Kits
This year, the kit was designed by Dai Xiaoling. The design keeps to the traditional Blue and white kit that has been commonly used for other Sekiyan sports in the last century.

 
Stadiums
Within the last 20 years with Sekiya’s economic boom and the national interest in football rising, several large stadium projects have been constructed.
昌京国家足球场 (Changjing National Football Arena)

Changjing National Football Arena finished construction in 1415. It is Sekiya’s highest capacity stadium and is used by the Sekiyan National Team and Changjing Thunder. The stadium has a capacity of 90,000, with 80 VIP boxes.
安州云影足球场 (Anzhou Cloud Shadow Football Stadium)

Anzhou Cloud Shadow Football Stadium is the second largest stadium in Sekiya. The stadium is home to the Anzhou Cloud Shadowd, Sekiya’s most successful domestic team in recent years. The stadium seats 86,000 with 70 VIP boxes. Since its completion, the stadium has been used for several music concerts.
璀璨星辰球馆 (Dazzling Star Arena)

Dazzling Star stadium is home to Starlight Swift, based in Fuzhou. It seats 70,000, with 63 VIP boxes. The stadium was built for Xīngyuán Blitz, however, went bankrupt following their demotion from the Platinum League. The site was bought by Starlight Swift and finished in 1404.
Domestic League
Sekiya’s highest level of football is the Platinum League, which has 12 competing teams. Sekiya has 3 teams that have won the majority of seasons in the last 20 years:
安州云影 (Anzhou Cloud Shadow)

Anzhou Cloud Shadow have won the Platinum league in 1423 and 1422, and 5 other times in the last 20 years, making it the most successful team in Sekiya.
星光雨燕 (Starlight Swift)

Starlight Swift are based in Xīngyuán, and have won the Platinum League 6 times within the last 20 years. Originally Xīngyuán Swift, the team was a relatively unheard-of team until 1380, when it was purchased by Starlight Corporation and renamed in 1390.
富州龙 (Fuzhou Dragon)

Fuzhou Dragon have won 4 times within the last 20 years. They are currently the oldest team within the Platinum league, with history going back to 1342.

Hazelhurst Mast to be demolished
The Bureau for Cultral Heritage and Tourism has announced that the 574m high radio tower is to be demolished by the end of 1403.
From: Bureau for Cultural Heritage and Tourism
Published: 17/09/1402
Location: Astana, Sekiya The Bureau for Cultural Heritage and Tourism has recently reached a significant decision regarding the iconic Hazelhurst Mast, Sekiya's tallest structure, standing tall at an imposing height of just over 570 meters just north of the city of Sonnenfeld
Dictator Rupert Von Hazelhurst, driven by a fervent sense of nationalism and the desire to broadcast his ideologies across the heartland of Sekiya, embarked on the ambitious project of constructing the mast as a tool for powerful radio propaganda. This engineering marvel was envisioned to be the conduit through which his messages would reverberate, shaping public opinion and solidifying his grip on power.
The Hazelhurst Mast, despite its historical significance, has been a subject of intense debate in recent years. The question of its preservation, restoration, or even potential dismantling has been a point of contention among cultural heritage experts, historians, and local communities. Some argue for the mast's preservation as a tangible link to a pivotal period in Sekiya's history, a stark reminder of the lengths to which power can be wielded and the sacrifices made for its attainment. Others, however, point to the tower's association with a dictator known for his oppressive regime and the tragic loss of life that accompanied its construction.
Chief of Cultural Heritage and Tourism gave the following speech in front of the senate last Thursday:
Following the speech, several parades in Sekora and across Sekiya were held, celebrating the planned removal of the structure that had long continued to taint Sekiyan history. It is expected that several other structures from the Hazelhurst era may meet the same fate, including the infamous 90 meter tall statue of Hazelhurst in Fëschenstad, that has been covered by scaffolding for the past decade.

35 years and going: CMPC's origins
Published July 12, 1423
Written by Osmond Malmqvist
 
Whilst most mainstream news sources globally have their roots in decades, even centuries, of reporting information, CMPC is different. Now marking its 35th anniversary, the Czuleck Media Publishing Cooperative has had a relatively short term of operation with quite a bit of history. This includes milestones such as establishing the first ever podcast in Czuleck and becoming the first publishing cooperative with media access across the confederation.
With all CMPC has released over the years, many citizens still don't know about the origins of the cooperative. On a voluntary poll issued to online listeners of "Not this again!," our most popular podcast featuring a panel style comedy segment, only 32% of listeners correctly identified who the founders of CMPC were. The remainder of listeners assumed it was started in other ways, including being a former state media company turned anarchist. So for those who may not know the true origin of the cooperative, they may ask, well what is it?
One woman and her camera (1380-1388)
 
At the height of the Czuleck civil war, Salla Lindholm was a member of the Karhu column. The column itself was named after Matias Karhu who was a well known anarchist that spearheaded Czulian Anarchism and workers rights in the 12th century. Although the column's primary objective was to survey defensive positions made by Lewibarr's forces, it additionally had a well known secondary objective: document the war. Karhu's column was critical to providing citizens with regular updates on the war, and ultimately showing its destructiveness in the end. 
Lindholm was an important figure in the column. She went on numerous missions some would describe as "suicidal" in order to relay the truth. This includes infiltrating's Lewibarr's forces to document war crimes on the frontlines, recording up to 39 different troop movements around the city of Bundaberg from bombed out apartment buildings, and even going as far as using a hidden camera to record conversations in a field headquarters where Lewibarr himself was present. 
In total, her efforts to the war were invaluable to say the least. Even as the war was coming to a close and mass demobilizations were starting, her passion for the truth and accountability didn't falter. As soon as she was discharged from the United People's Front (UPF), she contacted former members of Karhu's column to start an organization that would provide citizens with ample coverage of events, and prevent another Lewibarr from occuring.
Change was brewing (1388-1413)
 
