The Cottish take-over of Southwestern Norway
Earth II
************************************
OOC: To begin with. This is Earth II. If you do not have Earth II claims, do not post in this thread. Tags and comments are ok though.
I am a Norwegian citizen in real life, and I live in Bergen. Therefore I know all the places and areas described first-hand. So don't come here with any comments about me being wrong when it comes to names or descriptions of places. I most likely have a better knowledge of it then you do. Just so it has been said.
And now, the RP...

Jens Danielsen looked out the window of the field hospital. He had been here for a week, and were finally ready to go home. The Kriegos had given them the plauge. The plauge! After all the years of not resisting to the massive abuses from the government, they were rewarded with the plauge. Thankfully the Cots had come to help them. They had a strange accent, but it was understandable. It was Norwegian, and they had said that Norway was liberated now. It was clear that Norway had been split up, but Jens knew that he was in the Cottish part of Norway. His native city of Bergen had been taken over peacefully by the Cottish forces now, and they were already busy clearing up all the propaganda posters and surveilance equipment that the Kriegos had used to spread their paranoia.
As Jens walked among Bryggen, he saw Cottish soldiers patroling the area, and people walking in the streets. People walking in the streets! It was unheard of just eight days ago! You could get arrested for doing that. Now, the people were starting to realize their new-found freedom and headed for the streets. Then some people walked up to a store and destroyed the window before heading into the shop and starting to loot. As Jens would see, it wasn't a good idea. The Cottish soldiers had clearly been ready for incidents like this, because they rushed to the area and fired a quick burst into the air while ordering everyone to freeze. The poor buggers inside the store and the ones who held stuff in their arms were detained, and trucks came soon thereafter with more soldiers. The people who had attempted to loot were pulled into the trucks after having been told something by the soldiers. Jens wasn't close enough to hear what he had said, but he walked over to a man who had been right next to the soldiers.

"Hello. What did they tell them?"
"They read them their rights. Apparently we have a right for lawyers and a fair trial. It certainly is a change from the old days."
"Yeah. So you think they're better then the Kriegos?"
"Oh yeah. It isn't even a question about it. Did we have rights when the Kriegos were in control? No. Do we now? Yes. So I'm backing the Cottish."
"I guess you're right. Thank you."
"You're welcome. Oh, and congratulations on being liberated."
The man smiled to Jens before he walked away. It sure was a changed society. And the changes would only become more and more obvious.
