To: all Germanic nations from across the world

As of now, we have two different alliances that are based off of culture and ethnicity of nations; the Treaty of Celtic Friendship, and the Slavic Summit of Friendship And Cooperation. However, I have noticed a lack of any alliance or union for Germanic Nations.

New Derusmia, being a Germanic nation, both by demographic and culture, would like to invite all willing Germanic nations to our capital, Metria, to talk over a possible alliance of cooperation and unity. It is in my best interest that our nations will be united in comradeship and prosperity.

Sincerely,

To: The Nishida Aeronautics Ltd. Administration

The Unified Aerospace Forces of New Derusmia is looking for an aerospace company to modernise the ageing Tchaikov AirSup-2 Air Superiority Fighter Aircraft. Nishida Aeronautics was our first choice.

We’d like to offer 24.5 million Kein to upgrade the engines, radar, and software of 1 aircraft. We will be sending 50 aircraft this month, and 55 more later this year or early next year.

If there are any concerns, please write back to me as soon as possible.

Best regards,

The broadcast begins with the playing of the 2019 Mundus Games fanfare.During the fanfare, scenes from all across the nation are shown on-screen. First, the snowy mountains of Lilleston, followed by the rolling hills and fields of New Tarogga, the sunny beaches and coastline of Ardem and Veena, and finally, the three central cities. The historical sights of New Kaunderstein, the futuristic skyscrapers of Erejen, and finally, the sprawling capital, Metria City, the host city of the 2019 Mundus Games. After the final note plays, the screen fades to the DWBS Newsroom, where nationally famous news presenter, Mikhail Ferris, is sitting.

“Welcome to the DWBS Broadcast of the 2019 Mundus Games Opening Ceremony, live from Metria City. Very soon, we’ll be crossing over to Derusmia Stadium, where our live correspondents are waiting. This will be the very first time New Derusmia will be hosting an international sporting event, and hopefully not the last. This year’s Mundus Games is set to be one of the biggest events in New Derusmia’s history.”

There was a slight pause, then Mikhail continued.

“We are now ready to cross over to Derusmia Stadium. Farewell, and enjoy the Opening Ceremony.”

The scene cuts to the packed stadium, where standing in the centre of the stadium is an orchestra, ready to play. The announcer’s voice echoes throughout the stadium.

“Ladies and Gentlemen, please give a warm welcome to the National Orchestra, playing their rendition of the the New Derusmian National Anthem, followed by the playing of the the Mundus Games Anthem. We ask that you please stand whilst the anthem and hymn is playing and the flags are being raised.”

During the national anthem, a large flag is slowly marched into the stadium by countless decorated military personnel, some elderly and some still young. The flag is put on a high pole and raised slowly. As the final note plays, the flag is finally at the top, and cheering erupts the stadium. The same happens for the Mundus Games anthem, except the Mundus Games flag is carried in by historical famous athletes from the region. At the final note, the flag is raised, cheering erupts once more and the orchestra take their final bows and exit the stadium.

“And now, a special performance; the history of New Derusmia, presented by the Capital Arts Academy!”

The lights are dimmed and peaceful tribal music is echoed throughout the stadium. The sound of the stomping of hooves of horses is heard, getting closer with every second. All of a sudden, the lights begin shining in the colours of bright and dark blue, and a dozen white horses come moving gracefully into the center of the stadium and begin moving into a beautifully choreographed circular pattern. The men and women riding wear white and blue garb that flow freely, as if trailing the riders, resembling the garb of the ancient Novæna. The peaceful music all of a sudden escalates into a furious war chant, and the lights change to a bright yellow and burning crimson as a dozen more black horses race furiously into the stadium, almost frightening a few people. The men on the black horses are dressed in a recreation of ancient war armour worn by the Rüs. The black horses begin to race around frantically, in contrast to the gracefully circling white horses.

“This is the first segment of the performance, tribal history. The Novæna is represented by the white horses, and the Rüs are represented by the black.

Immediately after saying this, the sounds of battle erupt in the stadium, the strobe lights turned on,  and smoke machines activated, creating a sense of panic, distress, and chaos. At this moment, the circular pattern was broken, and the white and black horses began running around frantically in unpredictable directions.

“What you are witnessing is the great battle between the Novæna and Rüs. Casualties run high as the Novæna attempt to defend their faith and lands as the Rüs barbarically attack.”

