This exercise is a testament of what we can gathered united, an attack on one, no matter how small, will be counted as an attack of all this.

Breaking News: Mass violence strives up in Jötungrad, Helslandr!

After only four days since the death of Former Lord Commander Telve Kvirkdelen has the first sign of political violence occured in Helslandr. After several days of debate within the Helslandr’s legislature, the Commander Assembly, Steinler Osgvelder was announced as speaker of the assembly, only for some hours after for him to be shot by radical nationalist within the assembly. After which several assembly members started fighting among themselves with it only ending after a late arrival of the police and security. Around 40 people has been arrested by the police with majority of the arrested having connection to the far right neo-hirdist paramilitary, the Iron Front. According to the police 5 people was killed and around 30 people having been fataly wounded during the fighting within the assembly. Though only few hours after the fighting was finnished did violence from the assembly spread into city itself. As the leader of the Iron Front, Tirlid Kvirkdelen, the brother of the now gone Telve Kvirkdelen, announced during Helslandr News on live TV, that his organisation shall commit to a “National Revolution” and to “cleanse Helslandr from imperialist and degenerate influnces”. In which Tirlid blamed the situsation and death of his brother on the monarchist leader, Ylva Kattdalen for “tainting” Telve Kvirkdelen. In which he also announced his commitment to getting rid of the nekomimi, in which he called “pests”.

Soon after violence accross Jötungrad commenced in which terrorists acts towards the police, and nekomimi communities alike sprung up. With the announcement of Tirlid’s national revolution it is unlikely a united provinsal goverment can be formed while keeping the nationalist in it.

Certain Civil War seem imminent, lets hope Tirlid’s ideology of “National Revolutinarism” does not spread towards it neighboring countries.

We shall update you on the situsation as it continues…

Breaking News: Meremaa gains a new foreign minister

Date: 20th August, 2021

Earlier today after an interview by Osfjord Times, Svende II of Kaladeirde, an local duchy within Meremaa, stated that Grand Duke Njord II requested him to become foreign minister of Meremaa. In which Svende stated he took the offer after carefull consideration, stated the following:  “Despite my political disagreements with the grand duke, it is significantly important that my nation above all else, is united and not fall into the dealy trap of becoming divisive. Meremaa is a nation that I shall ensure to the world, shall stay strong and united despite all odds.”

Many has questioned if Svende II’s political ideology that has played significant part of his popularity not only with members of the nobility within Meremaa but also the common man will play as a signficant role in his foreign policy. In his book; “Rights of Civilisations.” he stated his clear political biases and oppinion in the introduction to his book in which the following was stated: “I will make my biases quite clear, I despise organisations like the IF. Not because the idea itself, but because it very much only helps the established powers. It stops smaller powers that is within their duty and right as civilisations to expand, which has proven to be the only true way they can secure themselves from larger opposing nations. These international institutions, is simply tools from the status quo built by superpowers. Those who already expanded and got what they wanted. So they now want to create rules, and stop expansions. Since it benefits them. The IF exists to create peace, that peace however, is only helps furthering the geopolitical status quo which benefit the superpowers.”

His political views gained such a following in Meremaa that some has dubbed it its own ideology called “Svendism.” which been called to be a nationalistic, economicaly liberal and a constitutionalistic ideology.

Some has put fears if the decision of Svende as a foreign policy minister might renew tensions between Meremaa and MBE over Dalamaghar, despite agreements that was written only a year ago.

Though Johanna also ensured that economic cooperation shall also be on the table of negotiations during the meeting. Many economists stated they are intrested in seeing how the talks between Johanna and Areuina go on that front, with it being well know both nations are important trading partners. With New Leganes being nation Norgsveldet imports the most oil and gas from, with New Leganes also being place of where many Norgsveltian businesses within manufacturing come to for production and assembly thanks to New Leganes being very business friendly nation for many of these Norgsveltian businesses, especialy within shipbuilding and automotive industries. in which Norgsveltian cars are very populare in New Leganes. The Norgsveltian arms industry is also populare within New Leganes, with Norgsveltian made corvettes being used by the Cukish Navy. Cukish multinational conglomerate corporation Sami is also very populare within Nyveldet, mostly thanks to medias such as video games and entertainment industry. Being seen working together with local media companies in Nyveldet.

