Honestly, I think it comes down to falling in love with the nation you create, not literal love but something akin to it. I have been the nation I am the entire time I’ve been here, and I have never gotten tired of it. Yeah there may be times I am a bit stagnant with ideas, but I always find inspiration. When it comes to switching nations, it is preferred that you are in a certain spot for an amount of time before doing so. When it comes to anyone being allowed, you have to be apart of the WA before sending in a map spot request.

Like, this nation of mine is almost 7 years old, pretty sure 5 or the entire six years has been spent in this region. I know I said 4 or 5 years, but that’s because I lost track of how long I’ve been around for. XD

[list][pre]ABASCAL ADMINISTRATION REVOKES ARTICLE 50 INVOCATION BUT AFFIRMS ELECTION WAS LEGITIMATE[/pre][/list]

—

[list]| [sub]MADRID -[/sub] [sub]At a press conference at the Foreign Ministry building in Madrid, Prime Minister Santiago Abascal, accompanied by Finance Minister Nadia Calvino and the Spanish representative to the EU, formally announced that the Kingdom of Spain was revoking the Article 50 invocation by the Spanish Government, which effectively ends the process of a Spanish withdrawal from the European Union. The announcement was expected by many, as growing pressure from independent Sanchez and other portions of the government itself - the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Economy in particular - had presumably pushed the government over the edge to revoke the invocation of Article 50. The announcement was backed by Finance Minister Nadia Calvino, who affirmed in a separate statement that 'Spain is and will be a strong partner and Member State of the European Union from this moment onwards'. However, Abascal has apparently refused to step down, affirming with the backing of the Commission on Elections (COE) that the election results, which led to a Vox landslide victory in both houses of the Cortes Generales, were completely and utterly legitimate. Although some still doubt that the election was fully legitimate, most Spaniards and the government itself has mostly recognized Abascal and his right-wing government as Spain's new government. In order to appeal to the moderates, Prime Minister Abascal also nominated numerous moderate right-wings and some centrists to participate in his Cabinet of Ministers, a potential sign of his Government's willingness to cooperate and compromise with opposition parties.[/sub] |[/list]

THE RISE OF SANDIAGA UNO

BANGKITNYA SANDIAGA UNO

[sup]December 2026

[/sup]

[list]

The Indonesian Election of 2025 has brought vast changes to the nation with the conservative victory, ever since the 2025 elections the Great Indonesia Movement Party has has finally defeated the populist Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle.

____________________________________________________________

Pemilu Indonesia 2025 telah membawa perubahan besar bagi bangsa dengan kemenangan konservatif, sejak pemilu 2025 Partai Gerakan Indonesia Raya akhirnya mengalahkan Partai Demokrasi Indonesia Perjuangan yang populis.

[sub]》 Joko Widodo has been a great hero of the nation, constructing many infunstructure projects, reducing corruption, universal healthcare, and cracking down on crime from drug smuggling to piracy but he has been assassinated by a suicide bombing from radical Islamists, 5th of May, 2024. In the last election, the 2020 election, Joko has won 55% of the votes with their rival, DIMP only having 25%, the rest of the parties that were present in the elections had won the remaining 20%. With the elimination of Joko, the IDPS lost large amounts of funding and support soon there was a power vacuum. The vice president, Ma'ruf Amin immediately took temporary executive powers until a new president was elected. The nation was at panic and sorrow that Widodo has passed away, many critics expected for the Islamist parties to take advantage of this, but instead the Great Indonesia Movement Party has gained the upper hand, during his funeral the GIMP has remarked Widodo as a "great leader" and that he "will be never forgotten" , while the Islamic parties had no comment. GIMP's new canidate for the election; Sandiaga Uno (GIMP's Prabowo Subianto's running mate in the 2020 election).He is a graduate of George Washington University, Sandiaga worked for several companies and rose in rank before founding his own business, which led him to become one of the richest people in Indonesia. In 2015, Uno resigned from his companies to join GIMP, on 7 December 2020, Sandiaga Uno and his wife tested positive for COVID-19, but recovering later February 7th. [/sub]

[sub]》 He has slowly been gaining popularity since the 2020 elections, being interviewed in the news, talk shows, magazines, and even writing his own books. His staunch was conservative populism and is also economically liberal regarding trade, during the 2025 calpain he had promisies to repel the Indonesia’s harsh new Criminal Code stating it as "Government overreach to the personal rights of Indonesia" of, to strengthen the separation between religion and state, a campaign against the LGBT "enemy", tackle the environmental issues in Indonesia, expand trade and partnerships between nations, and a stronger coast guard and navy. In a 2021 Jakarta Post interview a journalist asked Uno, "currently the GDP growth is 5% how will your presidency change that?" Uno's response was, "Well, first of all we must appreciate the development plan that the previous government [has] tried to achieve. And it's much lower than the promise of more than 7% growth made during the president's (Widodo) campaign promise in 2015. But without structural reform, you won't be able to get more than 5%. And I think in the first year we would be very realistic about the goal for ourselves; With some adjustments we will probably aim for 5.5-6%, but I think towards the end we may be able to get back into the 6-7% range." [/sub]

[sub]》 Sandiaga Uno calls on to growth to inequality reduction, growth to job production, growth to maintaining stability on food prices, growth to the welfare of farmers, growth that makes sure that spatial inequalities appear to be low. "Right now, despite the efforts of the Widido administration, you see Java as the centre of growth. With the exception of South Sulawesi, the rest of the country is not enjoying the same type of growth that Java has." - Sandiaga Uno, 2024. With the Populists stuck the GIMP was against the Islamic parties, whom has formed a coalition against the conseratives, with the Party of the Functional Groups and Democratic Party supporting the GIMP. Sandiaga Uno won the election by 70% of the vote with Hashim Djojohadikusumo as Vice president. [/sub]

