"Good evening, citizens of Zululand and citizens of the world. Today the Kingdom of Zululand has entered a state of war against the Empire of South Africa. This wicked entity will finally meet its end at the hands of the proud people of free Africa. From the beginning of its history the Empire has been a vile affront to the sacred soil and memories of Africa. Established by the evil Trilateral Commission, the Empire illegally seized the homeland of African people, to enrich the corrupt imperialist warlord, the Emperor Felipe. The Empire then opportunistically allied itself to the Catholic Church, hiding behind the so-called Holy League, preventing the AFrican people from reclaiming their birthright to a free and sovereign homeland. The Papal regime has refused to punish Felipe's atrocious sins and crimes against Africa, instead protecting this war criminal from justice. As we are now true African Catholic Christians, it is our sacred duty to destroy the Empire and their heretical Roman allies. Today the Kingdom of Zululand, allied with the Empire of Syawla, has start the final campaign to destroy the evil presence of the Empire. I have ordered the immediate invasion of the Orange River Valley and our armies are making rapid progress against the confused and demoralized enemy. The brave sons of Zululand and Syawla will finally restore justice to this land and restore dignity to the people of Africa." Radio address from King Menelik of Zululand ****** Southern Africa has once again been struck by war, as over 200,000 Zulu soldiers poured across the border into the ESA, having mobilized and maneuvered for weeks in anticipation of the war. With old Soviet military hardware, the Zulus are in good spirits, and have been hardened by almost continuous warfare in the region for the past generation. The Zulus are faced by Imperial forces, likewise a ragtag bunch with second hand equipment, but with the fierce discipline and fighting spirit accorded from religious zeal and decades of combat experience. This conflict, pitting the schismatic Zulus and Syawlans against the Roman Catholic ESA, represents the clashing of religions, national interests, and the personal ambitions of the opposing sides' leaders. ****** The ESA appeals for all Holy League members for assistance against the schismatics and heretics from Zululand and Syawla. The ESA humbly urges Neo-Macedonia to forget and forgive any quarrels in the past between the two nations, and to join together today as faithful defenders of Roman Catholicism against sinners and schismatics. |

Syawlan troops have entered the Limpopo region on way to war with South Africa. The Syawlan army demands that the UN surrender control of the region to Syawlan troops for duration of the conflict. Syawlan air forces have already begun bombarding targets in the ESA territory. |

OOC: I am not entering another war. As you may have read from my posts in the Israel thread, I am solely concentrating on Europe at the moment. Thus, Catholic Europe will not help the ESA and the Pope is not going to order the Holy League to help the ESA. And, anyway, a genocide of the ESA Catholics may help to bring things on my side against the schismatics. |

Syawlan troops have landed in Zululand. They are being deployed to strike through into the ESA with their Zulu allies. Commanders have been urged to co-operate as much as possible without endangering Syawlan troops. Strict orders have also been circulated to prevent soldiers from breaking the rules of engagement. |

Syawlan and Zulu troops are engaged in fierce fighting just inside the borders of the ESA. Casualties are high and both sides appear to be taking no prisoners. Local villages have been evacuated and are being used as artillery bases by both sides. It is becoming increasingly obvious to all that Syawlan and Zulu troops are not going to have things exactly their way. |

OOC: What? lol How can Neo-Macedonia do what it wants if it's being told what it can and can't do? No offense that statement just sounded funny. IC: NMN: Neo-Macedonia News The 500,000 troops stationed at the border between Neo-Macedonia and the ESA have as of yet, seen any real action. The occupied zone reports the same so Neo-Macedonia has yet to enter into any engagement with either the ESA or the schism nations. That changed today, however when a press released document stated that King Alexander has ordered that the troops begin to push forward into the ESA and help in taking, what he referred to as "the enemy in sheeps clothing" down. In response to this thousands of Neo-Macedonians hit the streets in protest stating that the King was not performing the will of God, but he on mortal ambitions. There has been no response from the Imperial palace as of yet. Word also reached us, that the Imperial Senate vote in favor of this action. In response, one Senate was killed today in a protest in front of the Imperial Senate building. Security in that area has been heighten to deal with the millions that are expected to hit the streets in the coming weeks. This has been an NMN report. |

OOC: The ESA soldiers dressed up like boats? :unsure: IC: Let me be the first to denounce the actions of King Alexander, who only by God's grace still has a nation to rule. He has betrayed the Church and allied with the forces of Satan, who is no doubt overjoyed that he has managed to convert one who has been such a good Catholic in the past. However, we refuse to stand behind any nation who would act so treacherously. As of now, all forces allocated to help secure the Neo-Macedonia fronteir have been recalled. If Neo-Macedonia does not repent, I am discussing with the Emperor the possibility of cutting off trade and relations. If this happens we will expect full reperation for the lives lost and supplies given to Neo-Macedonia. --Governor VonEpstein |

OOC: That is fine with me as you can tell they have started to do just that already. I'm not going to have anything like a "civil war" on my hands but enough protests to make themselves out to be a large annoyance. After the Schism war is over however the Queen will take back the Kingdom and of course beg for God's and the Holy Father's forgiveness. |

Well, I will leave it until more decisive action has been taken by the General (it is a General isn't it), such as blatant disregard for the Pope's decree on the matter. |

OOC: You seem confused? Zululand is the schismatic (with me)! IC: Syawlan troop have struck a decisive blow in the battle on the ESA's borders. Special Forces have captured an outpoost to the east of the front, causing massive casualties to ESA forces, as well as opening up the possibility for an outflanking attack on their forces, who are now very securely dug in along the frontline. Along the rest of the line, ESA resistance remains stiff. |

