What has been a minor problem for the past few years has erupted violently, causing political scientists to fear that civil war is probable.

Since the aftermath of the Farmina War, and the iteration of the new government, unrest and disorder has always been a problem. Despite the efforts of traditionalist (but not in a conservative manner) liberal campaigners in the government, happiness with the government has been sliding for years. The elections are most probably fixed, as the same parties get almost exactly the same results every polling day.

Yesterday, when the Identity Cards Act was passed due to a conservative, fascist and capitalist majority, the risk took a massive leap.

People are heading for the hills and gathering in large numbers despite the best efforts of the SS. On a related note, Secret Service manpower is also sliding, stretching the 10 Year Containment Effort operation beyond breaking point. The Ascot Exodus to Neo RK is expected to prosper during the next six years, until the TYCE is over, and the possibility of RK's borders being reopened appears...

The Empire of Elskede wishes to assure the Government of Random Kingdom you have our full emotional support, should this decline into war we will be glad to send one thousand troops to assist you and subduing the revolt

OOC: Sorry, I should have made this clear, but I'm getting tired of using Neo RK and have decided to RP my way out of the corner I'm in by means of a civil war, so I'll be engineering the collapse of the government in order to return as much as possible of Random Kingdom to the "old way".

OOC- ahh no problem

IC-

Emperor Offa stormed into the Administrations office, glaring at Propaganda -Lord Wulf Atheson.
"Did you tell Random Kingdom we'd support their government in case of civil war?"
"Yes sir" Wulf nodded
The Emperor grabbed Wulf by his throat "Listen you insignificant servant of a whore, Random Kingdoms government is evil- if anything we will be sending assassins to aide the rebels in purifying the system"

OOC: Since this is chiefly a Random Kingdom incident, I'll be posting IC as Random Kingdom even when Neo RK is concerned. (All RK and NRK posts will go through RK for this RP, and vice-versa for NRK RPs such as the Ascot Exodus)

From now, if I RP another of my nations through another one that nation will be listed in brackets in the IC statement.

IC (Neo RK): Acoran pushed his pen onto the empty paper. As he did, in his mind, he saw the letter he was to write appearing on the paper like a template.

"Dear Cazza of the Cazzaean Liberation Army, Random Kingdom, c/o the Resistance,

I am writing to inform you that the Ministry of Reclamation has your support. The entire armed capability of Neo Random Kingdom, albeit small, is willing to help, and we will be willing to help out in any way, so long as we get a share of any reclaimed technology from Random Kingdom as our Yggdrassil tech-modem has not been received yet. If you find one and are willing to donate the NRKMC it, then please inform.

Yours, AH Acoran Jophe Smith, PM of Reclamation
Neo Random Kingdom"

(OOC: I'm assuming that Meg Herst is either a RK native or a character of minor importance to Farmina here... sorry if I'm wrong...)
BREAKING NEWS- The President of Random Kingdom, the outspoken Meg Herst, has been hospitalized after an attempt to end her life left her badly injured this morning. Witnesses say that "a trenchcoat-wearing man carjacked her limousine, scrambled into the stretch, kicked the president out of the other end and then a group of bystanders rushed over and kicked the poor woman until a passing group of police officers and SS agents pulled them off!"

The temporary loss of RK's President, even though she is mostly symbolic, has shaken the government badly, and some ministers are even resigning to make sure that they aren't the next on the hit-list. Acting President Cameron Zimmerman III is being billed as the most incompetent man for the job by many of his colleagues, so the future of the democracy isn't looking good.

*BREAKING NEWS* - The Government Complex in Victory Point has been bombed, killing most of the people inside and severely wounding everyone else. The attack was most probably caused by an insider, a suicide-bomber in the meeting hall. The building collapsed in on itself with the centre falling first. This obviously sees the beginning of yet another civil war in Random Kingdom, as faction blames faction for the attack. The Liberal Block is the most persecuted, as slowly the truth about the Liberals leaks out - they were Freedom Fighters all along...
