Hi everyone, nice to meet you all! I had a nation in one of the other Augustin Alliance regions (Conch Kingdom) a long time ago but it long since ceased to exist, I remembered this game and thought I’d come back to it.

My nation is supposed to represent a version of Britain that didn’t completely lose the Hundred Years’ War and managed to keep a few of its lands in France, by the way. We are a fairly traditionalist and highly religious society but one with strong traditions of democracy and free market economics.

Masquerade Ball - Episode One

Tzuyu was skipping around Hibiscus City. Just as she was about to cross the street, her phone started to ring. She took out her phone and looked at who was calling her. It was the FA Minister, Mr. Gene. She answered it quickly and put the phone to her ear, "Hello?"

"Hi Tzuyu! How are you?" The person on the other side asked.

“Good. I’m just walking around the city. How about you?”

“I’m good,” he pauses, “I’ll cut to the chase. The President wants to host a masquerade ball and invite the leaders and ambassadors from different countries.”

“Okay. That sounds like fun. When will it be?”

“He wants to have it on the last day of the Mid-summer Festival.”

“Ok. That’s doable. What do you need me to do?”

“We need you to send invitations out. I’ll have someone give you the invitations. Is that alright with you?”

“Of course. Am I invited, too?”

“Yes. You are! Everyone who helps is invited!” Mr. Gene gave a hearty laugh.

Tzuyu chuckled, “Okay. I will go get the invitations and send them out.”

“Okay. Goodbye Tzuyu.”

“Goodbye Mr. Gene.” She hung up the phone call.

Parents angered at Spokane after riot end in Tragedy

The Dolplandian-Spokane Travel Abroad program was supposed to be a successful business opportunity for the students at Hibiscus City University, but now parents are asking for their children back after a riot in Seattle, Spokane killed five Dolplandian students. We spoke to one of the parents of the children who has died in the riot:

“It’s truly tragic what happened to my child. If I had to ask King Adam one question at this moment, it would be ‘Why? Why would you attack these children?’”

We have sent an interview invitation to the president of HCU. We haven’t gotten a response from her, yet.

Commander-in Chief of Domlandian Provincial Army killed in cowardly attack

Abeedah Huda, commander in chief of the Domlandian army, was found dead early this morning, evidently having been stabbed several times in the back. Whilst no suspects have been identified yet, it is believed that the Domlandian National Front was behind this attack. The national front are a terrorist organisation who wish to secede from the Biggonian Empire, and would therefore not tolerate Huda's willingness to accept the Biggonian annexation of Domlandia. Abeedah Huda had formally served in the Domlandian army, but had wisely agreed to help set up the new provincial army after the annexation in 1997.

This death was accompanied by a letter left on the doorstep of the Domlandian assembly, which is the legislature of the province of Domlandia. The man who left it, who seems to be an agent from the National Front, was quickly apprehended and is currently under interrogation. The letter read:

"The National Front for the liberation of Domlandia, led by Prime Minister-Field Marshal Noorani Habdool, issues demands to the Biggonian Empire and their collaborationist puppets:

For decades, the Domlandian people have been subject to a systematic cultural genocide in order to make them more compliant with the whims of Ivasburg. We can allow you to taint our children no longer! Therefore, effective immediate, the following actions must be performed by the Biggonian Empire;

- Immediate withdrawal of all military personnel from Domlandian soil

- Relinquishing of all claim to Domlandian territory (according to the boundaries of 1997)

- The paying of 500 million Biggonian Florins as reparations for damages caused over this period

- Immediate amnesty for any Domlandian political prisoners"

These demands are obviously absurd, and have therefore been rejected by our clear-headed policy makers.

Part 23: The Blood Upon the Steeple

“Tik…Tik…Tik….” Crunched the pencil in Alek’s hand as he gently bit on the end. The wood was raw, with bite marks sinking into the wood.

“Brother…” Snipped a voice from the corner of Alek’s eye.

“Somehow, it seems your secret is protected….What will you do with that ghost?” The being laughed, its teeth shattering with cackling growls.

