Early this morning the Temanian stock market reported an all time high in the stock value of Temanian companies and the Temanian GDP is now at around 150 billion LOD, the highest it has ever been.The major cities in the Empire have seen enormous growth over the past years. With the liberal reforms of Emperor Baldassare which privatized large parts of the economy and gave for example the media the right to freely publish news the Temanian economy skyrocketted with over 8% growth during the past year. Thanks to this growth the imperial government was able to expand and modernize its armed forces.
In the last 6 years the Temanian Imperial Forces have purchased 30 new fighter jets, 200 new tanks and new infantry equipment for their soldiers. Even though the new vehicles for the army where not new models they still make a welcome addition to the Temanian Imperial Forces.
In order to try his new arsenal the Emperor had asked his generals to prepare new army drills near the Noumonde border. Why the emperor wanted the drills to take place there is unknown but the drills themselves were a great spectacle.
Tanks rolled down the grassfield rapidly followed by waves of infantry and aircover from the new fighter planes of the airforce. In total the drills took a week to complete and the Emperor was visibly happy with the peformance of his modernized army.
International observers were however concerned. The exercises took place just 10 miles from Noumonde and a sizeable force was massed at the border in order to fascilitate the drills.
While the office of the Emperor has publicly stated that Temania has no intention of invading its neighbours many in Noumonde are getting anxious by the buildup of troops at their border.
Despite this fear Temania is still growing its economy with 6% a year and its cities are expanding rapidly with new neighborhoods and shopping districts stamping out of the ground in a fast pace.
Noumonde authorities have not yet responded to the Temanian drills
