Stocks of Southern Headquartered Companies Drop Amid Fears of Civil Conflict


The stocks of several southern-located or headquartered companies in Soleimani have dropped this morning as protests in the south gain intensity and investors worry about the effect they will have on companies located in the south. Analysts say this won’t be the end and that multiple stocks are expected to drop further. Stocks that are especially in jeopardy are DW, Carinder and Jahri Incorporated. The sell-off comes as rumors that a civil conflict is on the horizon begin to spread. However, Secretary of State Benyamin Nahal has assured the public that “this is far from a civil conflict” and that “Soleimani is currently the strongest it has been in history.”

Meanwhile, several southern lawmakers are demanding that Soleimani withdraw their military presence from the southern conflicts In Ubriekkland, saying that “We should let things happen naturally”, and that “we can’t simply do this to please Ubriekkland’s government” many of the lawmakers are arguing that the people of southern Ubriekkland should have the right to secede if they feel they must.

The Executive looked and scanned at the document, but tried to do so quickly due to the fact that the surrounding press was anticipating an answer. Something on the document caught his eye.
“Well, Mr. Martialis Jundt, I am interested in exploring all of these joint opportunities between our nations, however, I believe especially that Maritime patrol is a key factor to defending our countries from threats both internal and external. I also would obviously be very interested in collaborates border control as you have previously stated. I think there are many ways we can work with this. For example, I believe we could work together on official standards for our military, especially in the maritime patrol department.”

The Executive glanced once again at the paper, and thought for a second.
“Is it possible that somehow we could base our patrol aircraft and sea craft models off of the same design. Have brilliant minds from our two nations work together to create designs that we could share and modify ourselves to fit our demands. This would drastically lower the cost of designing new military craft as we would both be investing in the design. This would also allow the opportunity for our engineers and revolutionary thinkers to work together, hence further increasing our relationship between our great nations. As well as opening up maritime air-space between our two countries. That way military planes would be able cross into the other country’s airspace without raising suspicion. This would certainly make it easier when we need to respond to emergencies in our waters. On top of that I suggest we begin participating in cooperative military practice tests and operations so we become more comfortable and adjusted to working alongside eachother.”

To the Great Shiekh of the Minarets, Faruq Karimi

I feel it is a wonderful time for diplomatic talks between our two nations(or tribes) to commence. As we are two nations with large Shia populations in a world dominated by other religions, I feel if we build a stronger bond, we can support and defend our Muslim beliefs. Not only that, but we can work together to improve infrastructure, and improve peace and tranquility among the lands of both Soleimani and Waddan. I know you are Chieftan of the Taym-Allat tribe within your nation, and beginning diplomatic talks with you and your tribe would be beneficial to both the people of Soleimani and the people of the Taym-Allat tribe, as well as the Muslim world in general. I also believe that your influence in Soleimani will help reconstitute Muslim beliefs in the southern regions. For this reason, I propose we have a summit shortly after my summit with Ubriekkland. It will be located in a different location in Kermanshu, and there, we can begin talking about how to build a military and religious alliance. You have multiple options for transport, such as by boat or by plane. You may land at the Kermanshu International Airport, from there we can securely transport you and any accompanying persons to the Kermanshu city hall and courtyard.

Sincerely,
      The Executive Senator of the Commonwealth of Soleimani

Tensions Rise in South


As tensions rise in the south, protests are becoming more violent. The government has sent more ISF soldiers and operatives to the highly active southern regions of Soleimani, where rebellious movements are protesting a more socialist and liberal government system, as well as protesting the inclusion of the great religious figure in the Supreme Commonwealth Court. Yesterday afternoon, protesters tackled an ISF officer. They were later arrested. Several large demonstrations have been made in major cities across the south. Today, Gina Parzona, Representative from Newport spoke out on the situation:

Quote
We understand that this situation is becoming serious, and we are not trying to suppress it. We must work with these people to target certain issues which they feel must be attended to. However, there are certain limits, for example, we absolutely refuse to remove the Messiah from his role as the Court Justice. We understand that this situation is becoming increasingly dangerous, and we must find a way to put a halt to these protests as soon as possible, and find common ground.

