USAN DEFENSE NEWS
JULY 2025
The Department of Media for the National Council on Defense & Security Integrity has announced an extended measure to expand the Red Sea A2/AD mechanism to ensure the independence and survivability of the Islamic Republic of Somaliland as it borders the Empire of the Galla, who recently sought to acquire and dismantle Somaliland. The new addition to the A2/AD includes S-300V4s, KM-SAMs, and HAS-250 Anti-Ship missile systems between Somaliland, mainland Yemen, Hanish Islands, and the Socotra island(s). The mechanism has been ordered to begin being put into place amid the recent establishment of the DMZ despite no official peace treaty being signed.
Grand Emir Abdullah II has indicated that the security of the Islamic Republic of Somaliland as well as the Arabian Peninsula is paramount to all policies within the USAN bureaucracy. With the formation of this particular A2/AD, the USAN would be operating 3 A2/AD mechanisms and systems with the intention of combining the 3 over time to a singular, jointly integrated region-wide A2/AD network that would protect and directly monitor the entirety of the Red Sea, Bab-el Mandeb Strait, the Gulf of Aden, the Arabian Sea coastline region of the USAN, the Strait of Hormuz, and the Arabian Gulf.

[sub]Grand Emir Abdullah II bin al-Hussein Administration | ABU DHABI, 2025 [/sub][/list]
[sub]| ALMUDIRIAT ALEARABIAT ALEULYA - المديرية العربية العليا | Upon receiving an invitation from the Spanish government to Madrid, the Grand Emir would humbly accept in his first foreign travel off the Arabian Peninsula since the formation of the USAN. Grand Emir Abdullah II has indicated prior to leaving Abu Dhabi that he is looking forward to negotiating and speaking with the Spanish government, especially their commitments to the protection of Somaliland from the Gallan invasion in addition to the providing of humanitarian assistance to the most stricken provinces of Somaliland. With public opinion of Spain receiving a boost, the Grand Emir found it appropriate to travel to Madrid and meet with the Spanish Government on the basis of solidarity for peace and prosperity in the Middle East, more notably the Red Sea zone of the region. As the stature of the USAN continues to steadily increase, having demonstrated a glimpse of its military capabilities, Grand Emir Abdullah II is very confident that by solidifying stable relationships with Madrid, the USAN's entry onto the global stage would be much more legitimate and based on partnerships rather than unilateral aggrandizement. After several hours, the private plane of the Grand Emir would arrive safely in Madrid, New Provenance. Highly secured by National Office of Internal Security Services (NOISS) agents and personnel from the United Arab Guard Corps, who are directly responsible for the protection of the Grand Emir and all high priority government officials, buildings, and assets. Wearing an all white military uniform, flanked with bodyguards and diplomatic entourages, the Grand Emir would descend from his jet and await to be greeted by the Spanish government. | [/sub]

Should I do Indonesia or if that Afghanistan-Pakistan spot is open, that would be interesting 👀

Afghanistan-Pakistan is open as that person went to Galla. I think Indonesia is open or it was taken a few days ago. No clue about Indonesia but Pakistan-Afghanistan is open for sure.

Someone new came in 5 days ago and requested Indonesia and has been silent since so in my book its still open.

IN PURSUIT OF THE ENEMY
Despite the crossing of the fleeing Resistance members into Mexico, the BEF (Border Enforcement Force) is ordered to pursue by the Internal Intelligence Service in order to not allow a single Resistance member to escape alive. Despite knowing the change of jurisdictions by crossing the Border the view of the Centroamerican Government is that the Resistance is a target no matter where it is located, even if such location is within another Nation. As such the BEF will give chase and engage with minimal discretion, and if possible kill or capture any fleeing Resistance Fighters.No doubt the decision was influenced by the historical slump in relations between the two Nations at the current time, driven by diverging National policies and Centroamerican assertions of Central American Leadership, coupled with intense combatting of Mexican crime gangs/cartels.
Crossing into Chiapas, the in total 40 strong BEF Force move past the Bodies and into Mexican territory, seeking to hunt down the remaining Resistance members and their Mexican masters. The origin of these rebels may not be known to them, however the mobile Force must push onwards, aided by active intelligence information from the IIS.

[sub]Â’Mental ResolveÂ’[/sub][/list]
TOKYO METROPOLIS, KANTO, HONSHU, Philanialle — AFTERNOON | 2:01 P.M. JST
[sub]PRIME MINISTERÂ’S OFFICE, KANTEI[/sub]
| After approximately 9 days after approval of your bill by both Houses of Parliament. According to PM’s approval polls among the general population, the age group that contributed the most to the increasing increase in the Prime Minister's approval rating for the 2027 General Election was obviously the elderly population . . . As everyone already knows, this Japan Health Care Act Reform was specially proposed to increase health insurance coverage for Japan's growing elderly population — That's what "leveraged" Suga's approval percentage, which was 80% last year, but dropped to 76% and rose again to 79% with this bill. We all already know that the prime minister's chance to win the 2027 General Election will be a LANDSLIDE VICTORY, just as it happened in the 2023 General Election — But the opposition is already wondering about "Prime Minister Suga's mental resolve" whether he can lead the Empire of Japan, adding that Suga will turn 79 in the 2027 general election. Prime Minister Suga had a medical checkup and his mental resolve is very good at his current age of 77 and will be okay at 79 in 2027, but from the age of 83 in 2031, Suga will have another medical checkup to see if he can continue for a third term in the 2031 General Election. |
[list]| [sub]YOSHIHIDE SUGA, The Prime Minister[/sub] | “I know that boy that the current leader of the Opposition is questioning my mental resolve and responding to. . . Uh, Hayato Satou? Is that his name? right?—”[/list]
| The PRIME MINISTER looked at TARO ASO. |
[list]| [sub]TARO ASO, The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance[/sub] | “Yes, I think he is trying to bring him down, questioning his mental resolve, saying that the Empire of Japan deserves a younger, more capable and inexperienced leader.”
| [sub]YOSHIHIDE SUGA, The Prime Minister[/sub] | “I can admit that sometimes my memory fails . . . I've already had the medical exam and my mental resolve is right at my age. . . I can reach 100 years old—haha.”
| [sub]TARO ASO, The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance[/sub] | “Yes, knowing our life expectancy is 87.20 . . . My mental resolve is starting to fail because I'm 85 and by 2027 I'll be 87. I think I'll have to leave Japanese politics in 2027 and give the younger ones a chance.”
| [sub]YOSHIHIDE SUGA, The Prime Minister[/sub] | “Yes, yes . . . we can even see that those Republicans did the same to President Biden, questioning his mental resolve — President Joe is 83 years old and I am 77 years old, a 6 year difference.”
| [sub]TARO ASO, The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance[/sub] | “Do you really follow the news from Washington D.C.?”
| [sub]YOSHIHIDE SUGA, The Prime Minister[/sub] | “Yes, why not? Taro— I also follow the news from Europe.”[/list]
| TARO ASO leaned back in his chair before answering. |
[list]| [sub]TARO ASO, The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance[/sub] | “Yes, it's always good to stay informed, Mr. Prime Minister, with news from around the world.”
| [sub]YOSHIHIDE SUGA, The Prime Minister[/sub] | “Exactly.—”[/list]
[list][list][list]. . .[/list][/list][/list]
| One thing is certain, Prime Minister Suga has become one of the most popular leaders in Japanese history right behind Shinzo Abe, but his 2 years in power are enough to show that Suga is capable of governing with his skills and strategies — But thinking about your likely successor for the 2031 General Election? Suga, on his 83rd birthday in 2031, could no longer lead the nation . . . Who would be a worthy, strong, skillful and experienced successor to occupy the most powerful position in Japan? According to social media, Suga's possible successors in 2031 would be Shigeru Ishiba (68) and Fumio Kishida (67) because of their skills acquired over the years, but Ishiba would be considered an "outspoken" successor. If Suga is no longer able to obtain a third term in 2031, Fumio Kishida will succeed him. However, Kishida will not reach the most powerful position in Japan, as Suga will be PRIME MINISTER OF THE JAPANESE EMPIRE in the 2027 General Election (2nd term) and probably in 2031 (3rd term). |