[sub]》 Since 2025 he has repelled multiple "radical" Islamic legislations, has banned any religious teachings in public schools, cancelled any future constructions of coal power plants with the support from the Indonesian Green Party, has stablized the food prices, increased welfare to farmers, building a solid middle class, raised GDP growth to 5.5, and is planning to enact the Indonesian 2030 economic plan that will be reveled soon. Currently Uno leads the Pancasila Coalition while Islamist parties lead the Awakening Coalition ever since the 2010s the Islamist parties have increased popularity after their collapse in the 60s and 70s by the nationalists. Islamist parties had a bad image in the 60s since the where political Islamic figures supported the killing of Javanese Abangan, atheists, alleged "unbelievers" (including non-Muslims) and ethnic Chinese. This led to the ban of many small Islamic parties that led the killing, about 500,000 people killed by small Islamic militias and other members. The Islamic parties are still sensitive about it today, claiming that their parties are not what they were in the past. This is Indonesia. 2026.[/sub]

DISAPPOINTMENT, BETRAYAL, BUT FAITH IN THE VISION & MELONI

DECEMBER 2026

https://youtu.be/TAiIQ91UPeo

While Spain has turned its back on the Idea it itself sponsored, Italy shall and must venture forth on this new challenging route that lays ahead of it. The Italian Government, not wishing to overly damage the Economies of its Allies and naturally unnecessarily do the same to itself, has requested to the German Government to assist it in putting to the floor of the EU a motion to extend the Italian withdrawal period so that a comprehensive trade deal may be negotiated. The Government has underlined that if said request for a trade deal is not accepted, then the original exit date for December of 2027 will continue as planned. As a Result unlike its Spanish counterpart, Italy has reaffirmed its statements and motions rather than swiftly removing and backtracking on them and thus has calmed the thoughts of many Italians who feared that their own Government would also shakily step back on its commitments to them.

As for the Journey that lies ahead, Spain has merely changed the destination as Italy has held emergency meetings with the representatives of the Provincial Parliaments (Croatia + Slovenia + Albania) to discuss and comprehensively agree on a new course. It was in these meetings that it was agreed that the Organizations that Italy is creating (Latin Union + Med. Bloc) shall merely change in name but not in function. The Latin Union shall be renamed to the Adriatic Community, specifically existing for Italy and its Provinces as all border the Adriatic Sea and thus it was considered a common reference. The name change also importantly changed the implications from a Italian centric one to a general geographic marker, thus making it more accessible and agreeable to those in the Provinces.

If no Trade Agreement is reached with the EU it would have wider implications for both blocs, as in trade terms around 380 Billion USD is exported to the EU every year as a whole from all Adriatic Community Members, and a slightly smaller (365 Billion) number for imports. However even this is not the most important change that would occur, it is logistical in nature. Currently Italy receives around 2/5ths of its Sea-borne import goods from northern Europe (specifically the Netherlands and German Atlantic Ports) which then transit to Italy through transport links in Austria. After the departure of Italy in a no-deal scenario, the Italian Government has been quite optimistic about the implications of increased shipping that this brings with it. After all in total net terms, more of Italy's trade passes through other members of the EU to reach Italy rather than vice versa, and the only solution to this would be increasing the size and investments in Italian ports. This would reverse the half-century long trend of Italian ports decreasing in size in order to relocate entry-points to northern and western Europe which was considered cheaper at the time (however currently is more so due to their already huge capacities, it being cheaper to expand those already large ports than the smaller Italian ones).

It would also greatly help Italy's Fishing situation. Over 70% of the Fishing being conducted within Italian waters is done by non-Italian Vessels, mainly French and Spanish. In a no deal Scenario Italy would take full ownership of its EEZ once again, and the Fishing capacity in the region would be returned to its rightful owner. This would be a great benefit to the Country with the largest Mediterranean EEZ. But that is not all in Agricultural terms : Farming in Italy in general is considered more expensive than many other European Nations, mainly France (who benefited greatly from the EU being able to export its agricultural goods more easily, and making advantage of its influential farming sector which gave French farmers a monopolistic reputation in Europe). With a no-deal scenario Italy would have to revert to a tariff situation with said Countries and thus it would make Agricultural production in Italy and its Provinces more profitable and sustainable.

For those optimistic reasons the Brothers of Italy have brought a message of hope towards a new future or "new deal" of sorts. Italy would certainly suffer short term, however long term in the words of the Prime Minister it would be "reborn like a Phoenix" alongside its Balkan Provinces who have struggled in the past decade to find profitability and economic expansion as part of a larger EU. Increased investment and sales numbers are attractive to all of the Provincial Parliaments, especially with many of their elections betting on support from the farmer or industrial vote.

Largest of all however is the purely ecstatic reaction of the Shipping sector. Prior to the entry of Countries like Greece and Cyprus into the European Union, Italy had one of the largest European Trading Fleets due to its large coastline. But the shared Economic Deals and Rights then led to a vast decrease which has caused Italy to have less Merchant Vessels Registered within it than Cyprus, Malta, Greece, the UK and even Spain. From being the second largest Merchant Fleet in Europe to the 6th puts perspective on why the Shipping Sector in Italy opposed more integration into the EU consistently over the years (including irl). Now however, with Italy being forced to consider increasing its Sea-borne imports threefold and decrease the usage of non-Italian Trade Vessels the Shipping Sector is being handed a potentially lucrative multi decade and billion dollar deal that would see hundreds if not thousands of Vessels constructed over that time. The threat does exist that the Government would opt to promote importing second hand Trade vessels, however the Industry is fiercely fighting in Parliament to have it accepted as policy to instead increase the construction of Trade Vessels.

[list][pre]"BACKSTAB OF THE CENTURY": ESPANA UNIDA COALITION PRESSURES RIGHT-WING GOVERNMENT INTO SNAP ELECTIONS[/pre][/list]

