Former President Ress Fēlicit: “MDAA needs to relaunch and stay”

Former President Ress Fēlicit supports securing MDAA as an instrument of peace and protection of Western Corentia

---

---

Former President Ress Fēlicit spoke out about MDAA in a convention. Being regarded as one of the stronger Presidents of Creperia, his opinion on the Creperian-initiated alliance attracted special attention. The former President was firm and spoke out in full support for MDAA, stressing its importance:

“I would like to call for an end to all flip-flops in the case of MDAA and its future. We had falsely decided to declare an end to its existence when we decided to move forward with the West Corentian Confederation. Sure, it made sense, because if we were going to integrate its 3 only members into a single entity, then there’s no longer a point for an international military bloc like that to exist. At the time it made sense, but looking back now, it was a regrettable step. The same with that confederation. It was an interesting idea, but now it just seems bizarre and I am glad that we had decided to back out of it now.

Back to the point. MDAA is again defunct, because many naively thought that it has outlived its purpose and it’s time to move on. The present-day politicians are rushing their decisions. MDAA is a vital instrument for security. It has been a guarantee of peace in Western Corentia at the time when our region was most troubled. This alliance has helped avoid conflicts to a maximum and only faced a crisis in its early existence, with the whole situation in Edereon. MDAA was not as strong and integrated, so it was to be expected. And even then, MDAA was still able to secure and protect Ederi democracy and then quickly restore it. That country was reunified and Edereon proceeded to flourish under a democratic government and under MDAA protection. Same with Creperia. Our recent history is very troubled and our democracy has been fragile to say the least, but MDAA has solidified peace in Creperia. It has also kept us protected from terrorism, outside influence with all these Commonwealths spreading around, and helped us find unity in our countries and among our countries. The Western Corentian self-sufficiency, our way of life, our existence have all been protected.

I don’t think I need to say anything more. Officially bring back MDAA and don’t let it go. Also, open up possibilities for membership for more countries like The Seven United, if they’d like to join. I’d support it, if I were still President.”

Rhodeve-Allentyri Naval Exercises Begin this Sunday

In a yearly tradition that dates back to 1973, the Rhodeve and Allentyri Navies will be starting their annual naval exercises, located in the waters between the two countries. The two nations will be approximately 500 km South of the Ile du Myars, which will be used once again as the refueling station for both navies during the two-week long exercises.

Fleet Commander James Ruffalo is scheduled to lead the Royal Rhodeve Naval Forces in the exercises working in tandem with his equals from the Royal Allentyrian Navy. He told the press, "this years exercises are going to focus on improving response time as well as cooperative naval engagements. We are both planning to test out some new technologies that our governments have been working on that will allow for better communication and defensive capabilities of our ships. Like usual, the exercises will end with a war game between the two of our fleets. Let's break the streak!"

So far, the Royal Allentyrian Navy has won the last four war games held. Many Rhodeve naval soldiers are hoping to finally break this string of victories held by the RAN. "We like competition, but we are all friends. We work well together and I think we will only be coming closer together in the coming years," said General Nathanial Timmel.

Indeed, Rhodevus and Allentyr will be coming closer together with the plan to sign a military alliance preceding the start of the war games. This alliance will include an affirmation to the continuation of the annual naval exercises as well as a military base exchange between the countries among other details.

Historians debate the legacy of Creperian Grand Dukes

A popular question remains – which Grand Dukes of Creperia were heroes and which were tyrants?

---

---

Out of patriotic tradition, Creperians feel love and appreciation for our national history, which includes love, remembrance and respect for our historical figures. When talking about the topic of historical figures, the focus primarily transitions towards our nation’s first heads of state: the Grand Dukes of Creperia. Most of Creperian Grand Dukes are solidified in our people’s memories, but emotions vary depending on the personality and the figure’s legacy.

