The Organa Twins

The Organa Twins, James and Jaiden, 13, have publicly shared a video on YouTube explaining that they are alive and well in the Galapagos. The video goes viral among Mereticans that support the Free States and some say that they have found the family that will restore the old monarchy of Meretica.

"Our line is alive; we survived the purge," James, the elder twin, said in the video. "We wish to reclaim our home in Almaton and restore the old Meretica that was kind, patient, and loving. The Dragonheart Order slaughtered hundreds of our family members. That is not the Meretica that I know. When it comes to the unity of Meretica, those days seem distant from our own. A malign force seems at work in our common life that turns every disagreement into an argument, and every argument into a clash of cultures. So much of our politics has become a naked appeal to anger, fear, and resentment. That leaves us worried about our nation and our future together. I come without explanations or solutions. I can only tell you what I have seen. On Meretica's days of trial and grief, I saw millions of people instinctively grab for a neighbor's hand and rally to the cause of one another. That is the Meretica I know. At a time when bigotry might have flowed freely, I saw Mereticans reject prejudice and embrace people of other ethnicities, religions, and creeds. That is the nation I know. At a time when nativism could have stirred hatred and violence against people perceived as outsiders, I saw Mereticans reaffirm their welcome to immigrants and refugees. That is the nation I know. At a time when some viewed the rising generation as individualistic and decadent, I saw young people embrace an ethic of service and rise to selfless action. That is the nation I know. This is not mere nostalgia; it is the truest version of ourselves. It is what we have been -- and what we can be again."

The NSH a well-known Far-Right paramilitary within Oceania offered a deal with the GLA to get the NSH a damaged or undamaged Knightmare lite so they can hand it over to the WOSDRT and they make the equipment and weapons to deal with them and in return, they will get export versions of the A-X4 and equipment and the advisors to train their troops to be able to pilot them and infantry weapons for their soldiers to deal SM knightmare lites.

After spotting a group of 4 men, the Knightmare Lite did not follow them. Instead, the Knightmare Lite used its long distance, non-lethal weapons to shoot at the men from a distance. The pilot then proceeded to alert the rest of the pilots of the Knightmare Lites of the possibility of an ambush.

Freedom Comes at a Cost - November 16th, 2035

White Peace Signed with Imperials
By Benny Fishall
Earlier today, the combatants on the Dragonheart War signed a white peace treaty, ending a short war that resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, civilians, and children. The war, albeit short, is one of the bloodiest in Meretican history, and its causes are slowly becoming clearer.

We have limited facts regarding the war, but we can say with some certainty that the Dragonheart Order manipulated the world and orchestrated this bloody conflict from beginning to end. The war did not begin with Free Staters opposing the Empire, but with the Confederacy opposing the Old Senate. Maria Wilmington, using the legacy of presidents that it has been revealed were members of the Order, convinced Mereticans that they had to oppose the goals of the Confederacy for the good of democracy. Then, she led millions of people to believe that it was democratic to shrink the Old Senate and form the Empire, an oligarchy led by herself. Now, we stand defeated in the Dragonheart War, having failed our forefathers and the Dragonheart Family. Queen Sinestra, had she lived, would be heartbroken. King Michael the First, who founded our nation over 3,000 years ago, would have fallen to his knees and wondered what had become of the small island nation that he had led against pirates and foreign tribes.

This war has exposed our weaknesses. It has exposed the susceptibility of the human mind to manipulation. It has exposed that despite our cultural upbringing to place faith in all that is good, good does not always triumph over evil. It has exposed that sometimes lies can trump truth, especially when so many don't believe the truth. It has shown us that Meretica can be progressive and backward-looking at the same time. It has shown that Mereticans are more populist, conspiratorial, and anti-establishment than we thought. It has shown that nothing is inviolable, including patriotism. We have watched as the Meretica that we long to see again has kept the same allies that we have long looked to, as well as the new ones that we've just started looking too. And worst of all, we have learned that Mereticans are willing to ignore or condone violations of democratic norms.

There is a lot that we can make of this, good and bad. Much of it looks bad on the surface. But with death comes new life; with grief, new hope. We now have a chance to rebuild Meretica, our freedom-loving Meretica, in a new light that our ancestors would be proud of. This is our chance to make a difference, to form a newer, better world. This is our time to begin charting a new path into the future.

Organas to Be Brought to Almaton
By Saul E. Terry
Per the newly drafted Constitution of the Free States of Meretica, the Royal Family and Nobles Houses shall be reestablished with purely ceremonial and theoretical power. Already, many of the few nobles that remain have returned to Almaton to reclaim their old titles and search for old heirlooms that may have survived the Dragonheart War.

