Infinity-A3 white model (above)

New in in Thiers's Golden Valley this week, Technologie Astéria has announced the creation and release of a new mobile phone, the Infinité
Model A3 phone. Technologie Astéria has been working non stop to finally release a new phone to the public since the release of the A2 a
few years back. The release of the A3 comes after a huge financial year in terms of monetary gains for Technologie Astéria. The new A3
has a brand new battery model that is expected to last over 24 hours without charging. Also new in the A3, a new face recognition program
has been installed which scans the user's face. The face recognition program on the phone is a security measure for certain apps and information.
Technologie Astéria has claimed that the face recognition program can be used to unlock phone screens, although this technology is very new and
surprising to most, Technologie Astéria is still working to make the program better and more effective. New versions of the face recognition
program are set to be released in the next Infinity model phones. The Infinity A3 has improved cameras capable of capturing high definition
images and magnified images up to 4 times the size. The Infinity A3 has a price of 750 LFR in Lourennais stores and 850 LFR in international
stores. Multiple international markets in many nations have expressed their demand for the new Infinity A3 such as Keymon, Baltusia, Alduria,
and Kalsitan.

After long negotiations and deals, Keymon Electronics and Technologie Astéria Have reached a deal to open stores and manufacturing centers
in Keymon and Lourenne. Keymon Electronics opened their first store in the Golden valley recently and have begun to sell their products to
residents in Lourenne. Keymon Electronics are the second international company that have decided to expand to Lourenne to sell their products.
(Kalistan remains the first). Due to Lourenne's booming technology sector, Keymon Electronics stated that an expansion to Lourenne would be
vital and necessary for the company to continue to thrive. Keymon Electronics have begun to sell their Apex Model mobile phones in the Golden
Valley (Thiers Metropolitan Area). Keymon electronics is expected to make millions of dollars following their expansion to Lourenne. The Minstry
of Technology and Science stated that "all companies throughout Terra are welcomed to expand their services and production to Lourenne." The
Golden Valley is quickly becoming the greatest source in Lourenne for jobs , significantly overcoming the market Center in Valois and the
Government Complex in Eroncourt.

King Herbert and Queen Victoria have officially named their daughter Catherine D'Orléans-DeChambeau. Catherine is the Royal Couple's

of the family (Princess Louise-Marie is the first). Catherine will be the heir to the throne of Lourenne once King Herbert has died or is displaced.
The Royal Family are set to host a large celebration at the Palais des Lumieres to celebrate the birth of the Dauphine. King Herbert has communicated
with his brother Prince Henri and his sister Princess Louise-Marie about the birth of their niece. Both Louise-Marie and Henri have stated their
intents to travel to Lac des Lumieres, an Eroncourt suburb,and see the Dauphine. King Herbert will also be inviting the Royal Family of Indrala,
the family of the House of Steuart-Carmichael, and the family of the House of Rongstad. The Dauphine will live at the Palais des Lumieres until
the time of her reign. It is unknown yet if Catherine will have Kazulian or Hutorian royal titles. Lourenne has been left paralyzed by the the birth of
the Dauphine. Talk about the Dauphine is all over social media and the national news. Big metropolitan areas such as Valois, Thiers, and Eroncourt
are the cities that have been largely impacted by the 'royal craze".

Capet-Fouquet Industries to expand to Kazulia. Production and Manufacturing Prioritized

Large 110-X Model Cargo ships built by Industrie Capet-Fouquet

The Board of Directors from Capet-Fouquet Industries have managed to acquire a deal that would allow them to expand their services
and manufacturing process to Kazulia, specifically, the Kazulian coastal region of Hent. Capet-Fouquet Industries, which mainly specializes
in the production of military naval procurement (built most of Lourenne's Royal Navy), will be focusing resources and technology towards the
production and manufacturing of large, heavyweight cargo ships. Capet-Fouquet Industries has stated that they will model most cargo ships
after the 110-X cargo ships, which are mainly in use by Lourennias trade transportation. Capet-Fouquet Industries will also begin to model
new cargo ships for both Kazulian and Lourennais use. The new cargo ship is said to be" modern,slick, and revolutionary for modern day trade."
This new cargo ship is set to be a joint Kazulian-Lourennais project that will improve the speed and reliability of regional trade.

