Coronation of Enríkos II of Cinyras

King Enríkos II was coronated in a lavish ceremony in Nikosia

^{16 March 2086 | Nikosia, Cinyras}

King Enríkos II inherited the throne in December 2085 on his birthday when his long-reigning father Loudovíkos after over a quarter of a century on the throne abdicated. Days ago in a surprise announcement the palace said the king had married his long-term partner and who would now be King Christaan.

Cinyras has an absolute monarchy, and the royal family is highly revered by Cinyroite and wields unchallenged power. The King has divine right to govern and in recent months of the young new monarch’s reign has been even compared to being divine in person as well as in position.

Cinyras also has strict laws, called Lese Majesté, which ban criticism of the monarchy. The laws have shielded the royal family from public view and scrutiny. King Enríkos has notably both weaken and strengthen these laws, breaking down the preverbal walls of the Palace of Geroskipou to show off the monarchy, quite literally in his case.

Enríkos, the play boy prince turned Sun King, has single handedly changed Cinyras dramatically in a short period of time from his sensual Palatial fashion, loosening of personal laws in regards to recreational drug usage, sex workers and above all, his use of enrikosvilla as the fortune maker of the kingdom. Along with a military victory in Makonia, the charismatic king has become beloved.

During Saturday's ceremony the 23-year-old king was handed the 2.7kg (6lbs) Helios Crown, or King Enríkos II’s Crown, newly constructed at his orders, which is shaped like the corona of the sun, which he placed on his own head.

Enríkos II is the third child and only legitimate son of King Emeritus Loudovíkos and Queen Mother Sara. He was educated in the Palace of Geroskipou and has been trained at the Royal Military College in Nikosia. He, after becoming King went on to act as an officer in the Cinyroite armed forces and is the supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Cinyras.

King Christaan, who is his husband, is a prince, son of the Empress of the Dutch, the former Viceroy of Dattan, a general famous for his stunning expulsion of the Duke of Alençon from Eacusia and is commander of the King’s personal security unit. He was made a full general in the army in December 2085.

The King of Cinyras awoke at 8:00 a.m. to the sound of a cannonade, he left the Palace of Apellaios at 11:00 a.m. in a white velvet vest with gold embroidery and diamond buttons, a cerulean velvet tunic and a short cerulean coat with satin lining, a wreath of laurel on his brow. The number of onlookers, as estimated by Palace sources, was between fourteen and fifteen thousand, many of whom had held their places all night through intermittent showers that cleared in the morning.

The ceremony started at 9 a.m. when the Synod procession set out from the Apellaios led by a bishop on a mule holding aloft the Orthodox crucifix. The Primate of the Cinyroite Synod, appointed by Enríkos in February, the Archbishop of Nikosia entered the Cathedral of Saint Andreas first, to the anthem Tu es Petrus, and took his seat on a throne near the high altar.

King Enríkos II and King Christaan rode white horses through the streets as part of the parade down from Apellaios before boarding a golden barge and sailing across the Sound to Nikosia, followed by a flotilla of ships and a single warship, the Enríkos II. In Nikosia they mounted a Dattan Elephant (gifts from the Queen Dowager of Kegara) and marched to the cathedral.

Along with them were Princess Adeline and Princess Daphne, and Prince Károlos and Princess Theodosia whose two carriages were each drawn by eight bay horses and escorted by grenadiers à cheval and gendarmes d'élite. Shortly before arriving at the square that held the Cathedral, the King and his husband once again changed his mount, riding a gold painted horse through his Arch of Triumph, honoring his military victory in Makonia.

The two parts of the ceremony were held at different ends of Saint Andreas’ Cathedral to contrast its religious and secular facets. An unmanned balloon, ablaze with three thousand lights in an imperial crown pattern, was launched from the front of Saint Andreas’ during the celebration.

Before entering Saint Andreas, Enríkos II was vested in a long white satin tunic embroidered in gold thread and Christaan similarly wore a white satin empire-style hussar tunic and trousers embroidered in gold thread. During the coronation he was formally clothed in a heavy coronation mantle of cerulean velvet lined with golden suns, the symbol of the House of Milanés, newly chosen by the king.

Christaan was at the same time formally clothed in a similar cerulean velvet mantle embroidered with roses in gold thread, the golden rose being the symbol of the House of Wessex and lined with ermine, which was borne by Duke Loic of Moudros, his brother Count Achille François, nephews of the late Cardinal Étienne François and Count Theofanis Manos.

There were two orchestras with four choruses, numerous military bands playing heroic marches, and over three hundred musicians. A 400-voice choir performed Paisiello's "Mass" and "The Ambrosian Hymn". The newly made Helios Crown was waiting on the altar. While the crown was new, the sceptre belonged to his grandfather, which in turn had been a gift from Philip II of Espana.

The coronation proper began with the singing of the hymn, Veni Creator Spiritus, followed by the versicle and several others. During the Litany of the Saints, the King and his husband remained seated, only kneeling knightly for special petitions. The King and his husband were both anointed on their heads and on both hands with chrism–the King with the prayers, "God, the Son of God..." and "God who established light over his people...", with Christaan with the prayer, "God the Father of eternal glory..."—while the antiphon Unxerunt Salomonem Sadoc Sacerdos... ("Zadok the priest...") was sung.

