Regeneration In Process
I've noticed. Am beginning to post the update.
Year 1924 - Update 23.
Global Events:
Brazil has been put under strict control, with Russian and Madagascar Temporary Occupation Zones (TOZ), it’s army being disbanded and Incans gaining numerous border areas (including Caracas). However, all is not quiet. In Northern part of Brazil, disillusioned Brazilian veterans have formed a communist resistance force. Waging a propaganda campaign, they soon received numerous volunteers that followed them, and attacked numerous Incan, and later Russia, occupation units. The region is on a verge of a revolution.
(-1 Russian division, -2 Incan divisions)
Territories of Brazil that are outside of the occupation zones are largely in anarchy as well.
Panama Canal brings in profit to Panama, Cuba and Incan Empire (+2 Economy to each of the three).
In Iberia, the new terror police has cracked down hard on the communist movement, and on other dissenters. They did it just in time, too – a communist coup d’etat was planned for this year.
Germany experiences a new economy boom (+1 Economy), perhaps due to many Burgundians moving into Germany Proper, providing a large labor force. Meanwhile, PRG forces move into Burgundy, to “restore order”. Riots are being put down. Brussels is under siege by French forces, and neither side is ready to attack the other.
Communism – no longer just on Earth.
(see below)
Finland seems to have acquired nuclear power, and first Finnish nuclear power station went online this year. The rumors spread at first that Finland will send troops to help Oceania, but since the parliament and the people fiercely defended the good relations with Russia (and didn’t really care about Oceania), nothing happened.
Around St. Petersburg, Russian forces hold a parade of victory in WWII, and maneuvers dedicated to the Battle of St. Petersburg (+1 Culture). Meanwhile, the citizens are being taught the measures in case of a nuclear attack (План Действий в Случае Ядерной Атаки, ПДвСЯА
.
Meanwhile, communism is gaining a foothold in Russia, as the communist party is quickly rising and the communist radio acquires a large audience. The president seems not to mind this too much, albeit his attempts of pro-worker reforms are being defeated by a conservative-fascist coalition. Nevertheless, it is estimated that soon enough, communists MIGHT gain the control of the Duma.
Egyptian Civil War is over. Egypt is officially annexed into Arabian Caliphate, as Fascist soldiers laid down arms after their leader was overthrown by a group of moderate officers.
(-Entire Fascist Military)
In Africa, referendums held in former Brazilian colonies (as per decision of the Boma Conference) give Brazilian West Africa to Liberia (Britain’s government stated that it would not withdraw, and it’s forces are still located the northern part of the colony – albeit the Liberian civilian government is set up already), Brazilian Cameroon (narrowly) to Congo, Zulus received the southern parts of Greater Angola, Madagascar received parts of the Brazilian Southeastern Africa. Republics of Malawi and Angola received independence. Russo-FES forces, ignoring numerous protests, continue to occupy Nueva Lusitania.
Madagascaran Toliera Bomber is finally unveiled.
An Arabian officer, Abu Muhadeen, is the first man, and second human, in the orbit. Once again, it does not catch as much attention as Edda Skadi.
Using it’s cheap labor sources, China started mass production of various products. Soon enough, Chinese production begun to dominate Madagascaran markets...
Oceanian air forces suffer a major defeat, as NZPA seems to have received large amounts of aid, building up a large air force (or maybe it’s Comintern air fleets?). Oceanians launched a counter-offensive against NZPA, first taking out the western rioters by simply massacring those who do not leave and resist arrest, and then retaking several cities and towns from NZPA elsewhere in Australia. It is believed that most NZPA cells there were smashed by the ruthless actions of the martial law government, now headed by vice president Aucksbourne. However, in the east, NZPA is on the offensive, having captured Sydney (with minor DC assistance – by the time the marines arrived, the fighting there was almost over) and occupied Australia east of Darling. Oceanians did not expect serious resistance there, and thus failed to retake the territory. DC does not act, but holds on despite the desperate attempts to push their forces into the sea, and Oceanians failed to crush their blockade – not too surprising, as Oceanian navy still isn’t fully recovered. This time it’s Oceania that suffers large casualties, allowing the DC forces to launch a counter-offensive. Russians secure large parts of New Guinea. Arabs have landed on the island of Java, encountering heavy resistance from the “police” units there, but with the help of local Muslims and having obtained air superiority, they manage to secure most of the island.
(-6 NZPA divisions, -9 NZPA air wings, -4 DC divisions, -3 DC task forces, -8 Arab divisions, -1 Arab air wing, -15 Oceanian divisions, -5 Oceanian task forces, -10 Oceanian air wings)
PRG’s party officials stated that they intend to grant independence to Singapore after the [Oceanian] war is over.
Random Events:
In Aztec Republic, the rise of national identity and patriotism led to the creation of ten more volunteer divisions (+10 Divisions).
In Korea, a scandal started over corruption - a corrupt military officer allowed a group of what is believed to be some nation’s secret forces to steal a nuclear warhead (-1 A-Bomb).
Spotlight:
Lunar Revolution.
"To Moon and beyond!"
- Josef von Dunkelheit. 1924.
The final phase of Aurora Project has been finished, as first three humans (two Germans - Karl Viltenberg and Maria Hoffenmeir, and one Russian - Vladimir Kitaitski) walked on the moon and raised the flags of Comintern, DU, PRG and Russia.
Immediately, it caused much commotion back on Earth. Albeit at first, everybody was filled with enthusiasm, soon enough some people started to notice that something is wrong. First of all, why did a Russian join a German expedition? And others, especially military specialists in DU nations, were concerned about the "Comintern conquest of the outer space". Many more people begun to become even more enthusiastic with communism, seeing that it revels more and more horizons to humanity - while the DU is yet to do anything half as impressive (some do point out to the rapidly-expanding TV industry, but most think that it is not as much).
It is also believed that this has propelled PRG into a new age of technology – albeit, skeptics say that India already achieved a more or less equal level of development.
One way or another, this is a major propaganda win for Communism. The development of space industry also boosted German science and economy. Some say, "communism will triumph in the end - and it will not be too bad".
NPC Diplomacy:
From: France
To: PRG
We need your help in retaking Brussels!
From: Zululand
To: FES and Russia
We protest you not holding any elections for the territory you occupy. We hope you will make good on your promise this turn.
From: Oceania
To: Russia, DC
What will be your peace terms?
From: Oceania
To: Finland
Where is your promised aid?!
From: NZPA
To: the current allies against Oceania
We at first sought an unified Oceania under the communist flag, but now it would seem that it is impractical. We would agree to remove our claims from Indonesia. We suggest that an unified Indonesian nation is created, and chooses it’s own government. In fact, we believe we should all discuss the future of the United States of Oceania and all of it’s territories.
OOC:
Everyone, I’m quite sure this is one of my worser updates. Bear with me.
I also have reasons to believe that something is SERIOUSLY wrong with the stats...
OOC: I'm not getting something here... my two posts joined into one. I suspect that it is one of those features I never noticed until now, right? Anyway, I hope this won't merge with the update as well...
