The transmition begins, broadcasted across the globe.
High General Snowlander once again steps up to the podium. The entire stage is black with gold lines of text written in the language of the ancient Sigmans. For the few on the planet that could read it, it said,"Strength from weakness. Peace through power."
Snowlander spoke. "It was many years ago when my mentor, Hermili Chaknov, helped in the founding of the New Alliance Treaty Organization. NATO was once a feared entity, filling the gaps left behind when the WMNK fell apart. But since then times have changed. We are not the respected nation we once were because of the current NATO, and we have gotten weak and fearful of the world. This can no longer be."
Snowlander raised his fist into the air, inciting the same motion in the soldiers standing within the crowd of Sigmans before the stage. "I am hereby withdrawing my beloved nation from the ranks of NATO, ushering in a new age for our old nation. We shall push forward into a new and brighter future for all Sigmans around the globe."
The crowd burst into cheers save for a few scattered people in the crowd. When the crowd quieted, a single shout could be heard. "Death to Snowlander! Glory to Chaknov!" Automatic weapon fire blasted towards the podium, where Snowlander could be seen diving backwards as his soldiers rushed the gunmen. The feed cuts to static.
