Breaking News: Gravestones of former politicians and doctors vandalized by signs. Third Abortion Clinic destroyed.

Numerous graveyards across mainland Norgsveldet and Nyveldet have been vandalized, specifically the gravestones of former pro-choice politicians, abortion doctors and pro-choice activists. Gravestones of politicians and pro-choice activists being covered in a red-glue like paint mixture onto their graves. The doctors received a special treatment of red-glue paint and a sign with a number of abortions operations the doctor processed.

The third abortion clinic being destroyed was in Nyveldet in the Akuan district there. With a similar style of destruction as previous attacks on clinics. With no witnesses or security cameras being online during the attack at the time. However this time, the ringleader of the attack brewmaster Ny’Friz was arrested with discovery of the various supplies used in the attack being found within their apartment building in a police raid into their apartment.

The arrest of the brewmaster Ny’Friz led to widespread protests in Nyveldet, with large demonstrations of Akuanists marching against arrest in the region’s capital, Werby. Numerous Akuan figures spoke out against the arrest, with some suggesting that the Fatherland Party is targeting the religious minorities in Nyveldet including Akuanists, citing the previous comments the Administrative President stated about the Tiefling riots.

With Ragnar Torsteinson having to deal with the continued riots in Ånslan and Duarlan, while protests from Pro-LGBTQ, Pro-Farmer and Pro-Akuan organizations within Nyveldet at the same time having led to many question his continued leadership as the region’s Administrative President. Fatherland Party’s leader Erik Vederveld has stated that Torsteinson’s continued presidency is going to be brought up in the party meeting next weekend.

Prime Minister, Wilhelm Kirkeland, stated in a video to Pigeon that: “I condemn any usage of violence, even if I sympathize with your causes. I urge every citizen to have tolerance towards your fellow citizens, no matter species, gender or political affiliation. And I must mention, do not vandalize graves. It is completely disrespectful and horrible actions of any group to do, which I condemn in the strongest possible degree.”

The prime minister had a piece of cake attached to his cheek, as it became known to us that Mister Kirkeland was celebrating his 57th birthday with his family. Which has included his eldest daughter, Emila Kirkeland, who is the leader of the Labour Party’s Youth Wing, Youth’s Workers Union (YWU), the YWU had recently put on their platform supporting Pro-Choice to abortion and have urged the Labour Party to do the same. Which has led to Emilia being on the receiving end of threats and vandalism from Pro-Life organizations. Two days ago, the YWU leader had reported to the police that wheels of her car were punctured during her visit to the Akuan District in Osfjord. According to the police they were not able to find the interpretations with residents still refusing to work with the police. With the police saying they are still investigating the case.

The escalation of violence and vandalism by pro-life groups organized by Akuan communities has led to further discontent within the Labour Party as pro-choice members within it are calling for the prime minister to take a firm stance against it. With the loudest being Novreheim’s Administrative President, Hanna Ærligheten, who has proclaimed on Pigeon that: “I am not certain I can stay within a party which is led by a man who refuses to listen to women’s right for bodily autonomy.” Novreheim compared to the other Administrative Regions has had a far stricter response to the violence and vandalism, with Novreheim’s police having arrested dozens of Akuanists for Pro-Life vandalism and violence, most being described being female and kemonomimi. Which in return has led tens of thousands Akuanists protestings in cities of Novreheim against the arrests, with many Akuanists calling for the resignation of Miss Ærligheten. With several conservative Ulvriktru organizations joining the protests, including UD members in the Novreheim council.

Ulvriktru Democrats leader and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bjørn Varg, for the first time spoke up about the matter in which he called for everyone to follow the law and work with the police. But has proclaimed that any attempted change by the Labour Party to the established stance by the government on abortion will lead to his party leaving the coalition. “Me and my party’s stance on abortion is clear, if the pro-choice members think they can change that and have a functional government at the same time then they are completely mistaken”.

Fatherland Party’s Deputy Leader, Rosia Sannadatur, has also commented on the matter stating she is giving her full support to the Akuan protests against abortion and has proclaimed any supporter of Pro-Choice to be: “Baby killing monsters who do experiments on children!” With pictures circulating on the internet of her holding her new Akuan son while attending Pro-Life protests.

In a leaked phone call between Kirkeland and the Federal Prime Minister of the Federation, it was claimed that Pierre suggested “Send in the home guard.” To defend the abortion clinics before civil unrest got to an uncontrollable situation. While it is unknown Kirkeland’s reaction to the situation.

Breaking News: First Akuanist President of the NCEF

It was revealed this morning by the North Concordian Council that the new Council President for the NCEF will be Kåre Ny’andizn from Hvaloaszna. With this being the first time in North Concordian history that an Akuanist was chosen to become Council President. The outgoing Council President, Mæra Saradatur, has congratulated the new president and states her trust towards Ny’andizn. During a press conference she proclaimed that: “With Ny’andizn at the wheel the voice of Akuanists in NCEF and globally will be lifted up.”

Mister Ny’andizn one out of three candidates to the NCEF position, with it being a tight race between him and the presidential candidates of Asker Vantsøn from Norgsveldet and Viktor Olsman from Maanbriak. The victory of Ny’andizn has been seen with major celebration within the Progressive and Akuan Group that is active in the NCEF parliament.

“I was honored when I was even suggested to be one of the candidates running for the office. I never imagined becoming the president but yet, here I stand behind the lectern behind one of the biggest economic and political unions. I swear to uphold the high standards of our collective institution and strive for uplifting all our member states. So we all may benefit from our strengths and improve upon our weaknesses. May the spirits guide us to humility and greater things.”

The new president has been congratulated by several members of the NCEF with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bjørn Varg, having stated on Pigeon that it was “about time that we had an Akuanist president for the NCEF!” Despite largely positive feedback in Norgsveldet the choice of Ny’andizn as the bloc’s new president has been criticized by the People’s Workers Party’s MPs in the North Concordian Parliament. In which they claim that: “The way the North Concordian President is chosen is inherently undemocratic with the lack of parliamentary involvement. It is hardly fair that the Popular Left’s voice can’t be heard in this process.”

It should be noted that the Popular Left only makes up 37 seats out of 869 seats within the North Concordian Parliament. Less than 5% of the parliament’s seats. According to political experts claiming that if the North Concordian Parliament was going to have a decision over the North Concordian Council’s decision making over the organization’s presidency then it would be more dominated by conservative and right wing groups such as Alliance for Tradition and Heritage. In contrast the presidential candidates were dominated by liberal and center left candidates.

Replying to the PWP comment, the Akuan Interest Party replied by sending a book to the PWP headquarters in Osfjord, signed by the head of the party and various chairpeople of the party. ‘How to make friends and be popular’ is a popular book for Norgsveltian young adults and teenagers, especially for the introverted crowd and the people suffering from socializing disabilities.

One member of the NNF having reportedly been shot dead by the police after said member shot and killed several rioters. The NNF stated on their website that they are: “Determined to save elven lives and property from tiefling animals.”

The increase of violence has led the Administrative President of Nyveldet to officially ask the Norgsveltian government to deploy the Home Guard into the interior territories as result of fear that further violence will be escalated. According to rough reports from the Nyveldian government, 21 people have died during the rioting and over 500 people being seriously injured. With the head of the Nyveldian police, Erik Anderson, having proclaimed that the large numbers of injuries and deaths were the result of the NNF involvement.

The recent amount of violence has led to many within Nyveldet and Norgsveldet to call for the complete banning of the NNF as an political organization and to list it as an terrorist organization. With several Ulvriktru Democrats MPs having stated that they are working on a resolution that will officially list the NNF as an terrorist organization. In which Prime Minister Wilhelm Kirkeland had stated his approval of the resolution during a press conference in which he mentioned that the Federation has already listed the NNF as an terrorist organization.

Breaking News: Springtime for Naylorbrookisza banned in Osfjord for hate speech and public indecency.

The Nystatinne Musical, Springtime for Naylorbrookisza, has been banned in the Administrative Region of Osfjord after review by the regional council with the ban being recommended by local courts. According to Torbjørn Havret, Administrative President of Osfjord, the ban was placed upon the musical for violating regional laws about hate speech and public decency. With him specifically pointing towards the Osfjordian law, “Hat oppfordring” (Staynish: Incitement to Hatred), of § 101 which bans all incitement of hatred against national, species, religious or ethnic groups. The musical has been met with much scrutiny within Norgsveldet for what many have called as a glorification of a fascistic-like dictator and war criminal.

The heavy scrutiny towards the musical has left many calling for similar bans to be placed in other regions of Norgsveldet. With many claiming it doesn’t just violate the different regions constitution but the Norgsveltian constitution as whole, with the constitution having similar constitutional paragraphs against hateful rhetoric. In spite of that, a few defenders of the musical have claimed that the constitution’s paragraphs about free speech and artistic expression makes it clear that the musical does not violate constitutional law. Which has led to an increased debate within online circles of Norgsveldet about free speech and hate speech. With even politicians bringing it up such as the Nyveldian Councilor, Erik Grøntvik of the Fatherland Party, having stated that the musical will be able to be played in Nyveldet. With him having stated on a Pigeon post that: “The Fatherland Party will continue to ensure that Nyveldet is Norgsveldet’s bastion for Freedom of Speech.”

