Activation of the AMSS

Merenbürg, April 4381
Today the AMSS was officially activated by our minister of defence, General Fritz von Glauer.
After 5 years of development and production, the AMSS (Advanced Maritime Security System) is finally active and will protect the coasts of the Narikatonite islands.

The system covers an area, whichs border lies around 80km from the coasts of Narikaton, Nihaton and Clenon in the northern, eastern and southern direction, on the western direction, it stretches out to about 120km from the coasts due to the estimated higher piracy around the 3rd world countries.
To pass this zone, it requires a identification device for each ship, which shipping companies or other seamen can obtain at the the Narikatonite office for maritime trade and travel or at one of the Narikatonite embassies.
Ships without an active identification device will be intercepted by one of the new Narikatonite autonomuos patrol boats.
The AMSS also consists of a satellite, which will keep the area under surveillance, a coastal missile defense system and a drone fleet.

The patrol boats are armed with a 120mm smothbore gun, anti ship and anti aire missiles guided torpedoes for submarine hunting and 30mm machinecannons for speedboat defence and can be set to four different alert stages, the first one is the safe stage, in which they will drive into hearing distance of the ship and will deliver a warning with visual signals and audia signals, they will not attack in this mode, but will contact the royal navy instead.
In the second stage, the boats will open fire after three ignored warnings and in the third stage they will open fire immediately on every ship which enters the area without permissions.
The fouth stange can only be actived during war and will cause the boats to destroy aeverything that enters the area without a warning, even if it has the identification device.

Heil! publishes Economic Manifesto

As expected, the Heil! Nationalist ticket became the second place. Not a lot of votes divide the Communist party and the neo-thallerists.
Right after the election Grünsteidl-Shukanov the chairman of Heil! has issued the first economic manifesto of the Heil! party. A typical ultra-liberal and pro-capital programe.
Political Experts call it a "traditional orthodox thallerist economic idea." with the socialist majority in parliament though, the economic plans of the nationalist cause will have to wait.
Rainer Zünder attests the missing economic growth because of the unbearable economic policies of the socialist menace and he even accuses the thallerists with red taints to be part of the economic problem.
"It looked like a silly semi-cliquey thing between a few players to me. Following around a troll called Mbites like he was some sort of god... which wouldn't have mattered so much in the scale of things, except one of them was a Mod."

THE CUB PREPARES FOR MASSIVE REFORM
Following the election victory of the Communist Union of Farmers the party has announced major economic and social reform to "rid the country of the inhumane practises of capitalism"

Secretary General Theun Ripmeester of the CUB stood in front of a crowd of hardcore communists while announcing the plans of the government.
The CUB reached a majority together with the SVP and is preparing to takeover the position of Reichskanzler. Theun Ripmeester would then become Reichskanzler. With their socialist majority the CUB aims at reforming the traditionally right leaning country.

This nation has been terrorized under right wing policy and has been driven by capitalist greed. We have to reform it. It is our responsibility as humane individuals to reform the country in a social one where no one is being harrassed for their race. Religion has only driven conflict and death and is the slave of the right. We have to make sure that all religions can be practised but will be regulated! Let us create a society worth living for while also making a strong economy possible supported by the state!


Said upcoming Reichskanzler Theun Ripmeester.
According to sources within the communist party the party is also preparing possible constitutional reform. Ripmeester also called the position of Reichskanzler a "respected position" although he would like a change in name for the position and the country overall.

"Yet Another Nationalist Wave and Secession threats"

The chairman of Heil! Nikolai-Alexander Grünsteidl-Schacht held a press conference in which he stated: "If these reforms and the disregard for our freedom as well as culture continue, then we see no other choice than secession from the Free Realm."

Political experts see that as a possibility but as an unlikely one. Narikaton may be in the firm hands of Heil! but the Thallerists never supported devolution before and we doubt that they would be content with just holding one island. Economists called it nonsensical since Narikaton on its own would probably not survive. Still, we should not underestimate the nationalist roots in the country, they're strong and deep. This could very well escalate or lead to further political tensions which are at an all-time high cosidering recent history.

