Mahknovists Take Armilarsk!!!

Yesterday morning a clash between U.R.A and Mahknovist patrols escalated as the Mahknovist troops, reinforced by a local militia, forced the U.R.A to retreat. Outnumbered, U.R.A forces was pushed back into the neutral town of Armilarsk. Tensions began to simmer down after their retreat until a yet unknown event caused the Mahknovists to assault the city, routing the U.R.A garrison inside.

Since the rise of the Free Territory as a major power nearly 20 years ago, the Mahknovists have maintained mutually mistrustful but peaceful relations with the Ukrainian Restoration Army to their north.

However, with the ascension of the Hromady in the U.R.A government five years ago, ideological tensions between the two nations quickly escalated as both nations increased the number of soldiers on the border. Unfortunately, tensions only escalated further around the vitally important city of Armilarsk which connects the Crimean Peninsula to mainland Ukraine. The situation, as tense as it was, never lead to major violence beyond a few skirmishes...

Until Now.
-Crimean Herald-
The people's favorite blend of nonpartisan, accurate coverage of Crimea and Beyond!

Ukrainian Restoration Army: Formed by the remnants of the post-war Ukrainian military and resistance groups, it carved out a secure stronghold for itself in southern Ukraine. Although lead by a military Commissariat, it remains rather decentralized with the U.R.A having little care what individual settlements do as long as they pay taxes and follow general directives.

Hromady: The ruling political faction in the U.R.A, the Hromady represent the more militaristic and traditional branch of the U.R.A. Their rise to power in the "nation" as correlated with the curbing of the privileges of individual settlements, the increase of taxes to expand the military power, and heightened conflicts with the Mahknovists (Confederation) in Crimea.

Armilarsk: Seated in the center of the U.R.A-Confederation feud, the mayor of Armilarsk was able to secure agreements from both sides respecting the cities sovereignty. Before yesterday's events, troops from both nations were allowed in along with their respective trade routes. The city also did not abide by either the collectivist policies of the Mahknovists nor the martial directives of the U.R.A.

A new System
After the military parade, and several successful plans and projects regarding Cameron Nouveau, Richard A. DuBois ordered the LDC to invade DeRidder. After the invasion, Beauregard will become a part of the glorious Republic, and its denizens shall be freed from whatever slavery, pains and torments before becoming Louisianian. Whatever loot and artifacts that were there shall now become Louisianian, and stored away in museums.

The glorious Silver Republic shall finally piece together all of its history and culture before the Republic was established. Our books, the books that we've recovered, state that we were once a part of a Union, a union that took pride in Freedom. Most of Pre-Republican Louisianian History was found and discovered, but many historians were trying to figure out what it'd meant. It was clear that the old ways, did, indeed survive, but we've learned alot from them. We shall not repeat the Past.

We, the proud Louisianians shall move forward into the Future. Hail our President for Life, hail Progress, and hail to our new, glorious nation! Our history was instrumental in our present, but our past shan't dictate our future or what happens in it! We have honored our heritage, but have also evolved from it. Evolved from what our books tell us about ourselves, and the French. We have formed our own nation. Our own peoples. Louisiana for Louisianians, and our culture shall never die!

Strength, Authority, Protection!

Weather

Louisianians of our proud and glorious Republic have been strucken upon with many rains, and storms, and now, the winter. Our People have been growing accustomed to it, however. We shan't be slaves to Mother Nature, or to any outside forces! Old reports that we've found, long ago, state that Louisianian, and perhaps, Southern weather was, and still mostly is unpredictable. With time, our technologies will secure us Louisianians a new, bright, and proud future. We've tried to move with Nature, and not against her, but she is ever-fickle. The Republic and our Gov't has bestowed all efforts into securing a bountiful and happy existence for all Louisianian youths. Louisianian females are proud members of Society, bowing to no one, and it shall stay this way. Our culture and activities shall never be inhibited by the Climate! We shall not be stricken to our houses, to our living rooms. The world is our space. Earth is our crawfish, and we shall eat up, for Hunger isn't physical but also mental!

