BREAKING NEWS
19 DECEMBER 1421
PEOPLE'S JUSTICE ALLIANCE INTERNAL CRISIS
 
10 days ago, Parti Amanah Kebangsaan president TG Haji Faiz Syafiq As-Sultani and People's Justice Party vice-president Tuan Ahmad Fayiz were fired from PJA and their respective parties on charges of betraying the party, after several viral photos of the two people together some NPC leaders at a dinner party. There are also pictures of them visiting NPC headquarters. Although they denied colluding with the NPC, they were ignored by the PKR President and PJA leader, Tuan Syed Sigaraga and some PJA leaders. "We are not afraid of losing members at all, because we are still strong and I can feel that they do not dare to leave the party because the general election will take place soon. If they leave, those who are influential may lose their influence, "said Syed Sigaraga at a press conference 7 days ago.
 
However, something unexpected when more than 80% of Parti Amanah members and almost 30% PKR members across the country left the party and join NPC after TG Haji Faiz Syafiq and Tuan Fayiz announced to join  PIA and UANO two days ago, they said they will "start from the bottom", as it was considered not fair if they already get positions in the party. The AMANAH leadership has decided to dissolve AMANAH, as some of their members across the country decided to join PKR while part of the morning decided to join LUP. "For God's sake, we never incited them to leave the party, if PJA wants to accuse us again, we will deny it. They came out of their own volition, I swear I and Tuan Fayiz are not responsible for their actions," said TG Haji Faiz Syafiq at a press conference yesterday.
Sultan Arif Nazhim Shah has decided to wait for December 21, the day of the dissolution of parliament for the 15th national election.

The Lavender Festival of Giovanniland
The Lavender Festival is one of the most prominent Giovannilandian holidays, along with New Year (January 1st), Empire Day (January 16th), Kingdom Revolution Day (June 15th), Harvonian Day (August 29th), and Constitution Day (October 30th). It happens during the week before New Year, starting from December 25th, meaning it's also often considered together with New Year composing its final day. 
The festival dates back to the age of the Lavandulan Empire, with archaeological records pointing to the first edition being held around 1100 BF during the reign of Emperor Tsering II. The capital Uryde, at the time known as Lavandula, had prominent lavender fields around it and was thus chosen as the main location for the event. The tradition has passed down generation to generation ever since, from the days of the Lavandulan Empire, then the post-imperial Duchy of Quorivo, and continues to the present day.

The green represents the soil, the lavender represents the plant's fields, and the blue represents the sky.
The lavender is commonly seen in Giovanniland as a symbol as prosperity and renewal, hence the festival's date just before the New Year. However, since the modern calendar was only introduced in Giovanniland through the Abrentans, the celebration has not always happened during the same time of the year. Only after Emperor Giovanni II the Great unified the entire island under the Giovannilandian Empire did the celebration expand beyond the Lavandulan region and start to happen all across the nation. The festival passed on to the modern Kingdom of Giovanniland, and its holiday status was enshrined into law after the passage of the Holidays Act of 1253. 
Giovanniland celebrates the holiday with various activities. Lavender is planted into home gardens some months in advance of the event in order to have them fully grown, and lavender bunches are used to decorate the insides of houses. Lavender aroma compounds and perfumes from lavender oil are also used to give a pleasant odor, and various food recipes also use parts of the lavender and are commonly baked during the festival. Last but not least, it is a common tradition to leave some lavender bunches at the doorstep, so that good fortunes can ensue for the following year.
Therefore, one can see how important this festival is for Giovannilandians from all the nation, and especially the northern part where it originated from. The current mayor of Uryde, Gyalseno Velanio-Lodeno from the Partito Librale-Demokrata, has capitalized on this opportunity to improve the city and the nation's economy through the creation of the upcoming Lavender Fair, with several markets across the city taking part. Each day, a different lavender product will be featured in those markets and have a discount on its price, while other lavender products will be sold normally, although the specific items won't be revealed until their own day. Furthermore, Prime Minister Amore Gile Abrente is expected to visit the fair and deliver a speech about this important celebration, helping on visibility.

