Neubayern

  • Dip: We accept Britannia's offer to purchase the KMS Vereinigung. The transfer ceremony will take place later this year as the Vereinigung is prepared for transfer and repainted to Britannia's preference. Please state the new designation of the vessel.
  • ELECTIONS: The 1005 Federal Elections take place! The results are as follows:
    • National Liberal Party: 298/590 seats – 50.5%.
    • Democratic Unity Front: 187/590 seats – 31.7%.
    • Green Front: 80/590 seats – 13.6%.
    • Socialist Party: 18/590 seats – 3.1%.
    • Christian Democratic Union: 6/590 seats – 1.0%.
    • Independent: 1/590 seats – 0.2%.
    • RESULT: The National Liberal Party for the fourth time wins the elections, albeit very closely, and Reichsleiter Sara Mahler begins her fourth term of office. The Democratic Unity Front retains all seats it won before in the 1002 Elections, and also gains several more, all remarkably from the National Liberal Party - the DEN under Konstantin Wolff once again becomes the Opposition party, and Wolff becomes Leader of the Opposition. The Green Front has lost seats to the Democratic Unity Front, while the Christian Democratic Front has won several seats from the Socialist Party. One independent, Klaus Engelberg, has won a seat in northwest Nordkreinland. The 46th Reichsparlament will thus open!

Republic of O'Brian:We start developing a military and civil equivalents of both Microsoft Windows ME, Plan 9 from Bell Labs and RISC OS. A new paint factory and paper mill open in New Belfast. Coal mining is slightly expanded. Flood defenses are improved. Colour TV is introduced in the New Dublin-New Belfast urbanisation. IT lessons continue in all schools that have O'Brian and/or Neubayern computers in them and the the Bachscom OS V 14.8.5 operating system is very popular with the public as a whole. The civil ro-ro class car ferry Teeth and both the navy's offshore patrol vessels Felix and Shamrock are launched after there 1 year build time has now finished.

Confederation of Washington Bay: New elections take place. other things etc. we continue to steer a isolationist course.

  • O'Brien dip: We offer you an embassy in our capital, New Dublin. We also offer to sell you our eggs, butter, milk, cheese, sand and gravel if you want it.
  • We accept

The Frigate ONV O'Brian will be designed like this.

HMS Somerset (F82)

The Frigate ONV Fiacla will be designed like this.

Republic of O'Brien:A improved variant of current O'Brian equivalent of the Rolls-Royce Pegasus engine is drawn up.  It will start production in 6 months time. The IT lessons start to produce some results in school leavers and continue to take place.The Frigate ONV O'Brian (1980's tech) will be built over the next year in New Belfast. Plans for the Frigate ONV Fiacla (1990's tech) are drawn up. 100 field mortars, 1,000 rifles and 20 army trucks are made. 200 new sailors are recruited for the navy.The government announces it's intention end its intent to float the O'Brian Punt and end the fiscal union with Ross, whether Ross wants it or not O'Brian will end the fiscal union in 1007 anyhow! The state gives some subsidies to minor shops and garages in the more remoter rural places. Some fiscal insentives are given to people wishing to start computer or mobile phone shops in the big cities. Income tax goes up for 2 years by 1% (rich 26%, middle earners 21% and poor people 11%) to help fund the government projects. Several new quarries are made around Derry and 200 tonnes of granite stone gravel is horded in a Dornoch large depot for 'covert industrial reasons', whilst the rest is to be sold on the open market. Rural farming is expanded modestly. (eco, mil, tech)

  • O'Brien Dip: Eggs, milk, gravel, sand, beef and potatoes are now also offered as a growing cash crop and exported to any non-player nation that wants them. (I ask the mod to decide if any of the non-payer states also agree to trade).

