Trobadork,

Feel free to let us know if you need any help with your history. Most of the nations in our region try to stay in sync with one another.

Can I also ask what is the origin of your people?

Thank you, I plan on working on a fact book overview.

Trobadorkians were originally tribal, who formed a republic system which rapidly accelerated their tech innnovation. In the late 20th century amidst years of corruption, a revolution instated a monarch. The monarchy has since adapted a constitution

Troop movement update

The troops mobilized around the border of The United Kingdom of The Armenians and the Kurds have shown retreating after the misunderstanding of the two governments. More troops have been send to Rusnia empire and some still remain to garrison the border patrol

The Savraan government once again asks the Rusnia empire’s leaders to join them in a conference in Lelies the about the ongoing tensions which will not longer be just tensions when the enemy doesn’t react.

Once again we don’t want aggression to take place, we want to work out a deal that merely benefits us both.

LDU VOTES TO JOIN THE FREE BLOC

The regional poll organised by Sjevre KLDU that asked members of the LDU whether they wanted to join The Free Bloc has ended with 70% voting in favour of joining.

"I want to thank you for your courage to vote in the referendum," said Sjevre.

"I am happy and proud to announce that we will be joining the TFB alliance. Next steps will be taken with the chairman of the alliance. I very much hope that as many of you as possible join the discord of this alliance (located in the region of the alliance itself), which is the central place for communication. The various members will certainly welcome us there.

The region is safer now, all thanks to your willingness to review the proposal and actually vote. I and the rest of the administration thank you for this."

Sjevre is now currently discussing specific details of the LDU's membership of TFB with its chairman and has already requested embassies with The Free Bloc.

FILIPINN RELINQUISHES MAP CLAIM

Filipinn has relinquished his claim on the regional map and has split his land between PotenziaKLDU and Das viertes kaiserreich after announcing that he has lost interest in NationStates.

"You may have noticed my inactivity this month," he said.

"This is mainly because I have lost interest in Nationstates. Because of this, for RP reasons, I want to split Filipinn between Potenzia and Das Viertes Kaiserreich. Filipinn will be split across the 45th parallel. Potenzia will be having the southern half, and the DVK will have the north. For both nations, say that the Cobbett family has permanently stepped down from the throne due to multiple ultra-nationalist attacks and general civil unrest.

Thank you all for making NS so fun."

It is likely that Filipinn will be leaving NationStates for a long time, so we at the LDU Regional News Service have decided to showcase the best of his contributions to the Regional Message Board below:

THE LATEST UPDATES ON THE SITUATION IN GREATER RUTAN

A photo of the ongoing unrest in Greater Rutan.

President Rowell Benovedez of Greater Rutan attempted to calm down the crowd of people protesting and rebelling against his rule.

Protestors initally took to the streets to demonstrate because of the ongoing economic crisis that began because of Greater Rutan's war against Potenzia.

During Benovedez's speech, he was shot twice and was rushed to hospital in critical condition. The crowd of demonstrators gathered around the hospital, but declared a 3 day ceasefire.

Some patients in the hospital were scared of the violence happening outside and attempted to turn Benovedez over to the protesters.

However, they were not successful.

Meanwhile, many Rutanian troops were infected with what was believed to be Moroccan flu, and ended up spreading the disease when they came home to help their families.

The disease is easily vaccinated against, but vaccines are scarce in Greater Rutan, and as such, thousands of people died.

General Justinian used his much-reduced army to capture Casablanca and some other regional capitals, and this has created a half-circle around the city of Rabat.

His troops dropped propaganda leaflets over the cities that they hadn't captured yet.

Scientists from Potenzia soon found out that "Moroccan flu" was actually monkeypox. Greater Rutan is now currently in the process of buying vaccines for it.

CONSERVATIVE PARTY WINS VANTIERIAN ELECTION

Vantierian soldiers driving through the streets of Ampuries after
successfully overthrowing the Vantierian government.

The Conservative Party of Vantier has won this year's election, ending the military dictatorship that was established during the coup.

65% of Vantierian voters voted for the Conservatives.

However, voter turnout has decreased to 55%

Typical voter turnout in Vantier is at levels of 65-70%.

