Rodarian Tanker sunk from torpedo, says MoD

Image




Nov. 8

Saxonople, FCP- The Papal Republic of Rodarion, a nation which sits in Pardes, has been known by the FCP and others over it's theocratic policies. However, nothing has angered the federation more than the passing of the ''Faith Acts'' by the theocratic regime. There was hope however, in late August, the Papal Republic elected Alexandrescu, a man who many outside of Rodarion thought would provide a ''positive'' change. However they couldn't have been more wrong.

In late October a massive police raid coordinated most likely through the Papacy and the government itself raided homes in the twilight hours of dawn, and arrested 385 people. Including that of Vladimir Bratescu, in the report, he was arrested for breaking the ''Faith Acts'' on ''eighteen counts of Overt Sexual Behaviour, six counts of confirmed homosexual behaviour, seven counts of distributing pornograhpy, five counts of reading illegal material and three counts of distributing said material.'' ''The Ministry for Christian Culture has stated that the huge operation 'was necessary for the preservation of religious unity and continued social stability'.''

The picture which was shown of Bratescu, displayed that these ''criminals'' were possibly living in deplorable conditions. By November 3rd, it was made public that Bratescu was to be executed, this sparked out cries in the FCP with one riot getting out of hand in Sarlia. Including other riots abroad such as in Belfras in Nos Callis. On November 7th, the IT consultant, Vladimir Bratescu was executed, the news which was broadcasted on the media.

After the execution, President Anina called for a meeting with Parliament, the Crown and the Judicial Administration. After the meeting was finished behind closed doors, all three parties were in agreement. Anina who addressed reporter's questions after the meeting stated that, ''His Majesty will address on national television, the situation with Rodarion shortly. After recent events carried out by the government of the Papal Republic. Military Police have been ordered to detain the Rodarian ambassador, his staff, and family, and put them on a flight home tonight. The Rodarian embassy will then be closed, Parliament has stated with majority vote, that Rodarion has lost all trading privileges with the FCP, and that the FCP no longer recognizes the sovereignty of the Rodarian Government.''

His Majesty who was on several news stations last night, addressed the public of the situation. The speech he gave is outlined below;

''My fellow Pravene, Yesterday on November the 7th, the Papal Republic of Rodarion ordered the execution of Vladimir Bratescu, an IT consultant who had broken several laws of the commonly known 'Faith Acts', Madame President Anina earlier today called a meeting with the government where it was decided by the majority. A few hours ago, Military Police were ordered to enter the Rodarian Embassy, and ensure that the ambassador, staff, and family were placed upon a plane and sent home tonight.

This followed the decision during the meeting, stripping the Rodarian government of recognized sovereignty by the FCP. With that, Rodarion will be subject to an Oil Embargo by the FCP, cutting all trades with the nation. Rodarian Oil Tanker with in Pravene waters will be ordered to leave, empty. The Navy has been given orders that tankers who attempt to leave Pravene waters still loaded will be subject to aggression.''


Last night, the Rodarian Oil tanker, Cervescu left Pravene waters attempting to bring the Oil it had loaded back to Pardes. The Pravene navy, pursued the tanker before it was struck with a torpedo. Naval personnel and the MoD stated, that because the ship under it's captain was fleeing Pravene waters, well aware of the orders, and after several attempts by the Royal Navy to have the ship stop and return to the FCP to have its cargo unloaded, that the ship was then struck with a torpedo which ignited the oil and sat much of the ship ablaze.

The MoD stated that the Cervescu was then boarded, and the crew taken off ship. Three were killed in the torpedo hit, and another eight injured, which have been sent to a military medical facility. The MoD said that the FCP will send the crew home to Rodarion, and that the three who were killed in the attack will be flown home. Merchant ships from the FCP have been ordered to steer clear of Pardes, while regulations over the embargo are still under wraps. The Cervescu, the MoD said was sunk in International waters.