—

[list]| [sub]MADRID -[/sub] [sub]In what is now being widely called the "Backstab of the Century", four out of five parties in the Espana Unida legislative coalition formally issued a memorandum, sanctioned by pro-EU politicians and Spaniards alike, as well as democracy and censorship advocates, calling for the right-wing Government under Santiago Abascal to hold a legitimate snap election in order to 'restore the democratic processes of the previous Administration and ensure that the Government of Spain is elected in a legitimate and timely manner'. The move by the Opposition Four, composed of the heads of the centrist Ciudadanos, the conservative People's Party, the social democratic PSOE, and the moderate-right Podemos, was motivated mainly by calls from the retired independent Pedro Sanchez, who continued to and was still gathering a strong following among left-wing and centrist Spaniards. Five days before the Espana Unida agreed by majority vote to pressure the right-wing government into holding snap elections, Pedro Sanchez went public with his idea of forming a centre-left Socialist Party of Spain (Socialista Partido Espana, or SPE), which according to him would be 'extremely similar to the PSOE in policy but would be composed of an entirely new generation of Spaniards, which would be led by economy-minded individuals and politicians'. Although the international community continues to recklessly hate on Sanchez for his involvement in the Western Mediterranean Crisis, Sanchez's popularity locally has remained substantial, albeit less than prior to the Crisis. Sanchez's podering of establishing a party threatened the political hegemony of the Espana Unida coalition, leading to the Opposition Four pressuring Prime Minister Abascal's government into holding snap elections five days later. Prime Minister Santiago Abascal, recognizing the threat to his hold on power, acquicised and set a snap election for 'as soon as possible'. The election was finally locked in for December 11, 2026 and the government launched polls to decide who was leading among the population:[/sub] |

Ciudadanos: 35.5%

People's Party: 34.5%

Spanish Socialist Workers Party: 19%

Possible Sanchez-led Socialist Party - 11%[/list]

[list][pre]CENTRIST PROGRESSIVE CIUDADANOS SECURE VARE ELECTION VICTORY, DEFEATING CONSERVATIVE PP BY 58,277 VOTES[/pre][/list]

—

[list]| [sub]MADRID -[/sub] [sub]After barely a year of being out of power, Spain's leading centrist progressive party, Ciudadanos or Citizens (Cs), has secured its president, Augustina Torres, the prime ministership once more. Ciudadanos won the prime ministership by a mere 58,277 votes, barely defeating the conservative People's Party (PP) candidate Pablo Casado. Torres's running mate and now Deputy Prime Minister-elect, Nadia Calvino, is an independent and a feverent pro-EU economist who has pledged to bring the nation closer to the European Union, 'Spain's vital lifeline'. Torres previously won the prime ministership in the 2024 national elections before resigning in 2026 due to international pressure. Her resignation wasn't received well by the Spanish public, who believed that she had done no wrong as she had been hospitalized during the unfolding of the Western Mediterranean Crisis. After her resignation, she continued to lead the Citizens (Cs), before securing a landslide victory for the party nomination for prime ministerial candidate in the December 2026 snap election. However, the Citizens Party failed to secure a Cortes Generales majority, winning only one-third of the Senate and 31% of the Congress of Deputies, giving no party a clear majority. Prime Minister-elect Torres has stated that she plans to solve the deadlock by establishing a coalition with the conservative PP named, surprisingly enough, Espana Unida. Santiago Abascal protested the election results and pushed for a recount, but a weary Spanish public, finally on the verge of being led by a stable leader, ignored his pleas.[/sub] |[/list]

| NEW YORK CITY, U.N. HEADQUARTERS, Paramountica — Japan Ambassador to the United Nations, Mr. Kazuyoshi Umemoto, made a brief speech at the General Assembly precisely to address the issue of climate change and assess whether the countries that participated in the 2024 Climate Summit made progress in reducing CO2 — which includes, of course, the Empire of Japan. An excerpt from Mr. Umemoto’s speech “Prime Minister Suga clearly showed the world that during his Administration several efforts were made, including his ‘Green Policy’, which was enacted in 2024 and has been carried out to this day.” |

| Ambassador Kazuyoshi Umemoto’s speech took place on the same day he met with environmental activists at the United Nations building to discuss climate change and what really poses a great risk to the planet. A European country that stood out and strictly complies with what was agreed at the 2024 Climate Summit was France, President Macron is investing billions of dollars in its environmental policy, as the Empire of Japan is doing until today. It is important to highlight that the French Republic had already been investing in its environmental policy long before the Tokyo Summit. |

| Questioning the position of other nations that did not participate in the climate summit, he says “It's not just France and Japan that will be responsible for trying to reduce CO2 emissions . . . We all need to do this together if we want a future for our children and grandchildren, we need to take care of the environment.” Umemoto adds, “The Empire of Japan is fully committed to reducing CO2” if we want things to change “The Japanese Empire will do its part.” — But by questioning the unsatisfactory position of other nations, Mr. Umemoto believes that mankind can still change and save the planet from total environmental destruction. |

| “All world leaders must unite so that we can build a sustainable planet for all of us!” concluded Japan Ambassador to the U.N. in his speech to the U.N. General Assembly. The Umemoto’s speech was widely praised by environmental activists. In an official Kantei note, it was added that a ‘2nd Climate Summit’ could be held in Tokyo — but this is just a plan by the Empire of Japan to see how progress is being made among nations that produce large amounts of CO2. |

Islamic Populist Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani Appointed Prime Minister by Caliph; Mohammad to Begin Forming New Government Under Civil Justice & Development Party!

الشعبوي الإسلامي محمد بن عبد الرحمن آل ثاني يعينه الخليفة رئيساً للوزراء. محمد يبدأ تشكيل حكومة جديدة في ظل حزب العدالة والتنمية المدنية

[sub]Caliph Abdullah bin al-Hussein Abdulrahman I Administration | ABU DHABI, 2026 [/sub][/list]

[sub]| DAWLAT ALAITIHAD LIL'UMAT AL'IISLAMIA - ادولة الاتحاد للأمة الإسلامية |[/sub]

Since the announcement of the formation of a Prime Ministership and a bicameral legislative assembly, Arabian citizens initiated feverish debating and national polls in attempts to get a read on the national consensus. Seeking to make it official, the Caliph determined that it would be best to hold a national referendum to determine how the Prime Minister should be chosen as well as duration of term(s) and, if need be, term limits. Surprising enough, the results were:

[list]CALIPH APPOINTED - [sub]57%[/sub]

DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED - [sub]43%[/sub][/list]

The national referendum did not come as much of a surprise as majority of the population would consider themselves political quietists and rather content currently with the clear autocratic government structure of the USIN. The second component of the national referendum pertained to the duration of the Prime Minister term with the following results:

[list]4 YEARS - [sub]27%[/sub]

6 YEARS - [sub]33%[/sub]

7 YEARS - [sub]40%[/sub][/list]

The final component of the national referendum for the establishment of the Prime Ministership was determining possible term limit restrictions. The following were the results:

[list]NO TERM LIMIT RESTRICTIONS - [sub]35%[/sub]

1 TERM - [sub]22%[/sub]

2 TERMS - [sub]43%[/sub][/list]

With the ratification of the results from the referendum, additional policy would be included such as the Caliph reserving the right and power to dismiss a Prime Minister based on certain situations that may deem a Prime Minister incapable of continual governance. Upon the removal of the Prime Minister, the newly established Civil Justice & Development Party will nominate 3 individuals for the Caliph to appoint a replacement. The Prime Minister shall serve 2 consecutive terms for a total of 14 years with an evaluation in the 7th year.

