Thursday, 5th February 1426 - West West Fauthur marketplace A sunny day, lukewarm around 17° Celsius, around 15:00. The streets are packed, packed with people of all kinds, ethnicities, ages.. Truly a rare sight these days in Fauthur - After all, the last couple of years have been quite a ride for Fauthur and its populace. But.. none of that political talk now.. The marketplace is a huge place, and the second largest marketpplace in all of Fauthur, you could compare it to a national park of sorts, 2 square kilometers of pure greenery, paths and nichely cut stone pavement. Enough space to accommodate the inflow of people nicely. A lot of emergency service vehicles litter the large marketplace. Firefighters here, police there, medical personnel through and inbetween. It is National Emergency Services day. Children using firehoses to splash targets, and in some cases, eachother. Toy guns are handed out, as large groups of cops and robber plays are organized, next to free self defense courses. Reanimation courses, tips on preventing diseases, blood and plasma donations, and organ donation passes are offered by medical services. Commemorations are being held in an hour for fallen emergency service personnel on the cityˋs graveyard. A record low of emergency calls is recorded year after year on this very day. It is taught in schools, on social media, to everyone who will listen from a very young age, that emergency services are to be respected as much as possible. Therefore, additionally to a record low in emergencies, attacks on emergency service personnel is at one of the lowest statistics in Nur. Though there is a record low of emergency calls, doesn't mean that there are none. - 15:35 - "Emergency Service Center West Fauthur, what is your emergency?" -"Hello, I've just been shopping at *Address redacted* center. Behind the building [Unintelligible] and now there's *signal interference* [unintelligible] smoke. Please check it out" "Alright, I will send the fire department to check it out. Do you know if anyone is injured?" -"No I don't, I'm on my way home." "For documentation purposes, could you tell me your name please?" -"[Redacted]" "Alright, if there is nothing else, have a nice day, we'll send someone" -"Goodbye" - 15:37 - "Emergency Service Center West Fauthur, how can I help?" -"*interference*" "Hello?" -"*muffled noises*, *rustling*" "Can you he-" -"*Hangs up*" - 15:38 - "Emergency Service Center West Fauthur, what is your emergency?" -"Yes hello, I'm a supervising manager for the north harbour, a container crane failed and dropped a container loaded with Class BII toxic gasses. Several workers in the vicinity have collapsed. We need help immediately" "Alright, I will dispatch help as we speak. It is imperative that no one tries to go near the container. Do not try to rescue the collapsed workers if they lay near the container in a vicinity of at least 50 meters" -"Okay, I will make sure of that, please hurry.2 "Help is on the way sir. May I have your name please?" -"Yeah... It's [Redacted]" [Rest of the call for privacy and data purposes redacted] Though there are good sides, with the nationwide celebrations, the emergencies still keep personnel busy. But let's take a look at the hospitals, the homes for elderly and disabled, all the personnel which cannot celebrate due to emergencies or vital jobs for the populace. Working tirelessly night and day, rushing through rooms, comforting family members of deceased and injured, trying their best to safe people and taking care of the elderly. Many witnessing deaths on the daily, dealing with all the stress. Those very people, the national holiday is also meant to be for, cannot participate. They are important, vital, paramount for society and everyone, even those who don't need them currently. But they are so important, that they make sure those who need it get treated. Be it through holidays, catastrophes, emergencies or even if they themselves are sick. Thank you to all who do their best on the daily.

Accomplished Exactly 574 days, or 18months and a couple of days have gone by since the last update on the effects of the rather sudden change in government. Democracy has cchanged, traffic has changed, the economy, public transport, laws and regulations, even general life has all changed. Fauthur is now a vastly different country than it once was, and that shows in all aspects of life, even in all walks of life. On to the points of change. How have all these changes affected people and the country? Is the transformstion complete? How do thinks work differently? And most importantly, what is now in place to hinder a non-democratic government from going back? Well, let’s start off slowly, with the points spoken about 574 days ago, and let’s elaborate a bit further on them, even bring out new points, all to comprehend the difference, the crucial change that has taken hold. The government, as it can now call itself successfully, is deeply established, no more a provisional one that could make even the most reserved person laugh aloud. They brought in policies and changes, making the populace quite content with it. They’ve shown that they care about democracy, even reinstated elections, worked out a whole new process (which can be found in the factbook) and set many policies in place to remain as a stable government, showing promise and seeding relieve among the population. Back then it still had the problem of bureaucracy being far too much to handle, though they’ve made a lot of progress in modernization and evaluating, hiring and optimizing processes. Still, the backlog is still ever so present, showing the ineffectiveness of the prior administration. Estimates say that catching up to the present level of issues, it would take about 6 years of day and night shifts. The mail however has stabilized as it now takes on median just 1 week and 1 day to arrive, which is noteworthy but can be improved. The general life in Fauthur at this date is best to be described as a pool of opportunities waiting for people, present healthcare and education are a given at this stage. The previously enacted policies by the prior administration are now almost gone, with no real effects to feel anymore. Major cutbacks and liberations in place, there are for certain no more curfews, no more public surveillance, except for security measures in many buildings to reduce crime. Armed patrols are only used on the borders for the present. It is paramount to add, that the happiness in Fauthur, as surveyed by many independent surveyors, shows a 30% increase in contrast to the 16th of october 1423, though in recent events