[Flardania]

The Kirishinan Broadcasting Corporation is the flagship source of the nations news. It was founded in 1977 by Asakura Yamato and Ga Pil-Jae originally as a radio station near Mahora University at Mahora. It was off as a grassroots effort in reporting the news during the latter half of the Tujaeng era (1968-1983) and was used to subvert the ruling dictatorship. In the 90's well known Kirishinan Anchor Francois Chevrolet was released from KLS news due to KLS not seeing value in individual anchors. Francois came in with a refined voice and aesthetic while delivering factual news. This was sorely needed in the aftermath of authoritarian rule, corrupt elites, and the Asian Financial Crisis. Today the KBC News wing is known for objective Kirishinan Domestic News and objective World News through the cultural lens of Kirishima. The KBC releases news in the main languages of French, Japanese, and Korean. English is also available for international news. On the website, articles can be found translated in Chinese, Russian, Vietnamese, Thai as well as the official languages of SACTO member states.

Un Nouvel Espoir Courageux,A new opportunity for the Kitsunes

FBC News | Flardanian Broadcasting Corporation

Coach: Hikaru Kyosuke

At 8:00 Am The Flardania National team arrived in Super-Llamaland's Wheathampton for The Group C matchup in WF III. The team lead by 32 y.o Hikaru Kyosuke arrived at the Airport after departing Marquis De Lafayette International in Megalo Mesembria. After struggling to find a tournament and friendlies after the Kitsunes Formation, WF III awaits them. The last match played by Flardania was their 0-0 tie with allied United States of Devonta in a friendly.

Except from Coach Kyosuke: It was a great effort. We knew it was going to be a tough game seeing how United States of Devonta is a much more established team. Hence they being in the Cup of Harmony and we missed out on applying for BOF. It was touching to see all our fans travel to Devonta just to see us in a friendly and the goosebumps we felt with the playing of our anthem. It's a shame that we couldn't win considering all the emotions and support we had. This is our sport, our favorite sport, a sport that all Flardanians play even before they can walk or talk. We breath football. Simply put we are young, fresh, and hungry. I plan on taking advantage of that while we are young with no rank and use that time to try different styles to find a unique Flardanian football {style}. We know how to win and fight, now we just have to win and fight for Flardania.

Except from Coach Kyosuke in regards to being in WF III Christmas Truce and potentially facing Devonta again. You know this tourney may not mean much to some of the other nations but this means the world to us. We have no World Cup circuit match on our calendar so for us this is the real deal. We want to show the World our passion for this sport every time we step on the pitch as we work up the ladder in recognition. What happened with Star United States and United States of Devonta is in the past and we will look towards the future. We are here to play. Tomorrow night our new national uniforms via Meski sports (bless them) will be worn with pride as we walk out the tunnel and my players line up. It will be our first international playing of our anthem in a major sporting event we will be filled with controlled emotion, we will try new things and hopefully bring the Goddess a victory.

......In terms of practice, I made my team do reps and drills within the past weak. Joseph Yabuta seems anxious to carrying his stellar performance on the Emerson Nymphs to the international level. Once we arrived here we did some light dills to get use to the environment. We should be well rested tonight and show everyone what we are made of. We hope we can find a winning formula and start making our nation proud. - Hikaru

The Kitsunes are here and fired up ready to go as far as inhumanly possible. Their hardwork, trails as they finally made a tourney, and pure love for the game is drawn out. Many Flardanians have already flown in from the Asia-Pacific determined to see their Kitsunes do battle.

Coach: Hikaru Kyosuke after win

After a disappointing 0-1 loss to Trowulani Knights, Flardania was stuck in a must win situation especially since in WF III: The Christmas Truce only the Group Winners advance. Flardania walked into Super-Llamaland's Wheathampton against Naval Monte that also needed a win to stay alive. The match went on nil nil till Joseph Yabuta of the Emerson Nymphs broke free on a through ball (delivered by Papadopoulos) and chipped the ball over the opposing Goal Keeper in the 34th minute to the roar of the Flardania section. The game went on with Flardania determined to keep the lead and get the win. The on the 71st minute the Captain, Hyun Ji Kim of the Port Nathalia Mermaids headed the ball off of a corner delivered by Papadopoulos. This put Flardania up 2-0 and gives the Kitsunes a +1 in Goal Difference.

Except from Coach Kyosuke: It was a great team effort. We knew it was a must win situation but we also knew we had the talent to win. We meditated before the game and we let the game come to us. Every minute we didn't score we refuse to panic and awaited for our time to shine. Once we scored that first goal. We knew another goal can potentially be a difference maker and we eventually got that goal. I apologize to our opponets since we knocked them out but we had to do what ever had to be done. We will be playing our hardest in the final group match and put a performance where we can walk with our heads held high win or lose.

The Kitsunes are up against group leader Patistan in their next game. The Kitsunes need a win and a Naval Monte win or a Naval Monte and Trouwulani Knights draw to advance. Many Flardanians are hopeful for the next matchup.

Changement de Politique, Dirigeant appoints Kuvira Beifong as Ministre de la Défense

Kuvira Beifong

Megalo Mesembria, Flardania- Today Dirigeant Arata Kasuga addressed another thing from his campaign platform. Arata promised to strengthen and reform the armed forces. This all started today with the appointment of Kuvira Beifong from the small city of Zaofu in the Sentoran Prefecture. Arata released a statement in regards to the new Minister of Defense. "Ms. Beifong has been studying warfare for the longest time, and her experience significantly surpasses Fmr. Dirigeant Kiryuin. This plus her unending love for Flardania and it's people gives her the motivation to do what ever it will take for Flardanians to sleep easy. This my friends is the meaning of defense and it is what she provides."

This has been another cleared task on list of objectives that Dirigeant Kasuga had promised to perform. He has reformed the Embassy program and has been encouraging business growth. He won the 4th IFC summit bid and has appointed what many believes to be an outstanding choice for Minister of Defense.

Kuvira after accepting the appointment and being sworn in at the Lunar House chambers got set to fly off to Cap-Haitien, Haiti stating "The first thing that Flardanian Haitians need is an apology for how the Bayan used their land as an attack point and endangered the people there during the Chucara crisis. I will be going their in person to assure Flardanian-Haitians that they too can rest easy and with my positioning I will consult Arata and the rest of the government do not necessarily what is right but what is best for my nation. I plan on visiting the rest of the territories as well so after Haiti I will be visiting Taipei and Hong Kong."

For the time being Flardania can only wait for the eventual rewards.

Jerónimo Cervantes during speech

Santiago de Cuscatlan, Gran Cuscatlan- With the shocking after effects of Miguel Vanelli's death and Carlos Silva's shocking call for a democratic election. A friend of Gen. Carlos Silva Jerónimo Villaseñor Cervantes has won the elections in Gran Cuscatlan, with his Party of National Justice scoring crushing victory of over 72% votes unsurprisingly. However Dirigeant Arata Kasuga is hopeful as seen in a released statement.

"This democratic government will probably not last long before they [Cuscatlani Government] rush to reinstate a military junta. However this is a critical moment in their history, foreign policy, a international perception. Obviously they [Gran Cuscatlan] will still be an important leader in SACTO and the like. However this new goverment has potential to be more cooperative in dialogue with Flardania. Furthermore with the Cuscatlani government operating this way they can't be called fascist as they are democratically presenting the will of the people whoever it may be."

The new administration is still new and you can be certain the Kasuga administration will be keeping an eye on this.

La Folie Continue Dans Ardoki, Flardanians Protest Ardokian Acts.

Dr. Pierre M. Joseph, the Minister of Foreign Affairs for the Taisuist Autocratic Republic of Flardania.

Flardanians protest the hypocritically intolerant nation of Ardoki in Downtown Kairaku

Ardea, Ardoki- Yesterday, hundreds of literalistic christian people converged on the capitol from all corners of Ardoki. There they verbally heckled other citizens of Ardoki, in a display of ignorance. They violated 15 national laws, and each defendant could face a jail time of up to 75 years which Flardania's Attorney General Haruhi Fujioka called outrageous and over the top. The protest campaign began near midday, when the defendants who identify as Christians assembled to express their views. The largely biased ABCNEWS that at times reports unprofessionally cites "They openly called for LGBT people to be brutally murdered via stoning , and called for the end of secularism and atheism in Ardoki, to be replaced with a christian theocracy. When the police arrived, to calmly tell them to move on. They started insulting, spitting on, and physically assaulting the police officers who had no option to bring all the protesters in for the various crimes they had committed." Miho Naruzaki age 23 from Enrika Flardania , who was present in Ardea presented a different account.

"...As is already well known the Ardoki population claims to be tolerant but then hushes up and "reeducate" those with different views. I was well surprised to see Christians come out of hiding and I began to think that the stories of Ardoki being intolerant was false. The protesters called for LGBT people to repent and find God not brutally murdered, although they did call for the end of secularism and atheism in Ardoki. Rather than be tolerant and allow free speech the police arrived. Now like any protest crowd they did not yield and told the officers to burn in hell. Now the atheist extremist of Ardoki who don't believe in hell got enraged somehow and used the insult as an excuse to launch tear gas and beat people down. It was disgusting and the people cheering were even more disgusting..."

