Kadurian News Biggest News of: May 14, 2017 New regulations have been announced to combat the Recession, with the new production technology being used to manufacture free products that are being passed out to those in need. The government is putting pressure on corporations to open up new jobs, which is a slow and stressful process. The president is asking that everyone remain calm, pointing at the destruction left by the Revolution as a reason to not let this crisis end like the last economic crisis. New Kadur has successfully taken over the job of the spacecraft construction, which has been stalled by the economic issues mentioned above. The project is proceeding more slowly however, due to the colony being unable to wield the same industrial and workforce power as Kadur usually can. The completion date has been pushed back a month or two, and that accounts for the Recession ending by June. The work is still going forward, but Kadur will have to wait longer for its first interstellar ship. |

Kadurian News Biggest News of: May 15, 2017 Today, a spacecraft returning from New Kadur has been hit by a micrometeoroid. There was no injury or loss of life, but the ship has been knocked off course when the fuel tank ruptured. The thrusters were able to steer the ship into a safe orbit around Urth, and a rescue vessel has been sent to rendezvous with it. More down to Urth, a small earthquake has been reported in southeastern Kadur Major (The main island). There is no serious damage, but it is surprising, revealing a small fault in the Southern Desert. |

Kadurian News Biggest News of: May 17, 2017 Today in the World Assembly, a new proposal on the regulation of tobacco is causing large amounts of debate in Kadur. Advocates for and against tobacco have reignited dormant disagreements on how to deal with it, with many using health and civil rights as reasons to support their views, among others. The advocates for tobacco on the grounds of civil rights were thrilled to hear that the government chose to have Kadur vote against the ruling, and many hope that Kadur's tobacco industry will help the economy recover. Continuing from yesterday, the Meldist March is starting to attract a lot of attention. Supporters of many different political and economic ideologies have decided to join the march, and try and draw support for their views. Police activity is starting to be stepped up, with many fearing riots and the birth of new ideological terrorist gangs like the ones that ran rampant after the Plains Revolution. |

Kadurian News Biggest News of: May 18, 2017 Good news today! Many across the country will be happy to be informed that the economy is beginning to stabilize! Today at around lunchtime, the Kadurian government issued a report that detailed noticeable improvements coming in the economy, with employment and consumption beginning to pick up again. Even with these improvements however, many are deeply concerned about another economic crisis, and the new economic theory of Meldism is starting to gain popularity. Speaking of Meldism, the March for Economic Reforms is occurring today in New Orston, with representatives of many ideologies and economic theories there. The Meldist part of the march was the most popular, reflecting the national attitude with it. However, many are suspicious of new reforms, convinced that the current system is the best one to stick with and that the Recession was a temporary problem. Most experts are agreeing that Meldism is going to be a hot topic during the election season, due to begin on June 5th. Up in space, the construction of Kadur's first interstellar spacecraft is proceeding well, with New Kadur able to shoulder the bulk of the job during the worst of the Recession. National polls have been collecting many final proposals for a name, with the three favorites being Voyager, Defender, and Atlantia. The ship is scheduled for completion near the end of the presidential campaign, and will leave on its first mission sometime in July or August. |

Kadurian News Biggest News of: May 19, 2017 Today, the news of the day is school! Parents and teachers in areas of the country are advocating for school uniforms to be established nationwide, with 43% of all Kadurian schools operating with uniform policies. Most of the opposition comes from a coalition of college students, who are claiming that school uniforms violate the Citizen's Rights Manifesto (For non-Kadurians who read this paper, it is a part of the Kadurian constitution that guarantees rights to Kadurian citizens within our borders). Protests and counter-protests are sweeping the country as many advocate for their point of view on the the subject. Experts predict that the issue will be part of the 2017 Election season, due to begin in early June. |

