Chaos Unfolds
 
June 25th, 1423 - 5:30 AM - The DII office in Pinilaca, Pestalpa.
Pincalo hadn't gotten much sleep, as he had been driven from Ryxenia to Pinilaca in about an hour, more specifically to the DII office were he had spent so much time in the past, it was still closed, but knowing the guards he was able to get in early in the morning, instead of heading to the office spaces like he would usually do, he quickly went to the the files storage, then the archive, hurridly grabbing papers from both, since the DII office in pestalpa was an old building he knew security cameras hadn't been installed in the building yet, so after he got what he wanted, he went back to his car and took off, taking his time to call Andreís.
 
After grabbing his phone and starting the call, Andreís would pick up.
"Hello?"
"Andreís, did you tell everybody?"
"For the most part, Vachas didn't answer, i called him 3 times!" Says Andreís in a higher tone.
"I think he was busy doing stuff in the police dept. we'll call him later"
"Alright, and what is the plan now?"
"To be honest, i don't know, hopefully i can meet you somewhere in Tsala'ipá if you would be nice enough to start driving."
"Alright, if you say so. Should i bring anything?"
"No, just go there, quickly, i should arrive in a few hours."
"Alright, hope you come up with something, when i woke up Farryvás he started screaming at me, while the others are very worried, Darrias said he knew this would happen."
"Look, right now i just need you to hurry, ill hang up, alright?"
"Okay, see you there then."
"Bye."
Pincalo hangs up and continues on his way to the meeting point.
 
June 25th, 1423 - 7:45 AM - St. Huipa road, Tsala'ipá, Pestalpa.
Pincalo had just arrived in Tsala'ipá, after getting stuck in a muddy road while exiting Maiiztá for aobut 6 minutes, where after agreeing on a spot, in the suburban part of the city, Pincalo met with Andreís to discuss what to do, as well as this he brought the papers he had taken from the DII office in Pinilaca, for him the plan so far was very clear: get rid of the papers to mitigate the damage done if they were caught.
But Andreís wasn't keen on the idea, as if they were caught that could make the situation possibly worse, beacause, while he was loyal to Pincalo, Andreís heavily considered the possibility of selling everybody else out, in return for a shorter time behind bars if they were caught, it didn't help that he had many times disagreed with Farryvás and didn't particularly trust him.
After they both got toogheter, soon started discussing on what to do.
"So what should we do now?" 
"Get rid of theese..." Pincalo pulls out the documents he had gotten from the DII in Pinilaca
"Are you sure its a good idea?"
"Its necessary, we cannot let anyone else find them and cause us further headaches."
"Can't we just hide them, it seems like a better solution to me than outright destroying them, they could prove useful if we get caught."
"No we must get rid of them."
"Come on Pincalo, do you really think Farryvás wont sell us out once he has the chance?"
"He won't, now get to shreading!"
 
With a sigh, Andreís helps shreds the paper near a dry bush, after the two finished, they left, Pincalo back to Pinilaca, and Andreís back to Ryxenia.
 
They both probably knew, public anger would soon errupt later in the day and in the following days of the month.

Here i'll explain (possibly in short) how the flag of Candelù, the flag that unites every candeluian person, from Granzia to Zanna, came to be.
As we know from the factbook, Candelù is divided in 2 "Grandi Staì", meaning, basically, 2 Big Divisions. (In case you haven't read / didn't find that part of the factbook, i'll link it here, keep in mind it's still W.I.P. Divisions of Candelù) What i didn't mention though is, these 2 Big divisions have a flag for themself.
In fact, the flag of Candelù is just these two united, showing exactly the union of the Granzian and Zannese people.
Below are the 2 flags, Respectively Granzia first, and Zanna second.

Each flag has their own meaning, every simbol etc. For this post, i'll just talk about the colors and simbols present in the national Candeluian flag.
-Blue: Taken from the Granzian flag, it rapresents the ocean and rivers present in the Division, in the national flag it's exactly the same, but applied to the whole country.
-Green: Taken from the Zannese flag, it rapresents the land, as it has always been landlocked. On the national flag, it rapresents (back when it was independent, and now as a division) the beautiful plains of the country.
-Yellow (Star): Taken from the Zannese flag, and used in the same way as in the national flag, which is on the 4 pointed star. In both occasions, it shows hope for a bright future.
-Red: Taken from both flags, but the meaning is taken from the Granzian flag. It shows that, even though Granzia (and nowadays Candelù) has always been small, it's people were still  of value for the entirety of Esferos.
United, and put in the specific way we love, these flags rapresent the whole population.