“Think of the fun you have had…playing a king where one is not present…There was a man we both knew. Open inside was his end, for one parent abandoned him for lust and glory to a name no one cares for. He wanted honor, woman, love, and fame. All while the other parent sat lonely, thinking and plotting. Their eyes staring upon their bastard with longing joy as it gave her hope…”

“Set the fire down. Consider the wise council of the unknown. Place the torch in your soul and let it go. Burn your veins and let it go. Fire will burn like passion, here in with love and here with hate. Passion is here in all things, a fire can not be contained once it begins, only when it is dead can it release your soul.“

“We want more.“

“As the strongest of all emotions, passion will be fueled by everything in it, your wisdom, your love, and your anger. It’s neither good nor bad, but we can’t control it. It will turn on and off. It is the flow of an incorruptible judgment, born from a purpose of our passion.“

“To rise above the conflicting storms of human passions, is to rise above all sin.“

“He takes it upon Himself to close His eyes and grow His anger, ruthlessly those who come to the Creator do not look like a man, but like a destroyed generation. With all our might, the names of these brethren will live for us to see them.“

“Praise authority and serve the flame. Be the defense of this truth, be one of the judges, and be one of the greatest charities. Never show compassion, for He feeds on our flesh and blood.

He will consume everything without hope, and thus we are splintered in turbulent passions of the soul. For Our God is mighty and forever feared.“

“We can not control it. Neither can You…”

“Shut up!” Alek yelled out as he turned, slamming his hand into the wall. His fist let out a painfully loud crack, as if his hand had snapped into a thousand pieces.

“Oh tsk..tsk…” The voice continued to teach. “If you feel lonely..think of me. For I am always here..” The words slowly left Aleks mouth as he stood up, facing the reflection in the gloss along the wall. It was him. The end of everything. A watcher of a thousand eyes.

Recent political unrest in West Central Vabas

By David Hoffman

Recently, the Antarctican Department of Transportation has been looking into providing translations for dual language street names in Western Central Vabas to include Antarctican Daresin. They also intend on passing a law that any new streets require names strictly in Antarctican Daresin. Many Antarcticans in the region have expressed their concerns on Friday as a political party known as the Antarctican Reform Party recently held a discussion on whether or not this would be beneficial to Antarcticans or not.

"This is a clear instance of a forced cultural shift, in order to slowly convert native Antarcticans to Hoosier culture," said a spokesperson.

Today a crowd of Antarcticans in Madison, Monglen County are protesting the upcoming decision, although while Madison isn't affected by it, many in the region are worried about areas closer to Hooseria.

It's not clear what the response to these protests will be but political experts don't expect much.

It is still an uneasy situation across Central Vabas.

I just learned that LE is ranked 4th among all regions in the world in number of endorsements per person. That's a very high ranking, but it's still only 25.76 on average. The highest ranking region (Europe) only has 46.33 endorsements per person. If we could convince just 21 non-WA nations to join the WA and endorse everyone else, this region could become the most endorsed region in the world. How can we do that? (We could also try to convince the bottom 25 or so endorsers to endorse more people, but that most likely will not work).

Is there an easy way to generate a list of non-WA nations in the region?

This morning, the Special Administrative Cities of Lubeck Tulo and Pantalan Humot have passed new Basic Laws that now limit their autonomy from the federal government to the maintenance of their current legislature and executive branches. Lubeck Tulo is now part of the 1st judicial district of the SBR and Pantalan Humot part of the 6th and all judicial procedures, criminal law and civil law in these cities must be subordinate to federal law and those of Ontienarag and Seliran Baru.

Customs and immigration will remain separate from the SBR proper but residents of the rest of the SBR will no longer need compatriot cards to enter and can use regular IDs, while foreigners will still require separate checks for the SBR proper and the SACs. The Pantalan Humot mark and the Lubeck Tulo mark will now be pegged at par to the Visayan ringgit from 14 July onwards and all economic stats of the SACs will be added on to their surrounding states.