Asigna Philippine army hold gargantuan military parade in the city of Manila

Image


Manila, Greater Malayan bayan. Currently, the Asigna party is holding another political rally and a military parade in the middle of Kota Maynila (The city of Manila). Traffic is suspended in the affected streets near the boulevard, Edsa and the gate to the north express way. Luneta park in itself would be open for the public as the punong himself will make his speech. The military march has featured the latest innovations, equipment and the gargantuan Asigna women and men infantry squadron. Currently, Asigna Philippines is at war with China and possesses one of the largest armed forces in the region.

Sivonia Agrees to Start Talks with Lavrinia

11/10/2013, Alexius
Today Foreign Minister Sergei Rosopov announced that Sivonia is willing to begin negotiating with Lavrinia, which would be the first time the two nations have engaged in diplomatic relations since the 1970's. Throughout history, Lavrinia was under the control of the Weiburg family,who set up an absolute monarchy in Lavrinia in the early 1300's. By 1880 the Lavrinian people revolted, and created a weak republican government loosely based on Sivonia's. After the 1920 Economic Crisis and the Global Conflict, Lavrinia came under the control of a socialist totalitarian dictator, Karl Benard. Benard distanced from Sivonia, aligning with the Kalvyrian Socialist Republic, an enemy of the Sivish. The Weiburgs, who had been exiled, came back and led a coup in 1974. The Weiburgs re installed their absolute monarchy, now with full support of the people, who looked to the Weiburgs as a way to escape the dark times under Benard's government. Lavrinia then cut off relations with Sivonia in 1976, after Sivonia placed economic sanctions on the Holy Empire of Valyrium, Lavrinia's ally. Since relations have been tense, and Lavrinia has called Sivonia a "corrupt barbaric state". Sivonia denounced Lavrinia in 2009, after Lavrinians burned a Sivish flag in front of the royal palace in Lavrinia, and the king supported it. Recently, as relations become worse, Sivonia has decided to try to extend diplomatic talks with Lavrinia, hoping to open dialogue and resolve any conflicts that both nations have had in the past. Lavrinia has not made a decision on whether or not to accept Sivonia's proposal.

Biāozhì will be launching their new S3XC SUV here soon, within the China Alprus region. Looking modern and clean, it is distinctively modern, if a little generic-looking.
Powered by a 1.6-litre/118bhp 4-cylinder or a 2.0-litre/138bhp petrol engine, it will come in two trim levels, Base or XT. A diesel is in the works, we are told. We are not
sure who will supply the engines, but Biāozhì are investigating the possibility of using Diamond Star's engines.
The 2.0 XT is expected to be the biggest-seller.

All models will have a choice of front- or four-wheel-drive, although only the 1.6 petrol models will have the option of front-wheel-drive; all 2.0 cars are four-wheel-drive only.

Prices will start from 160,117 CNY, going up to

World War III: Report
Sanaa, Yemen


The US Army and the Avantian Bundewehr attacked a Yemeni air force base in Sanaa last night, seizing control of it and forcing the soldiers into surrender.

Both the US Army and Avantian Bundeswehr launched phase one of Operation Neptune. The Bundeswehr created a diversion to let the US Army inside the base to attack. The diversion was throwing three false grenades into the generals' bunker, which led to the general setting off the alarm. This meant that the Yemeni soldiers were distracted, so the US soldiers entered the base and pointed their weapons at the Yemeni soldiers, who immediately surrendered.

While on the way back to the US base with the Yemeni prisoners, the US Army were ambushed by a force of Afghan soldiers patrolling the desert roads. Team Metal of the Delta Force, who were the Zitrans responsible for carrying out the Yemeni base raid, managed to force the Afghans into surrender, and also take them prisoner. President Aster Phoenix has praised his soldiers, and said in a speech at Times Square yesterday:

"I can rely on my military to do anything, and they can get it done quick and simple. I constantly remind myself everyday, as I think of what these soldiers give up to fight for their country and give you freedom; not all superheroes wear capes. And it is a true fact. These men and women have given up their husbands, wives, children and family and friends to let you sleep peacefully, without a worry."

