[b]Valkurheim[/b]

The massive operation to remove the legendary "Nordic" gold continued in Valkurheim, with half of the reserves being removed. By this time, Stahl had departed the region, leaving the operation under the supervision of the Reich Minister of Finance Bregius Golthan and various officials from the Reich Treasury Office. Dozens of photographers, from the Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda, took photos and recorded video of the golden treasure. These images were broadcast throughout Greater Germany and advertised as the final victory against the "Devilish" Marten's Family, a gang of bandits and hooligans.

As the removal operation continued, another operation was taking place. The Order Police was organizing a burning session in the middle of the city. Hundreds of photographs, artifacts, and other items deemed significant to the Martencist cause were burned.

"Well, there appears to be a "Northern Ireland" now." Reich Minister of European Affairs Ardus Kaine said as he read over his daily report.

Stahl responded with a surprised look on his face, "Did the Irish government notify us of this move?"

Kaine smirked, "No Reichskanzler, no notifications from the Irish government. I would have expected some sort of notification, seeing as we have a major base in the area. They didn't seek our advice at all."

Stahl sipped from his glass of water, "Disrespectful peons. We should have let their President go up in smoke when we had the chance."

Kaine sighed and turned to the next page in his report, "Well, Reichskanzler, the best is yet to come. SIGINT reports from Reich Intelligence have indicicated that England has been in direct communications with France. I'd like to remind you, that France has been a very aggressive state towards Germany."

"...but France isn't a real state. I thought Athens controlled their foreign policies?" Stahl asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Kaine answered, "I thought so too. We should notify Athens of this development, although I'm sure they are aware."

"Very well. I want a copy of the Irish treaty on my desk by sunrise. In addition, I want Reich Intelligence to conduct a similar scan of SIGINT on Ireland. I will advise Generalfeldmarschall Xecr Nist to begin preliminary planning for possible actions in England and Ireland." Stahl said, yawning slightly.

"Regime change?" Kaine asked while gathering the rest of his documents

Stahl answered, "I'm looking over all options. However, with England becoming friendly with France, and Ireland giving up land containing a very important Germanic base. All options are on the table. I won't allow us to be caught off guard. Now leave me, I need sometime to meditate on this situation."

[b]To: Jorhan Stahl
From: Prime Minister George Best [/b]

Esteemed Sir,

A short while ago, note and a small gift of Irish Whiskey was directed towards the commander of your rather formidable base upon our shores. The note indicates the acceptance on the part of my government of the agreement held between the Kingdom of Ireland and your government regarding said base. With all the celebrating and fireworks we wanted to ensure your local commander had immediate word of the situation and a point of contact to interact with should he have had any concerns.

Moving along, I wish to directly communicate with your office to officially announce the previous agreement is still in full effect. While there are question as to how the Kingdom of Ireland and your government interacted on local issues, the agreement itself is one the Duchy of Northern Ireland finds to be one the entire nation can support in the interest of our national security.

Further, until some sort of formal arrangement is signed, let it be known that the Duchy of Ireland fully intends stand with the Kingdom of Ireland in support of their treaty obligations with your nation. Greater Germany has been a source of stability for Europe and as such is the case it is the Duchy of Northern Ireland's intention to throw it's modest strength behind the efforts of the Kingdom of Ireland to satisfy the Mutual Defense Pact. Should the Kingdom of Ireland be unable to field the forces abroad to satisfy those obligations, the Duchy of Northern Ireland will stand with it's brothers in the Kingdom of Ireland. That is the measure of our respect for your nation, which has provided a great deal for Ireland.

With this bit of business attended to the Duchy of Northern Ireland wishes to purchase a sizable consignment of military equipment from Greater Germany for the purposes of equipping our forces and reequipping the Kingdom of Ireland's forces. This will be an extensive project and one that will afford extensive commercial opportunities to Greater Germany. The equipment is expected to range from ships to machine guns in rather large numbers as we wish to fully revamp the local defense forces with a uniform and up to date selection of high quality equipment. It's been our experience that if you want high quality equipment of any sort, you should buy German equipment.

With the highest regards;
Prime Minister George Best
Head of the Interim Government of the Duchy of Northern Ireland

With the compenstion gained from Ireland, and a somewhat strange but friendly relationship with Scotland and an amicable, but not official friendship with France, the stateless state. With Ireland now partitioned again, it was time to speak to the Germans. Whilst France would be considered "the old enemy", Germany had to be considered the friendly enemy. The last time England was Independant and prospering was during the time of the Zurich accords, Germany was Englands closest ally. They had been deliberately left last on Englands initial diplomatic tours to give them time to withdraw their forces in Britain not to mention that the most recent conflicts to strike at Britain were against German themed Governments, which had ushered a "don't mention the war" senario for the Foreign Office.