After all was said and done, Czuleck Media Publishing Cooperative was established on July 12, 1388. It had over 100 staff members from the Karhu unit that instantly went to work. The combined staff members started putting out daily issues of the news that covered a wide range of topics, including the establishment of the People's Forum and the Sloit trials for war criminals. After much trial and error that includes misprints/spelling mistakes, CMPC became a hit across Czuleck. And with that new found attention, big changes were made to the formula of CMPC.
The first major change was the establishment of a radio and television broadcasting subsidiary in 1392 that was called the Czuleck Media Broadcasting Cooperative (CMBC). Following this was the establishment of a digital newspaper service in 1396, the creation of Czuleck's first podcast in 1406, the development of a smartphone app in 1410, and the creation of the CMPC War Reconstruction Fund in 1412, a service collects donations and assists other nations in reconstructing after war. During this time period as well, the CMPC established publishing studios in all communes of Czuleck, and even created a program that allowed foreign citizens to listen in on global affairs and local Czuleck matters.
However, amid all of these great changes, tragedy struck CMPC. In 1412, during the popular bike racing event "Trek: Czuleck", Salla Lindholm was shot dead by an unknown assailant. Later investigations would prove this murderer was a member of a group that supported Lewibarr during the war, and wanted to reinstall a government similar to his. Although she was gone, CMPC and all of Czuleck would not forget her spirit.
Then to now (1413-Present)
 
Since 1412, CMPC has continued its program of covering various topics in Czuleck with a unbiased eye. No matter any decision made by any council within Czuleck, CMPC has not taken a stance on any political issue since the end of the war. CMPC was created to show citizens nothing but the truth, and it has continued to do so with great success. Programs within the cooperative have given training to reporters to prevent, to the best of their ability, having biases in covering events.
Further advances have been made with CMPC as well, including making a radio station that operates on a fishing trawler and even experimentation with artificial intelligence in regards to organization of stories. In perhaps the biggest accomplishment yet, CMPC has reached an all time high with audience size that is on par with some major foreign outlets. No matter the year, the cooperative intends on advancing its resources as much as possible, whilst sharing its findings with other cooperatives at the same time.
As of right 1423, CMPC has become the largest media source in Czuleck. Despite this large following, CMPC frequently supports smaller media cooperatives across the confederation in hopes to give citizens as many choices as possible. It is important to offer citizens these choices to allow them to form their own opinions on what goes on daily. It is not only the right thing to do, but it also was a goal of Lindholm.

How one app has changed language learning
Published May 2, 1423
Written by Kain Jokinen
 
Almost everyone who has been on the internet has heard of the app DualDialect. It was originally intended to be used solely for language learning but has also had its mascot, a Czuleck Arctic Bear named Dual, coopted in various online memes, depicting them attacking users for not completing lessons. However, the history of DualDialect hasn't been discussed much, and thus begs the question, where did things begin?
 
DualDialect was first designed in 1417 as an easy and mobile way for Czulian diplomats to learn Common, the international language used in numerous global organizations. The founder of the website was Linnéa Hedlund, who previously worked as a web developer in the Foreign Affairs Office. Around her workplace, they heard many accounts from colleagues about the difficulty of learning Common.
 
"Learning a language can be tough, even with those who are the most dedicated to studying it," they said. "I wanted to help as much as I can, so I tried this. It [DualDialect] was something I thought only would be marginally used." However, after the website was released, it was an instant hit. Even those who weren't in diplomatic roles took time to use the program and learn Common for themselves.
 
DualDialect kept much of its format as it did on day one. It uses various characters and animals to help teach users the language they desire. Along with this, language learning is made in a level system, where words and phrases taught become more complex as you progress. Finally, it brought leaderboards into the mix, where you would compete to complete the most levels at once with other users, both local and global. 
 
This explosion in popularity sparked an idea in Hedlund. Why stop at Common when the world has so many languages to explore? Hedlund immediately started working on including other languages through contacts they met while working at the Foreign Affairs Office. Although limited in who she could contact, they were able to expand the website over the years.
 
In 1419, Aftokratorian was added, along with the development of a mobile app to reach a larger audience. Both additions were well received by audiences, especially by those traveling or immigrating to Czuleck. At this time too, the team running DualDialect had expanded from just Hedlund and a few of her friends to hundreds of people, all with the same goal of expanding language learning.
 
Over the following years, numerous updates were released that modernized how the app looked, brought in brand-new languages, and introduced new features. Giovannese and podcasts were added in 1420, programs to connect with Czuleckian universities and schools were introduced in 1421, and a community-based tutoring program was just released last year in 1422. As of this year, Fluvian, Cyrylican, and Apexilian were announced to be in development, and all three will release together sometime either this or next year. 
 
DualDialect has received critical acclaim for both its ease of use and no-cost learning. Millions globally have made accounts, with interest appearing to rise year by year. Studies have shown that users who put forty hours into one of the language programs can receive the same level of knowledge as taking a semester of a college-level language class. In a recent press release, Hedlund expressed her excitement for the road ahead.
 
"With an app like this, the limits are almost endless," Hedlund said. "I am hopeful that the nations of the world can come together for such a project, as this benefits everyone. Being able to communicate with someone across the globe shows how we all are people, no matter where we were born, and how working together could lead to great things."

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.

"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.

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.