Red Sea Security Organization Established
August, 2025
_____________
[list]AQABA- Following the unforeseen and rapid destabilization of Somaliland, the world saw how quickly the Red Sea and Bab El Mandeb Strait could be placed in grave danger. Recognizing this, diplomatic and military officials in Baghdad immediately initiated plans for a more effective security framework for the Red Sea. Offers were made to several regional and regionally involved partners and drew a quick response. After negotiations in Baghdad, 6 partners officially formed the Red Sea Security Organization.
The Red Sea Security And Stability Accord was signed by Asharken, Alzarikstan, Paramountica, New Provenance, Metropolitan Francais, and Peking Zhongguo. All were chosen as nations that have significant security concerns and value in and to the region. Representatives from Nileia were also present, but suspicion of Baghdad and Abu Dhabi motivated SudanÂ’s decision not to join. The Organization will be headquartered in Aqaba in the Arab Union, with operations bases in Jeddah and Berbera, USAN.
The RSSOÂ’s main effort will be the Red Sea Security Fleet, composed of naval forces from each member state. The Squadron will be a security force operation in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. It will conduct regular patrols, monitoring and cataloging naval traffic both military and civilian. Regardless of nationality, vessels in service of the Security Fleet operate on behalf of the Fleet rather than their home nation. In crises, the Security Fleet could conduct naval peacekeeping as well as observation. In the event of an open conflict, it will provide escort security to civilian and commercial naval traffic. Member states will also engage in information sharing on the Red Sea to give the RSSO as detailed and immediate as possible a picture of current events. The Security Fleet is composed of 6 frigates, 10 corvettes, and 2 naval support ships.
Speaking on the matter, Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi said:
”The Red Sea is one of the most crucial waterways in the world. Without access to it the global economy comes to a violent halt. Unfortunately, its geopolitical situation also makes it currently one of the most unstable. Right now we experience a tentative peace. But in the Somaliland War, we saw the fragility of that peace and the ease with which it disappears. Clashing interests create a volatile situation, one that saw the flags of a half dozen navies occupy the same narrow waterways as bombs and missiles flew. For the safety and security of international political and economic stability, a concerted effort is needed. An effort involving the relevant parties, parties who are willing and dedicated to security in the Red Sea. These members are present in the Red Sea Security Organization. With it, we hope to instill confidence in the international community, confidence in a non-political, non-aligned security apparatus. The RSSO will not operate for the benefit of any one nation or faction, but for the collective benefit of the world, which so desperately relies on the now-quiet guns of the Red Sea.”[/list]

[sub]VTH REPUBLIC | PARIS, 2025 [/sub][/list]
[sub]| HELM OF LIBERTÉ, MINISTÈRE DE L’INTÉRIEUR - | The spreading 'South American Gold Rush' has made its way to French Guiana after the Columbus Mining S.A. discovered and assessed a new large-scale gold deposit alongside 3 of Newmont Gold Groupe's equally sizable deposits. The new Columbus gold deposit is said to hold approximately 26,000 tonnes of gold. The other 3 deposits controlled by Newmont have a combined total of 90,000 tonnes of gold. While the gold rush has had a somewhat late arrival to French Guiana, the territory has become one of the most lucrative locations on the continent, even beating out the neighboring countries of Suriname and Guyana. The French Government has moved to invest heavily in the mining of the gold in French Guiana alongside large deposits of Cobalt, Bauxite, Silver, and Platinum. The total value of French Guiana's mineral deposits remains undetermined, however France's dependence on external imports of such minerals exist only for surplus reasons. The French Government has pledged to reinvest a percentage of the earnings from the gold back into French Guiana. | [/sub]

|ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL COOPERATION TREATY SIGNED BETWEEN VIETNAM AND USAN|
Vietnam and Alzarikstan (USAN)have signed a new economic agreement, which will open both nations to new markets as well as stock opportunities. An expansive trade agreement was signed, with natural gas coming into Vietnam via USAN's shipping company, and Vietnamese raw goods coming to USAN via Vietnamese shipping companies to keep the agreement as fair and profitable as possible for both members. In conjunction with this, Vietbank has opened its first branch in Arabia, as an Arabian bank has opened in Hanoi. These major banks opening thousands of kilometers away from their home nations, marks a significant point in economic cooperation between the two nations. The Vietnamese government is enthusiastic regarding future trade deals in the region.
On the other hand, there are threats to consider. The region is still a hot zone for potential conflict, with a war being put on hold still very recently. To ensure safe passage of goods from Arabia and Vietnam, a political cooperation agreement was also signed. This entailed Vietnam publicly supporting USAN and its allies in this delicate phase in the Mid-east and Africa. While Vietnam is still in the process of modernizing its military, it hopes that political pressure will be enough to keep the region peaceful.
|Vietnam Jails Foreign Journalist!|
Breaking News!
The Socialist Republic of Vietnam, no matter how friendly it is economically, is still staunchly Socialist, with no freedom of the press, no freedom of assembly, and no voting. The nation does have a history of locking up political dissidents and foreign journalists. However, the nation may have finally crossed the line. Earlier today, German editor for the newspaper "Die Zeit", was detained by Vietnamese agents after he was discovered in a prison holding Vietnam's freedom movement protestors, political rivals, and other foreign journalists. Ironically enough, he was then jailed there for "breaking into Federal Property".
The Vietnamese government has already sent a message to the German government, letting them know they had found him "in federal property taking unauthorized photographs". As the government states they have released this information to alert Germany to its "spying", critics of the government are saying it was a quick cover up to silence foreign journalists from exposing Vietnam's extensive violations of human rights.
The Vietnamese government claims it has "no record of violating human rights, and that all imprisoned bodies are there for breaking federal law". It is yet to be seen whether or not this situation blows over, or if this may kill future cooperation between Vietnam, and the EU.

The Empire of Japan understands the USAN's position on the matter that we impose a Police State in Northern Borneo. I propose that we hold a Tokyo-Abu Dhabi Summit, to resolve these tensions between our nations and, if possible, return to the friendly relations that the Empire of Japan had with Abu Dhabi before this problem [...] Also taking the opportunity to add that this measure, that it was imposed by my Administration, it is for the safety of all citizens, including, of course, Muslims residing in North Borneo. Kantei is more than willing to put relations with Riyadh back to ally status, as the USAN is a great strategic ally of Japan, in order to resolve these differences that exist between the USAN and the Empire of Japan due to the issue from North Borneo [...] Due to these problems we had last month, this trip we were planning to Abu Dhabi was cancelled. However, we decided on August 3th that we would make this state trip on August 23th to start talks between Abu Dhabi and Tokyo, along with Vice Grand Emir Hamad bin Isa bin Salman Al Khalifa.

[pre]July, 2025 | National Election Distracting Administration (NEDA), Government District - Khartoum, United Federal Republic of Sudan[/pre]
NAJI DECLARES VICTORY
During the shortest administration served in Sudanese History with Prime Minister Zaim Binallah had been left in charge with leading the country for the remaining 9 months of Kiir's office term following his death in March earlier in the year, the Union must now hold its 8th democratic elections on July of 2025 amidst the eruption of yet another regional conflict in Somaliland between USAN and the Gallan Empire.
This election would be different however as this time, the seats within the Sudanese Parliament have been raised from 177 seats to 374 seats with the addition of 26 extra seats to Sudan from the 2023 elections followed by another 171 seats with the addition of the Ugandan population to Sudanese electoral system. Now with 374 Seats up for votes. The increase in seats had made it more of a challenge for candidates to gain the most votes for their parliament making this elections more competitive and closely watched than any other election before.
As four campaigning months have passed. Mohamed Naji Al-Assam or Naji as he's more widely known, youngest man to run for a high office within the Sudanese Federal Government, had spent that time heavily campaigning on the messages of improving standards of living, insuring a cleaner environment for the Sudanese people, as well as taking severe measure that would help the Sudanese homeland stay habitable in the face of climate catastrophes.
He has campaigned with the same message. The world is getting both hotter every year and colder every year. Soon Sudan might face more and further worse droughts and floods with every passing year that could render Sudan and the entirety of the African continent inhabitable for human societies forcing more climate refugees into more habitable regions. However Naji believes that with the record breaking cold of blizzards hitting North America and Europe annually followed by record breaking heat waves is enough proof that the entire planet might be rendered inhabitable in the future. In which he had also promised further international co-operation and partnerships in the name of a greener future. He believes that the climate crisis would hand Sudan longer droughts followed by more floods strong enough to destroy cities of along the Nile valley. He has campaigned with a Green Future and Green Sudan in mind sloganed, "The Land Of Green Opportunities" (LOGO)
The great opponents to the Libs, the DUP has once again nominated Hatim Al-Sir with the LIBMIS campaign slogan, that being Let It Be Made In Sudan, a slogan popular among Sudanese small business owners and Sudanese companies hoping to see an era of Sudanese production and manufacturing. The party has stuck with the former 2 term Prime Minister in hopes that Al-Sir would be granted a 3rd term as Prime Minister. Al-Sir has however alluded at the possibility of quitting as head of the Democratic Unionist Party if the Party fails to gain the majority of seats in favour of allowing younger candidates as the new face of the country. Meanwhile the 3rd largest party campaigning as the 3rd Choice has heavily campaigned on the idea of National Supremacy and the protection of the Sudanese Family and Identity. The 3rd Choice Party, known as the National Conservative Front Party (NCFP) lead by Osman Mosley, had also been gaining a lot of momentum across border states and districts and heavily agricultural and rural districts within Sudan, the Party had also grabbed the attention and support of Black Supremacist and Far Right Sudanese Nationalists. The NCFP had especially gained a ton of support from Darfur given the memory of the Chad war and the incompetence of the SLAF under the late Prime Minister Kiir. It is a guarntee that the last two Liberal Seats in Darfur might be entirely lost to the NCFP as Kiir's Public Apology controversy has certainly become a driving force for the sudden shift in voters in Darfur from a Liberal One to a Nationalist one. Other DUP districts in Darfur could also be lost to the NCFP as the Party had focused it's campaigning in Uganda along with Liberals as well.