Based on the conclusions made by public surveys and observation of general attitudes, the majority of Grand Dukes are well-regarded by Creperians, even if not all of them may deserve it. The findings show that the only ruler viewed less positively than others, is the last Grand Duke of Creperia, who ruled before being overthrown in the Creperian Revolution that dissolved the Grand Duchy and established the First Republic. Still, even the last Grand Duke has not gone into history as a hated figure.

Historians are trying to keep the debate alive, in order to clearly help distinguish between Creperian Grand Dukes that were respectful national leaders and which were tyrants. Historians stress the importance of clearly separating those that should be looked up to and those that should not be held high, because it helps set the social standard for the future. Additionally, they emphasize that loving our rulers and historical figures (the ones that deserve it) is natural and comes out of pride, patriotism and appreciation, but neither should be glorified to a level of cult-of-personality.

The debate recently resurfaced into public attention again, after historians began address the City Councils across multiple districts of Creperia, in order to argue which monuments for particular Grand Dukes should be left standing as signs of remembrance and which ones should be probably be removed. The ones recommended for removal are of Grand Dukes leaning towards the status of a tyrant.

Allentyr to Create Military Alliance with Rhodevus -- by Signe Pedersen

Aalhavn, Midthjemland -- As the annual Allentyr-Rhodeve naval exercises begin this Sunday, the Allentyrian government has confirmed they will sign a treaty with the Rhodeve government to create a military alliance aimed at improving the mutual defense of both countries. "We've worked together for so long with the annual exercises with the Rhodeve military and I believe in my heart that this alliance is the right step forward for continued security of our great nations.", said Torvald Rasmussen, the Allentyrian Minister of Defense

Rhodeve forces would station 300 soldiers in a shared military base in the south of Allentyr near the city of Viborg, while 350 Allentyrian soldiers would be stationed in Rhodevus as part of the alliance.

Draft to be Brought Back -- by Annika Kjærgaard

Aalhavn, Midthjemland -- The government has just announced today that the draft will be brought back and will include more of the population than when it was abolished in an effort to strengthen national defense in the face of increasing global tension. More than 80% of eligible citizens aged 18-20 will be included in the draft, beginning this year, and will have to serve a year in the service they choose. Conscripts are forbidden from being sent abroad and will exclusively serve at home.

Opponents to the draft include Lars Nilsen, leader of the Green Party, who state that increasing militarization of the population is not the way to go in defending Allentyr's sovereignty and that the government should find other ways of improving security.

von Halberstadt Inspecting Newly Graduated Officers of the Wehrmacht and Kaiserliche-Garde.

The annual inspection of the Wehrmacht and the Kaiserliche-Garde occurred today, and this year's inspection hosted Schneestadt's Snow Princess Josephine von Halberstadt as the Reichsinspektor, accompanied by Generalinspekteur der Wehrmacht Walther von der Keyen. The event presented all branches of the Wehrmacht to the Reichsinspektor, with the Heer performing the Imperial March and displaying the advancements within armoured warfare in the Englean Heer. Presented today was the Standardpanzer E-100, a main battle tank armed with a 130mm Reichsmetall cannon, and the prototype Jagdpanzer JP-4005, a large tank armed with a 183mm howitzer designed for eliminating tanks developed for withstanding shots ranging from 120mm to 140mm. The massive turret had caught the Snow Princess by surprise, but soon realised that it was only a prototype. The Flugabwehrpanzer XII "Moskito," armed with two standard 35mm autocannons and air-to-ground missiles, was also presented. It is based on the hull of a Standardpanzer E-50 and is part of the new "Projekt-Luftüberlegenheit" program as a joint program between the Heer and the Luftstreitkräfte. Within the realm of the Luftstreitkräfte, three new aircraft were shown. The Junkern Ju-993 air superiority fighter, the Steinbacker Sb-222 strategic bomber, and the Stehlbrecher Sh-885 stealth attacker. Many of these technologies have been developed as a response to other nations' advancements within their militaries, and to ensure superiority over nations who may wish to "do the Kaiserreich harm."