Hail the Emperor
 

Sultan Arif arrived at the Pahlawan stadium at exactly 9.50 in the morning, it looked like many people from Arifiyyah had already arrived there. "How many people do you think are here now?" "According to the secretariat, the stadium is already full of 60,000 visitors, mixed with outside attendees, maybe 80,000 attendees." Sultan Arif and Tok Mat chit-chatting while walking toward the VIP stage. United Adaikes Ambassador to Arifiyyah, Mia Bourke and Consul General Banda Baru, Ladislao Barton were also present at the event. "Welcome Mrs. Bourke and Mr. Barton, thank you for coming. Give my regards to Mr. President." Sultan welcomes his guests. "Thank you Your Honour, we hope this will further improve bilateral relations between our countries, said Mia Bourke with a smile. It was exactly 10am, but there was still no sign of Iqbal at the Pahlawan stadium. "I had doubts from the beginning about the young man," said Tok Mat.
Suddenly,a group of soldiers marched into the stadium,with a man carrying a bix in the middle. The soldiers then make a path for Iqbal towards the stage. Iqbal nervously bring the box to the Sultan. "Apologies,Your Honour. I'm five minutes late." "Don't worry,at least you arrived",said Sultan with a small laugh. Then, Sultan Arif walk towards the 30 meter height pole. He open the box then tied up the flag with the help of few soldiers. After that,the flag was raised accompanied by Arifiyyah's national anthem, Majulah Negaraku
Sultan Arif now ready for the speech.
"Greetings,All Arifians! On this day, we all witnessed a historic event, the exchange of national flags Arifiyyah Darul Fikr. All of you, whether in the audience at Mahoun Stadium or watching on gadgets at home, are witnesses. This exchange of flags is in line with my desire to set new goals for the country and the King, which is to build a developed and fair empire for all, build the people's nationalistic spirit and identity, and govern the country with excellence. This change of flag is not because I don't like the old flag, nor do I have a grudge against my ancestors, but I want a better change in the country. Taking into account the issue of national identity that is fading among the people, beta took steps to change the flag as a first step, and will be followed up with policies for later. This flag will be the symbol of the unity of the people of Arifiyyah under my auspices, from all eight states in Arifiyyah. Unite my people!" Thank you. The passionate speech was met with thousands of claps and cheers.

Iqbal, an ordinary man with a very simple life, lives in a rented house on the outskirts of Kota Kemunting. He only works as a waiter in a fast food restaurant. However, today is a big day for him. The alarm clock showed 9:00 in the morning, "oh, I woke up an hour late! I have to hurry!" He then quickly got ready, then put on a batik shirt specially ordered for the day, and put on the traditional shemagh on his head.
Meanwhile at Arifiyyah Royal Palace, a car branded AA Perdana is already available in front of the palace building. "Are you sure the man can be trusted to bring the flag to the ceremony? Why don't you ask the army or the police to guard it? Or my lord yourself?" Tok Mat, a personal assistant and holder of the Sultan's stamp, doubted the man. "Of course I believe in him. He is the most worthy to carry the flag, because he designed it," said the Sultan. Let's go to Pahlawan Stadium now, don't let the people wait too long,He continued.
The journey from Kota Kemunting to Medina Arif city center takes about 30 minutes. However, the motorcycle that Iqbal was riding suddenly stopped. He picked up the motor then checked every part. "How can my tire leak? When did it step on a sharp object? I haven't seen a vehicle on this highway. The petrol station is far away", Iqbal complained. He sat by his motorbike while tightly hugging a box containing the new flag of his country. The clock showed 9.25am, he had already promised the Sultan that he would be at Pahlawan Stadium at exactly 10am. After almost 20 minutes of waiting, a military truck was seen approaching him and stopped. "What's your problem?" asked the driver. "My motorcycle tire suddenly went flat, I don't have a spare tire. I need to go to Pahlawan Stadium", said Iqbal. Luckily the truck happened to be on its way to Pahlawan Square. Then, the soldiers in the lorry helped Iqbal lift his motorcycle into the lorry, then Iqbal rode the lorry to Pahlawan Stadium.