However, Ervin Aria, representative of one of the southern regions, spoke out today criticizing the Messiah and his role in the government and saying that the protesters “have a point” and that they should be heard:

Quote
It is understandable why we must control these protests for the well-being and safety of our citizens, however, their argument is very valid. I feel it is necessary that we re-structure the government, and ensure further justice for all citizens, as well as regulation of the economy. It is completely illogical to have a religious figure in one of the lead roles in our government. We’re living in the 21st century! Not the 7th. You cannot have a religious figure make decisions for the entire people of the commonwealth. There will most certainly be bias.

This rift in the government itself could possibly lead to further tensions between the North and South.

Perceval Martialis Jundt

As the roaring sound of the fighters faded away into the distance, he greeted and introduced himself to the several people dressed in suits who accompanied him as he exited the ship. They quickly transported him to a luxurious vehicle, and the motorcade surrounding him got rolling. As they drove through the city, the High Lord took in the busy and lively surroundings. This was his first experience in Soleimani, and he watched as they passed skyscrapers, then shorter buildings, then houses, and now they were on a busy highway traveling through the woods and hills. The High Lord was anticipating his meet with the Executive and the other High Council members, this was a much needed summit. After a while, the High Lord was informed by his driver that they had arrived in Tehrestan and were approaching the High Council building. This city was incredibly different from the port city in which they entered. The High Lord exited the vehicle and him and his representatives were quickly brought into the grand halls of the historic High Council building.

Secretary of State

“Welcome, High Lord, let me introduce myself, I am Benyamin Nahal, Secretary of State of the Commonwealth of Soleimani, you are Mr. Jundt, correct?”
“Indeed, but you can call me Perceval. These here are my representatives from the different regions of our country.”
Benyamin individually shakes everybody’s hand and greets them
“Well then, please, follow me, we will be starting our meeting in the Carlias room. There will be members of the press there, obviously, but you can feel free to walk around the area as you wish during your meeting. We will be dining in the Banquet Hall at 7:30.”

Perceval

As he walks towards the room where the meeting will commence, Perceval continues to take in the grand architecture of Soleimani. Reporters follow him and the representatives at a distance, with cameras flashing away. He wonders to himself what the Executive will be like, what exactly they will talk about. He does have a basic idea of topics he wants to get to, but he is unaware of specifically what they’ll achieve tonight. Finally, they open the doors to the room in which their meeting will commence. At the end of the room sits a smiling man in a leather chair, with several other men and women standing beside him. The High lord walks towards him and the man gets up from his chair and shakes his hand.
“While hello! Greetings! I have been long awaiting you’re arrival, I am the Executive Senator of the Commonwealth, please, sit down, make yourself comfortable. I feel like first we should get to know everyone, these people beside me are the other members of the High Council, and I see you’ve brought your representatives as well.”
After taking a moment for everyone to greet everyone else, the Executive sat back down and pointed to a row of chairs right next to him for all of the representatives and the High alors to sit in.
“Well, Mr. Jundt, what shall we discuss first?”

Executive Debuts New Official Transport



The Executive Senator’s new official car is not what most would expect, it is a 1969 Warner Hellhound Bowman Edition. The car is a modified version of one of the original models, of which there are only 130 of left in the entire world. On the outside, the car looks very standard, however, there are a number of safety measures implemented into the car. For example, the windows are bulletproof and the trunk has a first aid kit, there is secret ventilation in the cabin in case of a chemical attack. When the light covers lift up, instead of headlights under them, there’s a machine gun on under the right cover and a tear gas sprayer under the left cover. This is why you don’t ever see the covers raised, even at night. The cars engine is turbocharged to compensate for the additional weight, and the underside of the car has mine-resistant plating. There is a sheet of bulletproof plating in the doors and hood. The inside of the car retains most of its standard aesthetic features, including its leather seats and chestnut trim. However, a hidden command module is located in the front console, where the executive can contact other members of the high council.

