MUQADDASIA MAJALA


Muqaddasi President Murtaza Tamimi has overturned the membership of Texkentuck in the GCN, pointing out that it’s entry was highly criticised among other members and that such a controversial entry should have a vote on it first. “Muqaddasia is not against the entry of Texkentuck, and they are not for it either. We will abstain in any vote taken. However, we believe that because of current conflicts and relations with current GCN members, taking a vote first is highly advisable.”

OOC: One of my first news posts, hope it’s good enough.

Budget debate begins in Munich; New General Election likely

February 4th, 2022

MUNICH- Earlier this morning, the President called the Members of Parliament to the capital to begin the process of making this year’s budget. As we reported yesterday, there is a significant chance of the budget not being passed, which would trigger a dissolution of Parliament and a general election. This is because the passing of a budget serves as a motion of confidence in the current governing coalition. If a budget isn’t passed, it is essentially a vote of no confidence. This serves as a measure to make sure the government can pass a budget, to ensure that essential public services remain funded.

The Liberty Party is thought to be on the fence about any sort of progressive budget, much as they were last year. Last year’s budget was barely passed by the Parliament after 20 members of the Liberty Party voted for it to avoid a general election. Due to this, Der Münchner has conducted polls about who Trenakans would vote for in a hypothetical general election.


The poll shows a substantial shift in Trenakan politics since the 2020 general election. The Social Democratic Party would become the largest party in Parliament at the expense of the United Democratic Party, meaning that the Social Democrats would pick a President from their party. The Communist Party and the other left-wing parties would gain enough seats to form a government without the aid of the Liberty Party. The Conservative Party would be the largest right-wing party, making them the Leader of the Opposition, dethroning the National Unity Party.

This is significant, because it would be the first time in 22 years that a left-wing coalition would be in Parliament without the more economically conservative Liberty Party helping them. It would also be the first time in 22 years that the Communist Party would be in the governing coalition, and first time in 22 years that the Social Democrats were the leader of that coalition.

Party Name:	Seats:
Social Democrats	102
United Democrats	96
Greens	90
Communists	27
Conservatives	87
National Unity	72
Royalists	66
Liberty	60

Parliament reaches no budget deal after first day of debate

February 4th, 2022

MUNICH- After a new meeting of the Parliament was called this morning to finally make a yearly budget, no deal has been made, according to the President’s office. The debate stalled over funding for the military. The Social Democratic Party, Green Party, the Communist Party and most of the United Democratic Party opposed increasing military spending, while the rest of the UDP, the Conservative Party, the National Unity Party, Liberty Party, and the Union of Royalists wished for increased spending. The parties couldn’t come to an agreement over the spending, and that debate took up most of the meeting without other issues being brought up, such as police funding and road repair funding.

Even so, the President remains optimistic, according to his office. He believes that the military spending issue will be resolved in the first quarter of tomorrow’s meeting, and the other issues will also be solved, meaning the Parliament would approve the budget and avoid a dissolution of Parliament and a general election.

In related news, the Federal Election Commission has also announced that if a general election is to occur, it will happen on the 6th, and that they are ready to count votes.

Today a speech was made by Emperor Jackson in front of an international broadcast meant for the eyes of GCN member nations only. It was primarily a major speech regarding each of the alliances within the GCN and how they have each provided the foundation for the future of alliances. An excerpt from the speech is the following:

"We have united the most powerful and least powerful global alliances to forge one of the greatest alliances of modern history, one that can forge a new rail line that leads straight into a new horizon of a peaceful utopia. We've brought true democracy back thanks to ICDN, have a strong military thanks to IDSF and CP, can forge new relationships thanks to our more than capable foreign affairs branch, and have secured new lands and continued expansion beyond our borders thanks to the now-neutral CUSP. Without the bravery, honor, and conflicts between each alliance, we wouldn't be so strong, nor focused on the constant united stance this alliance has had to face. GCN is the next WA, and the alliances that have turned it into what it is today have already made sure of it. We can forge new trustworthy alliances while preventing corruption, allow for the creation of alliance political parties to finally bear fruit, create strong economies, and allow for a form of united global governance with free and fair representation to finally start. The GCN has grown so far economically and politically, and can continue growing to be a beacon of world security."

Breaking news!