COMMENTARY
"Good evening once again, Orandia! I'm Lex Lascar, as always, and we appreciate your patience with us yesterday. We were, ehm, short a few marbles. But we are here today with gold-medal gymnast Lisa Zenik! While her fellow gymnast Roméo Azaïs has managed to earn several medals in several events under the very broad umbrella of gymnastics, he has yet to earn a gold. Now, Lisa, I couldn't help but notice how calm you looked on the parallel bars yesterday. What's your secret to keeping calm, so you don't crack under pressure?
Lisa: "Honestly? I don't mind crowds when I perform. I know some people don't like it, or block it out, but I like to hear people cheering. In fact, I told the other gymnasts to cheer extra loud when I was up. It's really motivating for me."
"I know I, for one, enjoy a good cheer directed at me. But in the semi-final round, you were in the last qualifying spot. I, and I'm sure all of Orandia, was worried you wouldn't get the green light to continue. What factors do you think contributed to that 15.1?"
Lisa: "I had a new, unique technique I used on the uneven bars, but it didn't quite go perfectly, and I didn't get any medals for it. So my coach and I decided to apply what we could of it for the parallel bars, instead. It takes awhile to adjust a routine like that, and it was very risky, but go big or go home, right? So my head wasn't fully in it for the semifinals, and I didn't get off the bars quite right. But I felt much more confident when I did it for the finals."
"I can't imagine the skill it takes to change a routine so quickly. You must have felt like there was a tug-of-war between your old habits and the new ones. But you prevailed! Now that Roméo isn't the only Orandian gymnast with a medal, how are conversations with your fellow gymnasts going these days?"
Lisa: "I've definitely rubbed it in his face. But then he tells me he can't hear me over his three medals. I think Celeste and Jules are a little jealous of the both of us, although Jules is better at not showing it. I hope they get medals at some point, too. They've definitely trained hard enough to earn one."
"And that's all we have time for today! Thank you for answering my questions, Lisa. I'm going to go watch the last episo–I mean, the last Esferiad events of the day! I'll see you next time, Orandia, and have a good night!"
 
LOOKING AHEAD–DAY THIRTEEN
- The Orandian indoor volleyball team plays against the United Adaikes in the semifinal.
- Orandia's four gymnasts participate in the vault event.

Hierminister Hereward's statement on the accessibility of free menstrual products in all state-operated schools across Nieubasria Statement | North The High | November 5, 1421 | Hierminister for state of Education, Adela Hereward, issued the following statement:
"Not having the ability to access menstrual products makes it hard to fully participate in school. I want to make sure that young girls have every opportunity to thrive in school and are not limited by factors they can't control.
With the generous attention and fast-tracking made possible by Estates-Minister of Education Blanid, to promote and uphold sexual and reproductive health and rights, we will make access to menstrual products free for all students at state operated schools across Nieubasria. All students in state-operated primary and secondary schools and in select state-operated Universities and colleges schools across Nieubasria will have access to free menstrual products in the coming weeks. We will work with partners and consult with communities to ensure that menstrual products are available to all students who need them. We will share more details on this initiative in the following weeks.
Menstrual products are a basic need and are essential to ensure a person's full participation in school, work, and society. I am fully committed to making these vital products readily available and to supporting girls across the country."

