Porte Orléans, Louives: After years of constructions, delays, and breakthroughs, the telecommunications orbiter and
the entry-decent landing system for the HERMES Space Station have been completed. The new systems jointly built
between the Lourenais Space and Aerospace Agency (Agence del'Espace et de l'Aérospatiale Lourennais - AEAL) and
Manon-Maison Communications were successfully tested at the AEAL's headquarters on the coast of Louives, not far
from the city of Porte Orléans. The telecommunications orbiter is ready to be successfully joined with the other
projects being built by other countries of the Arcadia Programme. The systems built by the AEAL have been designed
to successfully hold against the fiery effects of entry and exit from the atmosphere. The parts for the HERMES module
will be shipped straight to Kazulia in the next week where they will be added to finalize the module.

Aguatepec,Luçande: Several members of the Civil Rights Council Organization and the Cultural Protection association
held a meeting in Aguatepec,Luçande to form a new international organization that will focus on the development

The OIAH has been structured into three parts: Economic Aid, Developmental Aid, and Disaster Aid. The OIAH will
provide temporary economic relief to countries who are desperately in need of support for their people. Develop-
ment aid will also be provided by the OIAH for the construction of humane refugee camps, schools, and human
healthcare centers throughout Terra. Disaster Aid will be provided to countries who have suffered extreme losses
from a natural disaster or event. The OIAH will have large groups of volunteers and organization workers to deploy
to nations in need. The creation of the Lourennais Organization will help to create a more safe, helpful, and
caring Terra.

Meeting the new Minister of Defense
February, 4550
Image
Parmentier, Outannais:

The formation of Action Lourennais was relatively low-key. Several members of the National Royalist Party broke away from the party seeking a more right-wing focus for Lourenne, dedicated to the monarchy but having a more prominent and important role in military foreign affairs and focusing on cracking down on domestic affairs that they believe have been unnoticed. Amand Le Sueur, the new Secretary-General of Action Lourennais, was announced as the new Minister of National Defense shortly after the party's foundation in December, 4549. Le Sueur, who served as an officer in the Lourennian Army and served as a Deputy Minister of Defense has sought to take Lourenne to the next level when it comes to its defense structure and organization of the Lourennian Armed Forces. One of the first actions was the promotion of several brand new officers to the newly created National Defense Staff (État-major de la défense nationale) which will act as the general staff of the new look armed forces.

The new Minister of National Defense also announced a massive recruitment drive, by the end of the year he hopes to add another 250,000 full-time professional soldiers and by the end of next year another 250,000 full-time professional soldiers bringing the total to nearly 750,000 full-time professional soldiers. Le Sueur has appointed Deputy Minister of Defense Cécile Moitessier as the new Director-General of Recruitment, responsible for the newly created Directorate General of Recruitment (Direction Générale du Recrutement). A cadre of new officers, non-commissioned officers and enlisted personnel will scour the country to recruit the required amount of soldiers, sailors and airmen.

Admiral Didier Boissonade, the head of naval operations for the Lourennian Naval Component, will become the first Chief of the National Defense Staff. Admiral Boissonade will be the highest ranking officer within the Lourennian Armed Forces, despite line rank. In a joint statement Admiral Boissonande and Minister of Defense Le Sueur announced a totally new organizational structure for the Lourennian Armed Forces. The LAF will be comprised of the Lourennian Ground Forces (Forces terrestres lourennais), the Lourennian Air Forces (Forces aériennes lourennais) and the Lourennian Naval Forces (Forces navales lourennais). Each will be headed by a Chief of Staff who will be appointed by the reigning monarch. In this joint announcement the first Chiefs of Staff of each of the branch will be: Jean-General Christophe Gouin (Ground Forces), General Timothée Chaney (Air Forces) and Admiral Djeferson Laurent (Naval Forces) and will serve at the behest of His Majesty, the Minister of Defense and the Chief of the National Defense Staff.

A more comprehensive review and upgrade of the armed forces will likely be underway in the coming weeks. Lourenne is really taking to their Global Power status. That is for certain.

Newly Renovated Avienne Resort in Avienne-les-Baines, Outannais
Image
Avienne-les-Baines, Outannais: After years of success in Dovani, Seleya, Majatra, and in Macon, Avienne Waters and
Resorts have announced a major expansion that will include every continent on Terra, including eastern and southern
Dovani. The expansion announced by the board of international market relations is set to begin in 4551 with primary
expansions to: Keymon, Cildania, Endralon, Luthori, and Valruzia. The secondary expansion will be a renovation of
resorts in Kazulia, Indrala, Rildanor, and Egelion. The most important factor the the major Avienne expansion is the
addition of new drinks, skin care products, and merchandise to the item catalog this spring.

