| President Bemba | Well, Zaire has some of Africas most spectacular urban and rural wildlife centres, I was wondering how interested South Africans would be in visiting Zaire. Perhaps if not tourism, then student exchange programmes and cultural collabs, like famous Zollywood actors appearing in South African TV shows & vice versa.

ZAIREAN FOREIGN MINISTRY:
While we appreciate Japans charity we humbly decline the $250 million. If Mitsubishi Financial Group truly wishes to support Zaire, it should invest in the Zairean Weapons Corporation & our technology sector. We suggest that Japan be more proactive in its foreign policy towards Zaire considering we are the beating Heart of Africa

Spain expresses interest in developing strong relations with Zaire, invites Kinshasa to bilateral talks
| During a televised interview for Informativos Telecincos, a major Spanish news corporation based in Madrid, Spain's Foreign Minister, Arancha Gonzalez Laya, stated that Spain is 'strongly interested' in developing strong and close economic and diplomatic ties with various African nations, particularly Zaire. During the interview, she noted that 'Zaire's economic development has been surprisingly rapid and continuous, which is a great environment for Spanish businesses to settle in'. |
| Spanish relationships with African countries in recent months have been growing significantly, with the country establishing strong and fruitful ties with Cote D'Ivoire, Nigeria, and Tanzania in the last two to three months alone. In October of last year, Prime Minister Augustina Torres unveiled Focus Africa 2030, a Spanish diplomatic plan for approaching African countries. The plan stated that the country should - and has started to - focus on developing and approving agreements from which both nations will be able to benefit from. And, according to senior diplomats at the Foreign Ministry, the best way to achieve such agreements is through the utilization of investments into various African industries. |
| And, justly, the Foreign Minister stated that Spain wishes to 'invoke' these principles in a possible economic agreement with Zaire. Spain, according to Ms. Laya, is willing to invest hundreds of millions and possibly even billions of dollars into various Zairean sectors of industry, particularly clean energy production, infrastructure, housing, and the oil industry. She expressed, on the behalf of the Foreign Ministry she said, great hope that a Spanish-Zairean partnership in economics will 'benefit both nations greatly and will further urge the range of opportunities to grow rapidly in both countries'. |
| And so, days after the interview on Informativos Telecincos, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Spain released a formal memorandum inviting the Zairean government to hold diplomatic bilateral talks to discuss the possibilities of expanding economic relations, trade, and diplomatic dialogue between the two countries, which, according to Deputy Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, 'have been greatly influential in the African scene'. |

SUDAN-EU SUMMIT AT THE COUNCIL WITH COMMISSIONNER LAGARDE AND COUNCIL PRESIDENT LIMBURG
There was a wave of optimism today as the Prime Minister of Sudan arrived for his long awaited meeting with the European Union. Many topics would be taken into consideration and notably the possibility of easier trade relations. The talks would at first be private as per regulations. Sensitive areas would also be covered and notably the recent events surrounding Sudan and the security concerns the EU and Sudan may both have and in which agreements could be formed.
What is clear is that the position of Sudan could be determined today from the outcome of those talks between the President of the Commission Christine Lagarde and President of the Council Thorsten Limburg.
SKIP
Both leaders of the EU shook hands with Prime Minister Binallah with smiles for the camera. Together they walk towards the Concilium room where the meeting is supposed to take place. The table is small to maintain an informal athmosphere. However, the papers were many.
President of the Council, Thorsten Limburg : Prime Minister, it is a great pleasure to see you today. I know this meeting has been long awaited and we have prepared it for quite a while now. There are many topics to discuss but let me tell you that The European Union and many of its Member States consider Sudan as a valuable ally in Africa. And that is why there is much optimism about the outcome of today and perhaps tomorrow if necessary. I know that there has been some tensions perhaps over certain events but this shouldnt stop efforts for both of us to get closer together.

But with the tyrant's death comes new opportunities and beginnings. We would also want to keep allied relations with your government, because we do both have interests. I would like to start by proposing an infrastructure project from your nation to our port in Gwadar, which is fast growing and is already booming, soon to be a world class city. That way we can make sure your goods reach the market, and further ensure our success.[/sub]
|Shah Kuzma| "That would align perfectly with our plans to utilize the Caspian coast, we have already started an initiative to turn our two coastal cities of Aktau and Atyrau into world class trading ports and revitalize the business hubs. In addition we also plan to build up two cities south of those from the ground up to follow suite in the future, these cities will be given special economic privileges to ensure their financial success, we hope that Aktau will someday challenge Baku as the pearl of the Caspian. I believe Turani investors would be ecstatic to support the Gwadar hub if it meant a clear link from the coastal markets to Pakistan."

| A new finding in a matter of importance? |
| April 2025 |
___________________________________________
it was discovered this afternoon that a higher prevelace of Thermal Hotspots than previously thought have been discovered below the surface. As a country that has been on the Circum-Pacific belt also known by its more informal term "the ring of fire" it is of some to no suprise. But what was discovered and heavily discussed is that these new locations are in spots that are easy to get to with existing infastruchure and out of ways of existing communities of both urban, suburban and less developed areas. With this startling discovery using radar and geo-scanning instruments it is likely with these keys in place a future of geo-thermal integration could come into play within the coming years.
With new recently in place environmental plans and a need for a replacement of decades old coal and oil based infrastructure this has come to us like a messiah.
Meanwhile recent talks in the engineering department of the energy board have proven there is a estatic and undeniable haze of wonder in the air
Issac Islo: [board member and retired engineer] "now what i love most is that with these marvels of technology we can do what others in this goverment couldn't dream of thirty, twenty, hell even ten years ago."
he looks off to the side of the office room and starts making drawings on a white board doted with other scribbles new and old.
"Soon we can make a catch up you can call it! A catch up in these days. we have oh so fallen behind in the the years of apathy, stagnation and lack of care and concern."
his other board members look on impressed some a little less appealed by his usual exotic and estatic nature.
Carly Gerilio: [board member and Head of the IT department] "Well i suppose we can all agree one way or another this is a inovation and good for all, now moving on other matters.."
she wipes of the white board to start on a new discussion.
on top of this new found discovery the country has decided to branch out in the terms of relations and formalities with other nations which will be done soon wether that be threw a formal declaration of embassies or even possibly a declorated leader meeting.