Meanwhile, the New Senate has selected the Organa Family as the successors to the Dragonhearts for the Meretican throne. James Organa, 13, shall be crowned on New Year's Day as King James, First of the Organa Line. Meanwhile, his twin sister Jaiden shall return to schooling. She has chosen to attend public school in Athens rather than live in Almaton with her brother.

NSH sent another message that they would swap the export models for the military-grade versions that Oceania use in their Mech Corp they told them that difference between the Export model and Oceanian Model is that the Export model uses different material for the chassis and armor and weapons are modified to have certain features removed but on the Oceanian Model that is used in the Oceania Mech Corp the Chasis is made with the TU-556-2 an indestructible metal that is used in other equipment and the armor is made of Uranium and TU-556-2 composite armor they also swapped the export model weapons with the Oceanian versions which has ammo fabricator attached and will equip some with the powerful 40mm Scrapper Rifle and LSG-3 Laser Rifle

GLA soldiers decided to use a different strategy as in hit and run and so they begin ambushing mechs alone and using snipers to take out the pilots before then giving the suits to Great Oceania for reconstruction. Meanwhile more violent uprisings happen against the imperial menace and the slogan “We will never be slaves” is used as a battlecry against the imperial oppressors.

In Toronto , Radovan Karadžić MP for the Serb Minority issued a statement about the ongoing civil war in Tzatzikistan

This, what you are doing, is not good. This is the path that you want to take Tzatzikistan on, the same highway of hell and death that Lushansk and Rhodesia went on. Don't think that you won't take Tzatzikistan into hell, and the Tzatzikistanis maybe into extinction. Because the
Tzatzikistanis cannot defend themselves if there is war here.
(Note : the usage of the word you in his speech is referring to PM George Antonopolis)

Civilians are fed up with the police brutality and occupation in general so with weapons from the GLA they fight back against the police gunning them down whenever possible and stealing their weapons. The civilian populace also carries out mass ethnic cleansing against tourists and immigrants. Meanwhile the GLA using thier underground bunkers wages a Guerrilla against the slavers (you claim your not when you are literally using force to silence opposition and are desperately trying to turn the Galapagos into some paradise despite the people hating you and not wanting it). GLA now are reduced to carrying our high scale assassinations against anti-independence candidates (that is literally what they are at this point).

In response to the “ethnic cleansing” being done by the GLA, Gov. Edwards enacts a tourism policy that protects tourists, and continues enforcing the hard labor policy. It is announced that Gov. Edwards would soon leave the Galapagos as Gov. Andrews is appointed to his position, and Gov. Edwards has more pressing matters to attend to.

However, while Gov. Edwards was pro-democracy and pro-jobs while supporting the Liberal Capitalists, Gov. Andrews is Said to be more ruthless and skilled in Military tactics due to his prior 15 years of total military service, with 5 of those years spent in the Marajarbian Navy.

Sealandian tourists and immigrants are given a free license to arms, just in case, while the IGRB consider arming themselves, just in case, though they decide against it. The IGRB are overstretched yet again, and seek partnership from the PLP and the Dove Party in peacefully diffusing the crisis. The PLP respond by demanding to the Coalition that either another election will happen or they will resign from parliament. Problem with resigning is that this could make the more radical members become less democratic, and join the GLA, and the PLP are hoping that the Coalition will not risk this. It is unclear if the PLP are actually going to resign if the Coalition say no, though Little Brother gets them to publicly make preparations to resign, even if they are not going to do so. The hard labour policy is becoming increasingly ridiculed by the Sealandian press, and the PLP and IGRB create their own separate newspapers to broadcast their message of peace and prosperity in the Galapagos.

[Meretica]

Several new political organizations (not parties, as Parliament is forcibly non-aligned with any particular ideology) are forming in the Free States.

The first of these, the Socialist Internationale, is attended to the needs of workers and the poor. They are largely led by the mayor of Athens, Monsieur* Geoffrey Dean. Dean, 29, is highly supportive of setting up workshops to help support unemployed people. Many see him as male by virtue of virility but female by divine intuition. He believes that libertarian democratic socialism is the way forward and has the popular support of many workers and poor people in the Free States.

Secondly, the Federalist Movement has arisen from the remaining shards of the old Federalist Party. Based around Davisism*, the Federalist Movement is largely led by Monsieur Francis DuBois and his wife, Emilie. They hope to rebuild the old economically liberal, socially center-right paradise that Meretica worked as for years.

*French is slowly coming back into use for titles, positions, and various names in the Free States.
**Named, of course, for former Meretican Roy Davis.

The PLP say, 'Look at the state of the country that you have failed to run! An election is necessary if you don't want to be hung from your feet by terrorists,' before storming out. It appears that the PLP were true to their word. The party members do remain connected, in case the Coalition see sense, and their newspapers confirm that they will re-emerge if the Coalition decides to hold an election, along with the Dove Party, though some abandon the party in favour of the GLA, which the PLP are trying to prevent. Sealand officially gives up on the Galapagos, leaving the public to watch nervously as guerilla warfare and terrorism grip the Galapagos.

