Today the People's Congression was called to Libra for an emergency meeting to discuss possible Libriran response to the worsening situation in POD. The Dictatorship of POD has been on the edge of a civil war for the entire year, however, recently tensions boiled over, to the point that several of the factions have deployed Nuclear weapons. "The wanton nature that these 'governors' deploy Weapons of Mass Destruction is what caught out attention, if they are so willing to use them on their own people, what's to stop them from using them on the rest of the world?" Commented the Premier Ivan Gurov, when questioned as to why the country should even consider intervening in another nations affairs. As if to symbolize the dangerous times we are in, the Army began to wheel AM/700s ABM launchers onto the outskirts of Libra, Nieper, Akron and other cities. The Emergency Meeting is expected to start tomorrow, and may last several days, as several Congressional members have expressed doubts of the value of Librira's involvement. When asked about the state of Librira's Defenses, the Secreteriat of Defense, Pyotr Madenskov said; "for sure there are some areas of concern in our defenses, however the Military will continue as we have since the revolution to defend the people of Librira no matter the odds, and should we get involved, every precaution will be taken to minimize casualties".

Embassy begins construction in Libra

A historic agreement was signed today between The People's United Republic of Librira and the Seven United, in which the Seven United would establish an embassy in Libra, The embassy will be located at 105 Mikoyan Street, about 3 blocks from the National Congression Hall. The Embassy will be overseen by Kevin D. Rodvejas, the official Ambassador from The Seven United to Librira. Construction is expected to start sometime this week, and estimated to take around 4 months to complete. Until its completion the Ambassador has been offered an temporary government housing in Libra that can be used as a consulate of sorts, until the embassy is finished.

MDAA Prevails Over The West Corentian Confederation: Allies Are Working On A New Integration Project

The temporarily defunct Miraya Defense Assistance Alignment (MDAA) has been fully rebooted and the military bloc is now “up and running” again, resuming all of its previous functions as before. MDAA had become superseded, when the three members of the alliance – Creperia, Edereon and Sunrisia sought to unite into a single confederation, which would have made MDAA pointless, as it would no longer be an international organization. Now that the countries had put aside West Corentian Confederacy plans, choosing to remain separate yet aligned, MDAA had been brought back once again, with all the original rules remaining. Bilateral assurances had already been exchanged with MDAA’s partner state – De Fleuves, where an agreement was made to resume the same joint global humanitarian efforts as previously. An identical deal was sealed with The White Dove (WD), which is a Sunrisian-based non-profit organization that also partnered with MDAA in a humanitarian sector, even though WD remains a non-political entity. Now, a dialogue has been reopened with another international organization – Blue-God, as MDAA reviews the possibility of making it another partner organization as well.

Meanwhile, as MDAA continues moving forward after rising from the ashes, the representatives of the Béâtídá administration have commented on the West Corentian confederation and further integration projects in the region. Speaking with the media, a spokesperson for President Sánît Béâtídá stated that Sunrisians had currently made their choice, while Ederis and Creperians are free to decide among themselves where to move further with the union. The representative stated that from what is known, it is a bit too early to put any labels on the confederation or to bury it, despite what the international opinion might be, however, he has also informed the press that there are other integral projects of Western Corentian countries currently in development, this time including Sunrisia into the mix. The spokesperson for the President referred to some of these projects as superior alternatives to building a confederation, yet, all the decisions are yet to be made by the government officials and citizens.

Heiress Returns Amid Growing Tensions

---

Earlier today Princess Krissal Idhnarnakots appeared once again in the public eye after an extended period of isolation following the death of her Father, King Garnaren III. She entered the Parliament building at 9:00am, and sat in on debate hour wherein she was called to the stage. After weighing in on multiple issues currently faced by the country, she formally announced her willingness to assume the throne as soon as possible. As such her coronation has been officially slated for March 23rd, 2017 as Eikangaard law does not permit the coronation of a new monarch until the prior monarch has been laid to rest.