Franco's Legacy, Part 3: Order and Progress
| Orden y Progreso. These three words were prominent among the flags and banners of Equatorial Guinean civilians and citizens as the Spanish Governor-General of the colony spoke in front of the Spanish Foreign Ministry office in Malabo, on the northern coast of Bioko Island. These words, Orden y Progreso, resonated throughout the country as they represented the future of Spanish rule in Equatorial Guinea. Order and Progress. Essentially, the Spanish authorities will bring order, and thus progress, to the colony through the continuation of established and strong law enforcement and the oversight of free and fair regional elections. Orden y Progreso is and will be the basis and the cornerstone of future Spanish rule and sovereignty over Equatorial Guinea. |
[list]| Victor Suances Diaz del Rio, Governor-General of Spanish Guinea | "...Buenos dias! Buenos dias! Today, my fellow Equatorial Guineans and Spaniards, my office received news from the capital that, for the first time in years, our great colony will be subject to major modernization projects, liberal and democratic reforms, and efforts to grant Equatorial Guinea and her citizens greater and more generous autonomy. I assure you, as Governor-General of this great colony, I will implement and support these efforts to make our colony the richest on the African continent. Viva Espana!"[/list]
| Governor-General Diaz del Rio was Equatorial Guinea's incumbent and surprisingly most popular Governor-General at the time. He was credited for introducing mild reforms such as the modernization of roads in Malabo, Bata and Mbini, and the construction of intersection stoplights and the introduction of a reformed traffic police force in major Equatorial Guinean cities. While these reforms were minor, they most certainly have the Equatorial Guinean natives hope that the Spaniards were going to start treating them better. This hope was squashed a little when Spanish troops arrived and began quashing the violent pro-independence militia groups, but it was renewed in strength when Governor-General Diaz del Rio announced the reforms (quote above). |
| Weeks before the Governor-General's jubilant announcement that warranted great celebrations in the streets of Malabo and other Equatorial Guinean cities, Spain's dictator and head of state, Francisco Franco, convened the Spanish Cortes in the Palacio de las Cortes in Madrid, the nation's capital. This was a rare occurrence, as Franco was more prone to taking the advice of his ultranationalistic self or of his closest friends and advisors. That was why as the politicians entered the main chamber, their mood was generally happy and cheerful, even as they sat on their seats plagued by dust and cobwebs due to months and some even years of unuse. In the days after, the politicians got to work arguing, debating, fighting through words, and most of the time just throwing insults and those who opposed them. Amidst all this chaos, they finally got a final draft on their so-called Spanish Colonial Code of 1975. |
| The Spanish Colonial Code of 1975, as it was known when it was signed into law by Franco, is a set of rules, regulations, and reforms that were introduced and are applicable to all overseas possessions of the Kingdom of Spain not formally a province of the mainland. These reforms were intended to develop Spain's colonies, which was now only Equatorial Guinea, into rich, prosperous, and equalized states ruled by locals, for locals. The Colonial Code was also introduced in order to encourage rapid economic growth in Equatorial Guinea, as what had been seen with Zaire which was still under Belgian rule. |
[list]| Political reforms introduced by the Spanish Colonial Code |
All Spanish territories and possessions deemed by the Spanish Colonial Ministry as 'colonies' and not outrightly annexed provinces of the State shall be ruled from now on by a local citizen of that Colony, who has met all educational requirements, and has no criminal record to their name. This local citizen, upon his or her election as the head of the colony, shall be known as the Governor of the Colony and shall act as the liasion between the Spanish central government, the Spanish Colonial Ministry, and the local government. This Governor shall be elected by Equatorial Guinean locals every four years, in an election overseen by Spanish authorities.
The establishment of political parties based on the beliefs of their founders and members shall be from now on be deemed legal, as long as these parties continue to abide by the Colonial Code and the rules and regulations established to oversee local elections for the colony's legislature and executive offices. Parties may be established with the approval of the Spanish Colonial Political Affiliation Ministry (SCPA). [CLAUSE 1] The SCPA will be disbanded by the Spanish government by the year 2000 A.D. so as to allow colonial natives the full and absolute freedom to establish any form of political party as long as it conforms to all rules and regulations.
All non-native Spaniards currently serving in administrative, legislative, and judicial offices in the Colony must and will be switched out with new local citizens who meet the educational requirements, does not possess a criminal record, and has secured a clear victory in a local election.
All colonial natives who have surpassed the age of 21 shall be deemed allowed to serve in public office as long as they conform to the requirements mandated by their position of choice.
All colonial natives who have surpassed the age of 18 shall be given a Colonial Voters' ID and be given the free right to vote in local elections of their free will.
All colonial natives who have surpassed the age of 25 shall be given the full right to vote in Spanish national elections, which decide on the nation's prime minister and legislative officers.[/list]
[list]| Economic reforms introduced by the Spanish Colonial Code |
All colonial natives - Spanish nationals living in Spanish colonies excluded - shall not be taxed in any way or form unless they have been granted the full right to vote in Spanish national elections [Rights and prerequisites mentioned in Point VI, Political reforms].
All colonial natives of 18 years of age or older shall be eligible to establish their own private corporation or business without government interference. These businesses will be taxed 2.1% less than normal Spanish-run businesses so as to provide an incentive for local Equatorial Guineans to establish their own businesses and begin rapid privatization of the economy.[/list]
[list]| Social reforms introduced by the Spanish Colonial Code |
Discrimination against natives and non-Spaniards are prohibited by law, and the violation of this law will result in no less than one year in prison and a fine of at least $1,200 USD.
All businesses, public and private, are required to serve all clients to their best abilities without bringing up issues of race, gender, creed, color, or nationality.
Native parents of newborns will be guaranteed paid leave off up to one week before the expected birth of the child and up to three months after the child is born.
All colonial natives will be given the right, guaranteed by the government, to apply for and work in any profession or job they so choose. Should a business, public or private, turn away a potential worker applicant due to issues of race, gender, creed, color, or nationality, a fine of up to $5,000 USD will be charged and those directly involved in the turning away of a potential worker applicant will be sentenced to at most one month in prison.
All colonial natives living within the borders and territories of the Spanish State shall have their rights secured and protected by the government of Spain. These natives will also possess the same rights as that of Spanish nationals and citizens.[/list]
| When these reforms were announced by the Governor-General's office in Equatorial Guinea and by Franco in Madrid, many were pleasantly surprised, especially in Equatorial Guinea. Natives celebrated in the streets of Malabo and other major Equatorial Guinean cities, while Spanish businessmen and entrepreneurs slouched at the new laws established to prevent discrimination due to issues of race, gender, creed, color, or nationality. Franco, at a press conference from Barcelona, announced on the 24th of October that these new pieces of legislation would be placed into effect at the crack of dawn on the 31st of October, Madrid time. |
| In the eyes of many - including the United Nations, Franco, the government officials in the Cortes, and the natives who have previously been suffering under Spanish rule - these reforms represented something more than a tool to appease the natives and ensure that Spain kept her sole colonial possession in West Africa. They represented Order and Progress, both of which are the key to economic and political success on the world stage. These reforms, while unknown to many Spaniards at the time, would soon be introduced to the entire country, in the main provinces, the autonomous regions and territories, and her colony. |
| However, sadly, Francisco Franco would never be able to reap the benefits of his generous reforms and changes to Spanish law. On the 31st of October, hours after the Colonial Code came into effect, Franco fell into a coma and was placed on life support in Madrid. On the 20th of November, 1975, his family agreed to disconnect the life-support equipment. A few minutes after midnight on the 21st of November, his government office announced his death from heart failure, at the age of 82. A state funeral was held three days later, a day after Juan Carlos was proclaimed King of the newly established Kingdom of Spain. Francisco Franco was interred at the Valle de las Caidos, a monument built by the forced labor of political prisoners to honor the casualties of both sides of the Spanish Civil War. |
| Order and Progress had been established as the cornerstones of Spanish rule over Equatorial Guinea, and over the next few years and decades the colony reformed into a Spanish overseas autonomous department with extreme amounts of autonomy and home rule, with a full 50-person legislature and a Supreme Court being established for the Spanish department. The Overseas Autonomous Department of Equatorial Guinea hit gold when a Paramerican oil corporation discovered massive oil reserves in the country, followed by the discovery of large deposits of rare minerals and stones like gold. With the discovery of large natural resource deposits in the country and liberal and democratic home rule leadership at the top, Equatorial Guinea soared into sky-high prosperity. |

President of the Council, Thorsten Limburg : The European Union looks for stable partners in trade and in security. I personally believe Sudan to be a good asset on both. The EU never betrays its friends. Furthermore we see an opportunity to ease trade with Sudan. Recent reports from the Commission suggests lower tariffs could benefit both our economies. Is this something Sudan is willing to consider ? Easing trade with the EU ? Furthermore, we are looking forward to cooperation in other sectors I will discuss later.