We shall eat and use whatever's from last harvest, from the brilliant Spring and Summer. Louisianians are an intelligent and resourceful people! Ave the Silver! Hail Louisianiania, our land has blessed us.

Sciences, Sports, and Arts

Education is a right. We've ensured that all Louisianians are highly literate and capable in our own right. We've descended from greatness, from poets and musicians, and we shall continue that legacy. As the weather is highly unpredictable, we've been adapting and overcoming the challenges that our Sports and Activities faced. Our Livelihoods shall be threatened by no one! The Republic shall stand tall!

Most of the recreational facilities and schools have been built, and we plan on finishing by the Spring of next year. Louisianian Science is a great industry, helping us tame Terra, but also understand it. Louisiana is a cornucopia, a fruit basket, and we shall keep our fruits of our labours unsullied, fresh, never rotten or filthy.

More statues and sculptures have been made. Louisiana stands with her artists, her creators and her inventors. Ingenuity is a Louisianian virtue, and a part of our stable society and democracy. To quote an old parable, or saying: "A Republic, if you can keep it," and we shall! Louisiana will continue to glisten! Our industry is our pride; it shall never fade away!

Law-&-Orders
Our crime rate has been low, for some time. We're a happy people, and a happy people are a busy people. However, don't confuse Business for Torture. We also allow Louisianians relaxation and vacation, but we also take heed to the saying: "Idle hands are playthings of The Devil."

Our grand Policeforce has ensured our peoples' safety since Time Unknown, we do what's possible in keeping Louisianian streets and neighborhoods safe. Safety and security.

More camps rehabilitation centres have been made, as dissent carries on. Some grow restless. Others forget how great and fortunate we are.

June 6th

"Good morning ladies and gentlemen, thank you for tuning in to 'The State' radio! Do we have an absolute treat for you today. After this morning's news, we will be on the line with our beloved president, LIVE here in our studio!"

"Exciting times indeed, Matthijs. Let us dive into the morning news quickly then. Good morning everyone, this is the morning news. The civil war has been progressing well for our beloved nation, as more territory has been taken back last season and it appears that this season will be no different. We interviewed a few military theorists who work at the military in light of this news:

'The unprecedented success of our forces is mostly due to our technological superiority, if not our greater numbers on the front. Military enterprises have been working non-stop to create the newest of technologies such as improved gear or weapons. Not to forget the strategists who work tirelessly as well, hoping to secure our lands efficiently with the least amount of casualties on both sides, military or civilian, as possible. They all contribute to growing our nation back into a great power.'

"In other news: our economy is experiencing an unprecedented surge. Economists credit this to the growing population of our nation as we expand back into our former and rightful territories. The larger workforce contribute to a steady growth as well as many new advancements made on scientific and humanitarian fields. Buying power has also increased significantly without taxes having to be raised."

"Perhaps one day we'll all be able to live a laidback live as work takes a role in the background, eh Lukas?"

"A dream we shall have to tirelessly work for now should we want to accomplish within our lifetimes. Finally, the president will be on this show in just a few moments. This is the first time the president has starred in a show on tv or on the radio, thank you mister president!"

"Indeed, we are establishing a connection as we speak. Hello?"

"Good morning Matthijs, this is the president speaking."

"Good morning sir, an honour to speak with you. How have you been this beautiful spring morning?"

"Splendid Matthijs, just terrific, yourself?"

"Well, we are deeply humbled by your accepting to star on our show sir. We are ecstatic."

"It is great to hear that, likewise for myself."

"If I may, mister president. How does it feel for you to finally star on a show like this?"

"Well, it is certainly new," the charismatic voice answered. "Though it is not an unwelcome development. I thought to myself that I ought to begin starring on shows on the radio or television to interact more with the people, it is my duty after all to represent the people. How can one represent something with not enough information to go of off?"