The Mass then began. At Napoleon's request, the collect of Saint Andreas (as the patron of the cathedral) was said in place of the proper collect for the day. After the epistle, the articles of the royal regalia were individually blessed, and delivered to the King and his husband.

The coronation of Enríkos II and Christaan differed in this respect from the pattern observed in other traditional coronation rites: usually, in joint coronations of sovereign and consort, the sovereign is first anointed, invested with the regalia, crowned and enthroned, and only then is a similar but simplified rite of anointing, investiture, coronation and enthronement of the consort performed.

However, for the Coronation of Enríkos II and Christaan, each of those steps was performed jointly, so that Christaan was anointed immediately after Enríkos II, and each item of regalia was delivered to him immediately after being given to him, a procedure that found no precedent either in the in the Cinyroite Ceremonial. This is probably partially rooted in that Christaan has not been titled as consort nor as co-ruler, but as King, though not the King.

For the crowning the formula Coronet vos Deus..., (God crown you with a crown of glory and righteousness...) was recited by the Archbishop of Nikosia while Enríkos turned and removed his laurel wreath and crowned himself and then crowned the kneeling Christian with a small crown, named the Hyacinth Crown (also newly constructed), surmounted by a flower, which he had first placed on his own head.

Enríkos’ choice to place the crown on his own head comes directly from the tradition in Derita, from where the House of Milanés originates, of Emperor’s crowning themselves. Enríkos was symbolizing that he was becoming king based on his own merits and the will of the people, not because of some religious consecration, a point seemed necessary for the agnostic monarch governing a religious people.

The Archbishop of Nikosia , limited in his role by the young king declared “May the King live forever!”, which was repeated through the crowd of guests. After the Mass was finished, the Archbishop of Nikosia retired to the Sacristy, as he objected to presiding over or witnessing the civil oath that followed, due to its contents. With his hands on the Cinyroite Code, the book of law in the kingdom, Enríkos took the oath:

“I swear to reign in righteousness and in glory in the eyes of the law, to reign justly as King and sovereign till my final breath, should my life be short or long, and to govern in the sole interest, happiness and glory of the Cinyroite people.”

After the oath the newly appointed herald of arms, Basile de la Tonneilier proclaimed loudly: "The thrice glorious and thrice august King Enríkos II is crowned and enthroned. Long live the King!" During the people's acclamations Enríkos, surrounded by dignitaries, including two foreign monarchs, the King of Espana and Empress of the Dutch, left the cathedral while the choir sang —"God save our King Enríkos".

Retracing their earlier steps from the Cathedral of Saint Andreas, King Enríkos II and King Christaan rode gold painted horses back to the Sound and rode the battle ship that bears the King’s name to Apellaios, where King Enríkos II meet formally with all the dignitaries of the kingdom and with several foreign ones, with the nobles of Cinyras swearing their undying and eternal loyalty to the King.

King Enríkos II, with King Christaan at his side, meet with King Antonio and Queen Adela of Espana and the two monarchs after formal introductions hugged one another as friends, the later congratulating the former and then the two signed the Treaty of Apellaios, diplomatically mark the eternal friendship between Cinyras and Espana, as the two nations have been friends for decades and shall continue to be for eternity.

King Enríkos II and King Christaan then meet much more formally with Empress Anna Charlotte of the Dutch and her husband, Prince Consort Henrik, former King of Espana, and the two signed the second Treaty of Apellaios, marking equal status mutual diplomatic, economic and military alliance between the two nations, as well as a ceremonial gift giving, the Empress to the King gave the two moons of Aitov and the King to the Empress gave an heirloom sword.

The King then made appointments to his Parlément, appointing his husband to serve as Chief Minister, making him de facto head of government, and making other appointments, including making his sister Minister of Palatial Affairs, the Marquis of Panagou to Minister of Defense. He also made the position of Royal Mistress, held currently by the Duchesse de la Vasseurs to the council as an advisory position.

Finally, King Enríkos II and King Christaan were presented Prince Charles of Scots and Princess Theodosia, who swore their faith and loyalty to the King, Crown and Country. The King then presented them with the Enríkos Coronet, the unofficial crown of the heir apparent to the throne. Enríkos, announcing that Charles de Valois, as the only other living male with blood from both the House of Reev and House of Milanés, through his father and mother respectively, aside from the King, that he is next in line to the throne.

To further formalize this, Enríkos formally adopted Charles, christening him Crown Prince Károlos of Cinyras, and made his sister, Adeline, second-in-line to the throne, officially allowing women to ascend the throne in the event of no further male heirs. With Crown Prince Károlos now officially the King’s son, and the need of heirs to have both Reev and Milanés blood, concerns over the succession have been put to rest.

An official paining of the Coronation of Enríkos II has been commissioned and is to be released upon completion, estimated in three to four years. A Commemorative Medal has also been made, along with many commemorative plates, silverware, and other such commodities to be given out. The King also gave 5,000 astartes to all adult citizens in gift baskets to celebrate the day, made a national holiday for the rest of his reign.