[pre]July, 2025 | Rosemary Hotel in Bahri, Northern Khartoum - Khartoum, United Federal Republic of Sudan[/pre]
With the results announced by the NEDA, Sudan has chosen the youngest man to become leader of the nation and a leader of Sudan's newly founded union as he crosses the finishing line for the race of Prime Minister of the Sudanese Republic along with his Ugandan running mate Bobi Wine as Deputy Minister. Crowds at his rally outside the Rosemary Hotel in Bahri, also known as Khartoum, have celebrated and cheered for Sudan's soon to be youngest ruler. Naji too would make an appearance in front of the crowd as he celebrates with them and thanks them and the country for the chance of leading given to him by the majority of the democratic system.
Soon, political rival Hatim Al-Sir would call him to concede the election and then congratulate Naji on his victory followed by a congratulatory call from Osman Mosley and other members of the Sudanese Parliament and then from Prime Minister Binallah himself. Though Naji might find challenges given the evenly spilt number of states that both the DUP and Libs won he might find it easier to gain compromises amongst Southern and Ugandan MPs.
Thanks to the addition of Uganda into the Union, the 3 largest parties have all gained additional seats within the Sudanese Parliament as well as votes as the Liberals celebrate with around 40 million vote. However more of a sad news to the former great party of resistance, the National Umma Party had lost seats with only 4 remaining in the far reaches religious communities of Khartoum, Kassala, and Darfur. With the death of Sadiq Al-Mahdi to Covid-19 in 2020 it seems that the Party has nowhere to go but the textbooks of history as their votes lessen with ever election. The same could be said about the Ba'athist Party as the idea of Arab Nationalism and Socialism becomes rapidly replaced by the growing moment of Abdulrahmanism in throughout the Arab world and has started to grow within Sudan as well. Jadin may soon be faced with reforming his party to match the political ideologies of those that currently rule USAN (Alzarikstan) and The AUFC (Asharken).
With the elections now concluded, Naji had promised the Sudanese public that he will insure the passing of the Nile Valley Initiative that had been so far put aside by Parliament since Kiir's beginning years in office. Naji had also praised Prime Minister Binallah's task of kick starting electronic and tech jobs within Sudan thanks to the economic deals drafted between Sudan and Vietnam (Youkraneana). Naji says that he will be looking forward to creating more open relations and co-operation between Sudan and her African Neighbours as he believes Africa must open trade and communication amongst its nations in order to further advance and progress the continent to make the next century an African century.

Wile Janusz Korwin was writing up his plans for the Polish nation, he felt a strange pain in his chest and called out for his wife Dominika Sibiga to call 112. She did so and Korwin was brought to the hospital and was diagnosed with having a sudden massive heart attack and sent straight to the ICU after passing out. Sibiga had been asked if his will had been updated and the sort, and she said that his assets would be sold off to fund the Warsaw Uprising Museum, Muzeum Powstania Warszawskiego. A couple hrs later, and Korwin would be pronounced dead and buried in his family plot. Far right Poles would mourn his loss while the rest of Poland simply shrugged it off offering bare bones condolences to his family. In other news, Prime Minister Moraweicki would request to visit La Plata and Mexico to discuss its Latin American ties, he also would stop in Chicago and Detroit to meet with Polish Americans and to attend a banquet in each city. Moraweicki then would head on to DC to reaffirm the ties between Poland and the US. His last stop on his trip would be to Italy to discuss agricultural ties. He'd then return home to Poland to begin work on economic improvements in the tech and financial centres.

Grand Emir Abdullah II bin al-Hussein welcomed in Madrid for landmark diplomatic meeting with Spain's PM
| The warm summer air quietly flew about the clear and sunny sky above Madrid as an armed government motorcade, composed of seven shiny black SUVs outfitted with bulletproof glass and an explosive-resistant underbelly, halted on the grey tarmac of Madrid-Barajas International Airport. A long red carpet had been laid out from where a flight of airstairs sat, linking the door of the Grand Emir of the USAN's jet to the sovereign ground of Spain. Lining the carpet were members of the Guardia Civil, clad in their military parade outfits and grasping not guns, but flags of the Kingdom of Spain and USAN in an alternating manner. Prime Minister Augustina Torres stood at the opposite end of the carpet, while Her Royal Majesty Queen Leonor of Spain stood in front of her, dressed in a white dress and clutching her purse. As the Grand Emir stepped of the jet, the Queen and the Prime Minister greeted him and his entourage. |
[list]| Her Royal Majesty Queen Leonor, Queen of Spain | "Grand Emir Abdullah II bin al-Hussein. It is a great pleasure to finally meet you. I look forward to establishing close and secure diplomatic and economic ties between the USAN and the Kingdom of Spain. Your presence here in Madrid is greatly appreciated, and I thank you for taking the time to come to our great nation."[/list]
| The Prime Minister of Spain, Augustina Torres, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Arancha Gonzalez Laya, would also exchange greetings with the Grand Emir. Following this, the Grand Emir, the Prime Minister, and the Foreign Minister enters the armed motorcade awaiting them. The Prime Minister of Spain will be overseeing the diplomatic talks with the Grand Emir of USAN. With that, the motorcade revs up and drives away towards the Palacio de Zarzuela, the official residence of the Royal Family of Spain. |

OUTCRY AS COMMITTEE REPORT ALLEGES NORSE MISMANAGEMENT OF KVEN PEOPLE
[list][sup]HEAVY WORDS WITH LIGHT EVIDENCE
FINLAND—SUMMER 2025[/sup][/list]
Though the Finnish Parliament is not in session during the months of July and August, the Finnish Committee of Cultural Survival continued work in the off-season at the encouragement of Prime Minister Orpo, surveying the intense array of cultural programs set in place in the spring and examining room for new ones. Such work, pursuing the Committee's purpose of enriching and protecting the cultures of the Finno-Ugric people of northern Europe, would ordinarily be routine. One report of the Committee, however, stirred controversy on its release to the Committee's website in late August. "The Germanophilic government on Finland's north border," opened a key section of the publication, "has not only neglected but truly shunned the agreements reached between Finland and its neighbor state in the spring." Though not citing any evidence besides "international observers in Finnmark", the Committee stated that Finno-Ugric culture is "thoroughly assailed" in the Kingdom of Norr and suggested immediate "action" on behalf of the Finno-Ugric—particularly the Kven—people there.
Reactions to the statement came quickly. Sanna Marin of the Social Democrats decried the statement, claiming that the "radicals of the Committee" had flimsy concrete evidence of the mismanagement of the Finno-Ugric peoples it alleged. Marin was in an unfortunate minority, however—the report seemed to be widely held as credible due to the perceived infallibility of government sources. Marin and her Social Democratic party-fellows were quick to question who could have allowed or encouraged such a document to be composed, and what fact-checkers had authorized its release—such questions pervaded much of social media. Much more attractive to the lethargic voter, though, was the fiery rhetoric of Finns Party demagogue Alvi Karvonen, who immediately siezed on the opportunity for another radical statement: that the Finno-Ugric people of Norr were so thoroughly mismanaged that authority over them should be granted to the Finnish Republic outright.
"Why should innocent brethren be left under the uncaring eye of a far-flung Kingdom? Why must we watch as Finno-Ugrians—our cousins, we must remember—watch their language, their culture, falter into nonexistence under the boot of national conformity in Norr? I do not think we should," Karvonen declared in a video spread through right-wing social media groups. Finns Party members began to label the Kven people of Norr "our abandoned cousins" by the end of August, and, powerless to stop it, President Kai Mykkänen—head of state of one of the world's most stable, happy democracies—had to watch as political infighting heightened. It is true—not all Finns find themselves consumed by the heated debates that now fill Finland's political spheres. However, increasing weight now rests on Mykkänen's upcoming "anti-reactionary" speaking tour of Finland, which he was gambling would help to stop or reverse the encroaching influence of the Finns Party in Finland.