[list]Former Pres. Alexander Lukashenko convicted of corruption, abuse of office, and dereliction of duty by Constitutional Court of Belarus[/list]
| Over the past few weeks, one of the longest trials in the history of Belarus has been taking place. Former President Alexander Lukashenko was accused of corruption, embezzlement, abuse of office and dereliction of duty and ever since he was detained by military forces at the Presidential Palace outside of Minsk, the Belarusian people have been calling for him to be placed on trial for committing crimes against humanity, corruption, abuse of office, and dereliction of duty, among other things.
On the 21st of May, 2025, the Lukashenko Trial came to an end when the presiding judge, The Honorable Judge Alla Bodak of the Constitutional Court of Belarus, announced her verdict with the advising of a neutral jury. |
The Honorable Judge Alla Bodak: "Good day, good day to you all. Case 4547V. Continued, Day 25. Defendant, Alexander Lukashenko. Mr. Lukashenko, your verdict will be delivered shortly. Sirs and madams. Today, all members of our jury have submitted their final verdicts for the Lukashenko, Alexander, accused of corruption, embezzlement, abuse of office, and dereliction of duty. Your verdicts, sirs and madams [talking to the jury]?"
Jury Representative, Sector 1 through 5: "Good day, your Honor. On the behalf of Sectors 1 through 5, representing Medicine, Healthcare, Government, Transportation, and the Judiciary. We deliver a verdict of GUILTY on all counts."
Jury Representative, Sector 6 through 10: "Your Honor [bowing]. On the behalf of Sectors 6 through ten, representing Labor Unions, Manufacturing, Roads and Highways, and Railways. We deliver a verdict of GUILTY on all counts."
Jury Representative, Sectors 11 through 15: "Madam Judge. On the behalf of Sectors 11 through 15, representing Public Works, Civil Service, Legislature, Energy and Weapons Manufacturing. We deliver a verdict of GUILTY on all counts."
The Honorable Judge Alla Bodak: "And do all of you, members of the jury, approve and announce that these are your official and final verdicts for this trial? I'm sure you all know that should it be discovered that these given and final verdicts were changed due to some sort of bribe, there will be extensive consequences."
| All members of the jury nod in assent. Judge Bodak turned to the observers, to the defendant, and to the press officials in the rear of the courtroom. She gave them all a cursory glance over her square and steel-rimmed eyeglasses before taking those glasses off and beginning to speak. |
The Honorable Judge Bodak: "With the assent of the assembled Jury and that of mine, this Constitutional Court of the Republic of Belarus, on the 21st of May, the Year of our Lord 2025, I hereby declare the Defendant, Alexander Lukashenko, guilty on all counts of corruption, embezzlement, abuse of office, and dereliction of duty. He is hereby sentenced to life in maximum security prison, with no hope for appeal, pardon, or parole. Good day to all of you."
| As Judge Bodak's gavel bangs on her stately desk, the observers and the members of the jury begin chattering wildly. Lukashenko looks down, apparently disappointed, but also with a look that said he knew the verdict was coming. |
| On the 21th of May, 2025, Alexander Lukashenko was convicted of all crimes he was accused of committing. However, the former President was not declared guilty of crimes against humanity and war crimes, both of which, according to Judge Bodak, would have to be decided by an audience of the International Court of Justice or the Court of Justice of the European Union. Alexander Lukashenko was sent to a maximum-security penitentiary in northern Belarus, with no hope of appeal, pardon or parole. |

MAN NAMED BISHOP ALFONSO CLAIMS BIBLICAL FIGURE SIMON OF CYRENE WAS ZAIREAN, GAINS MASSIVE FOLLOWING
[list]Prior to the late 1940s, most native Zaireans didnt have the option to receive an education outside of the Catholic Church which had huge power during this period of the colonial era. However, in 1960 when the Belgians instituted reforms in the colony, the first native Governor-General of the country, Joseph Kasa-Vubu who was a Protestant, removed the Catholic Churchs power by putting education in the hands of the colonial government. Post-independence, after Mobutu took power in 1994, his nationalist policies led to an increase in Zairean self pride & a decrease in the popularity of the Catholic Church which was viewed as a symbol of colonial oppression. Since then, independent Baptist Zairean churches with their own cult-like followings emerged with Christianity becoming less organised and more spiritual in Zaire.
With over 68% of the population having access to social media, it was not uncommon that new preachers proclaimed their church to be the true church & that all Zaireans should follow their Church, gaining followings from social media.[/list]
There were hundreds of such preachers, however none were growing as fast a man named Bishop Alfonso, founder of the Simonist Church. Bishop Alfonso claims that Simon of Cyrene, a man mentioned in the New Testament of the Bible as an African who held Jesus cross on his way to crucifixion & was therefore blessed for all eternity, was in fact a Zairean. According to Bishop Alfonso, because of Simon of Cyrene receiving Jesus blessing being Zairean, all Zaireans who come to the Simonist Church are blessed & receive Jesus eternal promise to Simon.
Bishop Alfonso currently has 20 million followers on Mzee (a Zairean version of Instagram), 6.2 million followers on Twitter and Youtube channel with 11 million subscribers.
[list]According to Pew Research & Statista, by 2030, the Simonist Church could very will be the 2nd largest denomination on of Christianity in Zaire, which is currently dominated by Baptist Protestantism which replaced Catholicism in the 90s & 00s.
During his tour of the nation, President Bemba recently declared that of all the churches in Zaire, the Simonist Church was the one with the most truth to it. This huge endorsement has legitimised Bishop Alfonso & many wonder whether President Bemba will in fact fund & support the growth of the Simonist Church due to its patriotic nature which may align with President Bembas agenda.[/list]

Anti-Philanialle Protests In Baghdad Neighborhood
_______________
BAGHDAD (KG)- Organized protests against the Japanese occupation of North Borneo continued into their second day today in the Baghdad neighborhood of Azamiya. Azamiya, a Sunni majority neighborhood, is a historical hotbed for social and political activism and the site of frequent protests and demonstrations. Sparked by the creation of the North Borneo Police Guard, protest leaders have doubled down on calls for the end of Japanese presence in Borneo. Protestors have criticized the NBPG, saying it is no different than the previous Japanese military force. Some have also suggested it is an attempt at social normalization of Japanese occupation, a step towards total annexation of North Borneo into Japan. The protests are largely religiously oriented, focused on the defense of Bornean Muslims. North Borneo has a population of 6.5 million, 3.2 million of which are Sunni Muslims.* Protestors have shown support for Bornean rebels, designated by Tokyo as terrorists. The Foreign Ministry has not commented on the situation in Borneo, which has been a point of tension in Asia for years.
* I calculated based on Wikipedia's demographic numbers and population.

[sub]VTH REPUBLIC | PARIS, 2025 [/sub][/list]
[sub]| HELM OF SÈCURITÈ, MINISTÈRE DES FORCES ARMÉES - | As part of the Warfighter FR-2025 exercise between French and Romanian forces, the French Navy has deployed to the Black Sea for the first time in nearly 10 years to conduct the sea portion of a much broader full-scale military exercise involving units from the 70,000 French troops and air force assets stationed in Romania at bases in Bucharest, Constanța, and Chișinău. The exercises are to include land, air, and maritime operations which will see the forces of both France and Romania fully integrated and working in tandem to eliminate hypothetical wartime threats against Romania itself and NATO as a whole. A secured message has been sent to the Kremlin (Victoria Harbor) informing Russia of the planned exercises and increased French naval presence in the Black Sea. The Warfighter exercise is meant to build force cohesion and reiterate France's message that the Vth Republic stands with Romania and the rest of it's NATO allies. It is expected that President Macron will visit the troops in Romania towards the end of the month once the exercise has been completed. | [/sub]

[sub]THE EMPIRE OF JAPAN CELEBRATES 18TH ANNIVERSARY OF NORTH BORNEO.[/sub]
| It has been 18 years since the Empire of Japan annexed North Borneo and, since then, the region is considered a Japanese prefecture and several social projects have been carried out in North Borneo, both by the North Borneo General Government and by the Japanese Government itself. Of course, we cannot forget the negative side that the region has gone through and is still going through, which are precisely the terrorists 一 During the Abe Administration, North Borneo was practically militarized to fight terrorism, but ended up being demilitarized during the Shinjiro Administration and since then it has never been militarized. Only now did Prime Minister Suga show intentions to militarize North Borneo again, but this eventually leaked out and Suga dropped the plan. But in an attempt to take down the remaining terrorists, he created a police guard to defend his innocent citizens from the terrorist threat. |
| Now Prime Minister Suga has announced that he will leave Kantei and board the Japanese Air Force One bound for North Borneo to attend the 18th anniversary of North Borneo, celebrating the Japanese annexation that took place in 2009 一 This celebration will also be attended by several civilians who will wave the Japanese flag in the streets of New Sendai, the capital of North Borneo, formerly known as Bandar Seri Begawan. |

The people of the River {Gente del rio} were made up of those deportees from Paramerica Paramountica mostly from the state of California. This number only increased during the Trump Presidency and has stayed relatively stable in growth under the Biden administration. They were deported to México with some of them barely even speaking Spanish and without any paperwork to live a life in México. The heat of summer would melt them as they tried to catch at least some of the breeze from the nearby Pacific Ocean. The river bed was known for creating drug addicts and gang members of once hard working people due to desperation and depression. A clean needle program was strong and well trusted in the community with older women entering the canal to provide the residents of the Tijuana River with clean needles and sanitary products to slow the spread of disease caused by sharing needles.