Enríkos popular has hit an all time high in the hours following the grand and spectacular coronation. In the capital and across the kingdom huge portraits of him can now be seen at many buildings and it was notably not made mandatory has it had been for his father’s coronation for state offices to erect them in the weeks leading up to the celebration. Civil servants were asked to wear cerulean- the colour associated with the king. Many ordinary Cinyroite will also be wearing cerulean to show their loyalty to the monarch.

The Petit Dauphin introduces Religious Doctrine into Schools

Primary schools shall be required to instill Orthodox teachings following the Moral Education Decree pushed by the Queen’s grandson

Joanna Zahay (@JoannaZahay1)
^{16 April 2086 | Gênes, Gênes}

As the Queen marks her 71st year of her rule, the growing influence of her grandson, the Petit Dauphin and the Patriarch of the Gênoise Empire, Abuna Demessie becomes more and more clear. The Queen, healthy and strong at 97 has seen her court switch over to the Orthodox faith tremendously since the Patriarch’s arrival in the capital three years ago, with her grandson the Petit Dauphin being the most fervent supporter and even being considered by some as zealous. The Petit Dauphin and the Patriarch have both preached out against the sinful nature of so much of the metropolis and have vowed to cleanse the nation of the evils that grip it.

The Queen has remained uncharacteristically quiet on the matter. And while she has reportedly dismissed some of the more extreme suggestions put forth by her grandson, including a travel ban for certain countries and reorganizing the social caste of the former shivos, she has allowed the construction of a large holy temple in the capital to serve as the seat of the Gênoise Orthodox Church as it grows ever more influence with ever more converts. And now the Queen has agreed to require Orthodox teaching in Gênoise schools, shocking many, so used to the secular ways of educational administration. This process shall be integrated into schools over the next ten years.

All students entering primary school in the fall will be taught the ways of the Holy Bible as part of their other courses and every school shall be appointed a bishop to serve as the ecclesiastical head of the institution. Students will also be given or deducted points based on their actions of morality, in order to insure that they are future upstanding citizens, kind, neighborly, holy and obedient in service to the Crown and God. The Petit Dauphin has been appointed to serve as the Crown’s appointer of bishops to Gênoise schools. He has promised that as his generation is much wealthier than his great-grandfather’s, his grandchildren’s shall be holier than his own.

New Law of Royal Succession

Hereditary Princess Antonia becomes the official Crown Princess under new Royal Succession Law

Okropo Bukia (@OkokBukia)
^{April 21, 2086 | Soikon, Imarati}

News coming from Sabch’os Sasakhle as the Head of the State Council, Daviti Zotikishvili proudly announced the King of Imarati, the 21 year old Kai-Kavus’ signing of a new royal succession law that formally establishes absolute primogeniture as the rule for ascending the throne for all of his descendants. This abolishes the old Semi-Salic laws that governed the ascension to the throne, where only when there were no males at all were women to be allowed to ascend the throne. The law is not retroactive, and formally applies only to the King’s descendants. The King currently has two daughters, Princess Antonia and Princess Helene. Princess Antonia has been heiress presumptive since her birth, but where previously if she had a younger brother, she would have lost her position, she now holds it firmly as heir apparent. The young Antonia is to be given the title of Crown Princess, that of the heir apparent formally instead of that of the heir presumptive, Hereditary Princess tomorrow morning in a ceremony.

Jahan I proclaimed Emperor in Derita!

Prince Jean-Christophe, son of Étienne I has been proclaimed the rightful Emperor of Dattan

Ginelle Ngani (@GinelleNews)
^{May 21, 2086 | Alençon, Derita}

Months after the fall of Dattan under the iron heel of the Prince Christaan (now King of Cinyras), it to many seemed that all hope for Dattan Independence had been lost. But hope remains, in exile, in the form of the young Jahan, the true 5th Datti Emperor!

Who is Jahan? Well to the majority of the world he is barely noted. A footnote. To his friends he has been known as Jean-Christophe. The only son from the brief marriage between Étienne I and Gencelina of Putraka. Half-brother to the power hungry and antagonistic Empress Anna Charlotte, Jean-Christophe grew up in obscurity in Putraka, Dattan until six months ago, when he and his mother join the daring march of the Duke of Alençon out of Dattan.

Having spent most his life at home and at Mathavana Vrajam Boys Preparatory Academy, he was the little known heir to the senior most branch of the Volonté Dynasty. But now, in their greatest time of need, he shall be henceforth be known as Emperor Jahan.

Dowager Empress Gencelina is suspected to have been the driving force behind the event at the Alençon Estate, where a handful of Datti expats and exilés descended upon the Château as she and the Duke of Alençon proclaimed that the eighteen year old Jahan was the true heir to the Dattan throne, having been appointed as such by his father in a secret will before his death. They declared Anna Charlotte to be a false monarch and a tyrant who had brought more harm to Dattan than good.

Jahan’s proclamation was attended by fellow royal exiles, Queen Sa’ea of Aogau and Princess N’alla of Kegara. Jahan has formed a small government-in-exile in Derita, though he reportedly has not been granted contact with the official Deritain government.,

While some will call Jahan a pretender and no doubt challenge his claim to the throne of Dattan, as a faith servant of the true 5th Datti Emperor, I call for all of my brothers and sisters on the subcontinent to raised their fists and arms against the Dutch oppressors! Fight for our freedom in true Datti fashion! Send onto the false Empress’s Viceroy in Pondicherri a thousand times their wraith and they shall break under us. For the Emperor! For the Datti People! For Independence!