Capet-Fouquet industries will be opening three new manufacturing centers along the coast of Hent. These manufacturing centers will instantly
bring jobs to the areas where the centers will be opened. Administration centers for the Capet-Fouquet Industries are set to open in Skalm.
Kazulian citizens with a small experience in administration or accounting will be available to apply for jobs at the administration centers. The
Skalm Admin center will be in direct communication with Capet-Fouquet's headquarters located in downtown Valois. The administration centers
will oversee the production that each manufacturing center completes. Manufacturing Centers will focus on the production of brand new cargo ships
as well as the advancement of the proposed modern cargo ship.

Along with moving to Kazulia, Capet-Fouquet Industries hopes to seek a cooperation project with Kazulia in terms of naval production for both the
Kazulian and Lourennais Royal Navy. Efforts in naval production will be facilitated due to the expansion of Capet-Fouquet to Kazulia. The Board of
Directors, however, sees this a "future" objective that they hope to complete. For now, the company is focusing on a smooth expansion to Kazulia,
successfully completing the construction of administration centers and manufacturing centers, and finally the production of new,large cargo ships
as well as the modern cargo ship project.

Following the news of Capet-Fouquet's expansion to Kazulia, various Lourennais firms have been seeking the opportunity to expand to Kazulia
in order to create jobs and higher profits for their workers. The most important firm since Capet-Fouquet to begin the expansion process is
Bel Air Moteurs. Bel Air Moteurs was created by multimillionaire William Desjardins. Desjardins has successfully made Bel Air Moteurs into
a high-earning Lourennais firm since 4450. Bel Air Moteurs has become Lourenne's top automobile provider for citizens in the country. Bel
Air Moteur's headquarters are located in the Golden Valley near Theirs. Many of its manufacturing and production centers are located in
Valois due to the high number of applicants in large metropolitan areas. Desjardins has decided to expand to Kazulia to its large metropolitan
areas such as Skalm, Sognheim, and Asvald. According to Desjardins, 4 large assembly line production centers have been planned for those three
cities. (2 located in Skalm.) The 4 assembly line production centers will open hundreds of jobs to those who have experience in automobile
manufacturing and assembly line production.

Similar to Capet-Fouquet Industries, Desjardins has decided to open one administration center in Skalm to oversee operation in the 4
manufacturing assembly line production factories. With an expansion from Bel Air Moteurs, thousands of jobs will be created in Kazulia for
Kazulian citizens. Desjardins hopes to work with Kazulian firms specializing in luxury cars to begin production on a new line of luxury cars.
Bel Air Moteurs is expected to release their first line of luxury motors once the move to Kazulia is complete and fully in service without any
production issues.

Fake News spreads through Valois, Trigunia apparent source

Image
Valois (above) has been hit by a series of online fake news

Recently, a Trigunian cyber group named "Blackout" have been exposed of spreading fake news to Dorvik and here in Lourenne.
After elections in 4475, The Free Liberals claimed that they lost many seats in the Royal Assembly do to "false information
spread by anonymous sources". The election was won by the Liberal-Green coalition over the Free Liberals. Fake News from
Trigunia was spotted in the financial district in downtown Valois. The news was found in an online forum magazine called:
Le Pain Quotidien. The forum was reported to the Valois Police Department were several calls were made to the
government complex in Eroncourt. Eroncourt received the online magazine and directly traced it to a group of unknown
servers in Trigunia. Shortly after the forum was traced to Trigunian servers, The Voice, a Trigunian news firm, revealed that
it was indeed a group of Trigunians who spread the Fake News throughout Lourenne. The Ministry of internal Affairs called
for a complete interface change for all government computers and systems. The Police Department of Valois asks all residents
in Valois to report any more Fake News online to the police.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is still expected to act upon this issue. The ministry is not expected to take any significant action
against the attacks. However, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will be communicating with fellow members of the Northern Council
to work on measures to prevent Fake News and Foreign intervention in national sources. The only comment that the Ministry of
Foreign Affairs gave is that Trigunia "is a threat to our elections and have taken advantage of our progressive press and media laws
to spread their anti-Northern Council rhetoric. The Northern Council is not a threat to stability in the North. It is Trigunia that
threatens peace and democracy in the north."