The agricultural and lumber industries within Nyveldet also seen on the decline, many politicans within Nyveldet hope that the talks between the two prime ministers would end up with much needed investments into these two industries. With also the epectations that the meeting might make movement between Nyveldet and New Leganes even easier, which would increase tourism in both regions something many would see as important to developing and diversifying the economies of Nyveldet and New Leganes, with tourism being seen as a way for New Leganes to be less reliant on its petroleum industry and for Nyveldet its reliance on its lumber and agricultural industries. With the two cruise companies of Nyveldian Royal Cruise Line and Matrelíkia RS being combined together in 2019 to form Nyveldian-Matrelíkia CL, or its branding name NyMa, having massively increased tourism in the region, it is hoped that in the future that it will become major centres of tourism Urthwide.

Our Commonwealth is a certain ally and free market for the Norgsveltians and their businesses, and so is Norgsveldet for the Cukish companies and citizens. Our economies have always grown together, and so they will do with the talks and agreements reached in this meeting.”

Breaking News: Blåskog faces international criticism over foreing policy decision

Date. 6th December

In recent meeting in Månlan, Noraida, the foreign policy minister of Blåskog, Sgirun Kormat and Grand Marshal of Noraida, Argv Caer agreed on their two nation working together towards a common approach to a national resettlement program in which their two nations shall work towards moving people within Zrei elven and tiefling communities between their two nations. In effort to “right the wrongs of the past” and “working on a common future”. When asked what the two had in mind to further this goal, Argv Caer responded that the two nations was going to follow parts of the plan called Plannen Over Nasjonal Forveksling (The Plan of National Exchange) or shorten to PONF, a plan made by the current leader of AFP, Jori Torinson, an well known elven supremacist politican in Blåskog. The orginal plan stated that a proposed population exchange between Blåskog and Noraida, in which the Zrei elven community in Noraida was going to be moved to Blåskog while the tiefling population in Blåskog was going to be moved to Noraida. According to Jori, the plan would include finacial compensation to those who was reluctant to move, but he never specified what would happen to those who refused.

The plan was non-suprisingly criticised not only in Blåskog, but also internationaly. As such it has come to a shock to many leaders over this agreement between the two countries, in which Sgirun was quick to write in pigeon in response of the international reaction: 

Though despite this pigeon post from the foreign minister of Blåskog, it has not lessen the concerns over the agreement. Within Blåskog leaders of several political parties has demanded this agreement stopped, with few politicans calling for a vote of no confidence to be pushed into parliament, but one very unlikely to win with the goverment in Blåskog having a super majority. Eyjarian Prime Minister, Kjolf Bardsen, has stated if this agreements gets enacted in Blåskog, then he will push for Blåskog to be ejected out of the NCEF. Though Johanna Sverdrup, has also condemning the agreement stating it would cause a “tragedy not just for Blåskog and Borea, but for the world.” she has yet to state any willingness to do put forward diplomatic action towards Blåskog. Many tiefling community within Norgsveldet has demanded that the goverment must pressure the two nations to stop the agreement before its too late. Tiefling movements within Meremaa, Tangrland and other nations across Urth has demanded diplomatic pressure on Blåskog to be enacted.

It remains seen if this would change the diplomatic situsation in Borea over this topic, while WBF and Aduraszna has heavily condemned this agreement, with Foreign Minister of Aduraszna Lora Kaltehan, having had heated discussion with Sgirun Kormat on pigeon, stating the following: “Nobody’s falling for this bullshit. The only thing you’re doing For Your Communities is burning them to the ground. We are well past “concerns” - the ethnic cleansing in Blåskog and Noraida is a violation of every sapient rights treaty out there.” Later encouraging people to seek asylum to Aduraszna. Though despite that it is uncertain how other nations in Eastern Borea would react to it, Rikevaarland’s leader Reile Henretedotur, stated she would wait until the agreement between Blåskog and Noraida is enacted before making condemnations towards the two nations.

