Bringing you home the truth

Still nothing about King Giovanni
Despite the great mobilization of forces, there are still no news about the disappearance of King Giovanni and Queen Valentina. The Defence Minister, the Marquis Leone Tigrotti declared that they are doing everything in their power in order to find the Royal Family and rescue them. When asked of why it is taking them such a long time to do it he simply said "No Comment" and left.

Protest marches all around in Wine
Yerstuday in the main squares of Nebbiolo, Dolcetto, Barolo, Lambrusco, Grignolino and Moscato, over 15 milion people start a protest march against the Savonarola government, the people are claiming that Savonarola is nothing but an inept, and are asking for new elections for a new Prime Minister to be held.
Some protestors even went further, and asked for a Repubblican government to be installed, they said "if the King is dead, let him rest in peace, it is time for us to become a modern country, we should have a repubblic"
The Internal Minister ordered an immediate arresting of those people, but his orders were overruled by the Parliament which claimed that in the name of Free Speech they can not be arrested simply for stating their ideas.

Economic growth slowing down
After the kidnapping of King Giovanni, many industries are fearing the low stability this event caused, and are moving their companies out of Wine, this is causing a great increase of the unemployment population, the worker unions are protesting against this and are asking the government to do something about it.

The Nebbiolo Times
The free voice of democracy

Sheepstan crisis increase government one
With the news of an upcoming war against the military regime of Field Marshall Dunning, the Defence Minister, the Marquis Leone Tigrotti have asked for permission to the senate and the prime minister to send forces in the area, to be part of the coalition forces.
The senate approved it with 56% of the votes, but the Prime Minister refused to sign, the only way the senate may override a Prime Minister decision over a war is if it obtain the King's approval (which is impossible), or if it passes with 75%+1 of the votes in the senate.
The Marquis Tigrotti have declared himself astonished by the decision of the Prime Minister Savonarola and said that since he feels he no longer fit with the government positions he will resign by his own will from the position of Minister of the Defence.

This declaration have caused much unhappiness among the military, many famous and important generals and admirals declared that they agree 100% with the Marquis Tigrotti disgust in the Savonarola's administration.

The Marquis Leone Tigrotti is very popular among the military, because of his past as an helicopter pilot, and because he is recognized as an hero, when, only 26 years old, he managed to save alone all the crew members of the WS Loano, whose destroyer had been destroyed by an inside explosion.

Protest marches on a new height
Today the number of people protesting against the poor government effort in trying to rescue the royal family, and in not taking a clear position in the Sheepstan conflict reached a new height, especially after the resignation from office of the Marquis Leone Tigrotti.
Unfortunatly some of this protests turned on violence after some protester destroyed some stores in Barolo, and were later charged by the police.
Many people are asking for Savonarola to resign and to proclaim the Repubblic of Wine, claiming that Savonarola is no better than Field Marshall Dunning.

To Wine Government:
The Nation of Jackson would like to extend any assitance to your nation. We also have been looking our intelligence sources and we may believe we know what course the terrorist that kidnaped your King and Queen. We are still trying to track all the information down but we believe we have found the location that they held the King of Wine for sometime before moving again.

[WARNING: RIAW INTERNAL REPORTS, EXTREMELY SECRET, PLEASE ACT AS IF YOU NEVER READ THEM BLA BLA BLA... YOU KNOW IT]

From: Agent 001
To: Chief Agent 000

We managed to infiltrate some of our men into the CFLA HeadQuarter, it seems that they keep moving King Giovanni and Queen Valentina every three days. They are smart, also they have been ordered to kill them both if something go wrong.
Currently they are held in the old prison in Stromboli Island, it is a too risky to act now, we will have to try to liberate them when they are moved to a better place for us.

From: Agent 002
To: Chief Agent 000

Nothing new about Savoia, it seems that their secret services are actually trying to discover where King Giovanni is as well, maybe we were wrong about Prince Amedeo.

From: Agent 003
To: Chief Agent 000

Horrible news, we managed to discover, thanks to some infos given us by Agent 001, that many relatives or close friends of the Prime Minister Count Savonarola are members of the CFLA.
We need to act now to prevent the worse, we await your order.

From: Chief Agent 000
To: Agent 003

No, we can't take Savonarola out like that, as it may hurt the position of the King and the Queen, we must think of their safety first, and than we may act to destroy the CFLA once and for all.
Reach Agent 001 and await new orders there.

Bringing you home the truth

Savonarola refuse Jackson's help
The new Prime Minister refused the help of what can be considered the closest ally of Wine, it seems that Jackson had offered many informations gathered by their intelligence agency about the kidnapping of the Royal Family. This refusal created many concerns on many cabinet members, and have caused the resignation from office of the old Foreign Minister, the Count Davide Pianola. Which later gave us those information commenting "Wine need to know the truth: the Prime Minister is a madman"

Earthquake in the cabinet
The resignation of the Defense Minister Leone Tigrotti and the Foreign Minister Davide Pianola, have caused a major earthquake in the cabinet, several other ministers that were working under the Grand Duke Francesco Morelli's government also resigned from their offices, in between them there are the ministers of Education, of the Enviroment, and of Security (police, firefighters etc...).
This news caused a big turmoil in the senate as well, which have claimed that Savonarola needs to step down from his office, or this will mean the death for Wine. Despite that Savonarola refuse to resign from his position.

Protest marches, or revolts?
The number of people protesting against the poor government policies increase day by day, and in many cases those protest end up in violence, over 90 milions people all over Wine joined the protests, ans that accounts for about 9% of the Wine population. But it seems that ther are many more people who support the protests. In Nebbiolo there were some fights between the Police forces and the protester, which ended up in several people wounded and even 3 people being killed: one policeman and two protester.
Many politicians blame this on the poor Savonarola administration of the crisis.
