This morning as the Emperor and members of the goverment gathered in the Capital City, to announce the recent membership of The Empire, into the International Fleet, Terror Struck!

Members of a right wing radical group,(led by former Buben Imperial Forces General Kozak Tohan) chose the announcement of The Historical Alliance to show there resolve for the progressive nature to which the goverment continues to move toward.

As the announcement begun by The Emperor, with goverment officals from all the member states, three explosive blasts ripped through the cheerfull event,immediatly killing several police officers and innocent bystanders who gathered to watch festivities

Special Forces immediatly sprung into action following the first blast. By the time the second blast had detonated, all goverment officals had been whisked away to safety. The blasts were several hunderd yards away, no serious damage was done.

Following the blasts armed insurgents appered on the outskirts of the crowd and begun firing toward the stage, all leaders were safely away by the time the insurgents started there attack and special force's again were quick to surround the rebals and cut them off from there leader.

Gunfire was heard through out the area for about twenty minutes, at which time several helicopter gunships smoked the terriost's out of there hole. Upon hearing of his forces dimise the former general put one shot in his head as he hid in a alley way trying to fight off swat members as they spotted him near the Phat Bridge in downtown.

The goverments offical view of this incident won't change there stance on The International Fleet, and it's belived the goverment still plans to go ahead with moving of the Empire into the International Fleet Region.