The moment the entirety of the Caliphate was looking forward to came into fruition as the Caliph revealed Islamic Populists, Staunch Abdulrahmanist, and founder of the Civil Justice & Development Party for the Islamic Jamahiriyah Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani. Walking into the foyer of the Palace of Nations with a very serious face, trimmed mustache, and freshly groomed hair while wearing a blue pinstripe suit and dark green tie. At age 40, Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani is known in the Caliphate to be a staunch supporter for the true empowerment and expansion of the influence of the Caliphate, anti-colonial rhetoric in the Middle East, and a supporter for authoritarian monitored democratic institutions under the auspice of the Caliph. Shaking hands with Caliph Abdullah bin al-Hussein Abdulrahman, Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani would take his sworn oath to the Caliph and the USIN before walking to a podium that bore a golden Saladin Eagle and draped with flags of the Caliphate. Very stern faced as he waited patiently for the end of the applause from the approved attending crowd, Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani would methodically observe each individual in the crowd. In a commanding tone after taking a sip of water

l Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani l:

[list][pre]My fellow people of the Islamic Jamahiriyah. Indeed all praise is due to Allah and we pray for His assistance and forgiveness. We seek refuge in Him from the Evil of our souls and our misdeeds, for who Allah guides will not go astray and he who sends astray won't come to the right path except by His leave. The Caliphate is the land of culture and civilization. The land of knowledge and spirituality. The land of perseverance and independence. The Arabian people are monotheist and patriotic. They have their unique identity and love to explore the world. For hundreds of years, our nation has safeguarded their right to self-determination and freedom against predatory hegemonists. We have made our country the most technologically advanced and progressive in the Arab World. The Abdulrahmanist Revolution of 1946 was a great leap for the fulfillment of national and islamic ideals of the Arabs including freedom, independence and religious sovereignty. I, as the appointed Prime Minister of the great people of the Caliphate, am honored to be their representative to convey to the world at large the message of rationality, justice and freedom which are the three most fundamental principles of the life of the contemporary man. However, those three principles that all the Abrahamic religions have in common will not be able to attain their purpose without spirituality.

Freedom and justice as two sacred and innocent words that are too broad to define, are indeed very tough and intricate when it comes to practicing. Freedom means the right to think, decide and act for all the human beings. Peace and lasting security are tied to the administration of justice and, basically, the divine prophets emerged so that people would demand justice and exercise their rights. Justice and freedom may be achieved only when the rights of all nations are fulfilled. As a matter of fact, any violation of the rights of nations will, more than anything, endanger global peace and security. Men. Women. Children. Allies of the Union-State of Islamic Nations. Today is the day that the waves of spiritual freedom, liberty, and unity have arrived at our shores. Through trials and tribulation, through prosperity and struggle, through gains and lost, the Caliphate has proven continuously that we are a determined and ambitious society that is not afraid. The Union-State of Islamic Nations was formed on the promises of continuing the work of our dear Eternal President Marshal Bokar Abdulrahman but revolutionize it so that the fruits that we bear can be enjoyed and accessible by all citizens. Ever since 1945, the Abdulrahmanist movement has tasked itself with reconstructing our social and economic identity. We have pledged to each other the principles of community but also individuality and the ability of self-determination and self-preservation. The reaches of the Caliphate encompasses the globe in strategic fashion. We seek prosperity for our people first while simultaneously cooperating with the discovered mutual interests between ourselves and our trusted allies. The Caliphate would like to show gratitude and thanks to our allies around the world for proven commitment and interest in the progression and fruition of the Caliphate and the untapped strength and that we are on the path of discovering.

I look in front of me and I see the leaders of the Caliphate today and tomorrow. I see the torchbearers of our representation and glory of the future but I also bear witness to the sages and teachers of yesterday, of who provide the proper mannerisms and guidance for us to live united and free. Together, we cultivate a spirit of acceptance and understanding, of which supplants proper investment within a profitable and salubrious human and social capital. I stand here today with the Caliph as I will seek to construct a government that will be guaranteeing you a future of affluence and international prestige. What is seen in our region today proves that not only the attempting hegemonist of Paris and her supporters and the idea of hegemony, but also the project of imposing Westernized identity have failed miserably. The result of seeking hegemony has been blood-spilling and instability and, ultimately, defeat and escape. Today, what we are observing is the unraveling of previously implemented colonial institutions that disproportionately usurp the natural wealth and the talents of our people for the benefit of foreign rule than legitimate domestic enterprise. The region has endured periods of being the oppressed people, from Palestine and Syria to Yemen and Afghanistan but Allah has granted the people of this ancient land the opportunity to reverse the course of our history.

The strategic thoughts of the Islamic Jamahiriyah of the USIN are rooted in the ideas of the founder of Abdulrahmanism, the Caliph Abdullah bin al-Hussein Abdulrahman as well as in the genuine concepts of true Islam, i.e. rationality, prudence and pondering and have resulted in the resistance in line with the national interests of countries. Speaking about the rights of nations without speaking of the obligations of their governments cannot bring about the fulfillment of their rights, as the independence of a nation is its freedom. The Islamic Jamahiriyah supports this kind of freedom and, hence, obstructs extremism. And this is the nature of the true strength of the Caliphate which does good to all. The Caliphate is inspiring and, as such, the power emanating from it creates security. The security-making model of the Caliphate is based on forming intra-regional mechanisms through diplomacy that is pivoted on and free from outside interferences. The new drive to come up with Cold War-esque divisions will not help foster the security of humans by isolating independent countries. An arbitrary attitude is not the way to solve terrorism because terrorism has its roots in various crises such as identity and economy. The fact that modern lives have become devoid of meaning and spirituality as well as the spread of poverty, discrimination and oppression have helped the rise of terrorism. The increasing growth of indigenous terrorism in the West bears witness to this bitter truth. Even more bitter is the use of terrorism as an instrument for foreign policy because you cannot fight terrorism with double standards.

