Following the Razonican threat for war against Nerodanus for revoking the offer given from the Government due to Razonica accepting a separate deal, and then ignoring the contents of the offer the government moved the population into Readiness State 2; Preparation for Invasion from a Foreign Power. Curfew has been enacted requiring everyone to be either home or in a hotel from sunset to sunrise. Jets have began airborne patrols while Armored and Infantry divisions patrol the border of Nerodanus on the ground.

Neroian forces in Vacroaye have been ordered into High Alert too, with protection and/or evacuation of Civilians to be placed as the highest priority should any fighting breakout. Social Media has shown a large support for Nerodanus and it's allies, with the hastag #GetSumRaz! becoming popular overnight. Many people have gone to the capital to protest the Razonican militancy, and clear objective to Annex Vacroaye itself by moving in another 40,000 troops without any evidence for their claim of a Neroian attempt to annex the nation.

Recruitment offices have had to set up lines outside, as volunteers who are unable to join the regular army swell for non-combat jobs to free up more soldiers. Several announcements from the Councils have requested that people instead opt for a mailing to be recruited into Non-Combatant roles, with may offices closing down to push others to choose that option.

The NNN was able to ask a question to the Premier on his stance to which he responded "Should Razonica be ready to handle this peacefully, we will negotiate. We offered it once, and they accepted it on their terms without negotiation. Should Razonica attack us, we will fight them in the Air, we will fight them at Sea. We will fight them on Land, from the farms, to the suburbs and cities. We will defend ourselves from such an aggressor to the end, and we will never surrender. No parent wants to send their children to war. But if we are to continue as a people then we must be ready to protect ourselves." Although other questions were asked the Premier was hurried off by his escorts to a meeting with the Council.

New Scotland National News

Today New Scotland was shocked to hear that Imperial President George has announced the implementation of “Siege Protocol” for the first time since the nation’s inception. In his speech announcing the implementation His Honorableness stated that the reason for activating Siege Protocol was due to the rising tensions across Elvayra. He Cited the recent military drills in Germeria and Nerodanus recent implementation of curfew. In his speech His Honorableness said, “People of New Scotland. I must regret to inform you that I am ordering the activation of our Siege Protocol. In these dark and dangerous times, we must be ready to defend our nation at any and all costs… While we may hope and push for a peaceful resolution to the situation in Vacroaye we must, nevertheless, be prepared for the worst.” With the activation of Siege Protocol all New Scottish citizens currently living or working abroad are recalled home. Conscription for all men ages 18-35 has been implemented. Furthermore, the government is offering reduced sentences to prisoners who volunteer to work in factories deemed “strategically important” or to aid in the construction of defenses across the nation. Students in high school and university are also offered such programs. All homeless and unemployed citizens are given living space and jobs on farms across the country. All military units are being recalled in order to bolster the defense. All merchant and civilian ships, planes, and vehicles are likewise being recalled and refitted for combat. Half of all food produced in New Scotland is to be stored and a gas rationing is to be implemented. Lastly all government officials are to be moved into classified underground shelters for the duration of the siege protocol. Imperial President George has issued one exception to the protocol, demanding that any diplomats in foreign countries move to the nearest embassy where the New Scottish Military will be supplying them with defensive materials in the event of an attack on the embassies.

Sultan Ayar Entir Orders the Removal of All Foreign Troops

While it appeared the occupation of Vacroaye was coming to an end, the hostility caused by Nerodanus has only further increased tensions. Sultan Ayar gave a speech this morning regarding the current situation.

I was promised the removal of Razonica's occupation and expected Nerodanus to honor their deal as well. Razonica was promised their military bases and they shall receive them. They have already honored their deal yet it appears Maxim Kuznetsov has gone back on his word. I will not let another war happen in Vacroaye over the imperialistic ideals of warmongers. Nerodanus will remove their troops as while they were appreciated before they are now unwelcome. I will allow Razonica to keep their troops until Nerodanus has removed their forces. I also urge any Vacroayeans enlisted in the Neroian army to send leave. The confilct in Vacroaye will be finished once it's foreign occupation ends.

MARTIAL LAW ENACTED IN DRAKODIA AS ULTRANATIONALIST GROUP LEADING ILLEGAL FOREIGN TREATY ARRESTED

May 19th, 2017
Authored by Zachariah Brustkov

Just earlier today the city of Drakodia had been placed under Martial Law and checkpoints set up to prevent escape of Ultranationalists attempting to illegally negotiate a treaty over the crisis in Vacroaye. The Councilmen involved have yet to be identified to the public but are known to involve at least twenty politicians. Several hours after Martial Law began the Premier made a public broadcast from within the Capital.

