Empire was formed. 80 years later, his line still rules, under his Great - Granddaughter, our beloved Kaiserin Victoria, and has grown into the World's strongest power. Unification day is always one of our most important public holidays, but this year is particularly important. No expense was spared for a Grand parade, showing the whole might of the German Military, It will be attended by an estimated million Germans, including the many local nobles of the Empire, and many leaders and diplomats from every country in civilized Europe. The Kaiserin will today make her first broadcast on television, wishing all subjects of the Empire a happy anniversary, at midday on the Imperial Broadcasting Company. Let us hope today, that the message is spread clearly around the world; the German Empire has stood strong for 80 years, and it will stand on strong for many more anniversaries to come!

Grand Summit in Berlin?

Europe has just seen it's biggest conflict in nearly a decade, the Serbian Civil War. The aftermath, an even more divided Europe, with the Soviets and it's puppet governments being in a new faction know as Comintern. "The red menace is growing", said Chancellor Adenauer in speech, "and we must find a way to defend our planet from it, for the sake of freedom and democracy. Therefore, I am inviting world leaders to a summit in Berlin this March. I extend this invitation to all corners of the globe, to any fellow leaders who share my concerns of the spread of Bolshevism. We shall discuss our worries, and we most likely ultimately form a defence coalition to guard the remaining majority of our planet from the uncivilised, ungodly abomination that is Communism. I do urge and recommend any government to attend, and join us, before it is too late..."

A CLOSE CALL

After an amazing offensive by Germany, Belgium, Bohemia, and Hungary. The Soviet Union and Serbia eventually caved into pressure due to the overwhelming amount of forces, and ended in a new monarchy to take the now empty throne of Serbia's monarchy. King Frederick has happily taken up the throne and promised to make sure the Serbia will not fall to the corrupt communists, along with the help of Nikolai Bellic as prime minister. While the situation of the Serbian civil war may have ended, what has arisen from it's ashes is a much bigger threat. More and More European countries are falling to communism, and with Hungary bidding for a non-aggression pack with the soviets, which Frederick and Nikolai has publicly denounced as a sign of treachery by the Hungarians. Upon hearing of the summit at Berlin, Nikolai announced that he and the king will be attending the summit, to make sure that Communism shall be contained, either by force, or diplomacy.

Czech Prime Minister Dies, Aged 78
PRAGUE — Bohemia's prime minister, Emil Hácha has died. The senior Czech statesman is believed to have passed in his sleep sometime during the early morning hours on Monday. He was 78 years old. Hácha is survived by his daughter Milada Rádlová (née Háchová) and preceded in death by his wife Marie Háchová (née Klaus). The future prime minister began his legal career in 1896 after graduating from Charles-Ferdinand University. Hácha initially found work in a Prague government office, where he first met his future wife Marie.

Soon after the outbreak of the Great War, he was appointed to the bench of the Administrative Court in Vienna. And following Austria-Hungary's dissolution in 1929, Hácha returned to Prague where, for his longtime service to the crown, he was appointed president of the newly established Supreme Court of Bohemia by King Maximilian II. Hácha retired from the bench in 1943 and was subsequently elected to the Chamber of Deputies as a member of the Czech People's Party. Hácha was well respected on both sides of the aisle, and it seemed only natural when he was appointed prime minister in 1948. With his passing, the interim premiership now passes to his deputy, Josef Plojhar.

King Maximilian II has declared three days of national mourning and ordered flags to be flown at half-staff in the late prime minister's honour. Hácha's funeral is scheduled for Friday morning at Saint Vitus Cathedral. The Archbishop of Prague will preside over a requiem mass attended by His Majesty and various government functionaries. Other foreign statesmen and dignatires are also expected to be in attendance.

Dawn of the World Defence Coalition

Negotiations between participants at the Berlin Summit have finished for a Grand Anti Soviet Alliance were completed yesterday, and hence the World Defence Coalition was born. It was officially declared on a document signed this morning by the leaders of numerous countries, including Germany, Belgium, Turkey, Bohemia, Vodjovdina and the Straits of Shang. Chancellor Konrad Adenauer announced the alliance to the world right after he had signed it, calling for all citizens and nations of the civilised earth to rally behind the coalition for freedom and defence of our god given planet, to stop the growth of the Satanic Soviet Menace. The Coalition's formation is in response to growing Soviet Influence and a formation of the Fourth Internationale a year ago, a faction between the Soviet Union and it's puppet governments in Europe, Asia, and the Americas. It's name in German is the Weltverteidigungs Koalition, and it's international abbreviation is WVK. It is estimated that many more governments than the initial ones will join soon, and it shall grow to bring down the Red Beast that is Stalin's Bolshevik Personality Cult, the Soviet Union.