The Queen’s Impassioned Speech!

Queen Sa’ea gave a brief speech seeking for help for her nation and people

Ioelu Naea (@IoeyNaea)
^{May 22, 2086 | Marsalia, Derita}

Sa’ea, the fourteen year old Queen of Aogau finally found an audience in Derita as she appeared at the feet of the Colossus of the Empire Statue in Derita just a day after attending the proclamation ceremony of her fellow teenage royal exile, Jahan of Dattan to give a speech to the Deritain people and in hopes, to the King-Emperor of Derita, who for the last months left his doors shut to the exiles who fall upon his shores.

The Queen spoke briefly but with youthful determination and a regal passion that moved all who were in attendance. The speech took place after the Queen was informed that Dutch ministers were meeting with Deritain ones over Aogaian affairs.

“Many years ago, Industrial Deritains sent over industrial men and women to give prosperity and civilization to Aogau. Today, the of the sons and daughters of those economic missionaries’ enemies are at your capitol asking you to undo your mother’s and father’s work. Who sent them? Who gave them the authority to break the decrees and statutes of Aogau which they swore they would uphold? Today, I, a poor weak girl with not one of my people with me and all these ‘Aogaian’ statesmen against me, have strength to stand up for the rights of my people. Even now I can hear their wail in my heart and it gives me strength and courage and I am strong - strong in the faith of God, strong in the knowledge that I am right, strong in the strength of hundreds of millions of people who in this free land will hear my cry and will refuse to let their flag cover dishonor to mine!”

The impassioned speech of the young queen is hoped to finally sway the silent King-Emperor of a nation that has only seen more and more exiles and refugees arrive in its borders in the wake of the Dutch lioness’s wars across Eacusia.

Daupiote Festival moves to Cinyras!

Palace of Pandaemonium

Giovanna Descristello (@Giovanna.Decristello.News)
^{1 June 2086 | Nikosia, Cinyras}

Frequent attendants to the Daupiote Festival, the ten to twenty-one day long Carnaval like event hosted by the Grand Dauphin every year for the last fifty years, since 2036, will be surprised to find that the festival will be missing from Gênes this year, and from now on. The Grand Dauphin, has opted to move the festival out of his home country to the Kingdom of Cinyras, ruled by his cousin, King Enríkos II. The 68 year old playboy Prince has long hosted the Daupiote Festival alongside his mother's annual royal pilgrimage to the holy sites in Roma. The event has gain much cultural fame as a staple of the Gênoise Dream, known for its extremely liberal values of passion and freedom. Whilst the Queen has long ignored the festival, her grandson, the Grand Dauphin's own son, has declared the event the "most sinful gathering of people in the galaxy" and has claimed those who participate worse than murderers.

It is this sentiment ushered in with the Petit Dauphin and the Patriarch of the empire and their holy doctrine that the Grand Dauphin has, in affect, been forced to flee the capital. This, compounded with the loss of his dominion in Eacusia to the ever expanding Dutch Empire, has sent him into the arms of Cinyras, where his cousin reigns with a personality that makes the Grand Dauphin seem modest in comparison. And with him, as well as his wife, the intelligent Grande Dauphiné, he has carried his entire court of Gênes to a new sprawling pleasure palace in the suburbs of the Cinyroite capital city of Nikosia, which he has, no doubt to the absolute horror of his son, named the palace of Pandemonium. Pandemonium, it turns out, has been under construction since 2084, suggesting that the Grand Dauphin and then Crown Prince Enríkos have been planning this relocation from the moment that the Patriarch had started to come onto stage of power in Gênes.

The palace, only mostly completed, is planned to be the Grand Dauphin's largest residence, and shall play host to the Daupiote from now on. Pandemonium was designed by a Cinyroite and Gênoise architectural duo, Demetericus Piagelios and Aiysa de la Casserete. Piagelios and Casserete have revealed that they took inspiration from the Grand Dauphin's lavish and exciting lifestyle as well as with the native mythology of Cinyras. The project is estimated to cost a massive amount of 760 million dérrals, with it being 1,960,000 square feet, making it one of the largest royal palaces in the world.

Along with the court of the future Gênoise King moving to Pandemonium, real estate agents have predicted a flocking of high ranking Gênoise nobles and tycoons in the purchase of similar Cinyroite estates , leaving their Gênoise penthouses for grand Cinyroite mansions. The Grand Dauphin's private secretary has assured some that he will spend at least three months in Gênes, though it is suspected that his absence shall in effect remove his supporters from Gênes, leaving behind only the aging and franking dying circle of the Queen, and the religious zealots of the Petit Dauphin. It is unclear how this may affect future policies of the kingdom and the empire, with the Gênoise's beloved Carnaval crown prince in Cinyras, and the Queen's pilgrimage reduced to a boring holy trip, one thing is certain. For the 50th Daupiote Festival, we shall party in Pandemonium!

Rise of Emperor Chanchai!