This means that voter turnout has decreased by 10-15 percentage points.

This has mostly been attributed to the Social Democrats and Communists refusing to vote.

During the coup, their parties were outlawed to prevent "leftist interference", according to the military authorities.

However, it is likely that the ban will be overturned by Justine Dugas, the leader of the new Conservative government.

Despite the low voter turnout, political analysts have described this as the best victory for the Conservatives in recent years.

International organisations around the world have so far denounced the election as illegitimate (due to the fact that the Social Democrats and Communists couldn't participate) and are urging countries around the world not to recognise the new government.

THE LATEST UPDATES ON THE IMPERIAL-CORPORATE WAR

Das viertes kaiserreich recognised Vantier's claim over Puerto Rico and pledged to help Vantier evade economic restrictions caused by sanctions.

Troops from DVK won the Battle of the Pacific and landed in Hokkaido. It is reported that Zaibatsu controlled japan originally planned on launching attacks on Vantier through the Panama Canal but all of their soldiers were soon recalled when they recieved news of the German victory in the Pacific and they are now attempting to defend their homeland.

There are now unconfirmed reports that the German Luftwaffe (air force) is using mustard gas against civilian targets in a plan called the "Persia Method".

Usage of chemical weapons and targeting civilian-populated areas are both prohibited by the Hague Conventions of 1899 and 1907, as well as the Geneva Protocol of 1925.

Chinese kuomintang states (Germany's ally) said that they would not "bow before the Japanese oppressors".

Zaibatsu controlled japan pledged to resist the Germans "with everything in our arsenal" and it is likely that scientists from Japan and the Arasaka megacorporation are working around the clock to develop nuclear weapons.

PASIFIKAANER SHIPS FOUND IN NORISTARDIAN WATERS

A picture of a ship.

A few days ago, ships from Pan-Pacific States entered Noristardian waters without permission.

"The Noristardian government asks the government of Pan-Pacific States to back off," said Noristard.

"Any other instances of ships located in our waters will be shot down and raided. Yes, this is a threat."

In response, the Pan-Pacific States government replied:

"We are not aware of any of our commercial or military ships near the area.

Any ships that may be flying the RPNS Ensign or MPS flag are not ours, and may be posing as such in violation of the international law of the sea.

We will move to intercept these impostors accordingly to ensure safety in our waters.

If you capture these vessels, we request that they be extradited towards Pasifikaaner waters so they may be tried in court, though having them sunk does not bother us."

So far, the vessels have not been captured yet.

It is likely they soon will be, however.

TROBADORK OPENS EMBASSIES WITH OTHER COUNTRIES

Trobadork has started opening embassies with other countries.

"Since recently opening our diplomacy to the nations of the world, Trobadork will be constructing embassies with Potenzia and Sjevre," said Queen Amelia I of Trobadork in a speech on Monday.

"Trobadork will also extend its military aid to assists its new diplomatic partner, Potenzia, in their recent conflict."

The speech was met with applause.

Queen Amelia was then invited to the opening of the first Trobadorkian embassy in Potenzia.

NEW MONKEYPOX OUTBREAK

A monkeypox particle.

The outbreak of what was previously believed to be "Moroccan flu" has now been revealed to be a new, more contagious form of monkeypox.

Cases of monkeypox have now been detected all over Europe.

Potenzian scientists published a paper which claimed that the outbreak started in Vantier, a nation that has a reputation for having poor sanitary conditions.

In response to the Potenzian paper, Vantierian scientists published a rebuttal, in which they claimed that the outbreak actually arose as a result of Potenzian tourists taking advantage of Vantier's relaxed prostitution laws.

Then, a new theory appeared in scientific circles in the Kingdom of the Indus, which stated that the disease actually leaked from the Ampuries Institute of Virology.

After that, online conspiracy theorists started claiming that Vantier purposefully engineered an existing strain of monkeypox to make it more contagious and then released it to act as a bioweapon.

Regardless of how it started, pharmaceutical companies around the world began work on developing vaccines.

One was developed in Tuthar and 15000 vials of it were sent to Greater Rutan.

Tuthar offered to give the Rutanians equipment to create their own vaccine, but only if they ended their ongoing war with Potenzia.

