BRITISH DELEGATES RECEIVED IN CELEBRATION
It is being reported that people all over Russia, on hearing of the british delegations arrival, spontanously left their farms and factories to dance in the streets and embrace each other with joy. Everywhere one goes, one hears british music, and the young men and women dress up in the latest fashions of London. Books about british imperial adventures are being translated into russian, and are widely read and most popular amongst the readers. "We must not however," said the Cabinets spokesman, "forget that hard work lies ahead, and these moments of celebration should not give way to folly or slender in the ambition to transform Russia into a modern, democratic society. We urge, that the people return to their work as soon as possible, so that the transformation of these lands to a working democracy can be as painless as possible." So said the cabinets spokesman. The preliminary assembly expects popular elections to be made in approximately 3 months.

NO NEWS OF GERMAN DELEGATES
While there has been talks with leading german officials concerning the democratic and industrial reform, russian emissaries still have a hard time signing the treaty with the germans as well as applying the practical arrangements, which have to be made, should the democratic alliance be fully workable. The russian cabinet secretary therefore requests the german protector to change attitude to Worshipful, so that these arrangements for the sake of the alliance can be made.

Rome Tribunal Summary from the last two months:

Germany Tries to cover up aggressive advance!

Earlier today we recieved the official German "excuse" regarding their invassion of the Low countries.
The Netherlands was suposedly ruled by an evil despot and Germany "Liberated" Amsterdam.
"I have not heard such a grand collection of horsedroppings in my entire life!" was the spontanious response of a high Italian statesman who prefers to remain anonymous.
The Netherlands where clearly not run by a despot! That is ridiculous, the nation was probably more Democratic than Germany is now, by far! We are talking about the nation which is practically the birthplace of free thinking, a nation where voting has taken place for a long time, a proud and rich nation whit wealthy collonies in Asia, America and Africa. This is the second official excuse we have gotten from Germany, and it is not an inch better than the first one.
The people of netherlands are oppressed by a foul german dictator who calls himself democratic, yet how can a nation be democratic when it denies other nations the very right to be exactly that?
The democratic routines and Bureocrasy structure is regarded a state secret by Germany, Russia and Brittain, and no other nation has rights to it unless it is conquered by the aformentioned nations.
Now this in my eyes are something very far from the true democratic ideals that these nations claim to have as thier goal!
What I see is the three most powerfull nations of Europe ganging up on the rest of the world, what is come of this we cannot imagine, but whit such strong partners the author of this article thinks that Brittain might have shot herself in the foot so to speak, when the mightiest nations of Europe are allied to eachother they are bound to reach a point where one of them is dominating the other two, at this point it seems to be Germany. The German empire can attack where, when and how it wants whitout the other nations of the treaty being able to object, Germany does as she pleases and the British diplomats try cover her misstakes and agressivness.
Which brings me to another thing:
In the official reply to the outrage in the civilized world Germany didn't mention the war whit Denmark!
Trying to direct the eyes of the public towards the events in Netherlands where Germany claims to have a legitimate goal, she is very quite about Denmark.
The proud nordic nation of Denmark, is still fighting a desparate war on its own territory!
And nobody cares becouse nobody has the courage to stand up to Germany and her lackeys!
Something is very wrong in the world when something like this is allowed to happen!!!

Marroco declares itself to be under attack by the Brittish Empire!
As the world have recieved a message from the Brittish empire about the seizure of Tangiers, the Sultan of Marrocco today formaly declared himself to be under attack by the Brittish Empire!

Another nations integrity has know been violated by the democratic league, and this time suprisingly enough by Brittain, this is something the world would have expected from a nation like Germany, but not civilized Brittain.

Rebelion in Asia!

14th August, Beijing was liberated from its Chinese rebel captors by a 10,000-strong international armed force. The rebels are members of a patriotic mystical martial arts society and have been dubbed "Boxers" because they practice a form of shadowboxing that they believe makes them immune to bullets. They inflicted 3 months of terror on Europeans in China in a protest against "foreign devils" in the country.

The uprising began in May in southern China when the Boxers defeated imperial Chinese government troops before moving northward to take control of Tientsin and Beijing. Foreign governments determined to protect the lives of diplomats, businessmen and missionaries mobilised a joint army including Japanese, French, British, American and German soldiers.

The boxers were driven out of Tientsin in July - but only after killing 1500 Europeans, including the German ambassador. The failure of the imperial government to impose order forced foreign intervention and when the Europeans reached Beijing its ruling Empress Dowager fled.