Government of Nieubasria invites small businesses to develop an artificial intelligence decryption service
News release | Clarendon | November 4, 1421 | Innovation, Science and Economic Development Basria, Agency of the Estates-Ministry of Industry
The Government of Nieubasria is looking for innovative ways to help Basric businesses succeed. Today, Innovative Solutions Basria launched a new challenge led by the Prince's Special Police (PSP).
Along with other Basric law enforcement agencies, the PSP is facing challenges in accessing encrypted data seized during the course of criminal investigations. Individuals engaging in illegal behaviours have been using sophisticated encryption techniques to bypass legal prosecution. The PSP is looking for an artificial intelligence decryption system that can process the seized data files and generate specific word lists to try and access the encrypted material.
Quick facts
Small businesses will have until December 20 to apply to the challenge.
Through the Innovative Solutions Basria program, government departments are inviting small businesses to come up with a new innovative product, service or solution that answers a specific challenge they face. Winning small businesses may receive up to 750,000฿ to refine their research and development and, if accepted into phase 2, receive up to 5฿ million to develop a working prototype. The government can then act as a first customer, helping these businesses commercialize their innovations, scale up their business and create secure middle-class jobs across Astoria.
Innovative Solutions Basria is a key component of the government-in-Hier’s Innovation and Skills Plan, a multi-year plan to make Basria a global innovation leader and prepare all subjects to succeed in tomorrow’s economy.
There are hundreds of programs and services that offer everything from funding to expert advice in order to help businesses innovate, create jobs and grow Basria's economy. Using a simple, story-based user interface, the Innovation Basria platform can match businesses with the most fitting programs and services in about two minutes.

Kurabis-based wellness company geared toward seniors to pay 950,000฿ for violating telemarketing rules
News release | Clarendon | November 3, 1421 | Basric Radio and Telecommunications Commission (BRTC), Agency of the Estates-Ministry of Public Infrastructure
The BRTC today announced that Kuradiffusion Inc has agreed to pay a 950,000฿ penalty as part of a settlement for making non-compliant telemarketing calls. The Parducze, Kurabis-based company, more widely known as DiffusariKo, specializes in the direct sale of wellness products geared toward seniors.     
The investigation uncovered that DiffusariKo committed several violations of the Unsolicited Telecommunications Rules between September 1418 and October 1419. During that period, millions of unsolicited calls were made to Basrians– some of which were made to telephone numbers registered on the Statutory Do Not Call List (SDNCL) and outside of the permissible calling hours. Some calls were also made during periods when the company failed to purchase a subscription to the Statutory DNCL. The company enlisted the services of call centres based in Santos-Dominius and Deneiria. 
Basrians who think the telemarketing rules are not being followed can submit a complaint to the BRTC.

                               Today in Quoriv, Vivien Sampaio the Gymnastics Nieubasria posterwoman has announced her retirement from organized gymnastics. This comes just weeks after she says her doctors confirmed her pregnancy. 
Esferic Quorum doctors advised Vivien to not compete in such strenuous activity as this level of athletics poses. This may have contributed to her standings when compared to the first Esferiad. 
Gymnastics Nieubasria has expressed their best wishes as Vivien completes these games and in all future endeavours.
She and her partner, Estael intend to focus on their family in the coming months. 
 