From: Dominic Plantagnet, King of England

Reichskanzler, I wish to extend to you, or a member of your diplomatic staff, an invitation to come to Windsor Castle to discuss the past and present diplomatic situation between England and Germany with the aims of reconciling past offences and return to a friendly and positive relationship between Germany and England.

Signed

Ever so sorry to bother you again, but there seems to be a situation with the Kingdom of Ireland. They've collapsed quite suddenly and much to our surprise. I've dispatched forces to maintain public order. However, it is important to note that at this time the Duchy of Northern Ireland has no desire to integrate the Kingdom of Ireland into our ranks. Should our southern neighbors desire they join the Duchy we shall revisit the question. Given the Greater German Reich's interests in the area we wait for your advisement on your intentions prior to proceeding.

-Prime Minister Best

OOC: really don't want all of Ireland, so if someone wants to reroll there I'm fine with it. If no one steps up I'm willing to take it over as well. Up to you really, lemme know what you want.

[b]Welthauptstadt Germania (Berlin)
The Reichstag[/b]

In a rare move, Reichskanzler Stahl ordered that a special session of the Reichstag be held in order to address a "serious" problem plaguing the Reich.

[i]Reichstag Deputies!

When I became Reichskanzler of this name, I promised to create a Volksgemeinschaft. I kept that promise, by abolishing the Martencist caste system and programs affordable for all citizens. In this Greater Germanic Reich, I know nothing of bourgeois or proletarian, only Germans. While the last remnants of Martencist Germany have been swept away, there will always be individuals who will thrive to tear apart our people's community. As Reichskanzler and leader of the Germanic people, I cannot allow that to happen. Therefore, I stand before you in an attempt to achieve the legislative regulation of a problem which, if it breaks down again will then have to be transferred by law to the Nordic Socialist Party for final solution.[/i]

After Stahl stepped down from the podium, Reichspräsident and President of the Reichstag Eva Schmidt began to read the articles from the "Law Against Community Aliens"

[quote][b]Article I.[/b]

Community Aliens (Gemeinschaftsfremde)

1.

“Community Aliens” are such persons who:

1, Show themselves, in their personality or in the conduct of their life, and especially in light of any unusual deficiency of mind or character, unable to comply by their own efforts with the minimum requirements of the national community.

2.(a) owning to work-shyness or slovenliness, lead a worthless, unthrifty or disorderly life and are thereby a burden or danger to the community:

Or

Display a habit of, or inclination towards beggary or vagrancy, idling at work, larceny, swindling or other less seriously offences, or engage in excessive drunkenness, or for any such reasons are in breach of their obligation to support themselves.

Or

(b) through persistent ill-temper or quarrelsomeness disturb the peace of the community;

3. show themselves, in their personality or the conduct of their life, mentally disposed towards the commission of serious offences (community-hostile criminals [gemeinschaftsfeindliche Verbrecher]) and criminals by inclination [Neigungsverbrecher]).

[b]Article II[/b]

Police Measures Against Community Aliens

2.

1. Community aliens should be subject towards police supervision.

2. If supervisory measures are insufficient, the police shall transfer the community aliens to the Gau (or Land) welfare authorities.

3. If, in the case of any community alien persons, a stricter degree of custody is required than is possible within the institutions of the Gau (or Land) welfare authorities, the police shall place them in a police camp.[/quote]

Schmidt: Do we support the Reichskanzler in approving this new law and preserving the Greater Germanic Reich establishing by Party Comrade Visari?

A collective "Hail!" was heard throughout the room as every deputy stood up in support of the bill.

Schmidt: As President of the Reichstag, I approve the bill submitted before the Reichstag by Reichskanzler Jorhan Stahl. The Law Against Community Alies is, hereby, declared to be law in Greater Germany.

"The Empire of Tianxia cannot, in good faith to its people or allies, maintain the current alliance between ourselves and the Greater German Empire. Due to recent changes in German politics and domestic affairs the Empire will be activating its cancellation clause for our current treaty. Both the Emperor, the Imperial Council, and myself have debated that this is the best and only course of action we can take at this time."