the happiness seems to have waned down to 22 percent, due to the international backlash of some of the governments actions taken on the world stage. Welfare policies remain the same, with marginal improvements, as the backlog of bureaucracy fades and public services are on the rise, as even citizens can, through a tedious and secure process, secure funding for several services in regions and cities where they are not so much present. Public transport operates now free of charge in larger parts of Fauthur, excluding railway transport, as it can not be financed at this time. The government is moving on a thin line to manage spending and income and has to pay attention not to cut back or change too much in any aspect of Fauthur as it can cause volatile changes to the economy. The debt taken upon the government to stabilize the country after the change is enormous, but being paid off ever so slightly. With the recent events in the Aftokratorian Affair and the Viatic Ocean, the economy is attacked a major amount, leading to a slight decline in just about everything. The education of Fauthur has been revamped and shows successful implementation of electronics into the system, though exams and tests are still written by pen and paper. The digitalisation of education plan has been almost completed and just about every school been fitted with TVs, brand new computers and other important electronics. This has led to a scientifically proven increase in productivity, but in a slight decline of writing quality. Getting back to the point of public transport, the railway network was, or still is, majorly outdated and in need of a renewal. Significant funding has gone into the railway transport, but only for cargo being transported, this has the effect of still rejuvenating used tracks and letting the old reserve passenger trains run their course on the network, exempt from environmental regulations. It turned out that the expanding of the network and building new stations and tracks took too much of a strain on the budget, and was a bad decision as the monthly costs turned out too devastating to justify spending more. The administration is now working on a new railway plan, even planning to implement an independent railway infrastructure administration in every state, “starting from scratch” in all major regions. To this day, it remains a major money pit and economical issue that will be present in Fauthur for generations to come. As an addition, tram networks in major cities work fine. The planned reintegration of public transport by train by the end of 1425 was a far too ambitious target and will be moved to 1436 as a temporary and interchangeable date. Transport by bus has been expanded in 1423, now shining at the forefront of Nuran competition as it was the largest investment into Transport overall since the government change, leading to up to date busses in all but the most remote Fauthurian places, a voluntary fee of 50 Presence Coins to use the bus and the divide of compartments, allowing for women and children to use the bus services safely. As stated by the government in 1423 the ticket prices were a “fair exchange of services”. Reflecting on that and as a comment from the current government, it is now stating that “The ticket prices, or rather the voluntary fee was instituted to help reduce co2 pollution and incentivize the use of public transportation, as traffic plays a significant role in Fauthur. The infrastructure of public transportation is well-funded, but still gets 1,5 million Presence Token yearly just from voluntary fees, some even varying in amount.” Another point from the previous report was traffic laws and road maintenance. Here, the government changed speed limits, set up speed traps and funneled money into the highway and main city connections, which worked out well in reducing congestion in multiple parts of Fauthur and an improvement of noise and air pollution was reported. The government wanted change on another major issue, the low MPG cars. These are scheduled to be completely abandoned by 1427, though several reconsiderations came up and the date has been revised to the start of 1430, with more incentives plopping up across the industry. As the new production and efficiency standards hit the market, it was not well received and almost crippled the then current automobile industry irreversibly in many parts, though it has been rehabilitated, still heavily reliant on Kalmash car imports and retrofitting for the new guidelines. The international political stage for Fauthur evolved for far worse than anticipated, with the Aftokratorian Affair already affecting citizens in 1423, sanctions and a more aggressive stance towards Aftokratoria by a major margin. Hostility, pessimism and overall divide leads the sentiment of the citizens regarding foreign people and other countries. The citizens have proven to be quite xenophobic, especially since the majority of the population went through the era of oppression with the prior administration. The economy thus far is in a slight decline, which is a direct result of sanctions from other countries and the Aftokratorian Affair. A major step in the economy was stabilizing it. At the start of the new administration, the economy was a very volatile and drastic one, changing drastically every hour, using up all of the remaining money of the government for stabilization, leading to an uptake in government debt, which proved to be the much needed barrier to slowly stabilize the economy after such drastic overall changes. Before the sanctions in the Viatic Ocean Affair, a medium amount of debt was repaid as a measure of reducing debt to GDP ratio and reducing interest rates. So far, the stable but slight decline is nonetheless a positive thing, in that the market is largely stable as it is. It has been an arduous time in Fauthurian history, as the radical changes happened all throughout the country, to ensure a quick and specific change away from the oppressive regime that once plagued its citizens. Sure, issues still persist and will be major projects to be worked on, though no country can and will be perfect, especially not after such radical changes and so little time. Give it time and it will prosper. Rush it and it will die off. With this sentiment, although some and many times hard to go through with, is a rewarding and beautiful process, delicately letting you consider your choices and the choices your country makes. Thus, this marks the end of the transition to a democracy, although flawed, it is one. And the citizens are proud of that fact, and no one can take that from them.

