“Emigdio Noguera, Minister of Foreign Affairs for the Republic of Manoblanca, you may make your opening statement.”
“Thank you, President Ureña.”
The old diplomat steps up to the podium, clearing his throat
“Honorable Representatives, in the last few weeks, the Republic of Manoblanca and it’s people have been unfairly accused of causing economic instability in the Federation of the Mirindads, a neighboring country that I believed Manoblanca had a cordial relationship with. Clearly, I was wrong.
The President of the Federation has made many accusations against us, baseless accusations. Whether it be that we are purposely sending migrants to the Mirindads or the claim the Manoblanca’s government has collapsed, these claims have harmed our reputation on the international stage. I am here today to reaffirm what the President of Manoblanca has said already many times before; that Manoblanca is not responsible for this crisis, nor is its government collapsing.
Furthermore, I would like clarification on why the Mirinian coast guard vessel was in Manoblancan waters, and why it had surveillance equipment onboard. It makes it seem like this vessel was scouting Manoblanca for its defenses, to prepare for a potential invasion. I do hope that myself and my fellow countrymen at home are wrong, but the evidence is there.”
“Pardon my interruption Minister, but would you please show to the Assembly what evidence you may have?”
“Gladly, Señor Presidente.”
The Minister’s assistants prepare a projector to use, while the Assembly watches in silence. After a few minutes, the assistants step back, and the Minister starts presenting
“As you can see by these pictures, there are video cameras, maps of Manoblanca, and even a drone that I feel the Mirinians planned on using to get an aerial view of the island. Naval authorities are also in the process of questioning the detained crew for answers, but we have yet to get any from them.”
“Is that all Minister?”
“Yes, Señor Presidente.”
“Well then, thank you for that opening statement, we now ask you to step down from the podium and call forward the Mirinian delegation.”
The Mirinian Permanent Representative to the GCO, Maximino Meléndez, steps up to the podium
“Honorable Representatives, I am here today to prove the deception of the Republic of Manoblanca and its tyrannical president, Joaquin C. Juárez.
To begin, let us discuss the refugee crisis. Thousands have fled Manoblanca to neighboring nations, such as the Federation of the Mirindads, to prevent prosecution from the totalitarian government that has taken hold. These people have been forced from their homes by a dictatorship, and have caused a great deal of strain to the Federation’s government. These innocent souls deserve to be in their nation, free from the one-party state that has ruled over their islands for so long. Instead they are scattered, far away from home.
Nations are unable to cope with the amount of refugees that are fleeing Manoblanca, and many have simply turned them away because they are unable to provide for them. But the Federation hasn’t, as it is dear to our principles to welcome all into our nation should they need to. Our sympathy however, has caused massive damage to the Federation’s economy, and has also led to a large crime wave in our nation, as Manoblancans who can’t find work resort to stealing and killing to survive.
It is saddening that this crisis has started. The Federation and other neighboring nations have attempted to contact Manoblanca about the refugees, and yet we have had little progress in these negotiations.”
“Representative Melendez, we have heard this before, and while it is saddening to see, it is not our priority at the moment. Our priority now is to ease tensions between the Federation of the Mirindads and the Republic of Manoblanca, not to debate the refugee crisis. Please finish up your opening statement.”
“Of course, Señor Presidente. As you all know, a coast guard vessel belonging to the Federation of the Mirindads was detained unlawfully by the Republic of Manoblanca. We demand that it and it’s crew are returned to us immediately and that reparations for this incident are handed out to the crew’s families.”
“Thank you, Representative. The Assembly shall now be free to voice their opinions and to suggest a compromise.”
Silence
“I shall take the silence of the Assembly to mean that there is nothing the Assembly wishes to add. Very well then, the Assembly will now take an hour break and reconvene at…” Ureña checks his watch “… 1:00 PM today on the dot. Unless any Representative has anything to add, I will now dismiss the Assembly for this one hour break.”

General The second joint SA Military Exercise - code named 'Alpine Based' is scheduled to start tomorrow on the 18th of May 2022, in Salcanceacy. Citing delays due to bad weather slowing logistical transport, the Military Exercise was delayed in order to give all participants an equal footing in the exercise.

