Eleven new expressways to connect major Russrashtrian cities

Earlier today, the Russrashtrian Minister of Transport, Hyway Gadkarov, announced a huge plan for the construction of eleven new expressways on several national highways, which would connect major economic and cultural hubs as well as the major cities in the nation. The transport ministry has allocated 80 billion solar galactic rupees to the project which aims to improve connectivity between manufacturing hubs and markets, enhance inland trade, improve intercity travel and encourage tourism.

The project is estimated to provide more than 3,00,000 jobs and boost development and investment in the regions through which it passes. All of the expressways will have five lanes on each side while some of them will also have an additional lane for the charging of electric vehicles. The expressways will have a combined length of more than 5,000 km with a large amount of accompanied infrastructure including more than 450 bridges and flyovers and 38 major river crossings. The expressways will be elevated for most of their length to minimize traffic jams and provide fast and efficient travel.

The eleven planned expressways are:-

1.Mosnow-Teddy Snosburg expressway
2.Belgovsk-Anchorway expressway
3.Caplanovsk-Tuliprotetrovsk expressway
4.Dwisnoshahar-Manasluvsk expressway
5.Linberg-Nashikov expressway
6.Punovsk-Snovosibirsk expressway
7.Ionovsk-Hibernsk expressway
8.Dakshchinburg-Uttartudansk expressway
9.Caplanovsk-Charsov expressway
10.Caplanovsk-Dvikasov expressway
11.Tocsivsk-Helvetovsk expressway

The construction of the planned expressways will start in a few months and is expected to be completed by the end of 2028. The announcement follows the inauguration of the Anchorway-Penguinburg expressway which was completed a few months ago and opened to traffic last week. Transport Minister, Gadkarov said that the expressways will boost Russrashtria's economy and benefit manufacturing and other industries as well as common people.

By the way, what is the current year in the rp?

Kolchelia

KOLCHELIAN ECONOMY STRONGER THAN EVER

Read the headlines in Straussberg. Cheers erupted throughout the nation. The economy took its biggest hit ever soon after the Conservative Party assumed control, and it was almost entirely blamed on them. The mid-terms solidified this, as the Populists gained one of the largest majorities in Parliament ever seen for any party. Their coalition with the Social Democratic Party allowed them to get a Prime Minister in power, too, albeit with some concessions as the S-Ds are the 2nd largest party in the nation.

Prime Minister Freinhausen’s work has not only caused the economy to fully stabilize, but it has bounced back and has steadily grown, withnemployment experiencing the first bits of growth recently, and the Kolchelian Industry is also making a comeback in many areas. The Prime Minister is soon to authorize 25 million Aredums to be spent on creating more work buildings, and 7 million to support the National Administration of Aeronautics and the Study of Space, NAASS, the nation’s space program. Kolchelia’s future is looking bright, and the Prime Minister is sure to secure re-election.

Heavy criticism has been lobbed at the Populists, however, following the near collapse of the Manufacturing Industry, pushing Kolchelia down to 11th in the Region, being formerly in the top 5. Representatives have assured that bail-outs and more funding of the Industry are soon to be sent, but many have doubts, and especially the thousands of workers recently laid off.

Let Them Eat Cake

A hush falls over the crowd mingling in the spacious atrium as a sharp dressed, clean shaven man takes the stage, reaching a podium illuminated by spotlight.

"Good evening ladies, gentlemen, and other distinguished guests. My name is Darius Thorne and I have the pleasure of welcoming you all to Lorthos for our landing day celebrations. This is a proud time for our nation, a time to recall the adversities we've overcome and the accomplishments we've achieved. I am the first president of Lorthos to invite foreign powers to Lorthos for this event, but I view it only as suitable. We did not come this far alone, and if you'll pardon the joke no nation is an island, metaphorically speaking. "
The speaker chuckles to himself before continuing enthusiastically.

"So please, enjoy the festivities! We have live music and dancing in the hall, if you look out the long glass windows stretching along the wall to your left you'll be able to watch the fireworks, and we've tables set out with delicious Lorthosian specialty food and drink. Tonight's about new starts, we hope you'll let the evening's events and socialization inspire you in turn!"

The speaker snaps and on cue music starts, as waiters begin to circulate with libations and platters of treats. Outside, the first of the fireworks goes off.

"Enjoy yourselves, and happy Landing Day!"

With that, the speaker exits the stage to a lively round of applause.