Earlier today marked the start of Marajarbian election day, with everyone above the age of 18 leaving work and school at 11:30 AM to be able to place their vote at the ballot box. Since there is no longer any Marajarbian President, but rather Emperor Jackson, the elections themselves are limited to the Marajarbian Parliament. The Liberal Capitalists and Peace Patriots were both winners of the last parliamentary election, with the LibCaps holding a majority. Among them, various politicians, such as former Galapagos Gov. and ICDN Representative Fred Edwards, are participating alongside the Williams brothers, who are a major part of the Peace Patriots. Marajarbian conservatives from the MACM are also participating, but conservatives are not really popular in the Federation due to the recent spread of fascism, meaning that the conservatives are more than likely to lose. Should at least two parties be capable of beating the leading party through the formation of an alliance, that new alliance will win the election almost immediately! Electoral results will likely come in later tonight!

Final general election results in, exactly as exit polls predicted

February 6th, 2022

MUNICH- After Parliament was dissolved due to not passing a budget earlier this week, a new general election was held earlier today. The initial exit polls conducted by various news organizations (including Die Münchner) have concluded that the Social Democratic Party gained a plurality of votes in Parliament, which would allow them to nominate a president to be elected by the new 44th Parliament. The polls also suggested that a left-wing coalition of the Social Democrats, United Democrats, Greens, and Communists could be formed with a significant majority in Parliament. In opposition would likely be the Conservative Party, who would likely be the Leader of the Opposition, the National Unity Party, which would lose Leader of the Opposition status, the Union of Royalists, and the Liberty Party.

Those exit polls were proven to be extremely accurate.


The results of the general election.

Party Name:	Seats:
Social Democrats	109
United Democrats	102

JANPIA INVADES MUQADDASIA

WIP


Muqaddasi city Marsa Alam has been attacked by Janpian forces. The Muqaddasi defenders are fighting valiantly to defend their homeland, but the result is not clear yet. The Janpians had been warned to turn back, but they did not listen. Marsa Alam was bombed, and most of its population evacuated. Muqaddasi President Murtaza Tamimi called for the expulsion of Janpia from the GCN, saying that their “unprovoked attack” was proof of their bloodthirsty intentions.

Marajarbian Emperor Jackson has decided to visit the Marajarbian Parliament to make a speech about the GCN’s accomplishments on the world stage. An excerpt from the speech goes as follows:

“We’ve forged a new frontier, taking over the power vacuum left behind by the collapse of the ICDN thanks to the integration. The Global Confederation of Nations continues to grow in power, with new alliances being brought into the ranks, and almost 30 members and counting. We’ve turned GCN into a major economic powerhouse that continues to assist in the laying of major foundations to pave the way forward for new alliances in an age of world peace. Because of GCN, there is a temporary world peace with no new conflicts starting, and I, Emperor Jackson, have a plan to make peace permanent as the lasting legacy of GCN whilst allowing the alliances that rise from the foundations GCN has built to prosper and benefit extremely from keeping the peace!” Said the Emperor.

[Southeast Marajarbia]

Breaking news!

In another GCN related speech with another list of positive things the Global Confederation of Nations has done in an effort to secure world peace, Emperor Jackson, as well as some representatives from the Marajarbian Parliament that unanimously voted on the approval of the public speech itself, both Emperor Jackson and the Parliamentary representatives said the following regarding the upcoming GCN elections, the proposed merger between GCN and ACI, as well as the continued growth of GCN as a major powerhouse that provides millions of jobs to billions of people all throughout many of GCN's member states. An excerpt of the speech goes as follows:

"We here at the Marajarbian Government have been watching GCN election news closely. We approve of many of the proposals made by many of the representatives, especially representatives such as the Trenakan representative, whose home country helped lead the ICDN to prosperity and growth by being the first Security Council president. As such, the Marajarbian Government sends its support to each representative equally in the hope for a free and fair electoral race with tons of transparency and all major interests of all GCN member states continues to be represented fairly on the world stage. We also commend the attempt made to bring the ACI into the GCN, and would like to note that should the current ACI vote on the matter fail, it would be in the best interest of both sides to instead vote on continued mutual cooperation. The GCN is by far one of the biggest alliances out there, and has already been classified by many as the true WA successor, one that has everything for everyone and one where everyone is treated equally. GCN is a foundation for a new frontier straight into a near future that's close to an arms length away. From trade to a developing military force, the entirety of the Global Confederation of Nations might be seen by many outsiders as nothing more than some kind of autocratic empire solely due to the fact that we here at the Marajarbian Government founded it in association with many other governments of other superpowers, but that is not the case. GCN is, by far, a constructive attempt at a new future that actually works better than most alliances to the point where approximately 30 governments around the world have decided to fully apply to benefit from free trade and mutual defense."