May, 2025 - The Nubian Heritage Act
Amongst the ruins of Napata, there stood great orange pillars and walls raised from the sands of the Nubian desert under tho scorching heat of a Sudanese sun. This city in ruins was once the grand capital of a mighty Kushitic Empire that had occupied much of the lands between Khartoum and Aswan in Egypt. Napata had served as the first capital of the Nubian Kingdom of Kush until it was sacked by the Egyptians in 593BC forcing the new Kush capital to retreat to Meroë, a city that now sits along the way between Khartoum and Atbarah. Napata had continued to grow economically and geographically as the centuries raced by only to be once again sacked by the invading Roman armies. Yet once again the city was rebuilt and thrived. However as Meroë grew in power and wealth, Napata had found itself washed away by the desert sands as it's importance to Kush faded.
Millennials later as the earth has completed a quarter of the 21st century, in what was once Napata, now known as Karima in modern day Sudan, a crowd had gathered for the celebration of a special occasion. Prime Minister Zaim Binallah along with other prominent members of the tourism industry, the national parks industry, history and archeological students and scholars, as well as other figures of the Sudanese Northern State government and national government have gathered beneath the shade of Jebel Barkal as they take in the sights of the ancient Nubian Pyramids sitting south west of the great rock.
There, Zaim Binallah would also tour the area of the ruins of the Nubian Pyramids, temples houses, and placard while greeting the small amount of tourists found there coming from all over the world. Later he would sit on a randomly placed square desk as the press gather around Binallah with a view of the pyramids in the background as the setting sun leaves its shining light the faces of these pyramids. A paper ia then handed to him by one of his staff members as he then signs it in front of the cameras. The Nubian Heritage Act (NHA) had been officially passed.
Earlier in the month, the NHA Had been proposed by 15 Parliamentarians from the States of Northern, River Nile, and Khartoum. The Heritage Act was proposed in a response to increase and further promote tourism for the Sudanese Nubian Pyramids as well as other archeological remains of what was once Nubia. The NHA proposed $160 Million in funding for the better infrastructure in tourist sites and accommodations in the Northern and River Nile State and other towns and cities that are host to Nubian ruins. The infrastructure plans include easy access to and from the pyramids by constructing pathways, parking spots, various quick and rest areas including adequate bathrooms and nourishment facilities, the building of hotels and resorts near the ancient cities. Informational guides, tourist guides, as well as a cinema that shall play documentaries on Nubian history. As well as an expansion for Merowe Municipal Airport as it sees an increase in flights between Dongola, Port Sudan, and Khartoum International Airports. Other parts of the funding will go to constructing renovating bridges that will be crossing into Karima and to the sites of the Nubian city. The main part of the project is for the construction of an entire artifice Nubian Herritage Village meant to get visitors to experience life during the Nubian Era with stores, music, and clothes. The entire Nubian Heritage Act had been perceived as the pride and glory of a Black Civilization within Sudan. A country that has for long been given names like "the Nile's Homeland, Africa's gift or the door between Arabia and Africa"
Officials have praised the project as a great step to bring the world's attention to the once great Nile civilization of Nubia. The land of the original black Pharoahs. A project that shall yet remind the world of the wonders of the north African continent in the absence of a stable Egypt failing to meet the demands for some good old pyramid site seeing.

RALLIES OF THE FINNS PARTY SURGE AS MILITARY POSTURES IN LAPLAND
[list][sup]A NATION PUSHED TOWARD THE BRINK
FINLANDSPRING 2025[/sup][/list]
By the late spring of 2025, it seemed that the Finns Party stood colossal over Finland. The vision of a mystic, nationalistic Finlandone, of course, that did not sacrifice the luxuries of advanced welfare and democratic governmenthad apparently appealed to so many of Finland's young and active political persons, that where other nationalist parties would have failed, the Finns Party was surging. The Party had capitalized on the politicization of the world without question. Using social media and a call to the Finnish identity, polls by June indicated that the next legislative election, slated for 2027, would yield an unprecedented share for the Finns Party. Rallies were growing in number and now consumed every major city almost monthly. The party could not be better encapsulated than by Alvi Karvonen, a young firebrand legislator representing Savo-Karelia and noted for his interest in occult Finnish paganism, vehement nationalism and unflinching support of the Finnish welfare and social state"the web that links all Finns". He spoke earnestly on the recent Finnish peacekeeping mission in Sweden, encouraging the Parliament to support a Finnish annexation of the Torne River Valley.
Privately expecting that the Swedish and Norwegian militaries might become wary or deterring against Finland due to the prevalence of this rhetoric in Finnish politics, President Mykkänen, in consultation with the Prime Minister and Defense Minister, has coordinated the mobilization of 3,500 reservists in southern Finnish units for transferral to Lapland, where they will be stretched along the Swedish and Norwegian borders once supply lines for the fresh soldiers are firmly established. In addition, the Kainuu Brigade of 4,000 reservists is to partially deploy to a new garrison near Rovaniemi, though this is expected to take up to a month while supplies and equipment are transported north. Garrisons and stations for the soldiers are to be planned and constructed over the coming months, hinting at a more permanent militarization of the northern regions of Finland.

ABOA ANTARCTIC RESEARCH STATION EXPANDED, MADE YEAR-ROUND
[list][sup]ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WORLD
ANTARCTICASUMMER 2025[/sup][/list]
The Finnish Ministry of Employment and the Economy, together with the Finnish Antarctic Research Program, began long-discussed expansions on the Aboa research station in Antarctica in late June 2025. With generous grants from several of Finland's leading scientific universities, the research station was to receive double the accomodations for researchers and other staffers as well as equipment, provisions and materials for year-round inhabitationthe station is currently only staffed during summers. The post is also to receive a year-round garrison of four Finnish Army soldiers as well as an armored Sisu Nasua tracked transport vehicle of which there are already three unarmored models at the Aboa station. "A growing academia merits a growing capacity for research," explained Minister Mika Niikko, the electrician-turned-Minister of Employment and the Economy who publicly promoted the expansion, "and it is no secret that this proud country must more seriously assert its Antarctic presence." The addition of a small garrison was bitterly criticized by several parliamentarians, including Green League Vice Chairwoman Iiris Suomela, who said that it is "an unconsciable thing for Finland to put any weaponeven a rifleon the Antarctic continent, which must see nothing but peace."

