The Office of the President

The Office of the President is the highest executive office of the Federation of Athanes, representing the President of Athanes, his immediate staff and those who report to him. The Office of the President regularly details press releases and occasionaly deals with foreign affairs, whenever the President him/herself feels he/she must be represented by themselves.

The Office was founded in 1951, the first incumbent President Alexander Bishop, whose term lasted for nine years. The current President is Doctor Harry Falkland, who was due to be Prime Minister of Athanes but following the successful assassination of Georgia Winchester, was automatically promoted to the position of President.

Athanes' government system works as a federal semi-presidental republic, with a President and a Prime Minister at its helm. Currently, there is no Prime Minister, but it is expected to be announced soon. Athanes is a democracy based in the Pacific Ocean, and has a thriving economy and a liberal approach to many issues.

The Office of the President regularly issues statements on many issues, both domestic and foreign, and has been choosen to deal with the Athanic Embassy Programme, whose details can be found below. The Office generally issues statements and press releases weekly, covering everything from elections to major wars.

The Office will publish a directorate of press releases and statements so as to give onlookers a quick and easy guide to the releases and statements, which requries little fuss or confusion. See below for the directorate.

The current incumbent is Doctor Harry Falkland, PhD.

All vehicles are permitted as long as they are military vehicles and are not armed. Embassies are located on Embassy Lane, in the capital city of Corinth, a beautiful port city.

Official Statement: The Spurlock Islands

The situation in the Spurlock Islands is failing fast. Despite the arrival of SPURISTA, our peacekeeping forces for the Spurlocks, arriving, conflict between the nations of Tolvan and Kim Jong Ilia looks likely to start a major war in the Spurlocks. The SPURISTA safe zone of East York Island has been established, and while the current total of SPURISTA forces is satisfying, all our peacekeeping efforts may prove futile of Tolvan and Kim Jong Ilia start a war over these small, peaceful islands.

Athanes encourages all nations involved in the conflict not to let the situation in the Spurlocks develop into a major international war which the Spurlocks, and indeed several nations, may never recover from. Violence is not the answer to these disputes, diplomacy is. War does not decide who is right, only who is left.

While Athanes understands the anger of Kim Jong Ilia after their 'research teams' in the Spurlocks disappeared, but sending military forces and attacking Tolvan is most defiantly not the answer. We would encourage Kim Jong Ilia to end military operations in the Spurlocks which look certain to start a war, compromise, and possinly join the peacekeeping effort.

Athanes would encourage discussions between Tolvan, Kim Jong Ilia and other nations claiming territories in the disputed Spurlocks to decide which state controls which territory. Military action will achieve nothing but death in the Spurlocks, as it usually does.

If the situation in the Spurlocks explodes into a major war, the Athanic Armed Forces will be forced to send the ANS Sparta, an Invincible class aircraft carrier and a platoon of Marine Rangers, the special forces branch of the Marine Corps. If SPURISTA is attacked by the forces of any nation, this will be viewed as an act of war.

East York is a safe zone for all. It is a neutral territory, and we will accept and welcome all refugees from the islands of the Spurlocks. However, military forces are unwelcome unless they support the peacekeeping efforts of the SPURISTA.

Athanes hopes that peaceful diplomacy will prevail over the bloodshed of warfare.
