Succession Crisis Looming in UK of Tropico and Westerwent
Edition: 1
Vernil 16, 321
Written by Lomarren Correspondent Silvestro Conti



Trivenze, Lomarre | In the United Kingdom of Tropico and Westerwent (GA09) King Alonso d'Lucca and Queen Anastasia Sonovic have gotten into a serious and life threatening car accident last evening. The Couple married two years ago after the two small nations just on the Lomarren border united.

Alonso is a relative of the King of Lomarre, and Stefano has sent out his grievances to the family. However, with no children between the couple, a succession crisis may loom. The King's brother, Dominic, is married matrineally married to Countess Margareta Haggia-Scarte. Dominic would most surely go for Tropico's crown as he is the prime candidate.
Anastasia represents the Czuss ethnicity, a mix of Austlenburgian and Laddneian. (Think Czech; Germanic Slavs. :P) The next in line to the Westerwent throne is much less visible, however her older sister, married to a Westerwent General is the prime candidate.

Time will tell on the situation. We, at ADN, do not wish to speculate on the future, especially as the nation and family of the monarchs hope for a recovery. We, at ADN hope for a full recovery of the couple and a return for a more peaceful Galdea.

Other News to Note



  • The Uranium Stalemate continues to unfold, however, Lomarre's economy may remain salvageable with buyers in Galdea needing Coal and Oil.
  • The War on Poverty has begun, said the HLE's foreign minister. Caprecians however, are skeptical of this. It's assumed that this is just another reason for the HLE to expand.
  • The Oracian Hockey Tournament is expected to resume after issues with a network scandal.

Child Born, Initiative Begun
Edition: 12
January 4th, 325
Lomarren Correspondant Armando Despirto


San Mariner, Campania|
Much of the Confederation has been kept in the dark about Princess Finola's latest pregnancy with her fifth child. However, this morning she and her husband exited the hospital with their newborn son, named Nicolo. The only news we, at the AM were able to get for the last half week was that the baby was birthed a few days prematurely. However, a statement by the Palace brings us more information.

"Nicolo, although born prematurely remains very healthy. However, recent discovery shows that he has been diagnosed with trisomy 21, otherwise know as Down Syndrome. We, the royal family wish to have as much privacy with our young child as much as possible. Thank you, and Hadar & Kalor bless you."

The royal family, alongside their newborn stayed inside the palace for the rest of the week, for both Nicolo and Finola to recover. Just days after Finola had some bed rest and time with her children, she stood up to the press room to announce her initiative as the technical "First Lady" of Campania. The Princess has decided to bring forth better knowledge and awareness of the Syndrome, and has already begun donation drives to help the research hospitals in Arkaus get more funding to find the cure to the disorder.

More News to Know


  • Arkaus has recently contracted a new interceptor based fighter plane for the air force, as the older G-301 Striker has become more and more obsolete
  • Prince Giancarlo of Piedmonte was sighted with an unknown royal. More info to come in the blog.

Lomarren Commonwealth Visit Slated for this Month
Edition: 13
May 1st 326
Written by Lomarren Correspondent Silvestro Conti
Trivenze, Lomarre | High-King Stefano IV of Lomarre is going to be visiting the ex-colonies of Lomarre, Cabo de Prosperidade and Montaria during the annual Commonwealth Week of Celebration. May 16th-24th, considered Commonwealth week in Lomarre is known as the Week of Independence for CdP and Montaria.

The visit will be majorly a public one, with maybe a private meeting with the leaders of the nations as well.

The l'Estat Lliure Associat (Commonwealth) remains the oldest running commonwealth of nations that speak the same language/are former colonies. The relationship between it's states remains excellent, especially with the downfall of Loyola's dictatorship in Montaria. The dictator had chosen to leave the l'Estat Lliure Associat to avoid contact witht he Fatherland and C.d.P. With his downfall, came the PLSN and their wholehearted agreement to rejoin l'Estat Lliure Associat.

l'Estat Lliure Associat calls for a bi-annual "Olympics" between the member-states as well as student-transfer options for students from one commonwealth state to visit another at a low cost. It also states that the High-King of Lomarre is also recognized as the King of Montaria and King of Cabo de Prosperidade. Although he doesn't influence nor hold land in the nations, the citizens of both countries still patriotically hold him as their King. The President and Premiers alike also are given titles in Lomarre during their terms. Both are given the titular title of "Viceroy" when visiting Lomarre.

