Colerica
24-12-2003, 21:58
The Emperor of the United Empire of Colerica, Maderic Thra, is now on Rilosian soil, to make a speech shortly before his new subjects. Rilos, as we all know now, was annexed last night and is now, officially, part of the United Empire; a colony to Colerica.
Changes are already occuring in Rilos, as the former national flag has been replaced with one that shows Rilos' annexiation and their currency is officially the Colerican credit. The hillside moody is no longer the national animal and has been replaced by the eagle, Colerica's symbol of strength.
We will take to Empeor Thra's speech, live, as soon as it begins....
****
We now take you live to Emperor Maderic Thra's speech at Rilos' grand assembly.

Rally music blares as the crowds roar in applause to the sight of the Emperor of the United Empire of Colerica, Maderic Thra, appear before them. Imperial Royal Gaurds swarm around Maderic like you wouldn't believe; dozens of crimson suits surround the Emperor. Maderic takes to the balcony, overlooking the joint assembly of Parliament on Rilos. As Maderic prepares to speak, the crowd and the music silence.
"Loyal subjects. Esteemed delegates. You are very honored to have me in your presence, I'm sure. Your Emperor is very pleased that all of Parliament turned out for my speech. I some slight," Maderic pauses, "announcements to make. You are all very lucky individuals. All of Rilos' citizens are lucky individuals. You have part of a strong government. A large government. A powerful government. But before I begin to speak like your newly elected President James, I'd wish to change topics, slightly.
It has come to my attention that there is some dissent amongst the Parliament of Rilos regarding your annexation into the United Empire. Dissent is not a good thing, I assure you all. Dissent is something that must be stopped, immediately. Dissent must be crushed. However, there is little that can be done on the behalf of the Parliament of Rilos. As Emperor of the United Empire of Colerica, which now includes Rilos, I hereby disband the Rilosian Parliament. You are no longer needed. The Colerican Empire, not the Rilosian Parliament, will handle all decisions.
President Kath James, I hate to disappoint you, my friend, but you are no longer President of Rilos."
A look of disbelief falls over Kath Jame's face. Thoughts swirl through his head. What have I gotten myself into? "Pardon me, Emperor Thra. What do you mean no longer President of Rilos?" Kath lets out in a weak, shaky voice.
"Exactly that, Mr. James. You are no longer President Kath James of the Armed Republic of Rilos. You are Viceroy Kath James of the Colony of Rilos.
Rilos is no longer a struggling independent nation. You are part of the United Empire of Colerica. All of you voted to do so. You requested that Colerica annex Rilos into the United Empire. We fulfilled your request. Rilos will now see prosperity like it never has before.
With the annexation of your nation into the United Empire, we have effectively doubled the population of the United Empire. While the transition to make Rilos more like Colerica may take a while, we are sure it will not be problematic. As you can see behind me, the Colony of Rilos' flag has changed. It now, more correctly, shows the annexation to the United Empire. The Rilosian dollar is obsolete now, only Colerican credits will be accepted as currency in the Rilos. The majestic eagle has replaced the hillside moody as Rilos' national animal, seeing as you are no longer a nation.
The United Empire's hands of power are already gracing Rilos. We will keep a firm grip on Rilos. Why, already we have breathed new life into the economy of this colony. Terrific changes are occurring all around Rilos. Rilosians, by joining the United Empire, you have pledged your lives, your fortunes, and your sacred honor to the Empire and myself. I have great faith that you will not fail me. Citizens of the United Empire of Colerica: Believe. Obey. Fight!" Maderic says and walks off the stage, leaving the crowd to roar, again, with applause and approval of their Emperor.

That was Emperor Maderic Thra, his Excellency, live from the Rilos grand assembly. As we heard him say, great changes are taking place in Rilos. Maderic, in an expected move, has disbanded the Parliament of Rilos, leaving all decisions to made by himself and now-appointed Viceroy Kath James. We will continue to cover this story.
