King Airlifted to Safety after Street Protests




Last night large numbers of protesters marched through the streets of the Bergenstein capital in protest against the current High King of Bergenstein. The King was then airlifted in his private helicopter to safety in Abbasid after the situation escalated.


The King was residing in an expensive hotel in the south of Verwaltungstadt and not the Royal Palace. He was protected by his Private Guard who are abbasidi nationals who were all members of the Abbasidi special forces prior to employment by Kunster (King). They had to fire warning shots at the protesters when they entered the building then actually at the protesters who charged at the King. The King was airlifted from the hotel roof along with his Private Guard.


The Protesters was not infact republican. They supported the current Traditionalist Ideals with military expansion and not the new liberal positions that the King was trying to implement. The protesters were chanting the word traitor followed by three beats of drums. The Protesters were particularly calm until they reached the hotel where the King was in fact sleeping when the King then was rudely awoken by people raiding and attacking the hotel.


The Metropolitan Verwaltungstadt Police were called however did nothing to prevent the protesters from attacking the hotel. The Police only controlled the protest in a lenient way outside the hotel.


The Chancellor has yet to officially respond to the exiled King however he is expected to declare a pro traditionalist King in Eric Kunster’s place due to a rumoured dislike to Kunster’s liberal ideals. The Exiled King who is now residing in Abbasid is expected to form an exiled Bergenstein aligned to Abbasid and the modern world

OOC: Time to reinvade Bergenstein?

((I think by any other means the world would have set up a long term occupation by now. It seems obvious that this nation is very easily moved to chaos.))

You had one job, Bergenstein, one job.

I wonder what happened to this country.   

So do we.

Financial Journal

Today we look at the current opportunities that an average Bergen can experience in the modern world of work. Bergenstein has a very limited economy thanks to the current ongoing conflict however many citizens do live and work as normal. The two main industries of work is the arms manufacture and the brewing of beer. There are thousands of small and multiple large breweries that new employees can find themselves work. The work ranges from unskilled to highly skilled labour. The arms industry due to the fine calculations that must be done and attention to detail employers often look for much more skill. The top producers like FN, Steyr, MGS produce thousands of arms a year and export them on a global scale. The arms industry is the most successful element of the current Bergenstein economy.
Another major area of employment is in the military forces. The newly formed Bergen Federal Army is the lowest paid however works with the most modern technology available to Bergenstein. The State armies, or 'private armies' have a much better pay, this is due to a number of reasons but outside connections are at the forefront of the list. Some of these forces are outdated however still are formidable against attackers. There are a number of militias aligned with the current government however these are not always paying occupations, some are purely voluntary.
Agriculture recently has see a sharp rise in profitability thanks to the new shortages of food created by trade embargos. The food production industry is at full stretch and has seen multiple new investments from investors to attempt to increase production. The government has been trying to further this end to possible food shortage after the winter of 2013 when Bergenstein was in ruin.
Small scale local businesses are struggling yet are increasable finding that the competition from major chain businesses is moving abroad. This has allowed the smaller businesses to expand and absorb some of the custom from these major producers. The damage to infrastructure though has been a major drawback to new investors and businesses that relied on regular deliveries.



United Berg Industries, a steal manufacturing corporation that was formed in the 60 when a number of Bergen foundries joined together. In recent years the company has been developing a stat of the art tank, the ubiD95 main battle tank. 60 models were used in the Bergenstein Civil War as part of the Bergan Army. The tanks had no casualties taken and all were returned to the foundry with excellent reports. United Berg Industries today has officially put the tank on sale and as soon as orders have materialised the tank is expected to enter full production. The new Bergen Federal Army is reported to have already secured a decent number of these tanks

Hmm, there should be a price only then will I make an official statement.

2.6 million sents which is pretty good , also please make official purchases in my arms industry thread http://www.usnw.net/t2071-bergenstein-arms-industry

How will I know how much money do I have? LOL.

I'd say between 15 and 30 billion sents to spend

on your military that is, so you have plenty to spend

Oh so a virtual calculated number.

Hmm... let me check later on that. Will be back...

You can check defense expenditures of southeast asian nations probably online of you search a bit. Adjust that number for your population and you should have a fairly realistic number. Of course those expenditures also include pay for soldiers, fuel, operational expenses...

Thanks Qorten, I'm getting the military budget adjusted to match the GDP in the most realistic way.  

Buy quality Bruellan engineered tanks, not some tinfoil Bergen ones.

Hahahaha. The advertisement war.

Pretty much

2.6 million sents

That's a cheap tank. A Monnard is 5 million more a unit.

it's made out of brittle iron or tin foil

Bitter.

Yeh my tanks are cheap (actual cost of the rl D95) My tanks are cheap because we want sales. Brullen tanks are so much more expensive while Bergen ones are cheap and can compete with the Leopard

Actually they are putting it in sale because nobody wants to buy them. #nooffense   This has also gotten my attention.