Lourenne set to withdraw from the Northern Council

Image
The Royal Assembly quickly voted to leave the Alliance Monday morning

To the surprise of millions of Lourennians, the Royal Assembly has decided to leave the Northern Council Alliance (NOCTO) Monday morning after the crown representative to King Herbert stated that "Lourenne can no longer benefit or contribute to an internally, unstructured organization." After a discussion with the Crown Representative, leaders of the Royalist Party set up a proposal in the Royal Assembly to formally withdraw from the Northern Council. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs had nothing to say on the quite surprising move from the legislature. Officials say that the Ministry spoke with Crown Representative Germaine hours before she made her statement. To this hour, at least 113 of all 200 Deputies have voted 'Yes' on the withdrawal proposal. Lourenne is more than set to leave the Treaty within the next month. The Royalist Party leader, Beto Vapocatepl stated that "although Lourenne is set to leave the Northern Council, its strong ties with Hutori and Kazulia are not dismissed or forgotten".

Akna Secnatiel to run for Crown Representative Vicereine, declares the beginning of Orinco movement

Image
Secnatiel hopes to bring an Orinco majority to the Royal Assembly through the Royalist Party

The Royalist Party became the only party in the Royal Assembly last month after the Free Liberals and the Left/Greens dissolved from Lourennais politics. The Royalist Party has begun a major shift if ideology and leadership as the Liberal-Green coalition has come to an end. The Royalist Party will supposedly move "closer to the right" as the party begins reform. Currently, the Royalist Party has socialist values as a result of the coalition with the Left/Greens. The projected reform will place the Royalist Party as moderate liberals with certain conservative views pertaining to the nation's constitution. The Royalist Party will be focusing on economics, military reform, environmental science, and education. A change in ideology means a change in party leadership as well as the Crown Representative spot. Noelle Germaine, the current Vicereine, is set to run against ex-lawyer and current deputy in the Royal Assembly, Akna Secnatiel. Secnatiel spoke to large crowds of supporters in Eroncourt, Montmorency, and Coruma to gain support for the next federal elections. Secnatiel spoke out to all Orinco legislative candidates for the Royal Assembly to "fight for Orinco representation and rights in Lourenne". Polls have shown that current Vicereine Germaine is leading by 4 points, however, Secnatiel is set to campaign in Valois, where she is expected to become increasingly popular. Since her public appearance in Eroncourt, many Orinco-Lourennians have been praising Secnatiel's words about the incoming "Great Orinco Movement".

Princess Léna weds Indralan fashion designer in extravagant Eroncourt wedding
13 July 4484

ERONCOURT, Joviant: Her Royal Highness Princess Léna has wed prominent Indralan fashion designer Guanchen Liu in an extravagant Aurorian wedding. Under crisp blue skies, about 1,000 well-wishers turned out at the Eglise des Fleurs to catch a glimpse of the couple on their wedding day.

In attendance was the Princess's maternal relatives, King Herbert and Queen Victoria as well as Prince Henri and his spouse, Princess Ruth. Also in attendance was Princess Léna's brother, Prince Louis and their mother, Princess Louise-Marie; the Princess's father Prince Huachen of Indrala had passed of a sudden heart-attack at the age of 60 in 4480. Princess Léna received permission to marry Mr. Liu from her uncle, the Indralan Emperor, three days after the proposal as is the custom in her paternal family.

Princess Léna wore an open-backed white gown designed by her husband, along with a complementary diamond tiara and necklace gifted to her by the Indralan Emperor. The Princess held a small bouquet composed of peonies and amaryllises, a nod to the national flowers of Indrala and Lourenne respectively. The couple were seen breaking into a broad smile often during the ceremony, their hands trembling as they placed wedding bands on one another.

The couple are expected to live between Mr. Liu's apartment in Kaizhou, Indrala, and the Princess's residences in Eroncourt and Jugang, Indrala.