The event serves as a show of force from the Kaiserreich, before the larger parades before the Kaiser in December. von Halberstadt had mentioned that the Kaiserreich had interest in assisting neighboring nations in the development of their militaries, and even offering the sale of weapons and other equipment. She also hinted at possible furthering of relations between Belantica and Allentyr. Overall, she and von der Keyen ensured that "...the world would remember that the Kaiserreich still is present and willing to aid those in need, and that any monarchist movements being oppressed in the world have a voice that is being heard - and the Kaiserreich will do anything in its power to liberate them from this oppression and lead a victory in the world over the scourge of communism. Heil dir im Siegerkranz."

Edereon makes successful recovery after the war

After restoring democracy and physically reunifying the country, Edereon has undergone a period of recovery. Today, that time period has ended, as Edereon has been rebuilt from the short war for freedom that it fought. Originally the mission was handled by the same organization that stood alongside Edereon in the fight, which was MDAA, but later the effort was taken over by the Active Response Force. The recovery mission engaged military, social worker personnel, finances and more resources. The combination worked out perfectly and the Kingdom is once again back on track. PM Féli Trãncilér thanked all those who served on behalf of Ederis and awarded them with medals. Now that the Active Response Force mission has ended, a withdrawal period would begin.

President Denounces Tadruydan

Jamestown Press Secretary Gennadiy Leonty read a statement from the President on the matter of Tadruydan. The Secretary stated that the Soviet takes the matter of Tadruydan very seriously, and is concerned with the country's use of weapons banned by the Assembly and states around the world. Tadruydan weaponize peaceful nuclear technology given to them by the United Sovereign States of Ophion during the Cold War. Since that time the USO and later the USJR continued a policy. No trade, students, art, or any offical diplomatic deals have been carried out between the two countries since the weaponizing of the nuclear technology. The Secretary stated this policy will continue into the foreseeable future. After those remarks, he read the statement.

"My administration strongly condemn any and all development of weapons of mass destruction created by the Tadruydan goverment. We will continue to refuse trade, friendship, or any diplomatic relations with the nation so long as they fragrantly disrespect not only our nation, but the world. It is our hope that the Assembly and diplomatic effort of the world will unite behind the cause of preventing these horrific weapons from being used."

The statement, from President Mortimer, is the first one on the matter during his new administration.

"Another Rebellion Ends in Bloodshed" says a recent defector

Another Rebellion in Tadruydan ends in the Government killing thousands

Northern Tadruydan, due to being poorer than the Coastal and Southern Providences of the nation, has been spared from the brainwashing propaganda that the people of the Southern Providences are commonly exposed too. However, due to the Northern Providence's Mineral Wealth, the populace of those providences have effectively been enslaved by the government, many working while earning very little to no pay, non-stop, 24/7, and have suffered the most from the Government's Brutal Regime, this has also effectively made the Northern Providences be home to Anti-Regime Rebel Groups who have hindered the mining process in a lot of these providences and have even sparked mining revolts.

Yesterday, the Government was met with a massive protest in the city of Egura, a major mining city, in which the protest quickly turned into a violent and briefly effective rebellion, proving to be a massive challenge for security forces and even the military briefly, with several military personnel, including high ranking officials, preforming a mutiny in support of the rebellion. The government, worried about how this rebellion spreading to other Northern Cities of major importance. As a result, Chlorine Gas was used on the populace of Egura to not just end the rebellion, but also kill a huge chunk of the city's population to reignite fear. A massive, nation-wide crackdown also took place, with the government using unethical methods to murder the populace of the Northern Territories to make them fear the government enough to make them never rebel again.

Edereon to increase defense spending to meet MDAA standards

PM Féli Trãncilér and the coalition government back securing the MDAA alliance. The polls show overwhelming public support for MDAA in Edereon, a position that the government shares and represents. Many remember that the alliance protected democratic Free Edereon and lived up to its mutual defense promises by taking military action when nationalist Edereon invaded. The Kingdom was reunified under democracy and continues to live in peace today, thanks to the alliance’s efforts. Ederis remain grateful to this day. Remembering that historical moment, seeing the benefits and no negative sides of MDAA membership, the nation speaks in favor of MDAA’s full return. PM Trãncilér informed the public that Edereon would have to meet the alliance’s standards by boosting defense spending, but the citizens said they don’t mind if it meant security.