Kingdom of Spain establishes long-lasting partnership with Vietnam (Youkraneana)
| Discussions between the Foreign Ministers and the various aides of New Provenance and Youkraneana have been successful and extremely beneficial and fruitful for both nations. Spanish representatives expressed great interest in increasing the volume of trade with Vietnam, specifically Vietnamese exports of technological items and oil into Spain, as well as possibly negotiating mutual investments into each nation's various industries. After diplomatic talks between the two representatives, Spanish Prime Minister Augustina Torres announced at a press conference the new agreements reached upon between Madrid and Hanoi regarding economic, diplomatic, and military ties between the two nations. |
| 'I am pleased to say that relations between Spain and Vietnam have taken a turn for the better, with economic and diplomatic ties being strengthened between our two nations', stated Spanish Prime Minister Torres as she stood in front of the wooden podium, at the front of the press briefing room at the Moncloa Palace, the official residence and working office of the Prime Minister of Spain. Beside her, behind a second podium, stood the Vietnamese ambassador to the Kingdom of Spain. The Prime Minister spoke in a warm and cordial tone while she listed the new agreements between Vietnam and Spain, possibly a symbol of what was to come of Spain-Vietnam diplomatic relations. |
| On trade, Spain has agreed to increase Vietnamese imports of technological items, crude oil, and iron and steel into the country to encourage expanded trade between the two nations. Spain's largest shipbuilding corporation Navantia will also be selling cargo ships to Vietnam to support their global trade operations. Spanish investments into Vietnam's technology and housing sectors have also been agreed upon, with Madrid planning to invest up to $5 billion USD into the aforementioned industries within the next five to six years. Vietnam will also be purchasing two Alvaro De Bazan-class frigates from Spain for $1 billion USD as part of what could be the start of increased defense collaboration between the two countries. Finally, Banco Santander, Spain's largest banking institution, will be opening their first branch in Hanoi - and thus their first in Vietnam - as the Southeast Asian country strives to become a financial and economic hub for the region. |
| With this new flurry of agreements between Madrid and Hanoi, it is to be expected that Spain and Vietnam have entered a new era of friendly and close relations and partnerships. Spain values her Asian allies and considers the far-flung continent as a great potential economic and financial center for the world, and a continent of nations and partners willing to work together with Madrid towards a common goal. The Prime Minister, when asked by reporters, replied that she 'would be more than willing' to visit Hanoi personally and continue on the track of friendship and solidarity that Spain and Vietnam have started on. |

Therefore, I would like to propose some extensive education partnerships between our universities and colleges in addition to new cultural awareness programs through media and tourist companies as well as educational organizations. We are connected through history, therefore, we must cherish both the good and the ugly. I would like to also propose joint initiatives for constructing new museums and documentary films on the cultures, geography, traditions, wildlife, customs, history, and current affairs of both our countries.

Additionally I would like to bring some of those schools right here to Zaire. That means we'll need access to public lands to build new universities but in the long run you will have beautiful college campuses not just in Kinshasa but also in Mbuji-Mayi, Lubumbashi, Kananga, and every major city in Zaire. With regards to investments which will be pouring in by the millions of euros, we can also set up an investment bank here in Kinshasa to handle all French investments in Zaire."[/sub]

Education has always been a sort of soft spot for me, as I have always thought that education is imperative for the continuation of one's culture and society.

I also propose that both our nations agree to pass legislation making it easier for Spanish students to move to the USAN and for USAN students to move to Spain so that it won't be a daunting task to even consider studying in one of our two countries.

Granted, we are not replacing the importance of oil and natural gas as that will never be replaced by greener energy due to its cross-industrial necessity. However, the USAN shall surely provide investments and we are willing to open the USAN greener energy sector to Spanish investments and cooperation. Expanding upon energy and culture and education agreements, I would like to propose as far as security is concerned, annual joint military training here in the USAN so that Spain can gain experience within different geographical environments but also for the USAN to be able to better train its personnel and operations to be better successful to protecting our national interests and the security of our people."[/sub][/list]

Through competition, we allow the markets to find new price equilibriums and consumers remain satisfied with new sources of products whether produced in Spain or the USAN.

