Marxist Revolution shakes Denmark!
Today, the tumultous unrest that begin with the Folketinget(national parliament) dissolving, has ended. A revolutionary council composed of socialist politicians, mainly members of Enhedslisten("unity list", sorta-hardline marxists/environmentalists), Socialistisk Folkeparti("Socialist people", democratic socialists) and DKP-ML("Danish Communist Party", hardline leninists/maoists), has convened in the capital Copenhagen and are now laying out a draft of the new socialist government.

It has so far been agreed upon to re-nationalise all privatized companies and expel multi-national corporations from Danish soil, as well as keeping a democratic parliament composed of all the different socialist doctrines in the nation, along with the neo-conservative and right-wing ideologues who are now enjoying only scant 3-4% of the populations support, in comparison to the 35+% they had when they were elected for government in 2000. It is thought that the many abolisments of welfare institutions and corporate warmongering perpetrated by the former right-wing government has led to this extreme increase in socialist support. While the nation's parliament has been re-instated and the people being able to hold elections again next year it is thought the nation has remained a constitutional democracy, although it is in practice dominated by marxists that has designs on making the nation a Socialist Republic.

Communist tidings gripping other Scandinavian nations as well
The revolution in Denmark has serious repercussions around Scandinavia. Norway and Sweden are experiencing a surge of support for the socialist parties, and leader of Sweden, prime minister Göran Persson is expressing concern that the revolution may spred on to the other Scandinavian nations.

Unrest is soon under control..
While "peace" was "kept" by AK-47-wielding members of ORDKP(extremist wing of the DKP-ML) during the revolution, the nation's police force is now grudgingly accepting the new government and has set about restoring peaceful conditions in the land - Hjemmeværnet(the Danish national guard) is being put into the few cities where riots had occurred, extremist right- as well as leftwingers using the confusion to strike at political enemies. The professional army, traditionally dominated by Conservatives, were thought to stage a coup, but has as yet stayed out of the turmoil and is expected to pledge loyalty to the revolution any day now. We bring you more news of events as they progress. Good day!

Somewhere in the TransCorp Megapolex of what was once Linkoeping Sweden, one Wazzuian looks to another and speaks up, "These socialists are absoluty nuts. What are they on about? Socialist uprising, here?"

"Ahh, pay it no mind." the other responded, "It's just propaganda for their population. Historical Structuralist ya know, must control everyone with camoflauged fascism."

New developments in Communist Denmark!
The Danish parliament(Folketinget) has been reinstated as a permanent democratic institution today, composed primarily of the Danish socialist parties, among these syndicalists, marxists and social democrats. The Conservatives and Venstre(two ultra-right neoconservative parties that used to be the nation's government) are allowed their place in parliament, in keeping with the nations new and strong commitment to political and civic freedom, although with their total support rating of 8.5% they are unlikely to attain power in Denmark again.

The former minister of state Anders Fogh Rasmussen(Venstre), had this to say before being led out of Folketinget to face a regular existence:
"This is an outrage and an insult to all democratic tradition! Those moronic communists are going to turn this into another opressive dictatorship!"
The former minister of state had more to say, but was too upset at the moment. He is currently under observation for hysteric mania.

The many regions and communes Denmark has thus far been divided in remains, although they change from local subsidiaries of the central government to semi-autonomous socialist communes with complete control and ownership of all local capital. A new foreign policy is also underway, and several more and sweeping changes are expected to be made
