BREAKING NEWS: Founding of the Democratic Republic of Cypron

Cypron
25-06-2008, 00:26
After thirty years of struggle, victory came at last for Pheodile Mevrett and his blue conquerors of Cypron. In Cypron City's historic National Square (immediately renamed as the Republic Square), the Cypron Nationalist Liberation Front proclaimed the beginning of their new dynasty. Supreme Commander Pheodile Mevrett of the CNLF cried out to the Cypron public via Cypron TV-1:

"Today is an historic day in the history of all peoples. Let the future historians say that our accomplishments in this revolution and the immediate process of reconstruction will be a complete success. It is this day that we announce the establishment of the Democratic Republic of Cypron. We must erase the fascist crimes of the previous colonial government and help out our comrades in this time of need. We must ensure our independence over all concerned matters by refusing to participate in the World Assembly. We must ensure our survival by uniting with all countries and peoples that love peace and freedom and establish eternal friendships with them. Glory to the Republic!"

The newly independent Cypron's new so-called "Democratic Republic" will be entirely led by Pheodile Mevrett and his CLNF. Mevrett described the new regime as a "democratic dictatorship."

As of this writing, all television stations in Cypron (including Cypron TV-1 and Cypron TV-2) and news media outlets have been taken over by the CLNF. We will update you on this story as it develops.

The Democratic Republic of Cypron sends its thanks to the kind nations of Call to Power and Higgdom. At this time, we do not need any assistance. However, if all nations could be on the look out for these men. They were high ranking members of the colonial government and need to stand trial for treason and crimes against humanity. If a formal extradition treaty needs to be worked out, then we will be more than able to cooperate with you in this manner.

DRC's Most Wanted:

1. Governor Daniel Harris (Colonial Governor)
2. Captain Todd Vancet (Head of the infamous A-22 Political Prison)
3. Lt. Governor David Jones (Colonial Lt. Governor)
4. Mike Sherey (Chairman of the Cypron Tax Corporation)

The Democratic Republic of Cypron would appreciate it if all nations could look out for these men and extradite them back to the homeland at the earliest convenience.

Meet the New Boss, Same as the Old Boss?


As the civilian population of Cypron tried to piece their lives back together from both the oppression from the former colonial government and the final chaotic chapters of the so-called "Democratic Revolution," there is a sense of wariness that is engulfing the streets of all major cities.

All foreign journalists and some foreign businessmen have been kicked out of the country on the accounts of "imperialist activities." The Cypron National Liberation Force's (CNLF) "Blue Men" have now taken over the duties of the now-decommissioned local and county police. Portraits of Supreme Commander Pheodile Mevrett of the CNLF, founder and leader of this new Democratic Republic of Cypron, are being produced at a massive rate and being placed in the public eye.

There are rumors flowing around that all members of the former colonial government, except for maybe four or five, have been executed without trial. However, it is hard to decipher any news because all domestic news media has been nationalized and all foreigners (except for a few businessmen) have been kicked out of the country. The country's only two television stations, Cypron TV-1 and Cypron TV-2 have already fallen under the control of the CNLF.

Cypron TV-1 has played nothing, but a continuous repeat of Supreme Commander Mevrett's speech in Republic Square (formerly National Square) where he officially founded this "Democratic Republic."

Cypron TV-2 has been playing bizarre propaganda segments that looked to have been pre-shot about thirty or forty years ago. One segment resembles a child's cartoon show called "Comrade Pets." In this segment, talking house pets discuss how pets, children, and their parents are going to love the future "democratic centralized society." Another segment, is a live-action skit with a young married couple singing and dancing on grassy hills, while proclaiming their love for the "national liberation from the colonial fascists."

While most civilians have lived in relative peace since the end of the revolution, some have not been so lucky. A few civilians have drawn out the ire and suspicion of the "Blue Men" for being "imperialist sympathizers" and "fascist collaborators." The fates of these unlucky few have not been determined at this time.