SSCARA-Soleimani Stock Car Auto Racing Association



SSCARA is the national professional stock car racing league in Soleimani Commonwealth. The league consists of two separate series. The Pro Stock Series and the National Semi-Pro Series. The Pro series is the main series with the most publicity and profit. The Semi-Pro series is like a training series for young racers to see who’s got what it takes to enter the pro series. The series starts every spring on March 3rd, with the initial race, and ends with the annual ceremonial 500 lap event which takes place at the Bowman Speedway in Kermanshu. Each season consists of 32 races. The season is based on a point system, where the higher you place in each race the more points you get. The final race does not determine who wins the season, but it does determine who wins the Rostami cup, which is given to the winner of the Bowman 500. The closer you finish to first, the farther back you’ll start in the next race.

Rules:

Caution Flag:
When the yellow flag is displayed and the yellow caution lights around the track come on, the field is frozen immediately at the moment of caution. All scoring ends immediately and cars are to slow to pace vehicle speed. Cars will line up behind the pace vehicle in the order in which they passed the last scoring loop on track (there are as many as 18 loops around all standard SSCARA tracks, although the one at the start/finish line is the only one that counts for official race statistics). The exception to this rule is if the yellow flag waves after the white flag is thrown or if the race will not be restarted (typically for rain; but sometimes for darkness if a track does not have night lights), in which case SSCARA will use video evidence to determine the finishing order.

When the caution comes out, the pit lane is immediately closed, a rule first implemented following the 1997 Bostonia 400. This is shown by a flashing red light at the entrance to pit road. Entering pit road when it is closed (with certain exceptions) is a penalty of restarting at the rear of the field. When pit road is open, a steady green light will appear at the entrance to pit road, and a green light will come on in the rear window of the pace vehicle.

Penalties:
Restarting at the End of the Line for the Ensuing Restart   
-Pitting before pit road is open, administered if a driver enters pit road while the flashing lights indicating pit road is closed are on (certain exceptions apply)
-Pitting out of order
Stop and Go Penalty   
-Removing equipment from assigned pit area.
-Speeding on pit road during pass-through penalty.

Officials Fearful of Increased Military Spending


Soleimani Secretaries are displeased with the massive increase in military spending as of late. Soleimani Secretary of Finance and Treasury made a statement today, saying: “We understand the need for a strong military to make sure other countries know not to underestimate us, however, the High Council’s recent shift of focus to the military had become quite alarming. At the moment, we are increasing our budget to produce newer models meant to replace perfectly fine assets. Last year, we spent 32% more on the military than the year prior, thats 14.2 billion more makans than the year before, and this year, were projected to spend 46% more than last year! This is quite simply unacceptable. That’s 14.2 billion that could’ve gone into international aid, welfare and numerous other aspects of the government. It’s about time the High Council realizes that they’ve gotten a bit trigger happy and should reduce military spending in the coming years.”

Meanwhile, the Secretary of Defense argues that: “Listen, you need to realize that there are countries out there in Mundus with dozens of carriers and destroyers. We need to be prepared for all threats. In fact, I think as of late we’ve been thinking of more strategic ways to spend our money, to make sure we aren’t wasting any. We have invested in smaller carriers like the Fenway Class carrier of which we have two of under construction. We are investing in more advanced technologies which are unique and capable of holding their own against juggernaut militaries like Rokkenjima. That’s just hypothetical, we are not at all challenging Rokkenjima. Plus, we need to make sure we have a strong navy to assist the Republic of Armin due to their lack of a strong naval force.”

Absolutely, we will be more than happy to have your representatives visit as well, as they’ll be able to cooperate with our High Council members. As for the transport, rest assured we’ll make sure you can dock by boat at Bostonia, where we’ll have Executive Transport waiting for you and the Representatives. From there you will travel to Tehrestan where the official summit will be held. As an option for extra security during these rebellious times, we may have your boat escorted by F-23s the moment you enter our waters.