At their first court hearing the prosecution charged them with: unlawful gathering, organizing an unregistered protest, taking part in an unregistered protest, public display of religious tendencies, propagation of religion, hate speech, hate activities, anti-egalitarian activities, civil rights violations, civil disturbances, assault of officers of the law, public nuisance, rioting, reactionary speech and reactionary activities. This are petty small crimes and some of which you can't even call laws but rather an attack on freedom. The Attorney General Haruhi Fujioka was amused and not surprised rehab (brainwashing like Orwell's 1984) was a recommended action.

Flardanians are outrage at the handling of the situation. Minister of Foreign Affairs Dr. Pierre M. Joseph remarked. "The greatest mistake of the Kiryuin Administration was attempting to at least normalize relations with Ardoki, just because they made progress. For every one step forward they take 1984 steps back. Things would be easier if the Ardokian government admitted to being intolerant before going on with everyday business " he said today at a rally in Yurihama, Flardania.

Massive protests are scheduled to be held across Flardania later this week, not to support those who got arrested but in an act of defiance to those who hypocritically claim to be tolerant. Meanwhile people in Kairaku and Hong Kong have already begun protest in peaceful candlelight protest while the cities of Yu Dao and Port-au-Prince had pictures of Alastaire Moriarty and the Ardoki Flag burned. This has been another strain in what used to be great relations between Ardoki and Flardania. Arata Kasuga Dirigeant of Flardania has stated that he will be joining in the Megalo Mesembria march, and encourages all those who express interest to join.

Senator Megumi Ayanami, Head of Allies Maintenance and Formation Committee (AMFCo)

Flardanians in Enrinka protest the raid on the Flardanian Embassy in Guadalapador and destruction of
War Memorial.

Megalo Mesembria- Yesterday, Libres Novos which is known by some around the internet as "The Voice of Occupied Guadalupador while others refer it to traitorous terrorists. uploaded a video compiling several clips of audiovisual material smuggled out of the country. The video, titled: "Is This What You Meant?" was uploaded to YouTube and has gone viral, being shared all over social media. Now Flardanians no about the civil war and the government informed the population about the embassy crisis but what no one knew was the extent of the damages.

The video clips in question shows the brutal suppression of peaceful protesters during the Flardanian Embassy Raid by the Cuscatlani BOEP. People are being beaten by BOEP troops, while some are being dragged away to be detained. The video then continues, as people document the aftermath of the raid, people are lying on the ground, injured, and possibly dead, puddles of blood and broken police batons are littered across the street, the camera pans over towards the ruined gates of the raided embassy, where hundreds of Dorians trying to find political asylum in Flardania were captured and arrested. Also seen was the desecration by Tragenberg troops to the Bethuana War Memorial.

"Flardanians took to the streets to show that allies or not certain acts will not be ignored. They don't care if they are apart of SACTO but will place blame when blame is due. We have a smart populace and the Kasuga administration along with the Lunar House encourages the populace to voice their opinions. To the cowards in the Solar house who seem to fear SACTO I ask this. Will you sit back and look away when your own embassy is attacked and raided. When Flardanian embassy guards were killed, when your ambassador is placed in danger! Unlike you the Dirigeant dose not fear SACTO and can leave at anytime just at this time it's a beneficial relationship...." Senator Megumi Ayanami head of the Allies Maintenance Committee stated earlier,

Dirigeant Arata Kasuga stated. "This will not go unheard, we will be seeking compensation and Cuscatlan will obey international law at least in regards to Flardania." Exiled Premier of Guadalapador Natayla Saiko who has yet to comment to local media since arriving is anticipated to release a statement soon.

Assistant Coach Renee Lévesque of The Flardania Men's National Team

Flardanians at Ilias Garden in Kairaku proudly rooting for the Kitsunes

Megalo Mesembria- As everyone knows soccer is the most valued sport in Flardania and despite usually having a huge viewership for the World Cup circuit that consist of Baptism of Fire, The World Cup, and Cup of Harmony, an even bigger following is expected now that Flardania has entered the Baptism of Fire. Manabu Akitsuki, a fan from Enrinka Flardania is estatic. " I think this will be good for the nation we a love this sport very much and by attending the Baptism of Fire and World Cup, we can better ourselves through experience and better compet against ranked oppornets in the future....it is our first offical tournament but I still think we need a strong performance in this torunament because eventually we seek to be a champion.

Flardania is coming off a 1-3 record in their pre-baptism of Fire matchup losing to Gloriax 3-2 and 3-1, losing to Schottia 2-0 and defeating Palmeria 1-0. Despite losing these games Flardanians are still hopeful as they were undefeated against fellow unranked KPB team Palmeria. The First woman manager of the Konami-F league for the Kairaku Mymphs Ms. Renee Lévesque, who is currently the assistant coach of the Men's national team was optamistic. Except from Lévesque: "It was a great effort. We knew it was going to be a tough series seeing how Gloriax and Schottia are much more established teams. We lost those three matchups but it was a learning experience as we got use to competition, we played hard, and our fans where here in huge numbers. We are ready to step onto the world stage and compete with the best to be among the best, I know the Kitsunes fans will be there at our corner like always and we will do our best to provide a performace they can take pride in. We plan on taking advantage of being young with no rank or KPB Rank and use that time to try different styles to find a unique Flardanian football {style}. We hope we can find a winning formula and start making our nation proud."

Notable contrabutions to the national team include Joseph Yabuta, the young up and coming striker of the Kairaku Nymphs F.C looking to impress the world with his speed and finishing touch. Rodrigue "The Wall" Gardinier in as the Goalkeeper from the LaRousse Liberté and Last Year's Konami F-League MVP Hyun Ji Kim the Mid-Fielder from the Port Natalia Mermaids.

The Kitsunes are practicing here in Megalo Mesembria and fired up ready to go as far as inhumanly possible.

Une Performance Décente, Flardania Wins one and Draws another against Walamzia

Manager Hikaru Kyosuke directing The Flardania Men's National Team in friendly play

Flardanians in Rottington, Walamzia with amazing support for their
Kitsunes

Kairaku, Flardania- With the upcoming Baptism of Fire Tournament, Flardania looked to strengthen itself with more matches with fellow non KPB ranked teams. The latest was a home and away series against Walamzia. The first matchup was held in Rottington, Walamiza which had a lot of Flardanians in attendance due to Air Pacifica offering discounts to any Flardanian with a ticket to a international match.

Hikaru Kyosuke went out with his expected starting 11 for the first game, and emphasized his training points from the sidelines. He was rewarded in the 7th minute when Joseph Yabuta who finished with the outside of his right foot into the lower right corner. His shot came from an ariel through ball by Pandazi Papadopoulos. Later in the match Walamzia would tie the game before Flardania would reclaim the lead in the 41st minute with Joseph Yabuta scoring a header of a cross by Norio Osada. Flardanians in Walamiza where ecstatic at the end of the first half leading 2-1, with few expecting their road performance to get any better. The 48th minute began with a goal by Yoon Gyeong Kim with an assist by Joseph Yabuta to put Flardania up 3-1. Flardania would score one final goal in the 79th minute when backup mid-fielder Hideyoshi Kagome scored off a cornered delivered by Hyun Ji Kim to put Flardania up 4-1. Walamzia would save face with a 90th-minute goal by Jake Edgar whose shot came from a cross from winger Mike Bassett which landed squarely on his forehead. Manager Hikaru Kyosuke was happy his team played well but acknowledged the game had no long term rewards. "Our win was a good feel good story in that we went out and performed to the best of our ability on the road but the only thing this game did was give us tape to study from. The real games begin during the Group Stages of the Baptism of Fire and beyond."

In the second match-up which was not held in the capital Megalo Mesembria but rather Yurihama. Flardania produced a 2-2 draw with Walamzia. Walamzia had scoring by Mark Trumbull (36') and Jake Edgar (85'). On the other side Flardania had scoring by Joseph Yabuta (21') and Norio Osada (63'). A clutch save by Peter Howard to stop reserve 17 year old Josuke Ichikawa of hometown Yurihama prevented Flardania the win. Assistant Coach Renée Lévesque was alright with the result stating " A draw isn't bad because in a tournament you will still get points that way. It is obviously not as good as a win and we are all wish Josuke scored in his club's stadium but we move on and work on better prepping ourselves."

The Kitsunes are now practicing here in Kairaku and Coach Kyosuke is working on fine tuning a scheme that seems to fit the Kitsunes. The team once again thanks all it's fans for making every game feel like home and would like to thank Air Pacifica for making it easier for fans to come show their support. We at FBC would like to remind those at home, that games can be seen on Nagatomo Sport Network (NSN) and Saito Broadcast Channel (SBC)

Not only was Flardania grouped with Eupheos Anetus but that is also the very first opponent of the Kitsunes in Group play. Hikaru Kyosuke manager of the team had some words before departing with the team to Nia Teppelin Airport towards Equestrian States. "We played good close games with our opponents and we had great chīmuwāku! One thing I plan on doing is departing for Equestrian States now so we can rest from the flight, then meet with some of the fans that will be with us with support, but primarily I plan on some drills. I need Kim to score from mid-field like I know he can to keep our opponents of balanced we also need to better recover during possession change to limit counter attacks. This will be an interesting tournament that i would like to go deep in. A win in the first match can help us avoid playing catchup in the group standings."