After four years of construction in the Atlantic, construction on the Bifröst Space Facility was finally completed. As the premier space launch facility, Bifröst will handle all manned space exploration missions and space research and development. Top scientist from all over the Reich will be dispatched to the oceanic facility. The facility will become fully operational within the next couple of days.

Instead of waiting for news of the Tianxia cancellation to reach the masses through other means, the Reich Ministry of Propaganda proudly spread the news throughout the Reich. The Reich Ministry of Propaganda praised the cancellation, citing Tianxia's reason as another move by the great mongol horde to control another nation's internal affairs. Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda Ragez D'Asta would later state, "The great Mongol Horde tries to dictate to the world it's barbaric and atheistic policies. This Germanic nation will not tremble in the face of the red tide, and we will continue to conduct ourselves like a sovereign nation. The fifteen thousand German dead, who defended this nation against the red tide, are happy to see Germany part from that cursed nation."

The Reich Ministry of Propaganda would also go on to depict Maria Theresia as a traitor against her people. The party organized protest against the Austrian, tearing down posters and destroying other articles related to the monarch. "Martens was a traitor to his people, but Maria Theresia is a traitor and a murdurer to her people. She is nothing more than a Judas, who chose a rice paddy and an oppressor to the Japanese people as a husband. She is the definition of a community alien" - Michael Visari

"We're very much interested to see that a Visari is drug out of cold storage as soon as you back the Germans into a corner. It is also heartening to see them drag out slurs and stereotypes, denigrating those who dare to aspire to multi-culturalism.

It is the brutal social darwinism, ethno-centrism, and fascist tendencies of the German State that will fade into the ash bin of history. Many times Germany has attempted to go on this go it alone strategy where it attempts to impose its will on the world, it has always failed miserably. It propaganda department needs to resort to race baiting to distract the public from the impending disasters that its leaders can't help but commit.

I suggest the German people learn from the mistakes of so many leaders, and instead of attacking a paragon of virtue, rising up against their demagogic oligarchy before following another Visari over the cliff."

Let us be reminded, that this is the same Yuan Jia that launched an unprovoked attack on Germanic forces in the Caucasus Mountains in order to expand his own Empire. This great leader of Mongol barbarians then launched attacks into the Carribean and North America in order to forward his own agenda. The death of millions lay before is feet, but this man, who wraps himself in a cloak of higher justice sees no wrong in his actions. This sociopathic leader and his prostitute of a wife achieve joy in controlling the internal affairs of others. As for the German nation, it needs charity neither from Mr. Jia nor from that Judas Maria Theresia . It wants only its rights! It will secure for itself this right to life even if thousands of Jias and Theresias conspire against it!.

Now do I understand how the Japanese feel under the jackboot of Mongol oppression, and how brilliant minds such as Akeiko continue to struggle against the red devil of the East. - Jorhan Stahl

[b]Warsau-Martenheim[/b]

In Warsau-Martenheim, the Gauleiter of Poland and a large group of Nordic Socialist Party Officials (mostly of Polish descent) had assembled in the main town square. Throughout the day, thousands of citizens flooded into the square, in order to listen to a speech from Jorhan Stahl. At 7pm, the stage was set and Stahl stepped onto the stage.

Comrades! Volksgenossen!

As we enter this thirteenth year of this Greater Germanic Reich, we can rest easy knowing that all is fine. Our nation, especially the Polish Gaus continue to grow, and we continue to reach new heights in our journey. However, that is not what I'm here to discuss this evening. I'm here to discuss the future of the Polish nation in the Greater Germanic Reich. From examples in the past, I know there is some hestitation as we move into the future. However, I am here to say, that all fears and nonsensical thinking must be put to rest.

This Greater Germanic Reich is a collective breed of nations, and a collective breed of wills. While the old Martencist governments sought to subjugate you and make you second class citizens, that will not be the case in this Reich. In this Reich, all people are equal, as we work towards the common goal of a true Volksgemeinschaft.

Of course, to the collective few, my words might be empty. Therefore, as Reichskanzler and Autarch of the Nordic Socialist Greater Germanic Reich, I offer my most sincere apology to the Polish people for past abuses at the hands of past German leaders. As a sign of goodwill, the five billion reichsmark of stolen riches from the Martencist vault will be distributed to all citizens of Polish descent in the Polish Gaus.

Consider this to be formal reperations for past mistreatment and abuses.

For a united Greater Germanic Reich and for a Europe where all races and creeds can live in perfect harmony.