Even though the CNLF has closed down all political prisons and repealed all former colonial restrictions, there is a nausea that has encompassed the entire nation. The people of Cypron have already started wandering (not publicly, of course) if the new boss will be the same as the old boss.

RE: Welcome to the neighborhood

We at ASoil welcome Pheodile Mevrett, the CNLF, and the nation of Cypron to the world stage. As you may know, the environment is an important part of life here on earth, and as such, we would like to provide you with an alternative to fossil fuels. We produce high quality Algae Oil, which can be processed and used the same way as fossil fuels. As a benefit, the production of Algae Oil removes excess CO2 from the air, leading to better, cleaner air. The algae waste can also be used for other things, such as animal feed, fertilizer or other bio-fuel production systems. This is also much more renewable than fossil fuels, as the rate of production on Algae Oil is only limited by the amount of land dedicated to its growth, and will never run out like fossil fuel deposits.

We are willing to sell Algae Oil and the technology to you, if you are so interested. Algae Oil sells for $50/barrel, and you may feel free to send me any offer you have for technology licensing.

This message is intended for Robert Donovan, Foreign Minister for the Commonwealth of Tolvan. Let it be known that enemies of the state will always be punished and their imperialist crimes are never justified. The great and sovereign people of the Democratic Republic of Cypron demand that he returns to the homeland in order to face trial. If he does not return, then let it be known that Mr. Jones will be tried in absentia. It would be in his best interest to come forth and defend himself, if he truly believes that he is innocent of any crime. However, no more blood will be shed for that fascist tyrant if he remains in your country. He will just have to live with his conscious as an exiled traitorous pig.

CPNA (Cypron People's News Agency) News Update


Cypron City, June 25 (CPNA) -- The ultra-fascist factions of the Commonwealth of Tolvan have decided to give the "imperialist traitor" David Jones political asylum, stirring up great public furor.

Commenting on this, Cypron TV-1 terms this act as a massive human rights violation as David Jones needs to stand trial for his imperialist crimes. Some in the Tolvan media have even stated that this so-called "generous and humane" act to be of "compassion and mercy."

In response to this nauseating situation, Supreme Commander Pheodile Mevrett has declared that "no more blood shall be shed in the name of that tyrant." Commissar George A. Wapner, the selected judge of the trial, has ruled that Jones will be tried "in absentia" on the accounts of "treason", "crimes against humanity", "imperialist oppression", and the "intentional spread of fascism through violent force." If found guilty, Jones would face immediate execution without the possibility of appeal.

CPNA News Update


Cypron City, June 25 (CPNA) -- The glorious patriots of the CNLF have passed several resolutions today, signifying the first steps of establishing a permanent government for the Democratic Republic of Cypron.

In an unanimous vote by all CNLF comrades, the Constitution of the Democratic Republic of Cypron has been ratified. This Constitution calls for the election of a 500-member Democratic Senate that will elect the Republic's first President.

Only the members of the CNLF, in the interests of the people, will be eligible for the seats in the Democratic Senate. However, all counties will able to appoint Selection Committees that will elect the members of the Democratic Senate. Only the members of the CNLF, in the interests of the people, will be eligible to vote in these elections.

Furthermore, our CNLF comrades have also passed a law that outlaws the barbaric practice of "organ selling." This disgusting practice, promoted by the fascist colonial government, allowed citizens to sell their organs to the highest bidder. This disgusting display of capitalism, which was one of the last tenets of the former colonial law, has been eternally squashed from our democratic and free society.

"Who is Mr. Jones?"
by Jonathan Parker

If you don't know who David Jones is, don't feel bad, a recent poll shows that only 9% (+/- 3%) of Tolvans could correctly identify him. David Jones is former Lt. Governor of the now independent nation of Cypron (don't feel bad if you've never heard of them either). Cypronese rebels recently overthrew their foreign backed government and replaced it with one just as tyrannic, but home grown. Somehow David Jones found his way to the Commonwealth and petitioned for asylum. For reasons that were not disclosed his request was granted and he was allowed to retire in solitude to an undisclosed location somewhere in Tolvan.