“Jokes aside, it was a pleasure watching you grow up and babysitting you. Even though you would run off because you thought I was boring. So happy birthday, and many more to come.

Breaking News: The Queen’s 50th Birthday!

Large celebrations being held around the Crown Realm for the Queen’s Day, with large festivals having been held in Osfjord as people take advantage of their day off. Queen Wilhelmina is celebrating her 50th birthday in the Federation together with most of her family. In which a large party is being held with invitees from around the world. Across Norgsveldet the Royal Flag was raised high across several government buildings with local governments sponsoring local cultural events. With the Mayor of Osfjord, Anna Birkdal, stating on her Pigeon that the capital will be having large celebrations in the Akuan District and encouraged people to participate.

Within the Akuan Districts across Norgsveldet, the streets and walkways were crowded with district-wide partying in the streets, roof-top and in several buildings. Businesses within the Akuan Districts offering discounted baked goods and drinks in honor of Wilhelmina’s upbring as a baker. Colorful ribbons and lights across the traditionally old fashion district, with signs of the royal family being displayed proudly in the streets.

Several Gothirs and Conservative organizations held similar celebrations across Norgsveldet with large focus on the Queen’s Royal Work. With the High Gothir of Osfjord and Orthodox Gustafism, opening a museum dedicated to the Queen in Osfjord itself. The Museum is located near Haakon’s Bridge so it is easily accessible to both those who live outside and inside of the Akuan District.

The Queen’s birthday party in Federation has gotten attention for the large number of international invitees. With representatives from across the Crown Realm being present, but also royal visitors from close allies of Norgsveldet. Such as Crown Princess Astrid of Kaldrbuth, King Ragnar V of Atlalandr and Queen Astrid I of Helslandr. Reports also have claimed that the Jarlynja of Normand, Albertine IV and her family will be participating in the party as well. With the Jarlynja’s Royal House being the Frida Dynasty who ruled the Old Queendom of Lapérouse before its collapse in the 1920s. Empress Marium I of Vistaraland and the Jarlynja of Lapiliszna, Esta the Protector, will be participating in the party as well. Which led to some concerns about the later two as a result of Federation foreign policy towards the two nations in question.

With reports of the Frida Dynasty being at the party, it marks a historical occasion in domestic history within the Federation. Being the first time they were allowed to visit the capital post-Unification war, the second time in recorded history a member of house Frida was invited to a government sponsored event and first time in the last 80 years that the heads of the two dynasties met in an official capacity. Due to the reclusive nature of the dynasty, Federation government policies and laws were placed on the former royal house of the Lapérouse. Marking a huge change within the country, with many questioning why the Federation suddenly changed its rules on the royal house.

The Royal House has stated on their website that they are thankful to all the celebrations and congratulations being given to the Queen for her birthday celebration. With Queen Wilhelmina having made a video personally thanking people and sent a message to Akuanists within Norgsveldet stating that “May our hopes about a cruelless world come true, and take care of our children.” With the message having been in Ny’stat’en but with Norgsveltian subtitles. The Royal Family has also released pictures on their website showing the celebration in the morning which included a large family photo. In which said photo the Jarl of Vakrestrender, Jørgen Bjørn, appears to be tackled by Princess Ny’Tencømo.

The Jarl of Vakrestrender released a statement online after the picture was released. Producing a photo of a young Princess Ny’Tencømo crying in pre-transition Jørgen arms, behind the pair, is a statue of a clown waving a knife with growing red eyes and dropping a basket of candy on the sideway with candy spilling out of it. With the caption “Hel’s Day 2013; BTW Nek-o I still own that statue <3”

We at the NNN wish the Queen an amazing birthday and we wish her continued long life. We will also thank the Jarl of Vakrestrender for the picture.

“I have always had in my intention to visit every corner of each Crown Realm nation, and I have promised the queen a good vacation as a birthday gift!”

It has come as a surprise by many for the sudden announcement of the tour. According to some government officials they were only warned a day prior to the announcement. Some have placed the reasoning behind it as result of rumors about the king’s eldest son, Prince Johan, having visited the heiress of the old Frida Dynasty. Though there have been no photos confirming said visits.

Wilhelm Kirkeland have stated his well wishes to the Royal couple wishing the two a good trip. With him also stating that he is certain that Princess Alexandra, second in line to the throne, will do a wonderful job in her father’s stead.

Federal Prime Minister of the Federation, Jeanne Pierre, stated that the tour was known beforehand and was prepared for. The tour will be taking the famous train route ‘Inter-States Network, 031’ or more commonly referred in pop culture and on social media as ‘The Belt.’ The train route is the largest train route in the Federation and in the peninsula as a whole. Going to every capital of the petite-nations of the country, including the city-states and autonomous regions. There are close to three hundred major tourist, historical and cultural attractions on the route. As well as numerous monuments, artworks and other forms of creativity created specifically to be seen from the train route. Pierre wished Princess Alexandra well on her vacation in Norgsveldet, and informed NNN that she will be stockpiling the necessary paperwork for her to complete when she comes back.

Breaking News: Rosia Sannadatur chosen as the Fatherland Party’s new leader

The former leader of the Fatherland Party, Erik Vederveld, has stated to the NNN that he will be resigning as Party’s leader after the most recent party meeting. He has stated that he wishes Miss Sannadatur good luck as leader and that he is confident that the party will continue to be under good leadership. According to other party members Miss Sannadatur was chosen for her “ambitious” and “creative” political thinking which they state the party was needing. Though most political experts have pointed towards her family’s large wealth which includes ownership of several important companies within Nyveldet. Most noticeable being Sannadatur’s son, Erik Torsteinson, owner of major media and service companies in Nyveldet such as Family Focus Entertainment, Nyveldian Eagle and co-owner of NyMa. With her eldest son, Ragnar Torsteinson, being the Administrative President of Nyveldet.

Some political commentators have proclaimed that Sannadatur would turn the Fatherland Party into a further nationalistic and populist rhetoric reversing the years of careful moderation which Vederveld was able to push. With the expectation that such a maneuver might strengthen and secure the Fatherland Party’s position in Nyveldet but ensure its voters on the mainland would turn to the Ulvriktru Democrats.

Despite these concerns Sannadatur recently stated in a press conference that: “I will work to ensure all Norgsveltians prosper, we are all Norgsveltians and as such we must work with members of the Akuan and LGBTQ+ community against the radicals.” A statement which had pondered many from within and outside the party. Though she has also stated that she will continue to support law and order in Nyveldet harshly condemning the “looters” and “thieves” in Ånslan and Duarlan.

Leader of the People’s Workers Party (PWP), Merli Cirivele, announced on Pigeon that: “Nyveldet is about to go on a very dark path with Miss Sannadatur on the reigns.” She urged all PWP supporters to continue their protests and opposition to the far right’s hateful comments.

Breaking News: Political earthquake after Ingrid the Reclaimer’s speech.

With Crown Princess Ingrid’s speech yesterday proclaiming her strong opposition to abortion and urging Akuanists to “defend the defenseless” having gained large attention in Norgsveldet. With politicians from across the political spectrum commenting on it, with the Crown Princess gaining large support from the Fatherland Party and the Akuan Interest Party. With recently chosen leader of the former, Rosia Sannadatur, having proclaimed on Pigeon that: “Any patriotic Norgsveltian would agree with Fyllikenkrasjlander’s statements. I stand with Ingrid, I stand with our Akuan siblings!” With many members of the Fatherland Party suggesting restricting the already strict abortion rights in Nyveldet.

The AIP released a statement on their official Pigeon account: “Defend the defenseless comes in many ways, but the most important way is through legality and protests. We, of course, are anti-killing babies and we will stand with their words and we will take it to heart to redouble our efforts of ending this children’s serial killing business.”

The Matriarch’s speech was however met with harsh criticism among left wingers and liberals within Norgsveldet. With the PWP having proclaimed on various social media platforms condemning the speech proclaiming it as a “authoritarian” and “backwards” approach in rulership. Eli Enitedatur one of the PWP’s representatives in the parliament having proclaimed Ingrid’s statements to be: “Bordering on being unconstitutional.” She also argues that the Crown Princess must be stripped from her Royal privileges and titles.

Leader of the LNP, Carl Agnar, stated to an reporter that concerns have been raised in his party over the issue and has made it clear that his party will continue to support women’s choice and proclaims that: “Ingrid has a right to raise her voice, but it does not mean we should listen.”

Several members of the Labour Party and its youth wing have also stated their criticism towards the Crown Princess. With the Administrative President of Novreheim, Hanna Ærligheten, and the leader of the Youth’s Workers Union, Emila Kirkeland, having made a joint condemnation of the speech. With the two women having proclaimed that the government must protect the women’s rights for bodily autonomy.

In a recent press conference held by the Prime Minister Wilhelm Kirkeland (LP) and Minister of Foreign Affairs Bjørn Varg (UD) has recently announced that the Ulvriktru Democrats will be leaving the coalition government. With Bjørn Varg having stated that: “With the prime minister and his party being steadfast in their support for pro-choice policies, including Kirkeland’s wishes to send in the Homeguard to protect abortion clinics. I cannot in good consciousness continue to ignore these major differences. I wish the prime minister good luck in finding another coalition partner.”