Breaking News!:

Today, the nations of Southwest Marajarbia, Northwest Marajarbia, Northeast Marajarbia, Northern Marajarbia, Western Marajarbia, Eastern Marajarbia, and even Southern Marajarbia have remerged into the Marajarbian Federation and invited Southeast Marajarbia to merge as well into the second Marajarbian Federation.

The First Marajarbian Federation, originally a part of the Great Asian Empire, was historically known for being a merge of two distinct tribal societies that have learned and grown as colonial empires came and went and developed new nations. The last emperor, Frederick Peters, was the last emperor due to many individual Marajarbian citizens at the time wanting to divide the Federation into several parts, which only happened thanks to Emperor Frederick giving his grandchildren and nephews certain territories to rule in his will. One such grandchild was President Jackson himself, who has been invited as the first on the list of potential new emperors.

The Federation was also historically known as a British colony after the breakup of the Great Asian Empire, which is how many Marajarbians have English last names, as well as why there is a parliament instead of a senate. After the Federation gained independence from the British Crown, the Soviet Union moved right in during the cold war, causing ties to the soviet union to grow slightly, and for Socialism to be adopted. After the fall of the Soviet Union, ties to the West continued until Emperor Frederick had passed away.

The following is a speech he makes upon announcing he will be running for president:

My friends, we are in the midst of a defining and pivotal moment for our country and our planet. And, with so many crises converging upon us simultaneously, it is easy for us to become overwhelmed or depressed — or to even throw up our hands in resignation. But my message to you today is that if there was ever a moment in the history of our country where despair was not an option, this is that time.

If there was ever a moment where we had to effectively analyze the competing political and social forces which define this historical period, this is that time. If there was ever a moment when we needed to stand up and fight against the forces of oligarchy and authoritarianism, this is that time. And, if there was ever a moment when we needed a new vision to bring our people together in the fight for justice, decency, and human dignity, this is that time.

We are going to bring a political revolution to this country. We are going to bring in a new age of democracy, liberalism, and freedom! We are going to transform this country and create an economy and government that works for all of us, not just the 1%. Today, I want to welcome you to a campaign, which says loudly and clearly that the underlying principles of our government with not be greed, hatred, and lies. It will not be racism, sexism, xenophobia, homophobia, and bigotry. It will not be tax breaks for millionaires, and it will not be the reduction of millions for healthcare and essential services.

This campaign is going to end all of that. The principles of our government will be based on justice, economic justice, social justice, racial justice, environmental justice. Today, I welcome you to a campaign that tells the powerful special interests who control so much of our economic and political life that we will no longer tolerate the greed of corporations and the millionaire class, greed which has resulted in this country having income and wealth inequality. No, we will no longer stand idly by and allow a handful of families to own more than all others. Too many of our veterans and children live in poverty, out on the streets. Too many cannot afford their drugs. We are here to tell the 1% that we will no longer tolerate them having more wealth than all others. We will take this country back!

President Jackson has accepted the offer to become the first Emperor of the Second Marajarbian Federation. This comes as the parliament has also voted on rejoining as Andreusville is set to become the second biggest coastal city in the Second Federation.

With the formation of empires and emperors, Sealand has decided against similar action, believing it unnecessary when Sealand has recently detonated a nuclear weapon. In one of Sealand's uninhabitable deserts, a nuclear weapon with a yield of 30kt had been successfully detonated. It's not a very large nuke, though we will get more powerful nuclear weapons in time. We aim for a dozen nuclear weapons with a yield of at least 300kt. We see this development as being vital in future wars, as well as a source of national pride. We have high hopes for Sealand's nuclear program in the following years. Little Brother has confirmed that this weapon will only be used for deterrence.

One man gets out of the chopper, and walks into the embassy with the riot shields protecting him.

[The Military State of the Galapagos]

GLA forces remain underground planting mines and waging a war of terror against the communists oppressors and civilian armed resistance grows as does the general anti-SM sentiment. Civilians resort to dropping gas grenades on clumps of SM soldiers and the GLA says: This is what happens when a country that nobody likes tries to occupy you they meet fierce resistance, if they had the support of the people then they would not have to rule by force yet look at the scenes outside. Death and war rage through the Galapagos thanks to these communist slavers, and by now they have shed any pretense of upholding democracy in favor of keeping their one part state. We are merely giving the people what they want, freedom. As the crowds say “We will never be slaves” this means we will never submit to SM and their genocidal communist dictatorship we will fight until we rid these menaces from our lands.
