Zhongguoaodaliya to Reinforce Borders

It was today announced that Audaliyanese some forces are being ordered to reinforce the eastern and western borders of the nation, controlled by the USC and North Timeria respectively. This has been announced to be a response to the Timerian reinforcements and it is only a defensive force, not offensive. The reinforcements were of 20,000 to the west and 50,000 to the east, with no statement made regarding vehicles, although at least two Tang fighter-bombers are believed to be present on either side. The Huangdi has made a statement on the matter.

"The United States of Conner and the nation of North Timeria have no intention of harming us, or so I hope. However, every action has an equal and opposite reaction, and our reaction is to prevent their reaction from leading to war. The force we sent is purely defensive, and is intended only to prevent hostile action, nothing more. We will defend our home from any invasion."

On another, slightly unrelated note, Huangdi Tzu Mongshui has officially requested permission to launch the meteorology satellite Jiaguwen Yi, which will be placed in geosynchronous orbit (where every two earth spins is equal to a single orbit, and the satellite will thus return to the same position it began relative to the surface every two days) by a Bianjian launcher. The Audaliyanese are awaiting permission to be granted in accordance with newly created orbital law.

President Hastad "We would like to apologize to the nation of Zhongguoaodaliya for any confusion we caused. North Timerian reinforcements are not in Australia to threaten their territory. We will be decreasing the number of troops on the border, which will hopefully ease tensions. We completely understand their reaction and would again like to apologize for the confusion."

Audaliyanese Withdraws Several Divisions From Borders

In response to Timerian action, which was to withdraw some troops from the border, Zhongguoaodaliya has done the same. A total of 30,000 troops have departed form the border to return to their original base. Similar to the reinforcement of the border, exact numbers of vehicles are yet to be revealed.

The Huangdi has made an official statement regarding these events: "This series of events is most fortunate for both of our nations, and shows that not every action warrants overreaction. It also shows that a peaceful solution is possible to reinforcing borders and that a needless bloodbath does not have it ensue every time someone moves a single tank a meter closer to a border. I would like to thank the President of North Timeria for his apology and for understanding our reaction."

Today, the long-trumpeted Jacovs Plan, praised by it's supporters as ingenious and blasted by it's enemies as pointless, finally went into voting in Congress. Having already fought over it for almost a year, no speeches were made as the votes were taken. Overall, the surprise result was a pass, with the final overall vote being 1167-586-247. As the plan has now passed, the aging Conner Dollar, having been beaten to a pulp during the recent economic explosion, will be replaced by the Standard Credit, or just the Credit. In addition, the Jacovs Plan has given the FEDGOV the authority to control trade in and out of the Americas via blockade. While the blockade has already been enacted around the Americas, cutting them off from Europe, Africa and Asia, President Conner Boehm has already promised that no Independent State trade will be stopped. He did not comment on the trade of the monarchies in the Americas, nor on the status of Genoan trade. He only said that all trade had been cut off except that with the Independent State AF and Europe. It is expected that Boehm, or more likely, Secretary of Trade Markus Abernathy, will be reopening trade within the next 72 hours. In addition, it is rumored that Abernathy will unveil the long-sought after American Trade Regulatory Body, an agency that will supposedly head trade regulations. More as we have it.

Jiaguwen Yi Launch Successful

This morning, at dawn, the Jiaguwen Yi was launched from an Audaliyanese launch pad. The meteorology satellite would help with determining the weather and identifying large storms, such as hurricanes, or other major natural disasters from space.

The craft was launched using an Audaliyanese rocket, the Bianjiang. This launcher was two stage, one stage would get it to the edge of the atmosphere and the second, much lighter stage would get it into orbit before detaching and burning retrograde, impacting the Pacific Ocean and thus preventing space debris.

The satellite is now active. The Huangdi has confirmed that Zhongguoaodaliya is now developing a space program and hopes to continue the exploration and utilisation of space. It is notable that the launch was authorised by the World Orbital Regulatory Agency before initiation.