Kadurian News Biggest News of: May 20, 2017 BIG NEWS TODAY!! The Confederation is withdrawing from Urth, after an official end to Kadurian - Confederation relations. Leaders on both sides are stressing that it is a peaceful split, and that it is necessary for both sides. The mutual decision involves the Confederation leaving Urth's part of the galaxy on its own, and ends a relationship with the most mysterious organization that Kadur has ever known. The nature of the prior agreement involved Kadur supplying Urth materials and resources that the Confederation would not have access to (Such as Urth literature, information on its history, and samples of its "native" life) in exchange for technology and information about the outside galaxy. The agreement included the Confederation staying out of Urth's affairs (It didn't want to be used as a tool in war), and had Kadur act as the conduit of negotiations and contact. Some people were even speculating about the possibility of Kadur becoming a member of the Confederation, but that will certainly not happen now. A part of the agreement also says that Kadur would be permitted to keep the advanced technology and information, which alleviated fears of an invasion to reclaim "their" property. In short, the agreement is a peaceful split in relations, which allows both sides to keep most of the advantages they gained from it. OOC: This way, Kadur won't have an unfair advantage in any future RPs that I participate in. |

Kadurian News Biggest News of: May 21, 2017 Today, we have some...rather bizarre news. During some finals today, a female college student with the name Samantha Williams has apparently lost her mind. After leaving the classroom for what was seemingly a restroom break, she locked herself into the loo and refused to come out, saying that finals place unfair amounts of stress on students and that she would not come out until she was excused from them. After nearly two hours of a siege by security on the bathroom, she finally caved in and came out, with doctors saying that she is in fact mentally sound, and staged the entire action for media attention. |

Kadurian News Biggest News of: May 22, 2017 Today, a controversial new tax law has been announced. Taxes have been raised on the wealthy to improve the economy, which they are currently fighting with lawsuits. The Freedom, Equality, and Meldism Parties are all announcing support of it (To win the vote of the majority that made the law possible). Because of the economy expected to come into question during election season anyway, some upper-class members are vowing to fight the new law, hoping for support from other wealthy people. The effect of the new law is not known yet, but many are hoping that it'll improve the economy. |

Kadurian News Biggest News of: May 23, 2017 Today, disaster has struck in orbit. Literally. As construction continued on the starship in orbit, a piece of debris that was somehow not detected smashed into its hull. Two construction workers got killed in the impact, and a few others got minor injuries from the jolt (Sprains, bruises, that sort of thing). The damage seems to be only a small hull breach on the starboard bow, so construction is not set back that badly. Everyone working on the ship has been recalled to Kadur's space station (Attached to the scaffolding that encloses the half-completed ship), and the KSA determined that the debris had come from Myriad Station, destroyed months ago in the Four Day's War. Better safety systems have been planned, but people could easily add those two deaths to the list of casualties from the war. Edited by Kadur, May 23 2017, 07:49:54 PM.

Kadurian News Biggest News of: May 24, 2017 Today at the National Technology Development Laboratory (NTDL), scientists have been able to complete Kadur's first quantum computer. Nicknamed "Brainiac" (\_-.-_/), the computer is still very primitive. The scientists expect that more powerful ones will be built eventually, but this one is barely capable of calculating three squared. The next generation should be finished in a few years, and might be ready for tentative use. |

Kadurian News Biggest News of: May 25, 2017 Today, a prominent Kadurian economist has publicly announced a prediction that has many Kadurians worried. After reviewing the data on Kadur's economy for the last few years, he's predicted that the recession could turn into a depression if we are not careful. And what could ultimately doom our economy is the very thing that many say could save humanity. Asteroid mining. This is how he explained it. Basically, the new technology that was purchased from the Confederation has allowed for space travel to become much cheaper in many ways. This has allowed asteroids to be mined of their resources for a profit. According to law, the government of Kadur is not permitted to claim asteroids for any reason. However, this does not stop corporations from doing so, and mining the resources of those asteroids. The concern is that those raw materials will overwhelm the markets, causing saturation and a bust as the price falls. Due to this concern, the government is working to overcome this and prevent this problem from striking, so that our already fragile economy doesn't completely go belly-up. |