Rumours of a possible coups begins to spring up

Rumours begin to spring up about the possibility of a coup, orchestrated by Rebel Groups. Due to the recent rebellions, many theorize that this is just a distraction made by the rebels. Last year, the rebels asked the international community for aid for Operation: Librauk, no-one knew what they meant as that, so they denied. However, that word has started to spring up again, and Carvo is worried. Carvo has tightened security across the nation, hoping to stop the coup before it even starts.

In Northern Tadruydan, the people of the Northern Providences, along with Mutineers, stage a massive rebellion in the nation, managing to take over 12 Northern Cities. This ultimately worries the government, and more forces are sent in, with many of them joining the mutineers in the process. Is this the beginning of a new civil war? Many believe so

[Edereon]

King Glac Crustal IV happy with remaining an Ederi King

His Highness King Glac Crustal IV has said that he is happy that the Royal Family remained exclusively for Edereon. The Royal Family was intended to become the monarchy of the West Corentian Confederation, when the union was planned. The King and the rest of the Royal Family were ready to accept the coronation as a the whole Union’s family at the time, but speaking today, His Highness said that he is happy that the allies decided to remain apart. The King said that his position created a bond exclusively with the people of Edereon, which he feels he would not have been able to share with others in the Union. His Highness also admitted that he was never able to become comfortable with being the last Royal Family of Edereon.

2017 Campaign Time Has Started

Artwingen -- As dictated by the constitution, active campaigning by political parties for the general elections can start exactly one month before the elections occur. On the 29th of June Lindians will flock to the ballot boxes to vote for their new government. On the first day of campaigning party leaders have gone out to the streets to hand out flyers and to answer questions that voters may have.

Political analyst Jan-Jaap Adriaanszoon says that the media bubble caused by social media sites will most likely cause the outcome of the election to be unexpected by many Lindians. He further argues that no matter what,
Lindian opinion will shift towards the right side of the political spectrum for a number of reasons, however the actual first polls will be released later this week.

The themes of the election will be about climate, the building of infrastructure and the construction of an additional international airport for Artwingen that would serve as a hub for the entirety of Ventismar.

National Referendum Results Show Bosanija is Ready for Change!

Jajce, Bosanija - Last week's referendum on removing restrictions on international trade and travel was highly debated in the months leading up to it. Many supporters of Nacionalni Narodna Stranka, the National People's Party, called it an attempt to destroy Bosanija's unique culture and heritage by opening its borders to foreigners. NNS has been the ruling party since the 1990 election, but support has been dwindling over the last few years. NNS Party Leader, Izet Hajrović, announced the referendum earlier this year after several protests occurred throughout the nation to remove restrictions in place. Izet Hajrović, who has led the NNS party since 1987, introduced the "Bosanija FIrst Act" in 1992 just two years after his election as Prime Minister of Bosanija.

The Bosanija First Act (bosna prvi čin) implemented restrictions on travelling outside of Bosanija and limited the number of tourists who could enter the nation. It also heavily restricted imports and exports, and ultimately aimed to make Bosanija self-sufficient and less reliant on foreign governments. However, food shortages have become increasingly common and many other goods, primarily electronics and automobiles, are nearly nonexistent in Bosanija. Most citizens who own computers and televisions purchased them illegally in Bosanija's numerous malo tržišta, "little markets" that sell illegally imported goods.