Sincerely,
The Executive Senator

Building the Foundation for Diplomatic Relations with Ubriekkland

To our northern neighbors, I feel now that we have broke the ice by assisting eachother and monitoring the rebellious activity near our border, it is time to start formal relations. This is an invitation written by me, the Executive Senator of the Commonwealth of Soleimani, to Ubriekkland’s general government, for a summit between me and your High Lord, Perceval Martialis Jundt. I feel this way, we would be able to further discuss how to improve our military relations, and hopefully set the foundation for a diplomatic relationship in the future. We would be able to discuss certain topics, such as the construction of your Navy, and how we would be able to assist.

The summit, if you agree to come, will take place at the High Council Building in Tehrestan. During the summit, I’ll make sure your High Lord will become familiar with all eight members of the High Council, as well as our Chief Justice. Your High Lord and any accompanying personnel can land by helicopter at the Capital Heliport, where we’ll have Executive Transport waiting for you.

Sincerely,
The Executive Senator

Soleimani and ROA Flex Military Muscle


Yesterday afternoon, military tests began off the coast of the Republic of Armin. The tests appeared to have featured a naval strike group at first glance. The ROA head of Air Fighter Forces spoke out this morning: “We were testing the combat effectiveness of what we call our ultimate carrier strike group. This group would be used to intimidate any countries during tense times, but will also be utilized in the case that we go to war. The group contains both Soleimani ships and aircraft as well as Armin ships and aircraft. We are simply trying to prove ourselves, and remind other countries to not underestimate our power. We conducted the mission in the secluded waters off the coast of the ROA, far from most cargo and cruise routes.” The military exercise featured one Leeman class carrier, one Giarn class carrier, three Bobtail Class destroyers, two Squid class frigates, two Octopus class submarines, two Cuttlefish class amphibious landing docks, one ROA Darbani class frigate and one ROA Collaray class destroyer.

In addition to the ships, the exercise featured ten F-23 aircraft, 20 F-34 Aircraft and 15 ROA EF-200 Aircraft which were stationed on the Leeman class carrier. In addition to that, there were 4 E-6 aircraft, 10 ROA F-35B Aircraft as well as 12 ROA A-35 Aircraft, all of which were stationed on the Giarn class carrier when they were not in the air. The mission also featured 4 NM-4 tactical helicopters and 10 temporarily navalised H-332 helicopters which were stationed in the amphibious landing docks when not in action.

ISF Sent to Ubriekkland Border


Following recent rebellious and communist activity in Ubriekkland in close proximity to the Ubriekkland-Soleimani border, the Internal Special Forces have been sent to the region to monitor the area and make sure no Ubriekkland rebels would be able to escape into the Commonwealth. The Executive Senator has even offered to send assistance via Internal Special Forces across the border and into Ubriekkland to help suppress the communist rebellions in the region. We spoke with the Executive today: “It really would do both of our nations good. We would be fighting for Ubriekkland as well as ourselves, because these rebels might become a threat to us if we don’t stop these movements soon. This would also be a good way to start possible diplomatic relations with our northern neighbors, and I don’t see many reasons that we shouldn’t take action and offer help. It is exactly for this reason that we have invested so much in our military. To assist other nations.”

ASOF Looking to Purchase New Aircraft


Recently, there have been talks of the Navy's Amphibious and Special Operations Forces looking to purchase new Electronic Warfare Aircraft. We spoke with the head of the ASOF division of the Navy, Linda Carnell. She said: "It is true that as of late, ASOF has been looking to expand its assets into the air. Electronic Warfare would be very beneficial to ASOF, and would fit our theme and mission of carrying out special operations and secret missions. These aircraft would be able to disturb enemy signals and radio frequencies to make us harder to detect, and weaken the enemy." Carnell later spoke about how the Amphibious and Special Operations Forces were originally looking to buy the E-6 model of aircraft, which is currently being used by the Air Force, but later decided they wanted to buy the far newer E-23, which is produced by Sellin and Carinder. This prompted questions over whether the Air Force is soon looking to replace its E-6 fleet with the newer model as well, to which Carnell said: "To me, it would only make sense for the Air Force to buy some of these E-23s. They are the natural successor to the aging E-6. However, I know Brian Cranston(Head of the DCF), and he certainly likes his E-6s, so I don't know." If the Air Force were to buy E-23s to replace the E-6s, this would entirely eliminate SoleiForce from the DCF, as the newer model is produced by two cooperating companies, Sellin and Carinder.