Marajarbia Buckles, CADA Passed
By Mark Taylor
Earlier today, the World Parliament of the Global Confederation of Nations announce a three bill package of ratified acts, the Native Rights Act, the Monthly Meetings Act, and the Colonial Administration and Development Act. Earlier in the week, K. SCHMIDTMOUTH stated that he would not let the bill pass. However, the GCN announced that the provisions of his rage had been removed, so he allowed a vote. The bill succeeded, with the Parliament declaring it now being official alliance law.
SCHMIDTMOUTH was unavailable for comment, but World Parliament rep. GOODWIN state that "[he] is very pleased with the current bill." The Office of the Chamber Minister stated that it is a stepping stone in the occupation necessary to start democracy.

[Southeast Marajarbia]

With the GCN effectively becoming a massive empire of around 35 nations and several major alliances making up its very ranks, Marajarbian Emperor Jackson has decided to announce that his administration will be developing a Diplomacy and Democracy Plan with the Marajarbian Federation's Allies. The overall plan was to improve the democratic system to a way in which true democracy can exist and no corruption can ensue. In the eyes of many Marajarbians, true democracy is democracy that has no infighting, no filibusters, where a collective of politicians band together and listen to the people for once about the voter's choice for leadership, and where crucial legislation can be developed and ratified in the span of less than a month.

Another Marajarbian Plan was to effectively increase the GCN's power and influence due to the formation of new alliances at this time period. Especially with some of the most notable partnerships bringing in daily new recruits. The Marajarbian Government wanted to focus on improving the lives of civilians and protecting them, effectively creating world peace, while also establishing laws and laying foundations for new alliances with the best policies of the old. The Marajarbian Government believed that with the recent entry of the Union of Nobelia into the GCN, and with guaranteed access to the Nobelian Canal for all GCN Member States, alongside some of GCN's economic policies leaving a big impact, that the GCN needs to focus on more than just economy. The Marajarbian Government wanted to bring new alliances into the ranks, and ensure that future world leaders could leave a big impact throughout the world. With alliances such as the Anti-Communist International, which was a notable GCN Competitor, effectively collapsing and/or showing signs of collapsing due to major leadership inactivity amid other issues, the Marajarbian Government also believes the time is right to use the ACI's current downfall to GCN's advantage by once again attempting to ensure that ACI gains GCN membership in some form, wether direct or indirect.

The Chamber Minister's Office has declared today that the Chamber Minister, the Undersecretary of State, Global Senator Zonks, Global Minister of Labor and the Economy Ollyshow, and Chief of Olpenese GCN Missions Crankov will be attending the first GCN Monthly Congress. They said that it is important to the state that cooperation with the GCN expands. The Chamber Minister will speak on "Introducing Soritism (our brand of socialism) into the GCN."

It is unlikely that this delegation will attend every month, and it's likely only Chief Crankov will regularly attend.

TURQUOISE MOSQUE TO BE BUILT IN NEW NAJAF CITY

In New Najaf City, the meeting place for any future conferences in Muqaddasia will be the Turquoise Mosque, once it is done. It differs from a traditional mosque in that there won’t be any space open to the sky except the four gardens. It’s shape is also different, it will be in a ‘+’ shape, with the dome covering the centre of the cross and the four gardens surrounding the mosque. The dome will be made with an actual turquoise layer, with gold also being layer on each tile. The four gates will each be made out of a different material: for the North Gate, it will be out of black, twisted metal with bronze-coloured calligraphy engraved on it. South Gate will be made of silver and marble, and it will be decorated with golden Islamic patterns. West Gate will be made of traditionally made bricks, with prayer mat designs being put on it. East gate will be made of gold, and with turquoise calligraphy and embedded Dur al Najaf stones. All the gates will be five meters high. It will be completed in two years if all goes to plan, and it will be open all year long.

