Election Results

4/11/22

The Oslo Weekly reports that Norse National Party has beat the oposition in the General Election last night. They won the election with 68% of the popular vote. The second place party was the Conservatives, who got 15% of the vote. The Socialists came in third with 14% of the vote. The Greens Recieved 1% of the vote, while the Communists recieved 2%. The Norse National Party went out and congratulated the opposition after the election. The leader of the NNP, Nilis Hannsson, gave a speech soon after the election. He stated that "This is a new day for the Kalmar Republic. For years our politicians have failed us. They have lied to our people and corrupted our governement. They have ingored the very values our country has had for a millenia. However, the people noticed this and they rose up. They allowed their voices to be hear, and they spoke loud in the election.Today is a new dawn for the Republic, for the Empire. Today is they day we restore our values that we have been given by the gods. Hail Odin! Hail Thor! Hail our People! The Norse have risen, today is the day the Kalmar Republic will be restored.

A parade in Norway, celebrating the NNP's victory

Despite this many are not happy. Many people claim the NNP is a backwards facist party that will end the republic. Because of this people have taken to the streets and have rioted. Many of these rioters are members of Anarchist and Communist groups. The NNP has continued to deny claims of them being facist and they have contiued to show their support for the republic.

An example of the riots

The Emperor went out and condemned the riots calling them "Anti-Norse and Anti-Democracy." He then went out and congratulated Nilis Hannsson on his victory. This is all the news on the election so far. The NNP is set to take power on the 5th of May. We wish every citizen of the Kalmar Republic the best, and we hope to see our nation return to stablity after a turbulent election.

It Is Over

The Orthodox Christains have won. The royal family is dead and almost all former government officials have either been captured or executed. The population is celebrating in the streets with the destruction Jewish government that betrayed them with their failure to protect the nation. The shadowy figure head of the rebellion has revealed himself to named Anastasius Alanan, and has taken up the mantle of Patriarch of the Jerusalemites, becoming the new leader of the Jerusalemites. Perhaps the biggest victory for the people is the official religion of the nation being changed from Judaism to Orthodox Christianity.

The Patriarch delivered a speech in downtown Jerusalem in front of thousands of supporters who are simply exalted at the new regime.

In his speech he said, "We have won. The Jewish Monarchy which cared so little for the people has been scorched by the light of Jesus Christ, the Messiah. Finally, our nation can bathe in his eternal glory. I, the Patriarch of the Jerusalemites, will lead our people and nation into the most prosperous time we have ever seen!"

"My first goal as your leader is to establish the Orthodox religion nationwide and remove the taint that Judaism has left after so long. Next, I will further our economic ideals, furthering the system of capitalism and free market trade that has proven successful time and time again. We must improve trade and relations with nations all across the world."

"Of course, special thanks must be given to the Jerusalemite Military, which abandoned the former government when it saw the failure of the Jewish Monarchy. Without them, this war would not have been so easily won."

"I say this last portion of the speech not to the vast majority of the nation that has seen the lord's light, but to the few remaining Jewish holdouts. Abandon the religion and government that has failed you and come join the future of the Jerusalemites. You will be welcomed as brothers. If not, we have no option but to destroy you and everything you stand for. "

The speech was met with overwhelming applause by the audience. Details have also been released on the structure of this new government. At the top is obviously the Patriarch, but below him are the archbishops. They serve as regional leaders. The New Israel colony has been renamed to New Nazareth and the New Canaan colony has been renamed to Tryphena.

Office of the Prime Minister Kaiserstaat Building 350 5th Ave Caspia, Keystone Nationalist Gold Union April 14, 2022 Siege of Königgrätz The 10th, 12th and 13th armored divisions, which consist of several hundred tanks and IFVs, are close to concluding their push into Hradec Králové, Walgreens. The Vanavoians have sent human waves in the south in Triste and Slovenia, which has caused the Walgreensians to further spread out their lines. This opportunity was seized by our armored divisions and they commandeered a push into Walgreensian territory. In Hradec Králové alone, our forces of about 50 thousand men and many armored vehicles attacked the loose Walgreensian defensive organization (which we have yet to figure out the size of.) Walgreens lacked enough men to continue defense against our concentrated offensive and the mostly rural province has essentially fallen under most of our control, besides the capital city of Königgrätz. Königgrätz is a famous formerly-German city, and the Germans within the city are under oppression from the Czech majority. We will liberate the people of Königgrätz on behalf of Noxtrem. However, first, our forces must remove the Walgreensian garrison within the city. Very carefully, our forces will surround Königgrätz and cut it off from supply lines and eventually push the Walgreensian troops out. The Walgreensian garrison is encouraged to lay down arms and face justice. To safeguard the people of Königgrätz from this attack, we will be parachuting down enough food to feed several tens of thousands for a week. This food is enough to supply the population of the city but not enough surplus to feed the soldiers. If Walgreensian soldiers eat any of this food, they're stealing from their own civilians.

