More Muslims Captured in Upper Norseland
Second Emergency Council Meeting Called as More are Detained

Earlier this morning, news outlets in Upper Norseland claimed that 6 more Muslims were captured as they tried to flee the country. Within an hour of the story being posted, every city saw hundreds of Taziristanis take to the streets in protest of the executions and of Upper Norseland itself. As the protests unfolded, police uncharacteristically stood by- and even joined in- as Norse flags were burnt, chants shouted, and traffic was blocked. While the Mayors of Port Dergo and Adam Ruh called for calm, the Islamic Guard did nothing to stop the protests.

As anger begins to rise, more protesters are expected to appear, especially after dark. Usually, the Islamic Guard would have already cleared the streets and forced a curfew upon hot spots like Port Dergo, Adam Ruh, and Tazir. However, many police officers have been seen burning flags of their own and firing their weapons at sketches and badly made effigies of King Ulfred. Remarkably, no businesses have been damaged and there has been no reported trouble from protesters when told to clear a street for traffic.

Despite the protests, there has been little word from the Palace in Adam Ruh, where an emergency meeting has been called of all senior members of government. The stated purpose was to "discuss all actions that could be taken to ensure that these executions are dealt with appropriately." However, the President's office did put out a statement asking all members of the public to cease attempts to contact or secure safe passage for any family or friends in Upper Norseland.

In the meantime, the trials for the six Muslims should begin sometime today.

Celebrations Rage

Throughout the Kingdom, the fires in many a tavern roar happily as celebrations carry on into the night. Since early this afternoon, Norsemen of all ages have rejoiced at the "swift and noble dispense of Justice" seen in the Kingdom over the past few days. According to reports from the Norse Royal Intelligence Agency, four of the six Muslims captured today whilst attemtping to flee the nation have been executed, all by decapitation, and the remaining two have been detained. His Excellency Ragnar Sigmund Ragnarsson of the House of Aesling, Jarl of Aelderich, when speaking to reporters shortly before the last execution, stated that

"[I] am incredibly happy to be here, and to be a part of keeping our culture and our country secure."

His statements seem to mirror those of the common people, amongst whom the mood can only be described as "joyful." When questioned about the growing international controversy, most stated that "this is simply the law being upheld."

In other news, His Royal Majesty departed the Kingdom for Versailles, Vioraux, where he will be attending the wedding of Victoire Antoinette and Willem Lostmorrow. Reports from the People's Republic of Prestatyn would seem to indicate that Lady Iola Pryce has also left the country, and the two are expected to arrive almost simultaneously. Further bulletins as events warrant.

The Undefined Nation of Leidan

Prime Minister Lara Heartstone has resigned early from her term as Prime Minister of The Free Land of Leidan. This has brought the nation into an election period of rediscovering itself, rebellion, and political turmoil. While it is not uncommon for this nation to deal with a series of rioting during its election period, the violence between the Nudist Party and the Research Party has risen to a level never seen before. From drug educed assaults to drone attacks, these two parties have been having issues coming to terms.

Nudist Party Elect Violet Sunhall and Research Party Elect Dr Elijah Squidsworth have each put out statements of peace in aims to end the violence. Dr. Elijah Squidsworth is leading in most polls, preaching a focus on opening up trade and reducing government to improve the nation's fairly average economy. Many within the Nudist party believe Dr. Squidsworth to be a puppet of corporations hailing from the countries within the League of the Western Isles. It has become common to see the League's flag burnt at these protest.

Though traditionally a tourist nation, this nation has mostly held to a type of political and economic isolation in the past. Leidan has some 13.7 million citizens giving them the potential to emerge onto the world's stage as either a leader, or a force to be reckoned with.