[Southeast Marajarbia]

The Marajarbian Government has expressed interest in hosting diplomatic negotiations with the Anti-Communist International to discuss how the ACI can work with the GCN to secure peace between both factions, or to continue to attempt to get ACI to integrate into the Global Confederation of Nations. This comes as plans are in the works to effectively implement policies and strategies that lead to world peace and lead to GCN changing the way the world is for the better, by finally becoming a utopia of peace and beacon of diplomacy. The Marajarbian Government has described this move as part of a 4 Phase Plan, with the first phase already having happened due to it being the creation and expansion of GCN to over 30 members. The second phase is planned to be a move to implement more democratic policies and elect capable leaders while improving the overall lives of civilians and having individual nations that are more than capable of having talented representatives capable of leading major alliances to greater prosperity. The second phase also includes stricter membership criteria, focusing on improving lives by continuing a focus on job growth, going green, etc, and creating policies that effectively start limiting the usage of WMDs throughout the globe and free innocent people enslaved who are not free. Phase 3 has not yet been revealed, although it is suspected that this would be a phase dedicated to ensuring that the GCN impacts the rest of the world greatly depending on its eventual fate. That is all to report at this time.

Marajarbian-Muqaddasi Joint Cooperation Events in the works!
-By Adam Richards

The Marajarbian Government announced today that plans were in the works for a series of joint cooperation events alongside longtime Marajarbian Ally Muqaddasia. Both nations have had an extremely friendly relationship that started with the Sapim Civil War, ultimately leading to the creation of the International Defense Shield Force after the events that surrounded the First Galapagos War, which ultimately led to multiple mergers and agreements allowing the Global Confederation of Nations to be formed.

It is expected that this series of events will specifically be heavily involved with celebrations regarding the history and culture of both nations and the people that live within both nations, as well as the contributions both nations had made towards the improvement of the international community.

Democratic Foundations Act officially passes! What comes next?
-By Harold Rogers

Earlier today, in a historic vote, the Democratic Foundations Act had finally passed and been ratified in the World Parliament of the Global Confederation of Nations. The DFA is considered by the Marajarbian Government to be extremely crucial to both paving democracy during a widespread international bipartisan move towards continued authoritarianism, as well as laying the foundations and setting up some of the necessary infrastructure for the world's next democratic alliances.

Ever since the days of the ICDN, democracy has been an important international strong suit. However, democracy does not come without flaws or exploitable loopholes such as the existence of the Filibuster. Democracy is something that, in the eyes of many in the Marajarbian Government, needs to improve. Alliance Political Parties, Cabinets of Advisors, and Annual elections similar to the upcoming Senatorial one for the GCN Global Senate are all of the necessary things needed to further improve and build upon the democratic system. Restoring integrity and faith in democracy is also necessary for the world to move onwards in its development, and that is primarily why the DFA was made.

Rebuilding this fractured world that we live in takes time and effort, but allowing the world and the alliances that make it up rebuild themselves naturally would further damage the international community and encourage human rights violations such as the spread of the slave trade or other events to once again take place. The GCN may not be the complete solution to a majority of these problems, but the GCN continues to attempt to complete its goals and transform itself into a true WA Successor.

GCN "On the path towards next WA" says Emperor Jackson.
-By Carl Williams

I have served as a legislator and diplomat many times throughout my long life. I secured some temporary peace with the WTA back when the UCA was still around, assisted in contributing to the Global Alliance, assisted my Meretican comrades in building up the United Federation and dealing with alliances such as NATO to allow for the GCN to be created, and have been serving as the Marajarbian Representative to the GCN Legislative Assembly for many months now.

The Global Confederation of Nations has seen countless laws passed, 11 Alliances united to fight as one, with power and influence just about everywhere, resulting in a supposed "fracturing" of the world. The GCN strives for peace and diplomacy, as well as for new alliances to be formed, making it the only true giga-alliance the world has ever witnessed in these modern times, as it strives and prospers through multiple methods in securing its position as a successor to the World Assembly.