[u][b]Researching the Future[/b][/u]

At the various research and development institutes, research on Fusion Power was going at a moderate pace. However, the nation was steadily growing, and with that, there were more demands on the nation's current power infrastructure. In addition, the topic of nuclear waste was becoming a major point of discussion among government officials and citizens in the nation. Therefore, funding for Fusion Power was increased by over fifty percent. The Reich Ministry for Science, Education, and Public Instruction would supervise the research, in hopes of reaching a breakthrough sooner.

[b]Welthauptstadt Germania[/b]
the Reich Chancellery
Special Meeting Between Party Officials


"Party Comrades, this Greater Germanic Reich has existed for two decades. During those two decades of existence, I have had the chance to lead this Reich for eight years. In those eight years, we suffered unification, a revolution, and a terrorist attack that killed millions of our people. Yet, we still stand here triumphant and resolute. Our Greater Germanic Reich stretches across Europe and stands as the shield and protector of millions. We have destroyed the Martencist and wiped out one of the most corrupt families in European World History. Our scientist continue to reach one technological breakthrough after another, and our military stands as one of the strongest in Europe and the world. However, there is more that can be achieved. "

Stahl stopped talking for a moment, then restarted.

"Party Comrades, I am confident in my abilities as Autarch of the Party and Reichskanzler of Greater Germany; however, it is time for me to step down as Autatch of the Party and Reichskanzler of Greater Germany. The future of this nation belong to our nation's youth. They must decide this Reich's future. Reichspräsident Eva Schmidt has shown that she has the knowledge to lead this nation and party into the future. Party Comrades, I ask that you place your full confidence in Eva Schmidt to lead this nation into the future. When the time to vote arrives, I trust you will all do the right thing."

Plenary Session of the Nordic Socialist Party Congress

"Nordic Socialist!

Today, we move towards the future by electing a new leader of the Party. Reichspräsident Eva Schmidt, through her many years of faithful party service, has shown that she is prepared to lead our Party towards the future. Let us put our faith behind our dear comrade Eva Schmidt, as we elect her as the next leader of the Party."

After Chief of the Party Chancellery Ardus Kaine delivered his short speech, the official voting began to take place.

The voting phase lasting for about twenty minutes, before Ardus Kaine stepped back onto the stage.

"The voices of the Nordic Socialist Party have spoken, and Eva Schmidt has unanimously been entrusted to lead our great party into the future!"

Eva stood up as Reichskanzler Stahl placed upon her the Golden Eagle of the Party, to signify her position as Autarch of the Party.

The rise of Eva Schmidt to the post of Reichskanzler of the Greater Germanic Nation brought some mild changes. In her first move as Reichskanzler, she ended two decades of constant military production. In a meeting with various officials, Reichskanzler Eva Schmidt stated,[i] "The Reich has been in a constant state of military production since it's formation. While such a move was necessary during those times, the Reich is now in a state of peace, with very few enemies in the world. Not to mention, I am very confident that we have enough armaments and spare parts in storage to hundreds of wars if the need arises. "[/i]Most factories were converted to civilian production, with the extra funds diverted to civilian projects. The Reich's military purposed facilities were scheduled for minor spare parts production.

Internally, the same policies would continue to dominate the nation, although there were a few slight changes. Eva Schmidt suspended the Blood Guilt Laws, that were passed into law by Michael Visari. She ordered Central Commander of the Commission for the Preservation of the New Order and Chief of German Police Richard Sollaine to re-evaluate The Law Against Community Aliens. In a secret memo to the Police Chief, Eva Schmidt admitted that the Nordic Socialist Party risked going down the same path as the Martencist, if it continued to target it's own people. "When you become the enemy of your own people, then you have lost the right to lead", she stated in the memo.

The Reichskanzler also increased funding to Fusion Energy. With scientist promising a breakthrough in two years time, Schmidt increased funding by over fifty percent, with additional funding being sent to Space Research and Development.

Despite of the ongoing conflict, life in Germany continued as normal. Eva Schmidt had risen to the position of Reichskanzler; however, that wasn't the end of the power transition. The Reich's Cabinet remained the same, with Eva Schmidt deciding to keep most of the current officials onboard. The most notable change was the appointment of Chief of the Party Chancellery and Chief Ideologue of the Nordic Socialist Party Ardus Kaine, to the position of [color=#000000]Reichspräsident. His position to the position came as no surprise, as he is considered one of the most senior officials in the Party.[/color]

[color=#000000]The most sweeping changes came at the Gau or Provincial level. During past Germanic administrations, it was normal for German Gauleiters to rule over regions of non-German origin. However, that was about to change. Throughout the nation, as old Gauleiters retired or stepped down, Eva Schmidt appointed Gauleiters that were native to their region. A change that was welcomed by some areas of the Reich.[/color]

"Britain has sustained over five million casualties from the Irish nuclear strikes.", Ardus Kaine said as he glanced over a recent report.