Of course Jones' asylum has not gone without a response, a leaked communique from Cypron shows that the regime was displeased with this decision to say the least. However, they declared that "no more blood shall be shed in the name of that tyrant", a statement that caused quite a few chuckles at the Combined Staff as any attempt to forcibly detain Mr. Jones would result in the spilling of far more Cypronic blood than Tolvanic.

As you would expect the Commonwealth has been criticised rather intensely in the Cypronic "press" (itself nothing more than propganda rags published by the regime). When asked about the situation MP Richard Barlow (C-West Tinston), Chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee, stated "The ludicrous rantings of the progaganda machine of an oppressive government means about as much to me as who gets voted off "Tolvanic Idol" this week" (my money is on Stacey, her rendition of "Watchmen" was a crime against humanity).

For now we're told the only government response will be increased naval patrols of the waters near Cypron to ensure that Tolvanic shipping operates unmolested.

Cypron City, June 26 (CPNA) -- Congratulations to the Supreme Commander of the heroic and glorious CNLF, "Invincible Hero" Pheodile Mevrett, on winning the Democratic Senate's presidential election to become the first-ever President of the Democratic Republic of Cypron.

As our newly elected President, the "Great Leader" immediately lambasted the actions of all imperialists and fascists. He further declared that this Republic is immortal and its democratic dictatorship cannot be defeated.

Segment of the Great Leader's speech:

"Ladies and gentlemen, as we all know, friends of the state shall always be awarded. However, the actions of the imperialists and fascists will not go unpunished. The people shall be happy to know that the last of these threats in the homeland are dying. It is only a matter of time before the last of their kind is eradicated off the face of this planet!"

In other news, Commissar George A. Wapner, who is presiding over the trial of "imperialist-fascist and traitorous pig" David Jones has ruled that the trial will go on as planned. The enemy of this Republic is currently being taken care of by the fascist government of Tolvan. However, our Great Leader has stated that our sovereign Republic will not attempt to retrieve him by force.

"Enough men, women, and children have died because of that imperialist pig. No more blood shall be shed in his name," the Great Leader said during his presidential speech.

As a result of these circumstances, David Jones will be tried "in absentia." The trial will air live on both Cypron TV-1 and Cypron TV-2. If found guilty of his fascist crimes, David Jones will face immediate execution without the possibility of appeal.

Covert Message to the Government of Cypron

Greetings comrade, I believe my organization may be of help to you. An anonymous "tip" from one of our informants has led us to believe that one of your nation's traitors may be within Volzgrad's sphere of influence. We assure your people that all of our resources are being used to track down this enemy of the people. Once he is found, we will hand him over to you to be "dealt with." As a message of our goodwill, a 100 man unit of the National Volzgradien Intelligence Division will be sent to Cypron to train your police and military forces . If you agree, then they shall arrive with the traitor in a Fulier class war zeppelin.

Also, we can imagine that your armed forces are equipped with some rather lackluster weaponry. To remedy this, the Ravenkov Security Arsenal will be glad to provide your nation with the weaponry available. Simply ask and we will be happy to provide you with all the weaponry necessary.

OFFICIAL PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT

Like most of our colleagues in other nations around the world, we have been following the developments in the newly-formed Democratic Republic of Cypron. Even while we mostly tend to stay on the background in these affairs, we now make this public announcement to state our concern regarding the current affairs in Cypron.

The newly-formed republic has seemingly profiled itself as a highly dictatorial regime that uses unacceptable methods in terms of civilian and political rights. Methods we condemn, and thus making the democratic republic of Cypron a regime we do not support. We urge the Cypronese government to reconsider their current policies, as the international community will not accept these crimes against humanity.