The Facade Collapses
 
June 24th, 1423 - 9:30 PM - The DII office in Pinilaca, Pestalpa.
It had been more than a month since the case had flared back up again, and with the investigation seemingly having stalled, clearly at the point of going nowhere and most ryxtylopians starting to accept the fact they wouldn't be able to take retribution for those responsible for stealing their tax money, for those on the top it seemed like the whole situation was at an end.
The situation on the streets had calmed down, while it had taken a while, most police officers didn't question the authority of the police department, and the protesters lost motivation after 2-3 weeks. But, while the police had remained united, the DII was tearing itself apart as many had already been skeptical of Pincalo for some time after he had gotten the appointment as director of the department, and his rivals in the DII, people who would've liked to see the position go to themselves continued searching for files, out of theese the most important was probably Julio Xivas, another relativley high ranked member of the DII who expected to be elevated to director status, as he had more experience than Pincalo, but soon enough found himself in an obscure part of the department in Saxa'atí, seemingly cast away from power.
He had been relentlessly trying to get back to manage affairs in his original post in his home state of Cantríxa but found himself with little success, so he tried gathering support from the people in other parts of the DII to look further into Pincalos actions, originally in an attempt to discredit him, but soon enough to keep track of his suspect acts.
 
In the end the divide in the DII is what would doom Pincalo, as soon, ignoring the central authority in Ryxenia, some of the employees in the Pestalpan DII found incriminating documents, listing a "Possible redirecting of funds" from the '22 program to another department, this wasn't the only inconsistency found as several other documents listing the "Redirecting of funds" from departments and offices were found, in total 10 billion Ryxes (over 900 million dollars for reference) with more possibly having been "redirected"
Soon enough theese documents were photographed and copied, soon sent to Julio, whom having discovered a gold mine of material to use against his opponents, determined to see Pincalo fall, headed to the press and published the documents.
 
It wouldn't only be a matter of time before the people were fully notified but as the headlines went out, but Pincalo soon found out.
 
 
June 24th, 1423 - 9:55 PM - Head Office of the Department of Internal Investigation, Ryxenia.
Pincalo was about to leave the DII office in Pestalpa, when he soon got a message from one of his piers informing him about any developments, it read:
Pincalo, we got a severe situation in our hands, several documents where published by the Libres' and uhh, its not good.
After he was sent a link, Pincalo was horrified at what he saw, documents he thought wouldn't be found, he had already been challanged by lower ranking members of the DII but didn't expect something like this to happen, soon something short of panic set in, as he inmediatley called his "loyal" companion most trusted ally in the DII: Andreís.
 
"Come on... answer, ANSWER! YOU IDIOT! ANSWER!"
After a few seconds of screaming at the phone Andreís would answer.
"Hello? Im busy eating dinner right no-"
"ANDREÍS! Thank god, we got a SEVERE SITUATION, i need you to inform everybody else, we'll get sleep and hopefully come up with a plan by dawn, QUICKLY!"
"What happened?"
"Some of the Pestalpan DII documents got lea- you know what, just hurry up!"
"What? What?!" Replied Pincalo, very confused.
"Ill just send you the link to the article, you must inform everybody else RIGHT NOW, understood?!"
"Y-Yes i guess, ill do it right after this call..."
"Good, hope to see you soon, we'll need to talk..." Said Pincalo in a calmer tone before hanging up and then grabbing his hair, still visibly stressed.
 
"God... what will i do now..."
 

@Tophero @United Pritemous Guyndennti @Arifiyyah Accepted!
@Tutorial Bot @Glas Kryanoau Denied due to not being in TWP anymore.

Honestly im tempted to go and have long periods of wait in return for the big vacation, since for me at least the weekends are pretty decent to have rest, i have to admit; they aren't perfect and many times you're still left exhausted.
For me as a student the weekends can also be affected by the ammount of homework i get assigned during the weekend since some professors don't understand that Saturday and Sunday are meant to be sacred- err i mean; days of rest.
But the payoff at the end of the wait is really tempting, 3 months to do whatever you can do, but that's just me.
Do have to admit the shorter but more frecuent vacations are also pretty tempting, its practically a longer weekend and its evenly pread out along the year so that's a bonus, but i do enjoy my long vacations after days and weeks of school.

