Cousins War Slowing Down?

Image
Slaveskan Marksman poses for a photo in the Stravene front

The Stravene front has mostly settled down since the start of the war. Two forces have collided on the battlefield equally matched, Slaveskans with their firepower and NLFN Forces backed by the Aels Alliance. A stagnate stalemate war has been going on for the past few weeks with either side taking pop shots at each other.

Rumor has it that a ceasefire is in the works in an effort to deescalate the conflict. Earlier this week we've seen interregional and GDU dignitaries arrive at Camp Kresimir. Its not been made official but allegations say it could be peace talks or the ground works for a ceasefire. One can only hope for an eventual end to the Cousins War...

Slaveško Državna Železnica Seeks International Holdings

Image
SDŽ Locomotive hauling grain between Volja District and Stravel

Slaveško Državna Železnica (SDŽ), Slaveškan State Railways, is the national freight carrier for Slaveška and hauls thousand of rolling stock all across the nation nationally and internationally across borders. Until now the engineers, conductors, carmen, brakemen, track layers, maintenance and management have all been Slaveškan citizens. The SDŽ has expressed interest in setting up shop in Rhamosian & Emerstarian Markion territory as well as Žeknija.

The sudden interest comes at a time when the Greater Drejveškan Railway (GDR), a cross continental rail line, completed its first phase and prepping for its second phase. The first phase included mapping, inspecting, and maintaining current as well as potential new rail line. The second phase will see the actual ground work take place with new track laying and wiring.

The Emerstarian Colony to the east of Slaveška has expressed interest in having a northern line split from Slaveška, to the Emerstarian Colony, and ending in north west Treko. Žeknija, Danlina, and Phoenixia have also come forward for a southern rail line to be split off the main line. With plenty of interested investors excitedly eyeing the new boost in tourism and freight it was no wonder the SDŽ took the opportunity to get international holdings.

A spokesman for the company said that in the Rhamosian territory in Markion alone they were looking to hire 30,900 Rhamosian employees with another estimated 35,000 potential employees should deals be reached with Emerstari and Žeknija. "We could see a rise in employee numbers too as the GDR comes to completion..." the spokesman teased.

JVP Withdrawal from the Kamooko Accords

Postby The JVP » Sat Sep 12, 2020 12:04 pm

Image


"This is JBC, and in a shocking turn of events, the High Queen has pulled her signature on the Kamooko Accords, thus pulling the JVP out of the Kamooko Pact. A statement from the palace was given on the matter.

"Do to disagreements with the JVP Military Advisory border, The High Queen, having added in a pull out clause, has withdrawn the JVP from the Kamooka Accords and the Kamooka Pact. Individual agreements with KP nations will be reached between those nations and the JVP at a later date. "

"Does this move mean a new focus in the Markion Sphere or a withdrawal of the Penguins eye. Only time can tell."

Flow State Tours JVP

Image
Grunge Rock Band Flow State playing in a TV studio as a JVP Daily Show guest

The Slaveškan Rock Band Flow State is rocking and rolling their way through out the JVP after the front man, Ciril Slavko, was invited to an event in the host nation. It was there that Ciril met many new people and was in contact with a JVP promoter who helped coordinate booking venues. After the third venue the band caught traction in the region and venues began booking Flow State as the demand for more locations to be toured came to the promoters attention.

The band's most recent show had them star as special guests for the "Late Night Show with Aslan Varto", a popular Vedoric late night talk show which has claimed Vedoric's #1 Best TV Season and Vedoric's #3 Most shared TV Season. As Aslan Varto interviewed several guests, the second to last guests to be interviewed was none other than the band members themselves!


Aslan: "Welcome welcome! It is a great honor to have you on the show!"
Ciril: "Thank you thank you" Ciril said bringing his hands together in a namaste type fashion.
Aslan: "You've been on the road for what? Almost a month now it seems, how has the JVP culture and people been?"
Ciril: "You know its good especially when you know you kind of..."
Wolfram: "We're kind of a new taste it seems for the JVP..."
Ciril: "Right, and so at first you know the first shows we had were kinda small venues sort of getting feedback from the audience but man after those few shows it just took off."
Wolfram: *stroking beard* "Yea...it really did. Our JVP promoter started getting calls and it seemed like we were the hottest attraction as far as the grunge scene went in the JVP."
Aslan: "Do you prefer the bigger venues or the smaller venues?"
Vinzent: "Bigger venues means bigger crowds and of course more money for the band but small venues are pretty excellent though."
Ciril: *giving a thumbs up* "Yea yea yeaaaa....no for real though theres something about the atmosphere of smaller venues. Theres a lot less people so less stage fright. The acoustics are usually pretty good and every one is kinda just jamming out."
Wolfram: "Its almost more of a personal experience. Especially because you can interact with the audience a little better than at bigger venues. Dont get me wrong though...big venues are freakin sweet. When hundreds of people start singing your lyrics in unison its a jaw dropping moment and a true honor of any band to have fans sing their songs back to them."
Aslan: "I think you guys will have a fun time playing in the studio then?"
Ciril: "Studio? Like here...no no..we werent booked for tonight..."
Aslan: "Oh? Going to have to fire my producer he was supposed to book you guys for tonight."
Ciril: "Damn, its a crying shame..."
Vinzent: "Aslan, always passing the buck!"
Alan: *Chuckling* "No not at all, ladies and gentlemen give it up for Ciril Slavko, Wolfram Otso, and Vinzent Ulrik of Flow State!"

