Strange nuclear detonation on Trolsk
Klaxons within the Capital city of Trolsk, Merdaburg, howled out loudly. Suddenly, all was silent, before a loud explosion and an orange and crimson fire wall washed across the Imperial palace. After the initial firestorm, the whole area sucked inwards, before the implosion reversed into a wall of extreme explosive force.
The cameraman adhusted his equipment, before counting down the seconds before live transmition.
"This is Jannet Suzzi, reporting for FOCKS news. Just minuets ago, as you can see in the distance behind me, a Nuclear explosion occured within the city. The death toll is unknown at the moment, but it is estimated in the millions. HRH the Emperor of Trolsk is also thought to have died, having been resting in his Royal Palace on the city outskirts. We'll get more on the report when the news comes in."

We pray for the people of Trolsk in their time of need, and offer aid and relief supplies.
Official response from:
Executer Viki Hessian, Executer of Transnapastain and the Church of God’s Will
"This is a FOCKES news update. It appears the military have begun mobilising its forces. It's official, we are just recieving an illegal order to cut transmition by the military. I repeat, the military of Trolsk has given us an ille-"
Bullets wizzed overhead from a fast approaching Apache, gunning down the reporter and crew. The pilot checked on his Inter-comm for any other orders as a Kasatka containing TSF (Trolskian Special Forces) personel landed to clear up the area and arrest any survivors.
"This is the Chief of Trolskian Military, Grand General DuPont. Trolsk is becoming more and more corrupt by the minute, with the now dead Emperor having allowed for pitiful puppeet Elections, and the mass media causing anti-authoritant streaks. Martial law has been declared. All Trolskian Military forces are under my command. Any private bodyguard or militia forces that oppose us WILL suffer the same fate as the city.."
Somewhere in Western Trolsk Empire:
"12 hours after the declaration of Military rule by the Trolskian armies, Naval, air and Space divisions, the Imperial loyalists have rallied within a captured amy base. The rag-tag forces consist of various armed bodyguards of VIP politicians and celebrities, some colonial forces that have returned home, armed civillians, and one regional battalion which had refused to acknowledge the illegal martial law order by the higher command. All in all, about 3,000 souls stand against the new dictator, against a million strong army, a powerful navy, and the might of a nuclear weapon armed space station. Despite the recent martially enforced blockade of the media, we are 'illegally' sending this broadcast to any citizens still with access to a working television. The horrible slaughter of the citizens of our capital in the military's nuclear strike, and the executions of media journalists and T.V Camera crew have shocked us all here, the sole remenants of FOCKES news. We will continue to broadcast the war effort against the dictatorship forces, but Trolskian Military have indeed blockaded the entire Empire, censored all news coming out, and have somehow ammased a means to explain the detonation of the nuclear warhead in the capital city as the sabotage of a Nuclear power plant by anti-governmentarian forces. All we can do is hope and pray these few men have the courage to fight on. This is Ken Brooklyne of FOCKES news. Good luck, and Lucifer protect you."

Secetary of State Uz Ilcon came in to the presidential meeting.
"Sir, we've found out today about the fall of Trolsk. A military coup has uprised against the government using nuclear weapons to destroy the government."
President Harsimran Mann, "What exactly happened?"
"Well, this morning a nuclear detonation occured at their capital killing countless civilians and killing the emperor."
A tear came into Harsimran's eyes as he mentally morned the death of his close ally.
"Theres more. After the coup occured, the military headed by some crackpot general has taken control and inforced martial law. He has established a dictatorship and is mass killing civilians and going on a terror campaign."
President Harsimran Mann, "this man is ruthless and no where near our great ally, the former government of Trolsk. By the way how much is still left of the former government?"
"Most of the high ranking officials where killed in the explosion, but some lower ranking officials have survived and are waging an underground war against the dictatorship."
Harsimran,"I want to cut off all diplomatic relationships with this the government of Trolsk and I want no recognization of the new dictatorship."
"Okay, but I do have more news. The underground organization is on the brink of collapse and we don't know how much longer they can sustain their current efforts."
Harsimran, "Very well then, I want to pour money, resources, and any other aid we can give to them. Send them sent an anual amount of $2 trillion, food, water, and military supplies."
"What kind of military supplies?"
"I want them sent guns, ammunition, vehicles, tanks, aircrafts, ships, and anything else they need."
"How will they get the training, sir?"
"We will allow them to come here and train to work the vehicles and equipment."
"Yes, Mr. President"

Former chief General Militant of the Trolskian Special Command General Joseph Maximillian sat on the wooden chair, running his fingers across his brows. "This rebellion can't continue without aid. Word has it aswell, that the Militant side might launch another nuke, this time on Gotanus, the one city we still have under control from the damned Dictator. Is there any news on any international aid?"
The old man looked to his second in command, Marshal Gareth McLuski. He was a very young officer, having skipped right into the Officer's club through having the right educational qualifications. However, despite the fact he had never been in a military action before, he had alot of intelligence.
"Well, our spies have reported that the Space Union have cut off diplomatic relations with the Militant rulership. Apparently they've also secretly said they're going to support us. However, we've not had official word from them. The Militants are blocking off all international calls, communications, and the Space Station is apparently also launching attacks on any satilites that come over the Empire. Lucifer only hopes somehow they get their own spies through to us."
A tear came to the eye of the retired officer briefly, before quickly being wiped away.
"But there is some good news.... The 1st Regiment, fully 200 troops per regiment, of the TSF (Trolskian Special Forces, equivilent in equipment and training to the British SAS) have decided to rebel against the Militant rulership and the 2nd TSF regiment have also contacted us, saying they'll openly rebel when the time's right, and they'll report what information they know. However, the 3rd and 4th are still loyal to the General Militant."

I doubt you can afford that. My trade surplus at its height was 1.3 trillion bank notes and that was after nearly 2 years of playing....

Trade surplus has nothing to do with that. Trade surplus doesn't even go to the government. What you are thinking about is Budget surplus and deficit. Budget surplus and deficit are public while trade surplus and deficit are private (free-economy).

What I was trying to say is that 2 trillion is alot of money. I dont think any nations in rl donate that much. The most ive heard is 300-400 billion dollars in aid. Well, I gues you could give him that much if you just ordered your mints to print as much money as was needed.

If you look at my commerce budget (i use this section to fund other nations as i can't find any better category) is over $2 trillion and is almost $3 trillion.
The now recently titled Lord General Militant sat back in the leather chair of his office, taking in the last day or so.
"Computer, analyse the percentage of Trolsk we have under total military control."
The computer screen flashes a few windows up for a few seconds, before the grand total of 75% came on screen.
"Good progress in one day."
The middle aged dictator grinned, tapping a newly ring encrusted hand on the desk before him. Soon, he'll crush the last of the resistance, and set up a new age of Trolsk, one that didn't starve its Military of all funding like the last.
(OOC: My defense budged for several real time months was 0% on the NSEconomy calculator.)
The previous Emperor David Thurlow crawled through the mud, his body bruised in many places, with his clothes ragged and worn. He had survived the blast, just, since he was out on an unscheduled walk in the forest, wanting time to get away from the beurocracy of leadership. What had happened, he didn't know. All he knew was that he was alone in the grand forest of Trolsk Central, and a huge military movement of Trolskian marked attack helicopter aircraft had just recently passed overhead. And by the sounds of screaming and shooting from nearby, they weren't friendly.