"An excellent premonition, sir," the radio host applauded. "We have some listeners who would like to ask some question as well, is that alright with you?"

"Fire away."

"A question from Oskar Nijland: 'Dear mister president, I am dying to know, what was the defining factor in you wanting to become president and guide our nation?'"

"A good question. Well Oskar, when I became president, our beautiful state was still reeling from the third world war. I could not leave it in such a damaged state, that is why I became president, to attempt to mend the wounds of then and improve the lives of our citizens."

Half an hour later.

"Thank you for indulging us with your presence here on 'The State', mister president."

"The pleasure was all mine, Matthijs. I must be off now however, presidential duties call."

"A good day to you sir."

A new System

The gov't recently made plans to expand into the West, though that won't happen anytime soon. It is imperative that we regain all central lands before going into compromised territory. Sublime Current DuBois, our proud President declared more naval ships to be built. Plans to expand into the Carib were also made, which seem useful as we need to double (or maybe triple) our fruit industry in the future.

Breaktimes have been increased for our workers, as they've been working hard recently. We appreciate their efforts.

Grand General Richard A. DuBois and his life

Previous presidents didn't take a record of their life, but our Sublime Current is the exception. He is a very public man, and he wrote six books in the past about his experiences. Presently, he has been dating, or courting, though that hasn't been confirmed yet.

Economic

Our economy has been doing stellar. Not because of economic independence (Autarky), or not even having neighbors, but because us Louisianians are an industrious people. The government was mentioning diversifying our industry, also.

Weather

We've recovered from the Monsoon and Winter seasons, rejoice and take heed. Enjoy this period before Mother Nature strikes again, next winter. In the Past, Spring and Winter felt like the same season, but now, you can clearly tell the difference, even with the crazy fog and windstorms. We've also heard of duststorms in the North, so we're grateful that this weather's not going on here.

Arts, Sports, and Sciences

Efforts have been made to push cursive and other 'pretty' and elegant fonts and handwriting back into Louisianian schools, recently. Also, the teaching of Louisianian Creole and Louisianian Spanish, the latter being a lost art and extinct language, though many have called for its return. Multilingualism shall begin again in Louisianiania, and she shalln't speak only English!

Louisianian Scientists have been studying and researching ways to resurrect several extinct species of native animals, including extinct delicacies that were once an instrumental part of our history, long, long ago. With more time and effort, we'll figure out how they've gone extinct, and how to stop the forces of Mother Nature from infringing on our rights. The incessant rain, fog, and storms obscure our view on the sky, and the gov't was forced to mainly rely on SpecOps or other skilled units, or of course, the illustrious Navy that patrols our waters.

New bills have been passed by the government, connecting the major companies of our state more to the people. The companies are now required to safeguard the wellbeing of the citizens when it comes to health insurance. The president has announced this in his latest interview.

"The major companies that run these whole sectors as enormous beings on the market should be held responsible for their workers' wellbeing, this concerns their families as well. The companies can well afford it and will see the money back as the spending power of the average worker should increase. It is a win-win scenario."

A new System

Sublime Current ordered a naval invasion of New Iberia, seeking to test how strong the Navy truly was, and if it could support future plans. As the gov't recently emphasized the Navy and Naval power, especially Naval manpower, it seemed like a naval invasion of soil outside of former-Louisianian territories seemed possible, and if not, plausible. Wanting more lands and living spaces (besides the Louisianian mainland) is a key goal that the gov't and our President-for-Life has. The peoples in those lands, however, could be uncivilized savages much like those to the West of us.

The gov't has also been focusing on Housing and the infrastructure outside of the Capitol and main cities of the Republic. It's important to not divide the country based on Wealth or Status, which we take note of. Build more schools. Fix roads. Build more bridges and keep the country united. We had to do more, be more, than just "proud," or defend our culture and the old/ancient ways.