PLA holds massive military exercise

Image

Today, 3,400,000 soldiers from the People's Liberation Army conducts a massive military exercise near the South China Sea.

The exercise was a response to Asigna's massive military parade.

The scenario for this exercise was taking over islands and cities.

In Hainan, 3 Xian H-7 bombers, each armed with three cruise missiles, took off. All three bombers sunk nine cargo ships that were modified to look like Asigna Philippine ships.

In the air, Chengdu J-12 fighter jets shot down dozens of target drones that mimic Asigna Philippine fighter jets.

Due to hostilities from Asigna, NDAS is currently at LEVEL 3: Mobilization of troops.
The People's Liberation Army has the largest military in the region. Compare to the military of Asigna, the PLA has global projection. It would be foolish for Asigna to invade the People's Republic of Greater Socialist China, since the PLA has a massive firepower

Van Goop (a subsidiaries of President (of Atok) Investment Inc) announced today a $USD 180 million investment in a new pharmaceutical manufacturing facility, to be located in the Fogington Economical Technological Area (FETA), in the Greater Handbarrow Creek region.

"This further investment in Khantari reflects Van Goop's long-term commitment to the country where our group has been present for 10 years," said Dr Lisa Kretall, President and Chief Executive Officer of Van Goop INX, the biopharmaceutical division of Van Goop. "We are proud to be one of the first multinational companies investing in a local site focused on the manufacturing of medicines referenced in Khantari's essential drug list, and serve the country's expanding healthcare needs in the areas of diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and thyroid disorders, by bringing high-quality medicines made in Khantari to a broader population, in full alignment with the Khantarian government's goal to increase access to quality products."

The new facility will focus on the bulk production and packaging of INX-1000®, INX-C90® and INX-TT9®, Van Goop's leading brands for the treatment of diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and thyroid disorders respectively. Located in FETA's MedicoPolis, a high-tech industrial park designed to accommodate all aspects of the life science industry, the new facility will cover an area of 40,000 square meters, with a possible 20,000 square meters extension. The construction of the site is scheduled to start in 2014 and to be completed in 2016, and start commercial production in 2017. The site will be designed to comply with the highest international quality standards. The preservation of the environment will also be a critical consideration in the facility's construction, with a maximization of resource efficiency and minimized waste generation during the manufacturing process.

Mubulu War Continues

As the bombs continue to flash and bring light to the dark and humid African night. Not 2 years after the Great African war a second one would start opening old wounds between existing African nations and Trezchoix. As young men are drafted to fight terrorist militants in the north we caught up with Pieter Van Zyl a 18 year old infantry man from the Transvaal state. " Hello Pieter how old are you" The reporter asks. " im 18 about to be 19 " he replies in a thick Afrikaner accent. " were you drafted into service?" "ya but its lekker Ill give anyday to protect my home against terrs". Why are you so devout to serviceMr.Zyl ?" "well my brother fought in the Great war and our dad in the border war so I see it as defending my home against terrs also my mum was killed in the cape town bombing". " do you think this war should continue or should we go for peace " " Na we need to finish what we started the war never ended bru it just got quite for 2 years". " well" as the reporter was asking a question a rocket zoomed over the heads of the two. Immediately the young solider pulled him down and began to exchange fire with the terrorists. " Contact" the young solider yelled then the once dark and dense jungle lit up with gun fire and the once quite area should like thunder was on the ground. This is daily life for the soldiers looking for the enemy on patrols. WIth the Great African war still burned into the minds of many this war seems to be a continuation. No peace talks in sight on either side and some nations are accusing Trezchoix of war crimes popularity of the war is still high at 90%. But when will this war end who knows Channel 7 SA News.