The Air Force has also spoke out about their interest in purchasing a squadron or two of H-8s, which are currently being operated by the ROA, and would also be a nice compliment to the Mobar class Amphibious Carrier that the Naval Support Forces are looking to possibly buy, as they would be able to take off and land vertically. The aircraft would also be relatively cheap, as they are somewhat dated. There was further speculation that the Air Force is looking to soon replace its A-25s with the more advanced A-35s, which are also currently operated by the ROA, and are the flagship of the Republic's Air Force.

The Soleimani Chronicle


OOC: Hello! Welcome to the Commonwealth Chronicle. This time, I’ve decided to try something a bit different. Since the Informer is the basic news source, I decided it would be interesting to create a biased news source. The Chronicle, if that’s the name that I keep, will be a politically conservative right-wing news source. Please don’t get offended by things I post here, this is merely to create some variety and experiment, and also to add some realism. I may do a liberal news outlet as well. I’ll try not to dip to deep into stereotypes, as I’m taking this seriously and will always try to be neutral and be open to both sides of the argument. However, I may end up in some stereotypes, but that’s just inevitable with things like this. For the mean time I’ll focus on the Commonwealth Informer, but hopefully I’ll be able to start posting here soon. Hope you enjoy!

Soleimani Orders Highly Advanced Submarine for ASOF



Recently, Soleimani’s Naval Director spoke about the ordering of several new submarines of an unidentified class. According to him, the new submarines will be the most advanced and stealthiest submarine class in Ardia. The submarines will be used by the Amphibious and Special Operations Division of the navy and will be constructed and the Port Bostonia shipyards. The class will fittingly be named the Bostonia class. It will be able to reach a top speed of 27 knots and will be twice as quiet as the Octopus class which the ASOF currently uses. The class will not be replacing any other submarines at the moment. The ships will be able to carry out top secret stealth intercept missions and will be manned by 12 highly trained officers and 130 enlisted each. The submarine will be able to dive to 800 feet.

The ASOF has also ordered five new Osmena Class stealth patrol ships which are to be built in the Carter Redman dockyards on lake Escurion.

Executive Cruises Planning New Island Routes



Amidst the major expansion of Rokkenjima’s ocean liners, Executive Cruises is offering new and exclusive destinations. Executive Cruises seems to see this as a competition, as the two companies are running in similar fields. In an attempt to expand service across Mundus, Executive Cruises is now offering island routes through the islands of Lodja, Paracambi and Bakkermaya. The Cruise route will have multiple stops at resorts and luxury vacation spots, and will be mainly run by the Allure Class ship, Grand Sapphire. The Sovereignty class ship, the Grand Majesty, will be running the route during the fall season.

The new Grand Sapphire will feature 2 outdoor pools, three outdoor hot tubs, one indoor pool, three indoor hot tubs, waterslides, a specialty lounge, 14 restaurants across the ship, including world class fine dining such as Chef Amier’s, a performance theater, a secondary arts theater, a running track, numerous shops, and much more. The ships will be stopping at a popular snorkeling beach in Bakkermaya, and will even have available paragliding and jet ski classes.

The CEO of Executive Cruises has recently spoke about multiple new ships currently planned for construction or under construction, he also mentioned the specific ships they ordered, including three new Allure class ships, two new Sovereignty class ships, 2 new Monarch class ships, as well as four new ships of another class entirely, a new class which has not yet been revealed, and is under the moniker, Project Unbeatable.