Zululand thanks the nation of Tonguska for their support in the war. United, the free people of Africa will be able to drive out the imperialists and dictators who blight this continent. --- There are mixed reactions in Zululand in response to Neo-Macedonia's actions. Although many are pleased that there is another African nation joining in the war against the ESA, many are alarmed that the Neo-Macedonians are merely strengthening their grip on occupied lands in the eastern part of SOuth Africa, which includes lands claimed by both the ESA and Zululand. --- In the central theate of operations, ESA resistance was feriocious in the Orange River valley and after four days of nonstop charges against ESA positions, Zulu forces have fallen back to near the Zulu border, driven back by the good coordination of the ESA militias. However the ESA was unable to folow up in pursuit thanks to the brilliant covering actions of Col. Ezekiel Iloka, a Nigerian merecenary for Zululand. Col. Iloka and his corps of 3,000 motorcycle-riding guerillas harrassed the ESA colums, by staging brilliant raids against ESA supply lines, tricking the ESA through ingeniously placed false communications transmissions, shooting down more than 50 ESA helicopters, and other such exploits, thus singlehandedly preventing the ESA army from taking advantage of the Zulu retreat. Iloka has earned a nickname amongst the ESA soldiers: "Ezekiel the Demon." Zulu strategists have decided, instead of directly fighting the combined ESA armies in the center, they will join up with Syawlan forces in the northeast. Zulu Troops have already begun circumventing the PRetoria defense line. The Zulus are trekking through the sparesely ppulated Drakensburg Mountains, a 5-day march to the Syawlan lines. To protect the flanks, mobile guerilla forces will try to prevent ESA offensive against the marching armies, and a massive diversionary atack is being planned against the ESA in the west.. It is anticipated that within a month, at least 400,000 ZUlus will be able to combine forces with the Syawlans near the Limpopo River. Meanwhile the meager United Nations forces in the area have withdrawn to encampents in various cities in Limpopo; they lack the manpower to fight against the roaming armies. the UN continues to condemn all sides of the conflict but the UN Limpopo expedition currently lacks the resources to take a firm stand against the belligerent forces. |

NMN: Neo-Macedonian News Another war report was released to the press today write by King Alexander himself. It stated that while most of the ESA forces have been occupied by Zulu and Syawlian campaigns, Neo-Macedonian troops have been able to bring more areas of the ESA under Neo-Macedonian protection. The King states in his report that this is only a temporary occupation and that when the rightful ruling nation of South Africa, the Zululand takes control the occupied areas will be returned to it's people. The reports always gives news to a show of good faith operation that was a success for Neo-Macedonian troops. It's been no secret that many of the populace in Zululand believe that Neo-Macedonia's involvement in the war was merely a ploy to strength the nations hold on the already occupied region of the ESA, areas which are reported to also have Zulu claims. In a grand operation Neo-Macedonia has secured an area between the Neo-Macedonian occupied region and the Zululand to create a high defended supply route to help ship supplies to both Zululand and Syawla. It is hoped that this move by King Alexander will prove to the Zululand and all other critics that Neo-Macedonia is in the war to end the evil rule of the ESA. As ESA rebellions in the form of ESA guerillas continue to plague the Neo-Macedonian troops within the new occupied area, Neo-Macedonia troops still within the Capital City have civil problems to deal as well. Catholics throughout the Kingdom are still in outrage over the decision to join the war. All believe that is was in fact the will of the once beloved King Alexander and not the will of God that Neo-Macedonia entered the war. Though no causalities have been reported as of yet aside from the one Senator killed last week, we have gotten word that a curfew is now is effect for all major cities and violators will be arrested. Security within the Capital and other major cities remain at their highest state. This has been an NMN report. Posted Image |

CEN News Update "As the so called 'Schism War' in South Africa continues to escalate, Cardinal Alonsa, Cardinal of Foreign Affairs made this statement today on behalf of His Holiness, Pope Emmanuel II: *screen cuts to a grand room, paintings adorn the walls and gold sparkles. Standing behind a gold lectern is a middle-aged man, a stern look on his face, his short and sharp black hair parted to one side and a golden and diamond rosary hangs from his neck. He begins to speak* 'His Holiness, Pope Emmanuel II is becoming extremely concerned of the situation in South Africa. Innocent South African Catholics are being murdered and a Catholic kingdom is being subject to war from schismatics as well as the threat of occupation from a once true and obediant child of the Holy Mother Church - Neo-Macedonia. Neo-Macedonia is an extremely worrying concern for the Holy Father as the Catholic citizens seem to be coming under increasing oppression, anti-Catholic oppression, from the government. It is most concerning that King Alexander, depsite issuing many proclamations, has not been seen in public for a very long time. It is also worrying that the King is beginning to blatantly ignore the Holy Fathers most wise commands and proclamations. His bulls are not to be ignored but are to be followed, even by a King or an Emperor. Catholic Europe will not tolerate continuing violation of His Holiness' decree's as is shown currently by Neo-Macedonia. Action may soon be taken by the Holy Father should the situation not be rectified.'" More updates to follow. OOC: Basically, should the General continue to ignore the Pope and should King Alexander not show himself in public, as he actually can't do, the Pope is going to denounce King Alexander and release Neo-Macedonian citizens from his and his governments rule. |

OOC: Completely understandable and it's safe to assume that the General greatly under estimates the power of both the holy church and the catholics of his nations. Civil War is coming and I'll post the clear factions in it, there will be only two: A clearly obendient Catholic Faction and a sepratilist faction. Not sure of their names and I hope to have a report on this later. |