"My fellow Neroians. Today a plot to ignore the National Sovereignty of Vacroaye in order to secure not only un-needed, but through undemocratic methods, Military Bases within the Nation. I have expressed before my desire to see Vacroaye free of all foreign troops occupying the nation. With this most recent event I have published Executive Order 28. All soldiers within Vacroaye are to be evacuated, with some equipment handed over to the Renovans for storage in their vault. The final troops are expected to be out within a few short days, and home within a week. For the next two weeks the Military will remain on High Alert, while we watch for cooling political conditions. And to the nearly one thousand of three Vacroayans who have requested to leave, paperwork will be available shortly and flights home will be arranged."

The Premier also commented on canceling all flights to and from Razonica, along with the relocation of Neroian owned relics to a warehouse for the time beign.

The Federal Republic addresses EAC
Calls for removal of Empress Faenia from Secretary General
04/29/2017 - Tyderius, Futrellia
Elvarya

---

TYDERIUS - As tensions across Elvarya continue to rise as the Vacroayean conflict continue to escalate, the nations of Nerodanus, Germeria, Renova, and Razonica have prepared their militaries for war. The Elvaryan Allied Coalition has remained torn as Nova Zealand and Adfrana have declared neutrality and New Scotland has departed the Crimson Union to begin work on a new union. Only moments ago, the President has ordered all Federal forces put on high alert to stand down and return to stations, signalling that the Federal Republic will not participate in Razonica's refusal to leave Vacroaye.

During a special Coalition-wide address, President Underwood, also Chairman of the EAC, has called for the removal of Empress Faenia as Secretary General of the Coalition unless Razonican troops leave Vacroaye.

"As the Coalition and Union continue to escalate the conflict, i cannot ignore the facts. This conflict is beginning to set the stage for a global war. This will not be a simple skirmish between two nations that will resolve itself within the coming months. This will lead to a second world war, and it will be more devastating than the last. Millions will die, trillions of dollars worth of infrastructure will burn, and the smoke will blot out the sun. In good conscience, i cannot ask the Futrellian people to give their sons and daughters up for this when we are still healing.
It has been made aware to me, that Razonica is bringing the EAC to it's knees. Nova Zealand and Adfrana made the decision to stay neutral because they didn't want their children to die for a needless cause, for a Country that puts pride ahead of world peace. If Empress Faenia wants to war with Nerodanus, Germeria, Vacroaye, and the Crimson Union, may they war. But the war will not come to our shores or affect our Coalition. I address Empress Westbrook and Queen Harrington and wish to enact an Act that will be the first in the Elvaryan Allied Coalition's history. To forcefully remove Empress Faenia as Secretary General of the EAC if she does not stand down, and remove troops from Vacroaye immediately. The Razonicans still have a taste for war, they shall have it. But the EAC will take no part in it. Thank you, and God bless Elvarya.

There has been no word from the governments of Nova Zealand or Adfrana, but we can expect that this will apply pressure to Razonican to end this occupation and move on from the past.

Confirmation of Tensions, New Naval Base and Secret Project cancelled

Earlier today, Lucius Aper had spoken to the press regarding such tension in Elvarya, he responded with that we'll only join war when our allies in the Crimson Union is attacked. "It's highly unlikely that Razonica or anyone else will attack The Crimson Union over Vacroaye, but I do condemn the acts of leaving military in another country over a war years ago. If war happens, we'll only retaliate if our allies are attacked, other than that, we'll not join an offensive against our enemies if the Union isn't attacked prior of the offensive". During the speech he also mentioned that Plyric has enough funding for the Naval Yard for Lasow, which we needed one for the longest time, however we'll miss the competition that Elvarya is going to have, in order to keep production fast enough to make the deadline the Naval Yard needs to be made. In other news, the military secret project Project ARKUS had been cancelled due to many failures during experimentations, the Head of Science Production has stated that we may need funding from other nations before we can work on anything that experimental as ARKUS. Another project by the name of Goliath has started, which may have to do with a vehicle or possible something similar to ARKUS, but less experimental, hopefully.