Subject: Successful Gains in Walgreens (top secret)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10th, 12th and 13th armored divisions have successfully taken the entire
province of Hradec Kralove in a swift strike. While we have taken an unexpected
number of casualties and equipment destruction, the Walgreensians are on the
retreat south with perhaps a higher number of losses. Our campaign to take
the entirety of the Sudetes and open the line into Czechia has proven successful
so far. While we conduct more precise strikes such as this one, the Vanavoians
and Noxtremians are throwing armies of hundreds of thousands of men to help
break the defensive line.

Strategically, we learned a few things in the attack. Our anti-67-TP maneuver
strategy seemed to net mostly positive results, and with plenty of partially or
mostly destroyed 67-TPs left behind from Walgreensian retreats, we can conduct
research on these tanks. Remains and parts of these tanks are being flown to the
mainland and sent to the Caspian Institute of Military Technology. The 67-TP is
a model to be scared of, but with research on it we can figure out better ways to
conduct battles against these machines of terror.

10A, 12A, and 13A are going to form a stronger and wider line from Olomouc to Usti
nad Labem in order to stretch out Walgreensian defenses in order to prepare a siege on
Prague. The rest of 6th Corps (9th Infantry, 9th Armored) will help back up this front
in northern Bohemia and will start picking off Czech towns in the region. Tanks are already
on their way to Ostrava and are ready to push Walgreensian forces out of the town.

The 4th Corps, which is mainly infantry divisions equipped with the newest M2A4 Bradleys,
is being moved from Dresden, Leipzig, and Berlin to the southern Noxtremian-Szczyt border
and are preparing for an offensive to Wroclaw/Katowice. The Szczytians haven't been attacked
too much by our KB forces yet, but they have been encouraged to surrender now or the small 
Polish nation will face unfortunate destruction.

Our bombing campaign based on the CVN-10 New England fighter jet fleet hasn't been as successful
as we have hoped. In April, the wing attacked military targets in Zadar, Pula, Rijeka, Sibenik, and 
Split (including key refueling ports for the Walgreens Adriatic fleets.) 4 of our fighters have been
damaged (one of them requiring re-transport to the NGU for fixing) and 2 have been shot down by
anti-aircraft and patrol jets.

Otherwise, our European campaign is ending up pretty well. It's a shame that the Walgreensians
have done this to themselves. Investors in the military industrial complex, however, are just
giddy. I wonder why.

[McFreedomstan]

The Confederacy of McFreedomstan Pacific Defense Force 05-10-22 Indian Ocean Operations After careful planning our fleets in Sumatra and Goa engaged and destroyed the majority of Lochston's military infrastructure in the southern front. The Maldives were lightly defended and easily taken by the Biak and her marines. Most Worrisian interceptors pulled out of the islands airbases to regroup with the Lochston garrison in the mainland. The tactic may be a bit cowardly but we can see why the enemy would prefer to sacrifice the islands if it means preserving a significant portion of their aerial power. Troops garrisoned in the Maldives surrendered with little resistance against our numerically superior force. Sri Lanka has not yielded as much progress due to the humid jungles and frequent flooding that make logistic routes difficult to set up. Resistance fighters and garrisoned troops aren't present in any significant numbers. Our seasoned Indonesian paratroopers should have the upper hand in the familiar conditions. Unfortunately for Command, most of the enemy's valuable military assets have been moved. Whether they were sent to Lochston or the Worrisian mainland is unknown to us. Preparations are underway to push into mainland Lochston. Do not expect a swift victory. While lightly defended compared to North American Worris, this is still a well funded and well organized garrison. Expect casualties. Expect asset loss. Coordinate with our paratroopers in Muscat, Sumatra, and Goa along with Trumplandiacian forces. Victory is damn near assured but there's no reason to expose ourselves to unnecessary risks.