With the departure of the UD from the coalition having made many question how long Kirkeland’s government may last. With the prime minister having been given a month by his majesty to form a coalition government, if the deadline is not met it is expected that the largest opposition party the NCP would be given the possibility to once more form a government. Though many have questioned the NCP’s ability to form a new government with most parties having refused to work with them.

The Jarl of Vakrestrender and important spokesperson for Akuanism within the Norgsveltian speaking world, Jørgen Bjørn released a video on his social media accounts. Urging for civility and calmness, to follow the laws and discourage the use of ‘non-Akuan’ methods to combat the controversial issue. Maintaining his stance that to take the disputes to the voting booth and not the streets. This being another case of a growing trend of the traditionally apolitical Jarl speaking publicing about political matters, with some experts proposing that he’s following in his family’s tradition of being involved in the political level. Giving another statement soon after, he will speak with Ingrid the Reclaimer to directly voice some concerns he holds.

Breaking News: Gustafsborg and Isles of Hel announces referendums

The local governments of Norgsveldet’s last Crown Territories have announced that they will be holding referendums about their status as Crown Territories. With both Crown Representatives stated they will keep the wishes of the people in mind. With the referendums going to have three options for the voters, those being: Remaining as Crown Territory, Become part of Nyveldet or Become a Crown State.

The government has announced that they will pay for the costs of the referendums and stated it would accept the outcome no matter what they are. Stating that it be the constitutional right for either territory to change their status with Norgsveldet if the people want it. It is expected that if either Crown Territory was to change their status to become Crown States that they might quickly look towards independence. With the island territories and Nyveldet being last remnants of Norgsveltian territorial control in North Gondwana.

In an interview with Gustafsborg’s Crown Representative, Yrik Færnvik, it was stated that he and his party, Royalist League of Gustafsborg (RLG), will be campaigning against Crown State status. Stating that: “Frankly we are too closely connected to Norgsveldet to proclaim such a thing. It is within our interest, in my personal opinion, to become a county in Nyveldet. There we can have our voices heard.” According to local opinion polls within Gustafsborg many Gustafborgians support remaining as Crown Territory with around 39% support.

In heavy contrast the Isles of Hel’s Crown Representative, Tor Ruutli, announced that his populist and Pro-Meremain party, Party of National Reunification (PNR), will be campaigning for changing the islands status to that of a Crown State. With the party getting support from the more liberal, Autonomy Now! (AN) party. With both having done well in the local election in November of last year. The islands have been a matter of dispute between Norgsveldet and Meremaa as the latter have stated their wish to “reunify” with the islands.

Breaking News: Jakop Røtgal released from prison

At 134 years old, Jakop Røtgal, was released from prison for his involvement in the Akuan Atrocities in 1917. With him having served in the Norgsveltian Army as an elven officer during the later end of the Great War. With Røtgal having become famous after an interview with him for a Norgsveltian Great War documentary called “1915: A Sea of Blood” released back in 2011. In which he explained actions he committed during the war and apologized for them. The documentary had caught the eye of the Akuan Community with several prominent members of it having demanded the release of Røtgal for several years. Creating the #FriRøtgal! hashtag on Pigeon. It was not until 2019 that the Nyveldian Parole Board announced that Røtgal would be out of parole by 2023. With Røtgal being greeted by a crowd of Akuanist supporters, celebrating his release much to his surprise.

Brewmaster from Wergby, and a key figure in pushing for Røtgal to be released on parole. Urist Ny’Lofiness, organized the crowd of Akuanists to greet the reformed man as well organized a small cookout for him in the Akuan district, with an open invitation to all members of society. He gave a small statement,

“While we can’t change the past, our future can still be written. It is as it says in the stories, ‘There is no greater joy to the spirits, than a wicked spirit turning around to feel the love of the community once more.’ Mr. Røtgal has spent several of my people’s life-times in prison, he not only showed remorse, but kindness and compassion to those who he has so drastically wronged in the past.”

Jouets Nouveau Départ; or New Start Toys, a Rochefort firm headquartered in the Federation has made a job offer to Mr. Røtgal. The company itself having started by former soldiers of Norgsveldet who moved to the Federation after the Akuan Atrocities, and historically hired remorseful individuales of the Atrocities in the past.

Despite the large support given to Røtgal’s release it has caused uproar within the Norgsveltian left. The PWP had stated their complete opposition to his release, with several PWP members having protested against Røtgal’s release this morning. With it having been reported that objects and food had been thrown at him before the protesters were dispersed by the police. Eli Enitedatur, PWP representative in the Grand Assembly proclaimed it as a: “Irresponsible decision from the justice system, men like him can’t be redeemed.” With the PWP gaining support from some Labour Party members who were also part of the protests. With many calling for him to be returned to prison to serve his full life sentence, stating concern over the precedent this might set.

Despite being out of parole it has been announced by Deputy Director of the NCIS, Tirger Taliskar, that Røtgal would be under NCIS surveillance for the first few years of his release.

Breaking News: Helslandr; One Year After The War

It has been one year since the Helslandr Civil War ended after UCA led intervention backed the provisional government against the Nationalists Forces in the country. With Helslandr holding its first ever fair elections in October of last year, with the monarchist coalition holding a thin margin of majority in the nation’s parliament. In which Helslandr’s Prime Minister, Ylva Kattdalen, being one tasked to rebuild the country’s economy and infrastructure after over a year of civil conflict and destruction. Made worse with over four million people having fled Helslandr to nearby countries like Eyjaria, Pledonia, Nakosa and the Federation. Recent reports have estimated that over a million refugees are returning back to the country after success coming from the large aid and investment packages given to Helslandr through the Bassot Plan. In a recent press conference made by the Secretary General of the Crown Realm, Côme Bassot, it has revealed that funding to the joint NCEF program has exceeded expectations this year as well with over 197 billion UKR (98.5 billion SHD) being given this year. With aid and investments given back last year it has been estimated that over 457 billion UKR (228.5 billion SHD) have been given in total. Far larger than the entirety of Helslandr’s estimated gdp.

According to the press conference and joint reports given by NCEF and the Federation the largest contributors to the plan has been Norgsveldet at 108 billion UKR (54 billion SHD), the Federation with 70 billion UKR (35 billion SHD) and Vistaraland with 66 billion UKR (33 billion SHD). With majority of funding Norgsveldet given having been back in last year. With large contributions also coming from Atlalandr, Kaldrbuth and Eyjaria. With Eyjaria having given most per capita to Helslandr. The Secretary General has announced that the funding has helped the country massively, which has been echoed by Kattdalen who has called the plan a lifeline for the Helslandr nation. With estimates that the infrastructure can handle refugees returning home, which has become a major policy for the monarchist government. Kattdalen proclaimed it the: “Best assurance for future prosperity and growth.”

While not as large in terms of economic and material aid the NCEF members of Hvaloaszna, Nakosa, Vakrestrender and Pledonia have given a combined 34,6 billion UKR (17,3 billion SHD). According to the mayor of Wirlik, Jakop Edertalbein, several tons of barrels of fish have arrived in the city to help with the recent fish shortage in the city. With many the city also renaming its hospital the Bjørn’s Smiles Hospital after new funding having come from the Bjørn’s Trust. With the aid and general large approval rating of the current government having led to large optimism among the Helslandr public over the nation’s future. With Queen Astrid I of Helslandr having done charity work in the country’s capital for returning refugees from the Federation.

Despite this optimism there has been much debate both from outside and inside Helslandr about the nation relying so much on external aid and investments. With the Norgsveltian University of Business and Finance having warned about sending too much aid to the Helslandr government, stating it be better to be cautious about the aid as to encourage the Helslandr government to rely more on its own sources. Despite said warnings the University has pointed out major successes from the program such as the rebuilding of many vital mining facilities and the Durin’s Energy Pipeline. Which has been rebuilt largely as a result of funding from both the Bassot Plan and Together Lapérouse!. They have however questioned the monetary confusion that might come from usage of two different currencies such as the United Krone and Red Krone on such projects as result of different economic development plans.

The aid is also a matter of large debate in Helslandr’s political scene, with the Republican opposition having stated their concern of amount aid coming from external actors. With the leader of Republican opposition, Erik Espen, from the Republican Union Party (RUP) having stated he does not oppose the amount of aid given to Helslandr but that he urges the government to not rely on too much aid given from nations outside Vestrava. Having gone on Pigeon to state that: “I hope that in the near future that a true Vestravan Bloc gets made to ensure no brother nation is left behind”.

Ela Ymlaia, Leader of the Socialist Royalist Party (SRP) and the Minister of Labour and Social Inclusion replied to the post, with two photos. Photo one being a bombed out neighborhood, and the other photo being the same neighborhood completely rebuilt. “Hey look, at all the evil Red Krone doing dastardly things! How dare they provide us aid in order to rebuild our homes. Btw your hometown looks so much better than it did a year ago <3.”