The Kitsunes are currently boarding there designated plan bound for the Equestrian States. Coach Kyosuke seems satisfied with his scheme and hopes for an improved showing against Eupheos Anetus.

Manager Hikaru Kyosuke drilling the team before dawn.

The Kitsunes performing light drills earlier today

Manehattan, Equestrian States- With the first matches of the Baptism of Fire Tournament set to kick off tonight, Flardania looked to keep there muscles loose with some light drills. The kitsunes who elected to arrive in Manehattan a day earlier had the option of relaxing with an off day before Manager Kyosuke signature pre-dawn drills. Coach Kyosuke and Assistant Coach Renée Lévesque took the time to answer some of my questions during breakfast.

Q: Kyosuke-san, what does Flardania need to do in order to be successful in this tournament?
A: "Adapt and survive, the great thing about Baptism of Fire is that we will face only unranked opponets, however we aren't ranked as well. The key is adapting quickly on the pitch and survive as long as possible. The further we go the better ranked we will be and the more high stakes experience we will have. This will be important in the long run as we seek to increase prestige and success."

Q: Kyosuke-san, what was the thought process in deciding to travel to Manehattan a day early?
A: "For what we are doing now, rather than sit home one more day with no friendly scheduled. The Staff and I decided to come to Manehattan to get used to the environment and pitch and then take our time with our scheduled light easy day in Manehattan than flying to Manehattan."

Q: You spoke of environment, what is the teams reaction to the people of this nation and atmosphere heading into the first matches?
A: "Well we wave, we are polite, treat them with respect like the Goddess mandates of us but other than that there is nothing to it. We came here to play football not relax in vacation. However one thing I have taken in appreciation is some of the local who are wearing jerseys of the Kitsunes and the Flardanians who are walking the city prepared to support us. No matter where we go this team can expect a large showing from The Otaku Football Army, and with there love and support we always seek to do our fans proud win, draw, or lose. "

Q: Lévesque-san, what would you say led to you being among the few if not only female head or assistant coach in this tournament?
A: "Oh I get questions too, Merci [bows & table occupants laugh] I would say Joseph Yabuta he was a little known player who was never given a shot going into middle part of his rookie season. The Kairaku Nymphs as you know was last in the Konami-F League and as a way of tanking so we can guarantee the first Draft pick. The Nymphs hired a woman. I don't know if it was the league was caught off by my coaching style, my given Yabuta breakout debut being because he wants to impress me [winks at Yabuta, Yabuta blushes looking away while team and staff laugh], impress my friend Myeong Yi who I hired as team doctor and is the doctor of the national team. [Yabuta blushes harder, team laughs harder] or maybe impress both of us...[room silent Joseph Yabuta Caribbean-dark skinned face is red as blood blushing as he excuses himself to bathroom, room even more silent than burst laughing even louder] Oh my seems I went a little too far there. Point is it seems the nation feels i'm the best bet to accompany Kyosuke as a lethal coaching weapon and best at maximizing Yabuta's potential."

Q: You seem to have good team chemistry, why is that?
A: "Well this team is the best of Flardania and we made sure to not just have star power but players that can like or at least respect each other. Also this is the same team from NS World Fair III: Christmas Truce with the exception of Ichikawa-kun. He is a good and competitive sport that was able to gel. When we are not working on perfecting our craft, we like spending time in each others company. This is true unity."

As heard from the answers the Kitsunes are trying to remain focus and relaxed going into their matchup with Velstaende. Velstaende seems to have some tight defense and it will be up to the Kitsunes to score fight as they attempt to not fall behind in the standings early. Currently 900 members of the Otaku Football Army fan zone are in Manehattan to attend the Kitsunes games. This is not including any fan who may have arrived after the writing of this article. The National team would like to thank Air Pacifica for making it easier for fans to come show their support. We at FBC would like to remind those at home, that games can be seen in Japanese or French on Nagatomo Sport Network (NSN) and Saito Broadcast Channel (SBC) also tonight opening game can be seen on our second channel (FBC 2) for those who wish to watch an english broadcast.

The Kitsunes currently third in Group C

Manehattan, Equestrian States- Flardania's first game in the Baptism of Fire against Velstaende ended in a 0-0 draw. Derby Field here in Manehattan held 25,778 devouted Kitsunes fans.The Otaku Army came vocal as drums, chants, banzuri's, and giant anime posters of Key Players were draped in the fan section. Velstaende fought tooth and nail with their very tough defense providing little oportunities for the Kitsunes to score. However like Kyosuke preped his team for was getting back to defense quickly after a failed offensive attempt seemed to have worked. For the times Velstaende did shoot on goal, Rodrigue "the wall" Garidinier was there to keep it tied. An unfortunate night for Yabuta and Osada for whenever they managed to escape the extremely defensive minded opposition they had poor attempts or opposition goalkeeper dampening the mood. Coach Kyosuke was satisfied with the draw.

"....I'm satisfied with a draw because a draw gets you points and has us in third. As long as we are at 3rd place or better in the group our tournament dream stays alive. We went in against quite possibly the most defensive team in the whole Baptism of Fire that countered us at every failed attempt and we drew. Despite being offensive minded we had great fundamentals to hold off all counter attacks. And The Otaku Army fan section was providing our players energy. In a match where losing would put us in a bad spot. We passed, is it the best spot? no it's meh, but workable. Our next opponents we have only lost or drawn against them in friendlies. Hopefully we are prepared enough to win this time or draw again. Now the team is off to bed as we want to be well rested for our next game."

The Kitsunes next opponent is the team hailing from Eupheos Anetus. During friendlies the Kitsunes managed to draw and lose to this team. Since that loss and especially since they where drawn into the same group as Eupheos Anetus, the team toke some time to review film of the games as they look to improve against another defensive minded team with more offensive capabilities than Velstaende. Many Flardanians are hoping they can win this time not just to advanced into a better position in the group but to also not have a team that consistently best them. For those at home games can be seen on Nagatomo Sport Network (NSN) and Saito Broadcast Channel (SBC) in Japanese or French. For those seeking english broadcast check local network listings.

Inyursta Whistle Blower exposes corruption and Communists!

Our next story comes from Inyursta. A Government leak of files and documents were released to the press. The culprit has recently come forward as Jean-Paulo Lancorda, a former analyst who was hired on as cyber security consultant to the Inyursta Legislative Assembly. Lancorda, age 34, reportedly copied and made back-up files before taking his findings to his sensei. However, his findings were confiscated and blown under the rug by an official who has yet to be named. Being left at a dead end and stonewalled he anonymously leaked the information to the press. We now go to our correspondent Takeshi Matsumoto who is in Castille de Terro. Takeshi?

Yes Haneul the city has been a buzz since the report gone out. Since the findings were released to the press, several prominent figures have resigned. So far, no arrest warrants have been issued for any party involved. There seems to be a national split with many believing that certain government officials should be tried for perjury and or treason while other support the notion that Mr. Lancorda should face legal action for his release of classified and in some cases private information.

According to Newsmaxi, including Senator Lanson Sãorules who used public funds to spend time with escorts on his private yacht and Fjorda De'Rivera Mayor Carlos Montousse]who made several emails and phone calls to known cartel associates. However what comes next is incredible and is one can only expect from a fellow SACTO ally. The big reveal in the eyes of the locals is not the corruption and misuse of funds but rather the political leanings of a closeted Communist. Senator Stèphan Jean-Luc was recorded praising the "achievements" of communist Cuba, as well as admiring the "determination and perseverance to egalitarianism" of the Bulgar Rouge. Another exposed Diego Rodrigues being tied to several emails discussing the prospect of nationalizing key Inyurstan industries and foreign business assets as well as radical and unconstitutional reforms to "promote income equality" (a.k.a. collectivism and redistribution). These statements come in direct opposition to the claims both individuals have made trying to convince others they are "by no means communist". Back to you Haneul.

Thank You Takeshi! As more updates come in we will be sure to respond, so far like Flardania many nations have found criticism for the priorities of the Inyursta people from respectable logic based critics from nations such as ours to weak fantasies of the Ardokian media. Now our next story is on the arrest of domestic terrorist Makoto Ogawa...

Brutal Anti-Communist Witch hunt along Cuscatlani - Inyurstan Border

Report by Akira Haruno

Our next story comes from the Inyursta-Cuscatalan border region. Cuscatlani para militants, known as the Commando Sombre, have captured, tortured and executed Alberto Cassias de la Plata, an individual with links to Commiegate. This news follows and is related to the, Inyursta government leak release of confidential documents by Mr. J.P Lancorda, a former Inyurstan intelligence analyst, and shook Inyurstans to their core to realized that some of their politicians cared little for the good of their country. While some media chose to focus on criticizing the right, SACTO governments, and the Inyursta government, while other media focuses on hunting communist. One has to wonder about the setbacks of the Peresque Administration that are already barely democratic and the risk such an incident involving elected offical poses. A Right-wing Senator Lanson Sãorules attempted to seek asylum in Brytene after being accused of using government funding to hire the services of call girls, and has reportedly been taking into custody near Dyflin, as reported by The Brytscop.

