[Official Broadcast of HNN]

Today, the citizens of the island of Emathite learned what the word fear truly means, because of a surprise visit from rebel bombers. It was revealed today that the government's efforts to stop a growing insurgency on the large island of Northern Oliss were futile, show by the rebels' ability to secure these bombers and fly into protected airspace to terrorize our citizens. However, the Naval forces quickly mobilized, and managed to shoot down one bomber with an anti-aircraft missile, as well as damage another badly. Hopefully this will discourage any more attacks. In a recent press conference, the Prime Minister discussed these rebels and what they managed to accomplish, as well as reassuring us that their efforts will- I'm sorry, but we have just received a breaking news update. It appears as if enemy guerillas have just secured Southern Oliss, and the true size of this insurgency has been revealed.
This will most likely be another long campaign, and we advise you to stock up on canned foods and other supplies you might need. We wish you good luck from our headquarters here at our fair capital, Path. We will continue to keep you updated; keep watching the ticker at the bottom to see if you need to be evacuated.


Prime Minister Chance walks toward his podium, safely behind thick bullet proof glass. He waves to a few reporters, somehow knowing where they are. As he clears his throat, a silence falls over the press.

"Hello. As you all know, a tragedy has befallen our citizens on the island of Emathite. Shortly afterwards, the rebel leader, who we cannot identify at these time, sent me a personal broadcast, boasting of his achievement, and informing me of exactly what he intends to do and what he wants to accomplish. This man, intends on taking the islands surrounding Northern Oliss, and then becoming the leader of another sovereign country, dividing Heirosoloa in half. Under normal circumstances this would be dealt with politically, but the manner in which he intends to accomplish this goal proves that he cannot be trusted, and that he does not deserve life. This may sound harsh, but the law is never soft and cuddly. This rebel also dared to ask for my compliance, believing that I would surrender many of my fair citizens on the islands surrounding Northern Oliss just to avoid a fight. Let it be known that I will not. But I will not sacrifice their lives either. Our armed forces will defend them. And more importantly, I wish to be there. I intend on being there as we defend our nation, because if my citizens do indeed die, then I have no reason to live. Thank you, that will be all."

[OoC; Alright. So in short, these rebel insurgents, which will also be under my control, are attempting to separate themselves, as well as gaining a few more islands for the resources, power, and simply land that it will provide them with. This war is mainly because I am incredibly bored, and losing interest in II. What the rebels have (supplies, vehicles, manpower, etc.) is unknown as of right now. I intend to reveal it at a later time once nations begin to pick sides. But they do indeed have some supplies.]

Television screen turns black, before revealing a man in a black mask which resembles some large bird of prey. Only his mouth is revealed, which is curved in a smile.

"Hello. Future citizens, future corpses, future enemies, future allies. We of Northern Oliss, and now Southern Oliss, have indeed announced our bid for independence. Because, frankly, we do not believe in this democratic propaganda we are being force fed. We believe that the best way to rule a country is with one man, and no one else. Instead of this tiring bureaucratic system in place, with all these Ministers and Ministries, a single rule would be so much more efficient. Decisions can be made snap second, and there will be no bickering. No arguing. Only efficiency. And if you believe the same way we do, then come. Join us. And fight for us. For our independence. Because we cannot achieve anything the way these petty pacifists try to. The most efficient way, the only efficient way, is to simply shove opponents out of the way. Because only then can you master the level of efficiency needed to accomplish man's true goals. Conquest, exploration, and mastery over nature. Too long have these hurricanes dominated our culture and lives. Now we will dominate them! We will control nature, because our efficiency will allow us to discover the methods needed to do this. It will allow us to become gods among men.
Now, maybe you believe this is utter nonsense. How will you get your way, what you want and need, with only one man who won't listen to you? But at the same time, how do you ever get anything you need with all these petty squabbles over such unimportant things! With one man, it will be easy. If I see that the population needs it, it will be done. But beware all you greedy hoarders. You will not live in our perfect world, because you are not only not needed, but you cast a shadow of evil upon our citizens. You ask for things you do not need, and that, my good friends, is not efficiency. That is simple greed and want, and if we listen to our wants, we will never achieve our goals. NEVER!"