NACA and MNS - Human Rights Violations regarding Fauthurian practices In light of recent events, the leader of the department of internal affairs in the ministry of national security, in unison with a number of independent news outlets, paired with the National Anti-Corruption Agency (NACA) published a study comparing several factors of discrimination, crime against ethnic minorities and most importantly, Aftokratorians. The report has hit the main stage media and is spreading like wildfire. Furthur sources report communities unifying for, aswell as against minorities and Aftokratorians. The country is in deep divide in that matter and both sides provide contrasting extremes of their views on the matter. The government urges the people to remain calm and denies any claim that the report unveils the truth about treatment of different ethnic minorities. Strikingly, the report provides a list of violations against humanity and human rights, targeted primarily at Aftokratorians. This includes withholding of services, extortion, threatening, robbery, discrimination involving great bodily harm and 120 other items contained, providing sources. NACA clarifies on page 643 point 2 the involvement and intricate network of top level politicians, including the leader of the department of Border Command, Kili Hammer, who is said to detain any Aftokratorians wanting to exit or enter Fauthur. The report also hints at Fauthurian involvement in recent oil spills and radioactive waste dumping in the Viatic Ocean. The Democratic Party is currently fighting back against the publishing and spreading of this report, detaining key journalists in the process. Further developments are unknown at this time, though a spreading sentiment of compassion, disdain, concern and skepticism, although in small numbers. Has the situation spiraled out of watchful eyes?

The what?.??.?.?of Fauthur Chapter 11

The Society of Fauthur Chapter 10 1.1 - Education Fauthur boasts an extensive education sector, with public and private schools clustered about everywhere you can think of. Comprehensive schools exist in a large number of cities, which combine every grade up until graduation with the highest possible educational degree that is not a university or college. The curriculum of all schools up to but not including colleges or universities are mandated by the government and can be influenced state by state. Universities and Colleges may have their own curriculums for classes, provided they are state and government approved. Yearly, xx% of the nation’s government budget flows into education, with the government striving to keep the population literate. The Educational sector of Fauthur is the most well-structured and invested social sector in Fauthur. The Educational System in Fauthur is structured into 4 Divisions of education. The first Division is pre-school, this is where children from the age of 3 go to, to get prepared for elementary school, which starts at the 6th year of life. Here, children mostly have free time, do activities that develop speaking, writing and basic math skills up to the number 10. It is common for pre-schools to have a break at 3pm in the afternoon to have a snack pause, including fresh fruits and vegetables and in the summers, ice cream. The Fauthurian government mandates a free lunch and at least 4 trips to educational facilities, such as museums or just the local forest, in close proximity to the pre-schools, in a year. The second division is elementary school, where children from the ages 6 to 12 go through a grade each year. Elementary in Fauthur lasts to the 6th grade, with children starting to learn the process of fractions. All elementary schools are mandated to have the following classes: Fauthurian Kalmash Maths General sciences Physical Education Religion or Philosophy Arts The most prominent class being “learning life”, where children are taught cooking, cleaning, general knowledge for dangerous places, behavior in society and social etiquette. Secondary schools touch on that subject again with more pressing matters. Most elementary schools have deviations, adding classes that aren’t mandated, like programming or basic level carpentry from grade 5 onwards. The third division is secondary school, which goes from grade 6 to 12, in which students can earn their first graduation diplomas. A drop out after completing the 10th grade is possible, with the lowest of all graduation diplomas, qualifying for entry level jobs and implementing a limit on how high you can get in a career. The mandated classes still apply, although in 8th grade, students can choose whether they want to learn (a prominent language tbd) or hone their existent language skills in a “mastery class” of Kalmash or Fauthurian. The “learning life” class now includes how to file taxes, do paperwork, proficiently fix car problems, as well as general knowledge for everyday problems and money management. From grade 10 to 12, students get to choose 2 “mastery class” classes from any class currently available in school. The “mastery class” from grade 8 needs to be exchanged, though it is possible to continue to take that “mastery class” as a 3rd “mastery class” Completing grade 11, students get the medium graduation diploma, qualifying students for colleges and letting students advance in their career with the addition of taking educational courses to advance. Completing grade 12, students gain the highest normal educational graduation diploma, letting them go to college, university and letting them advance in their careers indefinitely, as long as a higher education is not needed. Getting this graduation diploma is not an easy feat, as 6% of all students fail this graduation level and therefore is connected with a good starting prestige in society. Fauthur also has public and private universities and colleges, specializing in a plethora of topics and job directions, like applied sciences, education, health, research, which includes things like molecular biology, biology itself, bacterial research and everything connected with that. The most prestigious universities in Fauthur include: 1. The University of West Fauthur - which includes most of the specializations you can find in Fauthur. It is a highly sought after university, with elite criteria for admission. Thus, it is always difficult to find a free spot here 2. The Gelcc university of applied sciences - Situated in Gelcc, this university has the most comprehensible and extensive applied science study sector in Fauthur, and claims to be the most student friendly in all of Nur, as the student accommodations include a free 2 room apartment, free cafeteria lunch and dinner, and half the cost of a normal university. This is an exceptional university, fully financed by the government, and basically a small city itself with all services paid for, like going to the barber or going grocery shopping. 