Emperor Ross Peutan makes a statement about the hostile takeover of Lochston
May 23, 2022

Recently, SCO nations such as Trumplandica and Mcfreedomstan have been aggressive over the ownership of Lochston. The SCO is sending a lot of troops and military vehicles to Lochston to take it over, and they clearly are going to take it over. My board of military experts, I included, are saying that to send soldiers into Lochston is to send them into a meat grinder, and force them to their death. SCO aggression is expected, they hide behind their so called ideals and like to wage war with the other nations of the world. There are many examples of this in modern politics. One being when Panjal seemingly out of nowhere declared war on its neighboring nation, Kata. Another one is the claims against Ramoir, a peaceful country. The most recent one affecting Worris mostly is the claims against Lochston.

These claims have been made to happen since the SCO was formed. Don Cortez gave up most of the colony of Lochston to Trumplandica, fearing war. Today, however, Trumplandica is going to attack us again over such a small amount of land, it's almost sad how they do it. They are sending in a lot of troops and vehicles to a small amount of land, so small that it's almost not worth it.

We are asking for Lochstonese soldiers to pull out of Lochston for now. Near the peak of the upcoming conflicts and battles, Lochston will become Worrisian once more. For now, though, we ask the soldiers to move out for their safety. This does not mean that Lochston is going to be SCO owned forever. Lochston won't even be SCO owned by the end of the war. It will be ours. And the SCO can take their aggression, their lies, their violence, and their warmongering ways and think about their actions. They need to think that they should stop acting like the heroes of their pathetic small story.

-Emperor Ross Peutan

Defense Report from the Patriarch

Modernization Necessities of the Military

It is evident that the last government failed to protect the people of this nation. Due to this, it is necessary to begin an effort to further establish our nation as a proper military power. This effort will not affect any of the several current projects of our nation, but instead act as a supplement to said projects.

Firstly, the Jerusalemite Army is in desperate need of new vehicles. To aid this, I have authorized the production of the M1A2 Abrams main battle tank. These tanks will be continuously produced until it is deemed that our need of said tanks is no longer as desperate. Also, the size of our military must be increased. The Jerusalemite Military will begin the conscription of 325,000 new conscripts into our military.

Lastly, the conflict in which the Jewish Monarchy fought and failed in proved that conventional means of warfare are no longer enough to ensure the defense of this nation. Due to this, two new types of bombs will be produced. Firstly, a bomb known as the Mark-77 Incendiary Bomb will begin production. These bombs are used in clusters and cause widespread damage and start devastating fires. Also, chlorine gas bombs will also begin to be produced. Both types of bombs will be droppable out of the Rockwell B-1B Lancer, a supersonic bomber currently under construction.

These projects will help defend the Jerusalemite people. We will never be caught off guard as we were in the attack on Riyadh ever again.

The grand total of 297,000 soldiers will await in Moscow to prepare for a massive offensive. SOTF Command is preparing for several operations regarding Noxtrem and Vanavoy.

Office of War The Grand Empire of Walgreens 5/23/2022 At The Corner of Happy and Healthy Walgreens Begins Western Offensive *Classified* With the agreement between the government of Narnagaesia and Walgreens confirmed to transfer ownership of Narnagaesia's two northernmost provinces to Walgreens in return for a 12 month peace treaty, the Southern front of the war is now completely closed. Brigadier General Henry Gellioto is to receive the Walgreensian Star of Distinguished Military Servitude for his rapid closure of this potentially damaging front of the war. Most of the men on this front are to be rerouted to the Western front, where they will focus on efforts fighting the significantly weaker Vanavoy. With newfound allied support from USSS, Szczyt, Ubizytotska, and Sietsk in Czechia, we should undoubtedly be able to reinforce our lines and hopefully drive these scourges from our borders. While Noxtrem's aerial superiority has proven a challenge, they have had trouble breaching far into our borders due to failed advances by infantry. Our anti-aircraft systems have kept most of the civilian population safe, but attempts to stop long-range missile usage have not been as effective. As advertised, the Szczytian 67-TP Heavy Tank has been wildly effective against the Kaiserbund's preferred M1 Abrams. Its auto cannon has proven to be a fair counter to the LAVs which Noxtrem and the NGU have attempted to put to use, for unknown reasons. We expect this is due to a massive shortage of heavy armor, but intelligence reports cannot confirm this. Full scale coastal bombardment of Italy via our Adriatic and Mediterranean fleets. This should hopefully demoralize the poorly equipped Vanavoian armed forces, giving us more leverage in the region. We will not target civilian populations, only strategic military targets and bases. Even in times of war, Stefano Pessina will not stoop to the lowly level of our enemy. Official Report, Walgreens Office of War
