BREAKING NEWS:Zoltar Petros Arrested For Corruption, Signs Deal With Prosecution

January 27th,4482-Zoltar Petros has just been arrested for corruption and has plead guilt in exchange for a plea deal.

He was arrested around the 20th and has since plead guilt to 10 counts of corruption. Normally that would land you in prison for 50 years however he successfully negotiated a plea deal, where he would give prosecutors information on all corrupt politicians he knew and in exchange, he would only 10 years in prison.

A subpoena has been ordered for 20 different senators, 80 local city legislators, and for Minister of Foreign Affairs, Talia Alexopoulou.

Alongside these subpoenas, the Ministry of Justice has raided all of the offices of said accused officials and have taken all documents relating to the case.

The Corruption Committee announced earlier today that 10 of the local city legislators subpoenaed to attend have already left the country and fled. This has led them to order that all individuals who’ve been subpoenaed are banned from leaving the country.

All subpoenaed persons are currently being interrogated by police.

Talia Alexopoulou Takes Plea Deal, Admits to 21 Charges of Corruption

Febuary 17th,4482-Current Foreign Minister Talia Alexopoulou has agreed to plead guilty to 21 charges of corruption and testify against several senators and city legislators who took bribes and illegal donations, in exchange for a lighter sentence for herself.

The trial was televised live and began around 9 A.M. Mrs. Alexopoulou was brought in front of the judge from her cell and she took the oath of honesty.

When she was asked for her plea, she pleaded guilty. The judge however did not dismiss the case as he was informed of the plea deal and its implications.

She was ordered to take the stand and tell the court the names of those she had personally bribes or the names of those she knew where personally responsible for bribery.

After her testimony, she was given a sentence of 15 years in prison, with the possibility of parole after serving 10 years, for her crimes and was taken to Goldengate Correctional Center in Turtle Bay to serve her sentence.

Immediately after her testimony, the houses of all the named people were raided and the individuals were arrested.

The foreign minister position has been left vacant as well as the finance minister position. These positions are set to be replaced by allies of Nerita Apostolou.

Some political scientists are calling this the “greatest oppression of opposition in history”. One political expert from Turtle Bay said:
If these charges are real, then the faction supporting Nerita Apostolou has used real evidence to convict there opponents and take control of the NCP.

If these charges are fake, then the faction supporting Nerita Apostolou has deceived police and investigators expertly.

Either way, Nerita Apostolou has successfully eliminated her main competition for her political view of Keymon in the future.


The arrest and prosecution of Talia Alexopoulou has resulted in her losing almost all of her support within the party, both with the elite of the party and the common people.

However some people continue to support Talia Alexopoulou regardless of her crimes and they’ve organized a protest in front of the presidential palace. The protests is currently being attended by around 500 people.

Nerita Apostolou Changes Name of NCP to the Keymon Libertarian Front

May 4482-President of Keymon and President of the New Conservative Party Nerita Apostolou has made a monumental announcement.

She began the announcement at the annual party conference, where all members of the party could request information and question the administration.

My fellow members, I have an announcement for you all.

As many of you know, we’ve recently sent out a major poll to see the opinions of all Keymonites within the party.

These polls have shown that the political perspectives of the party is not the same as the last time we polled, around 20 years ago.

Due to this, we’ve decided to rename the party. It shall now be called the Keymon Libertarian Front to match the political beliefs of a majority of our members and followers.

Now I understand this is a large change. It’s been over 65 years since our party has been founded and it has never changed the name of the party.

However we must change the name to reflect the changes in our politics and our party.

Thank you

Obsidian Oasis Casino Profits Sky High, According to the Anastos Corporation

October 4483-The Obsidian Oasis Casino’s profits are reportedly upwards of 500 million KED this year, according to the Anastos Corporation.

The Obsidian Oasis Casino has been operational for around 3 years now and it has now begun to pull in serious profits.

Image

The casino had only pulled in around 50 million KED combined for the past 2 years. This was mainly due to the continued price of renovations and security as well as the significant deficit of tourists after Keymon left the Northern Council.

However the recent Diplomatic Recognition of the Isle of Sutton as a Crown Dependency of the Commonwealth of Hutori has increased tourist visitation between Hutori and Keymon. Hutorians are one of the highest represented tourist demographics that go to Leighstown.

The casino has also seen a major increase in profits due to local governments law changing especially concerning the selling of alcohol to foreigners.

Originally the law stated that foreigners could only consume alcohol with a maximum content of 7%. However the law has now legally allowed foreigners to legally consume any alcoholic beverage.

Now the alcoholic beverages count for 35% of the profits of the casino compared to only 5% 2 years ago.

Military “Lacking Basic Equipment”, Says Biting New Report

May 4484-A recent report from the military magazine Defense News has shown the terrible state the Keymon militaries equipment is in.

The report states that-
The Keymon Defense Force, especially the Keymon Army, suffers from a lack of equipment. Only 50% of all soldiers receive an adequate amount of equipment. Those soldiers who do receive equipment are receiving equipment from 20-30 years ago. That equipment is now outdated and yet soldiers still fight with it.