Corindi Biologists Announce 24 new Species of Fish Found in Corindi Waters

Corindi Biologists from a joint venture between the Department of the Environment and the Department of Science are pleased to report that they have identified and described two dozen new species of fish, including a new variety of grouper and two new types of seahorse. The venture, which largely was focused on the Carajo Reef off of the island of Quital, set out two months ago with a small submersible and many diving suits in tow. The discovery of these new species will likely be used to lobby for the ongoing campaign to add to the protected areas of Corindia's reefs, and is expected to boost the campaign's support among the public, despite fears that fishing takes will be reduced.

---

The new species of Grouper Mycteroperca colfaxen, is only known to inhabit the Carajo Reef, but it may exist elsewhere.

---

Hippocampus corelongatus is already being considered for placement on the endangered species list. Very few of it's kind were seen, although more studies will have to be done to determine whether this is due to a natural lack of population density or outside forces.

---

Hippocampus quitalar appears to be thriving within the reef, and was notable for its surprisingly aggressive behavior.

BREAKING NEWS: DESPITE DENOUNCEMENT OF UPPER NORSELAND IN MIDST OF RECENT CRISIS, PERAWIN STILL SUPPLIES NORSE ELITE BERSERKERS
In a breaking report released by Laxtes Perdan, leader of hacktivist group Lamp of Perawin, released thousands of classified documents revealing that Ubatan, with government knowledge, has willfully supplied Upper Norseland berserker troops. It's public knowledge that thousands of tons of devil's snare are exported yearly for use against "asthma" to Upper Norseland, which has recently attained intense international fire for their treatment of a Tazir family.

However, the new documents reveal that devil's snare was actually being shipped as usage for a hallucinogen which provides the finest berserker troops. Protestors broke out on the street in front of the Coliseum, and riots broke out in Anee. In an accident caused by riots crossing a highway in Perawin, one protestor has been killed.

"This was hidden from us! Why do we provide these monsters with this weapon? Why is our government lying?" the tag accompanying the documents dropped off at the office of PPBA read. The government and Ubatan have not issued a statement so far, although Ubatan's shares have tanked post market, causing lines outside of banks in preparation of money withdrawal as soon as banks are opened in the morning. New details will be released as the case develops.

Four More Executed, Protests Occur Through the Night

Last night, four more Taziristani citizens were executed, with two more being transferred to a prison. As the news hit the wire, the protests which had started earlier in the day drew massive crowds. Effigies of King Ulfred were burnt, shot by the Islamic Guard, and hung from trees to be beaten.

Before these four, whose names have not been released by the Norse, were executed, a delegate from Norseland appeared at the league to defend their actions. When questioned why Norseland was executing foreign nationals, the delegate responded coldly that this was simply their law. When told that this was not an acceptable answer, the Norseman stood and ranted as he left the room, challenging the League to stop him.

There has been no word form the government yet, but there have been a long string of meetings with the council.

The Minister of Defense Batiatus Sula has confirmed that the Gottfried area is now 100% cleared of foreign troops. The Minister made the declaration early this morning on CBC sunday morning programme "Weekly Covish". The Minister noted that based on his assessment the troops should have been out latest tomorrow. He is pleased to announce that they are all out of the area.


Troops arriving at Sentis Airbase

I am safe to announce that all our troops are finally out of Gottfried. Our final troops were airlifted out of the area around 11 pm Saturday night and arrived at Sentis Air Base around 3 am Sunday morning.

The Minister noted that he is pleased the troops are finally out to allow the Carpestani government to allow the area to be re-inducted into the greater part of the country.

I am proud of our troops participation in the sub-region, and even more proud that we have left with a successive outcome. I am now looking forward to Gottfied county to be once again incorporated into the greater part of the country.

Beaute Square Tax Money Used for Underwater Sports Complex

Podwonika Komplow (The Bayside Sports Complex) has finally been finished and will be opened on September 2nd on the shores of West Giben. The project started in 1996 but was never finished due to lack of money and The Revolutions. It was seen as a pariah for the govenment but the tax money from Beaute Square has finished it. It is a billion dollar sports complex built on the Giben Bay and some of it is underwater. It includes an American football stadium which can fit 85,000 people, a baseball stadium that can fit 56,000 people, an arena which can be used for basketball and hockey which can fit 23,000 people, an underwater tennis court, an underwater hotel, a small amusement park, restaurants, and much more.