This is just coming in from our Milne studios who have reported yet another skirmish with the Spokane navy in the Dapidran Strait. A video from the SBR National Navy from earlier this morning shows a Spokanite frigate attempting to ram into the BSRB Intagav (a PA-class cruiser) before coming under heavy Visayan fire and another video which shows Spokanite cruisers firing at Visayan destroyers and cruisers just 14 km east of the Dapidran Point. This comes as the Milne fleet has once again been dispatched to the Dapidran Strait to enforce SBR sanction on Adam Grant's government which includes the denial of access of Spokanite navy and unauthorized merchant ships through the Dapidran Strait. The SBRNN has reported the boarding and capture of at least fourteen unauthorized Spokanite ships carrying electronics and illegal weapons since Friday before being escorted to SBR waters by the Fourth Fleet for further investigations.

An emergency meeting of further measures is currently being convened in Fort Sotto, with President Billings likely to raise armed forces readiness and potentially mobilize the navy for further patrols around the Dapidran Strait, including ordering the sinking of any Spokanite ship who does not comply with SBR sanctions inspections and impoundment proceedures.

Part 25: Our Church (Part 1)

“Tsk..” Edgar growled under his breath. From out before the man, several men and women kneeled into the sandy shoreline. Their knees were dug into the sand, with their fingers touching their weapons which sat on the earth. Each was hand picked from the d'Orodor and others from the Suulokoairron. They were Edgars to command and yet, they knelt out facing the sea.

Before them a sister stood, on their sides a sister mirrored the other and walked back and forth, flicking pigs blood onto their foreheads. In their speech, Edgar listened to their chant;

“We pray for peace. That is our way. We pray for iron. For it brings peace. We pray to blood. For spilt blood is the way to where the demons flow. In the sick, in the blind, in the laws of men long since dead, we shall never sell our soul to the Beast or the Heretic. Shake your chain. Shake the need for the Mistress of War and feed the Hound. Be free and touch the ground, for you birthed in its embrace, and to its embrace you will lay.”

From behind Edgar, the sand shifted. “Something amiss, Edgar?” Alek said as his feet gently tapped against the sand.

“Their words..it's meaningless…We should be leaving now, not listening to some prayer…” Edgar said sharply.

Alek let out a soft chuckle.

“Something amusing, your grace?” Edgar said as he turned to face Alek’s chuckles.

“Edgar..Edgar.” Alek said softly. “We were all born without a say. No one consented to our creation except God and Man. Today we are still trying to find our place in all of this. But some, like myself, like you, even like Harrison, have lost their way.”

He said this softly, gently turning away as the men bowed before the sister, her hands sprinkling pigs blood onto the ground before them.

“They say the truth will set you free, but here it is, for it shackled me like chains. What you do to others is your call, Edgar. I do not judge for I am beyond judgment. We all battle with our demons. God knows I battled mine. Some trust the law to guide them. Some trust in the divine. I trust myself.”

“I will see you soon. But remember, this act is for you to be forgiven.”

“Must you go?” Edgar asked.

“Yes, for I must battle one last demon..”

Uprising in Musainon

A rebellion in Musainon, capital city of Domlandia, has resulted in Biggonian forces being on the back foot in the city. Since 1997, the city has been under Biggonian occupation, with martial law and a curfew. However, they have been opposed by the National Front, which was formed by the remnants of both the National Party and the Domlandian army. With the recent civil war and therefore distraction of Biggonian attention, this has allowed the National Front to grow in strength and at last muster up resources to assault the city itself.

From dozens of key points, all around the city, militants are revealing themselves. In army bases, Domlandian auxiliary troops turn their guns onto Biggonians and force them to surrender. More shocking still, massive movements of Domlandian soldiers have been spotted moving into the outskirts of Musainon. Noorani Habdool, leader of the National Front, has supposedly made a suburban mansion his temporary command post, before planning to move further into the city centre when more has been secured.

Some reports are saying that the Domlandian assembly has already been captured by the uprising, pointing to the fact that the Domlandian flag is flying from the top. However, the Biggonian ministry of defence on social media has stated it is still under their control, by sending a video taken by a soldier which shows the Assembly chamber with Biggonian troops inside.