Federal States Cuts Diplomatic Ties with the Mongolian Republic

March 22, 1950 - Federal Assembly held an emergency council in response to the Mongolian invasion of Sinkaing. The Assembly unanimously voted in favor of denouncing the Mongolian Republic and has begun measures to withdraw normal political interactions with the State. Foreign Secretary Santiago referred to the Mongolian Republic as a ‘barbaric state’ that doesn’t appreciate international law. President Strehlow in F.D. called upon the international community to follow suite with the Federal States and insisted the Mongolian Republic to retreat before the ’Community of the Good’ rallies.

However, can the Federal States even impact the conflict in Sinkaing? Likely not in the way the Federal Government wishes. Western America is quite isolated from the points of contention in the world. Any potential military response by the international community is unlikely. The mighty German Army saw itself battered in a recent flashpoint with the Soviet Union and the rest of the sizable powers across the globe are locked in their own potential conflict. The Armed Service is also defensive in nature and seems to have no ability to fight a war in Asia.

Western America usually tends to business in North America. Almost all F.S. Presidents have staunchly stood isolated from the convoluted affairs of the International Community. Wether for good reason or not is debatable. Although, its undeniably true that we find ourselves in a connecting world. Perhaps the foreign policy of the Federal States is outdated.

Catholic brothers persecuted in the Netherlands

On march 21st, two days ago, the Catholic church of Sint-Willibrordus, in Hilvarenbeek, was burned by Protestant fanatics in Noord-Brabant. This act of intolerance from the dutch heretics is far from being the first and will surely not be the last. Mr. Degrelle has already taken action in two ways. First, he asked our ambassadors in Germany, France and Great Britain to request assistance from these neighbouring countries in the protection of the oppressed Catholics Dutch-occupied northern Belgium. Then, he made contact with the Katholieke Broederschap, a Flemish organisation created more than 40 years ago to defend the interests of the Catholics in the Netherlands. Our beloved King has declared that "Belgium wants a peaceful resolution to this situation, but she is ready to take military action if the Netherlands refuse to set our brothers free".

Mongolian invasion of China

In the past days, Mongolia has decided to annex the free country of Sinkiang by force. This state situated in the western chinese region had been independent for a long time and was peaceful and isolated from the international stage. But the mongolian communists, pretending they want to bring stability to China (when their true motivations are communist expansionism and warmongering), have now declared war on Sinkiang, with support from the Soviets. Mr. Degrelle has sent a telegram to the mongolian government, in which he expresses his disgust at the barbarism of this uncivilised puppet soviet state.

Julien Lahaut arrested in Louvain

Julien Lahaut, a former leader of the Belgian Workers' Party, was thought to live in exile in Russia following his escape from the prison of Mons in 1943. But an anonymous source has told the National Security Police three days ago that he would be in Louvain yesterday in the evening. The tip turned out to be true, and the communist agitator was arrested at 11 PM. He is now detained at the central prison of Louvain, and our King Léopold has announced this morning that his betrayal of our nation deserved only death. It is believed that his return to Belgium's was part of a soviet effort to help communist terrorists to organise in their quest of destruction. Mr. Degrelle has publicly accused Stalin of intervening inside Belgium and warned him of the consequences his actions might have.

RECONSTRUCTION

Photo of an abandoned house in a forest, owner presumed dead.

While the civil war may have ended, the damage it has caused has been tremendous. Families have been split apart, homes have been destroyed, and thousands have either died or fled from the country. The repairs will likely take months, if not an entire year in order to bring things back to peak performance. It's estimated that thousands have become homeless, and hundreds have died. However, with a new monarch to take control, and with the help of the German empire, Vodjovdina will make sure that one day, Serbia will be reunited, even if it takes years to accomplish. Communism will not take over, and with the formation of the World Defense Coalition, Vodjovdina and her people will slowly rebuild, and one day, reunite Serbia under the rightful ruler that it Vodjovdina. Even if it has to be done by force.

In other news, a small political party has formed that claims that only through nationalism, can Serbia, and even the west of the Balkans unite to stop communism. Most communist parties have been either disbanded due to the current opinion on communism, or have been banned by the state. Maids that serve the current king of Vodjovdina claim that the king has taken a liking to the newest, and youngest maid in the kingdom, however most of these claims have been denounced by both the king and the maid.

STALIN IS NO TURKEY

A diplomatic visit by Premier Stalin, Foreign Minister Molotov, and several other officials was interrupted by an assassination attempt on Stalin, where a member of a Turkish crowd attempted to use a handgun to shoot Stalin. Their shot missed, and the would be asssasin was apprehended in short order. The trade and diplomatic talks with Turkey were not cancelled because of this, but security was tightened around the meeting place and the assassin was officially extradited by the Turkish government to the USSR. No group or state has so far claimed responsibility, however MGB Chief Beria has commented that “We might get something out of the assassin”. Turkish authorities have publicly stated that the assassin was a Belgian national, but have not disclosed his name. Media and politicians in the USSR have floated the idea that the assassin was a “fascist radical” and a product of Belgium’s bizarre and xenophobic ruling ideology.