This announcement comes amid heightened tensions between isolationist supporters and government offices, as Isolationists demand a return to Eikangaardi economic independence. The newly christened champions of this cause are multiple business leaders, who are taking a stand against the late King's economic and trade policies, specifically with regards to international corporations. Tenssudt Trevard, CEO of Rensveld Automotive, spoke on behalf of the united business leaders to protest these policies. "These laws are, simply put, a slap in the face of all major Eikangaardi businesses." He stated to the press. "While encouraging international trade is one thing, deliberately shooting our proud nation in the foot is quite another. These laws not only provide foreign nations an insurmountable advantage in the competitive market, but they also unjustly punish Eikangaardi business. This will have the effect of foreign companies and owners either stamping-out or buying-out our home-grown businesses and provide foreign powers with the tools they need to claim vast amounts of our resources for their own without permission by the Eikangaardi Government. I implore the people of Eikangaard to stand up and say no to these economic policies or be faced with Economic Servitude to foreign powers."

Elsewhere, news was brighter, as five water bombers from the Ministry of Parks and Recreation arrived in Wraamshige to assist in combating the Gréngebësch Forest Fire. The Bombers are stated to be on loan to the Wraamshige Government until such a time as the fire is contained and no longer in danger of affecting the surrounding population. In a statement, the Ministry stated that it was "hopeful that the continued efforts of domestic and international efforts in Wraamshige will be able to contain and snuff out the blaze in short order."

Major Terrorist Threat Prevented By Cill Airiochin Government

Qazvin, Eranshahir - A plot to kill the Royal Family of Eranshahir and hundreds of bystandards in the Eranian Capital City of Qazvin has been uncovered and prevented by the Cill Airiochin Secret Intelligence Service. The organisation behind the plot, known only as the Rezuolmâ Organisation has attempted previous attempts at over throwing the Eranian government in the past, most notably in 2008 when the Emperor was shot, though he survived the assassination attempt. The bombs, placed in various locations in stands in Qazvin ahead of the New Years festivities for this year, were meant to detonate - taking out several key members of the Eranian Imperial family, Eranian government and many civilians. Estimates suggest as many as 200 could have died in these attacks.

The Cill Airiochin Government, which was alerted to these attacks, notified local authorities of Rezuolmâ's plans and began to work with local authorities to defuse all bombs in the area. The Cill Airiochin Secret Intelligence Service also worked through the parade to ensure security for all in attendance. The Eranian government has highly praised Cill Airne for it's quick actions and prevention in a major terrorist attack in Eranshahir, and has praised its friendship.

Government keeps busy; Regional Bloc to Form, New Economic policies

National Congression Hall, Libra

The Central government has been unusually busy lately. Today the Secretariat of Foreign Relations announced that Librira and Esotana would be forming a regional bloc. Esotana which is an island nation to the north of Librira, started talks with the government a couple weeks ago. The working name for the bloc is the Western Socialist Bloc, though apparently that is still being nailed down. According to the Secretariat of Foreign Relations the main purpose is to achieve closer economic co-operation, with Librira's neighbors as opposed to a military alliance, though the Secretariats office stressed that such cooperation was not off the table should the Esotanians propose such a thing. Accompanying this announcement the Premier put Resolution No. 241 to the People's Congression, this resolution cuts Central sales taxes, encourages state and local governments to do the same, as well as other incentives to encourage the service industry. In his speech introducing the resolution the Premier said: "Librira is already an production powerhouse, however long gone are the days when simply producing physical goods allowed for economic success, In order to move Librira into the future, as well as to make our own industry more effective, I am putting forward this resolution". The resolution was introduced after a stalemate developed during the POD intervention debates taking place in the People's Congression currently. The resolution passed in a landslide victory of 189 for and 13 against. Snap polls indicated that such changes were welcome, many citizens appreciating the near halving of National Sales Taxes, and the potential tax incentives to new and existing service companies.

Possible Peace?

Two days ago the Rezuan government offered to be a mediator in an effort to bring peace to the Tao people. Six hours later the Shin No Tao Rengo accepted while the senate went through a long voting process, the resolution barely passed with 53% of the total vote. In the meantime Taoist forces are making sure the Terrorists know that they are fighting a losing war when they come to table, by launching a siege on the large cities of Miko and Shintao. The surprise attack allowed for around 15% of the cities to be retaken within four hours. We asked the Chancellor of Defence about the situation, he had this to say "After discussing a possible siege the other chancellors decided now was the perfect time for a preemptive strike in an effort to force the Terrorists to be reasonable during the peace talks.".

"Kaiming will not tolerate Western Involvement in Local Affairs"!