Riots broke out across the duchy of Baiern this weekend as continued quarantine and medical efforts fail to solve the outbreak of rabies in the duchy. The capital of Baiern, the city of München, suffered the worst of the riots as quarantine measures were enacted in preparation of the disease heading to the city, in spite of continued assurances by the mayor of Augsburg that the outbreak was being held in check at Walden. Riot police were deployed alongside the Special Operations Group 07 as the riots were contained in the Old Quarter district of the city. SOG 07 is a group under the authority of the Special Operations Division of the GAC, primarily deployed for urban civil unrest and riots, with some of their more famous deployments being the riots of Hollande in '76 and the Beerhall Putsch in '32.

In related news, the Imperial Secretary of War, Werner von Reichstadt, has announced that the terrorist group L'épée d'or has officially claimed responsibility for the plague in Walden and has vowed to carry out similar attacks in other Germerian cities until all Germerian nobles and officials renounce their support of a two state solution. Von Reichstadt says that the administration is carrying out contingency plans against L'épée d'or and that the first of many attacks will be carried out this week. He also says that they are contacting allies and fellow counter-terrorist groups in other nations for assistance in dealing with L'épée d'or. The location of the Duke Maximillian is still unknown.

In unrelated news, the bi-annual Imperial Diet is to occur in the next two weeks, at the Free Imperial City of Nürnberg. As is required by the Golden Bull, the Emperor will preside over the Diet and ensure an amicable and agreeable resolution will occur. Many political scientists and analysts believe the main topic will be over Quarantine measures and the international functions of the Emperor.

[Razonica]

Troops Heading Home
Crown News

Razoncian officials have answered Futrellia's accusation that Razonican troops were remaining in Vacroaye by defending their right to have military bases. The official government of Vacroaye, supported by Nerodanus and several other Crimson Union members, gave Razonica the right to have military bases in their nation. These four bases will be manned by garrisons of thousand five hundred men each. Before the reunification of Vacroaye, under the treaty they signed, Razonica had full legal right to march troops within their borders.

The reason why Razonica has requested these bases is because of that fact that many Razonicans are wary of Vacroaye. Having these bases will allow some measure of warning if for whatever reason Vacroaye where to lash out against the Empire again. These bases will also benefit the locals by providing jobs as translators and also as sanitation workers, construction workers, and also as security forces that can respond to crimes around the bases, since Razonicans couldn't arrest Vacroayens unless they forcefully entered the base.

Hancock announced that the New Scottish military (NSM) will be creating a Chemical and Biological weapons defense department. This department will focus on protecting against possible chemical and biological agents. This is in a response to the plague in Germeria over fears that it was an intentional weapons test. Imperial President George however condemns the sentiment arguing that Germania would not test weapons on it's own populace. His Honorableness also offers to send agents from the New Scottish Agency for Disease Control (NSADC) to aid Germeria in combating their plague.

DEL REKORSTA - Only four days after their initial hospitalization, one of the two nurses infected with GR83 has died. Placed under guard by officers of the DRPD, Maisey Kyle, a registered Nurse at the Del Rekorsta Medical Center succumbed to the high fever accompanying some other nasty side effects of the highly advanced rabies strain. It is unknown how two nurses became infected with the disease as no hospital in the nation has reported appearances of the GR83 virus. Jacob Gogdin, the other nurse infected with GR83 is showing no improvement and continues to show higher signs of aggression. The Federal Disease Control Department has dispatched a quarantine team to isolate the room within DRMC and to ensure no further infections occur.

UPDATE
Only minutes after the publishing of this news article, we have been informed that a Del Rekorsta Police officer guarding the room is showing early signs of the GR83 virus. His name, rank, and how he contracted the virus is being blocked by both the FDCD and the DRPD until further testing can be completed by doctors within the Del Rekorsta Medical Center. We will continue to cover this story as more details become available.

Sultan Ayar Announces Reconstruction of Vacroaye

As both Nerodanus and Razonica have removed their troops (excluding the one's in military bases) Sultan Ayar has announced for the rebuilding of Vacroaye. Sultan Ayar is seeking to help rebuild rural Vacroaye areas as they were heavily hit with Vacroaye's recent drought, the worst seen in years. Sultan Ayar hopes this will bring Vacroayean farmers back to their farms as many have left their farms for cities where Razonican supplies were distributed in much greater amounts. Sultan Ayar has also announced boosts to the education and healthcare budget to further improve the literacy rate in Vacroaye and the well being of all Vacroayeans. Finally Sultan Ayar has announced the construction of the Women's Assistance Program or WAP for short and the ability for wives to divorce their husband. The WAP is designed to protect Vacroayean women from abuse from their husbands or fathers. A high amount of Vacroayean women are abused in Vacroaye, some resulting in their deaths which go largely unnoticed. Women are now able to divorce their husband under the circumstances that she is abused by him. The WAP has however been largely criticized by several Emir's in the Royal and Common council due to it giving women too much power. Sultan Ayar has assured that he will see Vacroaye return to it's former glory.

