OOC: :rolleyes: Newspaper, not argument fun time

IC: I would just like to state that Bohemia never had the intention of invading Dalmatia, simply because we do not have the military power to do so, we had nothing to gain from such an attack, and we Bohemians would not dare dream of an invasion of the country which [u]gave[/u] us independence. Such an attack would be shameful, immoral, and dishonorable. Plus Germany was our Allie but we never allowed it or never would allow it to attack through Bohemia at our motherland. It was just a simple excuse to use Germany to invade Bohemia.

With the arrest of the former government, a new administration has been put in place. The majority of this new government is of Bohemian-Dalmatian descent. The focus of the new government includes improved diplomatic relations with Dalmatia, the exspansion of trade links with other countries, and the revival of Nordic culture in Bohemia.

[i]My fellow Bohemians, it is time for us to move on from a simple Protectorate of the Dalmatian Empire, to a new and rising Empire. We have renewed ties with our Nordic brothers to the East, and they support us in many ways. Now is the time for us to create our own Empire, a Empire unified by strength and wisdom. We shall not repeat the mistakes of the past, but embrace the future and our divine destiny. We shall expand and we shall prevail in our goals. Long live our rising Empire![/i]

What the hell is an Asian doing in Bohemia when he's supposedly a fascist Dalmatian?!?!?!

A popular news paper in Lisbon which had gained some pictures from Grand Papua would comment.

Random people figured that maybe he's related to those odd Asian tribes from the far corners of Northern Europe.

OOC: I do not understand. Did you merge or change your name or..?

You are correct in saying that our beloved Emperor has ancestry linked to Asia. His mother had emigrated from the UFE to the Dalmatian Empire, many years ago.

[center][color="#FF0000"][size="5"]Declaration of Isolationism [/size][/color][/center]

Earlier today, Emperor Mannerheim, declared a policy of Isolation from the rest of the International Community. All Foreign trade relations have been cut expect with the Continental Empire of Dalmatia and Germany. Bohemian Authorities have banned all media from other countries such as video games, television, internet, newspapers, and goods by the orders of his Imperial Majesty. All Foreigners, except those of Dalmatia and Germany, have been expelled. All European influences which are not of Nordic ideals are banned. Finally all borders are closed to Foreigners.

His Imperial Majesty has anticipated the reaction of other nations and justifies his actions by stating that he only wishes to expand and preserve the culture, environment, and identity of Bohemia within Bohemia.

In his own words [i]"Given enough time, any person can conquer the physical. With enough strength, any person may become wise. But it takes a true warrior to master both. I must teach this philosophy, to my people."[/i]

Citizens of Bohemia who are curently away from Bohemia have been given the option to stay in their current state or return to Bohemia to join the cultural revolution. If not, they are still welcome to return.

[color="#FF0000"][size="5"][center]Government Restructure[/center][/size][/color]

[center][img]http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x324/PADDYD15/800px-Czech_Republic_districts3-1.png[/img][/center]

Over the past few months, Emperor Mannerheim, has finally finished restructuring the Imperial Government. With the advice of Government members, random Bohemian Citizens, and Imperial Advisers the Emperor has remoulded the Government into a Ancient form of rule. His Majesty has created various small Chiefdom's and larger territories owned by Warlords(Jarl's). Each Chief or Warlord has a certain amount of Independence. They govern over day-to-day affairs in their own territory such as gathering taxes, infrastructure development, and carrying out the law. The Chief or Warlord also has the responsibility of drilling, training, and mobilizing military forces in their territory.

Every month for 7 days the Chiefs and Warlords gather to discuss national and international issues in the Althing or Alþingi. Such issues could be about Foreign Policy, Internal Administration, or feuds between Warlords and Chiefs. The Emperor presides over the Althing and has the last say in all issues. The Consul's of Internal Affairs, Finance, Foreign Affairs, and Military act independently of the Althing when the Althing is not in session. When the Althing is in session the Consul's carry out what is decided by the Althing and the Emperor.

The Emperor/Empress continues to be the Supreme Authority in the land. He or She has Supreme Authority over the Chiefs, Warlords, and Althing. The Emperor/Empress also receives Diplomats and grants Chiefs and Warlords their lands and title. The Emperor/Empress can also remove Chiefs and Warlords from their positions. The Emperor/Empress also has the responsibility of protecting Nordic Culture in Bohemia, and is the symbol of Bohemia's Nordic Culture.