The Chairman has Assured the Nation this is the best solution

Huangse, Kaiming - The new Secretary General of the Communist Party and de facto leader of the People's Republic of Kaiming has issued a statement breaking his long silence since replacing his predecessor last December. In his statement he warned the world that "Kaiming will not tolerate Western involvement in Yàzhōu affairs". Being a traditionalist, the new Secretary General of Kaiming does not accept the Western Division of Continents and does not accept Ophion as a division as a continent, and instead classifies Kaiming - along with the nations of Divergia, Joljinia and Tao - as on the continent of Yàzhōu. Kaiming's traditional continental division is based more on culture and history, rather than geology.

The new Secretary General further stated he wishes to solidify relations between the neighbouring Yàzhōu states, and to work against foreign western states who seek to continue to oppress and spread their imperialist values into Yàzhōu. The Secretary General stated he hopes to meet with representatives of his neighbouring nations in the following months to begin working towards establishing solid relations between the Yàzhōuese states in hopes that a brighter, more prosperous future can be struck between them.

His statement concluded with a warning for those western nations who do continue to meddle in Yàzhōu affairs, "we will no longer tolerate it. We will no longer tolerate your presence. We will no longer tolerate your presence in Kaiming. We will no longer tolerate your imperialism in Kaiming. This is your warning. You may work with us, for the greater glory of the workers, or you may work against us. These are your options."

Naval Fleets Deployed To The Pacifica Ocean Due To Situation In POD
In a surprising move, Parliament decided that some form of support for allies was needed with the ongoing crisis in POD. An 79% majority voted "Yes" on sending a fleet of naval vessels to the northern Pacifica Ocean to assist in both naval and aerial operations along the allies of the Regal States, and any other nation that is helping to bring the already devastating civil in POD to a close. A spokesperson said that "It is necessary to lend a hand in these dark times and prevent something that has already went down a terrible path from getting any worse". Furthermore, Queen-Regnant Karen approved on the deployment of the navy, and also suggested that an increase of patrol in waters surrounding the Regal States should also be taken into account. Currently, the 2nd,4th, and 5th Navies are being sent to meet up with other foreign navies, with a message being sent out last night to many nations bordering the Pacifica Ocean. It is estimated that it would take around a week before the Regal Navy is near it's intended location. The MOD stressed that it must work with other navies in order to secure the waters from any hostilities. There is no word on whether or not submarines are being deployed.

We'll keep you posted as this story develops.

It's Official, Belantica Joins The Rhodeve Commonwealth
Many thought it wouldn't happen in a long time, but it did, and leading to more prosperity. Recently, Belantica and Rhodevus have decided to become even closer allies, with the Regal States becoming a member of the Rhodeve Commonwealth. Both heads of state, Diana Wolff and Karen Pearson, met in the Rhodeve city of Kingstown to discuss matters ranging from economic partnerships and military affairs, but cultural and scientific exchange programs. Between the years of 1789 and 1833, parts of southern Belantica once belonged to Rhodevus during imperial times for the country. Afterwards, the two nations begun to amend their differences and slowly rebuilt the mutual friendship over the last 130 years, including sending a team to partake in the Commonwealth Games since 1978, with two winning titles and a tie for the most points earned in a single game. The Queen-Regnant was quoted saying, "It's time to work together and create lasting partnership, friendship, and comradeship not just of Rhodevus, but with anyone willing to help make the world a better place." There is even talks about conducting military drills with the nation, as well as increasing the amount of trade that flows between the two. On top of that, both Belantic and Rhodeve citizens can travel, move to, and work between the two nation without the need to apply for a visa. As Mary-Ann Goldwyn, the Head Ambassador that represents the Regal States in Rhodevus, said, "We are at either side of the globe, almost a straight shot between the two. And despite many difference, we are very similar, and have done many great things together over the years."

Source of Gréngebësch Fire Found!

Dr. Fetze Wijngaarden holds up a piece of the culprit.

While the Gréngebësch Fire rages on elsewhere, the epicentre of the inferno, also known as the "blast site" has finally calmed and become safe for scientists to go down and find out what started this blaze. Upon looking around for a while and comparing the current location with old satellite images and records, they uncovered a course of events that is downright insane.

