Breaking news from the Master's Temple in the Yon region of Alanea has revealed that Stephanie Black will not deliver the annual conference tomorrow, amid controversy over the whereabouts of her father.

The People's Republic of Alanea has existed since the 1950s, but was only revealed officially to the rest of the world in 1996. During this year of fantastic revelation, Sir Arthur Black [father of Stephanie Black] gave a conference in each of the four 'Collumn Countries'. These were the countries who represented the nationals who discovered Alanea during Black's Pacific exploration that began in 1948. His last foreign conference was in London, here he announced the launching of Vetting Island, where foreigners may begin application to become Alanean citizens. Shortly after his return to his residency in Yon, Sir Arthur Black was reported to have died of a respitory illness.

The monarchial power was inherited by Stephanie Black, who formed the Purple Corporaton and all other current corporations in Alanea. During her first years in power, pro-capitalist nations accused her of planning her father's death to ruin his 'Pegasus' philosophy, which stands for environmental and educational excellence with a liberal backdrop.

Today Americans visiting the capital, Saint Arthur's City, accused the Black family of homicide and said Alanea was 'as bad as the Western governments they detest.' Sandra Gustav, Governing Minister of the Purple Corporation, stated that the death of Sir Arthur Black was innocent and that the foreign community should not jump to 'absurd conclusions'.

Meanwhile Gustav will step in for Stephanie Black tomorrow in the Pegasus conference, which will be broadcast to over 6 million viewers. She will discuss, among other things, the heated conflict between the Alanean army and the Black Corporation, and whether or not Alanea will assist in the Union Sith's proposed war.