Prince Kong, self proclaimed Emperor Chanchai

Rebellion once again strikes in Seidang! The tempestuous reign of Emperor Liang has weathered over a dozen uprisings and rebellions since he took the throne as the first monarch in over a century, and has maintained his iron grip on absolute power through brutal force. Now however, Liang may have met his match in the form of his own nephew, Prince Kong Thu, who with the support of the 6th Imperial Division has denounced Liang as a weak and tyrannical Deritain puppet and without the blessing of heaven, thus making him unfit to be the Seidanese Emperor. Kong, citing the fact that Liang’s sons, Prince Quang and Prince Xuan are in Fontainebleau, having been held as hostages by the Crown Prince of Derita for the last seven years declared himself Emperor of Seidang, taking the regal name of Chanchai I of Seidang. Emperor Chanchai has demanded that Liang immediately sign abdication favors, handing government and military power over to him and the expulsion of all Deritains, Gênoise, Polongains, Hyrukians, Russens, Mantarans, Scots and Asakese from Seidang.

The Raider Wars Begin with the Battle of Vaskes Post

New England Death Legionary’s Clearing a tunnel during the battle of Vaskes Post

Today the New England frontier, which had been quiet for some time, suddenly erupted into activity and chaos, as several New England vessels made a warp jump to a system previously though uninhabited. The ships then engaged what is believed to be a large force of pirate raiders, both human and nonhuman alike, who had been terrorizing the area for sometime, following the period of lawlessness caused by the great disaster. The battle that erupted in space was fierce but short lived, resulting in a single crippled New England vessel, the destroyer Envisioned, for the destruction of all but two of the enemy vessels there, and of those two, only one escaped, with the other being subjected to a succesful boarding action.

This battle in space was quickly followed by a rapid deployment of forces down to the third planet in the system, a small, barely habitable world. The planet was then wracked by a series of short but intense battles, as New England Death Legionaries fought in close range, brutal tunnel fighting, working room by room to clear out the defenders from the pirate base. The fighting lasted into the night, resulting in 1,453 raider deaths, and 345 New English deaths. However by morning of the next day, the remaining defenders surrendered after a surprise tear gas attack left them unable to defend themselves from deadly plasma thrower and Beam Rifle fire by the Legionaries.

The captured raiders are currently awaiting trial, and it is still unsure what will become of them. However the message that this battle sends is clear, the time of lawlessness is coming to an end, and the Stellar Military is preparing to go on the offensive, to destroy this pirate threat completely, after which one can only guess what is to come.

Opening Ceremony of the King Christianos Gardens

The massive gardens are named in honor of King Christianos

Giannoula Eliade (@GianEliadeReport4U)
^{3 June 2086 | Nikosia, Cinyras}

King Enríkos II cut the ribbon at the opening ceremony of the King Christianos Gardens, constructed in honor of Enríkos II’s husband and closest advisor, as well as the chief minister of the kingdom. The event took place in a grand event with more than 20,000 guests personally invited by the two Kings for a garden party whilst the 100 hectare national park built on the shores of the Sound of Nikosia.

King Christaan, known affectionately in Cinyroite as Christianos has becoming nearly as popular as our dear Enríkos, albeit for different reasons, for his spartan no-nonsense manners, cultured personality and politician aptitude. It was to honor his great skill in service of the kingdom that it was proposed to construct two large public works projects, gardens for the ever expanding capital city and a library to be the largest on the planet.

Designed by Aggela Antonopoulou, the gardens which were originally meant to be simply placed in a square were, at the request of Christianos placed on the grounds of a planned palace and to be designed to incorporate the environmentalist ideals that have too often been ignored in order to turn Nikosia into an entirely green city. Mrs Antonopoulou has been awarded great praise for her designs and Mellis & Rellas Construction for their speedy completion of the project.

King Enríkos II and King Christianos’ nicknames of Apollon and Hyacinthus have leant their names to the conservatories in the gardens.

The ceremony comes on the down slope of a minor scandal over the ever growing distance between the rich and the poor in Cinyras. Whilst the chief minister has stood strong in keeping the privacy of politicians strictly censored for their personal protection, he has expressed the greatest desire that the gardens be opened to everyone. At the opening ceremony, he made a rare public statement, wishing for it “to unite all members of [Cinyroite] society, high and low.”

The Christianos Gardens incluse two conservatories, named the Hyacinthus Dome and Apollon Dome being the largest column-less glass domes in the world. The gardens are to be heavily monitored and protected from the wild enrikosvilla that covers the near entirety of the capital city. The two conservatories are reportedly the most energy efficient in the city and have set new guidelines for future construction projects in Nikosia.

King Enríkos II cut thé ribbon and lead the guests through the massive gardens which boast host to every indigenous Cinyroite plant as well as though from the Netherlands, representing not only the friendship between our nations, but the love between our kings. The gardens open in their entirety to the public tomorrow. Construction is set to begin on the Christianos Royal Library, the Gardens companion project later this summer.

Mikado of Angoros welcomes King of Cinyras

Go-Sakon, the Mikado of Angoros

His Excellency, the Mikado of Angoros and His Majesty, the King of Cinyras began a state visit to foster friendship between the nations of Angoros and Cinyras. The state visit will last five days in the capital of Yozakyo, more commonly known as Yoza, after the old kingdom and family that lead the unification of Angoros nearly three hundred years ago. The two branches of the Yoza Dynasty, the Bijaya and Choda, have ruled from the capital since 1798.