[sub]| 2025 JULY | 0080 YS | Finnish Criticism Sends Shockwaves Through Norse Government | OSLO | COPENHAGEN |[/sub]
[list][list][sub]Recent criticism and decrees of “mismanagement” have emboldened politicians and the like.[/sub][/list][/list]
[list]| Just days ago, numerous Finnish politicians, bolstered by right-wing populist Alvi Karvonen, criticized the Norse government for its alleged mismanagement of the Kven people. For any readers who may not know, the Kven people are considered to be a Balto-Finnic minority in Norr. Housed, almost exclusively, in the northernmost reaches of Norr, primarily in the cities of Tromsø and Vadsø. They [the Kven people] have been a legal minority in Norr since the 1990s and have had their language recognized by the Kingdom since 2005. Their language is recognized by linguistic scholars as nearly “indistinguishable” from the modern Finnish language. |[/list]
[list]| The Norse government, headed by NorræsósÃalisti (Norse Socialist Party / NORSOC) member KatrÃn Jakobsdóttir, was quick to respond to these allegations of mismanagement. Huge pools and piles of evidence were brought up to show how the Norse government has been accommodating and respectful to the Finnic minority peoples living in Norr for hundreds upon hundreds of years. Collectively, the evidence that was brought up were the following; several civil rights acts that have been passed giving collective and inalienable rights to all citizens of Norr regardless of race or creed, documentation proving that Kven has been a protected language untampered with over the past thirty years, documentation proving that there has been no attempts over the past hundred years by the Norse government to outbreed or harm the Kven people, and documentation providing proof that the Kven homeland has never once in the several hundred years of NorrÂ’s existence ever been tampered with or harmed. |[/list]
[list]| It was not only politicians that came to the defense of the Norse government but it was also citizens, athletes and filmmakers who came to speak out against this radical Finnish questioneering and fabrication. Norse filmmaker of Finnish heritage and descent, Tommy Wirkola. A native of Finnmark, having been born in Alta near Tromsø, Wirkola has produced and directed several movies that have received international praise and global recognition, including the film; ‘Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters’. Wirkola said quote; “The idea that there is a single oppressed minority in Norr is almost an impossible thought to have. Never once as a kid did I feel like I was overcoming some obstacle based on where I was from or my heritage. I’m proud to be from Norr and I’m also proud to be Finnish. Neither one comes before the other in my eyes”. Mister Wirkola was not the only person of international note that made a statement of support for the Norse Kingdom. Several olympians and athletes that have represented Norr in the past have also made statements. The notable ones of Finnish descent are; Juni Marie Benjaminsen, John-olav Einemo, and Mikko Kokslien. |[/list]
[list]| KatrÃn Jakobsdóttir, Prime Minister of Norr, made a public statement on the matter, saying quote; |[/list]
[list][list][list][pre] " . . . Those of which who would question His MajestyÂ’s governmentÂ’s transparency and the honesty
of the members of my Council are welcomed to view Norr as upclose and personal as they may
want. The Norse government has no reason to hide anything and will not. In fact, we encourage
the Finnish president, Kai Mykkänen as well as Mister Alvi Karvonen to visit Finnmark to view
how their Norse represented cousins fair as of late. "
— KatrÃn Jakobsdóttir, Prime Minister of Norr[/pre][/list][/list][/list]

Shah Kuzma and Vizier Nazarbayev would exchange handshakes and brief words with Vice Grand Emir Al Khalifa before the KKC would escort them to the motorcade. The motorcade would promptly depart for Ak Orda Imperial Palace.

I am thankful that you are able to take time out of your busy schedule to meet with me today as no more time should be allowed to pass without both of our countries establishing crucial relations.

|Shah Kuzma| “I’m certain that His Excellency and I will meet sooner rather than later, your presence is just as welcome, you are steadfast in the support of your ideology. Belief is a powerful thing and it creates powerful men. I’ve lived through the dreams of strong men with failed states and I’ve lived through the dreams of strong men with strong states. I’ve witnessed my country hit rock bottom with the USSR and rise back up under the SGRI and Tsar Putin’s system. I see the Muslim world under Abdulrahmanism as I did Central Asia during the SGRI, an unmatched efficiency, a political prowess that is burnt into my memory. I've learned from the brilliance of your system and have been modelling the policies here to suit our situation. I believe that the cooperation of Abdulrahmanism conforming nations is the key to a new era in Muslim politics, that solidarity will push us forward, but the knowledge of the populace is crucial, I want the Abdulrahman institute to come to Turan and join our educational system to enlighten the masses. Even in absence my subordinates share my- no our vision, the New Turks wish it to be.”

Vice Grand Emir Hamad bin Isa al-Khalifa:
[list][sub]"The establishment of the Abdulrahman Institute here in your country can absolutely happen and more importantly, I am truly humbled to hear that you are willing to have it join your educational system. The beauty of the Abdulrahmanist ideology is that it is a fluid, flexible ideology that can be tailored and implemented in accordance to the dominating cultural perceptions of your society and over time replace the old views that hinder true progress in a given country and instill in the people something to be proud about and great passion for the future. With this, I am glad that the spirit and fire of Abdulrahmanism burns bright here in Astana as it does in Abu Dhabi and Baghdad. Having agreed on the Abdulrahman Institute, I would like to decrease travel restrictions between our countries to increase tourism but also business dialogue and coordination. What I mean by business coordination is gathering understandings and insight on how both of our markets and consumers operate to determine successful trade and business policies that are heavily geared toward profit accumulation but also the enrichment and protection of both worker and consumer. It is essential that the working backbone of the Abdulrahmanist State be invested in and protected to the degree that competitiveness remains strong and the economy stable. I would like to also suggest a joint effort on the construction of new mosques here with the implementation of new imams that not only are dedicated to their faiths but also dedicated to your regime and your version of Abdulrahmanism as a means to ensure compliance and obedience to your reign as Shah. As you have stated, it is imperative that the Abulrahmanist states cooperation to bring forth a new era in Muslim politics."[/sub][/list]

[sub]Grand Emir Abdullah II bin al-Hussein Administration | ABU DHABI, 2025 [/sub][/list]
[sub]| ALMUDIRIAT ALEARABIAT ALEULYA - المديرية العربية العليا | Chairman Ali Sherif al-Emadi of the National Council on Finances & Investment Allocation has revealed the establishment of the Abdulrahman Infrastructure Investment Bank of Arabia, which is intended to grow into a regional based investment bank geared toward operations in both the Arab and Muslim Worlds. The AIIBA aims to improve economic and social outcomes in Arabia as well as the Muslim World and the Arab World across the Greater MENA region. For many USAN analysts and supporters of the AIIBA, the organization is classified as the natural inter-national extension of the infrastructure-driven economic development framework that has sustained the gradual economic growth of the USAN. Chairman Ali Sherif al-Emadi indicated that the idea behind the AIIBA stems from the notion that long-term economic growth can only be achieved through systematic, and broad-based investments in infrastructure assets – in contrast with the more solely dominating short-term "export-driven" and "domestic consumption" development models favored by mainstream Western Neoclassical economists and pursued by many developing countries in the 1990s and the first decade of the 21st century with generally disappointing results.[/sub]
[sub]In a statement, Chairman al-Emadi gave the following statement while in session in Abu Dhabi:[/sub]
[list][list][pre]The USAN economy is becoming deeply integrated with the global economy and forms an important driving force of the regional economy of Asia and slowly the world at large. Arabian investment opportunities are expanding and investment opportunities in infrastructure connectivity as well as in new technologies, new products, new business patterns, and new business models are constantly springing up. The USAN's foreign cooperation opportunities are expanding. We support the multilateral trading system, devote ourselves to the RSSO negotiations and freer trade partnerships, advocate for free trade zones here in the Peninsula and in our global partnerships, promote negotiations on regional comprehensive economic partnership, advocate the construction of the Abdulrahman Infrastructure Investment Bank of Arabia (AIIBA), boost economic and financial cooperation in an all-round manner, and work as an active promoter of economic globalization and regional integration.[/pre][/list][/list]
[sub]With extensive coordination between the National Council on Finances & Investment Allocation and the Supreme Arab Directorate, it was determined that the AIIBA would begin with $175 billion as starting capital to be utilized by the bank on a plethora of investment projects in the USA but across the MENA region. | [/sub]