Ymlaia’s post caused a small scandal for the monarchist government as many within the Republican opposition complained about her lack of professionalism. With the largest critics coming from the opposition left wing as Matilda Fjørndali, leader of the Republican League of Helslandr (RLH), having called the SRP leader of being a “Imperialist Puppet painted red”.

Ymlaia caused further scandal in her reply on pigeon, “One of us killed fascists during the war and the other is a Republican.” She later clarified her points, “We don’t need professionalism, we need action without the finger wavers crying everytime we break some eggs. We’re making the mother of omelets, Matilda, can’t fret over every act of blue collar (which you claim to be part of despite living in that five bedroom, two and a half bath; ‘house’ + nice ‘cabin’ never knew someone need a cabin in the middle of the capital with a view to the sea) language being used.”

Despite different views over foreign involvement in Helslandr there has been broad agreement across Helslandr society in support of the Vestravan-Côtois brigade which currently helping the Helslandr Armed Forces in the occupation of the southern territories of Helslandr that still dealing with nationalist insurgency from the now largely defunct Iron Front. According to brigadier general of the Vestravan-Côtois unit, Josiane Dufour, the insurgency is being decisively contained. Proclaiming it to be like shooting fish in a barrel with help from the Norgsveltian made Tordenfugen TB3 Drone.

Opinion News: Fatherland Party new favorite Akuanist; Henry Ny’Apiran

Henry Ny’Apiran, who even by Nys’tat’en speakers’ standards speaks quickly, found himself a new employment after being dismissed from the Akuan media company ‘Foxit Time’ after his offensive comments towards Duarists in Nyveldet. Implying that Nyveldtian Duarists don’t follow their own religious doctrine and lack the ability to build something of their own without taking it from someone else. He was hired by NyNationen, a right wing news based media company with connections to the Fatherland Party, owned by business conglomerate, Erik Torsteinson.

Henry Ny’Apiran is widely seen by both traditional, progressive and moderate Akuanists to be a extremely far traditionalist. Traditional and progressive terms have a far different meaning for the Akuan world. He calls himself to be more of a Valkyr Akuan democratic rather than the more common orthodox Akuan democracy, Valkyr Akuan democracy being popular within Vakrestrender and in Eyjaborg, a city-state in Rikevaarland. Disliking economic regulation, anti-monopoly and anti-trust laws in Norgsveldet, Henry was an outspoken critic of many of them. Wanting an enlighten, beneficial parental-figure to guide and provide for the region using wealth rather than a more traditional monarch. Considered by virtually all Akuanists outside of Vakrestrender and Eyjaborg to be near if not outright anti-Akuanist in nature. Another controversy he found himself in was the recent abortion where his comments were seen to be far too extreme by Akuanist standards, and due to hate speech laws to be published on the website.

During his court case, he was fired from Foxit Time after he made a post on Pigeon about the Duarists with the judge handling the case being a Duarist Tiefling from Nyveldet. As such the company stopped paying for his legal defense, but he quickly received support from the Fatherland Party and NyNationen hiring him during his court case. Henry described his court case as being anti-Akuanist, as stories and opinions are meant to be shared freely without the threat of violence hanging over someone’s head.

Being hired at NyNationen, he was given a show which translated from Nys’tat’en to mean “New Akuanist.” His new show being spoken purely in Nys’tat’en, a first for the company to offer such. As well being the first for the company to broadcast on local radio stations in Nyveldet, in particular between 5am to 8am and another time slot in 6pm to 8pm on weekdays. When asked why he wanted those particular timesets, it is when most Akuanists goto and come from work, often on the bus. With most buses operating in the Akuan districts in Nyveldet, usually playing Nys’tat’en radio stations.

On top of the radio show and podcast. He is popular on social media sites, such as Ourtube and Pigeon. Where he frequently is in arguments with other Akuanists or sharing clips from his podcast on. Majority of his arguments with other Akuanists being targeted towards worrying or focusing on the wrong thing, such as if a meat is Grusomhetsfritt Kjøtt or not, when the Akuanist is carrying a credit card or having a mortgage that doesn’t follow the Akuan rules on finance.

While he is seen as an extreme traditionalist, he does carry a heavy following among some of the strict and traditionalist Akuanists. With a growing resentment within Norgsveldet, with the growth of rising housing prices requiring (non-Akuan financed) mortgages, gentrification on Akuan districts, and People’s Worker Party recently new slew of speciest and anti-Akuanist rhetoric towards Akuanists in Norgsveldet. In particular the last point, of the PWP seeing a greater interest in his following. As Akuanists online and in traditional media are pointing towards the PWP as a prime example of why Akuanists in Norgsveldet can’t vote socialist and alluding towards that the PWP behind closed-doors, are planning on harming Akuanists.

Breaking News: Meeting between the Blåskovian Crown Prince and President Minerva Todd

It has been recently reported in different Concordian and Blåskovian news agencies that Crown Prince Wilan of Blåskog had landed in the capital city of UCCS, Ronald, F.D. With the Blåskovian government having announced that the Crown Prince will be having a meeting with the UCCS’s president, Minerva Todd. The topic of the meeting being stated to have specifically economic matters in mind. The Blåskovian Crown Prince stated on Pigeon that the UCCS is an important economic partner and investor into the Blåskovian economy in which the meeting is to strengthen these factors and more. Despite the announcement being proclaimed to only be economic matters, the meeting has raised eyebrows among Crown Realm and NCEF members.

Prime Minister Wilhelm Kirkeland has stated that the government is concerned about the UCCS legitimizing the Blåskovian violent actions and conflicts in East Borea through these meetings. With Kirkeland having compared it to: “Feeding rampaging fat wolves.” Similar sentiments having been expressed by the Eyjarian minister of foreign affairs, Gudrun Kleydotter, who stated: “The Blåskovian government deserves sanctions, not investments and trade.” Despite Blåskog having been thrown out of the NCEF no official joint sanctions have been placed on the Blåskovian government after its invasion of Syrtænaszna last year. With proposals of joint sanctions on the East Borean nation having been blocked by Vistaraland, it became Blåskog’s largest investor and trade partner after most NCEF members placed individual sanctions on the country. With only joint sanctions on the East Borean nation that the entirety of NCEF having agreed upon being the matters of arms exports.

FPM of the Federation, Jeanne Pierre released a small statement about the meeting. “This is not unexpected, carcasses attract vultures and there is no bigger vulture than the Corporatocracy States of Concord.” The Norgsveltian government had made no comment about Pierre’s statement when asked about it. The NNN has attempted to reach out to the Jarl of Vakrestrender for a comment about the Blåskovian Crown Prince with it being publicly known that the Jarl had a previous relationship with the Crown Prince. But Jarl Bjørn’s secretary has refused to comment about the meeting and his past relationship with the Blåskovian Crown Prince, proclaiming he rather focus on his current relationship with Johanna Sverdrup.

Minerva Todd also was reached out during a separate press briefing over the newly-passed Economic Fairness Act: “Mrs. Pierre must say what she has to say in the position she is in. But I will remind Mrs. Pierre that vultures do not tend to hunt down and kill their prey. Now who might have made that carcass? A question for the ages.”

In a separate Communique by the President, Ms. Todd also praised the meeting with Blåskog, hailing it as “the start of an important chapter in the UCCS’s and Blåskog’s history.”

Breaking News: UD leader, Bjørn Varg, announces creation of a New Political Bloc within the parliament

Former Minister of Foreign Affairs and leader of the Ulvriktru Democrats (UD), Bjørn Varg, has announced on Pigeon that he had a meeting with Bergiz Ny’kken, leader of the Akuan Interest Party (AIP), and Rosia Sannadatur, leader of the Fatherland Party (FP), in which their three parties will create a political bloc within the Grand Assembly. The political bloc being named, Religious Interests Bloc, or shortened to just the Religious Bloc. According to the conservative and UD affiliated newspaper, Kongensfolk, the Religious Bloc unified purpose is the promotion of religious schools, opposition to secularism, opposition to abortion, promotion of local interests, promotion of family values, promotion of increased parental leave, promotion of Ny’Ingerism and promotion of Norgsveltian Federalism. With mister Varg proclaiming the creation as the inherent answer to the liberal abortion policies that have been pushed since the creation of the 80s and 90s political movement called the Goth Movement. According to recent opinion polls the Religious Bloc sits at 41,85%, higher than the government’s coalition’s combined 40,93% in the same polls.

The Bloc’s creation has been a major shock for many within the Norgsveltian left and center who called the UD leader for being irresponsible for “rubbing elbows” with the Norgsveltian far right. Leader of the PWP, Merli Cirivele, has stated in Pigeon that the AIP and UD is making a major mistake for “siding” with a “Neo-Fascist” like Rosia Sannadatur. The UD Deputy Leader, Geri Tavson, responded to the criticism by proclaiming that: “The Religious Bloc is committed to Norgsveltian democracy, Norgsveltian traditions. Despite my disagreements with the Fatherland Party it has shown more commitments to said ideals than the PWP and its Einarist Past.” Tavson’s comments only furthered the controversy as many within the PWP had accused the UD for deliberately ignoring the FP’s past. The Administrative President of Novreheim and a influential Labour Party member, Hanna Ærligheten, proclaimed the creation as an attack on women rights and has announced harsh criticism towards the AIP. Stating they are being used by the Norgsveltian right against their own interest. The AIP had been formerly part of Labour’s Akuanist Wing until it split in 2019, over the issue of abortion. Leader of the AIP, Bergiz Ny’kken, made a viral video on Pigeon addressing the claims made by the Administrative President. The video spread across the internet with support coming from across the political spectrum despite the harsh criticism towards the Labour Party.