THE JUÁREZ ACT - CENTROAMERICAN SEALINE CORPORATION IS CREATED / CENTROAMERICA DECLARES HAITI & THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC UNDER PROTECTORATE STATUS
JUNE 2025
The Centroamerican Parliament has today passed the Juárez act, authorizing the usage of 4.2 Billion USD in Government funds to create and maintain a Sea based Cargo Corporation which will see it take over the task of transporting Cargo to and from Centroamerica, as well as conducting intranational transportation due to the lack of proper Rail infrastructure within the Country. Of the 4.2 Billion USD, a total of 1.5 Billion shall be utilized directly for purchasing Ships. Despite close relations with Paramerica, Ships are to be purchased from various manufacturers within the European Union, as the average price per ship in the EU comparative to the USP is around 70% cheaper (due to the Jones act making Shipping more expensive in the latter). With that price advantage taken into account around 80 Ships of the 500 TEU class and below shall be purchased and around 40 of the 500-10,000 TEU class. The remainder of the Funds shall be utilized for training, maintenance, and to give a four year cushion of finances in order to keep the Company afloat long enough to become profitable.
.....
As a follow up to Centroamerica's previous status on the rest of what it considers Centroamerica, it has today announced that it considers and officially declares Haiti as its own protectorate. That being that Centroamerica considers itself responsible for the protection and future administration of the ailing Country. Of course the Foreign Office underlined that it would only act on such declarations upon the accession of a new Haitian Government stable enough for proper negotiation (OOC : in other words when there is an RPer, aka this breaches no rules on non rped nations) or unstable to the point where it is in the interests of the global community for Centroamerica to stabilize the area under the banner of normalcy and prosperity. This status for Haiti means that Centroamerica will directly and actively intervene and engage in warfare with any Country encroaching upon its Borders or sovereignty, whether welcomed or not. This status and protective statement and promise has been expanded to the Dominican Republic in further declarations the same day.
It reinforces the statements made in the previous Decade by the Centroamerican Government, where it underlines its belief and indeed philosophy that it is and must be protective of its regional partners in the same was that NATO is towards Europe. Centroamerica is after all the most diverse Nation in Middle America, a Geographic location that includes all of Central America and the Caribbean, and is the main claim that Centroamerica has towards stating that the Caribbean is in fact part of Central America. Anglosphere Nations as a rule of thumb do not consider this to be the case, but in portuguese and spanish speaking countries geographic Central America includes the Antilles archipelago, which includes all of Hispaniola, Cuba and the Bahamas. Thus the explanation for their belief and policy is routed in its very culture.

CENTROAMERICA PROPOSES BANANA TREATY TO PARAMERICA
JUNE 2025
Paramerica, being the largest and longest lasting buyer of Centroamerican Bananas since the mid 1800s has become the current target of an attempt by the Centroamerican Foreign Office to create and sign a comprehensive trade treaty. Specifically one that dictates the minimum price paid for said Bananas, the required quality, the required minimum delivery figure per annum and finally the tariffs related to the importation of said Bananas. Considering of course that Paramericans have gone from consuming 22 pounds of bananas in 2009 on average to 27.38 pounds in 2020, a trend that continues to rise, it is clear that Paramerica will remain a stable and valued partner in the trade of Bananas overall. This might seem like an unimaginable sum for Centroamerica to deal with, given that 27.38 pounds for a Nation of over 300 million is insanely high (to be precise 8.85 billion pounds of Bananas per year for the entire nation of Paramerica). What needs to be taken into account however is that Centroamerica produces 1060 pounds of bananas per person for a grand total of 55.372 billion pounds of Bananas per year.
It is therefore accurate to say that Centroamerica is a land of Bananas, and a land that enables the rest of the world to share the joy of its flavor and benefits. And naturally by signing a Treaty with Paramerica, Centroamerica will be able to ensure a higher standard of living for its Banana farmers regardless of global price fluctuations, and as a result increase the overall quality of life for all Centroamericans. In return Paramerica will receive a more permanent and stable source of its Potassium for now and all time to come, continuing the long relationship between the two Country, a relationship founded on Fruit.

Abu Dhabi, Union-State of Arab Nations
Royal Executive Office of the Grand Emir
[list][list][list][list][list]Grand Emir Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein Announces Military Intervention into Somaliland Amid Request from Somaliland General of the Army Dahir Adan Elmi; Dahir Adan Elmi Initiates Coup Against Muse Bihi Abdi[/list][/list][/list][/list][/list]
Secretive meetings between Somaliland General of the Army Dahir Adan Elmi and Chairman of the USAN National Council on Defense & Security Integrity culminated in a surprising announcement from the Grand Emir Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein. The past month Somaliland has been ripe with terrorist attacks ranging from car bombs and mass shootings to attempted assassinations. The potential spillover of the conflict into the greater region and the negligence of the Somaliland government has put Abu Dhabi in a rather precarious situation. However, on and off the record communication between Somaliland General of the Army Dahir Adan Elmi and Chairman of the USAN National Council on Defense & Security Integrity has prompted opportunities for the Grand Emir to not only bring stability to Somaliland but also to acquire a new member into the USAN.
Whilst at the Executive Office of the Grand Emir in Abu Dhabi, Grand Emir Abdullah II would give a nod to one of his secretaries to send a secret memo to Somaliland General of the Army Dahir Adan Elmi, who was in the presidential palace in Hargeisa with Somaliland President Muse Bihi Abdi, who was sitting at his desk rather paranoid looking over documents. As Dahir Adan Elmi stood near the window overlooking the front garden as one of the soldiers would come up to him and whisper a code word into his ear. With a nod, the soldier would close and lock the Presidential Office's door while proclaiming there is a security threat downstairs and that the upper floor where the office is located has been put on lockdown. Going with the act, General Dahir Adan Elmi would hover toward the President and bring him to the back of the office away from the windows. Little did the President know, the military personnel assigned to protecting the palace this particular day were directly appointed by General Elmi as well as disguised USAN Commandos portraying members of the Somaliland Presidential Guard.
After a moments notice, General Dahir Adan Elmi would pull out his Caracal Enhanced F pistol from his holster and shoot President Muse Bihi Abdi three times in the chest. Falling backwards onto the ground, President Abdi would look up for a few seconds before taking his last breath and General Elmi placing the pistol back into his holster. Walking over to the Presidential desk while wearing his military ceremonial uniform, General Elmi would send out a public broadcast stating that President Abdi has been assassinated by an Astroculture extremist that infiltrated the Presidential Palace and assaulted 3 guardsmen before killing the President. With the announcement of the death of President Abdi, General Elmi declared martial law across Somaliland for the military to gain control and enforce stability and security.
With the death of President Abdi reaching Abu Dhabi, Grand Emir Abdullah II would approve for the USAN media conglomerates to begin the planned media pivoting of the situation to blame the death of Abdi onto Astroculture extremists. At 5 PM, General Elmi would make another announcement filing for official assistance from the USAN to ensure stability and to assist the unprepared Somaliland Armed Forces. With the public appeal to the USAN, Grand Emir Abdullah II at 5:04 PM would give a private approval through secured communication networks to General Elmi that the USAN will be providing ground, air, and naval support to ensure the establishment of his regime and full eradication of Astroculture and Astroculture sympathizers in Somaliland. At 8 PM, Grand Emir Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein would appear in the Royal Executive Office of the Grand Emir and would give the following statement:
[list][list][pre]"My fellow Arabs, citizens of the USAN, and faithful believers and followers of Islam, I bear witness that none deserves worship except God, and I bear witness that Muhammad is the messenger of God. I come today to directly address the ongoing unraveling of peace, stability, and tranquility in the Republic of Somaliland. A few moments ago I have received word that our dear brother President Abdi has been assassinated by a confirmed Astroculture extremist plot to destroy the Islamic Republic of Somaliland and pivot the country to the Anti-Muslim, Anti-Arab fascist country: the Galla. It has come to my attention that thankfully for the will and determination of Somaliland General of the Army & Minister of Defense General Elmi, the capital is being secured by the Somaliland Armed Forces; however, their resources, supply lines, and capacity to ensure safety across the country is very limited. With discussion with the Joint Chiefs of the United Arab Defense Force, I have found it appropriate and necessary for the USAN to provide physical security assistance to General Elmi in the fight to end this unnecessary insurgency being waged by these extremists with no morals or guidance. It is the sole responsibility of the USAN to promote and advocate the well-being of Muslims and furthermore, it is essential for the USAN to ensure peace and tranquility in our near coastline Straits, Seas, and Gulfs as they are all strategic and vital trade routes and chokepoints for the global economy. With this, I am authorizing the usage of force in Somaliland in a commitment to counterterrorism and counterinsurgency so the people of Somaliland can once again return back to normalcy, development, and peace. As of this very moment, I am authorizing the preparation and deployment 4th and 8th Battalions of the Arabian Ground Defense Force
to Somaliland and the deployment of the 2nd Air Squadron. It is our hope to send a message to those who seek instability and destruction within the Muslim and Arab World: the USAN will not tolerate the death of innocence and the persecution of the faithful."[/pre][/list][/list]