CUE Forces Defeate Despote in Final Battle - Crowds cheer!

The Netherland Userper has been overthrown in a tremendous battle. Naval support was needed to pry the dictator from his iron grip on Antwerp, but in the end CUE and the Lowland peoples were victorious.

The Republic of the Netherlands has been reinstated with Ioannes' blessing. Their first order of buisness was to join the CUE in a first ever unanimous vote. Outside the Senate, the hoi poloi (yes, the editor does understand that technicly that is redundant as hoi means the) celibrated well into the night and the following morning jigging to tunes like the 1812 oveture and, always a crowd pleaser, Jupiter by Holst. Very fitting.

France warned of the follicies of troop training outside German border.

A disturbing developement outside the German border last month was troop training just outside Mulhouse. The French premier is advised to recall the troops to the French border, lest anything should go wrong, and ignite war all over Europe. Ioannes is quoted to have said, "CUE is for Peace with a capital P, but if nations are unchecked in their aggression, it is up to might to restore order." Just what is meant by this is currently unknown, but this editor is sure that the French people will rue the day when they messed with the peaceful CUE.

If I am not mistaken, I think Bo made a typing mistake, because he told me that he would be back next sunday, so he'll be back in a week, not a month!

BRITAIN CONGRATULATES GERMANY ON ITS CRUSADE.

Mr Smith today launched englands full backing to the new CEU that has been formed and welcomed Holland and Belgiums entrance into it although the misguided leaders of these lands obviously didnt understand the power of the people that the democratic alliance promotes.

TRADE CARAVANS ARRIVE IN BERLIN

Hundreds of trade caravans arrived in berlin today following a cross country treck from the port of hamburg. These were quickly unloaded and the gold sent back to the royal tresury in london. This amount was more that was paid to russia.

A word of warning to turkey get your cavalry unit out of the city space of port said on pain of war. And france do the same thing with respects to germany.

Anglo-Netherlands Society of Great Britain speaks out against CEU

By Godfrey Paxman

The Anglo-Netherlands Society of Great Britain, a hitherto unknown organisation operating out of a garden shed in Lincolnshire, has spoken out against what it considers to be the brutal occupation of the Netherlands by forces operating under the flag of the CEU.

Mr Paul Hanson, acting as spokesman for the 5 other members of the society, had this to say to Gary Smith and the other leaders of the CEU:

"This brutal and forceful occupation of our peaceful nation will not go unpunished. The CEU stands for nothing but the complete and utter subjugation of free will and the advancement of tyranny across the globe".

The society plans to send a small delegation to meet with the Prime Minister on Wednesday, in order to voice their concerns directly. Many fear that relatives living in the Netherlands have been caught up in the fighting, and feel that the PM is in a position to put their minds at ease.

Mr Hanson also made some of-the-cuff remarks about the PM`s lack of punctuation, but made me promise not to print that in the article. Oops.

French-German Border gains fire
Today a messege from Germany arrived at all newspapers warning France to lay off of the troops exercises in France near the German city of Mulhouse. An unknown source says that the French troop movements are just exercises and must be taken due to the recent un-provoked German Agression against the Low Countries. Democracy is for the free they say? Then why did they forcefully conquer and murder thousands of neutral people?

ELECTION WON BY PRO-TSARISTS!
Yesterday the Tsarist party won the first popular election held in Russia in all history, with a marginal vote of 52%. As expected, our former Tsar Nicholas II, who has now entered politics as vigorously, as he before commanded his courts, was elected the first Prime Minister of the Russian Confederation. His first action was to abolish the secret police as an instrument of the past. The government plans to celebrate the promising financial state of our great country by lightening up the burden of the public works programme, as foreign capital is being invested in banks and trade structures. Upon opening a bottle of french champagne, he said "This is a glorious day for peace and prosperity in Russia, as in Europe. We hope not, that events in western Europe should spoil this day of glory, and we ask France as well as our German brothers, not to let fear get in the way of peace and prosperity."

NAVY APPROACHING COPENHAGEN
Upon the request of the Danish Foreign minister, the russian navy yesterday departed for Copenhagen to participate in the countrys naval exercise, an exercise to which the german navy was also invited.

BUSINESS SECTION
Russian trucks rolled into Stockholm with a large stock of latest russian machinery. More loads of gold and machinery are on their way to Central Europe, Scandinavia and the British Isles.