“With all due respect to the Administrative President, but an overwhelming majority of pro-life activists are in fact women. Before the AIP was formed, we brought our concerns to you about abortion and it being unnecessarily used in too many cases. When we advocate for birth control, parental leave and better education. The ability for parents to more easily access welfare and daycare centers. You were on board, despite you repeatedly refusing to push for more funds in budget meetings. Then when we brought our concerns about our children losing their culture, their faith you ignored us. When we Akuanists brought our concerns that our Akuan Districts will be cannibalized by corporations and the rich moving in. You ignored us then too. You claim that it was abortion that split us apart, but rather it was a series of disrespect and refusal to advocate on Akuanists behalf as a whole. The Labour Party never made a real push for Akuan interests and preservation of our belief and culture, meanwhile the UD has repeatedly defended us. It wasn’t the PWP or LP that made gay marriage legal, but the UD, something folks online tend to forget about. You make a statement saying we’re used by the far right, but in all honesty you would have preferred us Akuanists to reject our ancient heritage in favor of becoming more like you and less like us.”

The Labour Party has yet to make an official comment about the video. The NNN will like to note that the PWP was not an political party when gay marriage was passed in 1989 and it was pushed by a joint Labour/UD coalition government. With UD only changing its policies on same sex activity and marriage in 1979 and 1985 respectfully.

Breaking News: Hel’s day celebration

Today marks an important cultural and religious celebration as across the Ulvriktru world celebrate Hel, Goddess of Death. In which one is meant to dress up as a creature or being that is seen as terrifying, in which according to Ulvriktru doctrine Hel will protect you from said creature. Despite its Ulvriktru origins the day is also celebrated by many Non-Ulvriktruars, with Vakrestrender holding large celebrations despite being majority Akuanist. Within Osfjord a large festival is held near the Royal Palace with Hel’s themed food and drinks being served. With it becoming a tradition for the Royal Family to dress up for it as well, with the King being dressed up as the Jarl of Vakrestrender while the Jarl having chosen to dress up as the King. Queen Wilhelmina and Princess Ny’Kandenor have chosen to dress up as dragons.

Helsday is also known for the tradition of holding religious themed plays after temple service, with the plays varying from branch to branch yet holding similar cultural themes about Hel helping in protecting the weak. With the largest Ulvriktru temple in the world, the Raven Temple in Osfjord, holding a play about the story of a young boy protected by the goddess ensuring dragonfire does not engulf him. The play is being recorded by the NNN. In Helsdalen, Kaldrbuth, the Death Temple holds a special play about three women protecting a wounded and weak man according to orders from Hel. Helsdalen is well known for deep sexism towards men, including the refusal of letting single men enter the Death Temple in which they must have a female companion. The only exceptions having been given to members of the Kaldrbuthian and Norgsveltian Royal Families, or if the single man is widowed. The former exception being forced by the Kaldrbuthian Queen, with the Arch-Princess of Helsdalen, Elixara IV having complained about allowing single male members of the Kaldrbuthian Royal Family into temple service.

Arch-Gothir Gaëtane III of house Jaubert-Frida, head of the Hjørdist Branch of Gustafistic Ulvriktru. Gave a sermon during the traditional Helsday service and play. The hour long sermon, hit on the topics of change and valuing one old tradition their grandparents carried. The sermon being considered controversial within the Federation proper, as the Arch-Gothir mention some reforms having to be reconsidered, and should be changed some near time in the future. With several protests of Hjørdist families springing up across the Federation, primarily within the Jarldoms of the Federation, with counter protesters from university students matching them.

Breaking News: Tangrland and Federation recognises East Awawelat

In a recent press conference held this morning between the Minister-President of the Tangrian Federation, Sigrid Basgu and Federal Prime Minister of the Crowned Socialist Federation Southern Coast of Lapérouse, Jeanne Pierre, the two leaders announced that their two nations would increase cooperation in matters within the Crown Realm. Mostly through economic and geopolitical matters, with Basgu having announced that the Federation will help the Tangrian government in its domestic political reforms. With Basgu having proclaimed to take the Federation’s Federal model as an inspiration for what the Tangrian Federation would look like. During the press conference the two leaders also announced they would recognise the separatist state in Eastern Salisar, officially known as the Collective Republic of Awawelat, also called as East Awawelat by the Salisian government. East Awawelat was created after the collapse of the Republic of Salisar during the Salisian Civil War, in opposition to the Vistari backed settler government in Astrazarode. With East Awawelat being largely made up by Tangrianist militias through support from the Tangrian government. Basgu proclaims that her government would increase its support to the separatists, and urges other nations to follow Tangrland’s and Federation’s footsteps by recognising East Awawelat as a legitimate state.

When asked to comment about the recognition and reasoning behind it during the press conference, Mrs Pierre proclaimed that: “The plight of the Birctan and Blandigar people for sovereignty and the cruelty of the colonizer ethnonationalist state can not be under-stated. The settler-ethnonationalist Salisian state cannot continue its crimes against sapient rights unchallenged by the international community. It is the moral duty as a Socialist and as an anti-imperialist to recognise the East Awawelat state and oppose the current regime which so heavily focuses on the needs of the few over the needs of the native inhabitants in the pursuit of capitalist greed.”

While no direct comment was made about Vistaraland’s involvement both women repeatedly stated that Salisar’s backers have the moral duty to force the Salisian government to recognise the independence of East Awawelat. With Mrs Pierre proclaiming that the Salisian government was nothing more than a puppet to the interests of its backers. The press conference has been strongly condemned by the Salisian Government, with the Vistari Magnate and Salisian Chancellor Andries Hertz having accused the Federation for: “Supporting Tangrland’s expansionist ambitions through recognising the Tangrianist Fundamentalists in Eastern Awawelat.” The press conference has been a matter of much debate in Norgsveldet, with Tangrland and Federation being the Crown Realm’s third and second most important members. Many among the Norgsveltian left suggested that Norgsveldet should follow after, though Prime Minister Wilhelm Kirkeland has made it clear that the Norgsveltian government for now still recognises the Salisian State control of Eastern Awawelat. Though the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Viskir Tordtar, released a statement this evening urging the international community should push for a peaceful solution to the dispute and push the Salisian Government to end its settler centric policies.

With both Tangrland and Vistaraland being one of the largest members in the NCEF in population and vital for NCEF integration projects in North Gondwana many experts have questioned if the Salisian Civil War can further increase tensions between the two neighbors. Made further complicated by the disputes between the Tangrian Government and the A.W.C, an subsidiary to the Vistari megacorporation INTCO. With the Tangrian Government having threatened to nationalize A.W.C if the company does not improve the conditions and wages for Tangrian workers, with A.W.C playing a major role in Tangrland’s lumber industry.

Breaking News: Nightmare in Camp Djevelskog; Serial Killer shot dead!

Nyveldian police and Crown Realm military forces arrived early this morning at the social media detox camp called Djevelskog after an emergency call from the head camp counselor. According to the Nyveldian police the camp was attacked by two elven men in their early 30s. According to the survivors the men were reported to be wearing identical clown masks while armed with handguns and axes during the attack. According to a camp counselor the attack happened at midnight, with it being reported that the two assailants entered from both north and south of the camp. With the call to the police happening at 4:30 am, with survivors having stated that their personal phones were destroyed after being stored in the head camp counselor’s safe, however a guidance counselor kept their phone on them. One of the attackers was shot dead by a Homeguard Soldier during the joint police-military operation, with the other surrendering to Nyveldian police. According to the police 22 campers died during the attack with another 37 being injured, with the police estimating the mass majority of casualties being a result of the attackers setting fire on the cabin that the camp goers were hiding in.

After interrogation and investigation done by the NCIS it was found out that the two attackers were Torsvik Hammnød and Kørn Hammnød, two brothers with ties to the NNF. According to interrogation against Kørn the attack was not done as an official mission by the NNF with Kørn asserting that he and his brother were just “bored”. With Mister Kørn stating he and his brother were members of the NNF less out of ideological obligation and more out of need to get out of “normalcy”. With the two brothers having reportedly been dishonorably discharged from the Norgsveltian army for “overly violent tendencies” and “disrespect towards authority”.

During the attack an Federation citizen by the name of Arlette Firmin was murder by the two brothers, with Firmin having her head chopped off by the now dead Torsvik. Arlette Firmin, was the youngest daughter of Angeline Firmin, the foreign minister of the Federation. In a released press statement, she feels sympathy for all victims of the campsite massacre and has issued an official request, with approval from the Federal Prime Minister of the Federation, to be allowed to extradite the surviving brother in order to place charges of terrorism on the survivor. Terrorism within the Federation carries life-time imprisonment at its Château d’If, a prison where concerns have been raised about the psychological conditions of its prisoners by various prisoner rights organizations and sapient watchdog groups.

