Today, riots armed with flaming flags stormed the House Of Law, Cordinia's newly founded legislature.
The cause?
Word leaked out from an unsavoury character that the government would raise taxes to 25%.
This, however, was a hoax. A statement released by the Finance Minister proclaimed that no plans existed
to raise the tax rate from 15%.