OOC: The Landing Day celebrations are on! Please feel free to tag myself or any other attending nation and start an RP with their attending member(s). Have fun!

National Instability

"After several weeks of radio silence, reports of have surfaced of national instability within Laskirda. Protests have broken out within the nation's capitol as the government seems to be in disarray. There has yet to be a statement released by state media, however information has been leaked that several government institutions have been infiltrated by dissidents sponsored by foreign far-right radicals. As to what nation this group originated from remains unclear, and work on the geothermal plant has slowed to a halt as a result of this turmoil. However, the intercontinental railway to Turkmenistan mk 2 remains active, and surprisingly, the traffic seems to have increased."

Lotoarean Space Administration update

Wet Dress Rehersal complete
Today, LSA has peformed a Wet Dress Rehersal of their Lotoseus rocket in preperarion for its second launch. This test was delayed 3 days ago due to technical problems. This tested the rcoket, launch tower, fueling systems and the water deluxe system. This was the final major test of the rocket before launch. The LSA said that we are very close to finally opening a effective way to launch sattelites from Lotoarea to space. We are still go for launch in 12 days (1 IRL day).

Update on the third launch preperation
In the last 12 days, a lot has happened in Stanislas Rocket Testing Facility. The first stage and the second stage have both rolled out to the testing site and begun testing. The third stage has almost completed all of its tests. The fairings are still waiting at Poindexter Space Center and the LMS-1 satellite is awaiting transport to the Space Center for preperations and processing. It looks like LSA is rapidly preparing for the first operational launch of Lotoseus. The launch will likely happen in 4 months (10 IRL days).

One year anniversary of the First Flight of Lotoseus
Exactly one year ago, Lotoseus has blasted off for the first time from LP-01 in Poindexter Space Center. This was the very first rocket launch from Lotoarea. It was attended by more that 75 thousand Lotoareans, including important Lotoarean political figures and 450 thousand watched it live. This flight was partially succesful. The only problem that occured was that the third stage cutoff it's engines 5 second early and missing it's intended orbit, but it still was a succesful mission and gave a Lotoarean way to space.

Hello everyone, it's time for another Grand Minister Transparency Update or GMTU.
This term has been a blur in all honesty, lots of smaller wheels turning but some great payoffs lately!

We've just rolled out our updates to the Kavonian map, adding rivers and biomes information, but our NPC nations also continue to progress well with international storylines in development:
While things very nearly escalated into all out war Rashedi Tamudia was forced into a tense standoff by the Lorthosian Defensive Pact, but that conflict is almost inevitable sooner or later and both sides will be seeking allies for the coming war.
Yukotabania continues to forcibly annex smaller people unchallenged (so far), when will they be stopped? Who could stand alone against them?
A new landmass has been discovered in the north, what will become of it? Is it inhabited? What resources might be found there?

Speaking of resources, our RP Minister Scherzinger has been hard at work on the resource distribution project. This project will distribute natural resources and establish manufactured goods suitable for trade. This way you can safely claim your industrial niches with international recognition and add new value and depth to international trade agreements!

Our Minister of War reports a successful raid on the antagonist region of Christania, whose closing is in progress. This is a particularly fitting defense of Kavonian values and interests in advance of our next elections. Thus always to spammers!
If you'd like to join future military exercises just send a telegram to IDEVK and they'll get you sorted.

If you haven't yet, I would also like to encourage you to join the Landing Day celebration RP event in Lorthos, even if you're a bit fashionably late. It runs all week, hopefully you'll get a chance to interact via a more personal, character based RP that will get us all a little out of our announcements-via-news-story comfort zone. Establish your leaders, then build some personal stories with other leaders!

This concludes this transparency update, I hope to RP with you all soon!
Cheers,
Lorthos
Grand Minister

Launch attempt scrubbed

Today, The Lotoarean Space Administration attempted to launch their Lotoseus rocket for the second time, however technical problems occured on the rocket and the countdown holded at T-12:24 for the rest of the launch window. This caused a delay of the launch. The LSA is currently investigating the reason of these technical difficulties and fix it for the next launch attempt, which is in 18 hours (90 IRL minutes). We wish LSA that Lotoseus will launch in the next attempt and get to orbit succesfully.