( Current Map Of Kashmir: https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-d9d0ca6b4bcd64dcd5169f1cd503ffc2)
[list][sub]| Kashmir has been a hotspot for conflict between India and Pakistan since the early days of independence. It stems from the Raja of Kashmir deciding to join India, despite the Muslim population wanting to join Pakistan. Therefore, there was a conflict of interests, with this becoming a major issue highlighting the religious differences between the two nations. Throughout the years, 5 wars have been fought in total over Kashmir, 3 major wars and 2 minor wars. Most of the wars have been stalemates, as nobody has managed to control all of the territory. There has been calls for Kashmiri independence in the past, but they have been pointed out to be unviable. |[/sub][/list]
[list][sub]| So therefore, even in recent times, both nations have tried to seize control of the vital territory, rich in minerals, and its geopolitical position. But one massive factor has changed the balance: Afghanistan. Afghanistan has been fought over before in the civil war, with conflicting Pakistani and Indian influences. But with the SGRI takeover, it was kind of like a new slate after it gained independence, allowing the union to occur between Islamabad and Kabul. So with increased stability in the nation due to compromises being made, more resources could be devoted in gaining power, along with terrorist organizations such as the Taliban taking a vital part. Now, actions would be made.|[/sub][/list]
[list]| The Taliban and Al Qaeda would begin operations in Jammu and Kashmir. |
[list][sub]| 7,000 insurgents would attack Nosautempopulus positions along the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir, specifically concentrated in the states of Rajauri and Poonch. They would arrive at 4 A.M in the morning, in the 5th of June. They would take advantage of the high altitude, and begin advancing through the hills. They would come armed with IEDs, suicide vests, and also various guns bought and stolen from the black market during the raids they had done against Pakistan itself, being the HK G3, AK-47, the Type 56, Azb DMR MK1, and anti-tank missiles like the KRL Baktar Shikan, and they would start shooting anti tank missiles at fortifications and lines the Indians held. Whether they hold their positions in the provinces or return from shooting at Indian positions depends. |[/sub][/list]

I concede to a point made by my predecessor president Polaikov I know you are familiar, that the war fought against the Diba Dynasty's regime in Iran had shown us our glaring lack of naval prowess. Now with our progress on our Caspian Coastal City project it is far more apparent that his plans for a single light aircraft carrier, that we will deliver on mind you, is insufficient for the continued protection of our sea side metropolises and as much as we value the service of the Russian Navy's Caspian Flotilla under the OSS it would be desirable to operate our own vessels.

[sub]THE JAPAN PM SHOWS INTENTIONS FOR A PEACEFUL JAPAN AGAIN WITH THE ADOPTION OF THE ERMANISM IDEOLOGY BUT WITH A STRONG ARMY TO PROTECT THE EMPIRE[/sub]
| During Shinjiro Administration (2017-2021) in mid-April 2020, the Government of Japan reduced Japan's military power in favor of making it one of the most peaceful nations in the world and, over the years, during the Abe administration (2021-2022), Japanese military power was increased again Shinjiro Administration, in addition to reducing Japanese military power, PM Shinjiro was also favorable to Ermanism, which is a European ideology idealized by Fmr. German Chancellor Katherine Erman, commonly called "Kathy", whose main idea was the Suppression of Imperialism, among other things. |
| Now Prime Minister Suga has highlighted his intentions at a press conference in Kantei after a cabinet meeting that will resurrect Katherine Erman's ideology to distance Japan from the Imperialist military interest the country had years ago and make Japan once again a pacifist nation. Kantei also emphasized that there is no need to reduce military power. According to Kantei, this also shows that the Japanese Empire's intention in relation to North Borneo is not to militarize the region, but to protect all citizens residing in North Borneo, including Muslims. This "Bornean Police State" has existed for a long time in the Empire of Japan and only now this Japanese police system has been expanded to North Borneo, also with the aim of improving the security system that was somewhat precarious in the region. |
[sub]GOVERNMENT OF JAPAN CONFIRMS THE CONSTRUCTION OF 500 KOBAN IN NORTH BORNEO FOR REGIONAL SECURITY[/sub]
| As stated before, Japan would officially become peaceful and adopt the ideology of Katherine Erman as one of its pillars. Prime Minister Suga, in conversation with the Governor of North Borneo, confirmed the creation of a Police Department, which will be separate from the North Borneo Police Guard This new department will be responsible for managing the 500 Koban that will be built soon in the region. Clearly, these 500 Koban will be built across the region, both in rural villages and in large cities in North Borneo. |

[sup]Record Breaking Heatwave Reported Over India and Southern Asia, Dozens Killed!?[/sup]
[sup]Daytime temperatures for the sixth consecutive day across India as temperatures remain at a steady 105 degrees Fahrenheit (40 Celsius). Record breaking heat not seen since 2012 in a 9 year high with monsoon season arriving more slowly then last year alone with very unusual weather pattern projected for the Summer. Heatwaves alone have killed at least 6,500 people in the worlds second-most populous nation since 2010, and scientists say climate change is making them harsher and more frequent.[/sup]
[sup]Delhi saw 43.1 degrees Celsius or 109 degrees Fahrenheit on Thursday, the hottest June day in the city since 2012 when the capital sweltered under 43.5 degrees Celsius. On Friday, the temperature again shot up to 41 degree Celsius in the city of 20 million. Temperatures have remained more than seven degrees Celsius above normal for this time of the year, prompting Indias weather office to classify it as severe extreme heat. The India Meteorological Department said the mercury will stay above 40 degrees for the coming week because of the late arrival of the southwest monsoon and a hot wind blowing in from the desert state of Rajasthan and neighboring Pakistan.[/sup]
[sup]"Due to likely dry westerly/southwesterly winds from Pakistan to northwest India at lower levels, Heat wave conditions in isolated pockets very likely over Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh & Delhi and west Uttar Pradesh on 02nd and over Rajasthan on 02nd and 03rd July." @India Meteorological Department on via social media.[/sup]
[sup]Some good news to report from the weather department had despite multiple states across India issuing heatwave warnings, various states is predicted to have isolated thunderstorms, which should help elevate some of the pressure from the continuous heatwave that continues to hammer citizens and families alike across the country. Thanks to recent improvements to not only the cost of living and conditions among Indians, with more households owning ac units, and other more clean running water. However despite the nationwide improvements to overall way of life, the heatwave has so far claimed the lives of 88 people so far with hundreds hospitalized and or treated for heat stroke. Another major issue with more people owning and running ac units and other devices had even before India's commitment to the Paris Accords had been part of the reasoning for not only the rise in CO2 levels, but other all rise in heat within cities. With power saving ac units becoming increasingly popular as the demand for such units have gone up by over 90% within the last few years.[/sup]
[sup]So far the most deadliest year in regards to the severe heatwaves that scorch India every year was in 2015. When over 2,000 people were killed.[/sup]

