Castelia International News
As many new nations make their way onto the international stage, the world of politics is buzzing with alliances, controversy, and threats. In the latest headlines:
In a sudden move, two pairs of nations have formed hurried alliances;
Chesstopia
and
The Zimbabwean Republic
have come together, whilst
N
and
Mistotopia
have joined forces in what could be a potential opposition.
N
has proposed several more alliances; so far, none have been accepted.

The
Chesstopian
government has passed orders for several weapon factories to begin construction. Many people are concerned by this news, and there is a distinct feeling of unrest amongst the Chesstopian people.
---
The
Mistotopian
government has begun forming an army; it is estimated to be formed of about 18,000 troops. Opinion is split on this topic; some say it is essential for the nation's protection, whilst others have labeled it "tyrannic".
Other nations have joined in the war theme;
Terroristopia
is known to be investing large sums of money in terrorism, whilst
N
is apparently working on something named a "void cannon". Both of these have caused considerable concern.
The Zimbabwean Republic
is also known to be developing it's armed forces.
---
In a bizarre move,
Zyrconium
has announced plans to create commercially viable jetpacks; quite how or when they will achieve this - if they
do
succeed - is unknown.

A lone
Ethernian
woman, completely unarmed and heavily pregnant, was sent in an apparent attempt to attack
The Zimbabwean Republic
. She appeared to be very devoted, but entirely failed to breach the border.
The woman sustained several minor injuries during the attack, but nobody was killed.
Many polititions have expressed their disgust at this movement.

In
Caledonia
, an order has been given to research "Arcane Magic"; whilst this research will apparently go ahead, Castelian journalists have speculated that the leader is "loosing his marbles".
Furthermore, rumors are circulating that the
Ethernian
leader is in fact a Seraph. So far, nothing of this has been confirmed.
---
Many nations have begun mining for natural resources; it promises to become a lucrative industry for those who move fast.
---
Finally, in
Ethernia
, a 10 foot tall electric fence is being constructed around the border. There has been surprisingly little criticism of this choice. Analysts suggest that any negative effect has been overshadowed by the disgraceful "attack" on
The Zimbabwean Republic
.
. Executions are very cheap.