Eventually, the lights die down for a while, the stomping of horses ceases,  and the rustling of stage crew below can be heard. When the lights come back on and the smoke rises, there is a new scene in the center of the arena. A single spot light shines upon a large, beautifully decorated platform with a throne on top is in the center of the stadium, surrounded by a singular armoured soldier on board a brown horse. On the throne is an elderly, white haired man, dressed in colourful royal garb.

“Following the great battle between the Rüs and Novæna, we now enter an age of great prosperity and peace. Welcome to the Derusmian Empire, where our second segment begins; medieval history.”

The historical national anthem of the Derusmian Empire begins to play, and as the song progresses, more brown horses start to enter from all sides of the arena, each with a soldier wearing a unique set of armour.”

“As you can see, as the song goes on, more knights and horses begin to join the circle around the throne. This is to represent the rapid growth of the empire, and the original fourteen regions of the empire.

At the climax of the song, a hundred or so soldiers in armour enter the stadium from all sides, marching and chanting in sync to the music, using their swords and shields as part of the performance. Just as the last note is played, the men arrange themselves into the shape of the iconic four pointed star, and give their last “Hoorah!”.

The strobe lights begin flashing and the smoke machines begin to start up again. The music begins to change from a medieval tune to a modern military march. Once again, when the lights stop strobing and the smoke rises, the suits of armour are gone, replaced with 1960s military gear. The 14 horses have been replaced with armoured vehicles. Instead of swords, the soldiers have guns, and the throne room now resembles a majestic white office, one used by Presidents during the 60s. The white bearded man is no longer wearing royal garb, but an expensive suit. His facial hair has changed, and the bushy white beard has been replaced with a neat, clean stubble.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, modern history.”

The men continue to march around in perfect synchronisation in the pattern of the four pointed star in a sort of trance, but after a minute into the performance, something isn’t quite right. Some soldiers begin to march quicker than others, some slower. Some begin to move out of line, and some are completely staying still. The man on the platform stands up and begins to shout commands at the below, but they do not respond. Like a disease spreading, more and more soldiers begin to fall out of line, and eventually, only a few soldiers are left marching properly.

“This specific section of history here is during the Leoch Dictatorship. The archaic behaviour of the soldiers in this scene represents the anarchy and the state of the nation at this point in history.”

After the announcer said this, there was shouting from amongst the soldiers below, surprising most of the audience. The music was changing from a military march to heavily tense music. The lights began to change to a furious red colour, intensifying the tension, as if a large fight was about to break out.

The shouting began to get louder as more and more people began to shout, however, this wasn’t any normal shouting. The soldier’s shouts were beginning to sound more in sync, more unified, as if a war chant. As if the shouting could get louder, gunfire echoed throughout the stadium as a large scale gunfight broke out. The strobe lights raged on and the smoke machines were turned a final time as the music intensified and the running around and gunfire of countless soldiers rang out throughout the area.

“And now we reach the end of the History of New Derusmia performance. Thank you for watching, and enjoy the rest of the ceremony.”

Cheering and clapping came over the audience as the fanfare began for the March of Athletes.

Led by none other than Achkarein, the proud athletes and their nation’s flags made their way around the track twice before taking their places in a circular pattern around the field. Once the final athlete takes their place, a new fanfare began to play as the torch relay was about to enter the arena. After a few seconds after the music had started, a sleek, modern, steel torch with blue highlights entered the stadium, lit brightly and carried in by Daniel Hussey, team captain of the New Derusmian National Rugby Team. He ascends onto the platform center of the stadium, where he simply puts the flame to the floor. Nothing happens for a while as, and the audience watches in shock as the torch lights a ring of fire that surrounds Hussey, who pays absolutely no attention to it. As the music climaxes, the portion of the platform on fire begins to rise into the sky slowly until it is five meters into the sky. Once the ring is brought to a halt, the music finally ends and fireworks are sent flying into the night sky, exploding into the colours of the Mundus Games flag. The applause of the audience is immense, and the announcer can barely be heard.

“Ladies and Gentlemen, may I introduce to you, the President of New Derusmia, President Ebston Feish!”

Ebston came out the VIP box, grabbed a microphone, and made his way to the platform, underneath the ring of fire. He raised the microphone to his mouth, and began his speech.