Dirigeant Arata Kasuga had recently released a statement that reads: "Our thoughts and prayers go out to our fellow SACTO allies, the Inyurstan people whose trust were betrayed by some of their elected officials. Our thoughts and prayers also go out to our enemies on the left who have fallen victim or are at risk to crossing paths with Commando Sombre. All beings have the right to due process and a trial. Not to be brutally tortured by para militants. To those who are being hunted if you want to surrender but fear an unjust execution. You may attempt to come to Flardania to turn yourself in. You will undergo a fair trial and you will receive an appropriate punishment that does not consist of torture. Arigatō!

With the latest events spiraling out of control it would seem that the Kasuga administration is attempting positive PR for SACTO and performing the role that the governments of these Para militants should be doing.

Flardania's First LGBT Parade Post Sexual Freedom Law
First SACTO Nation to Promote Legality?

News Intro (ends at 20 seconds)

Welcome to the Newsroom Report on the FBC Network, I'm Sugiyama Shinya. The main story at the top of the hour, today is the day that the Sexual Freedom Bill becomes officially a law the same day as the annual Flardania gay pride parade. We will have our political legal analyst go over the meat and potatoes of this law and what does it mean for homosexuals as well as the amendments to the legalization of prostitution. Also a top story is the move Flardania has just made while being part of a right wing alliance such as the Santiago Anti Communist Treaty Organization, which will entail a live statement from the Federal Palace as Dirigeant Kasuga explains the thought that went into him signing this proposal into law and the never ending fight in some nations between faith and culture vs homosexual rights. Later in the program we will cover the Flardanian national team as they prepare for World Cup 72 qualifications .However right now we will now look into what exactly is in this new law. On the phone now is our political legal analyst Ikeda Tokaji.

On The Phone

S:"Welcome once again Ikeda-san, can you explain to our viewers here and abroad what is in this law?"
T:"Yes thank you Sugiyama-san, well what this law does is legitimize homosexual marriages and enable homosexuals to receive the same benefits as heterosexual marriages and polygamous unions, to an extent."
S:"Okay thank you, can you please explain what the gray areas of this extent is?"
T:"Yes, well for starters religious institutions such as the Lake Shore Order and the Roman Catholic Church have the right to not preform marriages for homosexuals due to the RC Church believing in marriage between man and women and while Lake Shore Order preaches tolerance has scripture that only prohibits male and male relationships due to Goddess being a jealous Goddess as seen in Judicial 2:4 of La Vérité. Their religious freedom remains intact, as does every other faith except temporarily the Flardanian Orthodox Church in retaliation to it's anti-Flardanian message. "Also homosexuals will not be granted the right to have polygamous relations but bisexuals now can form polygamous unions."
S:"Finally what is the amendments to the legalization of prostitution trial act that was finalized in this proposal."
T:"The Flardanian LGBT party lost a big one as the H.E.S.L party forced a concession from them. Homosexual prostitution in the form of masculine x masculine relationships are now illegal. This concession was done by the LGBT Party so that homosexuals could express themselves in public. Other parts of the Prostitution amendments added steeper penalties on those vendors and customers who participate with an STD, escorts who do not have a license from the ministry of health, brothels that do not have license and all escorts and brothels are subjected to random exams at any time in case of health or human rights violations."
S:"Seems while LGBT movement gained a victory the G part of the movement also lost a privilege in outlawing male x male relationships?
T:"Masculine X Masculine not male on male, if a male is deemed feminine then they get the much better bisexual treatment."
S:"Okay as much as I love having you on the program the Dirigeant is about to make his statement, thank you for taking the time"
T:"No Problem"

We now send you to the Federal Palace in Megalo Mesembria.

"Hello Ladies and Gentleman of the media, those watching at home and abroad." Arata began from behind the podium. "Today a proposal has gone into effect legalizing and legitimizing homosexual relationships. We have a system with democratic process different from many of our SACTO and IFC allies. We have a system where we do things for the majority but we protect and remember the minority. This is not a nation that will entertain 100% rights for homosexuals because while our faith allows it, it doesn't allow all forms of it. We however compromised and found something that everyone can be happy with. They need some sort of recognition and respect the same way human society has learn to accept one another regardless of age, gender, race, and religion. Sexual orientation should be properly handled as well. I do not believe every nation should legalize this. I believe the minority and majority should work together an compromise. If one of my SACTO brothers do not know how, I cangameplan with them to find a way to keep the majority happy while the minority can have at least something to smile about when they wake up. Remember culture at one point told us discriminating due to race, religion, and gender. It is the job of religious nations such as ours to lead the way in balancing values with the value of human respect. Thank You."

FBC will be back after the break.

イムゲアムの悲劇的な飛行機事故！
AirLoftus Flight 414 crash at Imgeum Airport, Approximate death toll is over 50

News Intro (ends at 20 seconds)

Welcome to the Newsroom Report on the FBC Network, I'm Sugiyama Shinya..... Tonight we have some breaking news. Earlier in the day AirLoftus Flight 414 from Loftus Armeia to Imgeum Kirishima had crash landed to the right of runway two. Over 90% of the passengers are believed to have died or missing, another seemed to have committed suicide with an illegal weapon. As with any plane crash this is an overwhelmingly emotional situation. Most of Lionesses football team in Armeia seemed to have died in this incident though how many has not yet been confirmed. We send it to Satoshi Durpree who is in Imgeum. Satoshi?

Satoshi:"Yes Shinya, as you can see behind me the fire has been put out by know and search crews are still trying to find survivors but....morale isn't looking to good."

Shinya:"Does anyone have an idea on what happened?"

Satoshi: "Pending investigation we can only go by the testimonials of Air Traffic Control and witnesses. Now AirTraffic control stated they received a distress call from flight 414. Considering the fact that the weather is clear it was assumed to be a problem with the plane itself. ATC claims that they urged flight 414 to land in the Ocean and not on land unless the pilot is a 100% confident. Witness in the form of staff said as the plane descended it seemed the plane could not stay straight as it missed the runway to the observers left. Now it's early to say considering more details are still coming in, but one question is why didn't the pilot abort the landing and aimed for the ocean. It's truly a tragedy. This is Satoshi Durpree signing off.

Thank you, we will keep you updated on this severe tragedy, now we go to Heiwa where the final four candidates for Dirigeant will be revealed.....

Interview by Uyeda Tanosuke

Bianka Schraeder on left, Tanosuke Uyeda on right
Discover the World Intro Song

Intro begins with a view from space as the world slowly turns below before cutting to a shooting star in the sky in the distance in a field of cherry blossoms with the words Discover the World written in the night sky. Intro then proceeds to show Tanosuke all over the world eating local foods, interviewing people, attending concerts, football matches, etc. About a minute and a half later the intro ends and cuts to Tanosuke and Bianka sitting across from each other in a hotel lounge room. Tanosuke smiled looking into the camera.

T:"Bonsoir et Konbanwa, welcome to Discover the World Sports on the FBC Network, I'm the host Uyeda Tanosuke. Tonight we have a special treat for those who are watching at home. I am here in Toakameau in the Free Republics with Armeian national and new AC Kawajiri Striker Bianka Schraeder." Tanosuke turned to face Bianka. Hello and thank you for taking the time to do this interview.

B: "No problem, I'd rather be here than sleeping after practice like half the team is," laughed Bianka. She was wearing a white and green AC Kawajiri scarf, which matched the white track shirt she wore since she had came here straight from training.

T:"That was a crazy finish to the previous game and just like Kirishima you’re in the final eight!" I see you’re already prepared to play for AC Kawajiri just from seeing your scarf. How does it feel knowing that this upcoming season, you will be playing in Asia?"

B: "It's going to be a bit strange not being in Armeia anymore. I think my sister's a bit more ready for it then I am... But I can't wait, I've wanted to play professionally for the longest time and now I'm actually going to."

T: "That's a good mentality to have and I think you will have fun with the Kirishinan football experience." Tanosuke stated. "You were not on the transfer market, would you mind telling the viewers how you ended up signing for AC Kawajiri such as your thoughts when you were approached as well as what the deciding factor was?"

B: "Well there's sort of a plan that I had before," explained Bianka. "I either wanted to wait for Draga to sign somewhere and follow her, or go to Lionesses, because our goalkeeper Isa Tangemen was going to sign there along with my friend Katarina, the vice captain on the team. But I got personally contacted by AC Kawajiri and the thing with Lionesses broke down when another team got interested in Isa, so this offer was too good to turn down."

T: "I see, well Takeshi Miyamoto is not called the mad scientist for nothing. Speaking of that deal some critics feel as if you are being paid too much when your sister who some argues is better was obtained cheaper by a better team. Others say you are not ready to be the face of a team not on the bottom. What do you say to your critics?"

B: “Bianka smiled weakly. "People always compare me to Draga but that's not fair to either of us. We don't even play the same position, I'm a pure striker and she's more of a center fielder, she's been playing false nine for the national team. Hawks is so deep, they don't need another center fielder so they loaned her for cheap, but I'm actually filling a role that's needed in Kawajiri."

Bianka paused before continuing. "I think my critics don't really know me. I think if they watch me closer for awhile they'll see that I'm just as capable as anyone when it comes to leading a team, even though I'm young."

