Keymon Defense Force Makes First of Three Purchases of Military Equipment

February 4487-As several Vanukuean and Lourennais ships sailed into the harbor at Turtle Bay, several hundred gathered to witness the equipment being unloaded.

The men aboard the ships began moving the equipment into several hundred trucks the Keymon Defense Forces had brought. The equipment shocked yet also impressed many Keymonites.

The KDF has made purchases of [url]military equipment[/url] from Lourenne and Vanuku. These purchases were agreed to be made in 3 shipments in 6 months intervals. They also agreed to make 3 payments every time a shipment is delivered.

This first shipment included:The Mossberg 500 Shotgun, The FN SCAR, The Colt Canada C7 Rifle,and The FIM-92 Stinger

The Ministry of Defense stated that this first shipment of weaponry cost the Ministry around 20 million KED. The reason for this, according to the Ministry, was that the shipment held 10 thousand of each of weapon so that the Ministry could reverse engineer the equipment and build it themselves at a cheaper price.

Some have stated they are skeptical of the idea. The Keymon Arms Manufacturing Union released a press statement concerning the purchase-
There are many independent arms manufacturers in Keymon open to selling to the government. Yet it relies on foreign powers for foreign designs to use. Those designs cannot compete with Keymon ingenuity.


However the Ministry of Defense has responded to those criticisms by pointing out it is working with the Keymon Armory Corporation to build a new tank design for the army, which is expected to be revealed in the next 2-3 years.

Other critiques have criticized the administrations attempts to expand the armed forces. Many members of the Senate who are opposed to this action have stated that this violates the Keymon Neutrality Acts while other Senators claim it is in compliance with the rules of the Keymon Neutrality Acts.

The main backer of this expansion has been Julius Anastos, who has recently begun to focus more and more attention on politics. He has mainly proclaimed that the increase in military is necessary for the continued economic prosperity of Keymon.

Keymon Places Sanctions On Dankuk

May 4487-The Senate has begun to implement a series of sanctions against Dankuk due to the recent elections resulting in a absolute monarchy party being elected.

The party has begun the process of the end of Dankuk democracy and have begun to establish a “monarchy”. Some people have compared the new government to a dictatorship rather than a monarchy.

This has sparked several Keymonites into action including Julius Anastos, who ordered that all Anastos Corporation assets in Dankuk be shut down. He has also protested the destruction of Democratic Memorial Park and So Yoko JiyuWorld Amusement Park, both of which were built during the Democratic Dankuk age. Julius Anastos has also been the most vocal advocate for sanctions against Dankuk.

The Senate has voted yes to a series of sanctions that would make all exports to Dankuk illegal and would make it illegal for Dankuk ships to dock at Keymon ports.

The Senate voted 59 for-40 against-1 abstaining.

The Keymon Defense Forces (K.D.F) have already turned back a Dankuk ship looking to dock at the Port of Turtle Bay. The ship was turned away with no trouble. Alongside this, the K.D.F have grounded all export flights to Dankuk.

This decisions has sparked criticism and praise from several individuals and groups. Julius Anastos called it a-“successful strike against tyranny and dictatorship”. Former Party Finance Minister, Socrates Boosalis called the move a-“Step closer to economic collapse and debt that the state cannot handle”.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs however has offered Dankuk a ultimatum:
Dear government of Dankuk,

We’ve begun a sanction against Dankuk and we will continue to uphold it unless this one demands is met:
Create a democratic legislator so that the people may share the power with the executive and judicial branches.

We do not request you abandon a monarchy. We simply ask that the monarch not maintain absolute power and that the people have some voice in the government.

Sincerely
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Ministry of Infrastructure Announces Joint Construction of Nuclear Power Plant, In Collaboration with Vanuku

May 4490-The Keymon Ministry of Infrastructure has announced a joint initiative with the Vanukuean Ministry of Infrastructure to begin construction of a nuclear power plant near Turtle Bay.

The estimated cost for taxpayers will be around 9 billion dollars KED.

Nuclear Power Plant

The Keymon Minister of Infrastructure announced the program at the annual Infrastructure and Construction Conference.

Minister of Infrastructure Telegonus Hondros made the announcement in front of the ICC to roaring applause:
I have the great pleasure to announce one of the greatest opportunities The Republic of Keymon has ever seen. I’ve recently left negotiations with the Vanukuean Minister of Infrastructure and we’ve come to a common agreeement. Both the Keymon and Vanukuean Ministries of Infrastructure will begin construction of a nuclear power plant around 50 miles away from Turtle Bay. This one nuclear power plant can produce around 20% of the energy needs of the city. With time, the entire nation will become independent of fossil fuels.

However we shall have to pay for the construction of this nuclear power plant. The estimated price of construction will be 9 billion KED. Now, I understand that is a lot, however we can raise that much and then some to finally become completely independent of fossil fuels.


This announcement has been met with both criticism and praise. Some members of the Green Libertarian faction of the KLF has condemned the move as a “destruction of the environment that is no worse nor better than fossil fuels”. However some members of both the Green Libertarian and Militaristic Libertarian factions have praised the move as the best for Keymon.

This move has seen major praise from the general populous of Keymon, however some have demanded the government have a plan if the nuclear power plant were to go into meltdown.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs has responded to these requests by issuing a pamphlet concerning nuclear meltdowns and the possible evacuation routes from it. They also stated they would begin assembling a group of radiological experts and a unit of men willing to clean up radioactive waste if it were ever meltdown.

The construction is planned to begin in 4491 and the plant is estimated to be finished in 4495.

Anatos Corporation Announces The KE Apex III

October, 4491-In a shocking turn of events, the Anastos Corporation has decided to revive the KE Apex phone series and release a brands new phone model, the KE Apex III.

This announcement is shocking due to the fact that the Anastos Corporation scrapped the KE Apex phone development program and instead focused on building technology for its casinos.

This sudden change has sparked the curiosity of many members of the public. The Anastos Corporation has failed to give a reason as to why they’ve decided to suddenly change. Due to this, conspiracy theories have arisen in response. One theory claims that Technologie Astéria from Lourenne, one of the biggest rivals of the Anastos Corporation,in the tech business, is planning on releasing a new phone model.

Another conspiracy is that the Anastos Corporation is running out of cash and needs to create another series of cash making gadgets.

However the Anastos Corporation has released a press statement about the new smartphone, however this statement is mainly concerned about the abilities of the new phone rather than the reasons for its creation:
The new KE Apex III shall be the most advanced phone of the KE Apex series.
The KE Apex III has a storage capacity of 10 GB, a glorious display ,and 2k video and photo.

The phone shall be the most advanced we’ve ever created and will be only 650 KED. We promise the public the best technology possible and we deliver.
