Changes in Government - May 1816

As the nation settles in for a hopefully peaceful era after gaining independence, the lethargic Council is shaken to the core. Out of the nine members, the representative of Caracas, a young stunning man, delivers a fiery speech on the need to strengthen both the position of Nueva Granada on the international stage and its economy.

The other members of the Council hears him out. He suggests further cooperation with the United States and the Kingdom of Italy, noting the need for the abolishment of slavery, also alluding to making the people freer than ever before. “Independence should be sought for all nations in South America,” he adds.

Recognising the lack of a leader leading to unsatisfactory results in governmental affairs, the Council unanimously decides to elect Simón Bolívar as the Prime Councillor, Primer Consejero.

Large reforms are expected in the coming years. Long live Nueva Granada, long live Primer Consejero Simón Bolívar.

France to Blockade Republican forces in Spain

    As a commitment to both the familial ties between the thrones of Spain and France, along with the First Royal Army being sent to assist King Ferdinand VII, a fleet of 90 vessels, consisting of 20 Ships of the Line (3 First Rates, 6 Second Rates, 21 Third Rates), 30 Corvettes, and 40 Sloops. While the goal is to starve the Spanish rebels from material, the vessels attempting to run the blockade will be dealt with as pirates and criminals against the French Crown. Vessels intercepted and willing to submit to a cargo check will then be redirected under escort to either a Portuguese or French Port and allowed to do business with local authorities.

Patent and Implementation of the Delacroix [Bessemer] Process of Steel Processing

    After years of study and experimenting on small scale Benjamin Delacroix was able to discover and successfully recreate a process of separating steel from pig iron outside of the expensive and time intensive methods used by artisans and skilled smiths in the past. The French Crown has recognized the patent as well as the need to push the process to its potential and has begun constructing massive manufactories across Paris, Nantes, Bordeaux, Antwerp, Brussels, and Nancy of the new machines following the Delacroix process to cradle the spark that will revolutionize the world.

Emperor Kōkaku Leads Procession to Iwashimizu Hachimangū Shrine - March 1814

    In a majestic display of Imperial reverence, His Imperial Majesty, entrusted with the divine responsibility as the head of the Shinto faith, led a procession of priests and Shogunate officials through the streets of Kyoto. The purpose of this sacred undertaking was to offer profound thanks to Hachiman, the God of War and the Emperor's Divine Ancestor, for the triumphant victory of the Shogunate Navy over a Portuguese fleet off the coast of Macau.

    In the radiant glow of Imperial regalia, the procession, a manifestation of the spiritual unity between the Imperial House and the Shogunate, traversed the hallowed paths towards the Iwashimizu Hachimangū Shrine, nestled amid the tranquil mountains surrounding Kyoto.

    The recent naval victory, where the Shogunate forces valiantly repelled the perfidious Westerners attempting to reclaim the city, was recognized as a manifestation of divine intervention by Hachiman. His Majesty, embodying both the temporal and spiritual leadership of the realm, deemed it fitting to express gratitude to the kami whose sacred presence guarded the nation in its time of need.

The Carmiglio Conspiracy and Burning of the New York Masonic Lodge - October 10, 1818

On the afternoon of October 10, 1818, a riot erupted in the heart of Manhattan. The affair came to a head following a speech given by New York State Senator Vernon van Krued at a street corner two city blocks from the Grand Masonic Lodge of New York. The rousing firebrand, who is also the youngest member of the State Senate at 29 years of age, called openly for the immediate destruction of the edifice, denouncing the Freemasons as a "pack of mystics with no good place in our society."

As the Senator continued through his speech, the crowd to which he spoke grew in size considerably, attracting workmen from the Orville Brothers Fabricant. In tandem, he expanded the subject of his polemic to members of the Federalist Party, whom he accused of doing the bidding of the Masons in New York. Soon thereafer, he claimed to have knowledge of a conspiracy within the city's government led by the Gulliver Carmiglio, a Swiss émigré and aide to New York City Mayor Cadwallader Colden.

Carmiglio, the Senator alleged, was a Freemason who plotted to poison Mayor Colden and orchestrate what van Krued described as a "violent arrest," of the city with the help of several, unnamed politicians. Sparking outrage, the accusations stirred the crowed into a frenzy, as the onlookers marched to the nearby lodge, demanding entry to the secret society's chapter.

Emerging from the building, several members attempted to calm the crowd while keeping them out. The situation escalated, however, when Oliver Anderson, an official of the lodge, insisted that "we have naught to withhold from your eyes worthy of your trouble," which the mob seemingly interpreted as an invitation inside. Local officers of the law either stood by or joined them, as the building was flooded with persons and ransacked. After sunset, a fire was reported to have started inside, allegedly by the crowd.

Evacuating rapidly, one person was killed in the fire, which soon grew into an inferno as local firemen struggled to extinguish it. Accusing the Freemasons of setting the center alight to "hide more secrets," policemen took several members of the lodge into detainment who were beaten nearly to death by the riotous crowd, who cheered with merriment at the brilliant scene of destruction.

In the wake of the affair, Mayor Colden urged New Yorkers to remain tranquil, acquiescing that van Krued's allegations will soon be investigated, as the activities of Mr. Carmiglio are scrutinized.

The Qing Dynasty of Bogs and mountain slopes

**Fast times at Qingmont High**

Succession succession that's what the court does
after spending so much time wrapped up in a fuzz
there is a ton to post and not a lot of time
But unfortunately not all can be granted the lime
Our beloved reformer, the mighty Jiaqing
has passed from this earth, this heavenly thing
And with Daoguang in charge, there is much to be done
Life in the Great Qing will start to get fun
Continue the great Emperor's reforms and strive to do better
So that every Chinese man has a wool sweater
But in all seriousness, change is good
much like our abundance of food

We're hoping that peace may be be maintained
because we all get rich and rights retained
The Daoguang Emperor wishes the world well in his quest for reform
As our young farmers march about their new dorms
Among these laws that we wish to enact
the repealing of the Examination test to be exact
Manchu meritocracy itself is rich
And Manchu governance has gone off without a hitch

We wish the world well, and hope to trade
European goods for Chinese things quality made.

Everyone, BOPDR's next debate will be on immigration. It will be at 9:00 AM AEST Sunday, or 6:00 PM EST (I think. That could be CST) Saturday. The specific topic should be 'In what cases is increased immigration a good thing?'. If you would like to sign up to participate in the debate, telegram me about it, and I will add your name to the list.