The High-King will be meeting alongside Premier Eillen and Vice-Premier Camilo of Montaria for the first three days of the week and will be meeting President Thiago Vargas, Prime Minister Rosalia Palmeiro e Silva, and Prince Armando Garcatos III the other three days.

ACN Blue Valkyries Back in Service

Edition: 14
June 3rd 326
Written by Lomarren Correspondent Silvestro Conti
Siezmark, Lomarre| With the new budget finished by the Aulmnary, the AC has finally brought back the Arkausan Confederation Navy Blue Valkyries, the joint Lomarren and Austlenburgian navy pilots that show off their skills at airshows. The military budget that has been reviewed constantly for the past two year over, "Uneeded spending". However, bipartisan from both sides have decided to be lax when it comes to the Valkyries. AC sources indicated that a lack of recruits joined the armed services, the only year airshows were not flying. Military officials told us that it was no coincidence and sought to bring back a pastime dating back since the first planes flew in the Galdean Skies.

We were able to talk with one of the pilots, Hans Gruebbe, a native of the Lomarren-Austlenburgian border town of Hammelstad. "It's good to be back at what we do best. We bring entertainment to patriotic Arkausans and we do it as best as we can everytime. We love to see the faces of both young and old smiling, laughing, just plain excited seeing their fellow Arkausans put up one hell of a flying spectacle." Please check http://www.ac_airshow.gov/bluevalkyries for more information.

Campania becomes Center-Stage
Posted Image
Edition: 15
September 3rd 326
Written by Lomarren Correspondent Silvestro Conti
San Mariner, Campania| From the farthest corners of the world, to just across the border, Campania's economy has been revitalized in San Mariner after ten years. Grand-Prince Lorenzo I's "Ten Year Initiative" was a huge success story for the city-state nation. Private business have found a tax free haven in the city of San Mariner, with yachts and the like in the "harbor of the world". With summer coming to a close, however, tourism will drop like it does in much of Galdea during the Fall and winter.

However, even if summer has come to a close here in Campania, doesn't mean the fun is over just yet. The Campania Grand Prix has been announced, the first time since 302 when the now exiled Princess Audra I banned the race, calling it a "way for foreign devils to enter and corrupt the holy Sopricanists". Thankfully, with her as far away from Campania as humanly possible, the Prix is back on, now that all damaged roads have been paved and repaved twice over.

This is not the only good news for the reborn Principality. The Casino industry has been revitalized over the past seven years which has brought the small city to have well balanced internal budget to rebuild itself. The revenue has saved the city from a fate of bankruptcy. Rumors also indicate a few Royals to be playing slots in Campania this year. Although it's under wraps when they enter the casinos, we'll surely see these foreign dignitaries coming. Lorenzo's Paciun policy has been rescinded as well, much to the relief of the diplomatic section of the Confederation. He has however, denied to join the group of foreign leaders to play poker. Considering he has a nation to run, five children to care for, as well as his gorgeous wife, we can understand he can't take time to play poker right now.

Clean Energy Alternatives Encouragement Act Gathers Steam
Edition: 16
December 12, 326
Denil Correspondent George Aldous


Denil, Denil |
A bill that has been on the floor for more than half a decade may soon be passed as the Alumary continues to debate the controversial Clean Energy Alternatives Encouragement Act.

The bill, which promotes, through monetary incentives, the development of clean energy alternatives in the Confederation. States would be encouraged to invest in clean energy, such as solar, wind, hydroelectric, or nuclear power alternatives to "dirty" power. This bill has been viewed with a great deal of scrutiny from the populace in industry-based Lomarre and Galeae, though their opposition may soon prove inadequate to keep the bill from passing.