*crowd begins clapping and whistling*


Shortly after another interview was given with a JVP celebrity but before the Late Night Show ended with a bang! Flow State appeared as the camera cut from Aslan to the outside of the building and the audience began cheering. Vinzent started opening with a drum beat setting the tone for the song

Minister Drago Zevnik released a statement earlier today under the authority of Autarch Tennfjord. The statement’s topic was about travel restrictions as tensions have risen in the southern Drejveškan Region. As the flames of the Cousins War dies down, conflict between Tyria, Žeknija, and Phoenixia causes rifts in the local area and puts strains on national relations.

“My fellow Slaveškans, in a world of danger we must be ever vigilant to any looming threat. We as a nation must look out for our brothers and sisters. A figure was once quoted saying...a bomb knows no discrimination...in an effort to keep our citizens safe in these turbulent times, with information provided to me by the Office of State Intelligence, and under the authority of Autarch Tennfjord, I am releasing a statement on travel restrictions...” Minister Zevnik said during his televised statement.


Travel Restrictions

Tyria - All travel banned
NLFN Territories - All travel banned
Žeknija - Travel restricted to essential personnel with orders
Phoenixia - Travel restricted to essential personnel with orders
Green Union - Travel restricted to essential personnel with proper documentation
Stravel - Travel restricted to essential personnel with proper documentation
Rudony - Travel restricted to essential personnel on relief missions only


Travel restrictions do not effect trade at this current time

BREAKING- Thank you for tuning into Imperial News, we have confirmed reports from the coast that the 1st Kitzeh Fleet which has been patrolling the Strait of Zeleny since the start of the conflict with the communist forces in the south is finally moving. It's not known what prompted the fleet's removal from the Strait of Zeleny but it is suspected that the fleet may be heading home to rearm and refuel. Trekkish Naval Command has not given a comment on the situation nor has the Imperial Trekkish Government either. Everything is up to speculation at this point. It may be an effort to ease tensions with the NFLN as the GDU summit continues, but the govenrment is still not making any comment. Thank you for tuning into Imperial News.

Command General Marinkovič Raises Defense Readiness Condition

Image
Surface to Air Battery off the Bajveskan Coast test fired during a drill last year

After a teleconference with the Minister of War and the Minister of State Intelligence Command General Marinkovič raised the Defense Readiness Condition from DEFCON 4 to DEFCON 3. Operating under an Office of State Intelligence "Perceived Threat" Order, DEFCON 3 calls for a theoretical "prepared battle stations" situation. The Ministry of the Slaveskan Air Force (MSAF) has been put on Zulu Alert by General Tita Selimi as well as an increase in aerial patrols. Admiral Anna Larsen from the Ministry of the Slaveskan Navy (MSN) has tasked both the Northern, Southern, and Western Major Commands to increase patrols off the coast of Janissero, and the Bajveskan, and Antarkt District. The Ministry of the Slaveskan Army (MSA), under orders from General Besim Aganovič, have begun setting up Anti Air Command and Control measures in conjunction with the Air Force. SAM & THAAD have been activated at an 80% Mission Capable Rate per using organization and set up around the nation.

All four of the MSN's Sea Band Based Radar had been mobilized and configured in accordance with the "Perceived Threat" Order. Command General Marinkovič stated that at this time the perceived threat was merely an exercise for defense readiness though the official change in DEFCON status may say otherwise. The BC-1 Bomber fleet stationed in Janissero started sending off aircraft in an alleged exercise testing pilots and ground crew on their Zulu Alert capabilities.