Britannian Empire:The Britannian empire conducts research on robotics and nanotechnology, seeing the massive potential they could bring to everyday life, particularly the military and industry sectors of the Empire. The military of Britannia continues to be expanded as Emperor Lelouch reintroduces conscription. The manufacturing of much more advanced weapons, particularly the Iris-class battlefield companion, a helmet armed with the logistical capabilities of an entire command center, and the Gaudraught next-gen assault rifles. The Imperial Air Force sees the largest expansion, seeing as Britannia's strategic location in the middle of Sebastiana as a feasible location to launch air raids across the entire continent. 80% of aircraft for the air force is capable of vertical takeoff, while bombers are armed with more explosive payloads guided by laser technology. The Imperial Navy constructs its first aircraft carrier, the HMS Britannia, capable of fielding 90 aircraft and 4 submarines. More smaller navy vessels, such as destroyers and Missile cruisers are built. With the massive amount of government spending in the military, this causes an economic boom as more and more jobs are made with the increasing demand for manufacturing goods are met. To complement Britannia's growing population, more and more farm collectives, pastures, and plantations are built (Mil/Eco/Tech). We also accept the O'Brien offer of exchanging embassies

  • O'Brien Dip: We will sell our eggs, milk, butter, gravel, sand, beef and potatoes to the Britannian Empire, if they want them.

1006[]

Neubayern

  • Royal News: Wonderful joy! In January Göttingen Palace in Rhineburg announced that Crown Princess Helena was with child, three months pregnant! It has been determined that the new royal child is a girl. The press release also revealed the unborn baby's name: Aria Georgia Henrietta. Thus, she will be referred to as Her Imperial Highness Princess Aria of Rhineburg. The father-to-be the Grand Duke Consort of Rhineburg expressed his exhilaration at the news: "Our child will be the first of a new generation of Hohensbergs and Pavyluchenkos!" Princess Aria will be indeed the first grandchild of both Kaiser Heinrich III and Tsar Sergei I. Thus, Aria will be in line for both the thrones of Neubayern and Novodonetsk.
  • Prince Dimitri requests a different name
  • Suggestions?
  • Royal News: The Royal Family has also something else to celebrate about as Princess Elisabeth, the Duchess of Hoffmann, has passed her HSZ exams with flying colours! She is now to enter Ludwigsberg University to study music and Donetskian. Congratulations to the Duchess!

Republic of O'Brien:The improved variant of current O'Brian equivalent of the Rolls-Royce Pegasus engine is now under production. The IT lessons start to produce some more educational results in school leavers and continue to take place. Most schools now have between 2 and 4 computers in them. The Frigate ONV Fiacla (1990's tech) starts it's 1 year of building. 100 field mortars, 1,000 rifles and 20 army trucks are made. 200 new sailors are recruited for the navy. The government gets public support over it's intention end it's intent to float the O'Brian Punt and end the fiscal union with Ross, whether Ross wants it or not O'Brian will end the fiscal union in 1007, but some bankers are worried. National insurance goes up by 1p from 5p to 6p in each Punt for the foreseeable future (pension reserve 10,000 Punt per head). A major new computer factory opens in Carickfergus. A new Carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer factory is built in New Belfast. The economy begins to grow slightly more than usual. Several new quarries are made around Derry and 200 tonnes of granite stone gravel is horded in a Dornoch large depot for 'covert industrial reasons', whilst the rest is to be sold on the open market. Rural farming is expanded modestly. Plans are drafted to privatise 50% of the state owned postal service in 6 month time. The economy begins to grow slightly more than usual. (eco, mil, tech)

DSR North Orientalia: The Saikō brothers continue reforming and partially opening up the country. Pop culture had been opened up by Saikō Orochi because he believes it had stagnated, and with good reason. North Orientalian pop culture today resemble those of 950s South Orientalia but with a communist twist. In an attempt to spread the communist ideology, we continue supporting left-wing movements The reforms continue, building roads, schools and hospitals, expanding airfields and creating a tourist industry, pitching the country as a socialist paradise. Athletics and soccer are promoted to encourage physical fitness among the young. SECRET: We are continuing work on a program only known as "Project ADONIS", whose aim is to synthesize a super-soldier with the use of testosterone. Also attempts to give aid to and forge an alliance with the Alliance to Restore Democracy to Terra Alba in the form of arms, artillery, and food aid. Two operatives were sent to Terra Alba, namely Kagami Hirayama and Genji Kuwahara. The former was assigned to train left-wing militias for the Alliance; the latter to estalish an underground movement within the Holy Empire of the White Lands. Limited liberal reforms begin to be drafted, and we continue propping up the People's Republic of Mabuda by sending more teachers, doctors, nurses and construction workers. We also attempt to gain friendship with Zarinthia, as a possible ally and a market for our produce. Meanwhile in the People's Republic of Mabuda, Edward Mbudu, an activist, is elected and proclaimed as president. Akashi Tokugawa, who was once the commander of a fruitless mission in Rome, becomes our ambassador for Mabuda.