T:Tanosuke nodded "I see I see. Many others are calling your team a dark horse as Ako Izumi decided to renew her contract with the team. This should give you the chance to prove naysayers wrong. Now final question in the spirit of good fun, do you think you can beat your sister, Nayasaki, Ichikawa, Carolina, Matsouka, and the star striker of the Kirishinan NT Yabuta for the golden boot? Many people who are not your critics would put you on that list.

B: "I think I can do it," said Bianka, grinning. "At Loftus College I had to create a lot of shots but here I'm more of a real striker, so expect more goals from me. I think we'll win at least one piece of silverware at Kawajiri, also."

T: "Thank You for doing this interview, I'm sure you will love it in Kawajiri. Good Piece of advice is even though English is spoken in some places you will go far if you learn the official languages of French or Japanese. Now I wish you luck in your career and the rest of the U-18 granted that you do not play Kirishima." Tanosuke said with a laugh.

B: "Half my teammates speak French on the U-18 team so I guess I should hit them up for lessons," said Bianka with a laugh. "Thanks for having me, I'm going to fly out to Kawajiri as soon as the Sporting World Cup is over and I think it’ll be great."

Tanosuke turns back to face the camera,"That is all our time for today join me next time on Discover the World. What will I do next and where are the questions to which I have no answer, tune in next time to find out. I'm Uyeda Tanosuke and Newsroom Report is up next so stay tuned." The camera pans out as Bianka and Tanosuke shake hands and exchange a laugh.

Interview by Uyeda Tanosuke

Discover the World Intro Song

: Intro begins with a view from space as the world slowly turns below before cutting to a shooting star in the sky in the distance, in a field of cherry blossoms with the words Discover the World written in the night sky. Intro then proceeds to show Tanosuke all over the world eating local foods, interviewing people, attending concerts, football matches, etc. About a minute and a half later the intro ends and cuts to Tanosuke and Natayla sitting across from each other in a hotel lounge room. Tanosuke smiled and looked into the camera.

T: "Bonsoir et Konbanwa, welcome to Discover the World on the KBC Network, I'm your host Uyeda Tanosuke. This show took my dreams of travel as well as my love of global understanding and allows me to share the world with our viewers in Kirishima, and the world. Tonight we have a wonderful guest for those who are watching at home. I am here at The Iconic Fountaine Bleu Hotel in Heiwa our nation’s capital with Natayla Saiko. "Tanosuke turned to face Natayla. Hello and thank you for taking the time to do this interview.

N: Natalya turned to Tanosuke with a smile, hiding her sadness. "It is a pleasure to be here Tanosuke." She said in heavily accented French.

T: Tanosuke nodded "I see you have been getting used to living here in Kirishima, as you have a good grasp of French at this point. Much better than the chaos when you first arrived here."

N: Natalya giggled, "Yes, over the past year it seems that I have been immersed in French. Such a beautiful language, if I do say so myself." She sighed before continuing. "It has been a year hasn't it? My, my my... those days were so chaotic."

T: Tanosuke nodded "Well it has been about a year since the fateful events in Nosamo, Guadalupador that led to you being forcefully remove by Trigra and later sacrificing living in your homeland so that the Federal Union would be left alone. How hard was it to do this?

N: Natalya once again sighed. "I-it was difficult." Natalya shook her head. "Going into the negotiations back in January, I surmised that Admiral Quardya would be a sensible man. He served in the Federal Navy for quite some time and had a distinguished career and service to the country he was sworn to defend. Unfortunately, he didn't amount to what I had previously thought of him..." She looked towards the camera, and back towards Tanosuke. "You know, I never thought that he would demand such a thing... It seemed to me, that he was trying to prove something to the other representatives." She smirked for a second before forming a frustrated frown on her face: "He was trying to impress a certain someone." Tanosuke could hear the veiled frustration and disgust in her voice. "At least- at least Guadalupador is alive, and well. Not under the heel of a foreign nation that has no respect for our history, our culture, even our religion..."

T: Tanosuke adjusted himself in his seat. “To be clear the person or group I should say that Quardya was trying to impress was the Santiago Anti Communist Treaty Organization?”

N: Natalya nodded. "Of course, More specifically, a certain leader, whom I shall not name here since the mentioning of his name is bound to make us all sick." Natalya said. Since she was out of power, she felt she could speak about her personal thoughts on international concerns freely.

T: "Ah okay, well while Kirishima remains a SACTO member, relations between Kirishima and Cuscatlan still seem frigid at best. However that brings up the issue of you no longer held by diplomatic niceties. How long did it take you to realize that it is safe to actively criticize SACTO in another SACTO nation?" Tanosuke asked.

N: "Kirishima is different. It's not like Gran Cuscatlan, or Nihon in the slightest. Here, you have the freedom to say what you want without a band of 'vigilantes' knocking on your door, and shooting you in the face because you said something that the Junta didn't like." Saiko continued. "Kirishima is civilized, and stable, both domestically and internationally. You don't have a tinpot dictator or some god-emperor in place watching you at all times of the day because their feelings get hurt too easily." Natalya shook her head as she thought of what Quardya was attempting to do. "Kirishima is the ideal member of SACTO: A nation that should be fighting Marxism. Not some nation that fights anyone that a certain Caudillo says is bad. It's a shame how the Santiago Pact works, ya know? If there were more nations like yours, then we would've been inclined to join the cause. It's all a matter of who's leading the pack of wolves."

T: "Well Kirishima has worked hard to reach that stability, despite some forces out there that wishes to see otherwise." Tanosuke said as he shook his head. "I'm sure you noticed it as well but SACTO does not just fight what he says is bad but it seems to be a new dimension in the modern Santiago Pact. There seems to be a layer of conservatism and religious fanaticism that is pushing many of these issues. To be honest Kirishima is going through the same however The Holy Order of Lake Shore is not Abrahamic and many of its values and brand of conservative teachings come out as being Libreal." Tanosuke said before facing the camera. "We will be back with the last half after the break."

---

T: "Welcome back to Discover the World I am here with Natayla Saiko." Tanosuke said with a smile before turning to Natayla. "So here’s a two part question, how is the path to Kirishinan Citizenship? Also what are you doing these days job wise, there are rumors that you might teach government and Politics seminars at the Prestigious University of Ariadne in Ariadne is this true?

N: “Natalya smiled. Now the conversation was going to take a lighter note: "My path to citizenship is almost done, actually, I hope to take the oath in a few weeks alongside many of the Dorian refugees." She then giggled at the second part of the question. "To put those tumors to rest, I have gotten offers to teach International Politics Seminars at several Universities in Heiwa, and offers to teach general Government and Politics at the University of Ariadne; Though I haven’t made up my mind yet. They're certainly on the table."

T: “Kirishima is glad to welcome you and all the many other refuges within our borders I guess soon enough there will be a Temple of Veii in Heiwa.” Tanosuke said with a laugh. “As you know elections are coming up in Kirishima and you will be eligible to vote by then. What do you think about the four candidates?”

N: "Arata Kasuga is a good man, and a good friend. Within the negotiations, he played with the best hand he was dealt with; definitely a great leader." Natalya paused for a second. "Miyeon Yi supports a good and sound policy for Kirishima's future. It needs to be tested though, and if she wins, she's going to have to deal with the children in control of large military powers, that's one heck of a challenge." She smiled before continuing: "The Liberty Party candidate? I don't think I can even remember his name... He's gonna try and change Kirishima into something it's not, something it shouldn't be: a state that approves of settling Cuscatlani vendettas. The same holds true for the Progressivist, but for a different reason. They're all for what Terten used to say. It's a bad mistake to get mixed up with them..."

T: Tanosuke got ready for the final question when he looked up to see the Executive Producer signaling him to get a little more details on the last statement before the warp up.

“If possible can you please explain why it would be a mistake for Kirishima to elect the Progressive Party candidate as Dirigeant and give our viewers new insight?” Tanosuke asked professionally.

N: In her peripheral vision, Natalya could see the crew begin signaling Tanosuke to wrap up the interview. She took a quick deep breath before answering the final question. "In regards to foreign policy, it'll endanger Kirishima even more, and open up the very real possibility of a Nihonese or Cuscatlani incursion on this country's territory. It'll give the Cuscatlanis a reason to enact another bloody 'regime change' and enforce their way of thinking and ideology on to Kirishima. It's very risky, especially considering the current state of the Bayan recently.

You think that they don't have the capabilities to invade and discreetly overthrow a legitimate government and replace it with a genocidal Integralist dictatorship? We in Guadalupador thought the same, and we paid the price for it."

T: Tanosuke nodded solemnly. “I thank the beautiful Natayla Saiko for being on the show and we can’t wait for you to be a fellow citizen of Kirishima. I really appreciate you taking the time to sit with me and I wish you all the luck in your future endeavors.” He said with a smile.

N: "Why thank you for having me on your program, it was an honor." Natalya grinned at Tanosuke.

Tanosuke turns to face the camera. "This has been Discover the World on the KBC Network from our nation’s capital. What will I do next and where I go are the questions to which I have no answer, tune in next time to find out. Stay tuned as Newsroom Report is up next. Once again I'm Uyeda Tanosuke and this as been Discover the World: change your perceptions.....change the world." Tanosuke said the motto as the Space Ambient Credit theme plays as the camera pans out. The credits begin running down the screen as Tanosuke can be seen shaking hands with Saiko.