In short, more funding's been raised towards Infrastructure and Naval forces.

Weather, and also the Arts/Sciences/Sports

Where Weather and the Arts/Sciences/Sports unite; Building safe structures to defend against the rains and storms of the Monsoon season, digging more ditches and improving our irrigation and water systems, and also Louisianian Architecture. The gov't continually works on Louisiana's proud environment, and preserving it. Preserving our swamps, bogs, wetlands and bayous and protecting them for generations of proud Cajuns to come.

Yes, we know we sound like a broken record, but these issues still concern our Republic. We've protected, defended, reserved, and preserved several of our ways and beliefs, but we still have to fight valiantly against uncivilized savages that fight against our way of life and what We Louisianians stand for. We're watching vigilantly against our enemies. First, Louisiana, and next the region she inhabits. Evolving and adapting a Louisiana for all Louisianians to a South for all Southerners. We shan't be cornered to one part of the continent. Our morals, values, and beliefs shall result in a future order. A territory without Mother Nature and her vicious attacks. A territory where wildlife and the environment will continue to sustain Louisianians. A territory of farmers, traders, and all sorts of Agrarian and agricultural peoples.

^{We have to protect our blue/white banners. The Left and other cultural and political enemies will rise-up red-white-black and red-yellow banners, but we've enshrined rightist values. Watching our peoples and keeping them safe, a safe populace is a secure populace, without protest or outcry. The enemies of the Silver Republic only want stagnation. Globalism and Internationalism are threats to our free society.}

The Federation of Malaya

January - December 2100

Policy Enactment
After 11 years of the formation of the Federation, the cabinet has agreed upon policies of expansion & development towards neighboring former states of the Malaya Peninsular, previously territories of Malaysia.

Construction of Johor-Singapore Bridge
With the environment constantly healing from the fallout of the nuclear war back in 2077, the Federation has decided upon the reconstruction of the Johor-Singapore Strait Bridge which will connect the Federation to Singapore. Previously, both bridges connecting the two provinces was destroyed due to a war erupting between the former nations of Malaysia & Singapore back during WW3. A total of 200 laborers are tasked with the bridge reconstruction with standard heavy machinery in order to alleviate the process. It is estimated that the bridge would be finished by 2103.

Military Assets Condition & R&D
The Federation is fortunate enough to reacquire military assets from the previous nation of Malaysia that was abandoned in military bases during the nuclear fallout phase. Although some of them are out of commission, there are some 4x4 vehicles, heavy land transports and IFV's still intact with a small number of AFV's available. Due to the resource war, powering military assets through gasoline & fuel is no longer an option thus the former nation of Malaysia had been using alternate source of energy to power these vehicles, which is electricity.

Since before the break of WW3, the former nation of Malaysia had already been adopting a version of exoskeleton designed for soldiers, albeit in small numbers. These exoskeletons are powered using solid state power cell which can be charged and used for a period of 10 years before needing replacement. These exoskeletons offer enhanced strength, agility with no cost in mobility thus allowing soldiers to carry more for longer distances. The military had found the previous R&D base for this technology located somewhere in Johor and are now currently reverse-engineering it so that it can be manufactured for present use.

January - October 2101

Development of Kluang District
Along with Bemban District in Malacca, Kluang located in central Johor is undergoing extensive infrastructure rehabilitation and development in order to increase its population capacity by improving water & electricity circulation in the districts to maximise efficiency. Currently the Federation is using hydroelectric dams in Johor & Muar River as well as windmills to power the national grid.

Expansion into Selangor state

With the Expansion Policy in effect, a military expedition force has been sent into Selangor to claim it for the Federation. In several national media press conferences before, the leaders of Johor & Malacca states that the reclaiming of previous Malaysia territories are essential in order for long term prosperity and development for the future generations of the people, increasing nationalistic ideas and morale.