AID SENT TO MONGOLIA

The Mongolian invasion of Sinkiang, while controversial in the Supreme Soviet, will still be supported by the USSR. The official government release on the subject outlines the Soviet policy towards China which is in support of an end to the “Warlordism” in the country and the re-establishment of a functioning and centralized government. However the release made it very clear that there is absolutely no support for any further Mongolian occupation beyond what is necessary to establish border security or a continued occupation of any part of China. The USSR and Communist International have also allocated additional aid to Chinese Communists.

Adenauer pledges to strive for another Federation of Nations

Today, Konrad Adenauer launched his campaign for the upcoming elections this August, confirming he will remain Chairman of the Zentrum Party and will seek a second term as Chancellor. He also outlined his main campaign policies, including a pledge to attempt to re-form the Federation of Nations. The original Federation was formed after the Great War to retain peace in a post war world. It was generally successful for a decade during the 1920s, until the Great Depression hit Europe and then the world. It eventually collapsed in 1938 when the Soviet Union left it as a result of the beginning of the German Soviet War, and Germany itself left it month later, bringing the organisation to an end. Since then, we haven't seen a major intergovernmental organisation form from it's ashes. Adenauer, despite voting for leaving the Federation back in 1938 when he was Interior Minister, has now said an intergovernmental world organisation is important to preserve world peace, and to bring up various atrocities committed across the world today, and would on the world stage strive for such a thing if he were to be re elected, which by polling seems likely. His main opponents, Kurt Schumacher of the Social Democrats, who has also announced his campaign, is also for a revival of the Federation, and has suggested so since the end of the war in 1942. Theodor Heuss, of the Free Liberal Party, another major opponent, has not spoken on the issue, having launched his campaign over a month ago. And finally, Freidrich von Hohel, of the Ultranationalist Fatherland Party, has spoken out against another Federation of Nations, however his party in the 1920s under Marshal Ludendorff were a crucial element to it's foundation. However, we must remember it will not be the German voters decision to form another Federation, but leaders of the world, if they can all come to agreement on the issue.

SERBIA TO SEND SUPPLIES TO MONGOLIA!

---

Upon hearing the breakout of a war between Mongolia and Sinkiang, Petar announced that Serbia would send supplies, but nothing more. "As much as I want to send troops to help Mongolia, Serbia is in no state to do so, and can only send supplies such as ammo, guns, and medical items. If we had won the civil war, things would've been different, however, we did not. So all we can do to help Mongolia is to send supplies in hopes that these warlords will simply cede themselves to the P.R.C., who is the rightful ruler of China.". However, most of the people of Serbia disagree with what Mongolia is doing, and disappointed that the government would support this in any way. While no protests have occurred, places such as Belgrade can be heard of almost nothing of people being disgusted by what Mongolia is doing.

In other news, a local dog has been going on a peeing spree across all of Belgrade, and a reward of 125 dinars will be given to whoever can capture the dog. Rumors of Serbians fleeing to Vodjovdina and Bulgaria have begun to circulate, which would mean people are illegally leaving the country. Rumors of a secret group of nationalists have been going around in Belgrade, however most of the people that say this seem to disappear or die from an accident before we can interview them.

The ruler was thrown out of power and fled into the Nationalist Chineese borders, which he was accepted, and installed a government similar to ours.

COMMUNIST EXPANSION IN CHINA!

---

on May 1st, the Chinese country of Sinkiang was invaded by the mongols, and was sadly unable to be helped due to Sinkiang having no connections to any of the W.D.C. (World Defense Coalition). Many in Vodjovdina believe that we should've at least tried to do something, such as stopping the south from sending supplies. A small political group called the "Nationalist Unity party of Serbia", has become extremely vocal, saying that Germany should've intervened in some way, even if it meant going to war. "We must stop communism from spreading, Stalin is nothing but a Psychopath and thousands are suffering because of it. If the W.D.C. is truly going to become the one to stop communism, then it must stop every type of expansion, no matter the cost!". While many disagree with how aggressive this party is, many also agree that while they might not voice it in the best way, they're still right. Communism is a threat no matter what, what matters is how the world deals with it, will we deal with it diplomatically, or destroy every last shred of it to make sure it never harms anyone again?

---

THE LAST OF THE ESCAPEES?