Nonetheless, the Biggonian position already appears to be dire. Despite reports being conflicted, there are some who claim that Ivasburg has issued a general retreat order, so that the army can regroup and reclaim the city. However, the fact that many positions are instead fighting to the last man demonstrates that this order has not properly been disseminated. Either way, to many this spells the death nell for continued Biggonian occupation in Domlandia.

Nuntia Publica

Today, 3 days before the Ides of July (July 13th), 46 minutes into the 6th hour of the day (1:16 pm), Finus Occivinus Gemo, the acting head of the investigation in Spokane, died in Spokane of gunshot wounds he had sustained two days ago. 5 days before the Ides of July, Sr. Occivinus was sitting in a Café in the Spokanite capital of Medical Lake with two other operatives when Eric Deere walked up to him and shot him once in the chest and once in the neck before being tackled by the other two operatives. Sr. Occivinus was then rushed to the nearby Medical Lake Central Hospital for treatment while Eric Deere was taken into custody by Vabasian investigators nearby. Against the protests of the Medical Lake Police, Eric Deere was escorted to the INTC Investigation Headquarters for interrogation. After a preliminary investigation, it quickly became clear that the assassination had been ordered by the Spokanite government in retaliation for the INTC report. All Vabasian citizens have been ordered to leave the Federation of Spokane effective immediately and the investigation headquarters have been abandoned.

This is a dark day for both the Vabasian Federation and Spokane.

Gratia Vobis.

The sea breeze gently rocked against the wooden walls of the building. Each floorboard creaked and moaned, as if the ground beneath the structure was coming to life before settling back into the earth. From the door, a man stood with his hands behind his back. Above him a clock ticked. Each passing tick went on longer than the last, as if the clock was trying to mediate the silence that sat between two men in the middle of the room:

Adam and Alek. Kings in their own right and Kings they sought to remain.

From the final tick of the clock, Alek let out a sigh of relief as his hand lifted upward and his eyes turned to the clock. “3 pm.” He said softly. Adam slowly turned and nodded. “As we agreed. Aaron.” Adam said as his advisor walked to the King, holding a red phone. Adam grabbed it and pressed a button.

The phone dialed for not even a moment as it was picked up. Adam stared into Alek’s eyes as the person on the line talked. Before the next tick the phone hung up and the advisor stepped aside. “Is it done?” Alek asked.

Adam nodded. “Two minutes ago, the 76th regiment had entered into one of your camps near Roy. So far a fire fight is underway.” Adam said as he slowly turned to look at the watch on his wrist.

“I see..” Alek said softly as he looked at his wrist. “As we agreed.” Alek cleared his throat as he leaned forward. Just before he did, a guard slammed into the door. “King Adam!” The guard yelled. “We received word that the port at Lori harbor reported an explosion at dock one and three!” He yelled.

Adam slowly turned to face Alek. “I see your piece as being played.”

“It would seem.” Alek said softly as he stood. When Alek began to rise, so did Adam who extended his hand. “May the better man win.” Adam said with a grin.

Alek could only stare before turning to step away.[/spoiler]

Part 26: The Peoples Post

“In the very month which marks our anniversary of the consecration of our great struggle in the Great War, the inscrutable counsel of the Lord of Night, for no merit of ours, has laid upon us the exalted dignity and grave care of the news before us now.

Through recognition of the law and order in which our nation breathes, we stand in the growing crisis of bloodshed with her once great ally Spokane.

In the northern part of their country, since the end of the Micalandian civil crisis, Kathricore with her allies have worked to establish not only a peaceful resolution to the conflict, but to aid the mass way of refugees that have lost so much of their livelihoods and face unimaginable struggles. One of these camps, near the Spokanite city of Roy, a fire fight has been reported between Spokanite and Kath forces.

This war is not for the destruction of our once proud ally, but to depose a tyrant who, since their establishment upon that throne, has sought to enrich themselves through the suffering and misery of the masses beneath them.

This coming conflict, I do foresee, shall take a heavy toll onto the women, men, and children of our great nation. But we are not alone. For we stand united with a coalition of nations that forever has stood beside the Grand Order and her wishes for world peace. For that is our humanity.