From various pieces of evidence, they have made this line of events: Some kind of damage happened to the protective awning over the gas tank at the Overheidsdienst station for Sector 5. The awning was then moved over to the repair station. At some point, a meteorite that broke off from some larger meteoroid that was entering the atmosphere impacted the fuel tank. Rather than hit the emergency depressurisation switch, the on-duty ranger, who was found to be the late Rosemarije Bladder, instead boarded their truck and tried to flee. She did not get far, though, as the fuel tank quickly exploded, launching a large chunk of red-hot shrapnel through the truck, killing Ms. Bladder and igniting the truck's fuel supply and reserve fuel on fire in a surely fantastic explosion. When the flaming accelerant came into contact with the dry forest that had not seen rain in 2 weeks, the fire grew and, as they say, expanded like wildfire.

Wraamshiger authorities are trying to come up with ways to prevent similar disasters in the future. For the moment, though, they will keep working with the international group of volunteers to extinguish the fire.

Wedding of King Edward II and Édith Gassion

The happy and young royal family

KINGSBRIDGE, CILL AIRNE - Thousands around the world watched on their televisions for a glimpse into the royal affairs of Cill Airne. This was the first time in history a Cill Airiochin royal wedding was broadcasted live on television, and it was watched live, globally, by Cill Airiochins and commonwealth citizens alike. The event and festivities itself began early in the hours here in Kingsbridge with many gathering outside of Kingsbridge Priory, lining the processional route where, in just a few hours, the King and future Queen of Cill Airne would be arriving along.

Across the nation people gathered in town squares and other public gathering spaces to watch in celebration together. As the day went on, the celebrations became more and more patriotic with the whole nation joining together in God Save the King as Edward II arrived at Kingsbridge Priory. The wedding was attended by foreign diplomats and royals who were personally invited by the Royal Couple. Amongst dignitaries in attendance were the Emperor and Empress of Eranshahir, who arrived in Cill Airne this morning, the Crown Prince and Princess of Kaiming, the Prime Minister of Soursis, representatives from several Commonwealth states, and several of Cill Airne's closest allies. Perhaps most surprisingly, however, was Ambassador Wu Zei from the People's Republic of Kaiming - who had previously stated the PRK would not be in attendance due to the Imperial Kaimingese family's attendance. What caused the change of heart remains unknown.

Following the wedding ceremony in Kingsbridge Priory, a private reception was held at the palace for the family and friends of the royal couple. It is unknown who was on the guest list for this event. Following the private reception and dinner, the Royal Family left the palace for Kingsbridge Airport where they departed for their honeymoon, which is only in part personal leisure. The tour of the commonwealth was scheduled to be in conjecture with the honeymoon to combine the duties of the royal couple. The two will first make an appearance in Athenasius, the newest member of the Cill Airiochin Commonwealth, then Eranshahir. Despite security concerns the King has insisted upon visiting Zhujiang, which was recently granted independence from the People's Republic of Kaiming following mass protests for independence and demands to rejoin the Cill Airiochin Commonwealth. Following their stop in Zhujiang the royal couple will visit Soursis, the Cill Airiochin Overseas Territory of Saint Stephens and finally Saint Crispin's Islands. Following Saint Crispin's Island the couple will visit Belantica and Rhodevus before returning home.

Kaiming Regime a Threat to Capslandian-Shangxi?

---

Prime Minister Chao called the comments "unhelpful"

Recent announcements from the renewed Kaiming regime have worried as well as angered politicians in Shangxi as well as in Capsland.

The Kaiming administration recently announced plans to halt 'Western Imperialism' - plans that are seen as very aggressive by the government of Shangxi.

Shangxi is the last bastion of the Capslandian colonial era. It won the city in the 1800s from the Kaiming Empire during the multiple RCSC trading wars in the area. The govenrment of Capsland, at the time, made a deal with the Empire to return the city however the communist revolution in Kaiming caused the government to pull out of the deal citing it as "void" due to the change of government.

The issues all stem back to the treaty giving Capsland the city. Due to the signatories only being between Capsland and the Kaiming Empire, the government has said it can only follow through with the treaty with the Kaiming Empire. The Emperor of Kaiming has been in exile since the revolution.

Not only the treaty, but the people of Shangxi are preventing the Capslandian government from handing the city over. Shangxi effectively runs itself as a sovereign nation with a Prime Minister and a fully functioning parliament with Capsland dealing with defence and international relations.

Prime Minister Chao has said that the current Kaiming government has no place in Shangxi but has said that he is open to negotiation between Capsland and Kaiming to resolve the issue.

But what about the USA? Capsland - and by extension Shangxi - pulled out of the USA during the last govenrment where a referendum decided the fate of Capslandian membership. Due to this there is little USA jurisdiction on this issue however Shangxi and the Capsland governments both said they are willing to let the USA try to organise a peace deal if the talks fail.