The referendum saw a 74% turnout rate, the highest in Bosanija's history. Out of the 74% that voted, only 23% voted in favour of keeping the restrictions in place. This overwhelming majority has demonstrated Hajrović's government has lost its popularity since it was first elected. With the referendum showing most Bosanijans are ready for change, Hajrović has announced the law will be appealed effective 4 July, exactly 25 years after it went into effect. This means Bosanijans will be permitted to travel outside of the nation, as well as tourists and trade goods. The Department of International Trade has already stated it has began to reach out to establish trade deals for resources that are in "immediate need" and has stated "luxury items like automobiles and electronics" will not be the primary focus until commodities such as food have been secured for the emerging nation.

Izet Hajrović has announced he will be stepping down as the leader of NNS following the humiliating defeat in the referendum. At 84 years old, Hajrović has stated he will be retiring to Bosanija's countryside. His successor, Ademir Kenović, told BNNC that he is "confident" that the Bosanijan people will vote for NNS in the upcoming election. However, preliminary polls have suggested the Konzervativna Partija and the Radnici Unija Partija are receiving higher support than the NNS, a party oft associated with Bosanija's misfortunes today. Elections are scheduled for 1 August following Hajrović's resignation.

AVE RES NOVAE!

Our long-fought struggle against the bourgeoisie of Rodham has come to an end. The May General Strike, led by workingpeople of all walks of life and galvanized by our Battalions' armed struggle, has brought the capital to its knees. The Bourgeoisie and much of the deep state has fled, failing to stop the iron treads of progress, but those who have been caught are awaiting further trial for crimes against the workers of this great nation.

As of the 29th of May, 2017, the United Rodham States is no longer, and henceforth all land controlled by the URS is seized by the Corentian People's Republic. Comrade-Colonel John Jack Reed of the Corentian Labour Battalions and the People's Commission will be overseeing the transition of government. It is expected that the first meeting of the House of Representatives will be within the coming 2 months, as well as the Revolutionary Economics Committee to organize our trade unions and an economy for the people, by the people.

God bless those who died for the workingman's struggle. Rest in power, friends of labour.

Esotanan MPs campaign to increase Esotanan military budget

---

Esotan, Esotana In the midst recent session of the People's Assembly many Esotanan MPs called for the increase of the Esotanan Millitary Budget and for the Esotanan Military to take a more assertive role in international politics, in order to combat the "fascist threat" in Southern Corentia. Civilian Groups have joined in for support for the increase however polls still show many Esotanans are against an increase.
We reached out to several MPs for interviews to explain their reasoning for supporting an increase, "In South Corentia we are seeing more assertive powers against many of the ideals that are essential to the Esotanan State. States that oppose diversity and want to create an anti communist bloc in the region. These course of events seem very similar to the ones we saw in WW2, and if we don't act the vet survival of Esotana could be jepordy. Esotana is more than rich enough to pay the trival amount of tax dollars to fund this raise, is that so much to ask for our survival?".
In a separate interview with an anti increase MP we got the following comment, "Esotana is not in the major threat my comrades make it out to be. These countries are thousands of miles away in dry climates, an invasion would be very difficult. Instead if we are worried about a threat Esotanans should form militias and fund militas of our fellow comrades to make an invasion impossible. Pacifism has been a key defining feature of our state and we shouldn't destory it due to some new found assertiveness by some states."
The debate has turned nation wide with many Esotanans​ becoming interested in the topic. Esotanan News has broadcasted information about these issues non-stop, and Kamia has reported it is the current largest source of conversation and news among it's Esotana Region. The Esotanan Government is expected to hold a referenda on the 1st of June over the raise. Stay tuned