We are aware that the Cypronese government has made a list that contains several names of wanted persons. Van Luxemburg can not, and will not, extradite these persons, as we fear that they may stand an unfair trial, and will be executed without reason. As long as the Van Luxemburger government will not extradite these persons to Cypron, they are free men inside the Grand Duchy.

We do wish to attend all Van Luxemburger citizens that a negative travel advice has been given for the Democratic Republic of Cypron: all citizens with a Van Luxemburger passport should leave the nation immediately, as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs fears that aggressive actions might be taken by the Cypronese against Van Luxemburger citizens abroad.

Signed,

Jens Blom

The people of Cypron wish to thank your kind nation for its generosity. We agree to these terms and wish to make further plans of upgrading portions of our military with a shopping budget of $2,000,000,000.

Cypron City, June 26 (CPNA) -- In the spirit of international friendship, Chief Bill Huo of the Blue Guard National Security Force has urged all citizens of The Grand Duchy of Van Luxemburg that are currently within our borders to submit to their government's demand that they immediately leave our sovereign nation.

The Great Leader, President Pheodile Mevrett, has said this in response to the developing situation, "The Cypron people understand the concerns of Van Luxemburg government. However, we cannot condone the actions of their local fascists that call for the political asylum of our wanted criminals. These men are fascist pigs that need to stand trial and accept the consequences of their actions. As of this moment, I am issuing an executive order that forbids the execution of any of these fascist pigs if they are found guilty for their fascist crimes. This is in accordance to the unjustifiable international concerns that these traitors would not receive a so-called fair trial and immediate execution."

In related news, as a result of this presidential decree, Commissar George A. Wapner has stated that the traitorous-pig David Jones will now face permanent exile if he is found guilty in his upcoming trial. As we all know, David Jones will be tried "in absentia" due to the fact that the fascist Tolvan government has granted political asylum to the fascist-traitor.

An official statement from either the Foreign Ministry or the Intelligence Commissariat has yet to be released. In economic news..."

End Excerpt

The truth, of course, was much deeper. Mike Sherey had brought with him a good 60% of the funds generated by his Corporation. When discovered hiding inside the nation, Red Tide had offered him complete asylum and a cut of 5% of his funds to live off of. In return, the State would get the rest. Otherwise, he could be sent back to his former colonial residence. He had, of course, accepted.

Cypron City (CPNA) -- Recently, it has been announced by the Red Tidean State News Programming (RTSNP) that the "obese fascist pig" Mike Sherey, former Chairman of the now nationalized Cypron Tax Corporation, has been captured by the Red Tidean officials.

The Totalitarian State of Red Tide2 is another sovereign nation that is fighting the war against fascist imperialism. Although the evil corporate tyrant, Sherey, has been granted asylum in the Red Tidean state, the people of Cypron are glad that the "fascist pig" is rotting in another free society.

There are no plans to put Mike Sherey on trial for his fascist crimes, but he is no longer welcome in our glorious Republic.

In response to the situation, the Great Leader, President Pheodile Mevrett, declared, "That man has been given a fate worse than death. The very idea that a fascist such as him is forced to live in the Red Tidean free state must make his stomach turn. Let it be that he is an eternal slave of the Red Tidean free state as he silently pays for his crimes against humanity."

From: The Grand World Order Office of Foriegn Affairs

Your overuse of the word "Fascist" as a derogatory term shows immaturity to us at the Fascist Federation of The Grand World Order.

Does your nation even know what Fascism is? Not only is it the true, natural way society works in the world (It can even be seen in animal colonies), but it is also the only sane and logical path of a nation. If you knew anything other than your anarcho-communist bullshit, you'd view us in a completely different light.

Under normal circumstances, we would most likely deploy an invasion force to deal with your nation, which, by all GWO terms, is a full-fledged anarchist state. We would capture your leaders, have their heads stuffed and mounted on a wall, then hang their headless bodies upside down in front of the Spire, rotting as blood pours from their neck. However, an enemy of our own state happens to be against you, and we will not help them achieve their goals. Consider yourself extremely lucky.