The timing of this couldn't come at a worse time. The Executive Chancellor faces his majority coalition going against him while the Senate prepare to debate on a snap-election should the GLA force the coalition to dissolve. A snap-election in Capsland now would certainly put Shangxi into an awkward place.

The Second 2017 Commissioner Election Debates Highlights

Today, the second Commissioner election debates went ahead in the University of The Trident in Celstead, over 200 people attended and the four main political party candidates arrived on time. The debate lasted an hour, shorter than the hour and a half from the first debate. Here are the highlights of the debate on S7NN1.


"The four candidates are standing beside eachother infront of their podiums."

What will you do to increase our energy independence while staying friendly to the environment?

Kanish flipped a page, and begun to speak. "Well, first of all, we are being absolutely robbed when it comes to energy. We are paying sky high prices and you wonder where that money comes from? The money comes from the big printers controlled by the government, whom have been printing stacks of Argents just to pay off things like this, and you wonder why our currency is so devalued." Some of the crowd claps, then Jeuves overruled him, and quickly spoke "First of all, as I am the former Chair of the Financial Committee so I should know this more than you. The reason our currency value has been going down and our inflation up is not due to the printing policy. This is due to the general economic slowdown the entirety of Sunalaya faces." Michelle comes in, "I'll tell you what Soldurs Des will do, we will open up new gas power stations and changing old dirty coal power to oil or gas. We are spending millions on importing power, while we can just improve our own perfectly sustainable system ourselves, for such a cheaper price, too."

What is your opinion on a Montedoran referendum?

When James begins to speak, the crowd clap "First of all, our stance is clear. We support a referendum, and we understand that the state is conflicted, but is in the wish of on-" Michelle raises her voice "That's ridiculous, James out of all people and you support one referendum which could split the Union." Some of the crowd boo, then Kanish takes his turn "Well, Michelle. The people of Montedoran want a referendum so give them one, what are you afraid of, huh? Scared that they will break apart from the bureaucratic mess called The Seven United?" Kanish steps away from his podium and looks at Kanish "If you elect Kanish as your commissioner, you won't be getting a commissioner at all. All you will be getting is Kanish Deary, the wrecker of the Union. He'll give referendums to every single state except the Bailor, crashing our economy into bits and investors will scatter away from the uncertainty. Kanish's plan is suicidal!" "Well, Jeuves you think it's suicidal but I am speaking for the people who are missed out. Those who can barely feed their families, all because of your party. I will not let that happen, and I will let the people chose their future."

5 months ago, a packet of sweets sourced from Cill Airne cost 3 Argents. Now, they cost over 5 Argents, what will you do to slow down inflation and currency devaluation?

Michelle came off her podium much to the same fashion as Jeuves, "Amazing question. Ofcourse, the Democrats have been the source of this inflation. El Dictator John Hague had pushed a printing programme to pay off debts as tax revenues have begun to drip drop with welfare programmes skyrocketing in cost. Generally, this programme wasn't enough to cause what we see today. once we found out about the so-called terror things jumped off a cliff. Ever since, we have been slowly going down and down. My solution, the only solution is to make our nation more suitable for large companies. We'll lower the corporation tax to a point we find more balanced. This will give more of an incen--" James takes over "Well Michelle that plan is absurd. All it's going to do is favour big business hugely while the little people lose out. It'll only cause more heartache to the people of our Union already feeling the squeeze of higher living costs and wage stagnation." Jeuves speaks up on the pause saying "It's funny how you haven't released your tax returns yet!" The crowd laugh and clap.








LATEST POLL OF POLLS:
We have seen a huge swing for The United Nationalists, while the main 3 parties have changed a little, and all have reduced. Support for the Liberals has died down from Unionists, all results will come 7th of April 2017.

Michelle Ahina: 28%
James Kavanagh: 26%
Jeuves D. Hueves 27%
Kanish Deary 16%
Other: 3%

"Well that's all we have today, come back to us tomorrow for an update on the news in The Seven United and all around the world."

Rhodeve Navies on the Move

It has been confirmed that the Royal Rhodeve Navies are activating and preparing to head out towards the danger zone that is Eastern Ophion.

Gun-toting Rebels Rise Up in Saint Verlossing

Kpt. Oluwafunmilola Schoenmaker patrolling with his unit just outside the city of St. Verlossing.

