August 2: North Fraesia Surrenders
It is confirmed that all combatants loyal to Fraesia have completely surrendered in exchange for immunity. Re-building Fraesia has begun.
"This will be a long process, but will benefit everyone in the end," said Acadian President Alexander Johnson.
Fraesia suffers massive damage, as most combat occurred in cities and towns. Re-building costs are estimated to be millions of Enieos, as well as paying various debts for the war. Even though the fighting has stopped, protests are still occurring in Acadia.
Whether or not Acadia will give Fraesia its independence has not been stated.

August 18: Violent protests in Davis
Davis, Acadia, the city attacked by unmanned Fraesian aircraft, is experiencing large amounts of protests. Reporters say the demonstrators are demanding Fraesia's independence, and want Acadia to stop interfering with foreign politics. Riot police were dispatched to calm the riots, but to no avail.
"You know, the God damn imperialism [is] what's caused this all," a protesters says to ANN. "It wasn't our [Acadia's] land to begin with, yet we still want more."

Major Political Journalists and other important politicians have their own opinions.

"If the Acadian Government is really for the people, they will do what their country as a whole desperately needs. If you trace this war back to the start, you will recall that the Fraesian Confederacy's relations with Acadia were strained because they both claimed New Fraesia as their own. A direct result of ongoing Acadian Imperialism, that has been occuring since the 19th century. Now is the time for a change." says Ronald Banks (D).

However some republicans disagree.
"Fraesia's former government was unstable and on the brink of bankruptcy. Their army was also posing a threat to Acadian security when troops were deployed to the border. There was a problem and we have solved it. I believe the Acadian presence in Fraesia will benefit everyone in the end," says Ben Parker (R).

August 23: Former Fraesian Prime Minister Executed
The Acadian Supreme Court recently sentenced Jacques Varcame, former prime minister of Fraesia, to be sent back to Fraesia, and his punishment to be decided by the Fraesians themselves. The Fraesians hanged him earlier today in one of the devastated towns his army bombed during the war.
"This marks a new beginning," says Alexander Johnson, president of Acadia.

O.O A modern day hanging??

What a world we roleplay in.

Wonder what the repercussions will be knowing that the Acadian Government sent him back knowing he'd most likely be executed.

Dan .. any thing Justice wise that could complicate issues.. I ask Dan since he was very up to date on the laws, and I hope he still is .. lol

The Imperial Federal Kingdom of Grand, Belluterra, and Malo condemns the Acadian handling of the Fraesian Prime Minister, seeing it as a violation of the Union's Charter of Fundamental Rights, Part One, Section Two, Clause Six, which states: "Extradition to a state that is dangerous to the one affected (is prohibited to protect human rights)." We will immediately petition the High Court to review this case in order to decide what should be done about it.

Guys, I added the hanging part to the story to make it similar to the hanging of Saddam Hussein.

The Acadian Supreme Court did not authorize or support the execution of Jacques Varcame, and does not recognize Fraesia as a state that is dangerous to the one affected, as the combat has stopped.

If this is going to cause trouble, I can change it if you would all like me to do so.

Don't worry, the court case is just roleplay (and like most court cases, you have a chance of being found innocent). Out of RP, I like what's being done here

Also, Saddam Hussein wasn't sent to another country to be hanged.

LOL Matt Lauer and Anderson Cooper xDxDxD

Daniel: Right, Saddam Hussein was hanged by the people of his own county.
Carl: LOL, I was hoping someone would notice that.

Spoiler:

Spoiler'd for semi-offtopicness.

I wouldn't consider that off topic, since it is a reference

Well, aside from that, isn't anyone excited about the first part of the news? D: Acadia is slowly changing.

Riots don't sound exciting in the good way D:

This could be a change for the worse or better, depending on how it goes.

LOL Jack

Acadia is slowly changing.

And I'll have a few toys ready when it does.

Nah, you ruined it. You'll see below.

President Johnson signs Clean Energy Bill into Law
Two years since the bill's proposal in the Acadian Senate, the Clean Energy Bill has passed today, calling for the construction of several solar, wind, and nuclear power plants across Acadia. [More]

General Assembly passes Sovereignity Act
At a press conference this week, President Alexander Johnson announced the passing of the Sovereignty Act. This act states that Acadia will continue to govern Fraesia. Article 2 of this act allows Acadian government to use force to occupy land outside of Acadian borders if necessary; without a need of approval from the general assembly. This leaves command of the army to the president and his advisors.

Johnson stated that this act has been enacted in response to Folland's declaration of war on the Ivouixkaw Federation.

Long story short, there has been a change of plans. Originally Fraesia was going to be set free and renamed the Fraesian Republic. Acadia's imperialism was also going to end. But for roleplay purposes, it is not.

D: Oh dear god I've Influenced politics! And already the lines are blurring. Lemme quote my last news.

As of the following morning, ground forces of neither country have yet to cross the border.

Meaning there has been no invasion yet.

*Facepalm*

I should've read it closer. I'll edit it. I really only paid attention to:
"Jets flew into Ivouixkaw and bombed...It is now apparent that a state of war has been declared against the Federation."

Seems like Euphemians have their own "Manifest Destinies"

Can't wait to see who won

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifest_destiny

I've seen the picture on that article before.

Well, if two of the three biggies of Euphemia get into each other's path there's sure as hell huge trouble and roleplay on the way.
