Cautetan

The Cautetan Socialist Militia, aided by a large section of the military and thousands of ordinary citizens, today succeeded in felling to corrupt, oppressive monarchy under which the nation has struggled for decades.
Protests soon turned violent today, as many soldiers ordered to fire on civilians deserted and joined protests, only to be attacked by loyalist forces. The day ended in triumph for the rebels, however, as they overran loyalist strongpoints in cities across the nation, securing all four major cities and sacking the royal palaces in the capital.
The CSM has set up a provisional government to rule until elections can be held, and was swift to declare the Cautetan provinces renamed as the United Socialist States of Cautetan. Martial law has also been declared, at least until the threat of loyalist forces recuperating is well and truly finished.
However, The USSC must now appeal to the international community for aid. Although our people may finally be free, we remain in peril. Our tiny infrastructure simply cannot cope with a civil war- floods of refugees fleeing loyalist held regions are congesting the few roads and railways, and airports are grounded by frequent power failures. We are struggling to create a secure food line into cities from the farmlands in this climate, and fear widespread hunger if the problem is not adressed soon.
On top of this, our military, although eager and loyal to fight for the USSC, is lead by relatively inexperienced officers- almost all the generals and admirals fled south with their few remaining loyal men. Our officers in charge, although competent, are hardly used to such a massive task as running an entire army, let alone leading it to victory against the remaining counter-revolutionaries.
The provisional goverment itself is comprised of relatively inexperienced people. While previous ministers were corrupt and cruel, they at least just barely kept the nation running. The current parliament is indesicive on key issues, and this could be crippling if not dealt with soon.
Which is why we make this appeal. Cautetan does not need monetary or material aid. We need advice. We need to borrow from the experience of larger socialist or communist nations in order to secure a safe future for out people. Our army needs advice in crushing the loyalists and attaining security. And most importantly, we need a champion to protect us as we struggle through one of the hardest phases in our history.
In return, any assisting nations will have influence in the USSC for years to come, and we will ensure our debt is repayed. Be it in resources, support, or research or military installations.