Liberty is one of the defining features of a flourishing State. Articulation of thoughts and the interaction between individuals is the ONLY way of building a new society. It is liberty which creates new values and thoughts. Living under Radical Reactionary Socioeconomics, exploitation by aggressors and un-welcomed foreigners, or a non-enlightened administration weakens liberty. Furthermore, ideas come both from above and through human interaction. One of my new main priorities is to disseminate new ideas and thoughts; to give individuals the liberty they need to pursue ideas and that the government shall interpose itself between the people and both foreign aggressors/oppressors and those forms of tyranny that arise within society that opposes me and the Caliph. We must remember our common set of principles: the rejection of reactionists, total political liberalism, and pacifism; and the promotion of heroism, unification, global cooperation and collaboration, vitality, and valor. Within the current unstable conditions of the international community, An Abdulrahmanist "Liberal Democracy" is not compatible with the modern world, and therefore, we shall advocate for a strong state. Humans are naturally predatory and nations are in a constant struggle, in which only the strongest can and will survive.[/pre][/list]

After his speech, the audience would provide a respectful, controlled applause as the Prime Minister would hand over his speech to one of the assistants and leave the foyer down an aisle with a red carpet as he would be escorted to an official motorcade outside to transport the Prime Minister to his new office.

| TEHERAN, IRAN |

| The arrival of the French President in Tehran is one that is seen as positive. With the recent events in Africa and the recent tensions between France and the Arab World, especially with USIN, Iran has been observing the situation closely keeping the analysis to itself. The French President would be greeted by press with pressing questions and gathered crowds with flowers and flags. At the airport, Mr Macron would be greeted by the Foreign Secretary, Princess Nefreti Pahlavi before being taken off to the Golestan Palace through the beautiful streets of Tehran.

Once at the Palace, the limousine would stop and the Empress would emerge onto the stairs with a smile. Wearing a glowing pink dress that grew darker the lower it went, with a large blue scarf over the dress and her hair up she would extend her arms as the President went up the stairs. Kissing him on both cheeks after his bow, she would pose to pictures with the President before entering inside. Going through the vast beautiful corridors, she would lead him into her cabinet. Once inside, the Empress would gesture the President to take a seat as the aids poured hot tea for the two of them. The doors would close soon after and the Empress would release a smile. |

Now, I cannot decide for you who you recognise as a terrorist organisation and who you cannot, but our services have not found direct funding links between USIN, and terror organisations. I understand that there is issue between France and USIN, but maybe Tehran is the place for those issues to be solved? We seek to cooperate with everyone that benefits us.

The Uranium Route

With the start of construction of the new nuclear reactors that will supply the Nation, the Yugoslav government began negotiations with several countries to ensure the fuel that will supply these reactors. During negotiations, the government was not concerned only with importing the raw material, but also with obtaining the complete cycle of nuclear fuel production, from refining, transport, use to its disposal.

As for the raw material, the Yugoslav government signed an agreement with the Maghreb government for the import of raw uranium and its transport to the Port of Bar, the only one that will have the structure to carry out such an operation in a safe manner. On the issue of refining and other processes in the production cycle, several agreements were signed with the German government, which aim not only at the transfer of technology and knowledge of such processes, as well as financing the construction of the Podgorica Nuclear Fuel Factory, which will be capable of providing all the nuclear fuel necessary for the operation of the future powerplant. As a way to ensure the proper management of such knowledge, the agreement also provides for the creation of the Yugoslav–German Agency for Accounting and Control of Nuclear Materials (YGAAC), a binational safeguards agency playing an active role in the verification of the peaceful use of nuclear materials that could be used at the Podgorica Nuclear Fuel Factory and the Shkodër Nuclear Power Plant, either directly or indirectly, for the manufacture of weapons of mass destruction.

With such agreements signed, the Yugoslav government somehow managed to guarantee complete independence in the production of nuclear fuel for its future plant, thus ensuring national energy security.

[list][pre]| PRESIDENT ERDOGAN TO RE-ALIGN TURKEY AMID REFORMATION OF A COMMUNIST RUSSIA IN THE NORTH[/pre][/list]

[sub]Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the President of the Republic of Turkey, spoke at length about the reformation of a communist Russia in the north at a publicly-broadcasted meeting with top Turkish diplomats and high-ranking officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, including Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu, voicing his 'extreme concern' over the future of the Russian state, with whom Turkey had maintained decent relations with over the past few years. Until that moment, Turkey had been completely silent over the transformation of the Russian Federation into a communist union with Azerbaijan, Armenia and Belarus, but with the communists consolidating its control within Russia and the chances of a democratic Moscow returning now slim, President Erdogan deemed it the right time to voice his and his administration's opinions on the issue.[/sub]

[sub]Although Erdogan and Turkey's Foreign Minister affirmed that 'friendly relations with Moscow' was a 'strong priority' for the Turkish Government, the President stressed the need to 'ensure that Turkey's interests and security are ensured amidst this sudden geopolitical change with the Russians'. President Erdogan has, historically, been supportive of friendly relations with the Russians up north, and continues to do so today, albeit to a lesser extent due to the sudden change of leadership and ideology of the Russian state. At the meeting, President Erdogan emphasized Turkey's recent entry into the European Union, citing it as 'a strong sign that the West is beginning to accept Turkey as an ally'. He stated that Turkey needed to 'balance its partnerships with both the West and the new Communist Russia', but his rhetoric, according to numerous prominent Turkish news broadcasters, has shown that he is potentially going to re-align Turkey towards the West.[/sub]