New Trade Deal Signed

As the month comes to a close, August ends on a high note for Shanowinn. Ahern Gleann and Minister of the Exterior Innis' efforts to expand trade and relations with other nations in The Western Isles over the course of the summer appears to be quite successful. Most notably for political relations, Shanowinn's Brigid Ceallaigh serves as delegate to the formation of The Great Path alliance, and the government is particularly proud of its latest trade deal.

Minister of the Exterior Brian Innis personally concluded a meeting today with Athara Magarat, whereby both nations shall profit. Shanowinn is set to export a variety of goods including automobiles, rubber, zinc, and textiles in exchange for electronics and various Athara Magarati foodstuffs. "Techy" Owinns are already opening up discussions via online message boards about the impending influx of Magarati-made smartphones which should start arriving soon. "Foodies" may appreciate the incoming supplies of foodstuffs imported from Athara Magarat as there has traditionally been a shortage of that type of food.

Impending Knife Fight?

Editor,

As some of our men and women in uniform may have heard, Shanowinn has come to an economic agreement with Athara Magarat which includes the importing and exporting of various goods from each country. However one aspect that hasn't been mentioned in the news is the Ahernry's purchase of some Magarati kukri knives for the Royal Owinn Army. It appears that they will be tested and evaluated, and used for weapons familiarization at this time. Although weapons familiarization is hardly a bad thing--and our own falcata knife is fairly equivalent, I still have to wonder about the testing and evaluating. Does the ROA intend to evaluate their kukris for a potential replacing of falcatas?

I'm unsure whether this is a good or bad idea. I know people on both sides at this point but it may be too soon--maybe we ought to wait, for to gain a better understanding through future testing. But one further question needs to be asked: would a potential replacement be necessary? Particularly with a blade holding many similarities. I thought my fellow servicemembers would like to know about this but I warn not to jump to conclusions right now.

HRM Returns

As of 4:30 this sfternoon, His Royal Majesty Ulfred III has returned to his Kingdom. While originally he had left the Norselands for the wedding of Victoire Antoinette to the new Dauphin of Vioraux, Willem Lostmorrow, he reportedly extended his absence with several trips to renowned resorts and hotels throughout the region. Of more note, however, is the Special Guest he has brought in tow, one Lady Iola Pryce, eldest daughter to Delwin Pryce, Lord Protector of the People's Republic of Prestatyn. While His Majesty gave a brief address to the assorted newspersons assembled at Olferich International, Lady Pryce was seen to his immediate right (the place reserved for either the mother or spouse of the Monarch) for the duration, and was seen in very close proximity to HRM afterwards, riding in the same limousine, and being housed in the Royal Palace. No statement has been made regarding her presence in the Norselands, but much of Olferich is atwitter with speculation.

In other news, several more Monotheists have been caught by NRI personell after the tightening of the northern border two days ago. No numbers have been released by the NRI, but one local witness told us that "at least three" caravans had driven through the village of Aerostenvaed, a short distance from the NRI rally-point at the border. Details are expected to be released tomorrow.

Prince James II Academy for Human Potential Opens Doors to First Class

St. James II Academy Main Building, near Hastings, will serve as a new
form of education for its first class starting September 5th

HASTINGS, ATNA PREFECTURE, ATNAIA - After weeks of construction, planning and preparation, the Quorum's ambitious educational project, the Prince James II Academy for Human Potential, has welcomed its first class of students today in advance of next Monday's first day of classes. The school, whose stated goals are "the advancement of the extremes of human cognition and acumen", will utilize new and theoretical educational techniques to develop the burgeoning skills of gifted children taken out of the workhouse and debtor's prison systems.