A humanity that, in our most noble origin, stands defiant against the oppression we broke free from centuries ago. A humanity that is owed in vows to those hundreds of thousands who, without any fault on their part, sometimes only because of their nationality or race, have been consigned to death or to a slow decline and shall be marked in their need and want.

As we come to our historic day of Remembrance this Molkr, we step forth to march onto another great conflict as our forefathers once did in their greatest war.

For the Grand Order is at war…”

It will be in effect by July 18th, official sources say. Many have rejoiced this decision, for it's inclusiveness to include multi-lingual street signs, but others have criticized it as a mistake by the Antarctican government.

Part 27: Our People’s War. (Chaper 1: The Battle of Roy)

“The mighty heroes of the battle for the right to rule clashed. Their vast armies of their imperiums, their conquering hand, their stars in the crusade of their race, that is the face of their history. A history dawned in a new age of supremacy for humanity, one which beckons and calls for the gleaming citadels of marble, stone, and rock. Those who survive hold the earth in their control. For the first triumph, the first deed, and the first powerful champion shall arise.

First and foremost, amongst these are the lowly soldier. They are beings who are led, they are an unstoppable machine that can be magnificent and pinnacle in its path. For a hundred battles can be waged in this modern age unlike all in the preceding time before this future.

The seeds of man’s heresy is that they have sworn. The greatest war has not yet come, but the Beast of Balar will feast all the same. For since the time of the Great War, they felt the conflicts of old were far far away. And yet, here they stand.”

A soft patter of rain dripped down off the brow of the caps of the men before the gate. Their black and red uniforms dripped as the rainfall grew louder and louder, with thundering cracks of lighting opening across the sky. Each second passed until a loud thunderous boom echoed through the sky, like the earth was cracking open with all her might, the sound rang the ears of the camp.

From inside the camp, men and women of the 10th “Icelockel" Rifle Battalion walked around the camp. Tents were demolished, with each of the personal loading crates of medical, food, and ammo supplies onto trucks. From the corner of the camp, the Captain stood with his back to a large open ditch, several men stood behind them. From the bottom of the ditch, soft cries and screams could be heard as the thunder roared again.

From behind the capitan, six flashes appeared before the men stood at ease with their rifles at attention.

“Is it done?” He asked.

A man with a side arm slowly pulled it from his holster and turned. “All 300, sir.” He responded.

“Good. Remove all your shells and equipment, make sure when the Spokanites or Hooserians arrive they find spokanite equipment.” The captain said as he walked away, throwing his cigarette into the ditch as the other officer let out 6 final roars over the thunder as the men around the ditch began to empty their spent ammo and toss their guns aside.

An article on Tribian reconstruction

Following the succession from Maximus to William, many improvements, both domestically and internationally have been felt by the Tribian people. Tribia has taken a leap forward into the modern world. General living conditions in Tribia have gone up dramatically following the Housing Bill, passed back in November 2021. Along with that, the economy in Tribia has improved following the Economy Restoration Bill, passed in December 2021. These 2 bills went hand in hand rebuilding the average Tribian life. Along with advantages made for the average Tribian, advancements in industries such as the energy industry made possible by the Nuclear Energy Bill, passed in February 2022. This authorizes the creation of 3 new Nuclear Power Plants across Tribia, providing power to the ever growing cities of Tribia. Militarily, William has kept Tribia safe and strong, proven through the swift success in AI. While military funding was cut back to focus on domestic improvements, William and his advisors have said money will be added back to the budget over the course of the next few months following the worsening situations in Spokane.

Still no official comment on the Tribian response on the issues in Spokane, and the Tribian absence in the INTC

Spokanite War! The breakout of war in Spokane has poised a lot of conflict in southern Spokane. BASO and Spokanite forces are currently fighting around the island. Travel to and from the island is to be avoided at all costs and anyone seeking to leave should report to the Hanseatic overseas customs office on the island. For more find go to www.raincouver.hf.gov/refugeestatus. The Hanseatic delegation to the intc is currently working to bring an end to the situation and the Hanseatic navy will soon be deployed to try and get refugees out. Various Spokanite refugees have also been trying to escape to the island and eventually escape to Hansa proper. President Aeur though known for his refusal to get involved internationally has stated that he will invoke the IDA defense clause if necessary. In the same statement he stated he will stand with Micalandia and will do everything he can to defend the sovereignty of Micalandia.