Planen Líf och Lífþrasir
1st June, 2025
Play this while reading: https://youtu.be/ATb7CXX-Kc0
The revolution had failed, it had become blatantly clear to the SUDF. However, the Red Triumvirate had planned for this. They created Planen Líf och Lífþrasir in order to secure the SUDF's continuation. The plan is named after the two humans that survive the Fimbulvetr by hiding in Hoddmínís holt (Yggdrasil) and repopulate the world following Ragnarök. The plan would be put into action as the Army started to surround Kiruna.
Various "Ratlines" had been established from Sweden to Norway and Finland, with those also having additional ratlines to America and Russia respectively. They had already been used extensively before, but when Planen Líf och Lífþrasir was executed just about every member of the SUDF that could tried to either flee to these ratlines or went into hiding in the wilderness. These ratlines were also used to escort military supplies and other important materials out of Sweden.
The plan also outlined successors to the Red Triumvirate incase they were captured or killed in their escape attempt. André Forssell chose Lars Ohly, a former Party Chairman of the Left Party, as his successor. Elin Nobel chose Nooshi Dadgostar, a rising star in the SUDF, as her successor. Agne Eliasson chose Urban Ahlin, a loyal ally of Agne, as his successor.
On the morning of the 1st of June, the Red Triumvirate as well as the last major officials that were still with them, attempted to escape from Kiruna. However, soon their attempts at escaping would be found out and many of them would get captured by the government.
André Forssell and Elin Nobel were both caught by the army as they tried to drive out of Sweden. Elin's vehicle was approached by members of the EU Gendarmarie sent to Sweden, which Elin and the rest of the officials in the car didn't realize. Elin was apprehended by the Gendarmarie and her guards then surrendered. Andre's car was surrounded by government soldiers who tried to approach the car, but André tried to drive off as the guards in the car attempted to shoot the soldiers. The soldiers fired back killing the two guards in the back. Then they shot out the tires causing the car to suddenly stop, killing the last guard and injuring André. Forssell got out of the car and tried to pull out a pistol but he was tackled and quickly apprehended before he could fire it.
Various military and political officials were also caught attempting to escape. The following officials have been captured by the government so far:
[spoiler=List of captured SUDF officials]*Jack Håkansson (Supreme Commander of the Swedish Red Vanguard Army)
*Absalon Bergman (Minister of Internal Security)
*Jojje Jonsson (Head of Research)
*Katrin Nyman (Minister of Justice)
*Pär Kjellberg (Överste of the Gällivare Regiment)
*Magnus Rothschild (Creator of Drift Mistel)
*Sigvard Norberg (Director of the United Security and Vanguard Bureau)
*Gerd Håkansson (Överstelöjtnant of the Klimpfjäll "The Worker's Executioners" Battalion)
*Ronnie Nyman (Minister of the Economy)[/spoiler]
Even with all of the officials caught by the government, a few managed to successfully escape capture. Those who escaped include:
[spoiler=List of SUDF officials who escaped]*Agne Eliasson (Member of the Red Triumvirate)
*Lotta Johnsson Fornarve (Minister of Media)
*Felix Palme (Head of the United Agency of Swedish Intelligence)
*Sverker Ros (Överstelöjtnant of the 3rd Kiruna "Red Loki" Battalion)
*Natalie Åberg (Minister of Culture/Speaker of the Free Sámi Parliament)
*Gáktu Johansson (President of the Free Sámi Parliament)[/spoiler]
The captured officials from all the revolutions will soon be put on trial to determine their sentences. The officials that have escaped will be searched for relentlessly and will be found. Today, the 1st of June, 2025, will be remembered as a historic day in Swedish History. Although there's still resistance fighting in some areas, all organized rebellion has ended and Sweden can finally rebuild after 3 years of constant rebellion.

he doesn't like a pistol to his head.
He wants no servants under him,
and no boss o'er his head."[/sub]

[sub]DINING ROOM, TOKYO IMPERIAL PALACE[/sub]
| To the sound of birds on an extremely peaceful morning in the garden of the IMPERIAL PALACE OF TOKYO Upon entering the Palace, His Imperial Majesty, EMPEROR NARUHITO wearing a dark blue polo shirt was in the dining room having breakfast, on his right was seated at his wife, EMPRESS MASAKO. |
[list]| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | . . . Uh, let's see what's new in today's news[/list]
| The EMPRESS MASAKO put the coffee cup back on the saucer and looked at her husband. |
[list]| [sub]MASAKO, The Empress[/sub] | What's new?
| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | . . . North Borneo to become a Police State. [sup](NEWSPAPER HEADLINE)[/sup][/list]
| The EMPRESS MASAKO raised his hand to take a piece of bread as he listened to her husband speak. |
[list]| [sub]MASAKO, The Empress[/sub] | That's good, right? After all, it will give more security to local citizens.
| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | Yes, but the problem is that the Arabs are not very fond of the idea of a police state in North Borneo, as they think we are ruling poorly with Muslims and we prioritize Japanese culture above all else.[/list]
[list]| [sub]MASAKO, The Empress[/sub] | But we have freedom in North Borneo . . . I don't see the Government of Japan taking the freedom of the local population . . . I think the Arabs are very poorly informed.
| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | Yes, Masako By the way, I would like to talk about another subject.[/list]
| MASAKO finishes his toast and drinks some juice to help him digest. |
[list]| [sub]MASAKO, The Empress[/sub] | You can talk? . . .
| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | Aiko has been very nauseous lately, don't you think that's weird?
| [sub]MASAKO, The Empress[/sub] | N-no . . . Why would it be?[/list]
| MASAKO a little nervous would drink some juice again. |
[list]| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | Are you hiding something from me, Masako Tell me, is Aiko sick?
| [sub]MASAKO, The Empress[/sub] | O-ok, I'll say . . . Aiko is dating, but what can I do? She is already 24 years old, no longer a child.
| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | . . . Well, who is this boy who is dating my daughter? Is he Japanese at least?[/list]
| MASAKO in an expression would say . . . |
[list]| [sub]MASAKO, The Empress[/sub] | No, she told me she fell head over heels in love with a 26-year-old Paramerican.[/list]
| The EMPEROR with an angry expression and banged his fists on the table. |
[list]| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | W-WHAT? I assume she is pregnant with a foreigner, correct? It's all explained.
| [sub]MASAKO, The Empress[/sub] | Calm down, I know this would be a shocking story for the big gossip magazines about our family.
| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | With this, our family will be TARGETED by the media and the public . . . Imagine the headlines Japanese princess has son/daughter with Paramerican, how did you, as her mother, allow such a thing?
| [sub]MASAKO, The Empress[/sub] | I think she's been dating a foreign guy for two years on the sly.[/list]
| The EMPEROR goes out into the garden to calm down. |

| After spending time in the garden, the EMPEROR returns to the palace to speak with PRINCESS AIKO. |
[list]| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | I know everything Aiko I know you secretly dated a foreign guy and you're still pregnant.
| [sub]AIKO, The Princess Toshi[/sub] | Dad, what should I do? My heart says to follow this Paramerican.
| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | You will not do this, I forbid you . . . By the way, does this boy know he's going to be a father?
| [sub]AIKO, The Princess Toshi[/sub] | Yes, he was happy with the news himself and took the first flight from San Francisco to Tokyo.
| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | W-What, Aiko? You know the press cannot know, if they do, it will be like a bomb in the tabloids.
| [sub]AIKO, The Princess Toshi[/sub] | But he's not even a famous Paramerican actor.[/list]
| The EMPEROR got up a little to adjust the clock. |
[list]| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | That's not the point, Aiko The point I want to emphasize is that it will be strange for a foreigner to enter the Imperial Palace alone, it will have to be a place without the eyes of the press.
| [sub]AIKO, The Princess Toshi[/sub] | You and Mommy can go undercover and go to a hotel to meet him.
| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | . . . Uh, tomorrow I will send a black car to pick up your boyfriend and take him to the rendezvous point.[/list]

