TLA seizes power, bans Metzists, restores constitutional democracy
Following the seizure of more parts of the country and the defection of more sections of the military, the government in Petrograd has surrendered to the forces of the Trigunian Liberation Army (TLA). The TLA responded by immediately banning the main left-wing party, the Trigunian Communist Party, but agreed to leave the constitution intact and respect Trigunia's status as a constitutional democracy.
With order restored, some calm has been restored to everyday life, and the financial markets have begun to settle somewhat. However, even the most optimistic observer could not fail to note that Trigunia has been through a very rough period, and that her economy has been severely battered. Unemployment remains high, especially youth unemployment, and inflation is still in double-digit numbers. Trigunia's famous economist, Katina Lesya Yurievna, has predicted it "could easily take 5 years until Trigunia's GDP returns to its pre-recession level".
Rodshyan-Hulstrian clashes in Ekaterinoslav
Riots have broken out in the deprived outer suburbs of Ekaterinoslav, mainly between Rodshyan (OOC: Russian) and Hulstrian (OOC: Austrian) youths. There were 34 arrests, 6 people were taken to hospital and an estimated half a million rabols damage was caused to property. Local community leaders are blaming the problems on both a lack of police funding and a lack of opportunities for young people, especially in terms of finding jobs.