"We are giving these children a new lease on life by not only taking them from a system that frequently traps children of potential, but also by providing them the finest developmental aid possible," said Armin Painter, the Quorum member who has been overseeing the project.

The intent of the project is to "move beyond prodigy and into true genius", developing the minds of the children in several marked ways.

"Ultimately, we want to see how far the human mind can go," Painter said. "By taking children who already show potential and controlling their environment, their emotional stimuli and their educational development, we hope to create a generation of minds that could rival the best and brightest of history."

When asked what their education would focus on, Painter explained that the curriculum would reflect an "extreme" version of the regular school curriculum.

"Where at an ordinary school will teach its students basic coding, we will be teaching our students how to think about the most advanced developments in programming and robotics," Painter said. "Where an ordinary school will teach children how to regurgitate facts about world history, we will be teaching our students how to disseminate analysis of the tactics of Alexander the Great. We won't just be teaching our students 'what' to think, we will be teaching our students 'how' to think."

The initial class has 50 students, aged between 6 and 14. The students will live at the school, where every element of their lives will be part of their curriculum.

"Everything from how they exercise to what entertainment is available to them will serve to develop them into true cognitive paradigms," Painter explained. "The lifestyle the school will provide has been carefully crafted to ensure these students will develop into the leaders of the future. Inventors, generals, theorists and captains of industry will be bred from this program. And as technology progresses, we hope to watch the program develop as well. Genomics and biotechnology will one day serve to further aid this advancement of human potential. We won't just achieve what is possible for humankind, we will surpass it, augment it. That is our goal."

After some initial criticism of the project for possible child endangerment, investigators from human rights groups have given the academy stunning reviews, lauding it for its focus on safety, health and well-being.

"The students will be fed the finest, healthiest meals, provided well-regimented and proper exercise, given an atmosphere of support for their abilities, all under the most technologically advanced educational facility that Quorum money could buy," said Quentin Brookstone of Atnaia Human Rights Watch. "This program should not only be supported, but applauded."

Schools across Atnaia open Monday under new Quorum educational structures and a new curriculum. Parents and students will be able to review the new system as it develops at http://www.atnaia.atn/education, to better enable its development.

Government Silent as More Muslims Are Executed

Last night, the KUN murdered an unknown number of Muslims under a rather different headline about the king returning from a foreign trip. One expert described the notation of murder as "a repugnant attempt to normalize their actions to the world."

As more and more Muslims are murdered, the less and less the public sees of any senior government officials. However, the president's staff did put this statement on their webpage:

"We are making every possible attempt to contact the Kingdom of Upper Norseland, but have so far been ignored after the event in the League. As such, we are working through other diplomatic efforts to end this crisis in a manner that suits all participants."

The statement, which is of a vastly different tone than an earlier one warning of dire consequences, has not been stated by any other branch of the government as Council Meetings continue.

In other news, troops are being mobilized on a "small scale", a military spokesperson said, "to participate in training exercises that would promote a more cooperative army."

While troop movements come at a time of unease in the nation and a current diplomatic crisis, the spokesperson assured reporters that there was "no real threat from the KUN."

At 3:37 PM today, two Muslims were put to death in Stagentvaed, with a Manichean remaining in custody. The three were captured last night attempting to cross the border into Troaso, and were taken into custody by the noble agents of the Norse Royal Intelligence Agency. According to the press release made by Thyrvald Sigurdsson, Deputy Director of the Nordesfold branch of the NRI, there were initially five targets, though two were shot when they attempted to flee. Since their capture last night, both Muslims recanted their faith and were beheaded, with the execution by evisceration of the Manichean, one Ander Storrisson, scheduled for 8:00 this evening.

One of the last few pictures of Mikoyan Systen before his death.

At 12:30 PM, a few hours after being in a private conference with the head of the Nationov Zoviet, Mikoyan Systen, the General Secretary of Eurania, had passed away. He died in the Premlin, where there is a scheduled day of mourning where businesses would be closed, while the flag was flown at half-flag.