[center][img]http://www.understoodbackwards.net/files/2011/01/protest-crap.jpg[/img][/center]

Workers protests, which have been raging for five days in various cities throughout Bohemia, have finally come to a halt and the country is getting back to work. The workers were protesting about "Employees Rights". Many have been working in harsh conditions or had no rights at all, which has caused Domestic Disturbance time and time again as they tried to demand what they want. Finally the workers have achieved what they set out to do. Consul of Finance, Annbjörg Frej, introduced new legislation to be followed out by Employers and Employees. The legislation is as follows:

[u][b]Employees Rights Act:[/b][/u]

[b]Employees Rights:[/b]
1. To be paid the agreed wage
2. To receive an employment contract
3. To join a trade union
4. To have safe and healthy working conditions

[u][b]Employees Responsibilities Act:[/b][/u]

[b]Employees Responsibilities:[/b]
1. To do a honest days work
2. To accept and carry out reasonable instructions from supervisors and management
3. To adhere to the terms and conditions in the contract of employment

Small retaliation came from the Management of the Business Sector. But as one fat looking business man said as he stumbled out of his luxurious car [i]"Give the peasants what they want."[/i]

[color="#FF0000"][size="5"][center]Over-Population Results in Widespread Famine[/center][/size][/color]

[center][img]http://www.lancewadplan.org/Cultural%20atlas/NL/Oldambt/Images/graanzee4.jpg[/img][/center]

Widespread famine has gripped the nation, from the highest to the lowest levels of Bohemian society. Reports of mass starvation and death from Liberec to Karlsbad have reached the common citizens of the nation. Authority's from all four region's have counted a combined death total of 1.6 million and rising. The Government is struggling to supply food to the population. There is simply not enough food flowing into Bohemia to make a difference, and large groups of people continue to stop and raid supply trucks which hinders the proper distribution of food to the people. However the police and military are working together to tackle this problem. The Emperor has distributed his own food supplies to the people, as has all the aristocracy, to help improve the situation, but however the situation continues to deteriorate.

The cause of this famine is over-population. Over the recent years the nation continuously expanded, especially with the arrival of German citizens fleeing Germany's own population crisis. The growth of the economy also led to continued population growth as more and more people had money to spend to sustain larger families. Bohemia also grew it's own food, therefor sustaining itself without importing food from foreign nations. But as the population expanded, less and less land was available for farming placing a strain on food production.

The Emperor is asking for relief aid from other nations as soon as possible to stop the death of millions of people.

[center][color="#FF0000"][size="5"]Famine Ends[/size][/color][/center]

As quickly as the Famine came, it has now ended. Government Official's claim the reason for the speedy end to the Famine was due to the fact that the population of Bohemia dropped from 7 million to 5.4 million. More food became availible with less mouths to feed, resulting in larger stocks of food, which was distributed to the remaining 5 million Bohemians.

The People and Government have learned a valuable lesson from this tagic event. The Government is currently expanding the food production sector of the economy. Grants have been given to farmers to expand their farms, and to invest in new crops which can help stabilize population growth in the future, and to continue producing food for the many citizens still in need of food.

The people of Bohemia are rebuilding their lives after this tragic event, as is the government repairing the country. Emperor Mannerheim declared, among the many refugee's being fed and housed in his Imperial Palace, that he is: [i]"Disappointed with the reaction to the famine from neighbouring nations. A truck load of food could have saved 100s of lives, but instead all we recieved was a truck load of apathy."[/i]

"Our heart goes out to those Bohemians who suffered during this famine, and we deeply regret being unable to assist in the midst of the crisis. Kurland would like to offer KM$50,000,000 in financial assistance to assist Bohemians in rebuilding their livelihoods and providing an ample food supply.
Additionally, Cannabis Corp, one of Kurland's largest and widest-ranging hemp producers, has offered to set up an aid operation in Bohemia, distributing free hemp food products to those in need, and should you accept their offer, it will be supported by the Kurlandic government."

We appreciate the sympathy shown by our Kurlandic neighbors to the North. However, your financial assistance and offer to set up an aid operation is not needed. Our food supplies have stabilized and our population is recovering rapidly. We thank you for your most gracious offer.

We appreciate the mobilization of this machinery from Germany to help with food production. However, it is not needed at this present time. We thank you for your offered help.

Despite the fact that Bohemia has the situation under control, the Continental Empire of Dalmatia will begin to ship 700,000 tons of medical and food supplies to the area. After the initial shipment, 350,000 tons will be shipped. We do hope that Bohemia puts these supplies to good use.

[color="#FF0000"][size="5"][center]Organization for the Protection of the Nordic Regime
(OPNR) [/center][/size][/color]

[center][img]http://blogs.abc.net.au/photos/the_real_great_escape/07-gestapo-officer-shoots-prisoner.jpg[/img][/center]

The Emperor has created a new police force to defend and protect the Nordic Regime and the Imperial Crown.

They are also responsible for state security.

The Organization for the Protection of the Nordic Regime(OPNR) hunts down and if necessary "removes" opponents to the regime. Anyone suspected of conspiracy, terrorism, anti-Nordic actions, and/or conspiring with foreign nations will be arrested and brought to trial. Those suspected will be given a "proper" trial, and a fair opportunity to prove their innocence.

The Emperor and his government will not tolerate unlawful and treasonous actions.