The expansion to south and east Dovani will begin in Ostland. Major hot showers, relaxing spas, and skin care salons
will be built throughout Ostland and its regional neighbors. The construction of these relatively medium-sized locations
will begin in the spring and summer of 4553. In more domestic Avienne-News, Avienne will be renovating each cafe
and water location located in Lourenne. Most of these locations are situated in Lourenne's busiest airports and largest
cities such as Valois,Thiers, Meridia, Parmentier, and Eroncourt. The large expansion initiated by Avienne will add over
5,000 jobs internationally, greatly boosting Avienne's profit and overall exports. The job market in Lourenne's urban
areas is set to increase following the start of Avienne's domestic improvements.

Ministry of National Defense unveils ambitious naval expansion
March, 4550
Image
Parmentier, Outannais:

Minister of National Defense Amand Le Sueur, in his second month of being Minister of National Defense announced an ambitious program to expand the Lourennian Navy, officially known as the Lourennian Naval Forces. Minister Le Sueur was joined by Chief of the National Defense Staff Admiral Didier Boissonade and Chief of Staff of the Lourennian Naval Forces Admiral Djeferson Laurent at a conference to embark on a multi-billion franc expansion on the Lourennian Navy. One of the primary focuses was the completion of the second Queen Isabelle-class aircraft carrier, to be named the King Phillipe, after the current reigning monarch. The project was in development since 4546 but has faced a series of delays, with permission from the Royal Assembly, the Minister of National Defense cleared several hurdles and the King Phillipe will be prepared one year earlier and should be ready for service in February, 4551.

Chief of Staff of the Lourennian Navy Admiral Laurent announced that the Lourennian Navy will be broken down into three primary "fleets", the first being the Rapid Intervention Squadron (Escadron d'intervention rapide) which will be lead by the flagship LVN Queen Isabelle, and will be the primary blue-water fleet of the Lourennian Navy. The second will be the Naval Action Squadron (Escadron d'Action Naval) which will be responsible for more long-term intervention uses and will be lead by the King Phillipe when it completes earlier next year. The final fleet will be the Emergency Support Squadron (Escadron de soutien d'urgence) which will be a reserve fleet primarily guarding the coastal areas of Lourenne and providing search and rescue assistance when necessary.

While the focus was on the deployment and completion of the Queen Isabelle-class aircraft carrier, the Lourennian Navy unveiled two brand new classes of submarines. The newly announced Triumphant-class ballistic missile submarine will provide the Lourennian Navy with a capable sub-marine force and it will be joined by the Rubis-class nuclear attack submarine which will further bolster the submarine force of the Lourennian Navy. Both of these projects have been in development for several years but were previously classified, it is likely that they will be deployed in five to six years time, given the long development process for the submarines, it is expected that following the initial submarine, projects will range from two to four years in construction time. Currently 6 are on order of the Triumphant-class and 12 are on order for the Rubis-class and those will be completed within three to six years. By 4556 the submarine force of Lourenne will be a force to be reckoned with.

One of the most recent developments was the creation of the Lourenne multi-purpose frigate, known as the Maubagne-class frigate. Created by Lourenne Naval Systems (Systèmes navals lourennais), a company founded several years ago to develop a multi-mission frigate and working closely with Capet-Fouquet Industries who have somewhat of a dominance in the Lourennian naval industry. The Maubagne-class frigate will enter service in roughly three years, roughly 4553 and will be created with 10 ships to be delivered over a five year period.

Lourenne Naval Systems will also provide some single-type ships such as fleet tenders and intelligence ships. One of them is the development of the Endurance-class replenishment ship, the Clerciennes-class missile range instrument ship and the Valentou-class intelligence ship. These ships will likely take several years to complete. While this ambitious project is likely to cost the Ministry of National Defense a pretty franc, it is backed by numerous government and financial industries. In partnership with Capet-Fouquet Industries, the Lourenne Naval Systems has announced joint projects on several new ships, including the Thiers-class amphibious assault ships, Parmentier-class frigate and the Delaune-class frigates.

Primary Lourennian fleet set to sea
April, 4550
Image
Parmentier, Outannais:

The recently renamed Rapid Intervention Squadron (Escadron d'intervention rapide), the primary fleet of the Lourennian Naval Forces has formally been set out for blue-water operations as a unified combat unit. The flagship of the the Rapid Intervention Fleet is currently the sole aircraft carrier of the Lourennian Navy, the LVN Queen Isabelle, the primary ship of its class. Aboard the are state of the art Dimont Rafale M fighters, electronic warfare capable planes and supported by a fleet of tenders, other anti-surface and anti-submarine ships as well as notable anti-air forces. The blue-water operation will be a first for Vice-Amiral d'escadre (Vice Admiral) Théodore Auger who was announced as the replacement for out-going Vice Admiral Gwenaël Rouzet underneath the new Ministry of National Defense regime. Vice Admiral Auger was notably happy to be selected for the position as commanding officer and believes that Lourenne can be a positive force for good throughout the world.