Landing Day in Lorthos

The Grand Duchess, Austeja Nojus has touched down in Lorthos for the Landing Day celebration. Upon arriving her private Grand Duchy Airbus A350 aircraft was met with a water cannon salute at the New Haven International Airport. The plane taxis to remote area away from the passenger terminal. The plane stops and air stairs are brought up to the door. The aircraft door opens. Two representatives from each branch of the Johannan Militaristic Forces (Air Force, Army, and Navy) walk side by side in sequence down the steps and onto the taxiway where they are met by members of the local Lorthosian press. Next out of the door and down the steps side by side are two flag bearers; one holding the Lorthos flag and the other one holding the flag of Johanna. They each stand at the bottom of the stairs holding the flags high.

The Grand Duchess Austeja Nojus steps out of her private aircraft smiling and waving at the local press. Gina Farco one of Johanna’s top celebrity stylist has styled and accompanied the Grand Duchess as she attends Landing Day. Styled in a salmon pink colored two piece skirt suit, with salmon colored pumps to match, covered in the finest silver jewelry of Johanna, and wavy curls to match the occasion; the Grand Duchess wants to make sure she represent her nation well. The Johannan National Anthem begins to play as she starts walking down the air stairs while being accompanied by her stylist and body guards.

Everything seems to be going well, until her heel misses a step, causing the Grand Duchess to slip. The crowd gasps but thankfully her security catches her before she fully falls. The crowd cheers. Shaken up a bit, she laughs it off and continues down the steps for a brief press conference.

“That definitely would’ve been an embarrassing fall,” she laughed as she begins to speak with the flags of both nations now gracing her background. “I probably would’ve had to run back up these stairs and gone back to Johanna—just kidding. My name is Austeja Nojus and I am the Grand Duchess of Johanna. I bring you greetings from the people of Johanna. To the President of Lorthos, President Darius Thorne and to the people of this great nation: Thank you for the invitation. You all might not know this but this is my first time being invited to an event like this outside of Johanna. This is also my first time visiting your great nation since being the Grand Duchess of Johanna. I’m here to not only represent Johanna but also take part in the festivities and culture of Lorthos. Landing Day is a week long event I hear, and even though I’m a day or two late I’m here to be that bridge between the people of Johanna while I’m here. Lorthos is definitely a nation that Johanna looks up to and we can learn a lot. Im sure to have a grand time while I’m here and hope to celebrate and learn a lot from your people. Thank you!”

She ends her speech with a wave and walks to a nearby all black car with very tinted windows. The car whisks her away to her hotel so she can begin to prepare for the celebration.

Landing Day in Lorthos

Farokandi Prime Minister Sabira Kimzakoz and Minister of Foreign Relations Gulchera Tirdaleva have arrived in Lorthos for the nation's landing day celebrations. They, along with 3 body guards, arrived in Sabira's FKC-155 private jet in New Haven International Airport. They were met with a large crowd of citizens and reporters.

Sabira cleared her throat and addressed the crowd. "Greetings to you all. I am Prime Minister Sabira Kimzakoz of Farokand, and it is great to be here in Lorthos today. I come here from the distant tropical archipelago of Farokand to represent my beautiful country. Farokand would like to thank your nation for all the support it has given since our civil war, and for its loyalty as an ally. But I would personally like to say that it is truly a pleasure to be in your great country—and I'm only a few steps away from the plane that took me here!" She chuckled. "President Ashurov told me to say that he apologizes for not being able to make it to the festivities. And I am sorry for the delay in getting here; there was a frightful storm over Enerisal International Airport that set things back. Regardless, this will be an important event for international relations and, once again, I'm glad I'm here to witness it all." With that, Sabira and Gulchera, accompanied by their body guards, were driven off to prepare for the festivities.

Shots Fired at Protests in New Krow
Citizens and sailors protest against Rolkland decision to have mandatory military occupation and escorts in every port city. New Krow, being the biggest port city, had the largest people, averaging around 300 people each day. Yesterday afternoon, the daily protest became violent after a confrontation with General Daniel Turk. Protesters planned to go to a local bar, where Turk and a troop were eating, to protest peacefully.

The General and soldiers hid in the bar for their safety, until Turk himself went out to talk to the protesters. Before he could speak, the posters threw rocks and oysters. Enraged, Turk ordered twenty soldiers, including himself to fire upon the crowd. Mass panic ensued, causing the crowd to run away, trampling people. While protesters ran away, Turk shot multiple civilians running and was stopped by one of the soldiers and detained.

The event counts up 29 people shot, and 98 trampled to death, including 3 soldiers. Totaling to 127 dead and 153 injured. The soldiers were trialed for 20 years each, and Daniel Turk was sentenced to death. Military occupation is lessened in New Krow, but not removed.