BREAKING- In a stunning turn of events, the Imperial Trekkish government has brokered two deals with two foreign companies regarding military equipment. The first deal was struck with the Helsinki Arms Company. After receiving multiple complaints throughout the years about the uncomfortable design and its long trigger pull the TRk-762/B, it's finally be putting down to rest. The Trekkish Military Police had been looking for a small bullpup replacement for some time, however, things were looking quite grim until the Federation of Northern Peoples offered its bullpup as an option. As it stands, the Trekkish Military Police is set to receive to 2 million units from the Federation of Northern Peoples. No other information was given if this was only the only shipment of 2 million units. The second deal was made with Tonnerre Industries regarding the replacement of outdated Trekkish APCs and IFVs. With this deal, The Trekkish Imperial Army is set to replace its current vehicles with the Rhamosian Wallaby A3 APC and the Hyena IFV. The deal will see Rhamosian advisors at Trekkish gunnery schools to train and re-train future crews of the new vehicles. That being said, the Rhamosian government has saw fit to send over unused to APCs and IFVs to aid in the training. This will allow time for the licensed company to prepare its factory to pump out these new foreign vehicles.

The Tyrian Embassy in Kassau was attacked this morning | 11 confirmed casualties, 27 wounded so far according to Telroian paramedics


It is currently unknown as to who are the aggressors or how so many PMCs got to Kassau. Telroian paramedics reached the scene at what seems to be the peak of the fighting, and as we speak are only able to attend to civilians who managed to get out of the crossfire.
The Phoenixian and Telroian governments are working together to solve the situation. Tyrian representatives weren't available to comment.

Phoenixia Labeled A Rogue State

Image
Amphibious Assault Battalion (AAB) entering Camp Krešimir in Rokovo Island, Lietukro District, Slaveška

In a statement released by the Greater Drejveškan Union, the nation of Phoenixia has been unanimously voted out of the GDU. Complications started within the Union when the Phoenixian Government refused to cease operations in Žeknija despite being advised by Trekkish and Slaveškan Military Advisors.

In a report by the Office of State Intelligence the organization labeled Phoenixia a “Rogue State” and advised Autarch Tennfjord that any operations continued in Žeknija would result in political and economic backlash from the international community. A representative from the Office of State Intelligence along with a Slaveškan Diplomat made the case for ejecting the nation from the GDU.

An Amphibious Assault Battalion has been called in to escort the Phoenixian Diplomats to Camp Krešimir’s Air Field for immediate extraction. Phoenixian Marines have been ordered by the GDU to collect their belongings and conduct a formation at a specified rally point to be escorted to the Air Field. Failure to do so would result in Phoenixian Marines being forcibly removed and or extradited to Mainland Slaveška.

Its nice to keep some things of your life private but as the marriage date gets closer it was time to announce it. The ceremony will be private but dont fret...lots of pictures will be taken!" Katarina said in an interview for an article in a magazine. Since the announcement not much has been released from Ciril or Katarina.

For many it has been a long and grueling process filled with meetings, tribunals, and intense background and eye witness investigations. For many, they never thought they would see the day they would get to go home again. In 2012 the Second Nosikiv Border War kicked off after a Nosikiv Surface to Air Site misinterpreted its data and shot down an MSAF Ni-16 Aircraft conducting routine training 25 miles away from the Slaveskan-Nosikiv Border on the Slaveskan side. After a year and a half of fighting Nosikiv was annexed into Slaveska as the Volja District, appropriately named "The Rebel District".

Post conflict many Prisoners of War were released back home to begin the assimilation process into Slaveskan and Civilian life. Roughly 2300 POWs were kept in Class IV Prisons on grounds of preventive detention or claims of war crimes. Nearly eight years after the Second Nosikiv Border War, a verdict was reached. 2025 Prisoner of War inmates were set to be released after eight years of preventive detention. Undergoing yearly sometimes monthly OSI background checks and investigations to determine the inmates status. Of the 2300 POWs, 275 remain in Class IV Prisons. 260 POWs remain in preventive detention with an unknown date of release, to be determined by OSI. 15 POWs have been marked for execution by Firing Squad for their involvement in War Crimes. Most notably the Former Commander of the 497th Airborne Division, Radivoje Borisov.

Borisov's charges include but are not limited to - Depriving a prisoner of war of a fair trial, Issuing the orders of Killing a surrendered combatant, Ordering Torture or inhumane treatment of POWs, Ordering the Murder of POWs.

SENATE VOTES IN FAVOR OF TREULOCHIA: BILL SENT TO HOUSE



Image

Senators take brief recess to discuss the proceedings of the day


2021 January 16


The consolidation of the Treulochish regions of Geitland into a separate constituent Kanadorikan nation is an idea which has been floated around Parliament for centuries, yet it had never gained traction until November, when the Senate first formally convened to discuss this very matter. Treulochia, as the nation would be known, would be the first Treulochish nation in the world. Yet while its borders are currently absent on the map, Treulochia is in fact very real, as anybody who has visited Northern Geitland or Callaecia can attest to. These regions have been rich with Treulochish culture since before the first Eyjanic even stepped foot in Eporan during the Venesian conquests. While the influence of this native culture has waned with the rise and domination of Eyjanic culture to the south, Treulochia remains as an ethnic homeland of the Callaecian, Gwynochian, and Oirthirian peoples whose languages are heard and seen as much as even Hvidovian is.