---

When the P.R.S. (People's Republic of Serbia) was established, many people in it's northern borders begin to flee to Vodjovdina, however, a sudden flood of construction vehicles have begun to appear at the northern border. A wall is presumed to follow in a couple of months, which will likely stop any refugees coming into Vodjovdina. However, it will likely not stop refugees from going through Hungary, then into Vodjovdina. The king has announced that all refugees are welcome, as long as they don't attempt any communist uprisings. While none of the refugees have done so, a lot of the native populace are quite wary of the refugees, due to them being from a communist nation. While most of these fears are likely unneeded, due to so far all of the refugees originally supporting the Loyalists, it will be unlikely that this fear will go away until the P.R.S. is destroyed. Until then, we can only welcome these refugees into their new homes, and hope one day, they will get to go back to their old homes.

---

In other news, rumors of a underground communist party has begun to circulate, however this is unlikely. A dog saved a mans life by biting his leg and pulling him backwards, stopping him from being hit by a incoming train, the dog wouldn't let go for a while though. A recent study has shown that the people are beginning to wonder if Germany is the best option, however they also agree that the USSR must never be trusted.

Next month the German people will go to the polls to decide whom they'd like to lead their country, and in order for the election, scheduled on 10th August, to take place, the Reichstag must be dissolved. This was done per tradition on 10th July, exactly one month before the election, with her Imperial Majesty the Kaiserin walking into the Reichstag chamber to make a speech before it's members, outlining the schedule of the election, the acheivements of the government since the last election four years ago, and finally wishing all parties good luck. What happens now? Well, we enter what is officially a months recess of the Reichstag, but is in reality a period for campaigning. The Four Major Parties' Leaders will be campaigning with rallies, speeches, and more across the Empire, leading up to election day this August which will see all 800 Reichstag seats go up for election in their own constituencies respectively. Let the electoral system commence in our Empire, the World's most Democratic nation, and let God determine who shall be victorious for the benefit of Germany and the World.

Election 1951: Zentrum Largest Party

Empire - wide, the results of our 1951 Reichstag Election have come out, with the expected Hung result, with Chancellor Adenauer's Zentrum Party coming out as the party with the most seats - again. The results per party are as follows:

Zentrum - 271 Seats (-31)
Social Democrats - 209 seats (+21)
Fatherland - 131 seats (+49)
Protestant - 17 seats (+2)
Military - 15 seats (+1)
Peoples Progressive - 13 seats (-96)
Other - 24 seats (+14)
Independents - 120 seats (+40)

As can be seen, although the Zentrum have lost 31 seats, they are still the largest party, followed by the ever growing Social Democrats, and thirdly the Fatherland Party. Third Place formerly belonged to the Peoples Progressive Party, however due to it's Leader, Heinrich Heil's ever increasing amount of scandals, along with mass defections to the Social Democrats, the Party has lost the majority of it's seats, and been demoted to sixth place. Mr Heil has subsequently resigned, after he lost his own seat in the Reichstag. The further right Conservative base in the Reichstag has increased, between the Fatherland, Protestant, and many of the Independent representatives.

But whom is to form the next government? A Zentrum lead coalition, as we had in 1948, seems the most likely scenario. 70 Independent representatives from the last coalition are very likely to join such a government, as well as the 15 Military Delegates, and the 17 Protestant Members, would be 27 seats short of a Government, for which 400 seats is required, and it's likely that newly elected independents and member for lesser parties could join this. Alternatively, the Zentrum could join with the Fatherland Party to have a government with a total of 402. Whatever the tide turns to, it will be determined after negotiations take place between the Zentrum and various other parties until a majority can be formed...

Zentrum strike deal with Independents, Military, Peoples Progressives, Bavarian Conservatives and others to form Government

After weeks of negotiations, the Zentrum have managed to finally form a majority in the Reichstag, in a coalition with 97 out of 120 Independents, the 15 Military Members (who are usually in the ruling government anyway), the 13 Peoples Progressives, the 6 Bavarian Conservatives, and the one member from the Prussian Constitutional Party, with a total of 403 seats. Except for the Peoples Progressives, all of the participating members are Conservatives in some way, and the PPP were only bought it after negotiations with the Protestant Party collapsed due to the Prodestants demanding more power in the government than the Zentrum would allow. The Peoples Progressives new leader, Konrad Muller, may of saved the party, after their tragedy in the election. However, he has been widely criticised for joining a mainly Conservative government. Nevertheless, this Government should stay together until the next scheduled election in 1955, unless surprising action takes place. The new Government and Reichstag will be sworn into office on the 15th of September, and the new Cabinet of ministers will be announced a few days beforehand. Expect it to include Independents, Peoples Progressives, possibly even Bavarian Conservatives rather than just the Zentrum and the usual military. Let us hope another term for the Zentrum will be as prosperous as the last...