[sub]Volume 2, Issue 4/खंड 4, अंक 1 [/sub]
[sup]Arms Industry Makes Additional Gains In Indian Economy, Military Approves New Body Armor Uniforms!?[/sup]
[sup]In news coming in from New Delhi, where the Ministry of Defense has just approved a multi-billion dollar contract with the company MKU (originally incorporated as M Kumar Udyog) which is an Indian defense company headquartered in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, India. The company manufactures protection and surveillance range of equipment, including ballistic helmets, armor inserts, bulletproof vests, and electro-optical devices like night vision binoculars and monoculars. MKU was set up in 1985 to build fibre-reinforced plastic products for the Indian Army. It now provides protection to over 20 lakh (2 million soldiers) and 2000 platforms. Its products are used by 230 forces in over 100 countries worldwide including the United Nations and NATO. The company with it's extensive history in body armor and other military, law enforcement and civilian products had been approved by the Ministry of Defense by it's plan to outfit at lease half of it's active military personnel by 2026 with a newly domestically produced combat uniforms that it's stated to be rated level 2a in accordance with NIJ ratings. Which according to the report, the new combat uniforms would not only offer more breathable material to alleviate body heat. The new combat uniforms is rated to stop some handgun calibers and shrapnel from explosives and or explosive materials. Giving infantry an additional edge on the battlefield.[/sup]
[sup]Currently the Indian military still uses a vast array of camouflage patterns, with some divisions even developing their own. The Ministry of Defense for the last few decades has tried to transition the vast majority of it's personnel into using one or few patterns to use evenly across the country. One of which being the growing popular pattern multicam, which has quickly become a favorite among special operations forces and other armed forces from countries across the globe. With the development of a domestically produced digital camouflaged pattern for the Indian armed forces. With the company showcasing it's new combat uniform in multicam variant patterns from arid, tropic, alpine and black.[/sup]
[sup]Variants of the multicam pattern is currently in use by MARCOS commandos, Garud Commando Force and Paras in jungle operations. The proposed national standard for the combat uniform which was originally posted for 2022 had been postponed due to Covid 19, with the measure picked back up for debate among high ranking officials back in March of this year. Despite the exciting news coming out from MKU, it is unlikely to see any results or until it comes into full production, at lease until early 2026.[/sup]
[sup]Meanwhile MKU, among other startup companies that specialize in personnel protection has been gaining huge traction in the domestic markets, as well as globally thanks in part to consumer interest in body armor. One company in particular develops a line of clothing that is specific designed to prevent or resist knife and spike protection against various common blades. The material though a little thick has become increasingly popular among locals, who primarily use it to prevent serious harm or life threating injuries from animal attacks such as Bengal Tiger. Though highly dangerous animal, is also an recognized endangered species.[/sup]
[sup]The company also specializes in other types of worn body armor, such as the use of light but dense material such as chainmail which had been sold here domestically in India as a market to prevent animal attacks from not only Tigers, but as well as sharks and other marine wildlife. Though additionally soft kevlar based body armor vest is often wore not just by citizens who are licensed to conceal and carry firearms in India, but people in general.[/sup]

A NEW MAHAMANTRI? AWARASALA'S NEW FOREIGN POLICY
[sub] ରୋନୁନା | BY PRAKAS WIKRAMADITYA, SENIOR POLITICAL ANALYST[/sub][/list]
[sub]| ARKOSODARA RAJANITIKABARA HQ, SINGAPORE MEDIA CITY, SINGAPORE ସିନଗହ୍ମାପୁରା | The Singhasari Empire of Nusantara is a Hindu-Buddhist Constitutional Parliamentary Semi-Theocratic Monarchy, with the celestial sovereign, the Emperor, being the leader of the Nusantaran state. As of now, the majority of the population adheres to syncretic Dharmic traditions, while more than a third follows the path of the Buddha Dharma, and a slim minority still adhere to the animist beliefs of the Nusantaran forefathers. The Singhasari Empire has seen unexampled success in its economic fortunes, its political cohesion, and its renewed cultural renaissance; however, Nusantara's once-popular Mahamantri (akin to a prime minister) has seen her administration stagnate. What was once hailed as political dynamism, is now seen as a the basis of a burgeoning political elite. Since the confirmation of Mahamantri for a second term in 2020, she has not been able to form the necessary coalitions to govern. Krishnanita Awarasala, the current Imperial Secretary of the Celestial Office of Foreign Affairs is rumored to be a challenger to Pai's leadership. In a recent press conference, she declared that she refueses to tow the Mahamantri's line and will begin implementing a new foreign policy for the greater good of the Nation, Universal Court (euphemism for the government of the Singhasari Empire), and the nation's foremost political organization - the Jasmine Regeneration Society. The radical policy of Serika, or "Openess" is charged with revitalizing Nusantara's existing relationships with Southeast Asia, Asia, Africa, and the West. Africa and Latin America are seen as new regions to champion multilateral cooperation and mutual development. Awarasala's new foreign policy isn't a departure from Pai's early years; however, her recent reticence has caused great concern from Singapore to Irian (Papua). |[/sub]
[sub]| The Singhasari Empire has, following liberalizing in the 90's, begun a process of complete liberalization accompanied by stringent anti-corruption legislation and more. The Empire works to garner investment in multiple special economic zones, as well as begin to denationalize the large spice and agriculture industries in the Eastern Islands. Moreover, the massive consumer tech sector and outsourcing sector have seen a major boom in Sumatra. On Java, the Singhasari Court has moved to cut corporate taxes and offer tax-free zones across the archipelago. Singapore stands as a shining jewel in the Rajasa Monarchy's crown - it is the financial heart of the Empire. In Timur, new petroleum and natural gas companies have seen recent innovations in refinery production increase Nusantara's overall exports. Awarasala hopes that these policies, combined with Pai's 2014-2018 foreign policy can become the foundation for a renewed Nusantaran presence across the world. The Singhasari Empire has its eyes set on bilateral summits with Philanialle, Youkraneana, Peking Zhongguo, Alzarikstan, Crazybloxian Empire, and Nosautempopulus. In a recent phone call between Awarasala and her Filipino counterpart, bilateral commitments were reaffirmed. Awarasala looks to Europe and North America for further collaboration and for investment. Awarasala's dream of a Singhasari-EU Free Trade Agreement was almost realized in 2016 when Bayern Kahla's Scheffner visited Singapore to celebrate European-Singhasari cooperation. The Empire, if Awarasala is to succeed Pai, is keen on realizing the trade deal. Paramountica's unique and special partnership with the Singhasari Empire is expected to be the focus of a renewed interest. The cooperation itirated almost ten years ago is expected to be enlargened by a possible Awarasala Universal Court. |[/sub]