Suspected Carrier of a GR-83 is captured

Earlier today in Grumhelwale International Airport, during a medical screening, a person who was suspected to carry a trace of the disease that is currently in Germeria, called GR-83 which is a type of rabies that caused the death of two nurse in Del Rekorsta and had hundreds or even thousands infected. This suspect was about to exit the airport after trying to skip other medical procedures, when two medical staff stopped the man, who did appear that he did come from Germeria, but considers himself as a refugee. He was apprehended later by police officers after he tried to escape the airport before the other medical staff arrived. "We hate to waste our resources on someone who comes to our country and seek refugee only to compromise the other people who came here seeking refugee from other reasons, we just can't have this man freely roaming in the capital only to get Lucius, Gallus or really anyone else sick from this strand of rabies. But as he is now under our control, we'll have the medical staff take some samples from this man, who does have documentation of full name, origins, and date of birth, but will only be sent to Germeria if they request this man back or at least just documentation."(Excerpt from Julia Aper, Head of the Science and Medical Dept.) The man, whose information is kept by medical staff of Plyric is being kept at a secured hospital and is being questioned as we speak, more information will be added once we may have a recording or some extra info to add later.

Call for Unionization

A recent poll in New Jan Mayan showed that many Jan Mayanians are in favour of joining the Crimson Union. This trend has been generally attributed to the rise of tensions between the government and social activists. One protestor said while straightening his Tronald Drump hat, "This country has great stuff, the best stuff in fact. We should join the Union so that other countries can get more stuff". Many other people want to join the region for the safety and economic benefits of a large alliance. Due to the large numbers of unionization supporters, the government has agreed to open up negotiations with Jan Mayan's ally, Nerodanus.

The Royal Empire suspends it's membership in the Elvaryan Allied Coalition

---

Los Maria, Nova Zealand- Moments ago Prime Minister Katherine Marshal has announced that the Royal Empire, would be official suspending it's membership in the Elvaryan Allied Coalition until further notice. The Royal Empire's request to suspend it's membership within EAC has yet to gain a official response, but if accepted by the senior leadership will cut the organization down to three full members. Citizens from around the Empire has gathered to voice their support of their prime minister's announcement, believing the Elvaryan Allied Coalition has strife from it's official purpose. Queen Stephanie Westbrook has publicly voiced her support of a new international organization, currently in the works by New Scotland called the League of Neutral Nations also known by it's short name LNN. The government has released a official press statement by Prime Minister Marshal, where she addresses her concerns and opinions on the Elvaryan Allied Coalition.

"My fellow countrymen and women I am so honored that you can be with me, on this terrible day many of you are aware that the Royal Empire has requested the EAC to suspend our membership. I am sure some of you have an issue with my public announcement or the suspension, but our government has truly believe the organization to value pride over peace within the region. Queen Westbrook and I are not sure who to believe anymore, or can we even trust the word of EAC's senior leadership. we have been in talks with New Scotland about the possibility of joining, their new organization the League of Neutral Nations. My latest communication with President Underwood proves that the EAC leadership continues to push towards annexation, rather then peace within our beloved region of Elvarya.

I understand most of you will be looking to tear or even pick apart my words, however first let me tell you how I reached my conclusion on the matter of annexation. First of all Razonican troops continue to remain in Vacroaye despite no external threats, even being allowed to maintain bases the Razonican Empire should have been the bigger nation and withdraw. Hang on there is more to this theory as well my fellow countrymen, and women the Razonican Empire forbids the selling of military equipment to Vacroaye unless it's from Razonica or Futrellia. This tells me right here that even Razonica don't trust it's own allies, except that of the Futrellian Federal Republic a nation who has been wishy washy since the start of the crisis. We can not speak for our friends in the Queendom of Adfrana but our people grow tired, of the stories feed to us by EAC senior leadership especially President Jason Underwood.

We are more then willing to listen and work with our fellow Elvaryan heads of states, but first they must show us that they are willing to work with the Royal Empire. The Royal Empire will continue to maintain diplomatic relations with the Federal Republic of Futrellia, and the Queendom of Adfrana but we refuse to be part of an alliance that values pride over peace. Now I need to address individual leaders of our former EAC allies, so please bear with me on this part since each will have the own lines in the following quote. The order we be as follow Queen Alyssa, Empress Faenia, and then President Jason Underwood base on the level of the Royal Empire's respect.

