News Entry: WAR!

By emperordaniel,

WAR! by Rupert Apatax RGNS Mousford, one of 8 naval vessels being sent to Ruteria MARSBURGH, GRAND- Civil war has erupted in the Kingdom of Ruteria following months of unrest across the country.

The state-owned company, Imperial Oil, has only...

Forgia ceases relations with Malo by Amy Higgins Flag of the Kingdom of Forgia APELKOS, MAL- Following a six-month diplomatic stand-off, the Kingdom of Forgia has withdrawn all diplomats from Grand and Malo and closed its embassies there. Relations between Malo and its eastern neighbor Zebtesia have always been bad since 1951, when, as the Great Adonian War was coming to a close, Forgia and Zebtesia, another country on Malo's northern border, invaded what was a much larger Malo back then and took over...

Yesterday, the plane carrying the members of the International Simlympic Committee landed at Francistown International Airport for the 18th ISC Session. Here you can see the airplane on its final approach. Outside, a convoy of specially-chartered taxis was waiting for them. After a brief tour of the city, they went to the various hotels that were to accommodate them, just as the sun began to set beyond the hills in the distance. The next day, President Slacker and the other ISC member who was staying in...