3. The Hefenium University of technology, research and computer sciences - bustling with activity, the government is trying to keep the programming standards at an all time high, while supplying only the most up to date computer systems Fauthur has to offer. It is also the location of Fauthurs main technological research division All in all, Fauthur and its citizen are really rich with educational possibilities and reachable schools, as experts say that the mean time needed to travel to a school is counted at 12 and a half minute. 1.2 - Health Fauthur maintains a universal healthcare system, which is largely financed by the national health insurance and is proud to be covering 100% of its population with the system. The national health insurance is free for children, students, pensioners, people with below average income, handicapped people, government employees. Fauthur spends xx% of its GDP on healthcare. The average lifespan is 75.3 years, with the leading mortality rate being respiratory infections, which 48% of the populace contract multiple times throughout their lives. The cause of this can be dated back to the rampant and unregulated industrial pollution, as well as lax climate regulations. Following respiratory infections, cancer is the second highest cause of mortality at 27%, followed by heart disease with ~10%. There are many disparities between northern and southern Fauthur, due to the vast industrialized regions in southern Fauthur. New since 5 years ago, the Fauthurian government has put a 50% sales tax on tobacco, to discourage people, especially the younger generation from smoking, as to regulate the high respiratory infection rate. It has been proven, that cigarettes facilitate the chance of getting a respiratory infection and reduce the strength of the immune system. The current government promotes the practice of keeping high tobacco tax and reducing tobacco sales, but is abstaining from banning tobacco, as it remains a large money making product, with 64% of the population actively smoking. Fauthur has around 2000 actively operated hospitals, with more being planned. There still is a widespread gap in some places, where reaching a hospital by car would take more than 45 minutes.

The Media of Fauthur Chapter 9 The invention of media, such as the first printed books and newspapers dates back to the year 850, when the printing press’ invention reached Fauthur. Starting off from that, and the rapid spread of delivery per carriage and even coast to coast mail, the news of the news spread and a year later, the whole nation was able to digest newspapers and wonkily mass printed books 2 days after they first came into the world. It was also 851 where Fauthur’s oldest newspaper company came into life, named “The New West”, stretching on till modern day. After that, media in Fauthur remained at that status for centuries, with the rumors of stuff happening slowly waining due to the prominence of newspapers. News outlets, media companies fluctuating, as many couldn’t hold out during the economic crises and the great mass hysteria period of 1154, as only the local state news outlets got the backing from the state to continue running, even in the most extreme of times. Thus, shortly before the turn of the 13th century, “The New West” was promoted by the then still monarchic government, to the first national Fauthurian news outlet, due to its perseverance, even when government backing was short and the devotion of the journalists to work full days for free and a bread as a wage. 1330, the first FM, non military broadcast swept from the south of Fauthur to the capital, West Fauthur and gave way to the distribution of FM radios to the public 2 years later, after refining the signal for clarity. 1335, the first transmissions from other continents (tbd, nation in search, dm me on discord for collaboration) reach the Fauthurian public, to be worked into the world broadcasting network. Radios quickly became a part of life, present everywhere. In parks, homes, at work, at the dentist, in aeroplanes and even soon in driving rustbuckets they call cars. It was revolutionary for news and entertainment, as the first music producers and publishing companies rose from the ground to retake old songs and put them into the radio for the pleasure of the people. Until the advancement of the television in Fauthur, there were 120 radio stations available for the public, blasting music, news and a plethora of other categories, such as story reading and monotone sounds 24/7. That number just increased as the television became ever more present in 1360, adding cable television and even color in 1367. Fauthur originally started out with “The Big Five”, these are the still present first five news broadcasting channels, along with the fifth being later converted to a normal channel, broadcasting TV-Series, trash TV and the normal morning, midday and evening news rounds. Building a good Television broadcasting Network in Fauthur, cost the government a fortune all for modernisation and the entertainment of the people, also seeing that Fauthur was and still is quite lacking behind on the Esferosian stage. Early 1400, the first satellite was launched into space for satellite television in Fauthur, more to follow up Over the years, with the incoporation of online TV channels, streaming services and generally the internet, which is now regarded as the main entertainment supplier, with some Fauthurian companies specializing solely in streaming services, totally lacking the functionality, and effectively replacing traditional TV channels. At present, there are 524 Fauthurian TV Channels for all needs, public private and streaming channels, as well as 157 Radio broadcasting stations and 400-700 news outlets, broadcasting and media companies and newspapers, be it locally, stately, nationally or internationally. The New West. Fauthur’s Main News Outlet and State operated Media!