Corentia Heating Up Again?
Tensions are high again on mainland Corentia,with a recent republic being overthrown in a socialist uprising, and many nations starting to bump up their military budgets, including the Royal States. This is leading to concerns for Parliament saying that "If someone doesn't keep them in check, they will try to come here and dismantle our nation ice by piece until there is nothing left." Belantica has already raised the military budget earlier this year, citing it as a "decisive move in a turbulent region" according to a representative from the Ministry of Defense. The government reported that at this current time, there is no potential threats of the nation's security, however, MOD has cited that even with the low threat risk, that citizens and personnel should "keep an eye open and be alert." As for the URS, Parliament has not made a statement aside that they are watching for any updates on that revolution, while Queen Karen stated that it's "Kind of s shame in the end" that the URS went down so quickly and went anti-Western relatively quickly. She also said that "It would be appreciated if they continue to cooperate with their fellow neighbors, capitalist or not, including Belantica." On top of that she also stated that "Any motives to expand any far-left uprising into Belantica, her allies, or her neighbors will be dealt with with swift and unrelenting force, which we would rather not, but will if need be. The Queen is also currently working on improving relations with the Englean Kaiserreich, hopefully allowing for ther Kaiser or visit, or vice versa, saying that "We're better as allies than enemies, and be can still keep our friendly rivaly that both of us love to partake in." As more news comes in, we'll be on top of it.

Molenstoni Military Build-Up Along Malesti-Bohi Border


Soldiers in the Molenston National Army marching from Ignesville to the border

The MNA (Molenston National Army) has begun to activate divisions of its military to be stationed along the borders with The Bohin. After some six years of peace and peaceful relations between the two countries, this military defense maneuver is to counter the recent satellite photographs of Bohi short-range missiles moving closer to Molenston, positioning them in range of Molenston City, the capital of the nation.

"We do not wish for conflict to spring up once again between our nations. We are still hoping that a lasting peace can be achieved between our countries, after a millennia of wars and fighting." Chieftain Sunni Bwuba commented during a press conference on the issue. "No, we do not yet plan on asking for any assistance from our allies or fellow Commonwealth nations at this time. We still believe that discussions can take place and there can be a continuation of non-violence."

So far, the Bohinian government has yet to comment on the movement of its short-range missiles as well as the recently leaked photographs and videos of Bohi tanks being painted with anti-Molenston messages, as well as locations in Molenston. There has yet to be any confirmed rumours that The Bohin is planning an attack or an invasion of Molenston. But, during official press conferences, the Bohi government have questioned the sanity and value of the land exchange between the two countries which took place early last year, officially ending the 3rd Malesti-Bohi War; which had begun as a part of World War Two.

Westseaxnaland and Confederate States to Send Aid to Bosanija!

Jajce, Bosanija - Just a day after the announcement that the government will be repealing the Bosanijan First Act, which is responsible for the mass and rampant poverty and starvation in Bosanija, the government has announced that representatives from both Westseaxnaland and the Confederate States have reached out to send aid to the people of Bosanija. Both nation's governments have stated that they will be sending surplus foodstuffs to the nation, and several charities have begun working with the governments of both nations and Bosanija to organize food and clean drinking water to the nation.

The government of Westseaxnaland has also stated they will attempt to help the nation of Bosanija to enter the 21st century, helping to fund the updating and modernization of its current infrastructure to provide more stable electricity to the nation to combat the frequent and widespread blackouts. This will be necessary as with the repeal of the Bosanijan First Act more modern goods will enter the nation legally, such as computers and mobile phones. It is estimated that the project to modernize the nation's electrical grid will take a year with foreign aid from the Westseaxen Commonwealth.

With increased food products entering the nation a more prosperous future can be secured for the nation, with hopes that the continued modernization of the nation will lead to a more sufficient and prosperous lifestyle for the Bosanijan people. With modernization more jobs will become available within the nation to meed the demands, though it remains unknown how this will effect the Bosanijan military. Approximately 3% of Bosanijans serve active duty in the military, around 114,870, due to it being the most secure job in the nation currently. Bosanija maintains a large military due to its poor relations with the neighboring nation of Vukmire but with more jobs created for new more modern industries in the nation it remains unknown if this trend will continue.

Bosanija Votes To Join USA!

Jajce, Bosanija - As part of the government referendum recently held ending the Bosanijan First Act the Skupština, Parliament, has voted on joining the United Sunalaya Assembly. Bosanija has held a vote on joining the international organization in January of 2016 which had 63% of parliamentarians vote in favor of joining the organization. However, the Federalnom Sudu (Federal Court) stated it was in violation of the Bosanija First Act and voided the organization.