安定性の欠如？
Bianka Schraeder violent message for Sayo Matsuoka, KFA: "This is troubling...."

Newsroom Report | Kirishima Broadcasting Corporation

News Intro (ends at 1 Min)

Welcome back to the Newsroom Report on the KBC Network, I'm Sugiyama Shinya. The feud between Bianka Schraeder and Sayo Matsuoka has been going on for the longest time. Bianka Schraeder an Armeian national who with Semerland National Kristan Marle and Kirishinan National Team superstar Ako Izumi led AC Kawajiri to their first top 5 finish in club history with a third place finish elected to leave. Bianka who was reported as not being too happy in Kirishima to begin with felt the need to return with the aftermath of AirLoftus Flight 414, in an effort to rebuild Lionesses back in Redtown Armeia.

A few weeks back without any indication, official announcement, or private message, Bianka was announced to signing a deal with Lionesses. Many in Kawajiri who were happy to see their village finish highly among bigger market team felt hurt and betrayed by the move. Manager Takeshi Miyamoto while not angry said during an interview: "I was not informed by Schraeder-san about her decision nor was I aware that a decision was being made.....I only hoped that we could've at least kept Bianka for the Globe Cup and if not be at least compensated for the lost...." While Takeshi's daughter breakout national team defender Koharu Miyamoto stayed silent, Koharu's friend Sayo who played aboard in Armeia went to social media and said in the same position she would have given management a heads up. Eventually in an interview Bianka called out Sayo and insulted AFC CC fans and made a comment about unwanted red haired step child. Sayo took offense to this since her team was being attacked while reportedly being in rage about the red haired comment considering Sayo's well know step sister Lilly Dukakis Matsuoka. While enraged Sayo fired back blindly and was met with backlash from many in Armeia.

Sayo would later clarify her position and focus on the World Cup where she helped lead the Kitsunes into the World Cup Proper with key goals. However it is unfortunate that KBC has to report that this feud has reached a new and dangerous Threshold, for more on the story we hand it off to Kobayashi Ayumi who is live outside the Palace in Redtown Armeia. Ayumi?

Ayumi:Yes Shinya, as you can see behind me the palace is a symbol of the Prestige that Lions and Lionesses have in Armeia and even more importantly locally in Armeia. Reports from an anonymous source has claimed that Bianka is remaining armed as a message to Sayo Matsuoka. The only evidence is a grainy picture showing what seems to be Bianka holding a Scorpion Evo 3 while arguing with unidentified individual. Nothing is confirmed right now as of this point but this would seriously push things to a new threshold if found to be true. Sayo's agent Kazuya Leclerc who I spoke with over the phone earlier said, "I would like to believe that the story is false and adding fuel to a pointless fire. I severely doubt especially after being called out for lack of maturity and professionalism that Bianka would stoop to carrying an armed weapon as a message to a harmless social media remarked that she overreacted too and would seemingly be doing if armed. My client had an eye opening experience playing against the best in the world during world cup proper and is now focused on furthering the development of her career."

On the other hand the Kirishima Football Association also released a statement that reads. "This is troubling news however, we trust Armeian Football to take threats like this seriously and investigate the legitimacy of these accusations against Bianka. We trust that Armeian Football will keep the interests of keeping foreign players safe and remain a role model organization in the Domestic Soccer Organization."

As you can tell once again at this stage since their is no confirmation and anything definite one can only speculate. The general consensus is that it is so unlikely that an individual would respond to a situation such as recent events with a weapon, a sub machine gun no less. However what this has done is now open awareness to the possibility of something going wrong and the awareness to be prepared for a worse case scenario. back to you Shinya.

Shinya: Arigatō. For our next story we will cover the latest events of this election cycle with..........

Takeru Saotome on Left, Himawari Park on Right

News Intro

TS:Welcome back to Sports in Review on KBC Sports, I'm Saotome Takeru

HP: And I am Park Himawari, before the break we covered the upset victory Kirishima had over Valanora before being eliminated from the group.

TS: *nods* Indeed it's moments like that where the match we should've won or at least draw against Omerica would've been much better.

HP: Well on the bright side at least we qualified and are for sure no longer minows

TS: Exactly, so now with the international campaign over with we now turn our attention to the Konami Premier League which got interesting with Miyoko Hojo heading to Armeia and Milan Toure heading to Imgeum being the biggest headlines.

HP: *gasp* Wait isn't Draga Schraeder and Marc-Andre Zupan still playing for Imgeum!?

TS:*Nods* Yes as well as the veteran defender from Zenic, Hyun Ha-neul. Imgeum is looking very good and it seems that despite Hojo the offense of Schraeder and Toure will seek to win it all this year.

HP: Not so fast Takeru, Hyuga in the span of three seasons went from Division 2, to mid table division one, to finishing second behind Akihabara by a single point. Akiho Ubukata has been phenomenal and I heard a rumor that a new young and talented foreigner with a similar background to Sayo Matsuoka will be joining the team. Is that true?

TS: Why yes a Mellish player named Sylvain Gainsbourg will be joining Hyuga Valkyries FC he prefers midfield but fits better at striker where there is less running which is good for his low stamina. In past interviews he mentioned something about not letting her be the only one to accomplish her goals while he sits at home. Could not figure who this her is.

HP: Oh sounds like a lover to me. So cute!

TS: *Perplexed* cute?

HP: Yea Sylvain looks like a cutie with almost a shota look to him and who ever that girl is sure is lucky. The idea of a couple seems cute to me!

TS: Well I guess your in luck as youth midfielder Rin Mizoguchi is also joining Hyuga Valkyries FC

HP: Well besides him being good looking I think credit needs to be given to those who are able to play on the Island of Yamatai. It's not for the faint of heart especially foreigners so good luck to Gainsbourg-san.

TS: Another team look dangerous so far I would say is SC In'eodong Undine as usual, Marmont Cosmic FC who finish 6th in there first season, however it remains to be seen if they can keep it. Ako Izumi who left Kawajiri decided to go close to home and sign for Heiwa Wizards FC so maybe they will make a comeback.

HP: Takeru your forgetting the defending champions Akihabara Electronic OFC?

TS: No I did not as I was getting to them and you know that *Himawari & Takeru laugh* Anyways with all these teams getting stronger Akihabara had to make a move of there own. Himawari take it away.

HP: So now we are on the line with new Akihabara OFC goalkeeper Ai Takagawa in an exclusive phone interview, Ai?

AT: Thanks for having me on. I'm still getting used to being known for Akihabara OFC, but I'm happy to finally get the deal done.

TS: Eh I suppose that comes with being in a large market. So Ai if I can call you by your first name. What made you decide to take your talents oversees?

AT: I thought long and hard about where to go and my first instinct was to follow Rakel Teixiera to Shore United, but they don't need a goalkeeper. I'm going to be honest, I don't have a lot of friends in our league. Lionesses, Hawks, and Southeastern were teams that I was interested in, but none of them want to take a risk in signing a rival, and I'm not popular at Southeastern because of the way I left them the first time. I decided to be more open minded and that I want to test myself against new competition.

HP: Oh I see, well I can say you competitive fighting spirit will fit in the KPL considering how competitive and unpredictable this league is.

TS: Ai, you mentioned that none of the teams you were intrested in wanted to take a risk in signing a rival. By that risk to you mean an upset fan base?

AT: I'm talking more about risking their locker room harmony. Lionesses, Center City, and Southeastern go back a long time as rivals, since the 2000s, and there's quite a rivalry between the players from Central Loftus and Redtown and Sudens City more recently.

TS: I see and I assume team chemistry was something important to you when you signed with Akihabara.

HP: What were the factors that resulted in you choosing Akihabara? Is it the talent, the market, the culture, non of the above, a mix, etc.

AT: For the earlier years of my career, I played in Sudens City, which is a large and football crazy market... We played at sold out stadiums every week, whether we were on the road or at home. We were the team to beat for the rest of the league. I missed that feeling, and that was one of the reasons I signed here. I think I fit in well with this group of players, too, which is something important to me.

HP: Well there isn't much arenas more packed than the Aincrad Arena. So I'm glad you you found what you are looking for. Also I really do think you will fit in with this group. Perhaps the Titanic three of Yabuta, Fujisaka, and Nguyen will now be the fantastic four! *Himawari giggles*

TS: Now that is making me more excited for the season, Ai thank you for taking the time to speak with us. Good luck for the rest of your season and we look forward to you wearing the black and blue.

AT: No problem and thanks, I hope to have a long career at Akihabara.

HP: That was nice, this balanced foursome will be very exciting but I believe we have one more thing to discuss?

TS: *strokes chin* Yes we do, now while we on the topic of Armeia and AFC Center City let's discuss Sayo Matsuoka. It has been a contract year for Sayo and the last interview she did with Kirishinan media she mentioned staying in AFC Center City but it appears things changed.

HP: *nods solemnly* Yes unfortunately there has been many reports of sexual harassment towards Matsuoka. Now understandably she has been reluctant to directly speak about the ordeal leaving most talks to her agent. Here is the original section of the report from Strikerless.