The Sports of Fauthur Chapter 8 Sports in Fauthur are widely regarded as a fun pastime, with vast differences between regions. Sports, that Fauthur regards as national sports, are racing sports. These include Rallye, Rallye-cross, Formula Fauthur and rarely but on the rise: “everyday races”. These are racing including the everyday common car, modified for racing on streets and sometimes on the countryside. It is popular, because the “everyday races” racing series uses cars mostly used by the everyday Fauthurian, and even some retro cars. Fauthur has multiple Formula Fauthur teams, one of which, “Epsilon Fira Racing”, had made it to the Esferos F1 cup years ago and is still celebrated by the feat of reaching such a high ranking racing league. Additionally, Fauthur hosts drag races instead of horse races, but with modified, street legal cars. The only difference with that lies in the east, where sports like football, badminton and ice-hockey are part of everyday life and lived by many. At last, Fauthur has a very own sport originating from West Fauthur. It comes from a small village on the southern west coast, hosting a quadathon annualy, which was eventually picked up by native tourists and continued over generations. A Quadathon is like a triathlon, just different. It consists of 4 stages, which were originally: swimming, cycling, chopping a tree and lastly a 200 meter sprint. Winner is, who at the end has the least amount of time in total for finishing every stage. In modern day though, the swimming has been replaced by jet skis and the cycling stage has been replaced by Horsepower limited microcars. 1425 hosts the 265th Quadathon. WIP?

The Culture of Fauthur Chapter 7

Placeholder The Traffic and Transportation of Fauthur Chapter 6

Story 4 5th October 1424, It was a quiet night. Stars shone bright at the road in front of the column of cars driving through the quite battered foundations and sharp and jagged glass of one of the decommissioned military checkpoints that were instituted before liberation day. One might think it was just some ordinary commuters, making their way to and fro from work, to work or whatever was on their minds. After all, joyrides aren’t forbidden where they are, atleast in the Apoldäer district. On closer look, one could see they were driving close behind each other, license plates missing, rear lights broken, dimmed headlights. The only thing more peculiar than the rest of oddities intermingling with the whole picture, are the dimmed windows on each car. Almost black like the 4 floor of the next bunker over with no electricity. You could see nothing, especially not in the night, through the windows of these cars. A loud bang breaks through the ever grinding tyre noises echoing through the checkpoint. The line of cars abprubtly halts, the cars almost slamming into each other. All engines and lights diminish at once. Quietness. You could hear a pin drop on the sand from 10 meters distance. One minute passes. Then two. Three…. Four… On the fifth minute, exactly on the second, like timed, a black silhouette, resembling a tall, slim figure, dressed in all black with a fedora, emerges out of the repurposed Kalmachian Hendoff 3 car model, imported a limited amount. Once a beautiful carefully engineered car, now resembling a densely armored SUV with black metallic boxes on the sides of each door. Swiftly moving around the front of the car to the right side, he ducks down in a gentle way, inspecting something. Not the tyre, nor the chassis, something else. Something, that’s requiring the mans attention to the fullest. The once clear sky was now showing thinly cut waves of light grey clouds marching on the sky, west to east, the moon still shining through the blanket. A dim light flickered to life through the destroyed windows of one of the buildings, dying off 5 seconds later in a panic. Perhaps the wire was too old, rusted or something else. The man at the car, presumably done with his inspection, now jumped up in a hurry, bolting towards the house where the light came from. Whsipering could be heard getting louder, then auieter for a couple,e of minutes, rigorous suspense filling the air around the cars, no, the whole checkpoint. Suddenly, all quiet again, wind intensifying just right, that a flag would be waving for 3 seconds an intervall. A minute passes with suspense, darkening the checkpoint. One after the other, as if nothing happened, the cars roared to life, scattering through the whole checkpoint, driving off road, behind buildings, slowing down at each and every window and door, no matter how destroyed and ruined the place was. Engine sounds heard from everywhere, every point at once and gone again in a blink of an eye. The cars nowhere to be found, just tyre tracks remaining where the cars once were, bound to be covered by the incoming wind in a couple of hours. The only thing that can be found, is a lifeless but still warm corpse. No injuries or even a struggle detectable. A light grey shirt, with black pants and also black shoes, barely fitting, were laid folded next to it. On top of the clothes stack, a license. The license is slightly worn out, used to put into keycard holders, door openers, a long time ago. It reads, what is legible “Adr(non legible) G(non legible) Administrative division 3, ministry of in(non legible)nal affairs Rank 7 Security (non legible)” Now waiting for someone to discover it. Be it in an hour, in a day or a week.. Or simply, never. Story 5 Krüptiyd - A Fauthurian piece of folklore Exercise caution when going to sleep. Keep all your doors locked, all your windows as well, The Krüptiyd might have its place, Already found, Well beneath your bed, In your walls, In your basement, Or anything in between. Black as night, Jagged sharp teeth, Tall as a tree and, Spikes on it’s back, Protruding its skin, Tearing your flesh. Stalking from the trees, The bushes alike, Staring emotionless, Well on sight, Stays in the shadows, Following your guise, So it will know, Who needs to go. In the dead of night, At 2:34 at morn’, It will come, Don’t knock, Don’t make a sound, For it will get you, When you’re not around, In your sleep, Tightly in your bed. Wrap yer’ arms around, Muffle your screams, Helpess screamin’, Angers it. Close your windows, Close your blinds, Lock your doors, And look behind, ‘Fore you go to sleep, Just be sound, No one’s around, So the Krüptyid does nought enter your keep.