King Enríkos, who like the Mikado is the second ruler of a name and is named after the first ruler of his country, arrived in the capital city with his husband, King Christaan, meeting the Mikado and Kogo Yorsalo. The Mikado, the kogo, and the King and king of Cinyras were pictured together whilst the Angorese and Cinyroite national anthems played on after another whilst a crowd of school children waved the two nation's flags.

King Enríkos was give the rate of reviewing the Angorese Defense Forces, treated to red carpet treatment as he was lead up and down the court yard of the Chashaon Compound, the military headquarters of the Yoza province to review the Kōtaishi's Regiment, lead by the Prime Candidate himself, Prince Rogok. The King of Cinyras then returned to bow respectfully to the Mikado, who and the two, along with Kogo Yorsalo and King Christaan shook hands with and bowed to the Angorese-Cinyroite consular administrators.

The group were then escorted out of the Chashaon Compound as the Kōtaishi's Regiment band played. They then traveled via motorcade to have private meeting between the two world leaders. The Mikado is set to host a six-course state dinner for the King of Cinyras tomorrow night at the Kokya, the Imperial Residence of the Yoza Dynasty and the home of the currently in power Choda Family.

The Mikado hosts State Dinner

The Kokya of Angoros

The Mikado’s lavish state banquet for King Enrikos II and King Christaan got underway Monday evening at the Kokya, the royal residence of the Mikado and his family with the usual reciprocal toasts as a clutch of royal relations looked on from a magnificent table in the palace ballroom.

In addition to the Mikado, dressed in traditional Choda lavender, the Kogo adorned in a lavender and gold kimono and adorned in gold and diamonds, the Kings of Cinyras were joined at the white-tie-and-tiaras dinner by Prime Candidate, or Crown Prince Rogok, son of the Mikado.

The Mikado and the King of Cinyras offered toasts to enduring friendship and values between the two nations, followed by their respective national anthems. The Mikado was his usual sincere but restrained self in his toast speech; King Enríkos was much more effusive, especially about the Mikado: He called him "a stellar servant of Angoros."

"Your Majesty, as we look to the future, I am confident that our shared interest in the progress of our nations at one another's side, shall mark this only as the first steps in a centuries long friendship. Tonight we celebrate an alliance that will help to ensure the safety and prosperity of both our peoples for decades, and which I believe will endure for many years to come," the Mikado concluded.

"On behalf of all Cinyroites, I offer a toast to the eternal friendship of our people, the vitality of our nations, and to the long, and exemplary reign of Sakon II," King Enríkos concluded.

The Mikado’s chefs usually lay on a sumptuous meal, with many ingredients and produce sourced from the royal estates. The guests dined on shrimp and vegetable tempura, yakitori with lemon wedges, cherry sable with lemon verbena cream, assorted fresh fruits, and tea and imported petit fours.

The Mikado also presented the Kings with gifts. For King Enríkos, a traditional tailored handmade kamon kimono in the blue and white designs of the Cinyroite Royal House complète with a sun designed royal hair pin, a rare Angorese macaque, plus a three-piece Yazan pen set using an obsidian design that was made exclusively for the Mikado.

For King Christaan, the Mikado picked a first edition of the scrolls of the “Tales of Xa”, a collection of haikus written in the Eight Kingdom Period by poet, Gyongi Gyelleng. Earlier, the Cinyroite Royal couple toured historic Yakako Shrine, where candidates from the Yoza Dynasty are crowned, wed and buried.

Royal Christening of the Princess of Asturias

Adela, Princess of Asturias

^{November 7, 2086 | Aranjuez, Espana}

Today marked a great occasion and sparked a celebratory mood across the kingdom as marked by a lovely and simply charming royal christening of the infant daughter of the King and Queen of Espana, the new heiress presumptive to the throne. The royal christening was a traditional and solemn ceremony, noticeably small and charming as opposed to lavish as previous christenings have been throughout the nation’s history.

The heiress presumptive to the throne, the Princess of Asturias, Adela de Pearson y Borbón, Infanta of Espana, is the daughter of King Antonio I and Queen Adela of Espana. As the firstborn child of the couple, Adela is first in line to the throne. Due to the Fundamental Laws reintroduced by her father upon his ascension, Adela’s position can be displaced by any subsequent brothers born to her parents.

Infanta Adela is the first Prince(ss) of Asturias to be christened as such since King Pedro I, her granduncle eighty years ago as Princess Caroline (now Queen of Great Hyruke), and Princess Mary (former Queen of Scots) along with her siblings were not titled as such upon their christenings; no monarch since Pedro was born as Prince of Asturias. Unlike all previous royal christenings, Infanta Adela’s did not take place at the Royal Palace of Madrid, it having been destroyed in 2083.

In attendance of the christening was the Infanta, the King and Queen, as well as the infanta’s grandparents the Empress of the Dutch and former King Henrique II. Prince Rafaël and Prince Frederick, twin brothers of the King and Queen respectively, where expected, but neither were able to attend. Prince Rafaël, the former heir presumptive has returned to Lausanne whilst Prince Frederick was not allowed to. The infanta’s paternal grandparents are to be her godparents.