Rumors also say that another almost forgotten part of the political landscape is moving again. A party with history in the federal elections and almost as old as the first monarchy. It did degenerate to a municipal party but they have recently seen a sudden rise in popularity. The FAUST (Freiheitlich Autonome Union Sozialistischer Thalleristen). Political Scientists explain it rather simply. There are many workers with nationalist sentiment but still supporting leftist economic policies. Right now, there is no party on a federal level strong enough to fulfill the needs of these workers. It does seem like the FAUST has another chance to rise in power.

CUB PROPOSES CONSTITUTIONAL REFORM AND GOVERNMENT POLICY
The government has proposed a constitutional reform bill that would drastically change the country into a people's republic

The CUB government has proposed a constitutional reform bill in parliament today that would drastically change the course of the nation. The reform titled "Communist Constitutional Reform 4389" would change the nation from a constitutional monarchy to a People'e Republic with a Thaller council. This is nearly the same system as the former socialist party in Deltaria proposed. The reform would also lower the nobility's control over society and abolish the monarchy to make place for a president. The Thaller council would also wield considerable power as a advising council to the president and parliament.

With this constitutional reform the CUB also proposed some reforms to expand the freedom of the people. While political experts say the bills to expand freedom will probably pass the constitutional reform wont. Experts believe that the CUB wont be able to gather the 2/3rd majority needed although "anything is possible these days" say the experts.

If this bill will actually pass and change the history of the nation remains unclear. Reichskanzler Ripmeester was optimistic.

We are working hard to show the benefit of this history changing reform to all party's in our parliament. We are optimistic about the results of negotiations and about the possibility of our reform passing. We are however also realistic in the believe that it might not pass.

GOVERNMENT ANNOUNCES MASSIVE INVESTMENTS AND INFRASTRUCTURAL PROGRAMS
Following a new budgetary bill the CUB government has announced several new infrastructural programs and a massive military overhaul

After the budget was proposed many members of parliament started to calculate if this would even be possible. a budget increase of 99 billion was proposed by the government in what is considered to be the biggest investment in recent history. The military will receive over 50 billion extra which is seen as the biggest investment in the military in the last 50 years.

We will use the increase in defense spending to research new technology and increase the amount of soldiers in our forces. We will also update all outdated equipment and look for ways to expand both navy and airforce


Said Reichskanzler Ripmeester

The government has also announced massive infrastructural programs after the increase of 30 billion into that sector. A new system of national highways is going to be constructed in Darnussia as well as creating a new port in Narikaton. This would further connect the major economic centers of the nation according to the government.

The healthsector will also receive over 10 billion extra which will be used to higher wages and to gradually change the healthsystem into a universal one.

Image
The government plans on buying over 40 extra new Jets. The jet they will buy can be seen above

This massive investment by the government marks a new era for the nation, with these projects it seems like the government is getting the country back on track for the first real time since the war with Malivia. Experts say however that this government intervention in the economy could also turn out to be a negative and could discourage private activity needed to stabilize the economy in the long run.

We will have to see how this turns out.

Long live Darnussia! Long live Socialism!

CUB CREATES ITS OWN PARAMILITARY
Over 20.000 CUB members have applied for membership

The CUB has created its very own military wing for the party. The Volksarmee der Nation or VN for short was created by the party because of their fear for "right wing agression" even though the CUB is a governing party they feel like it is their right to defend the party. The soldiers of the VN have to answer directly to the Secretary General of the party which currently is the Reichskanzler Theun Ripmeester.

The VN has around 21.342 applicants and is currently processing them to become offiial VN soldiers. The party has also made steps to buy equipment and vehicles for the paramilitary.

Experts say that this step of the CUB underlines the current tensions between the left and the right in the country and this could potentially increase calls for Narik independence by the Heil! party although it is still highly unlikely it will actually happen.

Heil! forms electoral Alliance

The Neo-Thallerists have formed a electoral alliance with the Militarist Monarchist Party and the Liberal-Autonomous Union of Socialist Thallerists called "One Realm" or "Ein Reich."
Thallerist voters all over the nation hope for a victory with this move. The next chancellor could very well be a thallerist which would probably increase the stability of the free realm again. Even though some FAUST politicians have stated their support for the communist constitutional reforms they have eventually decided to join Ein Reich and will probably have to discuss this political issue with their new partners. Seccessionist tendencies apparently also have been dismissed by Heil! after they had some talks with the CUB about them supporting the thaller council.
