Stalemate: Dead End Meeting

Ampenan - After around 5 days of the bilateral meeting between Pemecutan and Cakranegara for Gili Anakan Naval Base status, not a single decision was made. Pemecutan delegation spokesperson, Eka Danupraja said that both parties were so clinging with their opinion and argument that no middle ground can be taken from it. It is clear that Cakranegaran government wanted the base to be closed as the country is now aloud to build their military. While Pemecutanian government insisted that the base have to be stay there to help the region defensing their area. Something that viewed negatively by the Cakranegaran. On the other hand a rally of protests have been held for several days in front of the naval base gate as the meeting was conducted. The protest is pro-closure as they demand the base to be closed and for Pemecutanian to get out of the region.

Pemecutan opposition leader, Kunti Devi asked the government to cut back the military spending. "We are living in a relatively peaceful region and in a peaceful era. Why do we need a lot of alutsista?", she said. She also pointed out that naval base is huge drain in the country's military budget. Logistic transportation is costly enough. She added that the government have to switch the focus to economy as the country is now entering a slowing period in their economy. And she pointed out Mengwi Agreement is the cause of it. Political expert, Jason Astaputra stated that Gili Anakan base is a prestige to Pemecutan and the government might do anything so it will stay there. It will hurt the nation's pride if the naval base closed down. Although he pointed out that the government needs to make another approach towards Cakranegara government. We all know that Cakranegaran view negatively towards Pemecutan from centuries back. And the sentiment don't fell down. Even Pemecutan involvement in their civil war increase the negative sentiment. Although from the 4 countries in Cendana Islands (Cakranegara, Rarungan, Toluiwa and Kencana), Pemecutan have a close ties with Rarungan and Toluiwa. Both nations are signatory of Mengwi Agreement. Astaputra highlighted that resolving the base issue might elevate the trust from Cakranegaran government and citizens. And it will change the view of the country in their perspective. Something that the government needs to be done if they want to spread their influence further in the region.

Baker Park will face World Cup co-host Electrum in the Cocoa-bo Challenge Trophy Final, with the winner advancing to the Eagles Cup 14 Championship against either Banija or Tumbra.

The Bees edged out Pemecutin in the EC quarterfinal for the second straight time, a 2-1 victory that marked the third consecutive appearance that Baker Park have made the last eight of the competition.

Both finalists on the Cup of Champions side have earned membership in the Eagles Cup through victories, while the sides meeting in Eelandii are both seeking their invitation through coming out winners over the last two matches.

It will be the third ever matchup, as the nations met in World Cup 87 Qualifying, with Baker Park winning 1-0 in Electrum, and 4-2 in the return at the BBP Stadium; four members of this squad featured in one of those two matches and three will start at the Eagle's Club--Zach Johnston (who had the clean sheet), Kelvin Buxton, and Nicole D'Amico, who came on as a sub in the second meeting, with Julia Edmonds available on the bench--with the Bees opting for the 'Ghost Whites' change strip for this match.

Cocoa-bo Eatery, makers of the chocolatey delectable known all around the multiverse, will award a year's supply to the player that scores the match winner in the CCT, an incentive that surely will be a sweet treat for the recipient in addition to ensuring a place in the Eagles Cup Final.

Oponia1. "Orchid League (Tumbran university grouping)." Accessed 29 September 2029. http://te.oponia.org/ency/Orchid_League ... y_grouping)

The Orchid League is a Tumbran grouping of universities comprising eight private research universities located along the east and south coasts of Tumbra. The term "Orchid League" is used not just to denote the eight universities within, but has also come to be associated with prestige, high social class, and academic rigour and excellence. As of 2029, its members include the University of Couno, Guildholm University, Straton University, Severn University, Coromandel University, University of Kingsbury, Alexandria University, and Bencoolen University. The eight universities were all collectively founded before the Tumbran Civil War, and all have at least one building on their sites that have been deemed "aesthetically or historically significant" by the Federal Heritage Board, and given conservation status. Prior to 1964, all the eight universities also had representation in Parliament through university constituencies.

The eight universities are all considered to be part of the grouping of ancient universities, having been founded before 1500. This serves to distinguish them from the "redbrick universities", which were largely founded after the formation of the Republic. Of the eight, Guildholm is considered to be the oldest, being able to trace its history all the way back to 1216. The term, however, only came into use in the 1930s, as university athletics competitions began settling into defined conferences. The term became formal in 1959 with the formation of the Orchid League Group, and the term has become shorthand for the eight universities ever since. Research conducted by the federal government of Tumbra has revealed that those who enter the Orchid League tend to come from higher-income families, and graduates tend to occupy higher-paying positions and positions of influence, stoking claims of inequality and elitism.

The constituent members of the Orchid League are considered some of the most prestigious universities in Tumbra and the greater world, and tend to occupy spots in the top fifteen in the Tumbran University Rankings. Typically, their enrolments range from about 7,500 to 25,000 undergraduates, making their acceptance rates one of the lowest in the country. The League's financial endowments are also some of the highest in Tumbra, with the University of Kingsbury's $24.8 billion endowment ranking only second to the Tumbran National University's $30.2 billion endowment as of 2029. The university with the smallest endowment of the eight — Bencoolen University, which was founded in 1492 — still has an endowment that ranks it amongst the top ten in Tumbra, with a $10.7 billion endowment as of 2029.

The Orchid League schools are known for their extremely selective acceptance rates, with acceptance rates as low as 7% in Bencoolen's case. Most students of these institutions are from the local area that they are in — meaning that with the exception of Bencoolen, which is on the southwestern coast of Tumbra, most of these students hail from the east of Tumbra. A substantial amount of the university's student body also comes from overseas. Tuition fees for these overseas students is amongst the highest in the world; with fees for Kingsbury's engineering program being set at $40,508 per year for foreign students without scholarships. Tumbran students, being covered by the University Grant programme, are only required to pay $200 per year.

Most of the academic schools of the Orchid League have become renowned as the best and most prestigious in Tumbra. In particular, Couno's Law program, Guildholm's Social Sciences program and Kingsbury's engineering program are consistently ranked as the highest in Tumbra, while all eight of the Orchid League are classified as having very high research activity.

Of Tumbra's thirty-two Prime Ministers and twenty-nine Presidents, twenty-five and twenty respectively were alumni of the Orchid League. Most hail from the universities' law or politics programmes, giving rise to the perception that those programmes are a birthing ground for Tumbra's future elite. The Orchid League's debating circuit has also gained renown as a battleground for future politicians; Straton University's debate hall, refurbished in 1909, was built deliberately to mirror the House of Representatives' opposing benches structure.

There have been plans to increase the number of universities in the league from eight to twelve; names that have been floated in the past include the University of Nantwich, the Tumbran National University, Dartmoor University and Marcato University. The four, which are part of the ten-strong red brick university grouping, have all refused entry, however; preferring to remain within their own university alliance.

Eagle's Cup XIV Final:
Electrum 1–1 Tumbra (1–2 AET)

Eagle's Cup XIV Third-Place Playoff:
Baker Park 0–0 Banija (1–0 AET)

After a suitably thrilling pair of matches, the top three teams are awarded shiny-looking medals, and the officiating committee is relieved of any obligation to blather on about the construction of the permanent facility or whatever because Tumbra are defending their title, and we await the inauguration of their new stadium whenever they get around to it. Thank you all for participating!