Strikerless: An ex-AFC Center City staff member revealed that star striker Sayo Matsuoka, who plays for Flardania, is likely to leave the club and not renew her contract, because the owner of the team, Karl Reach, frequently hung around the training grounds and sexually harassed her. According to that staff member, Reach's harassment started with flirting after practices and continued with him sending her explicit texts, including one stating that he wanted to 'tap that [expletive]'. Apparently, Sayo isn't the only payer who was harassed by Karl Reach, according to the staff member, but she hasn't commented on who the other players are.

Karl Reach is expecting a fine after an investigation by the Federation has begun, but he denies any wrongdoing and says that he is 'completely innocent', and that Matsuoka is making the story up to have an excuse to leave the club.

TS: It's been difficult for her and today she released a written statement on the ordeal.

Sayo's Statement: "Loftus has been a home away from home and I love living here. I woke up early everyday and jogged around the city I feel in love with. No matter who was quick to take offense to my words and how unstable the league was I just grateful to play a sport that my childhood friend Josuke [Ichikawa] loved for a living. I tried to push though the situation but what is going to stop anything when the predator is the owner...if I was to go anywhere else in the women's league I would be open to playing for Hawks United as I would still be able to live near the city I fell in love with and stick it to Karl Reach. However considering potential roster issues and I still have international career to think about, I probably will return to Kirishima."

HP:That's pretty sad, it seems she has been though a lot. I hope someone can come to her aide because considering the atmosphere some players may side with reach in spite.

TS: We can only wait and see what happens next, that's all we have time for today I have been Takeru Saotome

HP: And I've been Himawari ParkT in this edition of Sports in Review. KBC World News is next.

Tokugawa Treaty Signed
Français|日本語|한국어|English
Newsroom Today | Kirishinan Broadcasting Corporation

---

News Intro (ends at 20 seconds)

Bonjour et Kon'nichiwa, welcome to Newsroom Today on the KBC Network, I'm Jwa Ji Woo. Earlier today at the Mandarin Hotel in Ishikawa - Nihon, Dirigeant Arata Kasuga met with Nihonese Shogun Maki Kojiro, Nihonese Minister of Foreign Affairs Asuka Tokugawa, and Aravean Primarch Adolphus Stadfeld. With some of the recent issues in the International Freedom Coalition, it is of little surprise that the Dirigeant would look to secure reliable allies. Outside of alliance obligated alliances major Kirishinan allies included Zamunda, Mellburg, Bethuana Paix, Guadalupador, Brytene and Mugen Tengoku. With about half of our allies unable to aid in the event of an incursion, the Dirigeant sought to fill in some holes.

At approximately 06:00 Heiwa time the delegations arrived to negotiate the treaty. Despite a few ideological differences here and there especially on the social and religious end, all parties share similar views national sovereinity, free market and common opposition to communism as a preexisting bond. Furthermore as all three are members of the Santiago Anti-Communist Treaty Organization there is already a sense of familiarity. Some opposition already question the motive of such a treaty pointing to the fact that Kirishima has certain obligations that Aravea is not held to. Nevertheless CEO's like Chao Lingshen of Chao Bao Zhi industries/electronics and Léo Okazaki of Seongwoo Motors are optimistic at expanding their market as well as confident to remain successful in the domestic arena. Minister of Economics Yoga Kimimaro was also in favor of such a move.

Yoga Kimimaro : This treaty will help to increase Kirishinan trade especially to a nation that has been a difficult market to enter. It's may be strange that some of the things that the Nihonese have to offer are many of the very things we have to offer but for example Nihonese shipping and construction companies will be coming in which means more jobs for the Dirigeant's goal in increasing jobs in infrastructure. Also we have new exports to send such as Iron/Steel, Turbines, Medical equipment, Clothing, and Precious Metals such as Tantalum, Platinum, Palladium, and Rhodium. Things crucial to avoiding a total net trade deficit. This is all part of our Administration attempt to grow our market in a global economy the way we see fit.

The trend of economic focus has seemingly been a big part of the Kasuga Administration as of late following an increase of lumber imports as well as plan to increase Nuclear and Hydro Electric energy to lower energy imports. This also preludes a possibility of Kasuga visiting Divourga to go over presumably a formal trade agreement. However while there is a multitude of economic aspects to the treaty the focus was rooted in defense. One key standout is the fact that Nihonese insist it is placed in the highest level of Kirishinan favorability, an accomplishment only held by Guadalupador, Bethuana Paix and Mugen Tengoku. A move that Kokumin Gikai leader and head of the Ally Maintenance and Formation Committee (AMFCo) Megumi Ayanami says will be closely examined before any treaty ratification takes place. Minister of Defense Kuvira Beifong welcomed it for the most part.

Kuvira Beifong: I am more than confident in Kirishima's ability to defend itself from those who wish it harm. We are strategically in a great position but it does not hurt to add a deterrent to those who consider themselves our enemies. We have a fully capable military which will only improve with coordination with the Nihonese so that all our citizens can live feeling from the businessman in LaRousse, to the football player in Kariaku, to the steel worker on the island Rejima, to the priestess in the promiscuous forest of Yamatai and northeastern Zipangu. This is for all of them and will in no way affect our prior commitments to Guadalupador, Bethuana Paix and Mugen Tengoku. Our administration is also considering a separate agreement with Riysa as an attempt to reduce enemies in the region."

Full text of the agreement has yet to be released to the public and despite the close examintaion to certain aspects of the Treaty, it is expected to pass overwhelmingly in the Kokumin Gikai. Now onto our next story...

Dorian Grand Premier Announces "2050 Initiative."
Français|日本語|한국어|English
Newsroom Today | Kirishinan Broadcasting Corporation

News Intro (ends at 20 seconds)

Bonjour et Kon'nichiwa, welcome back to Newsroom Today on the KBC Network from our world studio in Heiwa, I'm Jwa Ji Woo. Yesterday at noon Dorian time and this morning at 06:00 Heiwa time, Grand Premier Saito Marcos announced his shake up to foreign policy that GNT media was building up to. At Avijanos University Marcos unveiled a project known as the 2050 Initiative. The goal of the initiative is a reshaped Guadalupadorian foreign, and domestic policy to achieve recovery and success in the span of 24 years. Perhaps the most shocking is the consideration of opening relations with Inyursta, a task that was impossible to Kirishima until recently.

"Now we go over to our KBC Dorian analyst fmr. Grand Premier Natalya Saiko...Natalya what do you make of you successors bold new imitative?"

"It's certainly interesting. I suspect that Grand Premier Marcos is going to do a lot of good in Guadalupador, and around the world. As he said, it's only the beginning. It's a humble beginning, but by 2050, I've got high hopes that my home country will be right back on its feet. On making an effort to appeal to other SACTO nations, specifically Inyursta is peculiar, however. I think that he wants to restart Guadalupador on a clean slate, which is admirable, and I hope will his efforts at trust building won't be overlooked."

"Thank You, I did find the direct appeal to Inyursta odd as well but do you think it's an attempt for SACTO nations to prefer the Federal Union to New Yama?"

"Perhaps, but I'm not too sure that's the only reason. New Yama is losing support by the day, only Gran Cuscatlan and Riysa still support Quardya."

"A scenario that I'm sure continues to further complicate international diplomacy. As usually thank you Natalya for taking the time to add a Dorian perspective to our broadcast. Have a good morning."

"Thank you for having me on."

Now some believe that the Federal Union is trying to reach out show many nations what they have to offer. With the recently signed Tokugawa Treaty, Kirishima would be a middle man should the Federal Union actually manage to secure a trade deal with Nihon. Making what seemed more unlikely in the past now possible. In his talks Saito Marcos also mentioned that Guadalupador would accept Aravean military assistance in securing the southern border with New Yama a move that caught the Ministry of Defense of guard. Saying "If the Araveans want to be part of the effort to secure Guadalupador than so be it. It does not affect our defensive operations in the nation nor our commitment to the north. Despite being unaware of these supposed talks I would assume our Aravean allies will coordinate with us."

The final piece of Marcos' foreign policy in his initiative was found in his second Pillar which was reaffirming Guadalupador's long-term friendly relations with Kirishima, and announcing his first state visit to Kirishima to be held in August. Marcos stated "Kirishima is our solid ally, and with my visit, I have high hopes that Kirishima, and Guadalupador will undoubtedly grow closer." This will be the first official Dorian state visit to Kirishima as our Dorian analyst fmr. Grand Premier Natalya Saiko was in exile during her visit. With nations close to each other such as this one can only imagine the range of things that will be discussed from Dorian refugees to trade.

Now for our next story...

Kasuga wins Election
Français|日本語|한국어|English
Election Day Special | Kirishinan Broadcasting Corporation

News Intro (ends at 20 seconds)

Bonjour et Kon'nichiwa, welcome to Newsroom Today on the KBC Network, I'm Jwa Ji Woo. At this time with the polls closed it is now official. Arata Kasuga will still be Dirigeant of the Taisuist Republic. Kasuga pulled in major support and historic large voting turnout on the islands of Yamatai and Iroshima a feat that was necessary to edge out Myeong Yi who came in a not too distant second.