Queen Alyssa: Your Majesty we are deeply honored by your commitment to peace within Elvarya, as a international community not to mention Adfrana's willingness to follow our neutrality declaration. I know it must have been hard to side against the Federal Republic of Futrellia, because I am sure they are the Queendom's biggest ally in the world. We here in the Royal Empire hope one day you would be proud call us an ally as well Your Highness, it would be a pleasure to work with Adfrana in the future.

Empress Faenia: Your Highness I can not even find the words to discribe you right now, it is a shame that one such as yourself would lower themselves to that of their former enemy. Empress Faenia you alone have the power to change the world for the better Your Majesty, please don't be the outcast of Elvarya by continuing to occupy Vacroaye. You are given the Crimson Union exactly what they want a regional war don't be like them, be above them and show the international community the true power of a female head of state.

President Jason Underwood: President Underwood now I can personally see why you are having so much trouble, within your own country my friend you are just too wishy washy about your choices. First you support the Razonican occupation by vowing the support of the Elvaryan Allied Coalition, then you call for the replacement of Empress Faenia as General Secretary. Now Mr. President you tell me through email conversation, that you support the occupation of Vacroaye by the Razonican Empire. Please tell me which one is it Mr. President, do you support it or are you against it? Because in all honestly the people of the Royal Empire has had a enough of your wishy washy attitude and we want a answer.

I have spoken my peace about the current problem with the Elvaryan Allied Coalition, and the continue occupation of Vacroaye by the Razonican Empire. I understand that some of these leaders will accuse me of siding with the Crimson Union, but I want to make one thing stright the Royal Empire in no way is siding with anyone in this matter. We have been neutral from the start and we will continue to be as long as this problem continues, because we are not willing to send our sons and daughters to dye for a nation valuing pride over peace."

It is clear from reading over this statement that Prime Minister Katherine Marshal has had enough, of all the continue lies coming from Elvaryan Allied Coalition senior leadership. Some citizens still believe that the Royal Empire has a chance to change Elvarya for the best, but Prime Minister Marshal made it clear that was not her government's aim.

International Community Cannot Tell the Different Between Razonica and the EAC

The Obligator

The actions of the Razonican Empire these passed weeks have been labelled as those of the Elvaryan Allied Coalition. The peope who made this accusation, however, fail to realize that Empress Faenia never used EAC resources or called for EAC members to vote on any bills or laws. In fact, no EAC officials even officially weighted in on the issue. The reason being, the EAC is a separate entity entirely. It was suppose to include every single nation in Elvarya and make international law that all nations would follow. Legally, the EAC could be enforcing the terms that Vacroaye willingly signed when it surrendered to Razonican, Adfrana, and to Futrellia. This did not happen however. And now, the empress has announced that Razonica will be leaving the EAC and will not be rejoining any organization that strives for international law. She has given a full speech to support her reasoning.

Dear people of Elvarya, I am completely shocked at the lack of justice in our world. The Razonican Empire, the empire that fought in self-defense, has been made into a villain. Our empire had every legal right to have troops in Vacroaye. When they surrendered to us, they gave us the right to control their lands for twenty-five years. Millions of people died in the Avarice War. Not to mention the 538,178 Razonicans who paid the ultimate price.

What shocks me most is the fact that we are being told we cannot protect our empire. For centuries, Vacroaye has been our enemy. And just five years ago, they nearly crippled our government. They attacked our people unprovoked. My soldiers were slaughtered defending our nation. My empire took prisoners and not only followed the Nightdel Convention but also gave medical treatment to men who had just shot our own. My people, when taken prisoner, were tortured and raped.

So, yes, there is a reason why I do not trust Vacroaye. They attacked my nation without reason and treated my people inhumanly. For some reason, the world thinks I'm suppose to let my enemy act the same as they did before. No. That will not happen. The government of Nova Zealand believes that I am unreasonable. No, you are. I will not bow to you. I want to watch my enemy, so I will not be removing the military bases I have legal right to keep I am pleased that the new sultan has created a new program for women but I don't really think enough is being done. I am still wary of their culture, that they might just attack my people again. For no reason. That mentality must be changed. I don't care what the world thinks. My people's safety is my top priority, I'm not giving up their defense in order to be "fair" to Vacroaye. They weren't fair to my people. They made hundreds of widows and widowers. They ripped children from their parents. They destroyed the lives of those they tormented in their prisons.