Due to its controversial nature, the bill has been plagued with setbacks and delays. Opposition leaders have relied on any tactic possible to delay the bill, and debate on it has been limited. That being said, a coalition of Alums, led by Stetson Alum William Graisely, have demanded that the bill be debated and voted on. Graisely was outspoken in his support of the bill: "This is not, as the opposition states, a bill that would force clean energy down the throats of our constituents. It would only provide them with incentives needed to give clean energy a foot in the door. Building a nuclear plant is not a simple endeavor, and states would benefit greatly from receiving help to develop them, among other things."

The bill has gathered quite a following in the recently elected Alumary, and many of the more vehement opponents are no longer in seats. The Alumary is expected to vote on the bill within the month, and it is expected to pass. This is seen as a success by many, after many long years of toil.

Controversial Television Commercial Tells Denilians to "Make Love for Arkaus"
Edition: 17
February 4, 327
Denil Correspondent George Aldous


Denil, Denil |
A television commercial originally aired three weeks ago has found a lot of press recently due to its controversial subject matter.

The commercial, created and paid for by the Denilian Population Bureau, makes a plea for Denilians to "Make Love for Arkaus", or in simpler terms: breed. Chairman of the DPB Willem Standish says the commercial was not intended to offend anyone, and was simply there to remind people that their civic duties include more than voting and paying taxes.

"Arkaus is not a small nation," Standish says, "But children are our future. and ensuring that we have a stable future involves having them. Denil's birth rate is abhorently low compared to other states in the Confederation, and so we at the DPB felt it necessary to release a sort of 'public service announcement' to address the matter."

The commercial has seen some opposition due to its risque subject matter, but most of the complaints have largely fallen on deaf ears, as the commercial has received rave reviews and currently possesses viral status on many social media outlets accross the globe, no doubt due to its subject.

Thirteen States Make Plans to Invest in Clean Energy

Digital model of the nuclear plant planned to provide power to Lienes and the surrounding area.

Lienes, Balzary |
Thirteen states have decided to make investments into clean energy , six of them investing in nuclear energy, following the passing of the Clean Energy Alternatives Encouragement Act.

In Lienes, plans are being made to produce clean, efficient, and safe nuclear energy to provide power to the largest city in the Confederation, government officials say. The decision was made following the passing of the CEAEA, which provides incentives to states that choose to invest in clean energy, earlier this year. A spokesperson for the project says that "this is the future of energy for Balzary." While only one plant is planned currently, the government in Lienes hopes to have the entire state powered by clean energy, including nuclear, wind, solar, and hydro, by 340.

The total list of states that have announced investments in clean energy include Austlenburg, Denil, Tarleton, Balzary, Wilmington, Almania, Haverford, Hillingdon, Fremont, Anndover, Fenridge, Ashford, and Walford. Of those states, Austlenburg, Balzary, Denil, Fendrige, Wilmington, and Tarleton have plans to invest in nuclear power.

Essig Nuclear Plant Construction, Among Others, Faced with Delays
Edition: 19
March 7, 328
Austlenburgan Correspondent Ulrich Eriksen


Posted Image
The Essig Plant has been under construction since earlier this year, but the project has been delayed by improper procedure.

Essig, Austlenburg |
Construction delays continue to plague the Essig nuclear plant, which is expected to provide power to the city of Vundt in Austlenburg. Several other plants see the same issues.

In the Confederation, improper construction procedure and ignorance have plagued the sites of several new nuclear plants. The director of the Essig plant's construction team, Mr. Lance Dunlevy, a Florinthian, says that the primary causes of the delays are "a simple lack of understanding of the quality needed to produce a nuclear plant. Sometimes the concrete isnt set right, or its done in a lax manner and we have to redo the entire thing. It's still early in construction however, and I have confidence that we can get back in shape."

The Austlenburgian government does not agree with Mr. Dunlevy, and in the wake of widespread delays across Austlenburg they have taken the initiative of hiring more foreign nuclear experts from across the globe. Austlenburgian press secretary Dahk Manrich says "of the [nine] plants seeing delays, seven of them are in Austlenburg. This could be a situation of us biting off more than we could chew, and we're not afraid to admit it. The Austlenburg government has approached several foreign companies about providing advisors for our construction in order to provide the expertise we need. We had some, but clearly the ones we had were inadequate.