Vantier rejected the Tutharians' offer to send them vaccine because they disliked the fact that they were essentially blackmailing Rutan (Vantier's ally), and decided to attempt to create their own.

So far, they have not succeeded, and monkeypox cases in Vantier have multiplied by a factor of one thousand. It is thought that even if the vaccine is developed, only the elite 1% of Vantierians will be able to afford it.

GLORY BE FERRET ANNEXES ISLANDS

Glory Be Ferret has annexed the Chatham Islands, Stewart Island, and southern New Zealand due to overcrowding concerns.

GBF has announced that all natives who currently live on the islands will be allowed to apply for citizenship, and that they will be legal owners of the land they live on.

The government of Glory Be Ferret has allocated funds to build military bases along the coasts of the new territory to house anti ballistic missile and anti aircraft systems.

It is estimated these new military projects will cost billions of dollars.

TROOPS MOBILISED ON SJEVREAN-ARMENOKURD-RUSNIAN BORDER

Troops on the Sjevre-Rusnian-Armenokurd border.

Due to a misunderstanding between the governments of Sjevre, Rusnia empire and The Armenians and the Kurds, troops were mobilised on the border of those three countries.

For a few days, over 250,000 troops were patrolling the border.

Tensions rose rapidly.

Eventually, the Sjevrean and Armenokurd governments agreed to bring most of their troops home.

Sjevre then invited the Rusnia Empire to negotiate a reduction of troops at a conference in Lelies.

The tension has now mostly defused.

Meanwhile, many Rutanian troops were infected with what was believed to be Moroccan flu, and ended up spreading the disease when they came home to help their families.

The disease is easily vaccinated against, but vaccines are scarce in Greater Rutan, and as such, thousands of people died.

General Justinian used his much-reduced army to capture Casablanca and some other regional capitals, and this has created a half-circle around the city of Rabat.

His troops dropped propaganda leaflets over the cities that they hadn't captured yet.

Scientists from Potenzia soon found out that "Moroccan flu" was actually monkeypox. Greater Rutan is now currently in the process of buying vaccines for it.

CONSERVATIVE PARTY WINS VANTIERIAN ELECTION

successfully overthrowing the Vantierian government.

The Conservative Party of Vantier has won this year's election, ending the military dictatorship that was established during the coup.

65% of Vantierian voters voted for the Conservatives.

However, voter turnout has decreased to 55%

Typical voter turnout in Vantier is at levels of 65-70%.

This means that voter turnout has decreased by 10-15 percentage points.

This has mostly been attributed to the Social Democrats and Communists refusing to vote.

During the coup, their parties were outlawed to prevent "leftist interference", according to the military authorities.

However, it is likely that the ban will be overturned by Justine Dugas, the leader of the new Conservative government.

Despite the low voter turnout, political analysts have described this as the best victory for the Conservatives in recent years.

International organisations around the world have so far denounced the election as illegitimate (due to the fact that the Social Democrats and Communists couldn't participate) and are urging countries around the world not to recognise the new government.

THE LATEST UPDATES ON THE IMPERIAL-CORPORATE WAR

Das viertes kaiserreich recognised Vantier's claim over Puerto Rico and pledged to help Vantier evade economic restrictions caused by sanctions.

Troops from DVK won the Battle of the Pacific and landed in Hokkaido. It is reported that Zaibatsu controlled japan originally planned on launching attacks on Vantier through the Panama Canal but all of their soldiers were soon recalled when they recieved news of the German victory in the Pacific and they are now attempting to defend their homeland.

There are now unconfirmed reports that the German Luftwaffe (air force) is using mustard gas against civilian targets in a plan called the "Persia Method".

Usage of chemical weapons and targeting civilian-populated areas are both prohibited by the Hague Conventions of 1899 and 1907, as well as the Geneva Protocol of 1925.

Chinese kuomintang states (Germany's ally) said that they would not "bow before the Japanese oppressors".

Zaibatsu controlled japan pledged to resist the Germans "with everything in our arsenal" and it is likely that scientists from Japan and the Arasaka megacorporation are working around the clock to develop nuclear weapons.