In the special joint session of the Hooserian and Antarctican Congresses yesterday, the Federal Legislature voted nearly unanimously in favor of the motion to declare war on the Federation of Spokane. Holcom began the session with an oration on the importance of supporting allies and fighting back against the evils of the world. Following Holcom's speech, Sairsia Omara Dealva, the widow of Finus Occivinus Gemo and a fellow member of MII, gave a rousing and impassioned speech in front of the joint congress urging them to join the war against Spokane, drawing on the Hoosier cultural tenet of "vindica". The speech was met with a standing ovation and thunderous applause. The war declaration called for all legions not currently involved in the garrisoning New Antarctica to report to their rally point immediately for further orders. Holcom has once again been unanimously appointed Dictator for the duration of the war.

Condemnation by Commonwealth of Biggonia

The Commonwealth of Biggonia has issued a condemnation of the Kingdom of Spokane, calling it a dictatorial regime and applauding international efforts to depose it. On the other hand, the Biggonian Empire has still given no statement. This indicates their tacit approval and support for Spokane, however due to the fact that their strongest ally, Tussia, is currently involved in both propping up the Imperial regime and invading Spokane, this means that they are unwilling to alienate either party.

Elsewhere, the battle for Shurdorf continues to rage on, with both the Commonwealth and Empire making limited gains at a heavy price. However, recent readjustment of Biggonian forces by the Empire to face the rebellious threat in Domlandia means that it is likely the Commonwealth will be able to make progress in the near future.

Finally, in the Domlandian capital of Musainin, it is now clear that a general retreat from the city has been ordered, as the Imperial Biggonian Army instead opted to begin encircling the city and begin a counterattack. Edgar Nashood, leader of the Domlandian national front, led the final assault on the Domlandian Assembly and gave a speech, announcing both the reinstation of the Domlandian Republic but also declaring a state of emergency, making him President, Prime Minister and head of the army. For now, his primary intentions seem to be forcing a ceasefire with Biggonia and then dealing with the socialist threat, whom he frequently refers to as 'traitors' despite their continued resistance to Biggonian occupation.

Crises and rising oil demand

Boom for synthetic fibres. There is a high demand for synthetic fibres, especially for the automotive industry, but also for apparel and fabric coverings and coatings. It is estimated that production and sales have increased by 55% compared to the previous year. Petrochemical products have increased due to higher oil costs in the region and the desert state is currently one of the cheapest suppliers due to high oil reserves. "The oil price is going up because of the crisis in Spokane and also elsewhere you can feel the tension in the air," said a spokesperson for the state-owned oil company of Ofrus. Ofrus is currently selling its oil a quarter per gallon more expensive than 6 months ago. However, aluminium sales are down by 6.5% due to bauxite delivery difficulties. Extreme rainfall flooded a mine in the south of the country and production has been stopped as a result.

The Shipping Plot - Part 1

Four men sat around a table as they watched the news on the Tussian Broadcasting Corporation’s news channel. The anchor was at his table with the script laid out in front of him.

“An estimated twenty to thirty thousand men are being sent to the nation of Singhapala Bisaya along with a declaration of war against Spokane. This follows a recent rise of ten-”

One of the men, who was around thirty years old, grabbed the remote and turned it off.

“What a load of rubbish, wouldn’t you say? Sending our men off to war against a nation that’s done little against us.”

“Well, they have attacked our allies so we have a reason, but there have to be better ways than this. Diplomacy is usually an option. What a world we live in… fighting each other for nothing more than power.”

The youngest of the men, who was about twenty-two, spoke up, “well why don’t we do something? We have some resources. After all, the Republicans are around. Spiros,” he looked to the oldest, “didn’t you say you have some contacts with them? We should try and disrupt the war effort with whatever we can. Show that we won’t send our brothers off to die in a war across the world.”

Spiros thought for a few seconds. It sounded like it could be a good idea, but the question would be how. “Do you have anything in mind?” He asked the other.