March 5th, 1425-West West Fauthur Halls It has now been 6 days since the Fauthurian edict to boost the economy was given. Sanctions from Zoran, Nouveauterra and Nalibia have already taken effect and are showing signs of weakening the Fauthurian economy slightly, as the sudden sanctions imposed, even by a few nations for now, are reaching far into already established processes of the country. Therefore, in a reactionary event, the government of Fauthur, mainly the congress, has urged Hafth to take a statement for the broader Esferos, and to take steps of preserving the economy. One bill is passed after the next almost in unison, as social reforms and environmental protection suffer in the light of stabilising the economy from coming sanctions. Preventive actions being taken. Now, on the midday of the 5th of the 3rd month of 1425, Hafth has once again spoken before the masses, before the greater eyes of Esferos, before leaders on their televisions and intelligence agencies, before Zoran spy satellites and all dissidents that care to watch and listen. “This hereby serves as an official statement from Kerglom Hafth, Head of Government, United Republics of Fauthur, democracy, national unity and unwavering loyalty.” Said his secretary and personal adivsor, Jenus Klett, as he stepped away from the microphone into the shadows of the much imposing flag banners hanging from the ceiling of the hall, making way for Hafth himself. “Hello citizens of Fauthur. With grave concern and misunderstanding, I hereby speak to you to present facts, rather than assumptions. Our situation on the economic front is turning bad due to unprecedented sanctions and embargoes from the countries of Zoran, Nouveauterra and Nalibia and more to follow. I tell you people, the democratic party stands for democracy, for a unified and honest Fauthur,” a brief pause before he continues to speak. “For a better world, future and diplomacy. These countries imposing sanctions on us, barring us from their economies, seizing our assets, is just aggression. Aggression without a base. They say we dump stuff into the ocean, only because the edict allows it. I assure you, we, as the people and government of Fauthur, have nought to do with such faceless and corporate controlled entities. We have done nothing wrong, we have abstained from doing anything to the oceans, to our precious waters, to the nature itself. The edict only says so for completeness, everything is stored in secure facilities on Fauthurian ground. And we for sure know, it’s the Aftokratorians, the Nalibians, the Nouveauterrans and the Zoranian people that accuse us of such vile acts, just to cripple our unity, our democracy and our economy. It is laughable that they have reports of Aftokratorian flagged vessels originating from our ports. We would never allow such vessels to enter our ports. We as the people, and I urge all of you, citizens of foreign lands, Fauthurian people, governments and other entities to see through their lies. To see, what they do to our country, to stand defiant against their warmongering practices and condemn and denounce their actions. For we have done nothing wrong. We have not officially, nor unofficially done anything to the pristine Esferosian water reserves, for we drink, for we fish, for we accumulate our precious resources from them. Thus, we won’t let them ruin our country. I say, let those sanctions come, let them defile our ways and truths, for we know, we are not doing anything wrong, we stand in defiance. Remember, for democracy, unity, and future!” As Hafth steps away, the crowd, captivated by his speech, is roaring, cheering and clapping. At the same time in the minister conference room, a resolution is drafted, a very own resolution, condemning the actions of embargoing nations on a faceless basis, lying to the public, in the name of democracy, closed to the public eyes and any technology, as it is written with pen and paper, sealed in a letter with a wax stamp and stowed away for future use.