Dazano, Lavanda Prima, Giovanniland—13:20 PM International Atomic Time, 5th November 1421
The Settimo-Nerani family had just finished their lunch for the day, after the two brothers Augusto and Flavio had a busy day of class at high school.
"I've got all of our things ready for our trip to Quorivo for this weekend," told Matteo to his wife Angela. "Do you as well, darling?"
"Yes," she answered. "I'll call the children. Augusto, Flavio, let's go!"
Augusto was of course playing a game in his phone, while Flavio was reading the second part of the Lord of the Necklaces trilogy, but the two wanted to watch some Esferic events again so they quickly went to the car.
"Today we'll travel the same 50 kilometers between Dazano and Quorivo, but without stopping for lunch, so it should hopefully take less time for us to arrive," thought Matteo.
"An hour and a half or so," said Angela.  
The family took a different, less crowded route this time, as there were many Giovannilandians traveling to Quorivo to see some of the games in the final matchdays. It was commonly known as the Palm Tree Road, due to the common occurrence of these trees, and passed west through Medottone and then north to Quorivo instead of the traditional Uryde route.
"This landscape is very beautiful indeed," thought Flavio to himself.
In 40 minutes they were at Medottone, driving through the downtown of the city with around 100,000 inhabitants, and passing near the Perkurso Mallisfere Medottoni, the Golf Course of Medottone.  
"Look, the golf competition is happening right now! I can see our athletes Vanessa Desniana, Norberto Merenda-Ferrari, and Leandro Gilvano-Andrea," remarked Angela.
"Hopefully they're performing well, I wish we could watch this as well," said Flavio.
"Same, but then we wouldn't have time to watch the upcoming football match against Dilber," noted Augusto.
"Yeah... let's give goodbye to them and continue our journey!", told Matteo.
Quorivo, Lavanda Prima, Giovanniland—15:00 PM International Atomic Time, 5th November 1421
Another 40 minutes and they arrived at Quorivo. The Stadio Lidoborano, in which the Giovanniland v. Dilber game would happen, was on the western part of the city. It would start at 15:30 PM, so the family had arrived half an hour earlier.
Many seats were already occupied by Giovannilandians, Dilberians, and some football fans from other countries. The referee then called the two captains, including Lorentio Santo-Ferrari from Giovanniland, and flipped a coin to decide the team that was going to start.
Then the game started, with the two teams looking for opportunities and fiercely attacking each other. The Giovannilandian squad was using a 3-3-4, after all.
"I think our team should quickly make a goal or two, and then defend for the rest of the game, since the Dilberians are known to purely attack," thought Augusto.
And indeed that happened. Striker Gustavo Zapata scored Giovanniland's first and only goal of the match with only 10 minutes in, although during the rest of the first half many failed opportunities from both sides also happened. It was a very dynamic and active game, and the family watched closely.
During the second half, however, a change in pace of the game then ensued, as Giovannilandians switched to defense—striker Klementina de Abreo-Florino was replaced by center back Tommaso Laruta, who also had played in the 1st World Cup of Football.
"Ugh, this is turning into something pretty boring," said Augusto some minutes in. "I wish this could also be like some other matches, such as our 3-0 against Tupmonia or 3-1 against United Adaikes."
"Actually," remarked Flavio, "I think this is a good strategy. Giovanniland will face either Fujai or Nieubasria in the semifinals, and it's good to save some stamina."
"Looks like Nieubasria, they're winning 3-0," added Matteo.
"Fair enough," said Augusto. 
The rest of second half was pretty uneventful, although at the end of the match, the family and the other Giovannilandian fans were happy to see the team win.
"Hurray! I just researched, looks like Giovanniland has also won in other team events like field hockey, rugby sevens, and indoor volleyball," told Augusto.
"Don't forget handball!", replied Angela. "Our team has just won the gold medal by 29-27 in a close match against Nieubasria."
"I wish we could've watched that as well, sadly it started half an hour earlier than this football match and finished a while ago now," thought Matteo.
Quorivo, Lavanda Prima, Giovanniland—17:30 PM International Atomic Time, 5th November 1421
The family then left the Stadio Lidoborano, soon driving to the Deversorio Hortensia (a Giovannese name meaning Hydrangea Hotel). It was a comfortable but not very expensive hotel in Quorivo, and had some nice hydrangea flowers around the building for decoration, therefore giving it the name.
A traditional Lavandulan dinner awaited them, and for the rest of the evening they watched the recording of other events, such as the Gymnastics Rings event in which Isayas Delliaro-Varrutio and Lukiano Annabella-Tappone had achieved gold and bronze medals for the nation respectively.
They all awaited for the next day, yet to decide the events to watch and other things to do in Quorivo. "Let's think about that tomorrow," told Matteo and Angela. "Good night all!"
"Good night," Augusto and Flavio repeated in unison, and everyone in the family went to sleep.

Here we see a truly stunning scene in the natural environment of the HNJEK Karventhin offices. The Orangutano Clarksonius and the Hamsteridae Hammonder are witnessed attempting to murder each other with a machine gun & a pistol respectively. The Spanielis Mayli has a knife in his head, yet miraculously still lives. Also, hooray for recycling previous intros!
Continued from the previous episode.
 
