"Hi and welcome to SDNN News. We celebrate 100 years as a nation today. The Swedish Union was offically formed in 1904 when the six kingdoms of Norrland, Svealand, Götaland, Lappland, Ingermanland and Uppland was unified under one flag, but it was geographically recognized in 1948. We have lived through war and turmoil, Peace and Prosperity. We will honor this day by looking back at SD history."

NAME: President Tim Kocharian - The Weak
PERIOD of RULE 2002 - 2004
Efforts: He won the election against George Andersson. The Public viewed him with suspicion at start but when the economy started rising and the Quality of Living became better they loved him. But it all ended when communist rebels suprised him and forced him to resign. Their leader, Lars Svensson (http://www.nysol.se/noos/pics_interv/leijonborg.jpg) became dictator. But under enourmous international pressure he resigned and returned power to Tim Kocharian. He suffered again when Monarchic Nationalists overthrowed the Federal Government and replaced it with an Absolute Monarchy.

The Newly-Formed* Ineffable Empire sends its congratulations, and hopes to see the Swedish Dominions last another hundred years at least.

*OOC: In 2004 the Ineffable Empire was a mere decade old. The Ineffable Empire commonly known is over 300 years old, and thusly future-techish.

OOC: What about between 1970 and 95, on your list of Monarchs?

IC: The Emperor and Imperial Regent of Falastur would like to congratulate the people of the Swedish Dominions, and in particular their Royal Family, for 100 years of existence, an event not lost on the people of Falastur as they approach 300 years of Falasturian rule. In recognition of this great milestone, as a gift from the Empire of Falastur, has been commissioned a crown, to be named the Centennial Coronet and emblazoned with a gem from every year of your existence. It will be delivered with great occasion as soon as it had finished being crafted. We can only hope that you will accept our gift, and cherish it.