Premier Angela Cheneko succeeded Systen under Euranian law, and gave a speech at the Premlin, a few hours after Systen's death. Below is an excerpt from her speech.

Code: Select all

It is a shame that Comrade Systen passed away while our great nation is in its darkest days. But his death will not go in vain. He will be award posthumously the Hero of Eurania, for his patient and contribution and attempts to steady our nation.

Announced at 7:30 this morning, His Royal Majesty Ulfred III, King of the Upper Norselands, has been officially married to the Lady Iola Pryce! According to Lief Sigmundsson Carthaigh, Royal Sorcerer, the ceremonies were performed late last night, and the marriage was declared official this morning. As of today, Lady Iola Pryce shall be known as Her Royal Majesty Iola Pryce, Queen Consort of the Upper Norselands. His Royal Majesty made the following statement,

"Good and loyal people of this Great and noble Kingdom. I am more blessed and joyful on this day than on any day since Burri first emerged from the Ice. We are all of us blessed to be joined to Her Royal Majesty, my magnificent bride, who shines with all the radiance of Sol."

The two have not been seen since the announcement, leaving the whole Kingdom abuzz with excitement.

In other news, a Taziri national and Muslim was found brutally murdered this morning. NRI Agents discovered the body of one Bülent İlhami, a citizen of Taziristan with influential family ties. The young man had been decapitated, emasculated, and disemboweled, and his body had been hung from a Sacred Tree a short distance from the Jarl's Summer Estate in Aelderich. His head was discovered some time later, horrifically beaten (investigators believe that the perpetrators of the murder played some sort of ball game with it) and impaled on a fencepost nearly three miles away. Official condolences have been offered to the government of Taziristan, along with Idols and Blodsilfr, as this is the first Taziri citizen to have met their end within the Kingdom. This incident is expected to exacerbate the already-tense relations between the Kingdom and the ITT, with some even fearing military repercussion. We will be following this story closely.

14 Skaijekjí of Norse Origin Killed By Lynch Mob

After the recent controversy surrounding the Norse executions of Monotheists, hostility has been growing amongst the small Norse immigrant population in Skaitsya, believed to be less than 200 individuals. While the Icsanekä people, descendent of Norse settlers from before the invention of gunpowder, have not been major targets of this hostility as of yet, it is likely that in some more extremist areas they may be targeted in the future. This hostility finally reached a peak this afternoon, with 14 Skaijekjí of recent Norse descent being dragged from their homes and off the street by mobs in Cargelä. These individuals were beaten before being hung on trees in the nearby park. They were later beheaded and their bodies burned. The Skaijekä military has intervened, sealing the park and surrounding area off while investigations take place. 1 individual with no known Norse background was also killed.

The Skaijekä government is offering military escorts to various military bases to those in danger of being captured by these mobs. All suspected members of the Cargelä lynch mobs are being hunted and upon capture will be detained until trial. If found guilty, they face the death penalty for Racially Motivated Murder.

President Responds to Killing of CEO's Son

At Noon today, the President, in his first public appearance since Tuesday, said that "the actions of Upper Norseland are outrageous and cruel acts of inhuman cruelty and should not and will not be allowed to rest. We will continue to try all diplomatic routes, but they have so far been unsuccessful. We Implore the Jarls of Upper Norseland to repeal your barbaric laws and let our citizens leave the nation."

This call is expected to go unanswered as critics begin to speak more loudly than ever, calling the president "weak" and a "Pushover" in many articles buzzing around the web. The CEO of Taziristani National Oil and Gas Company begged the government to "take all necessary action against Upper Norseland."

As tension mount, it is unknown what the government has been planning to do. However, they did announce that the family of the murdered Muslims have been receiving talisman and religious artifacts that are seen as attempts to cleanse the family of their wickedness with the presence of these items. All gifts from the Norse government have been destroyed.
