2006 - Raising Anti-Globalization protests create a new government law to only trade with the Eurpean Union, allies, NATO, and most of South East Asia. Sufficantly raises export values but creates more demand for imports. Minimum wage and trade unions also weakend.

2007 - National Freedom Alliance gains political majority, and becomes first single party to win a massive majority of 31% of Consulate and wins Chancellor's position. Illegalizes all other parties below 10% popularity in the votes of 2006. Bonito Shifflett, a well known buisnessman and sicilian, takes charge of Head of Party and Chancellorship.

2007 - Racist tensions in Tuscany causes Martial Law and Serbs are attacked. All-Serb Croatia responds by embargo and political harassment, and then ends in Italian Covert attacks, and starts a one-month war which the United Nations and NATO ignores due to economical problems that could arrise by defending against Italy.

2008 - As Albania and Serbia begin economic sanctions on Italy, Montegero and Greece begin heavy Croat and Slav refugee centers to take in anyone wanting to leave the newly-founded racist coalitions (Italy and Croatia versus Serbia and Albania).

2008 - Cure for the bird flu in Venice found on accident by an AIDs researcher and the new neoFascist-like Chancellorship begins to monopolize the vaccine and sells for high prices in China, Romania, and Japan. Most nations can only afford enough to cover their beurocracies. Wealthy begin to by dozens and then sell for double, causing international commotion.

2008 - Croatia is given territorial rights, but not annexed, however, is heavily dependant on Italy, and a puppeted government system is implaced with elections of all possitions except a dictative-like possition, simular to that of Italy.

2009 - Albania begins to harass Italian-controlled Croatia with percision air strikes blammed on Arab terrorists and smuggling arms into the country to feed resistance, which is slowly being pulled off to camps into Sicily, with Tuscany clean of all non-Roman desent and Croatia's population has cut in half due to famine and war casualties.

2010 - Chancellor Shifflett of Italy demands international coalition against all Serb, Croat, and Slav majoritized countries, and gets no support, with a European Union warning due to Albania's joining from increased economic power from military demand in the country.

2010 - Chancellor Shifflett orders fleets to blockade every Former Yugoslav country across the Italian penninsula, and begins a showdown with the remaining E3 members (United Kingdom and France) and political backlash causes a ban on exporting the Bird Flu vaccine in the United Kingdom, which starts to have massive problems with almost a hundred being infected. Romania comes into play as pro-Italian only for hopes of getting cheaper trade and the bird flu vaccine at lower price.

Current Information

A blockade has been deployed around Albania, Montegro, and Serbia. Although weak, it has stopped many incomming merchant ships, including state-owned trade ships from various countries, and has even turned away German exporters, causing great commotion to Germany and the remaining E3.

Ukraine and Italy have begun cooperations, Italy trading off (secretly) vital technologies and Ukraine in return supplying agrecultural goods which were lost in Frmr. Yugoslavian trade embargo.

Croatia is filled with resistance, even as puppeting system pledges to be democratic, although it is just an undercover and well-known dictatorship controlled by Shifflett and the Freedom National Alliance.