Time will tell if the extra efforts will be enough to get the delayed constructions back on track.

Detectatia to join the Arkausan Pact and GFTECA

Denil Correspondent George Aldous


Denil, Denil |
The Federal Republic of Detectatia has decided to join both the Arkausan Pact and the Galdean Free Trade and Economic Cooperation Agreement after negotiations with the Confederation earlier this month.

This is the culmination of increased Detectatian involvement in foreign affairs after many decades of relative isolation. The Detectatian President, Andrew Roneril, has met both support and opposition from his native Detectatians for this, but it was not too much for Roneril to sign his largest deal yet. Detectatia joins Arkaus, Beaulieu & Neuvant, the Dahlkive, and Oertha in the Arkausan Pact and joins the AC, Beaulieu & Neuvent, Laustenburg, and Oertha in GFTECA.

Alumary Discusses Potential Confederate Space Program
Edition: 23
October 3, 328
Denil Correspondent George Aldous


Denil, Denil |
The Alumary turned many intellectual heads yesterday when they broached the topic of a Confederate Space Agency yesterday morning.

During general debate and discussion on the Alumary floor yesterday, the topic turned to the possibility of an Arkausan space program. This has piqued the interest of scientists and other intellectuals across the Confederation, as this is the first time this has been brought up outside of academic discussion.

University of Almania Professor of Astrophysics Frank Reshean was remarkably excited when asked about the topic."These were only discussions, mind, but the fact that this is even being discussed shows marked improvement in the Confederations interest in space and science in general. A space program would make me very happy indeed."

Alum Giorgio Tavechi, the one who brought up the topic, says that "this is the future of Confederate technological development. Others have been beyond our planet, and I feel that arkausan minds can do more than anyone has before. This is something that the Alumary should be very seriously considering."

As per usual, a decision on the topic shouldn't be expected for some time, but the topic has been brought up, and it's only a matter of time before brave Arkausans leave our atmosphere.

Foreign Affairs Councillary Makes Statement on Carpathia and D'Hara; Withdraws from Carpathian Embassy
Edition: 24
December 4, 328
Denil Correspondent George Aldous


Posted Image
Edmund Lisle, the current Councillar of Foreign Affairs, had strong words for Carpathia and Moldova.

Denil, Denil |
Councillar of Foreign Affairs Edmund Lisle scheduled a press conference this morning to make several key announcements regarding several foreign states.

"The Confederation will be closing and evacuating its embassy in Carpathia and Moldova within the week." Lisle announced right away. "We're doing this for several reasons. Many of you know about the recent events surrounding the Pravomoc Embassy in Bucharest - that is just the tip of the iceberg. The Confederation has noted, with increasing concern, the recent decisions that the Carpathian government has been making with regards to sovereign states, and we feel that their streak of militancy, animosity, and outright aggressiveness needs to be stopped. Our list of grievences with the government in Bucharest is long, and subsequently we do not wish to associate ourselves with the Carpathian regime any longer, and thus are removing ourselves from their presence."

"Safety is certainly one of the reasons. The fact that a militia can advance on an embassy with military-grade armor is a fallacy, and one that we do not wish to condone any longer. This is not a new problem with regards to embassies in Bucharest. In the last decade we have also seen a militia attack another foreign embassy, that of Abere, and that resulted in the death of an ambassador. This sort of situation could happen to any state so we encourage all governments to strongly consider leaving Bucharest with haste, at least until the Carpathian government decides that it's rules must be changed. Regardless of whether or not the Carpathians punish the militia in question, the fact that a militia can possess the types of hardware that they do in Carpathia is an accident waiting to happen, and until the government in Bucharest comes to that same understanding, I'm afraid we will not be doing business with them."

"With regards to D'Hara: the Confederation can not believe that the Carpathian authorities would even consider authorizing the use of nuclear weapons, regardless of the situation. The Confederation has also decided to condemn the D'Haran government, if you could call it a government. Thankfully, we have no embassies in D'Hara, or we would evacuate those as well."

