"Hello, I am Diana Alters of Galactic News Network, here to interview Imperatrix Connie Marshall" Diana says to the camera, then turns to Connie herself "You've snatched victory from the jaws of defeat from both the Cybermen and SADS. Tell me, how does that make you feel?"
Connie, sitting in a relaxed position in her chair drinking tea looks at Diana "Well, at first I thought we were going to be conquered. Just like our old predecessors were during the Barbanian War and the First Nazi War. But we eventually pulled through, with luck and our allies on our side helping to push back and eliminate the threat".
"I see, and there's been reports from the Inquisition that they've speculated that Abbottsford has backed SADS" Diana said as she puts her elbow on the arm chair.
"To be honest, I was taken back when resistance fighters and Inquisitors found uniforms and clothing that matched the ones that were used by Abbott's forces. It was only natural to raise our suspicions on Abbott for aiding our belligerent" Connie responded as she puts down her cup of tea.
"Abbott has responded to the statements about the findings of the Inquisitions have made. They've stated that, and I quote, 'These slanderous allegations are a kick in the crotch to the men who laid down their lives in what proved an ultimately misguided sacrifice to keep American shores safe from the Japanese menace' and 'Nova Terra's treachery will be dealt with in due course'. What is your view on this matter?"
Connie's left eyebrow squints a bit as she processes Abbott's rhetoric "What Abbott seems to forget was that
we sent in expeditionary forces in the Philippine conflict.
We helped them keep Australian shores safe from the Japanese menace. I'd say it's a kick in the pants that they would be willing to back SADS when we helped them in previous conflicts." She then pauses to take a sip of tea then continues on "Abbott's threats are mere political slander to discredit the great nation of Nova Terra. If anything, It's only prompted our military to increase recruitment of soldiers, airmen, marines, and sailors and bringing a boost to our defense contractors. In my own humble opinion, Abbott is nothing but a blowhard trying to distance themselves from their support on propping up SADS and ruffleing up our feathers. Though my opinions of Abbott are just an opinion and not official state policy."
"Yes, the GNN has a low opinion for the Abbott Broadcasting Corporation" Diana says as she takes a look at her notes.
"If you ask me, ABC is just Abbott's personal soap box" Connie responds "That's why I give big props to Galactic News Network."
"Moving on and away from Abbott, what are your plans for the new Pax Nova Terra?" Diana asks.
"First and foremost, is rebuilding the war torn areas in the areas effected by war. The first order of business would be subdividing our Earthian holds into distinct regions" Then, Connie pushes a button to start up a powerpoint presentation.
"Aside from our core Space territories, our regions will be divided up into four regions: "United North American States", "United Mexican and Caribbean States", United South American States", and "United Siberian States". Each with their own regional capital to facilitate the regime's administrative duties"
Diana glances at the map and points at the gold star with the name 'New Port City' "New Port City?"
Connie then responds "Yes, we were lucky that the Cybermen and the Corporate Alliane did not noticed the island when they were around. And lucky that the cloaking device hiding the island left the ruins there, unmolested until our return. As we speak, were conducting rebuilding efforts to bring New Port City and Republic Island back to it's former glory and bring the Citadel back online. Were even transferring our main capital to New Port City"
"That is quite fascinating" Diana said "Please, continue"
Connie continues "New Port City is part of our rebuilding efforts for the United North American States. Settlers from our crowded planets and cities have started to move into the untapped lands there to settle and rebuild the old American Cities. Major manufacturing plants and defensive plants have already sprung up across North America while plans are underway for a highway system to connect United North American States with it's Southern brother and airports are also being rebuilt in the war torn areas of our lands to bring back the age of jet travel. I'm happy to tell our brothers and sisters of Nova Terra that the Boeing plant in Washington and the Lockheed plants in California have just reopened their factory doors to produce aircraft for both our military and our civil aviation"
"There has been reports that the Inquisition has been hit hard by outside spies" Diana then continues to ask "What are the plans to keep Nova Terra safe from unscrupulous spies?"
Connie adjusts herself and cracks her knuckles, then places them on her lap "I can't go into full details about them. But I have on my desk, ready to be passed, and edict that would put a stop on unauthorized access to Nova Terran's internet infrastructure. It's an act that I've crafted 'Protecting Online Nationalism Act and Safeguarding Intellectual Property and Privacy Act'. The center piece of increasing our security is the Great Nationalist Firewall which will keep outside interlopers from hacking into our systems. I have personally appointed Major Motoko Kusanagi to be the head of the Department of Homeland Security and the responsibilities of protecting Nova Terran's internet infrastructure under that department."
"There has been a wind of change of the battlefield, how is the Armed Forces of Nova Terra preparing for the new battlefleld in the coming years?" Diana asks
Connie, then holds up a book entitled
The Art of War by Sun Tzu "I've personally made sure that this book is to be taught in our curriculum in our military academies. I even added this book to the Nationalist Party Militia's Professional Reading Program".
"Anything to add to the advantage for the Nationalist Army" Diana states.
"We've met and exceeded our goals already on Earth, right now were just focusing on our territorial needs. Were pretty much done with expanding aggressively." Connie said as she sits back to take a sip of tea.
Diana then turns to the audience "It's been quite educational, but unfortunately, we've got to take a commercial break". The screen goes black and a few seconds later, an advertisement video is shown.
The screen then fades back to the interview set with Connie flexing her biceps and Diana turning to the audience "and were back with the interview with Imperatrix Connie Marshall" Diana then turns to Connie "Given that SADS have managed to escape no thanks to the Highwaymen's help, what is the plan that you have in mind?"
Connie, then stops flexing her muscles and takes a drink of tea "Well, given that we've basically kicked them off the hemisphere and the population has no desire to send troops overseas. The state policy is a see and wait approach for now, since we've just signed a peace treaty with SADS to end the conflict. However, we do have our eye on the Highwaymen since they have aided SADS in their escape to fuel their rampid drug problem."
"There are still people in the former SADS lands that still like the old government, what is the regime planning to do?" Diana asks.
Connie, rubbing her bicep muscles then answers "I have one of our best generals, Casanndra Moore, overseeing the enforcement of Martial Law in that area. The heads of the Nationalist Party have been sent there to, reeducate the populous that still harbor feelings for SADS".
"This has been a most educational experience and I of the GNN wish the regime the best of luck for the future" Diana then turns to the camera "This interview is sponsored by the Nationalist Armed Forces Recruitment Center. Enlist now, and defend your country. It's your duty as a Nova Terran citizen!" The screen fades to black to transition to another ad
