Leader of the Chinese National Party Assassinated!
The leader of the Chinese National Party, the fringe, but very loud Fascist Party in China, has been assassinated, along with his top advisors! Tao Zeng hue was very outspoken, and unrelenting in his critism of the Communist Party in China. He had repeatedly received Death Threats, but repeatedly, and loudly, ignored them, seen shredding them in several speeches. The Chinese Authorites deny responsibility, but some suspect them. The Fascist Party has yet to find a new leader, and is starting to fall aparet, which was probably the plan. Regardless of who killed Tao Zeng, it is a blow to Democracy in China.
Chinese Farming Reforms see Economic Boom!
China is rapidly becoming one of the world's Largest Economics, as their increasing drive towards Democracy sees many more billions pour into China from Foreign Investors. China also finished spending several Billion on Farming Equipment, which supplied almost all of its farmers with new equipment, and training on how to farm the land more efficiently. China now has much more Grains and the like to sell, and is selling them en masse Internationally. This has caused a slight dip in the price of these commodities, like Rice and Grain, but the market soon balanced. China's Economy rose by 2 levels, or 15%. It is currently the best in the world for a single nation.
Political Violence mar North Vietnamese Election
In North Vietnam, the first every Democratic Elections were held, but they did not go as smoothly as people hoped. The Leader of the Fascist Party, and the Deputy Leader of the Center Party were assassinated. Also, unknown groups stole some ballot boxes, and allegations of ballot stuffing were thrown around by various parties. Despite the slight irregularities, the elections went ahead, and it is expected that the winner will be announced soon.
Bolivian Government gone in horrific explosion!
In Bolivia, a shocking series of events has taken place. We told a story some months ago on how we suspected that Bolivia had some rebels in Bolivia. Well, Bolivia, at that time, vehemently denied it, and went so far as to refuse to allow the WNN into the country. Well, what we now know is that the Government was fighting a fairly intensive battle against rebels, apparently not Fascist Rebels though, they are Monarchists, and want to see Bolivia returns to the days of a King. Well, these Monarchists managed to do the ultimate Political Assassination. In one go, they took out the entirety of the Bolivian Government. It was in session, the People's Congress, and all the top Communists were in the secluded Parliament, so to speak, of the Government. We are not sure how it happened, but the Monarchists managed to fill a Tractor-trailer with Ammonia and Diesel Fuel, an explosive mixture, and get it close enough to the Government Buildings, and then detonated it. It produced a huge explosion, Mushroom cloud and everything, and, in one blow, eliminated the Bolivian Government. Chaos reigned, as the Bolivian military, which was already small from being taken mostly into the JCF, started fighting each other for power. The Monarchists, or whomever they really are, then started a full-scale rebellion, and took about 1/3 of the country. The General of the Bolivian Military has control over another 1/3 of the country, and the JCF tried to fly in several thousand troops. They managed to land a couple thousand, but they were not allowed through Chilean airspace. Chile declared that it would be an act of war against Chile, and SADETO, if they did so, so the JCF was forced to go through Argentinian Airspace. This wasted time for them, so they only managed to secure a small region of the country. this situation remains explosive, literally, and thousands of Bolivians are fleeing the country for remaining SADETO nations. Mostly they are fleeing to Chile and Brazil.

Poland experiences pro-Communist insurgency!
Poland, which was a fairly stable democracy, has started to slip into, well, not anarchy, but civil unrest. It all started when the pro-Communist Opposition party blasted the Government decision to allow SADETO troops "joint training excersizes" with the Polish Army. This was a sort of controversial issue in Poland, about 40% were opposed to it, as SADETO are views as Fascists, but the Communists latched onto the idea, and started beating the drums. In a series of marches, speeches, and protests, they decired the Government as "not standing up for the rights of the proud Polish people", and that "Poland must never submit to the will of the SADETO invaders!". They then started to get militaristic, and encouraged a "Revolution for the proud and brave Polish Workers!" Now, the polish people actually shrugged off Communism, and have been fairly prosperous since. The polish Government has officially launched a complaint to the RF Governemnt, but the RF said that they were not behind it, and suggested that maybe the polish Government should listen to their people. The SADETO troops are being used, along with polish troops to keep the situation under control, and the Polish Government has countered by saying that the "SADETO troops are here for peaceful reasons only", but has not been very effective at countering the claims of the Communists. Currently, an armed upsirising is beginning to startin part of the country, but it appears that the majority are opposed to the Communists. We will keep you informed on how the situation devlops.
USA and allies complete Space Station!
The USA has announced that it, and their unamed partners, have completed a Space Station! This consists of 10 "pods" all connected together, and contains enough room for Scientific Experiments, and living quarters for scientists. This is the first of its kind in the world, and true, it is a bit crude around the edges, and small, but this means that the USA could launch a Space Craft from Earth, re-fill it at the Space Station, and then have it be able to travel far further and faster among the stars. Truly, this is a big accomplishment, and shows that the USA is far ahead of the CER, indeed, anybody else in Space.
War in Hungary ends with surprising result!