The University of Königstadt's St Dieter's Chapel

Efforts to work on the robot found at an archaeological site years ago are renewed. Scientists begin probing the robot's programming and memories to find out more about humanity's past.

  • O'Brien Dip: We are interested by this 'archaeological site robot', could it be connected to the small CD we found in a New Dublin site 60 years go. We don't have the tech to read it since the OS is way to advanced, but we will give it to the scientists who have the robot and see if they can use it.
  • Scientists' response: We thank O'Brien for their contribution.

Neubayern

  • Royal News: The Royal Family welcomes its newest member, Princess Aria! Aria was born to Crown Princess Helena and Prince Demetrius via natural birth at Princess Aurora Hospital in Rhineburg City on 3rd July. Princess Helena will now redouble her efforts as she catches up on all she missed out on while on 'maternity leave' from her medical studies at the University of Königstadt.
    • ATTENTION NOVODONETSK: What name do you suggest instead of Aria?
  • Infrastructure: We begin construction of a high-speed rail system known as the HRTS (Hyper-Rasch Transportsystem, Hyper-Rapid Transport System). As its name suggests, the HRTS, which will more informally be known as the Hyper-Eisen (lit. Hyper-Iron) will be a high-speed railway consisting of many maglev lines stretching all throughout the country, connecting every major city in Neubayern, and thus all the railways of each division in the country. In short, the HRTS will become the new national railway. The first class of train to run on the line is currently under development, and maximum speeds for the trains have been projected to be close to 320 km/h.

The New Dublin tram in the southern suburb of Croydon Lane.

Republic of O'Brien:The New Dublin tramway is expanded from a 3 line 12 stop system to a 5 line 25 stop system and the trams are replaced by near modern grade ones. We build many new schools, power stations, cheese factories, cattle farms and hospitals. Schooling is improved drastically and a new 2 track railway line now links the village of Flynn with Derry and Carikfugus. Derry air base, New Dublin airport and New Belfast heliport are expanded. A tourist industry, pitching the country as a Celtic historical and cultural wonderland is made. The ONV O'Brien is now finished and launched. 100 field mortars, 15 Helix Class SAM (analogous to S-75 Dvina missiles), 500 rifles, 150 machine pistols, 2 VSTL fighter jets and 20 APCs are made. 200 new sailors and 200 troopers are recruited for the navy. The 100 most experienced troopers and sailors form the An O'Brien fórsa ionsaí náisiúnta ceilte (The O'Brien Covert National Attack Force (or the: OCNAF)) and start there 2 years training in elite warfare and survival skills. Secret: we start work on a new hi-tech anti-tank missile (2000s tech level, equivalent of FGM-148 Javelin and Type 01 LMAT) at Fort Dornoch.  The state telecoms firm is 49% sold off with 40% going to the O'Brien public and a 10% to be sold to a firm from Neubayern, if they would like it. The cash is stashed away as a fiscal reserve for time of crisis. With this the armed forces see the end of their spending spree as cash goes to wards trams, the treasury reserve and future factory technological development. Stamp duty on selling houses goes up by 1% from 1% to 2% and is spent on national housing upgrades. (eco, inf, mil).

  • Reich Broadcasting Corporation: The RBC, Neubayern's semi-state-owned national broadcasting company, accepts the offer to purchase 10% of O'Brien Telecom.

DSR North Orientalia: Pop culture continues to flourish. In an attempt to spread the communist ideology, we continue supporting left-wing movements The reforms continue, building roads, schools and hospitals, expanding airfields and creating a tourist industry, pitching the country as a socialist paradise. Athletics and soccer are promoted to encourage physical fitness among the young. One of the most striking educational and linguistic reform enacted is the use of the long-forgotten Tonghab script, which is a modified form of Cyrillic intended for unifying the dialects under a single alphabet, for daily commercial use, finding the use of Hanji, Kanaji, and Hangoji simultaneously as cumbersome for practical purposes. SECRET: We are continuing work on a program only known as "Project ADONIS", whose aim is to synthesize a super-soldier with the use of testosterone. Also attempts to give aid to and forge an alliance with the Alliance to Restore Democracy to Terra Alba in the form of arms, artillery, and food aid. Two operatives were sent to Terra Alba, namely Kagami Hirayama and Genji Kuwahara. The former was assigned to train left-wing militias for the Alliance; the latter to establish an underground movement within the Holy Empire of the White Lands. (RNG: 1-3 Hirayama and Kuwahara gets intercepted; 3-5 only Hirayama gets intercepted; 6-10 both entered Terra Alba without raising alarm.)