A REMARKABLE DAY
Medina Arif- Sultan Arif Nazim Shah has publicly expressed his desire to make changes to the Arifiyyah flag. "In the history of every empire or government, the issue of changing the national emblem is a turning point for the entire empire, whether in terms of policy, governance, strength, etc." said His Majesty in a message conference held last week at the Arifiyyah Royal Palace. His Majesty also said that changing the country's emblem will not weaken the spirit of nationalism, it will even strengthen it.
Professor Danial, the director of the history and nationalism faculty said, every citizen in any country must be ready to accept a change in the national symbol in order to realize a bigger change than that. The new flag raising ceremony will be held at Dataran Pahlawan, Medina Arif tomorrow morning at 10 am. All citizens and diplomats are invited to attend this historic event. 

Business Daily - Environmental Sustainability interview with Keira Tano
Business Daily  
June 1423  
Sefo Wils, Senior Reporter
Business Daily
Keira Tano, Senior Advisor for Environmental Sustainability
Bureau of Environmental Sustainability
Sefo Wils: Welcome to today's special interview on environmental sustainability. I'm Sefo Wils, Senior Reporter for Business Daily, and joining me today is Keira Tano, the Senior Advisor for Environmental Sustainability from the Bureau of Environmental Sustainability. Welcome, Keira. Thank you for joining us today.
Keira Tano: Good morning, Sefo. Thank you for having me. It's a pleasure to be here and discuss the crucial topic of environmental sustainability. I appreciate the opportunity to shed light on the government's efforts and initiatives in this field.
Sefo Wils: Keira, let's start by discussing the importance of environmental sustainability and its impact on society and future generations. How would you describe the significance of prioritizing environmental sustainability in our current context, and what are the potential consequences if we neglect this responsibility?
Keira Tano: Thank you for the question, Sefo. Environmental sustainability is of paramount importance for our society and the well-being of future generations. By prioritizing sustainability, we ensure the responsible management of our natural resources, protect ecosystems, and mitigate the impacts of climate change. Neglecting this responsibility could lead to severe consequences. We risk depleting essential resources, compromising biodiversity, and exacerbating climate-related challenges such as extreme weather events and rising sea levels. Additionally, it could hinder economic development, impact public health, and create social inequalities. It is our duty to act now and ensure a sustainable and prosperous future that everyone in Apexiala can enjoy.
Sefo Wils: Could you tell us about specific initiatives and policies that the government has implemented or plans to implement in order to meet these goals?
Keira Tano: Absolutely, Sefo. The government, through the Bureau of Environmental Sustainability, has been actively working to promote eco-friendliness, protect the environment, prevent climate change, and preserve biodiversity. We have implemented a range of initiatives and policies to address these critical issues. For instance, we have introduced stricter regulations on carbon emissions, encouraging industries to adopt cleaner technologies and reduce their environmental footprint. We have also initiated renewable energy programs, incentivizing the transition to clean and sustainable energy sources. To protect biodiversity, we have established protected areas and nature reserves, ensuring the preservation of fragile ecosystems and the species that depend on them. Additionally, we have implemented waste management strategies, promoting recycling, reducing waste generation, and encouraging sustainable consumption patterns. These are just a few examples of the comprehensive approach we are taking to promote environmental sustainability across various sectors. We remain committed to continually evaluating and updating our policies to meet the evolving challenges and ensure a greener and more sustainable future for our nation.
Sefo Wils: Keira, I'd like to delve further into the government's efforts to transition towards renewable and sustainable energy sources. Could you provide some insights into the specific measures being taken in this regard? How is the Bureau of Environmental Sustainability contributing to this transition?
Keira Tano: Certainly, the Bureau of Environmental Sustainability recognizes the importance of transitioning to renewable and sustainable energy sources. We are actively exploring various avenues to achieve this goal. Firstly, we have been conducting geothermal surveys to assess the viability and potential of geothermal energy as a future source of energy. Preliminary findings have been promising, and we are providing government grants to support research and development in this sector.
Additionally, we have been expanding wind farms both on land and at sea, as these continue to be highly eco-sustainable and successful in generating clean energy. Wind power continues to provide a growing contribution towards meeting our energy needs while reducing carbon emissions and minimising our dependency on fossil fuels.
Furthermore, the government is in the early stages of planning a new nuclear power plant. While some may have reservations about nuclear energy, we believe that clean nuclear power can play a significant role in our energy mix. It offers the advantage of low carbon emissions and a consistent energy supply, making it a valuable component of a diverse and sustainable energy portfolio.
In line with our commitment to environmental sustainability, the Bureau of Environmental Sustainability has also rejected new licenses for oil exploration and fracking. These decisions were made to protect our ecosystems, water sources, and mitigate the potential environmental risks associated with these activities. We believe it is crucial to prioritize the long-term well-being of our environment and communities over short-term gains.
Through these measures and more, the government and the Bureau of Environmental Sustainability are actively working to transition to renewable and sustainable energy sources, ensuring a cleaner and greener future for our nation.