Federal Prime Minister Pierre of the Federation issued a letter of her sympathies to all the parents who had their children murdered at the camp, and to all the survivors of the terrorist attack. Calling the massacre one of the most deadly attacks to happen within the Ulvrikian world.

A national memorial will be held within Nyveldet for the attack on the 30th October, with prime minister Wilhelm Kirkeland, government ministers and members of the Royal Family attending the memorial. With his majesty Olav I having condemned attacks proclaiming it as pointless bloodshed, stating that his heart and prayers goes to all those affected by the attack. The Foreign Affairs Minister Mrs. Angeline Firmin with her family and FPM Pierre with her wife will be attending the memorial. Mrs. Firmin, announcing shortly after her original statement she will be stepping down as minister to spend more time with her family.

Breaking News: New Reparation Bill succeed in passing the parliament, outrage in Nyveldet

After several weeks of discussion between the government and opposition a new bill was proposed for the parliament named, the Reparation and Repatriation Bill of 2023, which passed the Grand Assembly with 334 votes in favor with 250 votes against and 16 abstains. The bill was supported by the LP, LNP, UD and PWP. With the bill having added new additions to the original proposal made back in April by the LP-UD government. One of said additions being the inclusion of reparations towards LGBTQ+ communities which the LNP placed heavy emphasis on for its support to the bill’s proposal of spending 0,5% gdp annually over the course of several decades for programs towards reparations and repatriation. It was rumored that despite the PWP’s best efforts only 11% of the spending would be spent on Duarist tiefling communities, an increase of only 1% from last proposal.

The leader of the Ulvriktru Democrats, Bjørn Varg, proclaimed in a press conference that 50% of the estimated budget would be sent towards Ymirland as reparations. According to current estimates, around 21,14 billion UKR (10,57 billion SHD) would be sent to Ymirland annually over the course of three decades. Estimated to end with over 630 billion UKR (315 billion SHD) having been spent in total by 2053. With Varg having stated that he expects the government to work with the leaders of the ‘Returning to the Homeland’ movement and the Ymir government on the repatriation of people to Norgsveldet according to the right of return. Which on the highest estimates can run up to almost two million people which can be considered to have said right. According to prime minister Wilhelm Kirkeland the final estimates would be dependent on year to year, proclaiming that this year would place a greater focus on supporting the communities and nations that dealt with the Akuan Atrocities.

The bill faced staunch opposition by the FP and NCP which has criticized the amount being spent, with the FP specifically criticizing the amount spent to tiefling communities. With Rosia Sannadatur claiming that: “Giving more in economic aid to Duarlan and Ånslan would just reward poor economic management in the regions.” With the Fatherland Party having organized protests in Nyveldet against the bill, proclaiming it a waste of taxpayer money. With Nyveldet being the only administrative region which had a majority of the public against the bill, with around 57.6% of correspondents asked having stated they disagree with the contents of the bill.

The government has announced that around 42,28 billion UKR (21,14 billion SHD) shall be allocated to the Norgsveltian Crown Reparation and Repatriation Program, which will be under the Ministry of Finance. Which shall be spent on groups affected by Norgsveltian colonialism both inside and outside Norgsveldet, with exceptions being placed on nations considered unacceptable for reparation payment most notably Tiervan and Rikevaarland.

Édith Fabien, a comedian from the Federation came under fire from across the political spectrum after several of her jokes were recorded and shared online on various social media sites. The Fatherland Party and People’s Workers Party issuing separate statements denouncing Mrs. Fabien.

“You know what the problem is with Duarists? They just didn’t die enough during the Great War and they are certainly not cute enough for sympathy. Ten million Akuanist died during the Akuan Atrocities, and that was a century ago. You still see Norgsveltians tear up about it! They weren’t even around then. So if the Duarists want some attention, just die. Like just being slaughtered by the military and boom, suddenly Norgsveltians are finally caring about Duarists. No need for social justice or any of that, just simply die in front of a cop or something and boom, you suddenly have rights! Maybe an elf would greet you on the train instead of calling the cops on you.”
[laughter]
“Listen, another thing is. I mean this in the best way possible, my husband is a tiefling but all of you look terrifying when compared to an Akuanist. You’re just not cute enough for a Norgsveltian to feel sorry about when seeing a Duarist get shot. You see an Akuanist in an army uniform, you just feel like laughing at them and lifting them up carrying them around. No one takes them seriously, when I was serving in the marines. I had a Norgsveltian elf just lift me up out of nowhere, and try to give me a hug. They never saw the knife coming.”
[laughter]
“It’s a serious issue, you’re laughing but it actually happens. An elf just sees a kemonomimi and goes oh boy, an Akuanist! Time to violate their personal space without repercussions. However, you see a tiefling in a uniform and it’s like ‘oh [censored], they have a gun.’ Then your lieutenant forgets that he had a tiefling in his squad and calls the MPs on you.”
[laughter]
“Have you ever noticed the elves never forget to pay back an Akuanist but never forget to get their loaned money from a Duarist? I loaned a few benders to an elf once, and got my money back the next payday. My husband loaned the same elf some money, and then next payday the elf said he owed him money.”

The jokes were cited by the PWP as hate speech. Fatherland Party leader’s Rosia Sannadatur stated that the comedian’s hateful joke towards elves and Ulvriktru shouldn’t be tolerated in any modern society. Going so far to publish a response on Pigeon targeting the comedian, stating that such hateful rhetoric should be tolerated.

Mrs. Fabien replied with a screenshot of the definition of ‘cuck’ to the thread by Mrs. Sannadatur.

Erøt Framrest, an MP from the Ulvriktru Democrats stated on the Pigeon that the jokes were highly offensive and irresponsible in the current political climate. With other members of UD having made similar statements. Despite the condemnations Mrs. Fabian’s show on Nordflix has remained massively popular despite the harsh criticism being directed towards her.

Breaking News: Increase in Anti-Akuan Rhetoric across Concord

The Concordian Institution for Study of Discrimination and Hate-Groups, recently reported that there has been a massive rise in hate-motivated crimes and rhetoric towards Akuanists. Especially in the United Confederation of Concordian States, both West and East Atlalandr and to a lesser degree Norgsveldet. The notable example to buck the trend of neighboring states being Kaldrbuth, which hasn’t reported any increase in hate crimes towards Akuanists.

The recent rise in hate crimes towards Akuanists, stimming issues different in each nation though they do have some similarities and underlying tones. The most notable case being the belief that Akuanists are either incapable or unwilling to assimilate to the native culture. Though in the Norgsveltian case, it was primarily stimulated from the Atlalandian diaspora targeting Akuanists facilities (such as schools and clinics) and owned business. With the largest case being a trio of Atlalandian teens attempting to burn down a Akuan bathhouse in Osfjord.

Within UCCS there have been several reports of Akuan communities being harassed and met with threats from various right wing organizations opposing the autonomy given to Akuan reservations. With there being one reported incident in Baldwin City of an Akuan couple beaten up by members of the fringe far right Tercic Party. With there being a video about the incident showing the members accusing the couple for being separatists, with the incident being dispersed by local police. According to the police ward the couple sustained serious life threatening injuries.

Within West Atlalandr and East Atlalandr there has been a massive rise in hate crimes directed towards their respective Akuan communities, with their respective police having reported 221 and 309 incidents of hate charged crimes against Akuan institutions or individuals in West and East Atlalandr respectively. The rise is largely being blamed on the rise of Mkænian Nationalism, in the Mkæniszna regions of both nations. With the West Atlalandian Prime Minister, Nikkolas Bjarnvikdal, having announced a massive increase in police protections in Akuan institutions and districts. Proclaiming the rise in hateful rhetoric to be concerning, and have condemned the violence. Though the prime minister have been criticized by the liberal opposition in West Atlalandr, with the leader of the Liberal Union Party (LUP) and the opposition, Megert Flatnis, proclaiming that the prime minister and his party being guilty of allowing anti-Akuan rhetoric to go unopposed for to long by making an coalition government with the right wing Ulvrikian People’s Party (UPP). Though it be noted that the reports about hate charge crimes have had its instigators coming from both the far left and far right side of the political spectrum. With members of Reformed Einarist Party (REP) and the UPP having been caught making hateful comments towards the Akuan minority in Atlalandr.

The West Atlalandian King, Ragnar V, had strongly condemned the violence taking place and urged the government to take a stronger position against the rise of hatred towards the Akuan Community. The king madea video proclaiming his solidarity with the Akuan community and urged Atlalandian citizens to show respect and understanding for Akuanists and their religion. The king having also announced he will be visiting the Akuan District in Atlaborg to meet with local brewmasters.

In East Atlalandr there have been a series of Einarist fueled riots and protests in several major cities after the government announced they would allow a independence referendum to be held in the Autonomous Republic of Mkæniszna at the request of the Mkænian Independence Party. With many rioters and protesters having harassed Akuanists living within the Akuan District in Veridal. With videos coming online showing Akuan shops being destroyed by rioters, with some marking houses and buildings where Akuanists lived in with graffiti with the word “separatist” in it. The protests and riots were promoted by the National Bloc, an political alliance made up of the two main opposition parties in the East Atlalandian parliament. This all comes up only a few weeks until the presidential election in East Atlalandr, with the National Bloc candidate being on an all time high in the opinion polls.