The Rapid Intervention Squadron was traverse Dovani, where it will sail to the Sea of Carina at the heart of Dovani, it will temporarily base in Ostland for refueling and conduct several live fire exercises with the Ostland Navy. From there is will sail around the northern portion of Dovani and temporarily dock in Kazulia where it will again conduct live fire exercises alongside the Kazulian Navy and Vice Admiral Auger will meet with Kazulian defense staff, at the same time that Minister of National Defense Amand Le Sueur will be arriving in Kazulia for a meeting to discuss regional cooperation and fostering closer defense ties and potentially discussing regional integration. The Rapid Intervention Squadron will conduct freedom of navigation past Makon and Keris, and finally returned for a further freedom of navigation through the Aldegarian Canal, which remains a heavily apolitical canal in the world.

This blue-water action is not only a message to opponents but is a message to those on the home front that the Armed Forces of Lourenne are prepared to do better for the world.

Minister of Trade and Industry visits Pontesi
April, 4550
Image
Sylvain Leclair, the newly minted Minister of Trade and Industry, focusing almost exclusively on Lourenne's foreign economic efforts, announced earlier in the month that he was visiting the nation of Pontesi in April, 4550. Minister Leclair stated that the trip, which occurred in the first week of April, was fruitful and after meeting with incoming Chairman of the Council of Magisters Hayk Valerian Gorinius, Minister of Finance Prince Tigranes Gushar and Minister of Trade and Industry Prince Gagik Kocharyan the two nations are looking to continue to build relations; notably in the area of trade and finance. Lourenne has been continually looking for more and more partners in its ever expanding economic quest for market dominance in which it competes primarily with TSC ally Vanuku and archenemy Deltaria, which has focused more on military over expansion rather than economic influence. Luckily for Lourenne, the former Northern Council state maintains numerous economic allies and the boosts done by the Northern Council have helped immensely.

Leclair was joined by a bevy of Lourennian industrialist, businessmen and financiers, namely members of the Bank of the West (Banque de l'Ouest) a development-focused bank that serves as a part of the Aurilimar Group, which is lead by the Count of Aurilimar, Aurélien d'Aurilimar one of the most notable financier families in Lourennian history. Others include manufacturing and production-based industries that are seeking to open overseas areas to reduce manufacturing costs and expand their industries into other markets. Lourenne has sought to expand its economic influence to Majatran markets and Pontesi might provide the chance for the booming industrial markets in Lourenne to sell their products overseas. While it is unlikely that Lourenne and Pontesi will settle any sort of formal alliances or increase any military cooperation, Lourenne will likely find itself a consumer rich market in Pontesi as the nation seeks to recapture some of its former glory.

At sea missile defense conducted off the coast of Lourenne
July, 4550
Image
Parmentier, Outannais:

The Naval Action Squadron joined by the Emergency Support Squadron were part of a rapid response exercise focused around the anti-missile defense capabilities of the the 6 Parmentier-class frigate that are a part of the Naval Action Squadron. The Parmentier-class frigate is capable of shooting down several types of missiles, namely cruise missiles, that might provide danger to the coastal cities of Lourenne in the event of any sort of invasion. While Lourenne is a relatively safe distance away from its enemies in the Coalition of Revolutionary Socialist States, Minister of National Defense Amand Le Sueur who announced that the snap drills were taking place, noted that Lourenne must be prepared for any threats, including those that might not reveal itself yet. The Rapid Intervention Squadron is expected to return from its freedom of navigation by September, 4550 and will likely be in port for several months before being set out to sea again for further blue-water operations. The missile defense system that is aboard many Lourennian Navy ships is known as PAAMS, the Principal Anti Air Missile System which was developed jointly by the Artanian Defense Group and Defense Electronics, now apart of Lourennian Defense Systems, recently acquired by Artanian Defense Group. PAAMS is a state of the art missile defense system that is capable of tracking multiple targets, some defense experts claim it is vastly superior to the AEGIS system developed by Zardugal, Vanuku and Hutori and used by several countries.

While the Naval Action Squadron and the Emergency Support Squadron was conducting missile defense off of the coast of Lourenne, the Lourennian Army was conducting exercises for the 1st Rapid Response Brigade (1ère brigade d'intervention rapide) which consists of mostly airborne forces which includes: 15th Parachutist Infantry Regiment (15e régiment d'infanterie de parachutistes), 11th Parachutist Armored Regiment (11ème régiment blindé de parachutistes), 1st Parachutist Regiment (1er régiment de parachutistes), 2nd Parachutist Regiment (2e régiment de parachutistes), 7th Parachutist Marine Infantry Regiment (7e régiment d'infanterie de marine parachutiste) and 3rd Parachutist Mountain Regiment (3ème régiment de montagne parachutiste). It is the first brigade of the newly renovated Lourennian Armed Forces and it is likely that it will continue to build. The 1st Rapid Response Brigade is likely to be one of the primary combat units in the future of Lourennian combat operations. The brigade conducted exercise in the eastern portion of Lourenne, focusing mainly on logistical and support operations and building defensive structures in an enemy combat zone. OPFOR was handled by elements of the Directorate-General of Military Intelligence, reporters were closed off from attending the event though some images and limited information was shared with local reporters and National Defense. Minister of National Defense Armand Le Sueur was on site for the exercises.