[sub]Although the Edrogan Administration's alignments in relation to the West and the emerging Communist Russia remain unclear, the President and his Government has made it clear that the Republic of Turkey will be shifting its allegiances 'significantly' as the 'current regional and international geopolitical scene changes and evolves'. President Erdogan is also expected to release a formal statement on the emerging Russian state by December 31st at the latest, in order to make official Turkey's stance towards the new government in Moscow, but some claim that the recent televised meeting with Foreign Ministry officials and Turkish diplomats already represent Turkey's stance: A re-alignment of Turkish partnerships.[/sub]

| COMMUNIST AND NEO-NATIONALISTIC CELLS DESTROYED IN MASHHAD AND SHIRAZ |

[sub]December, 2026[/sub]

| During 2025, all major radical deemed parties and leaders were exiled from the country. The People's Voice Alliance, primarily Iranian-Socialistic and Communistic, the Purity and Light Movement, primarily Ethno-Nationalistic and Religious-Nationalistic, New Unity, primarily radical nationalistic and Iranian Rose Movement, primarily communistic were all disbanded and their leaders exiled. Ashref Fesri, leader of PVA, moved to Paris. Reza Pahlavi, leader of PLM moved to New York City. Bashin Rezi, leader of NU moved to Buenos Aires in Argentina. Marijan Savaid, the leader of IRM moved to Moscow. However, the battle has not finished yet with cells of those parties still operating around Iran in hiding.

Recently the cell of the Iranian Rose Movement was discovered in Mashhad. 45 members of the cell were arrested in broad daylight for instigating against the state of Iran and for spreading anti-state, anti-monarchy propaganda. One of the members has been identified as the vice-leader of the Iranian Rose Movement during 2020-2025 period. Mahran Asfab has been transported to the newly established special prison in Zavadan. All other members have been transported to the Mashhad Prison for Reformation, awaiting their trail. It is suspected that they will face at least 4 years in prison for their actions. In addition the cell of the Purity and Light Movement has been discovered in Shiraz. 50 members were arrested for instigating against the state of Iran and for spreading anti-state and anti-monarchy propaganda. None of the members have been higher ups of the movement before and all have been transported to the Shiraz Prison for Reformation. They all will face at least 4 years in prison.

The government has placed a particular crackdown on such cells, but, according to insiders there is an ongoing battle within the government about free-thinkers of Communism and Radical-Right in Iran. It is speculated that Prime Minister's faction is against cracking down on freethinkers whereas the faction of Ahbaz al-Jabir, Minister of Internal Security, wants a strong crackdown of such people, especially on the Radical-Right. The Prime Minister has not spoken out about the arrests but Ahbaz al-Jabir has stated that the arrests are a showcase of Iranian security forces, and the newly established IIS, the Iranian Internal Security, which by some has been deemed as the new secret police of Iran and by others as the government's tool separate from the Empress influence.

Right now there are only six active political parties. Iranian Unification Movement, Left United, Zoroastrian Centre, Islamic Democrats, Arab Youth Organisation and the Kurdistan Liberty Party. The crackdown on radical movements has been deemed by some as necessary evil to keep the country stable and prosperous but others have seen it as the beginningA of curbing democracy by the Monarchy and the start of the end of the political freedoms in Iran. What is interesting is how much more civil, economic and personal freedoms have flourished up to counter-balance but will that be enough? |

[spoiler="In order for Iran to continue being the stable oasis of the Middle East, and continue our incredible growth and journey back to our world position, internal security of the country must be kept under a strict control." - Minister of Internal Security, Ahbaz al-Jabir.]

| TOKYO — Ms. Seiko Noda, Former Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications under the Former Abe Administration (2012 — 2017/2021 — 2022), at a press conference held last Sunday, Noda officially announced that she would join the LDP presidential race commonly referred to as the “Presidential Ring”, thus forming a Leadership Election with 4 candidates over who will command the Empire of Japan? — At the level where things stand between Kishida V. Takashi, Noda just said “As long as there are no discussions that are considered insulting on both sides . . . we all have the right to express our opinions and ideals,” also adding “Just over 20 signatures were signed by LDP’s MPs, so that I could officially run for the Presidential Race.” |

| Seiko Noda utterly disapproves of Takaichi’s ideals, saying like many other politicians “The Empire of Japan must not and will not go back to the 20th century” — the ultra-conservatives faithfully defend the Japanese colonial system — and if Kishida wins the election, Japan will be “weak” — following the ultra-conservative concept. Ms. Noda even mentioned that Takaichi has ideals of making the Empire of Japan one of the most threatening nations in the world, as his goal will be to invade countries and become one of the worst politicians and join the ‘dictators club’. But Takaichi becoming next Prime Minister of Japan? — Is a non-existent reality. |

| Internationally, Takaishi has the support of Korean ultranationalist citizens, which suggests that these radicals want to see a war between the Kingdom of Korea Rutannia and the Empire of Japan. “The ideals of the far-right have no place here anymore,” Noda told reporters — It was highlighted by journalists that Noda will replace Shigeru Ishiba as the 4th candidate, as Ishiba announced on October 1st that he will no longer run in the Presidential Race. |

| [sub]The announcement of a no-confidence vote in Yi Jung-here’s leadership came as quite a shock to many, but murmurings of a challenge had been floating around the political world for several months. The chairman of Democratic Spring, Youn Kwan-suk, announced that 57 MPs from the party had put in a letter of no-confidence triggering a whole caucus ballot.[/sub] |

| [sub]The ballot was scheduled for three days later as all 377 MPs had to cast their vote for or against Yi Jung-hee’s leadership. The ballots were cast in the party’s main meeting room in the National Assembly over the course of 12 hours, if a majority voted against it would trigger a full leadership contest. Even if a majority don’t vote against him, how many do will plague on his leadership still.[/sub] |

| [sub]The results were announced at 7pm from the committee room in the National Assembly, out of the 377 MPs only one did not vote, which was Yi Jung-hee himself. Chairman Youn announced that 279 MPs voted for confidence in Yi’s leadership with 97 MPs voting for no confidence in Prime Minister Yi, the numbers speak for themselves, with the overwhelming amount backing his leadership. This also buys him immunity from a leadership challenge for the next year. For several weeks the media will analyse how MPs voted and drawing factional lines on the matter.[/sub] |

Newly Appointed Minister of National Shura Council on Energy Development Khalid Al-Falih Announces New Energy Infrastructure Development Measures & Projects

خالد الفالح وزير تطوير الطاقة المعين حديثاً في مجلس الشورى الوطني يعلن عن اجراءات ومشاريع جديدة لتطوير البنية التحتية للطاقة