The Ulvriktru Democrats (UD) affiliated organization, Stand Up Towards Akuan Hatred, released a viral video into Pigeon and other social media websites of a Norgsveltian father chastising his son for Anti-Akuanist statements online. With the video revealing that there have been over 50,000 posts on Pigeon posted this year (that originate from Concord) which has the statement “Dveirleson had a point”. With video having become very popular in Norgsveldet, with leader of the UD, Bjørn Varg, urging media companies on Concord to have the video played during commercials. Proclaiming that: “It is clear the lessons my grandparents learned, is being forgotten among many young folk of today. Please, do not let their efforts go to vain."

Breaking News: East Atlalandian President dies two weeks before election

President of East Atlalandr, Gørn Gerjikdal, died this morning at the Veridal Hospital having been sent to the hospital yesterday night after collapsing in front of his bedroom’s door. With the president’s doctors stating that he died at the hospital during his sleep. With Mister Gerjikdal dying at the age of 92, having served as president of East Atlalandr since 2001. Having served as previous position of Secretary General after the death of the Einarist dictator Veri Våld in 1997, with the late president being one behind reforming East Atlalandr away from one party rule. Prime Minister Sanna Vakrela has announced a state of mourning in the country, proclaiming that the nation had lost a great leader and reformer. With her government organizing a state funeral for the late president to be held on the 25th September. Across East Atlalandr citizens have come to the streets to mourn his death.

Condolences from across Concord and the world, with the president being popular among mainly left wing groups for his role in ending East Atlalandr’s oppression of religious minorities. UCCS’s President, Minerva Todd, stated in a press conference that: “Gerjikdal will be greatly missed, it is a tragedy not just to East Atlalandr but to all on Concord and the world to have lost such an amazing leader. His legacy in creating an democratic and free East Atlalandr will never be forgotten.” With Miss Todd stating she will be attending the funeral to pay her respect to a close ally of UCCS.

Prime Minister Wilhelm Kirkeland stated his condolences in a Pigeon post to the late president emphasizing Gerjikdal role during the detente effort during the Concordian Cold War. An effort that helped in ending the Cold War, and leading to a greater level of peace and security on the continent. With Kaldrbuthian prime minister, Sara Ysverdatur, also proclaiming her condolences, stating: “My hope is that Gerjikdal’s respect for peace is not dashed away by any more rogue generals.” With Ysverdatur referring to KRF terrorists getting access to military grade explosives from an East Atlalandian general. When asked, the West Atlalandian minister of foreign affairs, Oskar Henriksøn, refused to state their condolences even after a condolences was sent from his own prime minister. With Mister Henriksøn being in charge of the right wing populist Ulvrikian People’s Party (UPP). With West Atlalandr’s prime minister having to clarify his condolences as one of private one, instead of a national one.

Federal Prime Minister Jeanne Pierre gave her condolences, ordering flags to be half mast for the next week and issued a day of mourning for the Federation. Breaking tradition of media silence for former FPMs, Judith Ardouin gave a public statement: “Mr. Gerjikdal was essential in the process of making East Atlalandr into a true democratic socialist state, and absolutely played a crucial role in ending the Concordian Cold War. He was a true socialist, through and through, undoubtedly the world yearning for freedom from capitalism will suffer from his departure.” The International Socialist Endowment Fund has awarded him posthumously the Rose Award, the FPM Pierre awarded the highest award given by the Federation ‘Medal of Morel’ and the International Red Union awarding posthumously the Award of the Red-Star. FPM Pierre and controversially the former FPM Ardouin will be attending the funeral of Mr. Gerjikdal.

Despite the death of Gerjikdal the East Atlalandian government have refused to delay the presidential election, with Mrs. Vakrela stated that the Socialist Republican Party (SRP) will be looking for a new candidate to face the opposition candidate, Erik Tårnet. With the presidential election being held at the end of September. Before his death Gerjikdal was leading by 65,2% in the most recent opinion polls, with only 30,1% of respondents stating they’d rather vote for Tårnet. Many have questioned if the SRP can find a candidate able to secure the presidency, with some fearing that a Tårnet Presidency might lead to further political polarization with his past comments glorifying Våld’s dictatorship and support to the KRF terrorists behind the Ishindale Bombings. Including accusing the government for doing a purge for arresting the general involved in the attacks. Despite the presidency being largely ceremonial, there is fear of dysfunction between government and presidency if the opposition candidate is elected.

Breaking News: Tensions mounting on the Kaldrbuth - East Atlalandr as border patrols are found dead and outposts destroyed

The East Atlalandr government announced today a massive terrorist attack happened along the Kaldrbuth and East Atlalandr border. 45 soldiers were found dead, and dozens other severely injured from ambushes and traps along the border. Five outposts being completely destroyed and eight others suffering attacks from sniper fire or improved drone attacks. The massive attack along the traditionally tense border, has only increased as the government issued a martial law in the autonomous republic of Mkæniszna with plans to heavily reinforce the military garrison there.

The attack happened within one hour after the president’s death, before the East Atlalandian government officially announced the death of President Gerjikdal. Raising information security concerns across the government. The East Atlalandian military, released a statement accusing Kaldrbuth of the attack and reaffirming their claims of having nothing to-do with the Ishindale terrorist attack.

While information of the attacks has been kept close at hand by the government, East Atlalandian officials released a handful of testimonies and footage of the attack. Most of which is too gruesome to be shown to audiences. Various testimony of the attack, report that the attacks were sudden both to start and to stop. Sometimes, only a few bullets are fired before stopping. Other times, the patrolling squad was wiped out rapidly before they could radio in as was the case for several squads. Strangely according to reports, the majority of the autopsies conducted noted that most of them didn’t die from gunshot wounds. Most of them died from stab wounds or arrow wounds. Even more curiously, it seemed several of the soldiers didn’t show marks of fighting back despite the stab wounds.

The surviving outposts reported heavy sniper fire and improved drone attacks. Remote controlled cars and helicopters toys being modified to become IEDs being frequently reported across all outposts and some motorized patrols. The storm within the region of the autonomous republic made it incredibly difficult to see perpetrators of the attack and even more so with the small drones being used. No bodies of the attackers were recovered and it is believed that the terrorist retrieved the bodies before disappearing.

The known reported attack ended two hours before sunrise. The East Atlalandr government stated that they will find and punish the terrorists with the full force of the East Atlalandr military. Ordering all it’s citizens within the autonomous republic to remain at home and comply with all orders given by East Atlalandian military forces for their safety.

The Kaldrbuthian government has fully denied any involvement in the terrorist attack, with the Kaldrbuthian queen having ordered a further increase in troop deployment to the border. Stating fears of spilling over if more terrorist attacks was to occur in East Atlalandr.

Breaking News: Prince Johan and Princess Joan’s Partners revealed in a Pigeon post

Prince Johan and Princess Joan were caught kissing two members of the Frida Dynasty at their mother’s 50th Birthday Party held in the Federation. The picture was taken by the Empress of Thalor, Leilatha Morleth, who posted the picture on her Pigeon account revealing the royals kissing passionately. With the Empress having the caption: “Love is in the air!” over it. Which soon got the post viral attention as it attracted a large amount of attention from the Norgsveltian Speak World. With far more reposts than likes, with many having tagged the Royal House’s Pigeon for a response to the post. Especially many wanting an official statement from his majesty over his daughter kissing Princess Violette. With the king’s Spokesperson and Secretary, Lady Aila Ingerdatur, stating: “His Majesty is preparing an official statement on the matter.”

The reveal of Princess Joan being in an lesbian relationship has been to the shock of many in Nyveldet, with the rumors of the princess’s sexuality having been finally confirmed. With the Princess being the second Norgsveltian Royal to be revealed to be part of the LGBTQ community, with Princess Estrid and her relationship with Jarljyna of Lapiliszna, Esta the Protector. Though Esta’s popularity with young conservatives in Nyveldet and her Akuan Faith made many accept Princess Estrid’s relationship. Fatherland Party MP, Dratk Kristenson, writing an article on the Nyveldian conservative magazine ‘Unge Konservative’ asking: “Is the Royal Family turning Gay or Akuanist?”. With Kristenson arguing in favor of making members of the Royal Family decide to marry members of the opposite sex to convert to Akuanism. Arguing such an action would ensure that members of the Royal Family keep following tradition, rather than sexual debauchery.

In a reply to the article, AIP representative Ny’Esvan to the FP MP. “The Fatherland party, truly tests the limits of the Religious Bloc every chance they get. Don’t they.” In a post on Pigeon. In a follow up post, “It is very interesting how they focus on Princess Joan’s relationship with another Ulvriktruar but fail to bring up any discussion or news about Prince Johan’s own relationship. Almost as if they’re trying to imply something else again. Of course, I would never suggest our coalition partners are pushing homophobia and Anti-Akuanism. Only that Dratk Kristenson is pushing it.” Followed by a picture of Kristenson, with an alleged photoshopped picture of him holding two penguins at a zoo. Allegedly, the penguins are homosexual and having a wedding, to better booster visitors to the zoo. A claim which, Mr. Kristenson very much denies being part of such an event, and that the photos on the provided by Ny’Esvan are photoshopped and not real.