Malaya Federation

March-May 2102

Selangor Incorporation & Development
The expedition force sent into the heart of Selangor have successfully captured the two major cities Kuala Lumpur & Seremban, a spokesman of the government revealed in national media. They were met with some resistance from local 'warlords' who only wield small arms as well as modified transports capable of housing a 50. cal machinegun on top. The Federation Army waging urban guerilla warfare in the streets and suburban areas manage to make quick progress through Selangor in under three months since the start of the expedition in June of 2101.

Since then the Federation government and military officials have been working on making peace with the respective warlords and in between the warlords themselves as the Federation offers the support of its entire territory in terms of management and resources to help develop Selangor and care for its people. Finally on the celebrated date of 20th April 2102, Selangor officially joins the Federation under the new appointed leader Mikael Saleh, a warlord who heads the strongest group taking control of Kuala Lumpur, Petaling Jaya & Cheras district. Military bases & installment in Selangor were also secured and several more war assets are now available to the Federation, although some of them are out of commission, due to lack of maintenance.

The infrastructure, factories & other key resource places are now in the process of evaluation in order to ascertain their viability to help the new Federation state to flourish and help the Federation further.

Rooftop & Indoor Farming
In order to provide for the food supplies across the Federation, the citizens had been taking the government advice to continue the practice of urban farming by growing plants on rooftops and indoors using techniques such as hydroponic since the formation of the Federation. However this practice has been used since before WW3 in the former nation of Malaysia, therefore some of the early pioneers have the knowledge through books or from their memories. This practice allows for more space to be converted into food growing spaces, increasing food supply as well as indirectly the morale of the nation as a whole.

Military Aviation Tech
Several years after the formation of the Federation, the military has been using small unmanned drones fitted with cameras and several other reconnaissance tech to patrol the borders and for other military needs. It hasn't been long since small ground missiles are fitted to these drones in order to deliver ordnance from above to pacify targets that are unreached by ground forces. New drones are now being developed to carry more missiles as well as better targeting systems for maximum efficiency of the drones. However, this does take a toll on the exosuit R&D currently going on as priority is given to the drone development.

Sciences, Arts and Sports

Increased studying and researching into Agriculture and ways to improve farming began recently. And also studying the weather and its changes, and how to adapt to the fogs.

Snow and winter sports like ice skating, hockey, skiing and snowboarding are becoming commonplace in the country, now that Louisianian Winters have drastically transformed.

Steps are being taken to stop Pollution and continue the preservation of clean waters in Louisiana, and also transforming some bodies of water so that canoeing and other water sports can take place.

Much old world technology was kept in the northern bunkers. Now that the Dynasty has access to repaired factories and a sizable workforce these technologies will soon be produced in mass.

Census Underway!

In order to help government administration and the allotment of resources a census of the Dynasty's population will begin.

"Добро пожаловать на лучший новостной канал на Земле! My name is Артём, and welcome to the Приморская сеть новостей. With Владивосток near the end of its rebuilding, we have moved our headquarters to it. Currently in Приморский край, the weather is sunny, with a low chance of rain. A great day!"

"Да. With reconstruction nearly complete, we will become the powerhouse of the Японское море! With the Свободный порт Владивосток being planned by the President, we can hope for a brilliant day for all of our братья и сестры in this nation."

"You didn't really have to bump in there, Ками, but ok. The establishment of a new naval base in the city is also happening, with plans being written out by the president. Port Gavan is to be used as a secondary base once this is planned out.

A new System

Members of the Government proposed either a three Louisiana or two Louisiana solution, despite cries of a fully unified Louisiana. It was a dream to unify, or atleast unite Louisiana, but despite the government and system of the Silver Republic, some divisions still existed, though probably because of Louisianian History. Ages ago, before the Silver Republic, Louisiana was a part of this "American Union," but also split between three; Redstick (Baton Rouge), Acadiana (South Louisiana) and North Louisiana, though now referred to as Shreveport-Monroe or Upper Louisiana , due to new sight. There was also geographic divisions (the Sabine and Mississippi rivers), as Louisiana held all lands east of the Sabine and formerly held the entire Miss. river in some old history/textbooks.