For ages, the Overseas State of St. Verlossing has been divided east-west between the Provinces of Kroonland and Wëllland, with Kroonland having most of the population. This divide runs deeper, as before 1812, the indigenous Mabe peoples were not permitted to freely live in Kroonland (unlike the Wakali people, who had adopted Ventismarian culture and ideals long before the arrival of Wramourischers to the area and held the same rights as Wramourischers), could not marry Ventismarians until 1890, could not vote until 1909, and could not hold positions of government until 1947. This has led to a fair amount of tension between the St. Verlossingers and the Mabe peoples.

That tension has come to a breaking point with the assassination of a Wakali MP representing part of Wëllland. Several Mabe tribes have taken up arms against Wraamshige and have occupied the Wëllland provincial capital, Shabunsambo. Shortly after taking the capital, they began to fortify the city, turning it into a fortress and declaring Wëllland to be an independent nation, which they call "Kouantangafo". Since the declaration, they began executing anyone in the city who opposed their occupation, along with any St. Verlossingers and Wakalis, have run multiple assaults on towns and military outposts in Saint Verlossing. The St. Verlossinger Guardsmen and UWAF have been deployed to engage the rebels while the UWAAC provides close-air support.

CRESEDER Established

Official Flag/Emblem of the Creperia, Sunrisia and Edereon Treaty (CRESEDER)

A new regional integration project replacing the Western Corentian union, has finally been unveiled. The Creperia, Sunrisia and Edereon Treaty, abbreviated and stylized as CRESEDER, is a free trade area and semi-regional organization with Creperia, Sunrisia and Edereon acting as its 3 founding and component members, something that the name obviously suggests. The negotiated agreement establishing CRESEDER was signed by Sunrisian and Creperian Presidents and Ederi Prime Minister in Aestin, after its negotiations were finalized through several trilateral summits in all 3 Western Corentian capitals.

CRESEDER would supersede the Western Corentian Free Trade Area agreement, which itself superseded the Western Corentian Free Trade Agreement that existed before it. Speaking at a joint news conference from the Presidential Palace along with his Creperian and Ederi counterparts, President Sánît Béâtídá explained that negotiating this treaty was a long and tough process, but was fortune finally completed. The Sunrisian President referred to CRESEDER as the “best middle ground that could have been reached”, stating that it was the best out of all possible integral projects that the 3 countries could have established, even hinting that it was superior to the confederation project. Elaborating on this position, President Béâtídá said:

“CRESEDER is definitely not a confederation/union state that West Corentia would have been, but it is neither a regional trade bloc or a political, customs or other type of union. It is a regional free trade area of a second level of economic integration. Our 3 countries have established an economic zone, which we would all be part of, however, it does not merge us to a level, where we would be so interdependent that we would practically have to act as a single political union. We are still free to control our own borders, as well as pursue our individual diplomatic, economic, military and other interests as well as follow our own paths and enact our own policies. In fact, in terms of economics, whether we choose to advance economic relations with other sovereign states and/or organizations, and do it individually or as CRESEDER, it would still bring different levels of economic benefit to our entire shared free trade area.

The Sunrisian government believes that CRESEDER surpasses by quality the treaties that existed before and which CRESEDER would supersede – the Western Corentian Free Trade Area and the Western Corentian Free Trade Agreement. In fact, our administration will not be cautious or dishonest and will state that we see CRESEDER as a superior and currently the best regional integration project that could exist, when looking back at all the hypothetical options that we had looked through, the superseded treaties that we had before now and even when comparing CRESEDER to the confederation plan. Still, let us not forget that only Sunrisians had voted to back out of the West Corentian confederation, while the Creperian and Ederi people still seem to hold an opposite opinion. Because of that, Sunrisia is in no position to speak of the future of the West Corentian confederation as we are not a part of this project and our country would only have any say on a matter, in case there is a need to renegotiate mutual agreements. The confederation’s future remains between Creperia and Edereon.

Meanwhile, as of now, our 3 sovereign states would live self-sufficiently, yet with friendly and neighborly relations, cooperating economically within our shared regional free trade area, which would be protected by MDAA, our common military alliance. A bright future is ahead of us and I would like to thank Mr. President and Mr. Prime Minister for accompanying me here today and for their efforts that allowed our national leaderships to work together to make these wonderful advances. Western Corentia will flourish even more.”