It is expected that more nations going to be quick to follow up with condemnations. This and Blåskog having stated they been working on developing nuclear weapons, as put many to be certain Blåskog will face swift criticism from the International Forum, and even sanctions.

While the Norgsveltian navy and Eyjarian navy, with help of other UCA partners will blockade the nationalists.

Breaking News: Olav I response to Sebastian II’s condemnation.

Date: 14th December, 2021

Only hours after the goverment announced a full UCA intervention into the Helslandr Civil War, the king of Casilló y Réal, Sebastián II, condemned the UCA but especialy Norgsveldet over the intervention in which they called “neo-colonialist”. After the condemnation King Olav I was quick to respond to the condemnation.

“It is quite sadden that Sebastián II seemingly can not see the difference in stopping terrorists who is doing a genocide and actual imperialism. We sent troops to intervene because the borders of our allies are unsafe. In July, 100 Norgsveltian soldiers died fighting nationalists forces who spilled over into Pledonia. Then much later a terrorist attack lead by the nationalists was done in Pledonia. How much longer would it take if it was Nakosa? Or Southern Coast? Or even, Eyjaria who was condemned as well which there only is a small boat distance from Helslandr? How many terrorist attacks and outspills would have to happen before someone say enough is enough? That intervention is needed. Hell what about just mere fact the nationalists are doing a genocide? I hope King Sebastián II would understand that if no body does anything, more innocent people would become corpses. The more heavier this all should be on ones conscience. I have a nekomimi wife and daughters, the more I heard about the attrocities the nationalists was doing towards the nekomimi, the more I was reminded of them? Now tell me, am I an “imperialist” because i have a heart? That I decided Tirlid had to be stopped once and for all? If so I don’t see how. We not making Helslandr a puppet, the goverment that hopefully will be formed after nationalists are destroyed is going to be one made of Royalists and republicans. The people of Helslandr.”

Johanna also reportly made some comments, though we have not been avaible to get in contact with her to ask if it actualy was Johanna. “They are utter f****** idiots! We are defending an ally from people that wants to unify all of Vestrava, and WE are the bad ones? Pledonia was a member of NCEF and UCA, our ally, we have every reason to go in to protect them! But no i guess for King Sebastián, its better to do nothing and have a stick up our a**”

Though Johanna yet to make an offical statement, the minister of Foreign Affairs, John W. Vultz, has stated they recalling their ambassador from Casilló y Reál, for the time being. Stating “One thing is condemning our actions to protect an ally. Another is calling it imperialistic, but avoid calling real imperialistic and aggressive actions by other nations for that. It shows they either not been following world wide events, or simply have double standard to call all military actions they don’t like for imperialistic.”

Breaking News: Rikevaarland asks for military aid to crush incurection

Date: 19th January, 2022

In a recent turn of events, city of Teieleie has been completly overwhelmed with socialist incurectionists after the violent police crack down on the 12th of January having forced the peacefull labour protesters into a full on revolution. Though death count is uncertain as of now, video footage has shown hundreds of police being killed after gun fight with protesters. Though orginaly started with simple hunting rifles, new footage has shown the protesters turned incurectionists having gotten military grade equipment. Orginaly started as a simple demand of more labour rights, the leader of socialist movement in Teieleie, Torik Rødatter, has stated they now demanding Teieleie gaining full independence from Rikevaarland stating that: “The men and women of the Directorat Council, has never cared about the plight of the working man in Teieleie nor in rest of Rikevaarland for that matter! Let the people of Teieleie decide their own future, away from the greed of the council.” 
City-Governor Cyran Teieleie having been reported fleeing the city in his private boat, as the protesters stormed the City-Governor palace inspite of the federal goverment having sent its council guard to crush the incurection with little success as the incurection having been avaible to blow up the few armoured vehicles that was sent along side it.