Makoto Nankov: What is your most frequently used emoji?
Richard Hammond: I have never used an emoji ever.
Jeremy Clarkson: I don't use, ever, emojis.
Richard Hammond: Me neither, I never use them. It's just inappropriate! It just feels wrong to be using an emoji, I don't feel like I should. James, you have used emojis.
James May: I have. I've, er, only ever used the thumbs up one occasionally because you can do it in lots of different colours, it's very right on. So you can have it all the way from sort of pasty Northern Polaris to, you know, somebody from New Velka, you've got all shades of person.
Dio Burluka: What music are you listening to?
Clarkov Jammbonevych Furutani: I've got the MBTI as Instrumental Music Collection by Natalya, er, some medieval music, two anime albums and... that's all off the same album, that's just my special occasions material.
Jeremy Clarkson: [confused and displeased grimace]
Richard Hammond: When did he get here?
James May: Not a clue, but his music taste is strange.
Clarkov Jammbonevych Furutani: I... thought I was alone. 
Richard Hammond: You can stay if you want, since you're here now.
James May: Fine by me.
Clarkov Jammbonevych Furutani: [soft smile]
Faust Ḩarełeudeiem: What was the last note you wrote to yourself?
Richard Hammond: "Tamara Davies died. Off continent, look back & do all we can. Tamara Davies still died. We are what we are in a time we can conceive and measure." Utterly meaningless...!
Jeremy Clarkson: "The Stig's Doll Guldurian cousin, something to tell us?" "Yes diarrhoea, c) pick on people in bins." I suspect it was- there was a story that The Stig's Doll Guldurian cousin was joining the Esferiad. They got a photograph of maybe a sign-up document as the Postcard Online called it, they'll have gone 'something to tell us Doll Guldur Stig?' and it would hold up a sign saying 'Yeah, I've got diarrhoea. Just got a bit of a bloated engine, I'm going to have a big sh-t in a minute'. F-cking Postcard Online.
The Stig: ... .... ...... ...... .. ... ..... [Translation: How many unread emails do you have?]
James May: 111,672.
Richard Hammond: I've got just 2.
Jeremy Clarkson: Here's my inbox.
Richard Hammond: That's a lot of unread.
Jeremy Clarkson: All of them are unread. So if you're watching this Faust Ḩarełeudeiem, Karen Kovalenko, Suu Strashilova, Mizore Savenko, Enrico Priedītis, Armando Slobodyan, Chara Dreimanis whoever you are, Kou Kovalchuk, Embry Balkanska, Ongo Sidopliassova, Shirou Fomenko, Lemres Romanov, Sentinel Putniņš, Ryo D. Lait, Mečislavs Deben: unread!
[Clarkson & Hammond burst into laughter]
Richard Hammond: Yeah you should probably try a bit harder there.
Jeremy Clarkson: Oooh- that's a bit embarrassing. [still laughing during sentence]
 
Yeah, we didn't make an episode yesterday, again, but we do have a habit of this now. Perhaps we should try and make more time to do these. Besides, some say that 
Goodbye & Goodnight everyone!