Executive Cruises Expands Routes


New routes and ships have been recently added to the already massively growing Soleimani cruise empire. In response to major service expansion by Rokkenjima’s Blue Star Ocean Liners, Executive Cruises is now offering weekend spring trips through the Azure Fox Sea, with many stops in Achkaerin as well as a cruise by of the arctic coast. The route will be run by a new Sovereignty class ship, the Grand Empress. The cruise company is also working on a new ship of the medium-sized Allure class. The ship’s name has not yet been revealed, however, the ship is expected to run a route through the Gulf of Safraen, with stops at Clysperis, Safraen, Abydos, Izhitza and Achkaerin.

Legislation Passed Regarding Orthodox Muslims


After mounting pressure from Tamora, the High Council passed legislation today supporting orthodox Muslims in the Commonwealth. The legislation promotes and funds the growth of orthodox Muslim communities, as well as limiting questionable freedoms in orthodox populated areas. The Secretary of Foreign Policy spoke earlier today, saying; “We’re working with Midaranye to make sure that our orthodox Muslims are cared for, and that our communities in which they live in are suited to their preferences, which includes limits on gambling, drinking, and promotion of local mosques. This is all part of an effort to maintain Muslim culture, both orthodox and progressive, in our country.

Construction Finished on New Cruise Ship



Yesterday afternoon, the final bolts were fitted into the hull of the Grand Monarch, the latest cruise ship built by Executive Cruises. The Monarch is the first of its class, but more are expected to be constructed soon. Executive Cruises CEO Haleh Rostami spoke earlier today on how the new cruise ship will help the company grow, and also advertised some features on the cruise ship. Being the largest Cruise Line company in the area, it’s quite fitting that their latest ship has broken so many records. The class is the largest class to ever be operated by the Commonwealth. During a press conference today, Executive Cruises Commercial Director George Caldwell spoke about the expected routes this ship will take.

In the winter, the massive cruise ship will sail out of Port Bostonia, and cruise through the Krimeon Sea with stops at Heyra, Kaewen, Jutland and Juhi. In the summer time, the ship will sail from Port Bostonia up towards Alba Karinya, with stops at Ubriekkland, Heyra, Hassfurt and Awhaele. The ship will then turn around and stop at Seaforth twice. The latter of those stops will be at Rokk.

The ship will feature two overground pools, one indoor pool, five outdoor hot tubs, three indoor hot tubs, a basketball court, a running track, a gym, eighteen different restaurants across the ship, from fast food to fine dining, as well as a performance theater, tropical lounge and more.

Speaking of Executive Cruises, the Grand Sovereignty sailed on its maiden voyage Friday afternoon, taking off from Kermanshu, and sailing throughout Lake Escurion, stopping in many small towns and vacation spots along the lake. The Sovereignty, which is also the first of its class, is a smaller ship, designed for short voyages through the lake.

Soleimani Commonwealth Provinces

1- Kennebunkport
The Northernmost province in the Commonwealth, this province has a large New Englander population and is one of the only provinces with a Christian presence. The province is famous for its rocky and sandy beaches as well as its lighthouses and historic port towns. Tourists can enjoy nice morning walks on the breezy beaches and cliffs.



2- Newport
Located just south of Kennebunkport, this province is the only other province bordering the ocean. This province contains many similar sandy beaches to Kennebunkport as well as a major New Englander population. This province has historic towns and ports and is also home to Bostonia, a historic major city in Soleimani. Bostonia is a port city and is where a large part of the trade through Sovereignty Bay takes place.



3- East Calonia
East Calonia is home to the capital city of Tehranistan and has a significantly sized lakeside area. The region has many medium sized cities and towns located on Lake Escurion as well as Kermanshu, a major city located on the very northeastern part of Lake Escurion. Towards the west, the province features a part of the dense rainforest and somewhat mountainous landscape that is prevalent in western and southern Soleimani.



4. West Calonia
Located just west of East Calonia, West Calonia isn’t as dense, and has generally more forested areas, however, still not as much as some southern regions. West Calonia still, however, has many towns and cities among its more hilly and somewhat mountainous landscape. On the coast of Lake Escurion, numerous towns and cities are popular spots for tourists, and farther inland, among the mountains, the city of Meehani is a very historical and beautiful tourist destination, with numerous historic monuments and buildings, as well as tree-covered hills surrounding it.