[list]| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | Welcome to Japan, Mr- . . .?[/list]
| Somewhat confused, the boy reached out to shake the EMPEROR's hand. |
[list]| [sub]DANIEL KONNO, U.S. Medicine Student[/sub] | Nice to meet you, His Imperial- . . . I mean Mr. Naruhito with all due respect, you too, Ms. Masako.
| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | Let's sit down before someone recognizes us.[/list]
| NARUHITO would be wearing a cap and sunglasses. |
[list]| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | Well, you know our daughter is pregnant with you, right? We recommend that the two of you travel to Europe on false passports, of course, so that you both can escape the press. I am recommending this because I see you were very happy for your son/daughter . . . but Aiko as soon as she gives birth, she will immediately return to Japan as if nothing had happened and the child will stay with you, understand Daniel?
| [sub]DANIEL KONNO, U.S. Medicine Student[/sub] | Can I still see Aiko from time to time?
| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | Yes, we can allow that. It will be good for the child to see the mother too.
| [sub]DANIEL KONNO, U.S. Medicine Student[/sub] | I will collaborate with both of their plans.
| [sub]NARUHITO, The Emperor[/sub] | I see Aiko forgot to mention that you have Japanese blood.
| [sub]DANIEL KONNO, U.S. Medicine Student[/sub] | Yes, my family immigrated to Paramerica in the 50s. I have dual citizenship.[/list]

RIGHT-WING RHETORIC DECRIED AS "WRETCHED OPPORTUNISM"
[list][sup]A BALANCE FIGHTING TO REMAIN
FINLANDSUMMER 2025[/sup][/list]
The conscientious moderates of Finland watched in astonishment as the Finns Party shifted the precarious balance of Finnish politicsconservative coalition against healthy liberal oppositionfurther and further rightward. Much of a country had, over the course of only a few years, been swept up by the idea of a greater purpose. Young people unenthused by what Alvi Karvonen labelled "placid idleness" took up arms with the Finns Party, which promoted its curious blend of a facade of forward movement and goodwill, an interest in Finnish roots and paganism, and a record of campaigning militantly for nationalism and irredentism. Militarization, though sponsored by a president formerly of the National Coalition Party, was seen by many as a consequence of the Finns Party's actions across the country in promoting the idea of a higher Finland to come to a generation thatthough it was meant to be skepticalhad long forgotten the horrors of war and the value of peace. Thus, the balance of Finnishness that had existed even just a year earlier was beginning to fade as a country that had already been expansionistic in its unapologetic stewardship of Estonia moved even further towards inescapable irredentism. With northeastern Sweden in turmoil and Norway silent, opportunistic imperialism seemed to be almost inevitable.
President Mykkänen himself, though he had allowed for the armament of northern Finland, nonetheless maintained that this shift was negative to Finnish society. In a speech given on Finnish culture at the Wäinö Aaltonen Museum of Art in Turkuwhich recently saw a major expansionat the end of June, he declared that he felt the national spirit had always "leaned towards defending its identity, but never forcing itself on others" in what political observers noted was a clear attack on the militant rhetoric of Karvonen and the Finns Party. Prime Minister Orpo stood in line with the President, telling the legislature that he was "deeply convicted" that Finland "must never become a state that imposes its will onto others". The Social Democratic Party of Finland capitalized on the President and Prime Minister's statements by holding an immense "anti-imperialist" rally in Helsinki that saw over thirty thousand attendeesan indication that a strong opposition continues to fight against the rightward shift seen on the surface of Finnish politics. Sanna Marin, leader of the Social Democrats, issued a widely-circulated address at the rally that claimed that Karvonen and his followers were nothing but "the henchmen of wretched opportunism, hoping to exploit Swedes, Norwegians and Finns alike for power alone". Karvonen himself, who was contemporaneously travelling in northern Finland to promote his recently published book on the occult in Finnish paganism, gave no comment on Marin's remarks.
Rumors continued to circulate in the highest political circles of Finland that President Mykkänen had developed a personal dislike for Karvonen and his beliefs. Most of the moderate quarters of the Finnish Parliament found Karvonen's occult and pagan works distasteful, though the roots of Christianity in Finland had become so shrunken by 2025with national Christian identification dwindling to around 50%that much of the populace seemed, according to social media, to simply find Karvonen's interest in Finnish paganism culturally in-touch. Mykkänen soon became further rumored to be strategically planning a series of talks around the country to rally it in the defense of unbiased, rational democracy, hoping to spur the advances the Finns Party has madedespite his own party being in a coalition government with it.

Spain purchases ten Gowind-class corvettes for 800 million euros, but procurement raises questions over Spanish dependency on French arms
| 'A new step forward for the protection of Spanish coastlines and territories' were the words displayed and highlighted on the banner behind several Spanish Navy representatives and Spanish Finance Ministry representatives during the press conference where the Spanish Navy announced that they would be purchasing ten Gowind-class corvettes from the French Republic for 800 million euros in order to replace the Navy's ageing patrol boat fleets with more advanced and somewhat cheaper corvettes. According to official Navy estimates, some vessels currently actively serving in the Spanish Navy's fleet dedicated to patrolling Spain's waters dated back to the 1980s, with some being commissioned in the mid-1980s to the 1990s. While not all of Spain's current patrol boats will be replaced by these state-of-the-art corvettes, it is expected that the oldest of the fleet will be switched out for these corvettes. |
| The Gowind-class of vessels is a generalized design of steel monohull frigates, corvettes, and offshore patrol vessels developed since 2006 by France's Naval Group, formerly known as DCNS, to conduct missions in the littoral zone such as anti-submarine warfare. The Gowind-class of ships include vessels with lengths of 85 to 111 meters and a displacement of 1,000 to 3,100 tons. The Gowind design is capable of deploying unmanned aerial vehicles, unmanned surface vehicles, and underwater unmanned vehicles. An aft surface deck allows for 10-ton helicopters and UAVs to operate on. The variant purchased by the Spanish Navy is the Gowind-1000 configuration, which is a 1,000-ton corvette which is well-armed and fast. It is well-suited for protection, escort, and embargo naval missions in a littoral environment. The Gowind-1000 can also perform presence, surveillance, intelligence, and policing missions. It is armed with x1 OTO Melara 76mm main gun, x2 Nexter Narwhal 20mm cannons, x8 VLS for MBDA VL Mica surface-to-air missiles, and x4 MBDA MM40 Exocet anti-ship missile launchers. |
| According to official DCNS estimates, all ten of the Gowind-1000 corvettes will be delivered to the Spanish Navy and placed into full operation by June 2027. At only 80 million euros per vessel, the Gowind-1000 corvette is 100 million euros cheaper than the Spanish-produced Meteoro-class offshore patrol vessel, which does not utilize some of the sensing and radar technologies aboard the Gowind-1000. |
| However, this 800 million euro procurement deal has stirred tremendous amounts of controversy after multiple famous news reporters and celebrities in the country brought up the question of why Spain was spending tens of billions on purchasing French arms, rather than focusing on a multi-nation military weapons program like the Eurofighter or developing her own arms production industry. Additional questions were raised afterwards about whether or not the Spanish military was increasing their dependency on French arms and military warships. Top proponents of the procurement deal and the previous others like it, such as a FREMM deal made in 2024, argued that the agreements 'boosted Franco-Spanish relations and encouraged increased diplomatic and military dialogue between the two nations'. These proponents also argued that French arms were 'just economically viable' due to their low purchasing costs and the fact that the French 'were so very generous enough to provide us a discount at times'. On the other hand, opponents of excessive Spanish purchasing of French arms stated that, while Franco-Spanish relations were to be cherished and expanded, purchasing French arms was 'unpatriotic' and 'increased our military's dependency on a foreign power'. |
| Disappointingly for the proponents of the Spanish purchasing of French arms, Spanish Prime Minister Augustina Torres announced that she will be establishing a government committee to look into past major Spanish purchases of French arms, and to ensure that 'Spanish financial and national security was not in any way compromised during these purchases'. While the Prime Minister remained vague on this issue during the press conference wherein she announced the committee, some news correspondence guessed - possibly rightly - that the committee will be looking into the reasons Spain's military decided to purchase French arms over other choices. |