The article caught the attention of many UD MPs as well, including Former Minister of Agriculture, Eva Iservann. Who stated in a Pigeon post that: “It’s hard to see how Mr. Kristenson can call himself conservative then suggest a religious Ulvriktruar to convert because it inconvenienced him.” With similar statements being made in criticism of the article. Despite the criticism ‘Unge Konservative’ has rejected calls to remove the article, with most Fatherland Party MPs stating they do not agree with the article’s premise but supports Kristenson’s right to express his opinion.

Prince Johan’s reputation as a ladies man with an alleged history of being with several women has made many question how long his relationship with a highly Hjørdist conservative member and heiress of Frida Dynasty would last. With some wondering if the two even are together in spite of the passionate kiss.

Breaking News: The Tangrian Air Force bombs Salisian government troops in recent Separatist Offensive

Tangrian Minister of Defence, Barsi Avédatur, has confirmed reports that suggested the Tangrian Air Force supporting the separatist militias in Salisar. With Tangrian HK-22 fighter jets and Tordenfugen drones having reported to bombed several military installations owned by Salisian Army and Pro-Government militias in the Awawelat region (South East Salisar). According Mrs. Avédatur the airstrikes eliminated over 50 Salisian troops, though some reports suggest it could be higher. It also reported that the airstrikes had hit vital logistics centers for local government troops in the region. The Tangrian Government announced it would continue to conduct its “Srig Rohilt Operation” until the Salisian government recognised the independence of East Awawelat. The Commanders of the separatist militias of Birctish Defence Legion (BDL) and Blandigar Frontier Legion (BFL) have claimed their troops have won several battles against local government forces. With the leader of the BDL, Ferhad Virêvir, having proclaimed that: “National liberation has begun, we will cast out the settlers from our homeland! Death to imperialists! Long live Awawelat!”

The Salisian government has strongly condemned the recent escalation, accusing the Tangrian government of violating its sovereignty and international law. With the Salisian Army being mobilized to deal with the increased intensity from the separatists. Though miniscule Salisian Air Force yet be sent to deal with the violation of its air space. The Vistari government has condemned the airstrike and has withdrawn its ambassador from Tangrland, with the Vistari ministry of foreign affairs demanding the Tangrian government to end its air operation in Awawelat immediately.

Norgsveldet’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Viskir Tordtar, issues a statement about the escalation urging Tangrland to end the air campaign while urging the Salisian government to negotiate with the separatists. In contrast the Eyjarian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hilda Cappel, urged the Vistari government to end its support to the “ethno nationalist” regime in Salisar. With similar statements having been supported by many within the Norgsveltian left, demanding the government to support the separatists. However when asked Prime Minister Wilhelm Kirkeland simply reiterated Norgsveldet’s recognition of Salisar’s internationaly recognised borders and urged Tangrian government to: “Help find a peaceful solution to the conflict.”

The Federation of the Southern Coast of Lapérouse has remarkably been quiet on the issue, and when NNN reporters sent a request to FPM Pierre. She gave no reply, other than that the state of the Salisian government is questionable at best. The Federation’s silence have been met with remarkable surprise by many experts, with many pointing towards the Federation being one of the very few governments to recognise the Collective Republic of Awawelat together with Tangrland.

While reports vary the separatists claimed to have connected the territories held by the BDL and BFL, with the BFL commander, Valni Saûdatur, that a new offensive is being started up north to occupy all land that the separatists are claiming. According to the separatists over 10k troops were sent for the military operation that was nicknamed, Operation Frazawelat, meaning Operation Free Homeland. According to Norgsveltian intelligence over 1,5k troops have died on both sides since the offensive started back in November.

Aftermath of the airstrikes

Light green territories controled by BDL and BFL militias prior to the offensive, dark green is territories the militias claims as part of East Awawelat. Yellow is territory under Vistari Military Occupation, Purple is territory controled directly by the Salisian government. Grey is territories that disputed by rival local leaders.

According to the Matriarch and Enshrined Spirit, over 70k shrines have been rebuilt as according to the Shrine Renewal Program including mentioning the recovering of many Akuan Artifacts. The Matriarch also proclaimed that her country has also proclaimed that the country has massively increased its economic output through increased production of Nystatinne mineral reserves. Proclaiming RCEU aid and grants as vital in this development. Proclaiming that 50% of Nystatiszna’s agriculture has been modernized and standardized to the standards set by the Five Year Plan. She has also proclaimed that Nystatiszna’s extreme poverty and illiteracy has shrinked miraculously, though has stated that much more is to be done.

The Matriarch also proclaimed that the political part of the plan has been fulfilled. With her government having ended Nystatiszna’s internship program and dozens acts being passed to promote species equality. Proclaiming victory over apartheid and victory over hate, proclaiming that Nystatiszna is finally led by its “rightful” people. With Ingrid having especially lauded the passing of the Anti-Hirdist Act and the Anti-Hatred Act. Stating both as being vital for Nystatiszna’s internal security and stability. With both laws banning the promotion of content and rhetoric which the government considers Hirdist or Anti-Akuanist. Especially speciest rhetoric against kemonomimi and Akuanism. With the Matriarch proclaiming her commitment in fighting Anti-Akuanists, with her putting heavy criticism towards the Blåskovian King Carl IX. Proclaiming him to be an enemy of Akuanists everywhere. Ingrid proclaiming that the Five Year Plan is far from finished and that she will promote “Pan-Borean unity in opposition to Blåskovian Nationalism”.

The speech was met with large levels of celebration back in Nystatiszna, with large crowds in front of the Scarlet Castle kowtowing in deep respect towards the Matriarch and yelling their loyalty to the Enshrined Spirit. Despite the enthusiasm for the speech in Nystatiszna, it was met with scrutiny back home in Norgsveldet. Though some economists have questioned some of the Matriarch’s economic claims, most analysts agree that Nystatiszna’s economy has improved massively by pointing out that countries from RCEU and NCEF has had increased their importation of minerals like graphite, zinc, silver and lead from Nystatiszna. With estimates having placed it that it likely has doubled since 2021. Rather it was Ingrid’s political reforms that were met with more criticism, with some sapient rights activists claiming the Matriarch has used the Anti-Hirdist Act and Anti-Hatred Act to silence criticism of the regime. With others questioning the extensive use of the NIB in law enforcement of said acts. With Ingrid being accused of purging parts of the government and legislature to further her own control of the country. Though this has been fiercely denied.

Breaking News: The Fylkir’s Yule Speech at the Raven Temple

His Majesty, King of Norgsveldet and its Crown Realms and Head of the Gustafistic Temple, Fylkir Olav I held his annual Yule speech in the Raven Temple. Being sent live from the NNN:

Olav dressed in a traditional Gothir outfit with a Varg fur cape, inside Urth’s largest Ulvriktru Temple and with choir behind him

“Today, we celebrate a vital day. A holy day. A day celebrated with feast, and warmth. In which we celebrate for a full month, Nori’s journey for knowledge. For knowledge that was lost after the long lost Empire fell, when Ulvrikia was to be divided forever more. During which Nori saw how brutal we can be against each other, war, assault and violation of dignity. His hope was that by focusing on what we had in common, our gods, our faith, that we would not turn that bloodshed against each other. That we’d respect dignity, and that we do not let ourselves fall to our worst impulses. That we restrain ourselves, not just for the benefit of others. But also ourselves. Lessons that were already written down in our Sagas, lessons that our gods had tried to tell us. But was lost with the tragic burning of Fellgir, over a millenia of knowledge. Burned down because of conflict between two families. As such, I will spend this time mentioning the importance of Nori’s journey. The importance of his Saga.

As war on this Urth increases, as freedoms get squeezed out by those who fear it. I urge those who know the Saga to understand one thing clearly. Nori did not demand pacifism, his saga and lessons of the Allguardian is not that one shouldn’t fight. But our strength to fight, and how to fight is not always dependent on muscle. It is defined by two things. Our mind and heart. To understand that you need both wisdom and will to succeed. As Odin proclaimed to Jarl Baskir: ‘I shall not send you thousand skilled warriors for your war to be won, I will send hundreds of my most faithful who have my cunning and determination to match, and you will no enemies left to watch.’

But in any fight we must show restraint, we must show mercy. We shall never forget, we shall never forgive, but that does not mean blood needs to be shed. Only Loki and his draconic tongue benefits from unneeded carnage and spilled blood. He feeds on our worst impulses, be it rage, hatred, greed or lust. It is as such that we must oppose the regimes whose leaders have taken Loki’s tongue. It is why I urge all to not listen to that dragon tongue. Do not listen to Loki when he whispers in your ear. Shut him out. Keep him away. You can do it, and each time he kept away. The rise of hate and spilled blood is kept at bay.

But today, I say feast and keep the warmth, like Nori did all those years ago. Feast like kings and queens this day, as Odin and their ravens watch over us. Keeping Loki and his dragons away.

Happy Yule.”
