Good day, citizens.

You might be surprised that of this day, you are seeing me, and not President Kazansky. However, today’s announcement is simply not of his realm of competence. Today’s announcement is in the special realm of the Secretary for Culture and Education, and Mr. Kazansky wanted me to make this announcement.
One of the greatest goods that Allanea has always been famous for is not our wealth, our oil, or our hemp. These can be taken away. But the greatest wealth we had, the greatest gift that God has bestowed on our nation, is the gift of freedom – a gift that nobody can take away.
Today we are experiencing bad tmes – the hardest times in our history as a nation. Foreign troops tread the streats of Port-Allanea. Enemy ships hover in orbit. For the first time in centuries, Allanean are starving in the streets. And for many people, the need for fast, reliable news and communications the greatest in such a moment.
This is why President Kazansky is taking care not only of food supplies, trains, and electricity. He is also taking care of the news. Today, I am pleased to announce that the nation of The Atheist Reality had donated resources towards the building of six macro-transcievers, which will be erected over Allanea.
Those Jericho-941-ETS devices will be able not only to cover all of Allanea with radio, television, and cellular transmission – with the aid of whatever sattelites we may have left – but also to establish subspace transmissions to be received by Allanean expatriates anywhere in the galaxy. Furthermre, they will function as radiotelescopes.
You ask, what the hell do we need radiotelescopes for? We already know there’s life out there. The 5-kiloton explosions have proved it but too well. But the study of far away stars, the physics of the universe and other such things will be kept up – if only because the knowledge might prove useful.
The erection of the Jericho-941-ETS telescopes will begin in a few days. We would like to express our thanks to TAR in the name of the Allanean people for helping the reconstruction of our nation.
May God Bless Allanea

The phrase: "Allaneans for a better future needs donations" appears on the screen, then fades.

In a secret meeting of the Elders of Zarahemla regarding the status of Allanea and possible Aid, the speaker is interrupted by a messenger, telling them to turn on the Allanean news network. After hearing the full story, and recognizing their own proposed cover story for a Planetary shield project, the entire council laughs as the burden they were going to charge over 500 billion for was now taken up by TAR, for free! "Well then, meeting ajurned for now!"
