CNN - Bramstoker City, Bramstoker: The small nation of Bramstoker had minor international publicity yesterday as a bloodless coup d'etat toppled the country's government and placed a Fascist government in charge.

Opposition political leaders, backed by the top officers of the Bramstoker Self Defence Force, are reported to have driven to the Presidential Palace and demanded the government surrender its power or face armed conflict. Faced with overwhelming opposition, the incumbant government resigned en masse and announced the change of power this morning.

The move follows increasing tensions between the far-right political opposition group United Bramstoker Party (UBP) and the incumbant Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) following allegations of corruption at the highest levels of government. However, wider issues of economic monopolies by foreign corporations, a low standard of living and popular disillusionment with the democratic system led to massive public displays of support for the UBP in the last fortnight.

UBP Leader, Thomas Johnathon Rawlings, was inaugurated as President only hours after the Coup attempt was successful. He immediately acted by declaring Bramstoker a 'Theocratic Fascist State', dissolving Parliament and announcing new elections in three weeks time. Until then, President Rawlings has appointed a Provisional Government of the Theocracy from top members of the UBP to continue Affairs of State until the new Parliament takes power. Even then, the composition of the new government is unclear, and no doubt several anaylsts shall be watching the country closely to see what the new government does next.

We will have more on this story as it breaks.

"Hey...Uh...Boss...You might wanna look at this." a young man working at the Oslean International Intelligence agency said to the man in charge. He gave the boss a slip of paper with the report on Bramstoker on it.

"Hmm...Geez. Another fascist government? We gotta keep tabs on this...Notify the President, and the leaders of AIRCOM (air command), SEACOM (sea command), and LANCOM (land command) now."

------

"We need a course of action in case, you know, they kill their people or something. I have a feeling they will soon..." the commander of AIRCOM suggested.

"You want F/A 35s there?"

"Yeah. Load 'em with 500 pound dumb bombs. We just wanna intimidate them, not start a war or something.

-----

The OSS Lady Colleen, an Intrepid Class supercarrier, left the docks with 1 Dauntless Class Heavy Battleship, 1 Ocean Class Helicopter Assault Carrier, 5 Ticonderoga Class Cruisers, 4 Arleigh Burke Class Missile Destroyers, 2 Horizon Class Anti-Aircraft Frigates, and 1 Oliver Hazard Perry Class ASW Frigate .

"Hey, tell me when we get within 1000 miles of Bramstoker. I'll give the command to the rest of the fleet to stop and just float there.

-----

Message to Bramstoker:

We are watching you. Mistreat your people and you will be punished. Fascist governments have a history of crimes against their people. Said crimes will not be tolerated.

Official Government Message

'The United Bramstoker Party has the majority support of the population in its succession to power in the Theocracy. As such, we shall be working for the benefit of the people in everything we do because we represent the people.'

To the great and honorable nation of Bramstoker, we extend an olive leaf of peace and friendship. We hope you would welcome an embassy from our sovereign, as we would surely welcome one from yours. We are hoping to extend the reach of our economy and request opening your borders to our merchants and and we would welcome any merchants from your nation as well. As per Ossyrian traditional economic treaties of the past, we also request that the citizens of our two nations be allowed to freely trade and travel between our two states and be guaranteed safe passage while in the other nation.

If it would so please the right and sovereign nation of Bramstoker, we also would like to request the formal signing of a non-aggression pact in which neither of our two great nations attacks the other or supports the assault of a third party on the other's sovereignty. As a sign of the sincerity of our government, we are also willing to formulate an extradition treaty and assist in returning any fugitives of Bramstoker law within our borders, if there are any.

We have recieved word of a foreign nation prematurely accusing you of not having your peoples' best interests at heart. The official position of the Ossyrian government is that no one nation can be easily classified into a simple category as fascist, monarchy, democracy, or oligarchy. We hope that any foreign nations realize this and that they should not judge your nation unfairly or prematurely. We have detected foreign forces moving in a potentially aggressive move towards Bramstoker, but of course you already know this. If their is anything our nation can provide, do let us know.

We hope you seriously consider our proposals and we would like a response.

Tending to more important matters in another nation, the huge Intrepid-class supercarrier and the boats escorting it diverted its course and sailed towards another nation. The Oslean government decided it was a waste of time and fuel to keep that fleet waiting there for more than a day, and decided to have it actually engage enemies in a hostile nation ripped apart by terrorists.

The waters in which the supercarrier and its fleet were in were eerily quiet and empty, with only a few seagulls flying above and occasionally a sea creature jumping from the ocean from time to time. The military had no business here anymore.

Excellent news, comrade. Our Federal President is out of the country attending the funeral of a foreign leader, but he will be informed of this as soon as he returns. The government has taken control of a building, roughly the same size as the one we will construct in your nation. You will be allowed everything that you have requested. Our ambassador should be arriving shortly if he hasn't already and we will be waiting for Dr. Sway.