In hungary, the JCF withdrew their forces after they managed to capture the Hungarian Dictator, and all of his top officials. Meanwhile, the full force of the mysterious BA came into Hungary, all 350,000 of them, plus their impressive arsenal of weapons, all top of the line, and all the BA trops are very, very well trained. The big question is where which Army comes from, it is very large for a Mercenary group, and extremely well-trained. They managed to avoid war with Austria by infiltrating Austria with their Special Forces, and kidnapping several of Austria's Top military Leadership. They then demonstrated the power of the BA on the battlefield, doing some excersizes. Top Austrian Leaders decided that, rather then be totally annihilated by this force, and be forcifully turned into the Austro-Hungarian Empire under the control of the BA, they should get out of Hungary, and try again another day. So the war-ravaged nation of Hungary is now under the control of the mysterious BA, who is promising the organize elections, and rebuild the nation. They have started rebuilding the nation, and the Government, and the shell-shocked citizens of hungary have mostly stared in awe at these soldiers, dressed totaly in black, organizing their country. The BA is reporting that mass graves have been found, and about 10,000 Hungarians have been shot. Also, stories of random torture by the former Hungarian Dictator, and his Secret police, are being reported by BA troops Many wonder, though, about the long-term future of Hungary, and whether the BA will stay there for a long time, or use Hungary as base for other operations.
ELECTIONS!
This is the section of the WNN dedicated to reporting on all of the various elections that are taking place around the world. It appears that Democracy is finally breaking out across the world, and so we are here to inform you of who is in charge of which nation.
Social-Democrats win in UIS!
In the newly created UIS, the Social Democrats, lead by Mahmoud Abbas, from Jordan, has won the election. Abbas is a fairly mainstream politician, and apparently is a fairly level-headed politician. He was involved with the Palestinians before the events of 17/62 occurred, which virtually wiped out the PLO, and most Palestinians. Their agenda of armed neutrality, and maintained a strong defensive force was exactly what the Muslims in the UIS wanted to hear. They came out in droves to support Abbas, who is a very popular Politician. His chief rival, Arafat, received a lot of support in Asia and Africa, though not enough to defeat Abbas. Arafat was proposing that the Palestinian State, but many Muslims felt that that would mean more war between the UIS and Israel, and Israeli allies, and that the UIS had enough war. Here, for the record, are the official results:
- Social Democrats - 52%
- Republican Party - 35%
- Environmentalist Party - >1%
- Communist Party - 5%
- Conservative Party - 7%
- Fascist party - >>>>>1%
Reform Party wins landslide in Acadia!
Tragdor and his Reform Party have won a resounding mandate from the people in Acadia. Acadia, traditionally a more right-wing nation, have goven Tragdor, a very, very popular leader who is accredited with leading Acadia out of the ashes of Canada, and the clutches of the expanding Americans, is deeply Acadian, and is in fact a direct ancestor of the original Acadians who fled when the British killed and deported many Acadians when Canada was just being settled. Some are claiming fraud, as copious amounts of "Tragdor's Love Juice" were distributed to many supports of Tragdor, but, as Tragdor says, "this is simply the best Wine in the world, it makes people healthier, and more eager to reproduce, which is a good thing". Here, for the record, is the results from this election, which had a lot of quite random parties running:
- Reform Party - 65%
- Progressive Conservative - 10%
- Keynesian Liberals - 4%
- Green Party - 7%
- Existentialist Party - 9%
- Christian Socialist - 4%
- FRU - 4%
- Other - 1 %
Upon news of the win of their great leader, the Acadian Economy rose sharply, and gained one third of its value in just 6 months!
"Iron Lady" sweeps Spanish Elections!
The so called "Iron lay" Margeret Thatcher, and her Conservative Party have done a major upset, and won a large mandate in the Spanish Elections. She campaigned for a Strong USE, and she pledged that "a fair Constitution thazt represents the beliefs and values of all Spanish will be written by my Party if we are elected." Mrs. Thatcher was one of the lucky survivors from the United Kingdom. Of course, this election was not to form the Governemnt, it is one stage in the multi-stage process in Spain towards Democracy. This new Parliament will be tasked to writing the Constitution. She beat out some Christian Parties, and the Fascists to win. Many were shocked at how poorly the Liberal Party fared, but some said that Mr. LePue was a very unpopular leader, and would have done a terrible job with the Constitution anyway. Here, for the record, are the results:
- CPS - 59%
- LOP - 8%
- CC - 20%
- TPL - 3%
- WPS - >>>1%
- NFP - 9-10%
Russian Election results in no clear winner
Following the series of scandals that led to the downfall of the People's Party, Russia held some more elections, after their Constitution was re-written to ensure that the scandal, which resulted in the Army being called in to end the standoff, never happens again. The results were mixed, reflecting the mood of the Russian people. Vladimir Putin won the Presidential Race, in the second round, against Boris Yeltsin, and his party fared well, but did not end up with the majority of seats in either the Upper or lower house, which means some Coalition Bullding will be needed. The Russians decidedly rejected the People's Party, giving them under 2% of the vote. A new party has emerged, probably because of the creation of the UIS, the Islamic Rights Party, or the IPP. They want either autonomy, or seperation for Russian's Southern, Muslim-dominated States, and they faired fairly well, which was quite amazing. Here, for the record, are the results:
- CPR - 12%
- NBP - 7%
- IPP - 12%
- PPR - >>2%
- RSDLP - 1%
- LDPR - 4%
- YRDP - 5%
- URF - 4%
- UR - 35%
- UF - 20%