Edict 1 27th February 1425 6:04 pm “Are you completely sure this will be a good idea sir? I mean, the environmental consequences would be astronomical. There- There’s just no way we can-“ “Yeeees I am sure. I’ve gone it through thousands of times with the Minister of National Security. There is no threats to be posed by the edict, only economical success and the betterment of our country.” “Sir, I must really insist. Either you go through it with the Ministry of EP and Greenery or there will be unforseen consequences. This is way too much. You can’t just throw everything into our rivers!” “Now now, calm down. I know what I am doing, besides what cinsequences can emerge from something like that? Our rivers are pristine I tell you…” A small suspense hang in the air around the office of Kerglom Hafth, Fauthurian Head of Government. The Walls beige, adorned with medals and placards of Mottos and Quotes of the Democratic Party. “Okay, you know what. I’ll go through with that damn ministry. Although, I don’t expect much.” Hail the lords, if there are any, thought Jenus Klett, personal advisor of Hafth. Visible relief showing in his face. Afterall, he has to be present day in and out during Hafth’s idiotic decisions and also helped avoid the one or other catastrophy. “Wait, I have a better idea, i’ll go consult with them later. What if we just dump all that stuff in the oceans? After all, it won’t do us much of a favor if it remains here in the country.” “I have to agree, anything better than here. Although please, i beg you, don’t involve any country or regions other than ourself if you have to do your statement. We can’t afford more international attention after that debacle with Aftokratoria lately.” “Don’t worry, it will all be handled excellently” A smug smile cut through his face. The meeting ended, both Hafth and Klett made their way towards the evening break, given to all government personnel from 6:30pm to 7pm. It was rather cold outside, maybe from the evening sun setting in, clouds standing before the uv rays of it. Shortly before the end of the break, an intermittent humming, shortly followed by a loud screech lit up the building. It was the PA system, always making you want to rip your ears off whenever it sounded. “All personnel with security clearance 8 and higher to room 282-b this instant” Security clearances are simple, the higher of a job you possess in the government, the higher your security clearance is. Security clearance 8 here refers to all present ministers and above. A quiet commotion, mumbling, whispering and even muffled laughter can be heard in the room once the whole workforce has materialized more or less quicky. “Ok gentlemen, as you may have heard, a big thing is in the works, the biggest one yet and I want to make clear with you all on this fine evening.” Present were the ministress of National Security, the minister of Infrastructure, the minister of EP and Greenery, the minister of Economy, Hafth, his advisor, and lastly , the minister of national and international shipping. An amalgamation of people that were to be notified about the edict, prior to it being announced. Conveniently, they all were assigned overtime a day prior, so any unnecessary people weren’t present. “It has come to my attention, that the economy is in dire need of an upgrade, an advancement of sorts. The ongoing reformation in the garbage sector, or whatever it’s called is stifling the opportunities to expand. We don’t know where to with the stuff we don’t need, and we can’t sell it either.” Bored faces were showing of the poeple there, already being home if it weren’t for the forced overtime. Glances being exchanged in between them. “So” Hafth continued, “it is necessary to take that stuff, and put it somewhere else, do you agree gentlemen?” Most ministers nod. “How are you going to get rid of it then, we can’t just dump it into our neighboring states just like that”, the minister of EP and Greenery came to word, almost bombing Hafth’s words out of the room. Quite ecstatic. “We talked about this, Hefning” Hafth said, in a tone of slight hate. He couldn’t stand that ministry and everything in and surrounding it. It is a thorn in his eyes, but sadly necessary for the democracy Fauthur wants to be, and he can’t change it as much as he wanted to. Yes, he’s democratic, wants the “best for the people” and all that stuff. Though, you could almost see nothing about the environmenvon the parties website or pledges. Most of all, Hafth hated Hefning, purely due to the name. He vaguely remembered someone with that name denouncing every act of his in the government, though, now six feet under due to old age. “We’re going to dump it where the sun don’t shine, kilometers under the sea. Swimming with the fishes if you will.” The commotion in the room gets louder, one gasp was audible for a second. “This is appalling, quite frankly. Ever thought about the animals living in the oceans? Ever thought about the environmental implications of this Endeavour, ever thought-“ Hefning was cut off, Hafth didn’t want to hear that piercing voice. Though, happy the Minister of Infrastructure cut him off. “This is for the best of our nation, the beet for the economy and a great relief for the “garbage sector” and the building capacity for the economy.” The minister of Economy nodded along, a slight smile. He wasn’t a man to talk much and noted everything down. One could muster he writes down almost too much for anyone to legibly read on one page, still he was concentrated and could read his notes. The minister of Infrastructure was quite the role model for the Ministry if Economy he thought. Maybe the should switch roles.. nonetheless, he’s taken a liking to Klaus Iop, minister of Infrastructure. “Right, exactly that” Hafth supports Iop. “Might I add, where do you want to take the capacity to sink all that stuff in the sea, it needs to be transported. I doubt we have enough ships ready for that- that hellish plan.” Hefning was mad as a bull, though he tries his best not to show it. It is unavoidable when talking that he gets very euphoric if a subject touches him. “Also, you