Giovannilandian Esferiad Report - 12th Day
21 Gold - 15 Silver - 17 Bronze
Good morning Giovanniland! I am Karlo Nakamura-Edrense, the host of the Giovannilandian Esferiad Report, and today I'll talk about the Esferic events as usual—reviewing the ones that happened yesterday, and then briefly talk about the ones starting soon today. Giovanniland earned 4 medals yesterday and crossed the 50 medal milestone, so there's lots to talk about!
Just like the previous matchday, the only Kharventhin event with Giovannilandian participation was Indoor Volleyball, in which a close match against Dalimbar with sets of 26-24, 25-14, 18-25, 24-26 and a tiebreak of 15-11 gave our team the victory. The semifinal match will now be against our Blue Bubble neighbors! Knockout stages for other team events also happened today—for example, the Giovannilandian Field Hockey team went past Hertfordshire and Jammbo with a 5-3 score, the Football one beat Dilber 1-0, and the Rugby Sevens one won 24-12 against Cambria. Both the Field Hockey and Football teams will meet Nieubasria in the semifinals, while the Rugby Sevens one will play against United Adaikes.
Furthermore, two other team events also had their final matches take place yesterday. The Handball game saw Giovanniland win against Nieubasria with a very close score of 29-27. As for the Lacrosse team, after they lost the semifinal in a close match against Nieubasria, they fought Dalimbar in the bronze medal match and won with a score of 18-6! These two sports each gave Giovanniland one medal, while the two other medals from the day came from the Gymnastics Rings event featuring Lukiano Annabella-Tappone, Sollenne Sousa Kandido, Silvana Mantovani, Isayas Delliaro-Varrutio, and Romeo Saverri-Mattei. Isayas, Lukiano and Romeo all advanced to the final, and were ranked 1st, 3rd and 6th respectively! And even though Romeo did not win a medal, he did set a new Esferic record of 16.500 in the semifinals, so congratulations to all these athletes.
Two other events also happened in Quorivo with Giovannilandian participation. The first one was Mountain Biking, featuring Tamara Altada Linario, Antonietta Arruntio Kandido, and Margerita Fernando-Vittoriani. None of them reached the podium, but Tamara and Margerita came very close, finishing 4th and 5th with times of 2:00:58 and 2:01:22 respectively! Sadly, Antonietta did not manage to finish, but all mountain bikers performed well nevertheless.
The other was Golf, which featured Vanessa Desniana, Norberto Merenda-Ferrari, and Leandro Gilvano-Andrea. Vanessa, a known athlete and this program's former main reporter, finished in 6th place with a score of 77 (note that smaller scores are better in golf). Meanwhile, Leandro and Norberto both tied for 15th place in the end, with a score of 82.
With two matchdays left in the Esferiad, we continue our program by talking about future events! In Kharventhin, Giovannilandian athletes Yolanda Fagundi-Torio, Italo Helvio-Rossi, and Benditto Kervariani will appear in Shortboard Surfing, and our team will appear in the Semifinals of Indoor Volleyball. The other Kharventhin events, namely Canoe-1 Slalom, Boxing Heavyweight, and Badminton Doubles events, do not have participation from our nation. Meanwhile, the events in Quorivo will be:
Semifinals of Field Hockey, Football, and Rugby Sevens (team events);
Road Cycling Time Trial featuring Umberto Hibernio, Priskilla Linare-Vitale, Manuella Violetone, and Tadeo Remo Bellieno;
Track Cycling Individual Sprint featuring Alessandra Kanassiro, Vinikio Garrulo Silva, Kristiana Hermentidio, and Fernandino Quartiano;
Gymnastics Vault and Individual All-Arounds featuring Lukiano Annabella-Tappone, Sollenne Sousa Kandido, Silvana Mantovani, Isayas Delliaro-Varrutio, and Romeo Saverri-Mattei;
That is the schedule for the thirteenth day of Esferic events! You can watch them on the channels 201 to 210, and for members of our monthly subscription, we also have recordings in our website if one isn't able to check them live. See you tomorrow for another report!

Tupmonia Strikes Gold
Just after Tupmonia surprised itself with a Bronze medal, Jill Comb shocks the world with her gold medal in golf. Jill came into the contest as a major underdog, being considered the “worst” golfer of her teammates, and one of the least skilled entering the contest. Jill surprised the crowd and put on a show, leading to her gold medal. 
Jill spoke to the reporters in tears saying, “This is the greatest moment of my life… nobody expected me to do this, but my teammates had faith in me and pushed me to be the greatest I could possibly be…FOR TUPMONIA AND FOR THE KING!”
 
In other sports Tupmonia took their second straight win in Indoor Volleyball. Tupmonia also won in Field Hockey. Tupmonia also took their 4th straight loss in Football.