Leon arrives at the stand, a somewhat icelike look on his face as opposed to the rather cheerful expression he had given beforehand. He rubbed his eyes, before clearing his throat:
"I would like to formally thank Senator Hill for allowing me to take up a position on his cabinet. I will be forever indebted to him and the United Party for providing me another chance at being within the halls of Senate. Now, I shall recite the Imperial Oath once again:
"Forthwith, and for all my natural life henceforth, I swear I shall serve my immortal master, the Emperor of Jocospor, and His Confederation of Corrupt Dictators to the greatest extent of my faculties. I shall lead with distinction, with fortitude and with integrity. Always, I will obey the authorities that command me. Always, I will strictly adhere to the laws of my Confederation. Always, I will strive to advance the Emperor, the Shadow Cult, the Confederation, and the principles of dictatorial government. Should I fail in these endeavors, or act seditiously, ignorantly or slothfully, I declare my regional titles forfeit and myself susceptible to just punishment. So help me."
"I thank you all for your time." [i]Leon then takes his papers off the podium, and goes to sit back down, just staring at the wall parallel from him.
In a dramatic conclusion to the trial of notorious 'General' Oofler, the jury reached a unanimous verdict.
"This court finds you GUILTY" *bonk*
*Disgruntled protest!*
"Order in the courtroom!" *bonk bonk* "YOUR SENTENCE is TWO MONTHS community service at the University of Castillia, as an academia aide in SOCIAL EQUITY theory. You will also have to pay a fine of $200."
*Raucous applause!* . . . Editor's note: Oofler has been convicted of waging a war of aggression against the Feuraxian government, and treason. Apparently the nation does not seem to care.
I'm nervous putting up a Post in the RMB What if it interrupts the Roleplay? I would be happy to do RP and play a role But is there any rules to follow? I would love to actually do something in the Region instead of being afk (Since my after exam homework are finish) - From Senator of East Amen Zamend 𝕸𝔞𝔯𝔠𝔬 𝕷𝔬𝔭𝔢𝔷
Somewhere in the depths of the Shy Guy embassy in Vocyrae, Senator Guy sits in his dark bedroom. His white mask is set aside on his desk, and he smokes a Utopian cigar; a pleasure few of the diplomatic staff get to enjoy in this day and age. As the sun sets behind the Confedereichstag, the desk phone rings.
"Hello?"
A low chuckle echoes from the receiver, and Senator Guy stiffens.
"Hello Senator. It has been a while since I have heard your voice. How has Vocyrae been treating you?"
The senator speaks through gritted teeth, "Vocyrae has been treating me well enough. What do you want?"
"Just to talk to you, dear Senator. A moment of your time is all that I ask."
"Spit it out then. I happen to be very busy at this time."
"Oh not here, friend. Tell me, do you remember what Shy Guy Falls is like during the spring? To my knowledge it has been a while since you have last been in Shy Guy Nation. In a week's time, I want you to meet me there, in front of all the construction work in the middle of Victory Square. We have much to discuss."
The sentence seemed more like a command than a request, and after a second, the line went dead. Senator Guy leaned back, rubbed his eyes, and let out a deep sigh. He had work to do.
After careful and considered deliberation with my Cabinet, I humbly request your most venerable opinion about certain parts, specifically regional taxation, of the budgets I wish to produce and pass in the Imperial Senate. As a result of the counsel of my Cabinet, the following questions have been created and I earnestly ask for your opinion.
1. What do you believe the Confederation should prioritise, considering we are entering an age of liberalisation?
2. What should the Confederation cut back on, considering the cabinet's desire to streamline the Confederation Government?
3. Do you believe that the current taxation system should be reformed into a progressive model, considering the liberalising economy of the Confederation?
I hope to have somewhat entertained your majesty with this telegram and hope from the bottom of my heart that I am able to hear your response.
I pray for your continued health and prosperity,
Your loyal servant,
President Darcy J. Hill."

Oofler to hold lectures Since the beginning of Oofler's community service sentence at the prestigious Castillia University, sales of his manifesto; 'The Yellow Book' have skyrocketed in popularity. Everyday while walking the campus, Oofler has to put up with hundreds of admiring students constantly imploring him to elaborate on certain chapters in his controversial book. After intense public pressure, the Vice Chancellor of Castillia University has agreed to give Oofler the stage as an indefinite 'guest lecturer' in SOCIAL EQUITY. The Lecture hall calendar includes titles such as; 'Systematic racism against Noobs, Why Feuraxia needs a third Oofsurgency, How to dismantle Usean Capitalism, The Bank's Fascist Shadow' and many more provocative titles. It is anticipated Oofler will have to do several repeats of each lecture per day to meet demand.

GIU "WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE IS NO PROGRESS?!?!?!" Helena screams at a TV screen, displaying what looks like a bunker. Marshal Reading's face is visible in the foreground of the video. "You are being reassigned soon for political reasons. Hazelwood's orders directly." There is some screaming from the background of the video, as well as gunshots, and the bunker shakes, presumably from an explosion. "The situation has devolved. The enemy are clearly more prepared than we expected." "FIX IT!" "I'M TRYING!" There's an uncomfortable silence as the two stare at each other. Interrupted by faint gunfire in the distance. "Look, I don't have the troops. You don't have the troops. This war isn't ending within a decade." "Stop calling it a war. It's a Special Military Operation." "You can call it whatever you want, but I'm standing four miles from a major city and suffering artillery fire from a hostile force. This is a war. Probably a civil war at that. Renaming it won't change that." More silence, more gunfire. "I need reinforcements." "There are no spare divisions on the planet." "Then go off planet." "No." "Bu-" "I'm not begging the region for soldiers to help us kill some disorganized gangs of idealistic youth." "Has anyone ever mentioned you have a nasty habit of understating every problem? The enemy is organized, is like mafias and cartels, aided by fanatical youth. But fine, don't call fellow region member. This war will go on forever then." "FINE!" Helena types into an interface on the table and the screen turns off.