Latin American War In Effect!

Soled and the United States has engaged in a full-scale war for Latin America. Soled hopes to use Latin America as a base for American invasion, and America fully opposes this. It has led to the deaths of thousands and destruction on large scale. Nukes have been used in Rio by the americans, which led to a U.N. ban. The ban has led to the U.N. Supporting us Soledans, and the Soviet Union has officialy entered the war on our side. We do not know when this will end, but it may be a long time until it is. Our men have managed to get control of Coastal Brazil, most of Colombia, the Mid-Americas, Southern Mexico, Chile and Bolivia. Americans have strongholds in Argentina, Northern Mexico, Peru and the Carribean. Now it is unsure wether the war will take a global scale, but we hope it will not.

Storms strike Wakia
Heavy storm and rain have plunged over Northern Wakia yet again today. The government is evacuating the area in areas with flood danger, displacing 10,000 people in the village Longodyyir. The president says that ''We will do all we can to stop the storm from taking any more damage''. There are no reported deaths as of yet. The storm could be connected with the storm in the nearby Phillipines. CItizens say that ''This is a very strong storm that i won't like getting into'' and ''Hopefully it would go to another place soon''. However, around 20 people are stuck in a remote valley and the government is trying to save them out of there. Many volunteers have comed to the areas most hit by the storm. It has reached speeds over 160 km/h, which indeed is very fast, but this was only recorded once. It is normally around 80 km/h. The storm will leave Wakia in 5 days, and continue northwards towards Siberia and possibly Japan. It was not possible to get any pictures from the event, as it would be impossible with the storm raging.

  • Pricing - Prices are about £700 - £1000 more than a VLT or Shaf on average, but value for money has been criticised.
  • Over-reliance on other manufacturers' parts and badge engineering.
  • Outdated technology (old naturally aspirated 1.3 and 1.5 petrols), although this may be justified for developing nations, in wealthier nations it is not that successful.
  • An unwieldy product range of 20-30 models, some of which overlap with one another.
  • Over-reliance on the Astholm region.

Celsan are looking for industry experts to help them. A spokesman for the firm told us they are interviewing people for this position, and have realized their flaws.

Will 2014 be a better year for Celsan than the past 5 years? Only time will tell.

I have multiple puppets here; only a select few are used to represent the continent of Astholm; others used represent Westholme, and do not artificially boost my nation's statistics.Previously i used puppets with nation names that did not identify as Astholm (e.g. Australis Australia; now all new puppets use ASTHLM, NORTHLM, SOUTHLM, WESTHLM (HLM denoting The Holmes.
NOTE: Other uses of Astholm here have a different continuity and refer to work created by the user Astholm, not the nation

BREAKING NEWS: ARCHWELDIAN MILITARY PARADE IN ARCHOIST
Image
Above^ Federation Crusaders (Archweldian Army) Military Parade

This morning at 8:00 (Eastern Standard Time) Federation Crusaders Marched through the streets of Archoist. This was a propaganda statement, due to the Greater Socialist China's and Asignia's military demonstrations, as a proud member of the World Assembly. The President insists, "We do not want war, we want peace, so we feel we need to threaten the Socialists enough to prevent war."

The press believes that Archweld is planning to side with Asignia, a member of the WA, rather that fight them. The Archweld Department of War sends this to Greater Socialist China:
Code: Select all
We believe that you are commiting an act of war. Should you attack Asignia, we will plead to the WA to ask for permission of war, and we already have our Royal Crusaders on DEFCON 3: 'Air Force ready to mobilize in 15 minutes' should any more events be held like this against the WA, we will attack you.