This has caused concern in region that either a goverment or organisation having armed the incurectionists with further military scale equipment, in which Council-President Reile Henrete having announced an offical blockade on Teieleie and has called for members of the Compact of Free Borean States and Associated Governments to help with crushing the incurection.

The situsation has gotten large regional attention with Prime Minister of Eyjaria, Kjolf Bardsen, having proposed that peace talks between Rikevaarland’s goverment and the incurectionists to be held and suggesed that Eyjaria can act as the mediator.  With the goverment in Pledonia given its diplomatic support to the proposal. Torik Rødatter has stated he is willing to hold peace talks, while Reile Henrete has been reported to state that Eyjaria should “keep their fingers out of Rikevaarland”, with some members of Directorat-Council having even accused of arming the incurectionists. Which Eyjarian goverment has denied with vigor.

King of Blåskog, Carl IX, has stated its full support too the goverment in Rikevaarland and stated further that “While the prime minister of Eyjaria means well, this is not an issue they can get involved in. This is an Borean issue, that can only be solved by Borea.” It been later reported that Blåskogian soldiers of 3,000 troops been mobilised to be sent towards Rikevaarland.

The Federation of the Southern Coast, in comparison has stated its political support to the protesters which has not wavered as the protesters turned incurectionists. When asked about the topic, Prime Minister Jeanne Pierre gave simple statement saying: “The plight of the worker will not be ignored.”

Johanna Sverdrup has however refused to comment on the situsation.

We shall update the situsation once more information can be given.

Breaking News: Grand Duke in Blåskog speaks up against the goverment

Date: 20th January, 2022
In other news the Grand Duke of the autonomous region Vestskog within Blåskog, Harald IV, has stated his opposition of the goverment’s PONF plan, which seeks for an “population exchange” between Blåskog and Noraida. In which he also made it clear that within his authority, Vestskog will not enact the goverment’s plan. This has come forward after Blåskog has enacted parts of the plan in which housing prices and electricity prices has increased in tiefling dominated communities, which many see as the goverment’s way to make resettlement into Noraida more favourable. Though it is reported several thousands have already migrated to Noraida, with it being estimated around 15k has moved since the announcement of the plan by the foreign policy minister of Blåskog, Sgirun Kormat, announced it on the 6th of December of the previous year.

Prime Minister of Blåskog, Hilda Stenberg, has stated her disapointment of Harald IV’s words and claim that the Grand Duke does not hold the authority to oppose this plan. In response to the prime minister’s statement, a video footage from the Grand Duke was put on Pigeon, on him holding a speech.

“There is a woman alone, without family, without children, without any god to follow. She builds hate, but doesn’t build a nation. Our nation was created by families, a religion and tradition. We are made up of the hearts of our mothers, the wisdom of our fathers, the joy of our children, no matter which species those mothers, fathers and children might be they helped making our nation. Blåskog under Stenberg is an state without dignity, and to her own benefit. A woman, who, alone, enacts this plan, has no god to honor, nor does she correct our past mistakes. This woman could bring us as much victories for our nation as she may want, but those victories mean nothing if our dignity is lost. Instead of building a nation of poets, musicians and artists, which Blåskog was in the past, she rather wants to build a nation of hysterics and hermits, which are led by a thousand liars and fanatics. May we find a new prime minister that our king can consult, since at this current moment. I am shameful to call myself a Blaskovian.”

Breaking News: Johanna Sverdrup, urges calm over Project Star Kindle.

Date: 16th January, 2022

At 05:00, the Federation of the Southern Coast, unveiled their nuclear capabilties, an announcement made by the Prime Minister of the Southern Coast, Jeanne Pierre. During which she reassured the world the nuclear weapons is for defensive purposes only. Though reassured was not how many nations felt, including Southern Coast’s neighbors, such as Pledonia. Whose president announced that if the Southern Coast continues building its nuclear capabilities, it have no other choice but request Norgsveltian nuclear missiles to be placed in their country. With many condemnations, and fears coming across the globe over this recent development many fears an excalation of tensions between the Southern Coast and Vistaraland will erupt into a full blown nuclear war.