Sefo Wils: Keira, some critics argue that being too strict on regulations and sustainability measures may impose economic risks. They claim that stringent environmental regulations could hinder economic growth and competitiveness. How does the government address these concerns?
Keira Tano: It's a valid concern, and one that we take seriously. We understand that balancing environmental sustainability with economic growth is a delicate task. While stringent regulations may have short-term costs, I firmly believe that the long-term benefits outweigh these concerns.
The government recognizes that businesses may face additional compliance costs and operational challenges due to environmental regulations. However, it is also crucial to consider the potential risks of not being strict enough. Failing to address environmental concerns can lead to severe consequences such as environmental degradation, resource depletion, and the exacerbation of climate change. These risks can have far-reaching economic implications, including increased costs due to natural disasters, loss of ecosystem services, and negative impacts on public health and well-being.
Moreover, by taking a "hands-off" approach to environmental sustainability, we risk falling behind in the global transition towards greener economies. Many countries and businesses are embracing sustainable practices and renewable energy, creating new markets and opportunities for innovation. By prioritizing sustainability, Apexiala can continue to have pride in itself for being at the forefront of these emerging industries and foster economic growth and job creation in sectors such as renewable energy, clean technology, and sustainable agriculture.
It's important to strike a balance, and the government is committed to working collaboratively with industries and stakeholders to develop practical and achievable regulations that protect the environment while also considering the economic implications. Through dialogues, incentives, and partnerships, we aim to foster a sustainable and prosperous economy that benefits both present and future generations.
Sefo Wils: Keira, there is growing interest in the transition to electric vehicles and reducing reliance on internal combustion engines (ICE). Are there any plans in place to limit or prohibit the sales of cars with ICE or to insist that all new vehicles must be electric?
Keira Tano: Thank you for raising this important topic, Sefo. The government recognizes the importance of a more diversified mix of vehicle propulsion for a sustainable transportation sector. While there are significant advantages to electric vehicles, such as utilizing clean electricity over fossil fuels and producing zero harmful emissions, we have not yet committed to a specific timeline for phasing out ICE vehicles.
It is true that electric vehicles offer a promising pathway toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving air quality. However, it is important to address the reservations surrounding their production. The extraction of rare earth minerals required for electric vehicle batteries can have negative environmental consequences. The government is actively exploring ways to promote responsible sourcing of these minerals and minimize environmental impacts associated with their extraction.
I think it is very reassuring to see many more Apexialans are becoming ever more environmentally conscious and making their own personal choices to opt for sustainable forms of transportation, including electric vehicles. Consumer demand plays a significant role in driving market innovation and creating a sustainable transport ecosystem.
Ultimately, our goal is to foster an environment where various options for cleaner transportation are available, including electric vehicles, while addressing the environmental challenges associated with their production and ensuring a sustainable and efficient transportation system for the future.
Sefo Wils: Could you shed some light on the government's efforts to raise public awareness about environmental sustainability and engage people in adopting eco-friendly practices?
Keira Tano: Certainly, I think as Apexialans we are quite lucky to always be surrounded by nature and to have such amazing biodiversity and that helps us all to place a high value on our environment. However it is something that all too often we may take for granted and forget the real impact that our actions have on the environment around us.
One of our key strategies is the implementation of public awareness campaigns. These campaigns aim to educate the public about the importance of environmental sustainability, the impacts of individual actions on the environment, and the steps we can all take to reduce our ecological footprint. We collaborate with media outlets, educational institutions, and community organizations to amplify the reach and effectiveness of these campaigns.
Additionally, we have developed educational programs that focus on environmental sustainability at various levels, from schools to community centers. These programs aim to instill environmental values, knowledge, and skills in the younger generation, empowering them to become future stewards of our planet.
Furthermore, we actively engage with community groups, non-governmental organizations, and businesses to collaborate on environmental projects and initiatives. By fostering partnerships and involving various stakeholders, we create a sense of shared responsibility and collective action towards environmental sustainability.
It is through these combined efforts of public awareness campaigns and educational programs that we strive to engage citizens, empower communities, and encourage sustainable practices. I believe that by working together, we can make a significant positive impact on our environment and ensure a sustainable future for all.
Sefo Wils: Thank you, Keira, for sharing your valuable insights on sustainability, we appreciate your time and expertise in shedding light on these important matters.
Keira Tano: Thank you, Sefo, and Business Daily, for having me. It has been a pleasure to discuss environmental sustainability and the government's commitment to protecting our planet. I encourage everyone to play an active role in adopting eco-friendly practices and supporting sustainable initiatives. Together, we can make a significant difference in preserving our environment for future generations