“Welcome, everyone, to arguably humanity’s greatest congregation, where all the nations of the world come to unite in friendship and sportsmanship. I believe that games like these are necessary in a world where violence and threats between nations and country are so prevalent, and where most of humanity live in fear of war. The Mundus games, however, give each of us a chance to forget all of that for a while, no matter what nation you come from.”

Ebston pauses for a bit, and continued.

“Anyways, with that being said, it is an utmost honour to declare, as President of the people of New Derusmia, the 2019 Mundus Games open! Good luck to all!”

Cheering erupts all over the nation, from Derusmia Stadium to households and families all across New Derusmia.

After a panning shot of the stadium, the screen goes back to the DWBS Newsroom, where Mikhail is sitting.

“This concludes our broadcast of the opening ceremony of the Mundus Games 2019 Opening Ceremony. To continue viewing the opening ceremony and following events, please switch to DWBS Sports, on channel 68. Thank you for watching DWBS.”

Please pay no attention to this topic. I just wanted to have my 100th post put here. Alright. Nice.

National Emblem National Peacetime Flag National Wartime Flag (Controversial) ”AD MELIORA." The Reunified Socialist Federation of New Derusmia/Wiedervereinte Sozialistische Föderation von Neu Druzmya (RSFND/WSFND) or for short, New Derusmia or Derusmia (rarely), is a Federal Constitutional Socialist Republic located in Southeast Ardia. It was founded in the year 1985, 14 years after the collapse of the Unified States of Derusmia. As a highly developed country with a very high standard of living, it upholds a social security and universal health care system, environmental protection, tuition-free education, and free public transport. The main industries of New Derusmia are tourism, agriculture products, and Information and Software Technologies. New Derusmia has a population of 111 million. HISTORY NOTE: This section is under review, so expect many changes. In the beginning, there was a nomadic tribe known only as the Rüs, which had settled in Concordia. The Rüs conquered every tribe in the surrounding area, and was seemingly locked in a state of war with the neighbouring Svåldi, in Nordheit, and the Yōokari (Yukari), in the Süden Territories. All tribes claimed large amounts of territory. Eventually, the wars ended with the Rüs absorption of the Svåldi and Yōokari. Hundreds of kingdoms that had descended form the Rüs had begun appearing all across the area and began warring for as much territory as possible. This period of time lasted for almost a thousand years, until a deadly plague spread across the region, eradicating much of the warring kingdoms. After the plague had passed, the kingdoms put aside their differences and unified in 1706, under the leadership of Andrew II the Unifier. The new Unified Derusmian Empire was a peaceful, prosperous, civilised and powerful empire, home to major industries, ports, trading centers, and markets, however, as time went on, the monarchs became more hostile and aggressive, and so did the empire. Expansion and strength were prioritised, much at the citizen’s loss. In the year of 1899, Markus IV the Tyrant rose to power, executing anyone who dare speak against the throne. The same year, the citizens launched a large-scale revolution against the monarchy, and after two brutal years of war, a democratic government had been put in its place. In the Great War, the Republic of Derusmia was on the hostile side, and had a major part in the conflict. There had also been an attempts to harness nuclear power to provide energy for the growing nation and to build powerful bombs. However, the events of the Valter City incident in 1960 had resulted in the closure of any Nuclear Programs operating at the time, and the closure of any Nuclear Programs for the future. Two years after Valter City incident, Daniel Leoch was elected as Prime Minister. However, just as he was elected, government corruption began to rise, as major corporations grew while the middle and low classes began to starve. The years 1962 to 1966 are known to many as ‘the Dark Days’, due to the extreme poverty and hopelessness of citizens during that time. The Dark Days are also the reason why the civil war began. The civil war, also known as the winter war or the second revolution had started in the winter of 1967 and had seen over 5 million dead and many more injured. It started with the rebelling of countless local governments against the corrupt government. A ‘Revolutionists Army’ soon was founded, and began capturing and holding military bases, and were often met with brute force. In mid 1971, the ‘Battle for the Capital’ began. The remaining soldiers and forces defended against the Revolutionists Army’s advance into the capital. In the end, the surviving soldiers turned on the government, and along with the Revolutionists Army, stormed the capital building, resulting in a victory for the Revolutionists Army. Afterward, the two revolution leaders had