know you can’t just pollute the oceans. The edict must be made public afterall. Are you not worried about the heavy international backlash this will cause?” The minister of national and international shipping, Hesur Fest, cuts in before Hafth can answer, much less to the delight of Hefning. “It has all been dealt with. We still got some obsolete freighters and ships from bygone times. Just a little cleaning, some adjustments and done are the garbage freighters. You know what, I love the sound of that.” Fest loses himself in daydreaming about ships. Ships and shipping and all that is naval always amazed him as a kid, he wanted to make that dream real, thus he’s now sitting here as one of the most important people of the country, with a pay that could drown someone in minutes if materialised. “A whole flotilla of garbage ships… great.. you kno-“ “And as for your other statement, Hefning. I have already been thinking about that, and we’ll just fly some aftokratorian flags, or flags from other places we don’t like, modify transponders or just completely cut out their comms equipment, no one will suspect it was us and all we can say is that these weren’t our ships. I know, the edict will be made public. But if we don’t officially do it, we never did it at all. We can just say that we dumped it in a landfill on a remote place for recycling and other purposes. Genius.” Hafth began to smile, as he was confident it would work, no matter Hefning being present. Hafth knew he could do nothing about it. As the clock struck 1 am, all ministers were dismissed, having had a glass of wine each… or multiple, one could not know. But one thing is sure, it wasn’t in the presence of Minister of Environmental Protection and Greenery, Hefning. As soon as the ministers were done talking, Hesur Fest, minister of national and international shipping sent forth the signal to repurpose a whole flotilla of garbage ships. It was 15 ships numbered. All rigged up with signal jammers and transponders thrown away. Most of them flying under Aftokratorian flags, some none and one ship flying under a still secretive flag, which will probably reveal itself later. One after the other, being packed with radioactive waste, bio wastes, scrap and other metals, heavy metals, chemicals and whatnot to make space for economic progress, they set sail in groups of 3 to the middle of the Viatic sea and in front of the Aftokratorian water boundary. “It is quite nice that no one governs international waters, it’s all free game” Hafth leans back in his chair, relaxing in the quietness of his office. No sound to be heard. Tranquility.

Fauthur - 1st March 1425 News report Hafth to pollute the world seas? In a turn of recent events, Kerglom Hafth, Head of Government has enacted an emergency edict to boost the economy. The edict allows for unregulated industrial waste dumping into landfills and rivers, aswell as oceans not inside our naval borders, this allows for a safe disposal of industrial waste originating from the only nuclear power plant in Fauthur, which had to previously store all their waste on site in a contained zone, eroding the ground and water in the immediate vicinity. The edict also allows for any industrial waste, that means textiles, colors, acids and non usable materials to be safely and eagerly disposed of, offshore. The primary locations for safe waste disposal is in the vicinity of Aftokratorian land, aswell as the middle of the Viatic Ocean. Hafth himself said in a statement: […] Nonetheless, the disposal of such waste won’t make any difference in the already polluted oceans in Esferos. Courtesy of the power hungry industries of Doll Guldur and Aura, aswell as wanted pollution from Aftokratoria. […] We will not have to worry about waste for a long time, the edict remains active until stated otherwise. […] This will bring much needed revitalisation and freedom for expansion in Fauthur, as the reformation of garbage disposal service on a communal and stately level still remains in the works. It also allows us to empty our existing landfills, without having to burn that stuff. But for now, we will not just simply dump it in the ocean, it will be brought to a single landfill for alternative use. We will not be dumping anything into the oceans.[…] Glory to Fauthur! A good democracy needs a good industrial base. Wether this will have unforseen consequences we will see, as the first small groups of environmental protestors collect themselves in several cities. This is the first emergency edict Hafth has issued since the election. Fauthurian law states, that the Head of Government holds the power of up to 3 emergency edicts to be used during the period they are elected. Emergency edicts only underlay direct command from the Head of Government, and the congress doesn’t get to have a say about it. Mainly, emergency edicts are reserved for utmost emergency situations, during times of crisis and national emergency. It is bery unusual to be used in this situation, especially now that the Ministry of National Security regards Fauthur as stable as ever. Also interesting is the addition of two whole continents in his statement. Wether that was meant serious, or just as an underlining fake fact remains to be seen. The ministress of National Security, f, denounces the involvement of any continents or other countries and regions except aftokratoria in Hafth’s statement. As of now, a plethora of convoys consisting of large freighters make their ways towards the equatorial line of the Viatic ocean and the north of Aukera as part of the edict. The Ministry of Industry, Infrastructure and Public Transport responded with the publications of large industrial zones in the west of Fauthur, adding to the existing industries of car manufacturing, furniture textiles and packaged and conserved foods, also planned is the expansion of the Klemming-Werks, which are located in Crast. This is a large industrial zone responsible for manufacturing spare parts, tools, mechanical machinery and every imaginable small part and device. In other news, the great Gelcc Alligator has been caught. During the recent….