- John Paul Williams III, General Chief of the Federal Crusaders of Christianity, head of the Department of War

This was a shock for every Kadolhan Air Force member. It blown up when it was about to get into the high skies. The man who dies in the MiG-29 was Laris Kerons, his funeral will be held tomorrow, his body was found in the plane burned. It said that they plane had an problem in his last motor, when he taken off, it exploded, the back of the plane was on Fire. The Air Force technicians should 1st check the plane before take off, said Pilot Officer Jieras Lisaras. The President and everybody agrees with that. There is nothing more to say about this terrible accident.

we're not big on generating a lot of news. every once in a while we'll build a new rail line or something, but that's about it.
hard as it might be for some to believe, we're having too much fun to need the very poor substitute for it of excitement.
truth isn't what i say. isn't what you say. isn't what anybody says. truth is what is there, when no one is saying anything.

Thousands of pro-nudist protesters in Worthberry have attempted to storm government buildings in the capital of Lotstamp, clashing with police who fired tear gas to keep them back.

Some demonstrators tried to break through police ranks with some throwing stones and hitting officers with the signs they were carrying, as police fought back with batons, according to reports.

The demonstration was led by Worthberry's top opposition figures, who are calling for the protests to continue until Mayor Kenny Mack Metivier agrees to sign the free nudist rights.

Ship Hijacked!

Postby Mechacercradonia » Mon Dec 02, 2013 1:09 pm

The "A"lliance is maximizing its personnel as a Mechacercradonian flagship known as the MSS Qi'va has been hijacked by a rebellion which seems to have members identical to ones trying to overthrow the Brainatronnic Government. Troops at Fort 34279623 were shot down by the ship's lasers at 4 AM today. The leader of the hijackers appears to be a white mid aged adult with Muttenchops facial hair, brown eyes, a cigar in his mouth, wearing a yellow sweater, brown khaki pants, and Nike Running Shoes. If you have any information on this man, telegram the president nation, Brainatron. (or you can just simply respond to this and I'll tell him) In the meantime, all of the nation's troops and military personnel are organizing a search party for the MSS Qi'va. In addition, the de facto (substitute flagship of the entire Mechacercradonian fleet will be the MSS Ol'xa

WeresoF'd has been F'd!

Postby WeresoFd » Thu Dec 12, 2013 4:14 pm

Social Welfarists are preparing for elections after a successful coup attempt against the tyrannical and dysfunctional rule of the ruling conglomerate government of WeresoF'd Incorporated that took place last night at the WeresoF'd Federal Headquarters at 8:00 PM. Social Welfarists, diabetic citizens, and members of the health department gathered outside the building to protest the government on not responding to the increasing obesity rates. The riot police and the FATTY tatic team did everything it could to stop the riot. 52,473 people died of either gunshot wounds or tear gas. Health Inspector Johnny Unger arrested the Supreme CEO and exiled him and his members to the island of Gua, 364 miles away from the mainland's shore. The new WeresoF'd government is setting up a naval blockade to make sure the Board of Directors don't escape the island into WeresoFd's mainland. In addition, all electricity and outside resources are cut off from the island of Dua.

AISCHIA- From the capital city, the members of the Federal Council and Justice Chamber are urging the Voters' Union to use their flash election votes wisely. As the 3-year flash for some councilmen and 15-year flash for two justices is soon approaching.

Blue Alliance candidate Freu Yonyaoia commented that "... I understand the Federal Council has not vetoed a bill in quite some time, but that's not a good enough reason to not flash elect me or my other opponents. They passed two bills downvoted by the Voters' Union. Think about that for a few seconds."

To further analyze, Mulak Szerpol--a Liberal-Justice candidate for Councilman of Lisuune-- stated "Flash elections have a purpose. They're not here think about a change, they're here to make a change. Cuais Aiklot was the only councilman to attempt to veto in the new Public Bill. Even Mr. Moilschtaike voted for it! That's crazy!"

Flash election have proven positive in the past, but they're not used so often. I agree that they're for making a change, but a 1-year and 3-year flash is ridiculous. Too much is too much.Yes, the Citizens' Assembly is in charge and well should be, yet, a 2-year flash would suffice.