PASIFIKAANER SHIPS FOUND IN NORISTARDIAN WATERS

A picture of a ship.

A few days ago, ships from Pan-Pacific States entered Noristardian waters without permission.

"The Noristardian government asks the government of Pan-Pacific States to back off," said Noristard.

"Any other instances of ships located in our waters will be shot down and raided. Yes, this is a threat."

In response, the Pan-Pacific States government replied:

"We are not aware of any of our commercial or military ships near the area.

Any ships that may be flying the RPNS Ensign or MPS flag are not ours, and may be posing as such in violation of the international law of the sea.

We will move to intercept these impostors accordingly to ensure safety in our waters.

If you capture these vessels, we request that they be extradited towards Pasifikaaner waters so they may be tried in court, though having them sunk does not bother us."

So far, the vessels have not been captured yet.

It is likely they soon will be, however.

TROBADORK OPENS EMBASSIES WITH OTHER COUNTRIES

Trobadork has started opening embassies with other countries.

"Since recently opening our diplomacy to the nations of the world, Trobadork will be constructing embassies with Potenzia and Sjevre," said Queen Amelia I of Trobadork in a speech on Monday.

"Trobadork will also extend its military aid to assists its new diplomatic partner, Potenzia, in their recent conflict."

The speech was met with applause.

Queen Amelia was then invited to the opening of the first Trobadorkian embassy in Potenzia.

NEW MONKEYPOX OUTBREAK

A monkeypox particle.

The outbreak of what was previously believed to be "Moroccan flu" has now been revealed to be a new, more contagious form of monkeypox.

Cases of monkeypox have now been detected all over Europe.

Potenzian scientists published a paper which claimed that the outbreak started in Vantier, a nation that has a reputation for having poor sanitary conditions.

In response to the Potenzian paper, Vantierian scientists published a rebuttal, in which they claimed that the outbreak actually arose as a result of Potenzian tourists taking advantage of Vantier's relaxed prostitution laws.

Then, a new theory appeared in scientific circles in the Kingdom of the Indus, which stated that the disease actually leaked from the Ampuries Institute of Virology.

After that, online conspiracy theorists started claiming that Vantier purposefully engineered an existing strain of monkeypox to make it more contagious and then released it to act as a bioweapon.

Regardless of how it started, pharmaceutical companies around the world began work on developing vaccines.

One was developed in Tuthar and 15000 vials of it were sent to Greater Rutan.

Tuthar offered to give the Rutanians equipment to create their own vaccine, but only if they ended their ongoing war with Potenzia.

Vantier rejected the Tutharians' offer to send them vaccine because they disliked the fact that they were essentially blackmailing Rutan (Vantier's ally), and decided to attempt to create their own.

So far, they have not succeeded, and monkeypox cases in Vantier have multiplied by a factor of one thousand. It is thought that even if the vaccine is developed, only the elite 1% of Vantierians will be able to afford it.

GLORY BE FERRET ANNEXES ISLANDS

Glory Be Ferret has annexed the Chatham Islands, Stewart Island, and southern New Zealand due to overcrowding concerns.

GBF has announced that all natives who currently live on the islands will be allowed to apply for citizenship, and that they will be legal owners of the land they live on.

The government of Glory Be Ferret has allocated funds to build military bases along the coasts of the new territory to house anti ballistic missile and anti aircraft systems.

It is estimated these new military projects will cost billions of dollars.

TROOPS MOBILISED ON SJEVREAN-ARMENOKURD-RUSNIAN BORDER

Troops on the Sjevre-Rusnian-Armenokurd border.

Due to a misunderstanding between the governments of Sjevre, Rusnia empire and The Armenians and the Kurds, troops were mobilised on the border of those three countries.

For a few days, over 250,000 troops were patrolling the border.

Tensions rose rapidly.

Eventually, the Sjevrean and Armenokurd governments agreed to bring most of their troops home.

Sjevre then invited the Rusnia Empire to negotiate a reduction of troops at a conference in Lelies.

The tension has now mostly defused.

Thanks again to Kingdom of the Indus for putting in the effort to write the newspaper every week! I love it.

I noticed that. I think because quotes by Filipinn are mentioned in the dispatch.