Eva smiled, "I find it humorous. Everytime we leave a region, that certain nation goes on to commit idiotic acts. Taxiana "liberates" Georgia, then Georgia goes on an idiotic campaign into the Americas. We give Ireland freedom, and this happens. It's rather amazing, but that is besides the point."

Eva skimmed through a couple documents, writing her signature on some, "I am going to wipe the slate clean, in Ireland.

Kaine shrugged, "The last time we did that was in Caucasus Mountains, and that didn't go too well. It earned us the hate of half the civilized world.."

"Yes, Kaine, the operations in the Caucasus were unjustified in nature, but this will be justified. The current state of Ireland is responsible for the deaths of millions of lives and the destruction of infrastructure, which will take years to rebuild. The state is corrupt. Corrupted by it's current leadership. I will wipe the slate clean and create a new Irish nation. I have signed the death warrants for the current Irish leadership, and I have instructed re-education programs to commence in Ireland." Eva shrugged.

Despite the recent happenings, life continued normally, as evident with the recent breakthrough in Fusion Technology. After years of research, the Reich Ministry for Science, Education, and Public Instruction announced, in a widely publicized address to the public, that the nation had begun construction on it's first Nuclear Fusion Reactor.

[b]Ireland[/b]

With the collapse of the Irish resistance, the German government began reconstruction efforts in Ireland. The first step was the removal of dead bodies and other hazards, which could cause the spread of infectious diseases. Supervised by German troops, former members of the Northern Ireland government and military handled this grizzly task as part of their punishment. Heavy machinery, from the Reich Labor Service and other construction companies, was tasked with the removal of debris and various other heavy obstacles.

Despite the German policy of allowing nations to operate independently without German interference, Reichskanzler Eva Schmidt signed a decree ordering the complete annexation of Ireland into the Greater Germanic Reich.

"An independent Ireland does nothing but cause problems for Europe." Eva Schmidt said in a memo to members of the Reich Cabinet. "Therefore, I have decided to annex the region, directly into this Reich. All revolutionary ideals must be wiped from that region, either through subtle or non subtle means."

Despite the war in Africa, reconstruction efforts in Ireland were continuing at a moderate pace. It was estimated that over eighty percent of the rubble had been removed. In some of the smaller areas, German construction crews worked ahead of schedule re-building houses and apartments. In order to ensure that Irish citizens received a new house or apartment, displaced citizens were given special vouchers, guaranteeing them an apartment or house when construction efforts were complete.

Reconstruction efforts in Ireland continued at a moderate pace, with progress being placed at 80%. As the reconstruction began to come to a close, citizens were given the oppurtunity to move into thousands of rebuilt homes and apartments across the Gau.

Ireland

 

After many months of rebuilding, Ireland was deemed a rebuilt state. Throughout the rejuvinated province, thousands of celebrationsgov were held in celebration of the completed monumental task. Government officials, from Berlin, took tours of the newly rebuilt cities and tourist locations, while promising that such a disastrous event would never happen to Ireland again as long as Greater Germany rules the region.

Throughout the Reich

 

Berlin

 

Under the Nordic Socialist Party, the German people continued to prosper as evident by a number of positive events in the nation. On the outskirts of Berlin, thousands of citizens assembled for a ceremony to mark the official opening of the nation's first Fusion Plant. The Fusion Reactor, marked by years of hard work from the best German scientific minds, would supply safe and clean energy to the capital and other areas of the Reich.

 

 Bifröst

 

After billions of Reichsmarks and thousands of work hours, construction on the artificial island was now complete.  Thousands of scientist and military officials specializing in cosmic research were deployed to the island begin their research. In a suprising move, Reichskanzler Eva Schmidt ordered the first manned mission to take place in three weeks. The Reich Minister of Space later had this to say to reporters from The People's Observer,  "We haven't traveled to space in over forty years. That hasn't been since the old Martencist Germany and not since the Greater Nordlandic Reich. We have fallen behind in the Space Race. Are we going to catch up? Yes, absolutely!"