Despite this concentration of Treulochish peoples and regional support for nationhood, the idea had always been rejected by an Eyjanic dominated Parliament and in particular, Hvidovian MPs and Senators who opposed forfeiting Hvidovian lands. Yet in 2019 a nonbinding public referendum came out in favor of nationhood. The Hvidovian National Parliament voted for the referendum in 2020, supporting the concept of Treulochish nationhood even if it meant Hvidovia would lose claims to northern Geitland and the Callaecian Islands. The concept was introduced to the Federal Parliament just months ago, however it has faced considerably more opposition at the hands of the more conservative Hvidovian life peers, at least when contrasted with the democratically elected MPs of the Hvidovian national legislature. Nevertheless, support for Treulochia remained in the the governing People's Party as well as the Liberal Party, with the Lord Konsul herself expressing support for the new nation. A final vote was made just yesterday ascertaining the Senate's opinion on the matter. Those in favor of nationhood won with over 60% of the Senate's support.

From the Senate, the measure heads to the House of Commons, where the Unionist Party, more critical of Treulochia than others, holds a majority. Yet even the Unionists here are at least divided on the issue. The Prime Minister, an Oceanian, faces opposition from Hvidovian MPs within his own party, despite the Hvidovian public's support of Treulochia.

If Treulochia were to gain its independence from Hvidovia, the Imperial Senate would be expanded to match the influx of Senators from the new nation. The House of Commons will be unaffected, as constituencies would be transferred from Hvidovia to Treulochia, as opposed to being newly established.

Tsarina calls for GDU conference at the start of the new year




BREAKING-
Following an inspection tour of military bases throughout Treko, Tsarina Annika Trurikovichva and High-Chancellor Vladimir Preobrazhensky stopped in the capital to meet with parliamentary members to discuss future anti-corruption bills and the future of Treko. After the discussion, the Tsarina took to the podium and began her speech.

"Citizens of our fair and glorious Treko, we have endured so much to get back what we lost. However, it is not over. There are forces at work that do not wish to see Treko and her allies prosper and grow. Of course, I speak of the Shogunate of Furusawa and the Federation of Novajinnsk. Despite our efforts to push back the Shogunate in the second great war, they still prove to me a thorn in our side and seek to continue their expansion into the heartland of our beloved Drejveska. Even now they prod the border and seek to find a weakness in our defenses, so they may usher in their new Imperial Age. However, there are nations who do not use open conflict to obtain what they want. The Federation of Novajinnsk is who I speak of. They subvert, bribe, and use subterfuge to bring neighboring nations under their sphere of influence before they absorb them through a ludicrous annexation process. We, the people of Treko, will not stand for either of these nations transgressions against us or our allies. Therefore, I ask that a GDU conference be created prior to the specified time to discuss matters of a Drejveskan nature. I also extend an invitation to Empress Vivi of JVP and King King Maxime Aurther Schonizel Du Neidestatt of Rhamos to sit in on the GDU conference for they too deal with the attempts from our enemies. Through our determination Treko and the GDU will persevere. We can bring about a golden age!"

23rd Paralemville Press Conference - 2021 Press Conference


The conference that took place last week opened with a grand reveal of Mikaylski & Aviram's Arms Manufacturing Division most recent project, the ADT-57 weapons system, developed in collaboration with Schwerpunkt Arms as part of the two companies' new partnership. Along with the new system, the partnership included a contract that allows M&A to produce several Schwerpunkt-patented munitions, which is thrilling news for followers of Danlina's military endeavors as this will give the Danlinian Defence Forces access to cheaper and domestically-produced heavy munitions without cutting on the quality they are accustomed to.

The next big thing revealed at the conference was the release of the TPV truck to the market, after several years of service with the Danlinian military. The Danlinian MoD, who originally contracted the design of the truck to be exclusive to the Danlinian military, has approved the truck's release to the public market.

Business insides today speculate on the future of the Ethrana, after the nations economy fall mid last year, triggering the many companies to go bankrupt over night and masses unemployment that followed. Even with the buy out of national debt by the Kingdom of Rhamos, and many JVP companies buying up controlling shares of Ethranan companies. Many insiders still fill the nation is only floating on a big thin bubble, and it's ready to pop.

in other news Pixie Icesys (PI) has seen it's stock jump 120%, after PenguMotors (PGM) bought out the company, and announced a new line of EV cargo vans. A move to corner the market on as the JVP Government announced a move to switch it's postal fleet to Electronic Vehicles, in the next few years.