We accept the trade deal of the Republic of O'Brien for eggs, milk, butter, gravel, sand, beef and potatoes (to supply an industrial boom) and to swap embassies and ambassadors. Limited liberal reforms begin to be drafted, and we continue propping up the People's Republic of Mabuda by sending more teachers, doctors, nurses and construction workers. We also attempt to gain friendship with Zarinthia, as a possible ally and a market for our produce. We invite the following heads of state and government to the inauguration ceremony of Edward Mbudu as the first President of the People's Republic of Mabuda: 

  • The Neubayerisch Royal Family
  • The Reichsleiter of Neubayern and her family
  • The Donetskian Royal Family
  • The Prime Minister of Novodonetsk and family
  • The South Orientalian Royal Family
  • The Prime Minister of South Orientalia
  • The Leader of the Darian Federation
  • The President and Taoiseach of O'Brien (and families)
  • The President of Zarinthia and family
    • O'Brien Dip: We agree to attend.
    • Neubayerisch response: The Kaiser and Reichsleiter both thank you for the invitation. The Kaiser and the rest of the Royal Family, including newborn Princess Aria, will attend the inauguration of President Mbudu in their first state visit to Mabuda. However, as Reichsparlament will be sitting at the time of the inauguration, Reichsleiter Sara Mahler will be unable to attend. Thus, Ambassador to North Orientalia Kira Josefsen will represent the Reich Government in her stead.

1007[]

President Edward Mbudu is inaugurated as the first President of Mabuda. In attendance are, among many others, the Royal Family of Neubayern, the Neubayerisch Ambassador to North Orientalia Kira Josefsen, and the President and Taoiseach of O'Brien. The Kaiser gives a speech at the inauguration ceremony, celebrating over ten years of fruitful and peaceful cooperation between Neubayern and North Orientalia.

Neubayern

  • Infrastructure: We have settled upon the design of our prototype train for the HRTS. We have built a testing/construction facility in Kitheria, the Netherlands, including test tracks, for the prototype as well as for further models which may come in the future. The contract for the HRTS trains has been awarded to Adlertechnik AG. They have started work on the prototype train. Meanwhile, the actual train lines are 10% complete: The line that is to connect the Imperial Cities of Munich and Georgetown is 30% complete. HRTS platforms are currently being added to the Central Stations of Munich and Georgetown.

MOD EVENT: After the inauguration of President Mbudu, at which several high-profile government officials of North Orientalia were present, Mabudan anti-communists opened fire upon the guests at the inauguration.

  • RNG: 2 (8 - 10: High casualties, many injuries; 5 - 7: Medium casualty rate, many injuries; 3 - 4: Few casualties, some injuries; 1 - 2: No casualties, few injuries; 0: No casualties, no injuries): None were killed in the incident, although several were injured, including the young Prince Franz, whose shoulder was grazed by a stray bullet. The people of Neubayern are enraged by this gunfight.
  • Neubayern: The Reich denounces the Mabudan rebels and while our government firmly stands by our sociopolitical ideology of true democracy and capitalism and wishes to avoid returning to a semi-communist state as during the Democratic Unity era, we believe that the Mabudan anti-communists' actions were completely uncalled for and unnecessary. It also endangered the lives of our Royal Family and of the Ambassador, as well as all others who were present at the inauguration. Thus, we offer our assistance to the Mabudan and North Orientalian authorities to apprehend these insurgents and stop them before they harm any more people.
  • Military: The decommissioned KMS Vereinigung is transferred to the Royal Britannian Navy. We wish the RBN luck with the Vereinigung, whatever its fate is to be.