Gifts have been given to the young child from several of her foreign relatives and Royals, including her uncle, the King of Cinyras and her great-great-grandmother, former Queen Aura of Serbia. In thanks for these gifts, the King and Queen have sent out gifts to all the residents of Aranjuez as a form of celebration, and have announced the intention to start a new charity in the name of their daughter.

^{December 12, 2086 | Oskan, Nukasta}

Figure skating star and national sweetheart Hannele Hautala has delighted everyone with pictures of her newborn twin sons, Nicolò and Rayan Hautala. The boys were born at noon and 12:05 respectively. They are not identical, though they been stated to look ever so much alike to one another. The adorable little ones has bee rather unconventional names but we like to think they are as adorable as their owners. Quite interesting is Nicolò and Rayan’s royal parentage. Their father is the recently divorced and boyfriend of Hannele, Prince Frederick of Connuriste, brother of the Queen of Espana. While Hannele and Frederick have become partners and shall raise the twins together, there hasn’t been any word of a wedding date, though everyone is keeping an eye out that this may be the one for our dear Hannele.

Prince Frederick, the Royal Breeding Bull

Prince Frederick, just 23 years old, is father to 6 children.

Katie Howaden (@KTHowarden)
^{December 16, 2086 | Oskan, Nukasta}

There is no fear for if Prince Frederick is fertile. The answer is simple. Yes! Starting with his affair with Connuriste sports star Eleanora Schuepp with whom he had a child with in 2082, it seems that the prince has slept his way across Connuriste, Espana and now Nukasta. And whilst Frederick has worked hard, and spent fortunes to keep his private life private, in his wake he has left six children in the last four years from five different women.

Whilst our colleagues have talked about Eleanora and Oscar Schuepp, they are just the first in the list of Frederick’s conquests and progeny. Next came Alice Rüegsegger, who became his wife whilst she was already pregnant with his child in 2084. As Princess Alice, she gave birth to Frederick’s only legitimate son, Vigeli. However, almost immediately after, she discovered Frederick’s many, many dalliances and their marriage fell apart by Christmas.

With his marriage in a shambles, Frederick, as one courtier has told us, “took to seducing every woman in Aranjuez”, short of his own sister the Queen of Espana. And that he did. Taking particular interest in the ladies of his sister and the wives of the Queen Guards Officers, swept over two dozen women up into his lustful campaign. Reportedly the King of Espana had had on multiple occasions to speak to his brother-in-law to ask him to stop.

Minor crisis was sparked in March of this year when Frederick was discovered by Officer Nicolòs Rasgandas in the midst of the act with his wife, the lovely Rafaela Rasgandas, Lady-in-waiting to the Queen of Espana. Mr. Rasgandas, enraged, prepared and attempted to shoot the half naked prince and a chase brought out across the soldierhomes in Aranjuez, and it was only when the visibly pregnant Queen Adela stood between the two men that danger was avoided.

Court insiders say that the Rasgandas Affair was swept under the rug by monarchal intervention, and Mr and Mrs Rasgandas both refused to attempt it ever existed. This suspicious cover up however, is not an outlier, but it seems to be the preferred method of the prince. Throwing cash at nuisance causing ex-lovers has been his way of silencing them. This has resulted in many of his rumored liaisons refusing to comment on their relationship with Frederick to us.

Sometime after or perhaps before the Rasgandas Affair, and all whilst in the midst of the prince’s divorce, Frederick engaged in an love affair with Countess Agustina Carballar, daughter of the Duke of T’Serclaes. The love affair became uncharacteristically serious and supposedly Frederick proposed. Rumor has it Agustina accepted, only to refused, having changed her mind two days later. But it was too late, and soon she was pregnant.

The Duke of T’Serclaes supposedly demanded that Frederick marry his daughter, but now he refused, threatening to kill himself if forced to marry her. He’d already moved on to a new lover, Miss Amelia Gonzalez, a servant in the Aranjuez Palace. In the end, it’s been said that Frederick had to pay the Duke as much as 350 million pounds, and the Duke mysteriously gained the title of Duke of Gutiérrez. Agustina has disappeared from public life, though he has given birth to a son named Malaquias (third of Frederick’s children) and has married an unnamed man.

As the Carballars disappeared with their money and titles, Frederick and Amelia Gonzalez’s relationship become a toxic bad romance. Miss Gonzalez attempted to blackmail Frederick, leaked to journalists and at one point destroyed his car in a fight. All the while, Frederick spark a new romance with Hannele Hautala, a Nukastan figure skater. Miss Gonzalez was paid as well, though clearly not enough as she has continued to speak about her relationship with the prince.

Miss Gonzalez has claimed that Frederick is in love with her and that he is being prevented by his mother from marrying her. Miss Gonzalez gave birth to a son, Josias Manuel. Reportedly, Miss Gonzalez broke into Frederick’s Aranjuez home ans threatened to kill the child if Frederick didn’t marry her, by this time his divorce was complete. Miss Gonzalez however claims that Frederick had invited her and threatened her son if she named it after him.