While Yamatai and Iroshima prefecture where strong points for Kasuga, they were a major handicap for the Liberty Party candidate. In Yamatai prefrecture alone not a single vote outside Hyuga went towards the liberty party and even within Hyuga the party struggled. While a defeat in Yamatai was expected not many foresaw the extent of such a defeat. While Tachibana had a good economic platform his weakness was in Domestic policy specifically Environmental policy, Orthodox in Tokushima, prostitution, LBT rights, and pornography. His views on the SOA hurt him in prefectures neighboring Tokushima while the others mentioned had hurt him in Yamatai, Iroshima, as well as high population areas in Zipangu. Kasuga in debates often would criticize Tachibana often in debates and ads in a strategy to unite those who oppose Tachibana's platform under his banner. Kasuga also made sure to remind voters of there human duty to care for the earth of the Goddess and the source of Kirishinan tourism, an important economic sector to the nation.

Myeong Yi did well but Kasuga strategy against Tachibana helped eased the damage she caused him. Yi had often criticized his parties narrow and hypocritical views of LGBT rights. Saying rights to LBT groups were not enough especially with male and male relationships requiring at least one male to be androgynous or feminine in appearance to be publicly recognized. When Kasuga pointed to the Goddess not approving the rejection of feminine charms, Yi tactically called Kasuga out for hypocrisy in recognizing LGBT rights for Dorian refugees. Where Kasuga claimed he did not want to destroy what was previously established Yi accused Kasuga of vote pandering. Myeong Yi's biggest flaw based on exit polls was desiring an increased role in the IFC which has grown more unpopular and exiting the Iron Pact which helped Kirishima safely receive oil from the middle east until Kirishima can be more energy independent. Her flaws, her campaign of making good better which essentially was saying Kasuga was not a bad Dirigeant and primarily Kasuga picking up the voters the Liberty Party isolated led to her conceding the election.

Kenji Ishida came in last place he initially gained large grassroots support in Yamatai and Kiyomisu but Tachibana domestic agenda helped changed priority in those areas and with a smaller platform in comparison with decreasing relevance of views Kiriprog faded into the background. Ishida mostly attracted those to the far left whose parties did not make the final four, and individuals sick of events like Nosomo despite no Dorian group endorsing them. Kasuga has not yet given a speech as we have not reached media day but he has stated that "Before it was me carrying Kiryuin legacy and the status quo. Towards the end I started being my own person and made sure to restore Kirishinan culture. The people decided they like that and with that confidence I will be able to bring some further changes to this nation." Myeong Yi had the opportunity to appeal for a second round between Kasuga and her but decided to concede saying that Kasuga earned it and even if she did contest the results all of the Liberty Party would endorse Kasuga over her and that would definitely put him over the top. Now with Kasuga's madate reaffirmed we can only watch to see what's next. Now onto our next story...

Homofront threatens Kirishima
Français|日本語|한국어|English
Newsroom Today| Kirishinan Broadcasting Corporation

News Intro (ends at 20 seconds)

Bonjour et Kon'nichiwa, welcome to Newsroom Today on the KBC Network at the top of the hour, I'm Jwa Ji Woo. International terrorist group known as Homofront released a new video onto the internet late last night. In the video the group gave themselves credit for Edom removing the Morality Act and lectured viewers about how artificial Abrahamic standards are. The group also claimed that Christian religion is root of all discrimination in the world, and needs to be destroyed for progress. After a list of demands the group released the list of nation marked as targets. The nation listed in order were New Edom, Ghant, Nihon, Riysa, Kirishima, Common territories, Aravea, and Inyursta.

This comes as a surprised to many as Kirishima is considered by some to be leaps and bounds better than all the other nations also listed. Furthermore just like Kirishima's policy of avoiding middle eastern conflicts the Taisuist Republic has remained silent on Homofront. The only restriction in LGBT relationships exist soley for homosexual men where at least a single partner is not at least androgynous or a Dorian refugee, with those restriction being prohibition on public display of affection, entering the prostitution or pornographic business, and being wed in a Lake Shorian Shrine. All other rights and legal benefits of married people is granted which has some blaming other variables. Former Dirigeant Candidate and current senator Myeong Yi stated that this is a side effect of being a member of SACTO, and being threatened is a matter of collateral damage. She also had some blame of Kasuga's religious stance saying "He might as well give everything at this point..."

Dirigeant Kasuga held an impromptu press conference this morning to address the rising issue. ...I have no plans to discriminate against homosexual men nor revoke the achievements of the LBT community.While some nation seems to re outlaw Homosexuality and or treat an entire group of people as scapegoats, we as a nation are smarter than that. Groups such as these start small as terrorists can appear from any side of a political spectrum on any issue. They can not succeed unless they grow in size and enjoy the most growth when things become us vs them. If one treats a group like they are all terrorist, it will only create more. I assure that Kirishima will not pursue any isolation tactics. To those in Homofront, we once treated you the way we treated the IRA. As a regional terror group that we did not bother and they did not bother us. However should an attack on Kirishinans occur it just means another nation coming after you. Something I know you would not want...

There are plans for peaceful demonstrations by the Kirishinan LGBT community for the innocents that loss their lives in Finnburg. There were many LGBT Kirishinans who were initially anxious that they would be retaliated against but relieved at Kasuga's words. With the threat level increased and the warning by Kasuga it remains to be seen what will happen next. Now onto our next story...

Chaos in Shadforad
Français|日本語|한국어|English
Newsroom Tonight| Kirishinan Broadcasting Corporation

---

News Intro (ends at 20 seconds)

Bonsoir et Konbanwa, welcome back to Newsroom Tonight on the KBC Network, I'm Sugiyama Shinya. With Homofront threatening and terrorizing people in various countries tensions involving homosexuals has reached new threshold especially in right wing and right leaning nations. In these conservative nations homosexuality is seen as sodomy and in many cases something an individual willing chooses to be or in more rare cases seen as a disease that can be cured. In some countries local people are lashing out against homosexuals in the aftermath of recent Homofront activity and Bolrieg is no different. Our SACTO correspondent Park Dae Han was in Shadforad to cover what had occurred recently.

Daehan: Well I was initially drawn to Shadforad after the cause for the protesting occurred. We have a saved live-streamed footage of my report that was not shown live so I would be able to leave the country safely as a precaution. *Video Plays* "Hello I'm Park Dae Han with the KBC reporting here at Darnolf Square in Shadforad, Bolreig where thousands of people some who until now kept their homosexuality secret and other sympathetic people are here protesting. They are calling for the police to bring five unknown assailants to justice for the brutal murder of a gay rights activist, named Caldiv Judic. The five assailants reportedly dragged him out of his home, tying him to a lamppost and emptying canisters of bear mace onto his face and kept in that position for three hours being laughed at by his tormentors until they got bored and cut his throat with a hacksaw. These protesters are currently outnumbered by some counter protesters demanding that these protesters also get maced. A chilling threat that clearly shows how important this issue is for all parties involved. Right now however this Bolreigian man advise me to leave the area as towards the front of the protest there has been cries for Hegrod IX to be removed. The High King is seen almost as divine figure in Bolreig amongst his supporters and one can only imagine how dangerours this protest has become. We will have more coverage as we have camera's and the rest of our crew at the The Grand Resort of Starnalf IV Hotel."

*Second Video Plays* The lights are dimmed and Park Dae Han voice is hushed while screams are echoing through the night "I am here in the safety of my room at the The Grand Resort of Starnalf IV. My crew informed me that rocks were thrown at the police who in retaliation started to attack seemingly anything in the area of the protesters regardless of resistance. Even the counter protesters have gotten involved. We cannot visible show what is going on during a public broadcast but we will have an age restricted video on our website. We are literally filming and recording in secret as we do not want to bring any attention to ourselves. For unknown reasons the police has released people in the clutches of the mob and people are literally being butchered out there. You can only wonder is this what man is truly capable at the end of the day as you think of mass murders like the Rwandan genocide. It is moments like this were you truly fear you may get involved but as a journalist, you have a duty to inform people as to what is occurring in the world. Even though we will have footage for doubters to see what is going on I advise you don't, just the screams throughout Shadforad is nightmarish. This is Park Dae Han reporting from Shadforad.

Daehan: *Park Dae Han is seen in a studio room with the icon stating he is currently in Imgeum.* The ordeal lasted until the early morning the next day. Apparently the police have no plans to prosecute anyone involved with the incident and the bodies were simply placed in a large pit. I did not stay for the completion of the filling as I feared I would see someone I saw the day prior among the dead.

Shinya: Thank You for your report, we are glad you arrived home to Kirishima safely.

Daehan: Thank You.

Back here in Kirishima it would seem the latest incident is the straw that broke the camel back. After built up frustrations with a few SACTO members such as Cuscatlan it would seem the Liberal Union influence in the Kokumin Gikai and public opinion has swayed Sen. Megumi Ayanami to seek to reduce in which Kirishima is associated with nations such as Cuscatlan and Bolrieg. Arata Kasuga has released a statement reportedly asked for patience and giving the Bolreigian government time to respond to the incident however also said that an act of great evil was committed, citing that no matter how sinful one may seen what occurred Shadforad is unacceptable. Kasuga also stated that should no one be held accountable he will strongly consider approving legislation that limit the extent of his nations association with various groups. One can only observe how things will play out in the coming days. Now we move onto our next story...