MAKE IN NUSANTARA 2035
[sub] ଇନାଦୱାନ ନୁସାନତାରା | BY SHRIYA RANGAGOPULLI , SENIOR ECONOMICS ANALYST[/sub][/list]
[sub]| ROBOTICS PALACE, SINGAPORE TECH CITY, SINGAPORE ସିନଗହ୍ମାପୁରା | Nusantara's Universal Court's industrial masterplan “Make in Nusantara 2035” aims to turn the country into a “manufacturing superpower” over the coming decades. This industrial policy will challenge the economic primacy of the current leading economies and international corporations. The political push for industrial modernization in Nusantara creates an enormous demand for smart manufacturing products like industrial robots, smart sensors, wireless sensor networks, and radio frequency identification chips. For many foreign enterprises, this initiative provides highly attractive business opportunities: the transformation of Nusantara's manufacturing base requires advanced technologies that Nusantaran suppliers are not able to provide at their current technological level. Nusantara's industrial upgrading, in the short term, can mean tremendous profits for international companies. For Nusantara's economic partners in Europe and the United States, it could even open opportunities for a mutually beneficial deepening of economic, technological as well as political cooperation. In principle, the global economy has good reasons to welcome Nusantara's quest for increased innovation capacity, provided that Nusantara abides by the principles and rules of open markets and fair competition. Moreover, the Make In Nusantaa campaign would see improverished communities benefit the most from an expansion in education funding alongside family planning services seeing the birthrate decline. |[/sub]
[sub] | Make in Nusantara 2035 also has an outward-looking dimension: the accelerating acquisition of international high-tech companies by Nusantaran investors. To speed up Nusantara's technological catch-up and to leapfrog stages of technological development, Nusantaran companies are acquiring core technologies through investment abroad. In itself, this is neither surprising nor objectionable. However, Nusantara's technology acquisitions are partly supported and guided by the state. Nusantara pursues an outbound industrial policy with government capital and highly necessary investor networks to facilitate high-tech acquisitions abroad. Nusantara's largest technology acquisition deal, the 2017 Continued Singhasari-Japanese Cooperation Agreement saw Nusantara acquire key high-speed rail technologies and supply-chain technologies. This has allowed Nusantara to create the capital base program necessary for integrating the periphery regions with the core islands and Malaya Watek. Nusantaran high-tech investments need to be interpreted as building blocks of an overarching political programme. It aims to systematically acquire cutting-edge technology and generate large-scale technology transfer. In the long term, Nusantara wants to obtain control over the most profitable segments of global supply chains and production networks. If successful, Make in Nusantara 2035 could accelerate the erosion of industrial countriesÂ’ current technological leadership across industrial sectors. As illustrated by the fierce discussions surrounding recent high-profile hightech acquisitions, governments in Europe and the U.S. increasingly perceive this dimension of Nusantara's quest for technological upgrading as a crucial and pressing challenge. Policy Recommendations are to be found in the official dispatch which is rumored to released later today by the Universal Court's Celestial Office of the State Treasury. |[/sub]

THE DIGITAL FREE TRADE ZONE
[sub] ପୁରୁଶ୍ରାମ ମୁକ୍ତତି ବହୁମିରା | BY MARA THAWADDI , JUNIOR TECH ANALYST[/sub][/list]
[sub]| DFTZ HEADQUARTERS, SINGAPORE TECHNOLOGY CITY, SINGAPORE ସିନଗହ୍ମାପୁରା | The Digital Free Trade Zone (DFTZ) is an initiative to capitalize on the confluence and exponential growth of the internet economy and cross-border eCommerce activities. The DFTZ is setup to facilitate seamless cross-border trade and enable local businesses to export their goods with a priority for eCommerce. DFTZ will provide physical and virtual zones to facilitate SMEs (Small and mid-size enterprises) to capitalize on the convergence of exponential growth of the internet economy and cross-border eCommerce activities. Back in May of 2015, the belief that Paramountican will breathe new life in helping Nusantara become a global hub of the digital economy, was actualized in the joining of the 1996 Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC - 1996) with the DFTZ. The MSC was envisioned to be a special economic zone that would attract both domestic and international high-tech businesses though; today, the success of the MSC can be seen across the Singhasari Empire's robust tech sectors. While the goal of the DFTZ is to grow and diversify locations of Nusantaran SMEs, comparative advantage on the other hand states that the nation that has the lower cost of production will always win and the nation that is least competitive will lose market share. Moving forward, the Nusantaran authorities must ensure that the DFTZ does not create an irreversible uneven playing field for local SMEs. The integration of supply chains and the spearheading of new technology-focused programs alongside existing poverty reduction programs will see coding, tech-use, and free technology sectors propel Nusantaran economic advancement to the levels seen by Japan and other East Asian nations. Nusantara's developed banking industry will be integrated digitally into a larger framework to create a seamless economic ecosystem. Investment from major nations in the Parijata Plan will see the Nusantaran GDP continuously grow will making more adaptable forces available. The economy of Nusantara will be a dynamic 21st century creation, that can outwork its politically unstable opponents. |[/sub]