a debate whether the new nation should become capitalist or socialist. Eventually, an agreement was reached, and Derusmia was split into two. In the south was the Southern Socialist States of Derusmia, and in the North was the North Republic. The three nations entered a 14 year period of extreme isolation, as the three nations began to repair what had once been a powerful nation. There is not much information that can be found during this period, though stories from former citizens of these nations tell stories of heavily nationalist governments, and anti-foreign policies, though these stories should be taken with a grain of salt, as there is not much evidence to prove these claims. In 1985, all of that changed, as the 2 small nations came together to discuss over a new, unified nation. After much negotiation and discussion, the constitution of New Derusmia was formed. The SSSD and the NR merged into one to create New Derusmia. The aftermath of the ‘Battle for the Capital GEOGRAPHY AND CLIMATE The New Derusmian landscape is diverse, ranging from white sand beaches, snowcapped mountains, dense forestry, and wide plains. The highest peak is Mt. Tate, at approximately 3670m, and the lowest point is the town of Whindes, at -8m. The longest river is the Ardem River, which also provides the water supply for the Capital Region and parts of the Süden Teritorries. Ever since the beginning of New Derusmia, the government has been working to create a world class environment. By mid 2018, the government reached it's goal of being one of the top 5 most environmentally friendly nations in the world. Today, New Derusmia boasts an extremely well maintained and beautiful environment. The climate in New Derusmia is mild, ranging from 4 degrees to 28 degrees, However, in the Southern Territories, the temperature can get as low as 0 degrees.** **All temperatures in Celcius 10 LARGEST CITIES IN NEW DERUSMIA Spoiler: show Bundeskapital Metria - Concordia Population: 14.2 million Erejen - Concordia Population: 10.5 million Regionalekapital Ardem - Langküst Population: 10.2 million Regionalekapital Veena - Wohlküst Population: 9.6 million Reigonalekapital Lilleston - Südtenlands Population: 8.5 million Erbekapital Neu Kaunderstein - Concordia Population: 7.9 million Regionalekapital Neu Tarogga - Nordheit Population: 7.5 million Regionalekapital Kagayan-de-Oro - Kagayan Population: 6.9 million Erbestadt Kresting - Wohlküst Population: 6.3million Regionalekapital Yunshan - Beitu Population: 5.9 million (NOTE: The ‘Hub’ Prefix is designated for regional and federal capital cities. The ‘Stadt’ suffix is the Derusmian word for ‘City’.) GOVERNMENT New Derusmia is a Federal Constitutional Socialist Republic and sovereign state made up of 5 self-governing regions named Cantons. The President functions as both head of state and head of government and appoints the Commander-In-Chief/Oberfehlsaber, who in turn, appoints the Commanders of the 3 branches of the Defence Forces. The president is elected by direct vote for a single five-year term, during which he or she appoints and presides over the cabinet. The powers of the President are also defined by the constitution. The Reunified Socialist Federation of New Derusmia was formed on 9 February 1985 when two Derusmian nations united to become the 5 cantons of New Derusmia. Under a federal system, powers are divided between a central government and individual cantons. An interesting feature of New Derusmian politics is the annual Socialism Referendum, as defined in the constitution of New Derusmia as ‘an annual vote of the people that decide if the nation stays as a socialist state, or reverts to capitalism’. The constitution also states that ‘parties can choose to change when the referendum is held or abolish it completely, thus keeping the nation capitalist or socialist for as long as the party is in power. Never in New Derusmia’s history has the nation been switched to Capitalism. The Palast der Republik located in the Government district of Metria City. There are three arms of the Derusmian Government: * Legislative: The unicameral Domestic General Assembly, makes federal law, declares war, approves treaties, has the power of the purse, and has the power of impeachment, by which it can remove sitting members of the government. * Executive: The President appoints the members of the Cabinet and other officers, who administer and enforce federal laws and policies. * Judiciary: The legal arm of the federal government. It is independent of the other two arms, and is responsible for enforcing the laws and deciding whether the other two arms are acting within their powers. The Domestic General Assembly is a unicameral assembly that uses the single transferable vote system. It consists of representatives that originate from the city or major town they represent. Representatives are elected by people who are valid citizens, have completed 12 years of education, and are currently residing in their canton. Representatives meet to discuss matters in the Palast der Republik in the Central Government District of Metria.