At 15:00, prime minister Johanna Sverdrup urged calm over the situsation and has asked the two prime ministers of Vistaraland and Southern Coast to hold offical diplomatic meeting in Eyjaria to once again try to mediate the tension between the two nations. Stating that: “With the recent reveal of the Southern Coast’s nuclear capabilities, we now seeing a rising of tension between the two that has not been seen in scale since the Guilder’s Strait Conflict in the 1980s. As such, we urges calm, and urge the Southern Coast too stop its development. If the Southern Coast continue this, then the consequenses will destabilise an region already filled with conflicts.”

When we asked Jeanne Pierre at her announcement if she had notified Norgsveldet about the project before the announcement, in which she stated that the Norgsveltian crown was directly notified at same time as rest of the world was. As a crown realm nation, several nations under the Crown Realm like that of Eyjaria has requested extra unordinary meeting between all the goverments in the Crown Realm at the 30th January. His majesty, King Olav I has accepted this request and stating “We must ensure calm in these troubled times, I would like to have personal meeting with Miss Pierre, and listen to her concerns about Vistaraland and question the need of nuclear weapons. As much it must be painfull to hear, Vistaraland’s Empress Marium I is closely related to I. I have my best wishes to both nations, and like prime minister Sverdrup, I urge mediation.”

Breaking News: Axdel withdraws from Puntalian Compromise Treaty

Date: 11th February 2022

In shocking change of events the Federation of Axdel, a nation in Western Aurora has proclaimed their withdrawel from the Puntalian Compromise Treaty, a treaty that was put into affect 10th July 2020 as the result of the Puntalian Crisis, in which the Axdel goverment cited the failure of the treaty to normalise the geopolitical situation of South Arcturia. As well as calling out the major powers that appeased the South Acturian dictatorship in Rodenia. This is seen as a massive change of policy from Axdel which many conclude as the result of economic intrests. The Axdelian President, Diego Corbinn, also requested the Rodenian goverment to let Puntalia and New Puntalia to become one state, for Rodenian military bases in Puntalia to be disestablished and suggested the leader of Rodenia,  Kirk Santon to resign his post.

These requests was also soon followed up with the Axdelian Armed Forces announcing the redeployment of its Axdelian West fleet with it being prepared for blockade or other military actions.

Prime Minister Johanna Sverdrup has stated her vocal support of Axdel’s withdrawel and stated that: “Norgsveldet shall also withdraw from that cursed treaty in solidarity with Axdel and we demand Rodenia leave its military out of Puntalia and demand Rodenia’s puppet goverment in Puntalia to fall. Puntalia shall be united.”

After her speech several ships from the Norgsveltian South Concordian Fleet has been ordered to redeployed to Southern Acturia, with many military experts thinking as a way to put pressure on Rodenia’s western coast.

Breaking News: Axdelian Ultimatum has been delivered

Date; 14th February 2022

Yesterday night the Axdelian goverment sent series of demands to the Rodenian goverment, in which Johanna Sverdrup have stated her full support in. The main demands made is that the two Puntalias will be reunited into a single democratic country again, and that the Lima y Limon islands be returned to the unified state. It also mandates that Rodenia permanently disestablish its military bases in the Reunified Puntalia, withdraw all military personnel and return any requisitioned equipment or materiel to the unified state.

The demands have gotten wide range of support among the Norgsveltian public though some has stated their disapointment that it doesn’t demand Kirk Santon be desposed, while others claiming the demands are unrealistic. Though polling showed over 70% of the public support military action against Rodenia, a signficant increase after the terrorist attack on the Norgsveltian embassy in Lokania. Prime Minister Johanna Sverdup having stated that she got the acceptance of his majesty to send the NCIS to help the Lokanian goverment in inteligence gathering and matterial support to deal with the terrorist organisation, the White Hand.