Republic of O'Brien: The President and Taoiseach (both suffered minor injuries in their legs) denounce the Mabudan rebels as terrorists and said that peaceful protest is better than using violence. The Gardi (O'Brian's police force) offer the use of the New Dublin forensic lab, if it is needed by Mabuda.

  • Economy: As a cost cutting and efficacy move, car assembly robots become the main workforce in the New Belfast tractor, car and bus factories. The workers who lost there jobs are mostly re-trained successfully in the high tech sectors and transportation. Beer duty goes up 1% to 6% to help boost fiscal reserves in case of a economic down tern. Opinion polls show 76% of the public support fiscal indipendence and an end to vasseldom.
  • Military: The Frigate ONV Fiacla is finished and launched thus bringing the navy up to strength. 150 hand grenades, 1,000 pistols, 500 rifles, 5 fighter jets, 5 Helix Class SAM (analogous to S-75 Dvina) and 25 anti-tank missiles (akin to the the M47 Dragon) are made, thus bringing our army up to strength. Secret: 50 more anti-tak missiles are made. They are more hi-tech anti-tank missiles, 25 (comparable to the FGM-148 Javelin) and 25 (comparable to the Type 01 LMAT.) A new army base opens near Cardiff and Carickfurgus navel base gains a new dock yard. Opinion polls show 74% of the public support military independence and an end to vasseldom.
  • Technology Proto-type fiber-optic phone lines are tried out in a Carickfugus lab. Mobile phone masts become commonplace in the major urban locations. A new Carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer factory is built in New Belfast to make improved rotor blades for our helicopters. Massive investment in factory robots, carbon-fiber made stuff, home computers and solar powered pocket calculators begins in earnest. 95% of schools now have at lest 2 computers in them.
    • O'Brien Dip: We will sell our eggs, milk, butter, gravel, sand, beef and potatoes to the Mabudan government, if they want them. Want to swap embassies and ambassadors.

Neubayern

  • Infrastructure: The HRTS is now 20% complete. The Georgchen Line (name combines the German names of Munich and Georgetown) is currently well on its way to completion. Completion of the Georgchen line is expected by 1009. Also under construction are the Essenblum Line between New Leipzig and Blumenhoff City, and the Kreinland Circuit Line, a large circle connecting the urban centres of North and South Kreinland, and Kreinland-Blumenhoff. The prototype train for the HRTS is almost complete and ready for testing.
  • Royal News: The Reich celebrates the 20th anniversary of the late Prince Georg's investiture as Crown Prince. A statue on the grounds of Hohensberg Palace depicting him is raised in his memory.
  • Military: The Kaiser embarks on a tour of Neubayerisch military installations and deployments, beginning with those of the Kriegsmarine. During the next six months he visits the KMS Franz Josef Dietrich, the Kriegsmarine's flagship, KMS Kronprinz Georg, the sister ship of the Dietrich; the 2nd Fleet currently deployed in the Yamamoto Ocean; and the 4th and 6th Fleets currently deployed near Glaciemius. He also visits the military bases of the Kriegsheer around the world.
  • Exploration: We are planning missions to explore the largely unknown continent of Glaciemius surrounding the south pole of our planet! What mysteries shall we uncover? We invite Novodonetsk, the Orientalias, Britannia and Zarinthia to join us in our quest to explore the icy lands of Glaciemius.
    • O'Brien Dip: We would like to send a couple of geologists with your team to the southern pole.
  • O'Brien
    • Economy::The recent rise in over seas trade causes a massive spike in the economy and stocks, so we get bullish stockbrokers and the government bans the short-selling of stocks. Consumer goods and cars are bought in large numbers as money enters the sysem as wages. Car tax goes up 1% to 2%. National insurance goes up by 1p from 6p to 7p in each Punt, until a personal total of £11,000 Punt are accrued from each person (up 1,000 Punt per capita). A lot of the left over cash goes on hospitals and schools. The Punt is now floated as an independent currency and fluctuates in value for several weeks. We do not need to be a vessel any more.
    • Military::20 shoulder launched SAM (akin to the AGM-176 Griffin), 5 interceptor jets, 2 attack helicopters and 1 VSTOL fighter jet are built, as is a and air base and navy radar post at Carickfurgus. The air force is up to strength. An O'Brien Fórsa Ionsaí Náisiúnta Ceilte (The O'Brien Covert National Attack Force (or the: OCNAF)) continues training up. We are strong enough not to need to be a vessel any more.
    • Infrastructure: All rural railways are raised from 2 lines to 4 lines; 2 in each direction. Rural roads are repaired and upgraded. A heliport opens in Derry. Many teachers, doctors, nurses and construction workers are recruited, as schools, youth clubs and hospitals are built in rural regions. Some proto-type fiber-optic phone lines are laid in New Dublin and Derry.