Today's vote saw 67% of Parliamentarians vote in favor of joining the organization. The vote also named Ahmed Bučan as the first ambassador to the USA. Mr Bučan served as ambassador to Athenasius from 2003 to 2016 - one of the few countries that has maintained relations with the secluded nation of Bosanija. He has stated he will accept this honor and hopes to use the USA as a tool to help improve the situation in Bosanija within the perimeters of its framework. It remains unknown whether or not the USA will accept Bosanija as a member of the organization.

Today also saw two more nations joining in the Confederate States and Westseaxnaland's aid to the Bosanijan people. Athenasius and Jeongui both have reached out to the Government of Bosanija to provide assistance to the starving people of the nation.

Wehrmacht Presents New Tank, the Kaiser Offers Relations to Belantica

Standardpanzer E-101 Presented to the Kaiser

The E-101, Dressed Fully in Reactive Armour

---

After years of designing an upgraded replacement for the Jaguar III, the engineers at Rheinmetall have a definite result: the Standardpanzer E-101. The E-101 is currently the second tank designed by Rheinmetall in the Zukunftpanzer program instituted by the Oberkommando des Heeres for a new main battle tank in the 21st Century. The tank has the ability to mount a 120, 130, or 140mm cannon and up to 20mm calibre for the secondary weapon. The maximum speed for the E-101 is 45 mph, which allows it to cross distances at ease; while utilising its stabiliser to fire on the move. Currently these two tanks have been the only designs submitted, yet it is rumoured that Meibach and Heinschel have a bid in this competition and will be presenting their designs later. The E-101 was presented to the Chiefs of Staff of the Oberkommando der Wehrmacht, Reichsmarschall Herrenberg, and Kaiser Konrad II. It was viewed favourably when presented today, although the final decisions will be made later when these vehicles are further tested in their performances.

After viewing the designs, the Kaiser was inquired about the recent offer of Belantica to begin further relations between the Englean Kaiserreich and Belantica. In response, he stated that "...Relations between the Kaiserreich and the Belantican monarchy is one of my priorities, and I would be willing to create an alliance between two powerful monarchies such as ourselves. Both nations share many common beliefs and goals within Sunalaya, and both of our nations could benefit from cooperation between the two. I offer a diplomatic meeting between the two nations in Engelberg, or their capital if they prefer."

Merzedes-Benz Reveals New SUV Model, While BMV "Goes Electric"

The 2017 Merzedes-Benz Geländewagen 299

---

While the military was enjoying the presentation of new battle tanks, the automotive world was relishing two entries from the luxury giants Merzedes and BMV. While Merzedes continued with the standard engine of vehicles, BMV transitioned into continuing its efforts in ditching gas engines and creating electric luxury vehicles. These vehicles were presented in Stuttgern, at the annual Engleanisches Automobil-Ausstellung, one of the Kingdom of Sangarn-Strelitz's most prized events. First to be shown was the 2017 Merzedes-Benz Geländewagen 299, a continuation off of the previous Geländewagen 100 that was produced from 1970-2011. This SUV retains its ultra-luxurious interior, while also enjoying a powerful V8 engine for usage in any situation - even being employed in the Wehrmacht. The vehicle has been stated to be capable of enduring anything, within reason, and will serve its owner excellently. Merzedes is offering this vehicle to the international stage, even offering Rhodevus' Queen Diana Wolff with a custom vehicle to compliment her current BMV X5. The other variant of the vehicle, the "G-Regierungwagen," is currently being offered to foreign governments for vehicles for their officials.

Next came the BMV e2 "Elektrowagen-2." A mix of the classic BMV sportscar and their electric cars, the e2 was presented as the ultimate car for those who want to save on gasoline but not sacrifice performance and power. The e2 comes as BMV has been expanding its electric vehicle presence within Sunalaya, hoping to surpass Esotana's electric vehicle producers and give their spot to the Kaiserreich. The e2 comes in two different formats, fully electric (termed the e2(EV) and a plug-in hybrid (termed the e2(PH). BMV boasted a 146 mile range for the e2EV, and a 300 mile range for the e2PH. The e2 will be offered to the international stage as well, and will be entering BMV dealerships in Corentia next month and in Ventismar in July.