We interviewed several soldiers concerning the supply issues and the most common answer was that the soldiers are not getting enough equipment because the military simply lacks it.


This biting report has triggered reactions from all over the political spectrum. Some members of the K.L.F have argued for the shrinking of the military and other members have argued for an increase in military spending, while other members of the K.L.F have even argued for the complete dissolution of the armed forces.

However the Ministry of Defense has denied all three of the above suggestions. The Ministry of Defense also released a press statement about the report from the Defense News:
We will not lie, the Keymon Military is not doing well concerning equipment supplies. This is due to the Foreign Ministries recent decision to remove themselves from the Northern Council and this has led to major equipment deficits.

We only have 1 ally to rely on for supply-Lourenne and they do not have enough supplies to assist us. We cannot rely on them for supply nor can we rely on our domestic arms shippers. We’ll simply have to find a new way to solve this.


The Ministry of Defense has refused continued comments.

Ministry of Defense Begins Rearmament Program, Focusing on Modernizing and Acquiring Equipment

June 4485-The Ministry of Defense, after the release of a report stating that the Ministry couldn’t supply its troops, has announced that it will begin a rearmament program focused on both acquiring and modernizing equipment.

The Ministry of Defense made a press release about this rearmament program, read by the Minister of Defense:
Due to recent reports of failure of this Ministry to maintain equipment for its military personnel, we’ve decided to both modernize and acquire new equipment from our allies.

This program will last around 5 years and will cost the Ministry around 10 billion KED to complete. The main goal of the program is to modernize and increase the amount of equipment we shall receive every year. Our military personnel deserve the best equipment.

To achieve all around success in the military, we’ve decided to expand and modernize the equipment in all branches of the military.

The Air Force shall receive new fighter jets. The Army shall receive new small arms, artillery, and more. The Navy shall receive new patrol craft. The National Endarme shall receive new and improved riot gear and weaponry. The SSG shall receive top of the line training and equipment. All military personnel shall be touched by this action.


Outside inspectors have been suspicious of these promises. One stated:
A press release is not action. They can spew whatever bullshit they want, but if they don’t take the action to do it, the talk is worthless.


Other observers have praised the Ministry of Defense for listening to criticism and adapting to it. One Keymon resident stated:
It’s good to know that at least the military cares about what the public thinks and what happens to the troops.


Some outside observers see this as a political move by the KLF to gain votes. One political analyst stated:
If you want the military vote, you give them more money. It’s simple logic. If you give them more money to benefit with, then they’ll vote for you.


We shall continue to update you

Anastos Corporation Pulls Out of Dankuk, Threatens to Lobby For Embargo on Monarchy

August 4486-With the recent accession of a monarchist party in Dankuk ending the Dankuk Democratic experiment, the Anastos Corporations Joint-CEO’s and Owners Marcus and Julius Anastos (Both members of the KLF and well known anti-monarchists) have withdrawn all Anastos Corporation assets from Dankuk.

According to a press release made by the company, the main reason for this was a “punishment” for the people for electing a dictatorship:
People have requested knowledge on why we decided to remove all assets from Dankuk. The main reason is a punishment to the people. They elected a dictatorship, they won’t get our products. They can suffer for there failure to respect democracy. They instead insist upon living in the past. So we shall let them live in the past.

We will remove the 10 phone stores that we maintained in Dankuk. Alongside this, all phone service provided by the Anastos Corporation will be removed. All telecommunication technology that we gave to the Dankukian people shall be deactivated.

We invite all Dankukian residents who do not wish for a dictatorship to move to Keymon. We shall personally transport you to Keymon. Go to either Liffanes Port or Seongtaek Port. We’ve already reached an agreement with the Keymonite government to classify you as refugees and therefore, you receive preferential treatment to other immigrants when it comes to border checks and entering the country.

To the government of Dankuk, a dictatorship elected democratically is not democratic. The idea that an all powerful monarch can make decisions for everyone is moronic and the common people’s voices can be easily ignored. You oppress the people with a military and a police force you control.

We’ve closely monitored your actions and the actions of fellow monarchical parties. You impose restrictions concerning speech about the royal family and make any criticism of them or there position punishable by imprisonment or death. Your laws glorify people who don’t deserve to be glorified and those people wishing to better the state are killed in an attempt to keep your grip on power.

You’d rather cut all ties to Indrala rather than work together and cooperate. Instead of working towards a common goal and a better future, you wish to retreat back to the dark ages.

You are despicable and we hope you choke to death on the power you’ve gained.

Insincerely,
The Anastos Corporation


The Senate has been split on whether to support or deny the embargo bill that’s been proposed by the Anastos Corporation. A majority of senators from Golden Coast and Jamestown support the measure while only half in Leighstown and Turtle Bay support the measure. The bill is still in debate and will be put into the voting process within 2-3 months.

The Anastos Corporation is apparently purchasing tourist ships to transport the refugees leaving Dankuk. They’ve stated they’ve purchased around 150 transport ships however more ships may be purchased.

The withdrawn assets also include the recently announced casino that would’ve began construction next year. It is set to be torn down.