Giovannilandian Esferiad Report - 11th Day
19 Gold - 15 Silver - 15 Bronze
Good morning Giovanniland! I am Karlo Nakamura-Edrense, the host of the Giovannilandian Esferiad Report. I'll start by saying that Giovanniland earned a total of 7 medals, tying the record set in the 4th Day, and even better is the fact that three of those were gold medals as well!  I'll talk about the events that made this possible and the other ones too.
In Kharventhin, the only event with Giovannilandian participation was Indoor Volleyball, in which the team won against Larxia three sets to zero, and finished the group stage with a total of 18 points. This has of course earned Giovanniland a place in the quarterfinals, where the team will face Dalimbar. Other team events happened in Quorivo, with other group stages also coming to an end. In Field Hockey, our team drew 2-2 with Nieubasria and finished 3rd in Group A, with an upcoming duel against Hertfordshire & Jammbo. Football also saw Giovanniland advance to the knockout stage, finishing strong with a 3-1 win over United Adaikes; the Giovannilandians will now meet the Dilberians in the quarterfinals. Finally, the Rugby Sevens group stage also ended yesterday. Giovanniland beat Nieubasria 26-20 to qualify, and will now play against Cambria next. 
At the same time, other team sports had their semifinals happen yesterday. One of them was Handball, in which the Giovannilandians won 26-22 against the Larxians and earned a place in the gold medal match, to play against Nieubasria tomorrow. Another was Lacrosse, in this sport Giovanniland was defeated by Nieubasria with a score of 11-9, and will now fight against Dalimbar for the bronze medal.
Finally, the Track Team All-Arounds and Field Team All-Arounds competitions also happened and featured all Giovannilandian participants of athletic events. Our nation was very strong in these two events, winning with scores of 125 and 194 respectively, and bringing two more gold medals home—for those wondering how this event works, teams are ranked by performance across various events, with 10 points for each event's first place, 9 points for second place, and so on.
Three individual events also happened in Quorivo. Gymnastics Parallel Bars featured Lukiano Annabella-Tappone, Sollenne Sousa Kandido, Silvana Mantovani, Isayas Delliaro-Varrutio, and Romeo Saverri-Mattei; with Isayas, Romeo and Lukiano all qualifying for the final. Isaias finished 3rd, thus achieving a place in the podium! In the Stage 2 of Badminton Singles, Lorena Sulimano and Kesar Kuriato-Giakini both met in the semifinals, with Lorena winning the match. Lorena then lost the final to Afeeq Nasrullah from Arifiyyah, while Kesar did not manage to earn the bronze medal, as he was defeated by Chia Jun An, also from Arifiyyah. Finally, in the BMX Cycling event, the athletes Stefano Lavandula-Quorivo, Paloma Alboquerko, and Liana Vagellio all participated. They dominated the finals and finished 1st, 2nd and 3rd respectively, bringing Giovanniland three medals and a podium sweep—an awesome performance! 
With three matchdays left in the Esferiad, we continue our program by talking about future events! In Kharventhin, Giovannilandian athletes will only appear in the Quarterfinals of Indoor Volleyball, as the nation did not enter any athlete for the Kayak-1 200 m Sprint, Karate Kumite and Boxing Heavyweight events. Meanwhile, the events in Quorivo will be:
Golf featuring Vanessa Desniana (our former reporter!), Norberto Merenda-Ferrari, and Leandro Gilvano-Andrea;
Mountain Biking featuring Tamara Altada Linario, Antonietta Arruntio Kandido, and Margerita Fernando-Vittoriani;
Gymnastics Rings featuring Lukiano Annabella-Tappone, Sollenne Sousa Kandido, Silvana Mantovani, Isayas Delliaro-Varrutio, and Romeo Saverri-Mattei;
Finals of Handball and Lacrosse, as well as Quarterfinals of Field Hockey, Football, and Rugby Sevens (team events);
That is the schedule for the twelfth day of Esferic events! You can watch them on the channels 201 to 210, and for members of our monthly subscription, we also have recordings in our website. See you tomorrow for another report!