The GCN has courts, democracy, is one of the largest modern alliances, and has developed itself into what some have called an "Empire". Alliances of the past have tried and failed to do what the GCN has managed to complete, which sets the scene, lays the foundations, builds the infrastructure, and allows for other alliances, such as the KTO to be against the GCN and its ideals. The GCN represents progress towards a better future, and according to Marajarbian Emperor Jackson, that is exactly what we will do. "The GCN will start progressing to a better future, improving upon or introducing new things, such as courts or the democratic system so that the world can finally improve itself. No one wants to repeat the mistakes of the past, which is why all nations in and out must work together instead of fight, to repair the world. For peace is what the GCN wants."

Hello my people. You know and understand everything. During our brutal conflict, out dear ally Muqaddasia helped us. They sent us aid. They sent us money. Today, they've been attacked by a coalition of foreign nations. We made an alliance. That alliance is made to protect Democracies around the world. And we will never let a Democratic country fall. Thats why, the Aursian Government wants to send Humanitarian Aid. We also want to send guns to help them. It might not be so much, but still, we want to help them. But you guys' say is the last order. So we have decided to have a referendum. You can vote yes or no there. If you say yes, then consider it done. If you say no, then I'll never say anything about it. Thank you.

Colonial Alliances: Their place in the world
-By Adam Richards

Everyone remembers the Colonial Union for Security and Preservation. A mistake of an alliance that, while full of infighting and political bias every now and then, was dedicated to one thing. That one thing was "helping" the citizens in CUSP Colonies get a better life within colonies. Did that work? No. There was no democratic system in the CUSP, CUSP constantly caused military conflict against itself by instigating war against other alliances, including the UDAF.

Colonial alliances such as CUSP tend to not be considered as good alliances, which is why the Colonial Alliance Foundations Act, a piece of crucial GCN legislation is now in the debate phase in the Legislative Assembly. The CAFA, which is a law that is extremely similar to the recently ratified DFA, would integrate GCN colonial policies, such as the annual referendum for independence, the Native Liaison Division, the Colonial Authority Brigade, the Provisional Council, and other much needed policies, to lay the foundations for the next generation of colonial alliances. Policies from both CUSP and the ACI would also be implemented, given both factions make up the Joint Colonial Affairs branch of the GCN.

The Kalisight Treaty Organization and why it is doomed to fail
-By Adam Richards

The Kalisight Treaty Organization, or KTO for short, is an alliance that has few goals in mind, with one of those goals being doing everything possible that is considered to be Anti-GCN. Now, while both GCN and KTO are engaged in a trade war that is bordering a Cold War, KTO does not seem likely to win. Now, why is that?

There are 3 major problems with the KTO. That being, a lack of goals, an undemocratic system, and individual nations of opposing ideologies in places of power. The KTO only is against the GCN because of the methods used by the GCN throughout its history of alliance acquisitions to build up the 11 Alliances, but it is only against the GCN. Nothing is in place to actually hold the KTO together once the GCN is no longer a relevant alliance. Second, the KTO states that the alliance is pro-democracy, but that is not what the truth is. The truth is that the KTO is run by two distinct dictatorships with a disregard towards the strong suit that is democracy. Why, these dictatorships have representatives that don't even believe in an elected Security Council, and yet every alliance that claims to do so would do the opposite of the KTO. Finally, the KTO has distinct dictatorships as alliance leaders, one being a very fascist nation and former GCN Colony known as the Galapagos, and the other being the Communist State of Janpia. What's more is that these two dictatorships, these two opposing ideologies, these two distinct groups, one far right and the other far left, which are both ideologically opposed to one another, unite under the goal of destroying the GCN once and for all. That causes a big problem. Infighting, Division, and War are 3 things that come from this, and that is why the KTO will fail on its own.

[Southeast Marajarbia]

The KTO: Unstable, Unhinged, Unnecessary.
-By Adam Richards

The Kalisight Treaty Organization, or KTO for short, remains an alliance run by two rival dictatorships of opposing ideologies, and has become more of a threat for the free world. The KTO claims to hate the Global Confederation of Nations for its usage of bureaucracy in its legislative and democratic processes, but that is not the case. In order to draft all of the documentation and legislation necessary for the GCN to fully succeed the World Assembly, the GCN requires Bureaucracy to function. For that is necessary in the modern world.

Another claim is that the GCN, with its annual democratic elections for the Global Senate, is ruled by the Marajarbian Government. That is not the case due to constitutional power limitations for GCN founding nations, and also not the case with frequent elections for positions of power, which a variety of members have already pledged to participate in. This is but another claim made by radical journalists from the nation of Janpia, whose government is extremely hypocritical.