The leader of the nationalist party, FP, Erik Vederveld was one of the first to orginaly criticise the Prime Minister of pulling out of the treaty, has now backtracked on his words stating: “While Sverdrup’s decision to pull out of the treaty was rushed, it is now clear to my party that Santon’s ideology of ultracapitalism is now harming all of Southern Acturia, if allowed to fester it can global consequenses.”. Though the party leader has seen large decrease in his party’s January’s oppinion polling which put his party in only 4,5%, which decrease by 2% since the oppinion polling in December, and 4,04% since the election in 2020. Many put this as a result of Vederveld’s recent switching of positions in his oppinions, but also with the rise of the socialist party, PWP, which unexpectetly went over the electoral threshold in the 2020 election winning 25 seats in the parliament. If the elections was held today the PWP would be twice the size of the FP. The prime minister’s party, NCP rose to 31,1% an increase from the December oppinion polling, but still quite low compared to its electoral result in 2020.

When party leader of LNP, and current finance minister Carl Agnar was asked about the current situsation in South Acturia he stated that: “We tried every economic and diplomatic measures we could do, Rodenia has not buckled. If conflitct happens, its on Rodenia’s hands.”. Which was later echoed by the minister of foreign affairs, John W. Vultz who also gave a stern warning towards Packilvania that “Escalating this further will not be in Packilvanian intrests, we not asking Rodenia for much and if Packilvania increase their hostility towards us or Axdel it will be met with equal hostility. Stop your support to Rodenia.”, in which he also warned that further sanctions from the NCEF may come towards Packilvania if they continue on. In which economic experts state will have some economic consequenses for Packilvanian industry.

Minister of Defence, Ragnar Hammerskjold, stated in a press conference that Norgsveltian ships from the Southern Fleet has arrived to South Acturia and shall cordinate with Peregan naval vessels in the Peragian Sea and also cordinate with Axdelian naval vessels along East of Rodenia. Though no military action has yet to be announced until an answer to Axdelian ultimatium has arrived. He furthered stated that “We are prepared to take any actions deemed necessary.”

Rodenian Crisis, is Morstaybishlia at fault?

An oppinion piece by, Merli Cirivele.

Date: 19th January, 2022

Wars have unintended consequences, which rarely turns out the way our leaders tell us they will do. Which also has inherently ruins the lives of the working class, as they often the first to be sent to war. It is why I pray that the current crisis in Rodenia is avoided by diplomatic means so that we can avoid a destructive war in Southern Acturia. However, despite this, it does not mean we should settle for an inherently negative peace that again and again appease fascists or theocratic states that wants to overturn a rule based order. We cannot ignore that there is one man to blame for the current situsation; Kirk Santon.

This crisis has its orgin in Puntalia, one that was started by Santon ordering Rodenian troops into Puntalia over a “communist plot” to overthrow the Puntalian Goverment in 2020. With Puntalia being an UCA member, the UCA despite all its faults had every right to force Rodenia out of Puntalia by force. With the Rodenian goverment back then rufusing to fall back, UCA and NSTO was readying themselves for an intervention. However, because of Morstaybishlia and Packilvania involvement which inherently made them give validation to Rodenia’s false claims of a communist plot. Forcing the coalition against Rodenia to sign a treaty which compromised Puntalia’s sovereignthy, appeased Rodenia and gave Packilvania further foothold in Southern Acturia. Some might question why UCA signed the treaty if they did not agree with it, but fact matter is that through Morstaybishlian and Packilvanian involvement, not doing so could escalate what should been a regional conflict to global conflict.

As such despite claims that Johanna is a warmonger, which she is, during the orginal Puntalian Crisis it was MBE and Packilvania involvement that chose to escalate it, in which UCA chose to back down in a crisis started by Rodenia. As such, the Puntalian Compromise Treaty that now lays useless, can be truthfully blamed on Morstaybishlia’s involvement through the leadership of Franklin Barvata which was willing to settle for a negative peace, one that gives Rodenia and their hedious actions validation.