Major flood in the Poldona division, Nature or constructive ignorance?
 
In the last days, the region of Poldona was hit by major floods on all of it's territory. While the president of the region talks about a natural disaster, most of the population is complaining about the systems to prevent these disasters, the organization of the disasters, and in general, everything about the last days.
An image of the flood in the capital of the division, Larsavia.
The emperor is planning to visit the region, in order to show support for the people that were hit from this disaster, only future knows what will happen in Poldona.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Long Live The Emperor.

I do also agree a week off each month is a more effective cooldown from things.

I do also agree a week off each month is a more effective cooldown from things.

I know 3 months isn't 104 days but that amount of summer vacation always had school come around to end it much too fast. I think I'd like a consistent break every month to keep me from going insane all year instead of just a 4th of it.

West Fauthur Central Radio Evening broadcast introductionary program 
West Fauthur Central Radio 8PM sharp 
  
Moderator 1 (Lehan): Good Evening Fauthur! You're tuned in to West Fauthur Central Radio – Evening!, your source for all the latest news, updates, and of course, music. I'm Lehan, and joining me today is our esteemed colleague, Iltip. How are you today, Iltip? 
  
Moderator 2 (Iltip): Good Evening Lehan! I'm doing well, thank you. It's great to be here, especially given the current state of affairs between Fauthur and Aftokratoria. We have a major incident to discuss today. To make things more urgent, it is BREAKING NEWS, Lehan!  
  
Lehan: Absolutely, Iltip. As we all know, the tensions between Fauthur and Aftokratoria seem to be reaching new heights each day with all the pollitical drama and stuff. We've just received a report about a incident that's sure to add fuel to the fire. 
  
Iltip: Literally! Reports indicate that five Fauthurian vessels, still unidentified, deliberately entered Aftokratorian waters earlier today and Shockingly dumped hundreds of barrels of oil into the waters. To make things worse, the zone they dumped the oil in was designated to be a protected natural habitat! Dear listeners, this is a MAJOR slap in the face, straining the fragile situation between Fauthur and Aftokratoria even more. 
  
Lehan: Unbelievable! These actions will surely stick around for a while. Aftokratorian coastal defense forces have swooped in to respond. They wasted no time in taking the sailors on board those Fauthurian vessels into custody. It's important to remember that these sailors are Fauthurian citizens as well! No one except the coastal defense forces and maybe their ministry knows wht’s being done with these sailors and their vessels! We still have not received any updates nor statements on that matter. But still, you gotta say, It’s not been that long ago. In fact, this incident occurred around 3 hours ago! Their Coastal Defense is probably still cleaning up the mess these sailors made. 
  
Iltip: Indeed, Lehan. This incident raises concerns not just about the environment but also about the potential escalation of hostilities. It remains to be seen how our government will respond to their citizens being held captive by Aftokratorian authorities. 
  
Lehan: Absolutely, Iltip. The tension between the two nations has already led to protests and calls for peace from the public. This incident will undoubtedly intensify those sentiments or even make them worse. We can only hope that both governments take these calls seriously and work towards a peaceful resolution. We do not want a war in the worst case! No one wants that.  
  