Many people are saying that the people affected have not been told about this. Jeuves D. Hueves called it "An amazing deal for two amazing nations. We strive for closer relations with all countries as we are such an open nation." It's unclear whether this was a campaign statement.

Humanitarian Operations Launched For Tao And Wraamshige: ACREFOR Deploys To Wraamshige

The Sunrisian Military has been ordered to lead more humanitarian efforts around the world, while being assisted by various non-profit organizations. This time, the provision of humanitarian help has been launched for the sovereign states of Tao and Wraamshige, both embroiled in internal conflict. Humanitarian efforts would traditionally include supply deliveries by air and sea, with humanitarian workers, medical personnel and other professionals, all of whom would be under the protection of the military, also coming in to work in these crises zones.

Tao is going through a military engagement between the government forces and what has been referred to as terrorist militia. A cease-fire or any form of truce is not yet in place, which is why the fighting is openly continuing, yet, the further turn of events now depends on the success of the peace talks in a third party state and how well they would go. Meanwhile, old ethnic rivalries had help rekindle the flames and an armed conflict has broken out on those grounds, with fighting also currently actively continuing.

The Béâtídá administration has said that equal effort will be put into both humanitarian operations and same attention will be given to helping both nations, however, at the moment, Sunrisia had gone a step further in terms of Wraamshige. According to the Department of Security, the rapid deployment force ACREFOR had been sent to Wraamshige to handle all peacekeeping and stabilization efforts in the country, until USA peacekeepers would take over. The Sunrisian ambassador to the USA was said to be already preparing to propose a resolution at the Security Council making it possible, along with the documents regarding Tao and POD situations.

King Rescues Man in Eranshahir!

The happy and young royal family

KINGSBRIDGE, CILL AIRNE - His Majesty, King Edward II (pictured to the right) is being hailed as a hero today after rescuing a young Eranian local from a burning building. The fire, which occurred in the late hours of last night just minutes away from the hotel the Royal Couple were staying in as part of their Commonwealth Tour, had trapped Mahmoud Firwaz, 28, inside the building. Due to the proximity to the hotel and Eranian Royal Palace it was determined putting the fire out was the first priority.

Upon hearing of a civilian trapped inside, Edward II jumped into action. Borrowing a suit from local firefighters, the Cill Airiochin King entered the burning building alone and was able to locate Mr. Firwaz, who had been knocked unconscious by the smoke. He was able to carry the man to safety outside of the building where he received medical treatment, whilst the local fire department continued to battle the flames.

The King has been hailed a hero, having been named Edward Pahlavân by the local media in Eranshahir. Pahlavân, in the local language, means a champion or a hero. Idya Firwaz, 26, the younger sister of the man rescued by the King told the media, "he's unlike anything we've ever seen! He was so selfless, when our own fire department was more concerned about just putting the flames out he wanted to rescue lives." Despite the songs of praise, Edward II has denied about heroic action. In a press conference following the events, the King told the associated press, "I did what was right and what was necessary. From my military training I knew I was able to rescue this man, who it seemed others had already accepted as having died in the flames. I am not a hero, I was simply in the right place at the right time."

Béla Petőfi Dead! Chaos Erupting in Magashegyi

Chaos has erupted in Magashegyi's national capital, Székesfehérvár, following the announcement of Béla Petőfi's death. Petőfi rose to power in the months following Cill Airne's withdrawal from Magashegyi during the Summer War which liberated the nation from the grasps of the dictator Géza Somogyi. Somogyi, responsible for the concentration camps that killed thousands of Jews, roma, gays and non-Catholics between 1993 and 2015, had overthrown the Magashegyian democratically elected government in 1990, quickly bringing about his reign of terror.

In 2015, with findings of international human rights violations, Cill Airne launched an USA-backed invasion of Magashegyi. Although initially successful, following Somogyi's trial for crimes against humanity the Cill Airiochin Occupation Forces (CAOF) left the nation pre-Election. This allowed for Somogyi's political party, known as ORDER in English and Sorrend in Hungarian to bully the people into reelecting it. Somogyi's political successor, Béla Petőfi, was named the democratically elected party leader. Pre-invasion laws quickly returned, and soon Magashegyi had returned to its old ways, as if Cill Airne had never liberated it in the first place.