To make matters worse, many nations supported Nerodanus over Razonica. Let's not forget the fact that Nerodanus, by supporting Vacroaye, endorses their past brutal actions. And let's also not forget that the Razonican Empire never raised any more troops or prepared for war like Nerodanus did. While they demanded that we accept their ultimatum, we tried to negotiate. We were reasonable, and yet we were made into monsters. We were made into warhawks when we did not spend a single Colia more on our defense.

To reflect my displeasure with those who have criticized my empire without merit, I am withdrawing from the Elvaryan Allied Coalition. I will not be bound by international laws if foreign nations refuse to even acknowledge them. The EAC was built with the idea that all nations were automatic members. They could propose laws or voice concerns if they had any. Instead, they villianized my nation. My people will not bare this insult. Therefore, my empire will not help create world peace any longer. We have seen the truth, that Elvarya wishes for our empire to crumble. They want to reward the people who killed, raped, and beat Razonicans who were defending the innocent. I want no part of your so-called justice. From now on, Razonica stands for Razonica. We will defend our Lord and Lady, our borders, our people, and our ideals. I am done with world leaders thinking they are entitled to order my empire. If they wish to change Razonica, they'll have to meet with me and talk like civilized people and not wave around their guns and threats. I will not answer to barbarian actions.

This morning the last of the nineteen total Councilmen who committed high treason against Nerodanus was captured following a nearly one hour gun fight at the entrance to the Drakodian Sewers where he had planned to escape. The nineteen Councilmen have been stripped of rank and their respective states notified of an election date to replace them. Investigation has been launched into the matter to ensure that the treason does not have deeper roots into any Neroian programs.

Meanwhile people get ready to Celebrate the establishment of the Soviet government this June 5th, after a lengthy celebration on the 20th of May for the end of the Civil War that plagued the Nation. The Premier Maxim Kuznetsov is expected to make an appearance at the Drakodian Festival as he has for the past few years.

NPSA INVITES EAC, CU, AND NEW SCOTLAND TO THE NSS

June 11, 2017
Authored by Zachariah Brustkov


Acting with full permission from the Neroian Councils and the Premier, The NSPA (Neroian Peoples Space Agency) has formally invited the remaining two nations of the Elvarya Allied Coalition, the fellow members of the Crimson Union, and New Scotland to send astronauts to the Neroian Space Station currently in orbit either on their own rockets or taking trips with the Neroian rockets. Food, Water, and extra Fuel costs will need to be paid for by the guest nations for their participant, and research conducted will need to be passed by the NPSA.

However that last part can change. The NSPA has also mentioned that Negotiation between the Workers Council and the foreign governments for building seperate modules to expand the station are an option, and would turn the Neroian Space Station into an Allied International Space Station, with sections being developed by other nations, yet open to all. However such a change would be radical and an international committee created to handle such a change.

Martial Law Declared in Takot state after sixty-five bodies are found in abandoned bus

A faction of M32 drug cartel used the bodies of their victims to deliver a message to authorities and their rivals in a suburb of this metropolitan area.

The government in the Matari capital of Pator has been outraged by violence in the northern Nefantor tribe lands. The agricultural region has seen an economic boom, but has been troubled by drug cartels that moved into the area during the First Dark Years in the 1980s. The cartels have made millions of duos smuggling narcotics and weaponry into neighboring Razonica, and become increasingly violent in recent years. Experts on the drug trade point to the death of international drug kingpin Winnie Mandsoa in 2015 as the source of recent instability, as infighting and opportunistic rivals have led to a full-scale drug war.

The cartels have proven to be a significant flashpoint in Razonican-Matari relations, as widespread corruption and resistance by Nefantor leaders in the north have crippled Matari efforts to fight the cartels. The nationalist MD party swept the ballot box this year, unseating the incumbent PG party for the first time in thirty years following revelations that the cartels in the north had been bribing PG party leaders for decades. Kong (King) Piye IV has given Prime Minister Lalou Ofego control of the Republic Ground Force and the authority to enact martial law in the Nefantor tribe lands of Takot and Amold. While the move has sparked concern that the King and Parliament have effectively granted the Prime Minister, a Brutor, dictatorial powers in Nefantor lands, polls show that majority of the country is in strong support of the Prime Minister. In a major win for the Prime Minister, Nefantor Elders have also pledged their support to the decision, citing a 2016 report that showed the local officials were too corrupt and under-resourced to continue fighting the cartels.

The total dead is on track this year to hit 22,000 civilians, over half of which are members of the Nefantor tribe.