[sub]Caliph Abdullah bin al-Hussein Abdulrahman I | ABU DHABI, 2026 [/sub][/list]

[sub]| DAWLAT ALAITIHAD LIL'UMAT AL'IISLAMIA - ادولة الاتحاد للأمة الإسلامية |[/sub]

[pre]After the appointment of Mohammad Al-Thani to the new Prime Minister position, Al-Thani immediately took to work to form a government that reflects his Islamic Populism and Abdulrahmanist ideological agenda. Dealing with energy and energy development, Mohammad Al-Thani appointed His Excellency Khalid Al-Falih, who is the current Chairman of Saudi Aramco and used to serve as the former Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Energy, Industry and Mineral Resources. With such expertise, Khalid Al-Falih has been tasked with full reign over developing modern energy policy and initiatives for development. Without hesitation, Khalid Al-Falih would relocate to Abu Dhabi to begin his post as Minister of the National Shura Council on Energy Development & Mineral Resources along with giving an announcement regarding immediate new plans.

For Minister Al-Falih, the Islamic Jamahiriyah of Arabia will be embarking on a new multi-billion energy initiative to connect the oil and gas fields and refinery facilities to Aden, Salalah, Duqm, Al-Mukalla, and Al-Hudaydah ports to expand energy export potential via pipelines. Major transport and logistical hubs have been coordinated to be positioned in Sana'a to oversee USIN energy exports in Southern Arabia. It is expected for the al-Thani administration to look at expanding energy infrastructure in Somaliland as part of this greater push to increase energy-based interconnectivity and adequate secure energy supply lines. To ensure this, Al-Falih has begun the coordination to provide $10-30 billion toward expanding energy resource exploration in Somaliland as it is projected that there is at least 40 billion barrels of oil and natural gas yet to be extracted from Somaliland.

With 2 billion barrels of oil and gas already confirmed and being connected to a new energy apparatus within the region, it is the hope of Al-Falih to transform the Gulf of Aden to become an energy-driven economic hub similar to the Persian-Arabian Gulf as oil and gas deposits and facilities in Yemen are coming onto the overall energy grid of the Caliphate. With the occupation of both sides of the Aden Gulf, Al-Falih is looking to utilize the coastlines of both Somaliland and Yemen to produce major economic stimulus via mineral resources and energy deposits to aggressive target major zones of poverty and impoverishment.

Furthermore, with offshore oil deposits discovered by the French upon Paris' occupation of Djibouti and informing Abu Dhabi of possible spill over of said oil deposits into the Caliphate's EEZ and territorial waters in Somaliland, Minister Al-Falih has authorized for the National Shura Council on Energy Development & Mineral Resources to coordinate with private energy companies in joint venture partnerships to initiate deep sea exploration in addition to beginning the process for offshore energy infrastructure to extract. Understanding new ports and facilities for storage will be needed in the region, Minister Al-Falih has decided that it is the objection for the Caliphate to seek the construction of 4-6 new energy-based facilities needed for refining, processing, storage, and shipment between 2026-2030 within the Aden Gulf to spur economic development, employment, and reinvestment into the Gulf's economy.[/pre]

Wearing a short dark purple glowing dress under a dark purple jacket, white high heels and her hair up and flowing, she would smile slightly at the press and people gathered as she made her way to whoever was to meet her. This was a tough meeting to be had, but it seemed that the 30-year-old Princess was more than prepared for her role and her importance in the creation of the new Iranian policy. |

As opposed to previous visits of foreign representatives, the procedures to receive the Iranian princess were unusual. Aside from the noticeable increase in the number of personnel lining the carpet to the motorcade the service uniforms and pale blue peaked caps of the KKC regularly tasked with protection of VIPs would be replaced with the black balaclavas and VKBO suits of the Triple-K howling commandos.

Also unusual would be the absence of First Vizier of the Foreign Nasgul Zholodoshova, in her place Deputy Vizier of the Foreign Asena Ibnat-Aslan Kuzma, daughter of Shah Aslan Ra’s-Kuzma would receive the guest. Deputy Vizier Kuzma wearing a three piece suit consisting of a white dress shirt and suit vest, matching pale blue suit jacket and dress pants, a citrine yellow ribbon bow tie and black boots, she would reach to shake her contemporary’s hand.

THE REPUBLIC OF THE ANTILLES: THE RED BANNER WAVES

Today is the day that will forever impact the Americas. The same idea that was once left for dead, but is now back in force, against all odds.

Today, Vania Lubin, Antonio Castro, and Manuel Salazar, have announced the formation of La República De Las Antillas, Repiblik Zantiy yo. The union now consists of the former countries of Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and Cuba.

Timeline of Events:

Port Au-Prince, 2026

The unstable government had again been under pressure for alleged corruption and neglect, as another giant storm had hit the island of Hispaniola. However, this time, an ideological opposition formed, funded directly from Castro's pockets. Around September 2026, protests and riots would rock the capital as the red banner would be flown throughout the stress, with frequent skirmishes with the military. On November 18th, the communist paramilitary, militias, and civilians stormed the National Palace, subsequently forcing the resignation of the cabinet. Lubin from the balcony would proclaim the Communist regime successful, ending an era of corruption, instability, and secrecy.

Santo Domingo, 2026

A less violent process would take place here, but still Castro funded. A democratic process would take place, with the socialist FP party winning. From then on, a list of changes preparing them for the eventual unification would occur, with gradual reforms in property laws and tax laws.

Present: Havana, December 30th, 2026

The three leaders would be present on the balcony, with Antonio Castro being in the center, with his signature cuban cigar in his left hand, and his right hand waving to the crowds. From then on, it would be history. The Communist Regime would officially take control and unite the three peoples and the two islands.

Unity Makes Strength.

As opposed to previous visits of foreign representatives, the procedures to receive the Iranian princess were unusual. Aside from the noticeable increase in the number of personnel lining the carpet to the motorcade the service uniforms and pale blue peaked caps of the KKC regularly tasked with protection of VIPs would be replaced with the black balaclavas and VKBO suits of the Triple-K howling commandos.

Also unusual would be the absence of First Vizier of the Foreign Nasgul Zholodoshova, in her place Deputy Vizier of the Foreign Asena Ibnat-Aslan Kuzma, daughter of Shah Aslan Ra’s-Kuzma would receive the guest.