The Janpian Government is very hypocritical. What readers do not know is that back during the Second Galapagos War, the Janpian Representative to NATO at the time proposed the idea of a third faction in the Galapagos, as a way to serve as a buffer zone between the Marajarbian-Olpenese Coalition and fascist terrorist group known only as the Galapagos Liberation Army. This makes the KTO an alliance that isn’t only prone to commence infighting, but also an alliance that likes to make lies rather than tell the truth.

And another thing, dear readers, is that a Security Council is not “open for all”. Rather, the SC is the most important body that has to be elected so that democracy can benefit the alliance the most. In this world, no government knows which government to trust anymore, and that causes the necessary chaos to make the KTO trust its own members, with their own opposing ideologies, to lead despite not being elected. That is not democratic, dear reader. Rather, it is far from it.

Invest in a GCN Colony Today!
-By Carl Williams

The Global Confederation of Nations has quite a few colonies with a high population density that require foreign investment to fully survive, which is why foreign nations are being invited to invest and set up shop in some GCN colonies. The GCN colonies that can be invested in can be found below:

-East Mystery Realms (High Population, Coastal area with various ports and maritime infrastructure, very developed cities.)

-Verir Islands (Series of Islands to the north of South Olpen colonized by the Olpenese and Marajarbian Governments during the Second Galapagos War. Very tropical climate, with tons of fruit and fish exports, including Coconuts, Watermelons, Prawns, etc.)

GCN: A brief history
-By Harold Rogers

The Global Confederation of Nations, in its current state, is one of the biggest modern alliances in the world, which continues to grow. From alliances such as the IDSF to the ACI, the list of alliances that have joined the GCN just keeps shrinking, and might just so happen to grow in the near future. United under the goal of establishing itself as a major WA successor for the Modern World, the GCN has an organized, powerful military thanks to policies implemented from the IDSF and CP, a dedication towards democracy and further improving the existing democratic system thanks to ICDN and others, a couple of interesting NATO policies such as the "containment" policy and the Atlantican Secretariat proposals, and the existence and creation of new joint colonies thanks to ACI and CUSP.

Alliances play an extremely important role in the development of the world, which is why the GCN continues to grow via the usage of multiple methods. Alliances are an important role in the world economy, which is why reform is needed. The GCN needs to further unite the alliances that make it up, and implement the policies of those alliances so that the necessary work can be done. Work for what, you may ask? Well, one thing that the KTO is not focused on that the GCN as a faction is focused on is titled "The Big Picture". Some may call this a NWO, others may call it corrupt or imperialist, but in reality, TBP is a massive rebuilding plan.

What do I mean by rebuilding, dear reader? Why, I don't mean the continued economic benefits of GCN membership. What I am referring to is a plan to ensure that the alliances and empires of the future gain a new opportunity to rise and succeed, for alliances are necessary in the world we live in, while the world we leave behind once big alliances such as the GCN must be peaceful at all costs.

Christopher Henry gives a speech in online,

The second election after the War will take place very soon. I, Christopher Henry, on behalf of the United Aursian Party led by Aursia, have come to tell you guys some truths.
Aursi has always been Pro-GCN. And GCN stands for Democracy. So do we. We want to protect Democracy. Janpia has always said they're Democratic. But if there's Labor Unions Protests, then I don't know where is their Democracy. Like they are supposed to be Socialist. And they're having issues with Workers. Then just tell me, what kind of a government is that. If the protesters were Capitalists then that would've been understandable. But a Socialist Government is getting Protested by Workers, the exact people they were supposed to protect. Then there's The Military State of the Galapagos. They're Democracy is number one, but in Worst Ranking. They are trying to invade Aursi. They are trying to send in their troops. I don't know if leaving troops in a Democratic Country is Democratic. Then There's Zarnicovia Nova. They're led by a Authoritarian King. I don't know if a Democratic Alliance should allow that kind of nations.
Thats why, in order to protect Democracy, in order to protect our nations Sovereignty, vote for Aursia. Vote for the United Aursian Party. If you vote for Aursia, you can expect to see me as the Foreign Minister of Aursi.
Thank you.
