Ethnic strife increases in Yugoslavia, Tito says he will work to maintain unity and keep nationalism under control

Bogi Smerti, ex-Shturmoviki from Taboritsky’s regime, Abbadon, Dirlewanger, and Yao-aligned Mohist Brotherhood committing more war crimes in Eurasia, Batov attempt to stop them but their hit-and-run tactics make them hard to force into a decisive confrontation. (OOC: It’s up to you if Batov stages the insurgency against Yazov like in normal TNO once he finds out about the true scale of the GREAT TRIAL or if he is so disgusted by the war crimes that he radicalizes and believes the GREAT TRIAL is necessary.)

Paris under siege, desperate struggle against SS to take out Burgundian leadership, according to our agents Heinrich Himmler is probably hiding in a bunker right now (OOC: like H*tler in real life)

Angolan forces start a major bombing and counter-insurgency campaign against MPLA forces, meanwhile Rhodesian forces in stalemate with ZANU and ZAPU forces for now, the government decides to do more reforms in hopes of attracting more foreign aid and making its military more efficient.

In the Philippines, a former Japanese collaborationist named Benigno Ramos has risen to prominence within the Rizalist movement, he claims to have survived a plane crash and received a revelation from God that for his work for Filipino independence against the Americans he was chosen by heaven to lead the Rizalists to victory, he preaches that the Philippines is impure with “Spanish and Anglo-American corruption”, he says that Rizal will reveal himself and take his place as the rightful ruler of the Philippines once it is pure. He also claims he can hear the voice of God speaking to him (Banal na Tinig, “Heavenly Voice”), that the Filipinos are God’s true chosen people, that the Philippines is the location of the Biblical Garden of Eden, Ophir, and Sheba, that King Solomon’s gold is hidden somewhere in the Philippines, and that in the end times God will uplift the Philippines above all other nations.
(OOC: Not all of this is Iglesia Watawat ng Lahi doctrine, however there are other groups which actually believe the Philippines is Eden, Ophir, and Sheba, look up “Ophir Philippines” on the Internet and you’ll find there are actually people who believe this, I added this to make him more insane, the discrepancies with normal Rizalist doctrine can be explained as stuff Ramos added from his “divine revelations”.)