  • Infrastructure: The HRTS is now 40% complete. The Georgchen Line (name combines the German names of Munich and Georgetown) is almost complete. Completion of the Georgchen line is expected by 1009. Also under construction are the Essenblum Line between New Leipzig and Blumenhoff City, and the Kreinland Circuit Line, a large circle connecting the urban centres of North and South Kreinland, and Kreinland-Blumenhoff. Both lines are now 30% complete; completion is expected by the middle of 1011. The prototype train for the HRTS, now dubbed the P0-Series, is complete and is currently undergoing testing. New lines are now under construction as the government is now pouring more and more funding into the HRTS. The Nordrom Circuit Line (North Rome) is now under construction, intended to connect the duchies of Heinrichsburg, Siegstadt, Alexandria and Georgetown. Georgetown will become a gateway to what is known as the Nordrom region (named after New Rome, the government formerly occupying these parts) for the rest of Neubayern, and vice versa, as the Georgchen Line also terminates at Georgetown.
  • Military: The Kaiser continues his tour of Neubayerisch military installations and deployments, and is now touring those of the Luftwaffe. During the next six months he visits the Luftwaffe Training Academies in Munich, Königstadt, New Amsterdam and Lonenberg.
  • Exploration: We are planning missions to explore the largely unknown continent of Glaciemius surrounding the south pole of our planet! What mysteries shall we uncover? We invite Novodonetsk, the Orientalias, Britannia and Zarinthia to join us in our quest to explore the icy lands of Glaciemius.
    • Britannian DIP: We accept
  • ELECTIONS: A new round of elections are held for Reichsparlament. For the first time the Nordrom region is able to participate in the elections, and has been divided into ten electorates, thus creating ten new seats. The results are as follows:
    • NLP: 183/600 (30.5%)
    • DEN: 323/600 (53.8%)
    • GFN: 64/600 (10.7%)
    • SPN: 29/600 (4.8%)
    • CDU: 0/600 (0%)
    • Independent: 1/600 (0.1%)
    • RESULTS: The National Liberal Party has suffered severely this election, losing more than half of its seats to other parties. The Democratic Unity Front has made a significant comeback, winning a majority of seats. The Christian Democratic Union lost all its seats, and leaves Reichsparlament for the next parliamentary term. Konstantin Wolff, leader of the DEN, is now Reichsleiter. Sara Mahler, for the first time in twelve years, is now Leader of the Opposition.

O'Brien:Colour analog TV is now normal on both channels. Digital TV and radio starts up in New Dublin and is a big success. Railway and road upgrading is about 50% done. 150 hand grenades, 150 rifls, 5 Helix Class SAM (analogous to S-75 Dvina) are made. We also offer to sell the Madudan government 50 hand grenades and 100 pistols. 

Britannian Empire: The Veireinigung is renamed the HMS Nightmare. The Britannian empire conducts research on robotics and nanotechnology, seeing the massive potential they could bring to everyday life, particularly the military and industry sectors of the Empire. The military of Britannia continues to be expanded as Emperor Lelouch reintroduces conscription. The manufacturing of much more advanced weapons, particularly the Iris-class battlefield companion, a helmet armed with the logistical capabilities of an entire command center, and the Gaudraught next-gen assault rifles. The Imperial Air Force sees the largest expansion, seeing as Britannia's strategic location in the middle of Sebastiana as a feasible location to launch air raids across the entire continent. 80% of aircraft for the air force is capable of vertical takeoff, while bombers are armed with more explosive payloads guided by laser technology. The Imperial Navy constructs its first aircraft carrier, the HMS Britannia, capable of fielding 90 aircraft and 4 submarines. More smaller navy vessels, such as destroyers and Missile cruisers are built. With the massive amount of government spending in the military, this causes an economic boom as more and more jobs are made with the increasing demand for manufacturing goods are met. To complement Britannia's growing population, more and more farm collectives, pastures, and plantations are built (Mil/Eco/Tech).