Illtip: Well said. It's crucial for Fauthur and Aftokratoria to prioritize dialogue and find common ground. The longer this animosity persists, the greater the risk of a full-blown conflict that could have devastating consequences for our country or even others. 
  
Lehan: Now, it appears that our introductionary time frame is running a bit low. Let's move on to some traffic updates to keep our listeners informed. We have multiple incidents reported across the capital this morning. Firstly, there's heavy congestion Westbound on the A6 leading to Ibbenhausen, due to a multi-vehicle collision near the Lemko-District exit. Reportedly, a semi veered off the right lane into the left lane of traffic, striking a sedan. This followed into a huge wreck where multiple vehicles coud not break in time and piled up. There are a total of 8 vehicles involved. It has yet to be seen how many people are injured or even dead. Meanwhile, Emergency services are on the scene and the left lane has reopened, but major delays are expected, so please plan your commute accordingly. 
  
Iltip: Let’s hope no one is injured. In addition to that, we have reports of a wrong-way driver on the A19 Northbound in direction to North Capital Helpe-District. Authorities are responding to the situation, but it's essential for all drivers to exercise caution and be aware of their surroundings.  
 
Lehan: Thank you for the update, Iltip. Fauthurians, let's stay safe on the roads and remain vigilant. Remember, if you're stuck in traffic or need some calming tunes, we've got you covered with our next song. Up next, we have "Sunset Serenade" by the talented Fauthurian artist, Oliva Rehkle. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the music while we continue to monitor the latest developments and keep you informed here on West Fauthur Central Radio. 
  
Iltip: That's right. Stay tuned, Fauthur! We'll be right back after the music with more news, updates, and the best music on the airwaves. 


Confidential Incident Report
 
 

I think something that drives me away from the being reborn in the future option is that: we don't know what it will bring, the chances are to be born into a better enviroment or a considerably worse one. While a lot of both good and bad things have happened in the past that we already know of.
This also depends if; you're able to choose how far into the future/past you would be reborn, to get rid of that element of uncertanty you could play it safe and do not soo far into the future or not soo uh past into the past (if that made sense). If the time you're sent forward or backwards was random i think id much rather just not be reborn into either.

I have a limited regard for the past save a few specific subsets of it and would rather see where the indomitable spirit of mankind takes us in the future. Although if I were born in the future my thoughts would probably be the same. 

Well obviously it depends how far in the past and what time period and such, put I’d rather be born in the past, without hesitation. For one thing, we don’t know what the future holds. Literally anything could happen. Secondly, I am a straight white male living in Canada so I have a pretty decent chance of doing fine lol.

Although I find history very interesting, I wouldn't want to live in the past. There are many things that have improved over time, a great example is medicine. I don't think we will stop making progress, so a rebirth in the future sounds promising. However, because of the unpredictability, I wouldn't want to be reborn in the distant future. I would choose some point between 2040 and 2060.

I would live in he future when we have good body modification technology (and its widely accepted). I think I would also like to live somewhere in space on an artificial world. Like a flywheel space station or a ring world. That way I can live in a place where we have full control of nature so we can enjoy all of its benefits without any of its downsides.

I'm generally a fan of space discoveries, though there's so much in our Earth yet to be discovered in the deep sea that I'm also very interested in that. So both!

Space so Humanity can spread it's eggs to more baskets (some might call this bad for the universe as a whole, but I'm ever hopeful for humanity...even if the last decade has more than whittled away at my faith in humanity)

Do you regard the exploration of the deep sea or outer space with more wonder/excitement/interest (including the development of technologies that better facilitate further space/sea exploration and habitation)

Space for sure! The stars are so pretty
 
I feel like the pressure of the sea makes it difficult to learn about the ocean, however so does the vastness of space

Introduction
The Prince-Bishopric of Garahun is a zealous state proud of its great navy. The people follow the Iusmarite faith, and are led by a prince-bishop, elected by the Council of Illegon upon the previous Bishops death. The bishop holds almost complete control over the country but may be deposed by the Council of Illegon if it so pleases. Recently, however, laws making the calling together of the council difficult have been passed. Garahun has a population of almost 12.000.000 people, and the population is heavily militarized. The navy is led by the Synod of Udôn, who often holds sway over the prince-bishop. Garahun has naval bases around Udôn, and on the islands in the Salt Sea.