Although we're a united and one Republic dedicated to Democracy and Preservation, there's many things in the Future that could lead to division, such as those historical divides. Many call for the entire South to be united under our flag, while others call to take back all lands north of what's "Upper Louisiana," or, the former Louisianian Territory.

Sciences, Arts, Sports

Louisianian Science was mainly into agriculture, military tech, and biology/zoology, but recently, there have been cries to expand our technological sector and go into Robotics. Also, we will be rebuilding the old oil fields in the Gulf of Mexico. It's good to have varied supplies of energy and gas, although we focused on the Environment.

We'll also reverse-engineer some of the old weaponry used by the "Louisiana National Guard," and their vehicles.

Today's News

Repairs Begin On Clark Air Base and Subic Naval Base!

Two military bases that were hit during the initial moments of the war have begun to see activity once again. Construction crews and salvagers have now entered these grounds after being declared safe by Dynasty officials. It is the believe that high-tech weaponry and other technology in the underground storerooms of the base may have survived. It is the hope of the Dynasty that these materials can be recovered for reproduction and reverse engineering.

Forward Operating Base Established on Southern Coast of Taiwan!

A small group of warships and settlers from the Dynasty have established control of south Taiwan. Surviving population of the island were skeptical of the Dynasty at first, but the supplies and security that the Dynasty has provided has garnered rapport with the Taiwanese. From here the Dynasty will explore mainland and northern Asia hopefully finding neighbors.

Environmental Initiatives!

With much of the north hit hard during the nuclear war much of the environment suffered damage. The Dynasty has begun planting seeds and trees in hopes of reversing the ecological affects of the war.

News Flash:

Goedenavond, this is the 8 o'clock news.

Our first topic of the day is the civil war. It has been almost three years since the nation's rise in this civil conflict between Dutch states, yet the fighting is still ongoing on our rapidly expanding borders. Military theorists predict this conflict to still last about 2 years before it's conclusion.

'Overextending the lines will only work against us,' claims military expert Niels Kuipers. 'To be absolutely certain of our continued success against other parties in this civil war, the military has elected to keep two years as a sort deadline to work with. This is to give our experts in the field enough time to make good decisions instead of putting unnecessary amounts of stress on them which could lead to worsened decision making.'

The new infrastructure act passed by the government last year has been completely implemented. Many of the previously destroyed highways like the A2 have been restored to their former pristine condition before the third world war. Reviews made by commuters have been nothing but stellar. The president has recorded a message for us stating his gratitude for the support of the people.

'It truly warms my heart that so many of our beloved citizens share this positive experience as a result of hard lobbying work as well as hard labor committed by the many construction workers who got our high-, rail- and waterways back to functional levels. Works have already been set in motion connecting our eastern territories to this new and improved system. I hope to see all of the Netherlands soon being connected with this stellar system.'

Heartwarming words from our president to be certain. In other news: a high ranking political officer has been found dead in his apartment last night. The politician in question is Roderick Noordhof, a member of the opposition and outspoken anti-establishment politician. The method of his death seems to be by poisoning, being poisoned by radioactive material found in his wine that was laid across the floor next to him. Noordhof had no other members in his family, thus no witnesses have been able to be found except for the person that discovered his corpse. The nature of this incident remains unknown, states Amsterdam chief of police affairs: Daniel Leerdam.

'The only conclusion we can draw is that his death was caused by suicide, it's the only one with any merit whatsoever. No damage to any of his property has been discovered, there were no guests recorded to have visited him on the tragic night of his demise.'

Lastly, the weather forecast. Kristiaan?

Thank you Twan. As the November rains wash over our nation, the forecast shows that these rains will not halt anytime soon. Though snow is predicted to sweep in from the northern Scandinavian lands begin December.

OOC: another Dutch county thank you.