But, through it all, there was always a light in the darkness. Many who now saw there were alternatives to ORDER rule in Magashegyi began to work against the nation. Having been branded terrorists and anti-government activists these men and women have worked since 2015 to try and over throw ORDER. With the announcement that Béla Petőfi is now dead, these activists have caused major problems in Székesfehérvár, from protests to rioting. With the aid of Cill Airiochin Special Forces working along side these activists, key government buildings have been taken back from ORDER.

Although the government has named his successor, Kapolcs Nándor, many do not believe Mr. Kapolcs has the support needed to continue ORDER rule in Magashegyi. A spokesperson from Cill Airne's government has stated "His Majesty's government is actively monitoring the situation. Several parts of the treaty signed in 2015 were not met. If the opportunity to reinforce the 2015 treaty while stabilising the government of Magashegyi arises, we will take this opportunity."

[Rezua]

World Is Getting Worse?
RezNews

There is increasing unrest in Wraamshige as armed conflict is about to unfold. Many are concerned for the lives of Rezuan aid workers that had been sent to Wraamshige earlier in the month to help put out the massive fire that swept the country. Parliament has called for both sides of the conflict to hold a ceasefire and sent representatives to Rezua in order to discuss what both sides want to see if a possible peaceful solution is possible. While Parliament does not agree with the assassination of the Wakali MP who represented part of Wëllland, they have said this does not give the tribes a right to murder civilians in the street. Parliament is strongly against a war and will not tolerate the targeting of non-combatants.

Further upsetting news comes from Magashegyi. A failed USA liberation of Magashegyi in 2015 had allowed a fascist to remain in power. During that time, the Rezuan Army had been unable to assist the people of Magashegyi due to the fact that the Summer War had just occurred. Now however, Parliament has made it a top priority that the people of Magashegyi are allowed to select their own government, whether it be a republic or a constitutional monarchy. The Rezuan Empire will not try to influence the elections in anyway, but will also not tolerate any internal or external force threatening or pressuring the people of Magashegyi. Prime Minister Hoelmon was quoted as saying:

"People of Magashegyi, do not vote out of fear of retribution. I want you to vote for what you believe is best for your country and what will give fair treatment to you and your neighbors. The Rezuan Empire will stand with you and will not allow anyone to punish you for picking who you truly want. We may not have been able to help prevent the mistreatment of your people in the past, but we are fully committed to helping you now."

In addition to these troubling events comes a received video from an IP address from Hasnak. There is currently no proof whether it actually came from Hasnak or the video was simply redirected to Hasnak. The video features a girl who is about twelve to fifteen years old claiming sovereignty over not only the Tsarist cause, but also over the entire Rezuan Empire. She also claims to be the daughter of Tyrant Zoey Hanji.

Greetings Kinsmen.

I am Sofia Hanji, daughter of Zoey Hanji, heir to the throne of the Empire. Many of you have reason to dislike the Tsarist cause. Indeed, even I disagree with some of their methods. The attack on civilians during New Year's Eve and in the Royal Tomb were out of my control to contain. Now, however, I have gained full control over my order. Never again will we target civilians without just cause.

I come before you today to tell you that we too are disgusted by the actions of the Hasnaki government and other governments who disrespect our empire. In order to be taken seriously, we must be willing to project and share our culture upon the world, like in the years past. Many try to criminalize us for our actions in the Second Global War. Yet we were not any worse than the so-called "enlightened" West. Our ways were destroyed not by them, but by the traitorous Everen family. The Everens began the divide of our people. The Everens let our empire be divided into East and West. The Everens let the West control us. The Everens let you down. However, when my mother came and saved you, you supported Ymira Everen. You hail her as if she were Solomon the Wise.

Ymira Everen is no hero. She has led you to death many times over peoples who'd first spit in your face than shake your hand. We tried to bring you back a united people, a return to an empire. What more can we offer you? What must we do to show you that we care for you?

I will be putting Ymira Everen on trial for the murder of my mother and for countless Rezuan lives. I understand that many of my generals are no better, but I have begun a cleansing process. I want to start over the right way. My father promised you that Ymira Everen would not give birth. That is a promise I now break. I will not charge a child for the crimes of her mother. Ymira Everen will be given a fair trial and, if found guilty, will receive a life-sentence or a painless death. I have nothing against your Empress other than she misleads you. I will then take the throne and properly guide you. I will even leave Christina Everen alive, for she was just another person used by her sister. Please give me a chance to help you.