The youngest shrugged and looked at the others, who didn’t say anything. “Let’s brainstorm some ideas. We meet up sometime soon back here at your apartment with what we have drawn up.”

Spiros would nod, “sounds good. Anyone up to watch some baseball?”

It will call into service about 30,000 reservists and 35,000 soldiers from the Ofrusian army, as well as 17,000 volunteer men and women. Thus, the initial strength are in total about 42,000 men and women. "Ofrus wants to help other countries to stabilise and to bring peace a little closer, that's why we founded this new branch, but also to expand our diplomacy and also to share knowledge and experience for your and our benefits. We want to play a part in maintaining a presence in the region and interregionally as a strong and influential peace keeping nation." according to the minister of defense. This millitary branch is also open for volunteers around the world and is therefore open to applications.

ASI - AIE - DCT

20 July 2022

The Internal Security Agency, the External Intelligence Agency, and the Directorate for the Coordination of Counterterrorism make this joint release to update the press and the public on the latest security threats in Artevenia.

Colsakan Atrêr Xzecar

The CAX (Colsakan Atrêr Xzecar) remains an active threat. While the group says that it is progressing towards a ceasefire, such statements should be viewed with caution. The group has stated that Astranian seperatism remains a goal.

Army of the Saints

After the declaration of the "Global Crusade" by the Army of the Saints in April 28, there has been an increase in activities from the terrorist organization. Starting from July, there has been a further increase in the organization's activity. The Army of the Saints is currently believed to have around eighteen thousand members.

Special measures have been taken to disrupt the online propaganda apparatus of the Army of the Saints. The Artevenian Republic continues to cooperate with online service providers in Artevenia to take down Army of the Saints content promptly.

The Army of the Saints is active in Artevenia as well as abroad, mainly in other countries in Northern Amnis. It is presently known that the terrorist organization has a base in the Bonnie Blue Republic. BBR authorities have been uncooperative in regards to cracking down on terrorist activity.

The Army of the Saints has stated that their goals are to overthrow the current international order and install a worldwide theocracy.

Other groups

Assorted right-wing militant groups, such as the Order of the Phalanx and the Soldiers of the Race, continue to be a threat. There have been assorted plots to commit terror attacks motivated by racial supremacism.

Part 27: Our People’s War (Chapter 2: The People’s Post)

“7/20/2022.

Coalition strikes continue to hinder Spokanite efforts.

This morning, Kath military experts confirmed several missile strikes across Southern Spokane. Despite their limited operations at this stage, several strikes were confirmed across the South within hundreds of miles from the epicenter, being the Sea of Spokane. The daring raid itself was the first in many strikes, said a Kath official as the Kath military prepares to bring more force to bear alongside her allies once the naval war is dominated by Coalition forces.

In the naval war, in the Sea of Spokane, the Spokanite Frigate Rochester was sunk by the Canal West Kath-led Task Force. The frigate was scuttled off the coast of Spokane following a two hour skirmish off the coast of Brant Island. As well, the Spokanite patrol boat Cactus was confirmed sunk after being hit by the HDS Santorset.”

A number of people died and at least nine Spokanite soldiers were injured in an unexplained incident at a nuclear power plant in Southern Spokane today, a Kath official said as cell phone footage was released on Spokanite media. There has been no word yet from the Spokanite side on what happened, though several unconfirmed rumors exist.”

Ofrus offered Artevenia war on terror

[I]Ofrus has offered Artevenia to launch with our newly founded international peace keeping troops a war on terror in Artevenia to eliminate terrorist separatists. Unfortunately, the offer was rejected because Artevenia does not allow no-IDA troops in Artevenia. The operation would have gigantic proportions and a length of 6 months and would disarm terrorists in Artevenia and secure borders to ensure the sovereignty of the country. "In the longer term, it would be the only solution to protect civilians domestically and internationally. However Ofrus sanctions all clans and puts terrorists caught on Ofrusian soil under death penalty. In the coming days our cyber security will launch a razia and we will merciless eliminate people with ties to these groups in our territories." quote by Internal Security Secretariat. [/I]