And as Frederick and Amalia Gonzalez’s relationship collapsed, his new romance with Hannele bloomed as he invited her to royal and family events. The beautiful and glamorous Hannele was soon pregnant with Frederick’s child as well. Unlike many of his other romances, Frederick and Hannele have been publicly dating and now as they welcome twin boys, Nicolò and Rayan, into the world. While many suspect a potential marriage between Frederick and Hannele, we can’t help but wonder in that will ever put and end to the prince’s stud ways.

The nation has rejoiced as the Crown gave an official announcement for the birth of the King and Queen's first child after nearly ten of marriage. The pregnancy, which has been closely watched eagerly by the country after it was announced shortly after the first ever Gariana-Cinyroite state visit. The sudden pregnancy raised some eyebrows after so many years of childlessness and rumors of the rocky nature of the King and Queen's relationship. Some have even accuse the Queen, a Princess of Aurann & Naterasse, of having affair. However Queen Mother Margaretta, the matriarch of the Gariana Royal Family that such rumors were unfounded and the King and Queen are very much in love. The King's eldest sister, Princess Margaretta has also affirmed that such rumors are false. The birth of the baby boy has mark the completion of their family as said by the King, though many hope for more to follow. The birth removes the King's fourth cousin, Altsu Astiz as heir presumptive to the throne. Crown Prince Aurelaino is named after his 2 kings of Garianlles (His father Mikael and great-grandfather Aurelaino), 2 kings of Aurann (His grandfather Alexandre and great-grandfather Claude) and a king of Catorana (his great-grandfather Svante). Flowers and cards have been sent en mass to the palace, though the King and Queen have asked that gifts not be given, and have thank the public for their kindness.

Gênes and Mantara to deepen trade and defense ties

Ambassador Yohannas Ulso and Trade Secretary Hu'eu Kale

Joanna Zahay (@JoannaZahay1)
^{11 January 2087 | Gênes, Gênes}

Gênes and Mantara reached a summit deal Saturday on promoting partnerships in response to the fifth industrial revolution, especially on autonomous starships, hydrogen energy use and new age fishing methods. Gênoise ambassador Yohannas Ulso said he and Mantaran Trade Secretary Hu'eu Kale have reaffirmed the "deep friendship" between the two sides and had discussions on a future vision.

"(We) discussed concrete ways to take the two countries' relationship a step forward," he said. "First, (we) have agreed to strengthen future-oriented, substantive cooperation to prepare for the fourth industrial revolution era," he said during a post-summit joint press conference. The global starshipbuilding powers, old and new will work together to develop "future-type, environment-friendly autonomous ships" and they will also cooperate closely on new technologies for the production, use and storage of hydrogen. To that end, they have decided to launch a joint science and technology committee in 2088.

Kale shared with Ulso his country's experience in resolving the air pollution problem through cooperation among neighboring countries. "Learning Mantara's wisdom, Gênes will pursue environmental cooperation with neighbors more actively," Ulso said. On the occasion of the summit, the two sides signed a social security agreement for nationals working in the other country and a memorandum of understanding on hydrogen economy and low-carbon technology cooperation. The trade secretary pledged Mantara City's firm and continued support for Gênes peace initiative, according to Ulso.

"I am convinced that my trip this time will become an important landmark in relations between the two countries and peace on the Gênoise archipelago," Ulso said. He is the first Gênoise ambassador to pay a full state visit to the Arctic nation. This year marks the 60th anniversary of the two countries' establishment of formal diplomatic ties. "Mantara is a new and vital friend that shall prove helpful for Gênes in the future," the ambassador said. In the sphere of the new age sector of the massive fishing industry in floating fish farm facilities that will increase yields. This however will positively affect the environment as it shall limit widespread ocean effects.

Following the talks, Moon headed to Mahaulu, Mantara's second-largest city, to inspect the local Navy's 4,500,000-ton logistics and explorer ship, MS Akiliano. Built by Gênes' Rocheforte Heavy Industries shipbuilding and engineering company, the vessel is a symbol of bilateral cooperation in the shipbuilding and defense industries. Two-way trade trebled to around D618 billion last year from 2075, when South Korea signed a free trade agreement with the Arctic Free Trade Association (AFTA). On Wednesday another Gênoise delegation is set to travel to Imarati to continue the Gênoise Arctic nations cooperative trade and defense summits.

Contraceptive Bill goes before National Assembly

National Assembly prepares to tackle the national debt topic

Vikita Holkács (@VikitaHolkacs)
^{January 16, 2086 | Bledapestra, Polonge}

The National Assembly has a delicate vote ahead of them as it is time for them to decide on the controversial Contraceptive Bill that was proposed by former prime minister and leader of Her Majesty’s loyal opposition, the Progressives, Nickolaus von Hopfer. The bill focuses on the legalizing of the purchase and sell of contraceptives, which for many years have been illegal on religious grounds of morality. Hopfer has argued that this is archaic and dangerous for the health of millions of young people, can cause the spread of disease and has created a deep black market of the product. The bill, strongly opposed by hardline traditionalist Prime Minister Coanda, has divided the nation on unexpected lines as many of the more moderate traditionalists have sided with Hopfer. The bill will need only a simple majority in the National Assembly to be then sent to the Empress to sign it into law. The vote is set for Monday on the 19th.