Politburo Stands Firmly With PRC

Kirkubah, Drasuvania -

G-S Comrade Taraki has made an official statement regarding the new developments in Corentia, regarding them as Drasuvania's "new brothers across the pond" along with Librira and Esotana. Comrade Taraki, an always ardent supporter of internationalism, was at first wary of the militarism and nationalism displayed by the coup's self-styled "swift right hook of the people" Corentian Labour Battalions, a paramilitary group of former soldiers, thrill-seekers and some say even gang members from the nation's lucrative drug trade. Concerns over the group's purity were tided when efforts to integrate these paramilitaries into the overall socialist struggle and the election of their supreme commander, what we here in Drasuvania would call a high-ranking commissar of sorts that handles the economic, social and political aspects of the Battalions' daily operations and mission.

No word has officially been said on what kind of support the new republic will be getting from Drasuvania, but other nations have already engaged in diplomacy. Most notably is Rhodevus, who has reportedly been in renegotiation for trade deals to suit the new socialist nation's demands, as well as sending medical aid to support publicly-funded hospitals for the time being.

AVE RES NOVAE!
Skirmishes continue in the Great Lakes region and Rogado state!

"Our boys are fighting valiantly" says Colonel Allen Moses, leader of the 12th "Weedwackers" People's Guard. For weeks, they've been drudging in the thick forest terrain of Rogado, living off the rich land that's beneath the cover of broken branches and leaves. Mostly, they've encountered remnants of the military who've ganged up with the many armed reactionaries and few police in Rogado's rural areas and have turned the Guerrilla war upside-down. "It ain't that hard" Moses said, beginning a raspy laugh "I just wish I had some goddamn helicopters". Operations are often based on small unit patrols and recon missions, keeping the unit on their toes as they clear out Rogado of any reactionary presence. Although many armed services members did turn to our movement, most equipment from the air force has been deemed either completely destroyed due to sabotage (through friend and foe alike) or in disrepair unsuitable for air operations. The prospect of aid from the SCC, who seem ever-eager for a prosperous Corentia, has greatly improved morale on the front. Victory seems closer than ever.

Merzedes and BMV Fighting Over the Queen
Nearly one year ago, Queen Diana Wolff bought her first car while in office as the monarch. This vehicle being the very popular BMV X5 made by the Englean automotive powerhouse BMV. With the announcement of the new line of luxury vehicles coming from Engleberg, it was a pleasant surprise to hear that Merzedes has offered the queen with the company's new Geländewagen 299 as a gift. Merzedes will be glad to hear that the senate has accepted the offer on the queen's behalf. Why is the queen not accepting it herself? Well, this is due to one of the stranger Rhodeve laws, which allows monarchs to accept international gifts, but they are not allowed to bring any attention to the gift, aside from its use. Don't worry Merzedes, Diana along with her newborn son Bellami already have a cross country trip planned to visit all the major cities of the country. This is sure to give the SUV some great national exposure.

Rhodevus to send Aid to the new Corentian People's Republic. Trade Agreement in the Works

The Corentian People's Republic is a new nation having just begun their transition to communism through a massive populist uprising and rebellion. Like always for the country, Rhodevus has offered medical aid to the local hospitals and medical clinics as well as asked to send in medical staff and volunteers to help the civilian population, both those who do and do not fight on either side. The two nations also have a trade agreement in the works, to be signed and finalized in early June.

Wimbly Boats to Engleberg

The Rhodeve shipyard company of Wimbly Boats have announced their expansion into Engleberg. Engleberg being another large ship-building nation, will expand Wimbly Boat's ship-building capabilities as it continues to sell private yachts, sailing boats, fishing boats and other smaller vessels for public and private consumption.