DSR North Orientalia: Following the gun attack, the Saiko brothers, and the government as an institution, condemned the anti-communist rebels as "counterrevolutionaries" and a last straw by the warlords to destabilize the government of Mabuda.  A military offensive is launched along with the Mabudan aremed forces to crush the insurgents, seen as the last remnants of the warlord machinery who once ruled the region prior to Republic's creation. 5,000 Orientalian soldiers are sent under the command of Major General Franz Jaeger, the highest ranking ethnically non-Orientalian officer in the army. Meanwhile, Saiko Genshu's health contiditon, following the attack, made a turn for the worse. Despite his minimal injuries from a grenade blast, he suffers an internal trauma, manifesting as a severe heart palpitation and worsening aneurysm, that dated back long before his rise to power.

Both lines are now halfway to completion, which is expected by the middle of 1011. The prototype train for the HRTS, now dubbed the P0-Series, has been tested. Maximum velocity has been determined to be an impressive 320 kilometres per hour. Improvements on the design will be made to create the 0-Series, the first trains to be used on HRTS lines. New lines are now under construction as the government is now pouring more and more funding into the HRTS. The Nordrom Circuit Line (North Rome) is now under construction, intended to connect the duchies of Heinrichsburg, Siegstadt, Alexandria and Georgetown.

Also attempts to give aid to and forge an alliance with the Alliance to Restore Democracy to Terra Alba in the form of arms, artillery, and food aid. Two operatives were sent to Terra Alba, namely Kagami Hirayama and Genji Kuwahara. The former was assigned to train left-wing militias for the Alliance; the latter to establish an underground movement within the Holy Empire of the White Lands. RNG: 10 (1-3 Hirayama and Kuwahara gets intercepted; 3-5 only Hirayama gets intercepted; 6-10 both entered Terra Alba without raising alarm.) Both infiltrated Terra Alba without detection. Hirayama had assembled an effective fighting force of 4,000 men in a short time, while Kuwahara managed to make connections with local dissidents.

Republic O'Brien: More fiber-optic phone lines are laid in the republic. We send the container ships OMNV Maria and OMNV Connor to look at the coast of Glaciemius and fly a UAV type drone aircraft a few miles over the eastern cost line. We see ice, snow, glaciers, a few rocks penguins, walruses and seals on it.

Neubayern Mabuda uniform differences (New World Map Game)

Oftentimes Mabudan and Neubayericsh uniforms get mistaken for each other. Shown here are Generalfeldmarschall Constaze Renner and the Kaiser in war uniform.

  • People's Republic of Mabuda: Following his inauguration as president, Edward Mbudu takes responsibility in the offensive against the remnant warlord forces in west. The Mabudans, aided by 5,000 soldiers under the command of Major General Franz Jaeger, pushed them back from the coastal regions, liberating the capital city of Mutero from the threat created by them. A new offensive is drafted to capture the inland and border towns and cities of Mutasa, Silisi, Ruzarde, Muptukidzwa, Kasenga, Mkonga, and Umbamba. President Mbudu also leads on the opening ceremony of the first meeting of the National Assembly.

  • Neubayerisch Dip: With the possibility of war within Mabuda, we temporarily recall the ambassadorial team to Neubayern to minimise damage to Neubayerisch assets in Mabuda. Reichsleiter Konstantin Wolff apologises to the People's Republic of Mabuda for the ambassador's departure, and promises that the Neubayerisch embassy will be re-established once order is restored in Mabuda.
  • Republic of O'Brian:
    Wrangelisland

    O'Brian island of the O'Higgins coast.

    NewWorldMap 1002 Islands

    The island is here.

    Railways are updated, more fiber-optic phone lines are laid in the republic and 3G phones are launched in Carickfurgus. We send the frigate ONV Fiacla to look at the coast of Glaciemius polar region and fly another type of camera carrying drone aircraft a few miles over the eastern cost line. We see ice, snow, glaciers, a few rocks, with penguins, walruses and seals on them. We claim a 3,000 km2 coastal island we see and the sea around it, up to 1 kilometer out from the coasts.