The Confederation has not banned travel to Carpathia and Moldova but it has asked Arkausan citizens to avoid the state as much as possible, as it is deemed "dangerous". The Embassy is expected to be evacuated within the week.

Morkren Internal Bank lends wings to Olsanburg-Mitecus Airport expansion
Edition: 25
January 23 329
Written by Austlenburgan Correspondent Ulrich Eriksen

Artist Impression of the New Aiport



Olsanburg, Austlenburg| The Bank has signed off one of the biggest infrastructure loans in Galdea to help expand the Austlenburgan capital's international hub. Some twenty years after the opening of its doors, this " unity project" is set to contribute to the expansion of trans-Galdean networks.

Morkren has approved a A1 billion loan with a further A1.4 billion being provided by a number of local banks making this one of the biggest infrastructure financing operations in Galdea. The loan will make it possible to expand and upgrade the existing Olsanburg-Mitecus Airport into a major transport hub.

"The new Olsanburg-Mitecus International Airport (OMI) is a key Austlenburgan project financed by the MIB (Morkren). As the airport of Austlenburg's capital and the greater region, and as part of the trans-Galdean networks, the MIB has accorded OMI particular priority," MIB Vice-President Kollatz Eriksen commented on the occasion of the second loan agreement's signature on 22 July 329RE. A first part of the loan agreement covering A 400m had already been signed in December 328 RE- the second loan was for the remaining A600m.

The MIB's financing is set to equip OMI with the necessary capacity to meet the expected growth in air traffic that it will face due to the closure of the other inner-city airport, Bostiun.This project is to create a single aviation hub that will cater for the entire needs of the Olsanburg and the surrounding area.

At the same time, concentrating air traffic in a single location outside the city, will deliver significant environmental benefits as well as improve safety for the people of the Olsanburg. The Bank anticipates a further positive impact on the economic development of other parts of Austlenburg. Improved accessibility by air and direct as well as indirect job creation are among the immediate benefits for these regions gained through the project.

New A3.5 billion Airport to be built in Herlev
Edition: 26
February 5 329
Written by Austlenburgan Correspondent Ulrich Eriksen

Design for the future Airport



Olsanburg, Austlenburg| Less than a week after news filtered out of the expansion of the Olsanburg-Mitecus airport expansion. Construction of a new international airport in Herlev is announced. It is slated to be the city's first major airport and construction is expected to begin in six months time, according Glen Beache, the cities mayor.

The Argle International Airport, named for an area and town on Austlenburg's southern coast, will replace the current Dometun Regional Airport by late 332RE and will open up the city and southern reaches of Austlenburg to nonstop and direct flights from nations across Oracia

"News of our first international airport with its world-class design is already sparking new investments," Beache said. "We're confident that improving our accessibility will lift our visibility in our key markets."

The A3.5 billion project is the largest in the cities's history. The 1475-hectare site will feature two runways, which are 3,600 and 3,200 meters long respectively. It will also be able to accommodate Saiku Aeronautical jets and other large aircraft from around Oracia. It will have a 450,000 square metres (4,800,000 sq ft) terminal building. Once completed, the airport will be able to handle 30.1 million passengers per year, and 40 million if a second proposed terminal is built in the future.

Once the new airport is completed, the 510-hectare site of the Dometun Regional Airport, in operation since 260RE, will be converted for use solely for domestic flights and private jets.

Financing for the venture included $40 million in land purchased from local home owners and business in the area. With this recent announcement, it is believed that the government of Prime Minister Carlsen is getting a head start on the projected growth of tourism in the Confederation, and is posing Austlenburg to be the gateway into the Confederation, with Olsanburg-Meticus, Argle International, and Sir Docrun International in Aetinheim to be the support beams for this future growth.



  • Confederate Alumary begins discussion on the ballistic missile shield proposal put forth by a group of Lomarren Alumaries.
  • New Airport expected to create some ten of thousands of job for Herlev and surrounding areas.
