You're watching CMM, live, with a special news report, for the first time since the Lord General Militant took over. Last week, a small group of rebel TSF operatants, armed with MP5s, infaltrated the General's headquaters, and proceeded to capture and detain him, while a simaltaneous surprise attack by several rebel forces, after a coalition was formed, managed to take over the lax Military bases that were under Militant control. The Emperor was also found alive, having been hiding in the Great Trolskian forest in the time. He is reported to be shaken, but physically well. We'll get more on this juvilent event after the following speach from the rebel force's leader.

"People of Trolsk... We are finally free..."

And there you have it. After this amazing, and totally unprecedented move, the Emperor last night ordered the setting up of a pure democratic government. Even the Supreme Judge of the Courts would be an elected figure. This has ended the hundreds of years worth of total rule by the Emperors and their chosen Prime Ministers. His Royal Highness will still have direct control over the military, as the highest commandant, but the Government will have the powers to choose whether to emplore the Emperor to go to war, or to vote out any illegal attacks. On top of that, the General of the Rebel forces was Lorded on the same day, becoming the new Lord General Militant, second only to the Emperor in military power. We'll bring you more updates as they come, but for now. Lucifer bless thee.

Space Union congratulates the move by your government and that your emperor is still safe. I'm happy to hear that you are moving toward democracy. I hearby then will lift our economic embargo against your nation and return your status as our ally.

Almost every T.V report was showing jubilant people, flooding into the eastern Trolsk city of Edo, within the country of Edoland. The ex-military dictator was being paraded along to the court in handcuffs, but still closely guarded by TSF specialists, armed with MP5s and Kevlar armour. They wanted justice to be done properly, for the people. The Emperor was seated within his summer home, a rather bland affair in comparison to the previous palace, but one that suited the young man's tastes better. He hated pomp and ceremony, and now, by giving all political powers to the people and the Government, he hoped he'd be able to be himself a little more. Picking up the telephone, he punched in the number to the head of the Space Union state.

"My good friend... Tell the intelligence agent, and any refugees over there, it is safe to come home. He's in court as we speak..."

You, sir, are a coward.

You give in this easily to the scum that dare to oppose your rule? You are not fit to run a cattle farm, let alone a country. I hope you are killed for your idiocy and weakness.

The Emperor of Trolsk is busy at the moment, but we, the government, would like to point out, if you bothered to back-check the progress of how this happened, a NUCLEAR WARHEAD was dropped on the Capital before the uprising, where the Emperor's Palace was, by the Trolsk Military. Please refrain from posting such brashheaded comments again.

Then he was weak for not demanding, and indeed earning, the respect of his generals. If he was foolish enough to allow nuclear weapons to be so indiscriminately dropped without proper authorisation, he doesn't deserve to keep them.

Obviously you don't understand the term figure head. The Emperor gave up many of his powers to the people just prior to the attack. The Lord General Militant still had full control over the Nuclear Warheads, though. Do you think that he would bother to ask the Emperor "Oh, could I just nip a Nuclear warhead, blow you to smitherines, and take over in a few months time old chap?" before rebeling? Obviously, you have no understanding over the concept of DEMOCRACY either, since you seem so totalitarian. It's because of the Emperor's love of such an ideal the General rose up in the first place. How can you DEFEND yourself when your own DEFENDERS have all rebelled as well?

I Congratulate you for your freedom. If your nation goes into a civil war, I'll prevent that. If you grant me permission, I will send a Battalion of 600 Airborne Rangers from the 82nd Airborne Division. Their are small forces operating in your country Currently, hunting down the Dictator's staff and militia. Don't be alarmed.

Signed,

Kombayn Nikoladze

A true Emperor, one who would aspire to command a mighty nation and its empire, would realise that democracy is a weakness. People need to be led, not allowed to lead themselves. If he earnt loyalty like true leaders, strong leaders, he wouldn't have the problem he faces today, whereby he is losing his nation.

We thank you for the force, but request they are all sent to our jurisdiction, to be properly tried.

To King James, we have no interest in your dictatorship ideals. It's exactly what we were FIGHTING against in the first place. We here-by block all communications with you, and stop any private trade with your country by our own Arms Manufacture companies.

The lone aircraft droned ever onwards, its crew dutifully attending their platforms, analysing the public communications systems in Trolsk, finding the satellite channel frequencies, as well as those of terrestrial television and radio stations. Information gathering was the current aim, until the order was given to begin the spreading of the first wave of anti-loyalist propaganda.

OOC: Please, someone, inform McLeod that what ever the hell he's posting in reply to what I said, it's under a barrage of IGNORE cannon, INDEFINATLY. Annoying pest disrupting the goddamn story plot.

Official Imperial Response

The Grand Imperium of Risban congratulates the Emperor of Trolsk on his return to power and the people of Trolsk for again turning toward stability.
In an effort to create diplomatic and trade relations between our two nations, the Risban Imperium will gladly give Trolsk $750 Million in aid to help in rebuilding, give health packages from the Risban Red Cross, and invite Trolsk to exchange embassies with Risban, as well as open trade. (For a list of our major exports or other diplomatic questions, please see the Ministry of Foreign Affiars Homepage (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=393941&page=1)).
We wish you the best of luck.

OOC: Dude, if you want it to be closed, write closed. Don't get shitty when someone posts in an RP thread that is, to all intents and purposes, open.

Trolsk thanks Risban. The Government, however, must decline the money for rebuilding. Our main infrastructure was recaptured perfectly intact. They got lax after the seeming 'quell' in Freedom fighter movements. However, we will be setting up a National Historic Landmark where the Capital once was when the fall-out clears. So as to remember the dangers of totalitarism, and to remember the murder of millions by the General's hand.

Actually you my friend are the coward. Not allowing the people to choose their ruler says a whole lot about you. It says that you know that they won't pick you as their ruler and know that your rule will be destroyed if the people have any say.