[sub]The Conservative Manifesto: A Better Britain[/sub][/list]

GRAND BRIGHTON HOTEL, SUSSEX, BRIGHTON, Canovia — MORNING

[sub]As the world entered 2027, new goals and ambitions were needed in order to ensure prosperity and progress for the United Kingdom. Each year, the major political parties of the United Kingdom would hold conferences — often to recruit new members and talk about their goals and plans for that year or announce major changes in party politics. This year would mark seventeen years of Conservative dominated politics in the United Kingdom. Although going through four Prime Ministers during that time, each had their own agendas on how the party and the country could move forward.[/sub]

[sub]It would be one full year since Rishi Sunak would be appointed Prime Minister. Praised as an excellent Chancellor of the Exchequer, he was often rumoured to succeed Boris Johnson as leader and prime minister. Within his first year, he managed to ramp up funding towards infrastructure and defence projects — which was a part of Boris Johnson’s Build Britain Better campaign. However, the first month of his premiership was heavily criticised as Home Secretary Chris Philp proposed the controversial National Security and Surveillance Act, which sought to increase surveillance of the public to deter crime. As a result, the proposal was shot down and to be “re-evaluated” for future debate.[/sub]

[sub]With the sudden involvement in the Congo also furthering the disapproval of Sunak’s premiership, many within the Labour Party and opposition demanded his resignation or to call a snap election. With the Conservatives having only a small majority within the House of Commons, Rishi would reject any calls for elections or resignation. As the 2028 general election was only a year away, the Conservatives would have to change their national image to keep the confidence of the average voter.[/sub]

[sub]A small little conference was being held usually in the Conservatives’ frequent spot of Brighton. With this short conference target towards new, indecisive or established Conservatives, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak would share the plans for 2027.[/sub]

[list]RISHI SUNAK, Prime Minister: [sub]”Hello and welcome ladies and gentlemen to this unusual Conservative Party conference. We have entered a new year — a year which I am determined to make prosperous and healthy. Before we get started, I would like to take a moment to reflect on the previous year. We started 2026 rather disorganised. From controversial proposals to sudden decisions, it has not been a terrific year. However, I am a man who believes in trial and error and from my time as prime minister, I have learnt many things — things that I now know not to do. Anyways, this year shall be different. This year marks seventeen years of Conservative governance and the people need something new. We need to go in a new direction in order to move forward. This year is about change and we desperately need it. Over the last seventeen years, we have made tremendous progress, made new relationships and most of all, made this country better than it was pre-2010. Now, a brief summary on what is to come. We shall continue our commitment to improving our infrastructure. This is a focus which will impact us for years to come. Better roads, better transportation, new schools and hospitals and new and improved energy services. We are also committed to bettering our armed forces to better defend ourselves and our territories, as well as committing our pledge to NATO. We must completely re-evaluate our foreign policy, which in the last year has been completely unacceptable. We shall implement a policy called “diplomacy first, action second” in order to avoid any disastrous consequences. Here at home, we shall continue to support our front-line workers such as police officers and our NHS workers. Lastly, we shall make the United Kingdom the place of business and opportunity. We shall help small and medium size businesses and create an opportunity for all to start their own businesses in the United Kingdom with ease. 2027 shall be a great year for the people. Unlike the Labour Party, we have delivered on our promises. Let’s continue to do that. Thank you![/sub]

[pre]December 2026 | Ministry of Treasury and Finance Office, Ankara, Republic of Turkey[/pre]

[list][pre]| RECEP TAYYIP ERDOGAN PLEDGES TO BOLSTER TURKISH ECONOMIC GROWTH AMID SLIPPING PUBLIC SUPPORT[/pre][/list]

[sub]Recep Tayyip Erdogan has served as the Republic of Turkey's head of state for over twelve years, now having been in power since 2014. Although at first his government was popular among the Turkish people for its aggressive attitude towards protecting Turkish interests at home and worldwide, the government opposition against Erdogan, composed mainly of liberals and progressives who see Erdogan as too right-wing or too conservative, or both, has been silently gaining ground in the Republic for years, with the 2018 and 2023 elections clearly showing President Erdogan's slipping grip on power. Although Erdogan has already stated that he will be stepping down during the 2028 national elections, the President has continued to lobby for support for his preferred successor, his son, Ahmet Burak Erdogan. However, with the government opposition de facto led by the progressive Meral Aksener, it is certain the 2028 presidential race will be a tight and unpredictable one.[/sub]

[sub]For now, though, President Erdogan has sought to solidify public support for him and his party, even though said support has been slipping away slowly but surely for years now. At a live public speech from the Ministry of Treasury and Finance Office in Ankara, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan pledged 'my government's best and strongest efforts' towards bolstering Turkish economic growth, aiming to have an annual GDP growth of 4.5% annually by 2030, according to remarks from Turkey's Minister of the Treasury and Finance, Lütfi Elvan. The announcement was extremely vague, with President Erdogan failing to provide ways on how his promised economic growth could be achieved. This fact was seized upon by Aksener and the government opposition, who called the promise 'vague, empty, and a lie to the Turkish people'. Aksener publicly demanded at a rally for Erdogan to increase government transparency and cut down on corruption rather than pumping more money into the economy, the former of which Aksener claimed was the real cause behind Turkey's 'limited' economic growth.[/sub]

[sub]Although the Turkish Minister of Treasury and Finance, Lütfi Elvan, affirmed that President Erdogan had a 'sincere goal to bolster and expand the Turkish economy and Turkish opportunities', he himself stated that he had 'no idea' what the President had planned. With 2027, the upcoming national elections, and Erdogan's resignation in 2028, Recep Tayyip Erdogan has very little time to achieve his goals - and keep his party in power both within the executive and legislative branches of the Government of the Republic of Turkey.[/sub]

Hello, welcome to COL! First, you have to read our Prologue here: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=497355

Next, take a look at our Geopolitical Roleplay Map here to see which places are free. Note that we RP as real life countries here, not as our NS nations. This map isn't 100% up-to-date, so make sure to confirm with Paramountica whether or not the spot is actually free or not.

Finally, just telegram Paramountica with your claim and once its been approved you can start roleplaying!