Though I can not agree with Johanna’s and Axdel’s Diego Corbinn attitude on solving this militarily, the actions of pulling out of the treaty is one i fully support. If Morstaybishlian goverment wants to avoid a war in Southern Acturia, their resolve should not be on limiting Norgsveldet’s and Axdel’s actions but rather to pressure the Rodenian and Packilvanian goverments to follow the demands being given to allow a united Puntalia once more. It is clear if the current crisis is to be solved by diplomatic means, and not one through troops on the ground, Morstaybishlia must take a stance against Rodenian and Packilvanian illegal actions. Economic and diplomatic measures to ensure a unified Puntalia, can not happen with out the involvement of Morstaybishlia. If Morstaybishlia rather choses neutrality, and to keep its business and trade relations with Packilvania and Rodenia then I can not see for me any other way that this crisis will not result to war.

Prefering peace, does not mean one should prefer a negatice peace which is the absence of tension and justice. We all should strive for a peace that shall have the presence of justice, since at the current moment MBE has chosen the former not the later.

Breaking News: The Asendavian and Norgsveltian diplomatic meeting in Vakrestrender

Date: 18th February 2022

It seems the goverment’s diplomatic efforts been successful with Asendavia after a meeting between Norgsveltian and Asendavian diplomats in the Norgsveltian Crown State territory of Vakrestrender located east of Aurora. The meeting started at the 10:00 and kept going for several hours, with the Vakrestrender prime minister Ingeborg Hove having welcomed the diplomats at the airport and was observing the meeting itself. Though despite that there was protests in the capital city of Vakrestrender, Vakkerhavfruebukt, against the Asendavian representetives for their nation’s sapiant right abuses though the numbers is uncertain reports state there was several thousands of protesters.

The topic of the meeting itself having drawn large international attention as it was announced beforehand that it would be about the current crisis in Rodenia that day by day seems to increase chances of war as the Rodenian Goverment has yet to accept the Norgsvetlian and Axdelian demands to withdraw from Puntalia. Many is convinced that the attempt of the meeting itself was for Norgsveldet to try get Asendavia involved which during the Puntalian Crisis back in 2020 gave their support to the UCA. Though according to the offical statements from the diplomats it was agreed that Asendavia will only intervene incase of Packilvanian military intervention to back Rodenia. With both sides writting a offical legal agreement over the topic, and stated it would ensure as a deterence factor to limit the possibility of Packilvania intervening militarily. The Norgsveltian head diplomat at the meeting, Toriki Hagelstad, stated that the meeting was a “great success” and that the ties between Norgsveldet and Asendavia has “never been stronger”.

Though the topic had also secondary topic in which was to ensure continued Asendavian investment into the islands of Vakrestrender mainly in Vakrestrender’s large tourism industry and the Norgsveltian animation industry on the islands. With many of Norgsveldet’s animation studios like Studio Ragner, having set up their head quarters on the islands. With the expecation that Norgsveltian and Asendavian animination studios might work more closer together in the near future. Some economic experts think this is the goverment’s attempt to counteract Morstaybishlian economic influnce on the islands, with the goverment also been successful to ensure further NCEF investments into the islands, mainly in infrastructure and its jewelry industry.

In other news Prime Minister Johanna Sverdrup stated to a reporter while she was getting on a privat jet that she was going to go to Axdel to meet with their president, Diego L. Corbinn. Though she has noted stated much about the topics that will be discussed many do wonder if the meeting will just be about the current Rodenian Crisis or if Johanna is planning to go further about the meeting. Many have suggested that she might have the goal to increase inteligence cooperation between the two nations and perhaps establishing more military contracts with Axdel such as during 2008 when the Axdelian goverment bought the Norgsveltian made Havdjevel Class submarines which brought ire from Morstaybishlia. Though so far Johanna has simply stated that “I am commited to further Norgsveltian and Axdelian cooperation over the current confrontation with Rodenia.” The prime minister also made a clear remark towards the Packilvanian goverment that Packilvania and members of its royal family could see further sanctions from the Norgsveldet, if Packilvania continues to support Rodenia. Which has further the fears of a trade war between NCEF and Packilvania.

We shall keep you updated as the situsation continues.
