![]() | San Calian Space Program, Emerate Island, Mission Control Building Communications: Orion 17 Lunar...Do you Copy? Over... The Communication Officer sighs and sits back in his chair, rubbing the sides of his head. He had been up since 6:00 AM yesterday. With the possible loss of Orion 17, he hadnt been able to get out of his chair. Communications: "Hey..Orion 17 Orbit, Can you try again to reach the LEM..?" The Communications Officer leans back and closes his eyes for a few minutes, catch a quick rest before attempting anything he can with contact. Franklin Ciacca: "John, Listen, you need to pay attention, I know this is stressful but Sabastian and I have gone over the data before loss of contact...Its..Well, Not good. Franklin sighs and nods at Daniel Franklin Ciacca: "Its the most likely answer." Suddenly the Communications Officer barges into the office, nearly breaking the door. Communication Officer: "John, We have another problem here." | |

![]() | New Years In Fallooplesburg! “Hello, I’m Olivia Ochsenbein, and welcome back to Courier News. The team and I are very happy to be back on air in time for the new year. The Civil War left the whole crew a bit scattered as some of us were drafted and others had to flee their homes to avoid the fighting. But now that it’s over we’re back giving you news on all the important happenings in Fallooplesburg! Obviously this year has been very difficult for some and for the country as a whole. We wish everyone a very happy new year which preparations for celebrations of have started across the country. All state capitals and major cities of Fallooplesburg are having firework shows, including a large one in Belem, many citizens have been flying to Belem to see the show. And we’re actually here right now, so stay tuned if you want to see that in a few minutes the Queen will be broadcasting an end of year address to the whole country. And we’ll switch to that now.” The channel switches to a broadcast of an office, facing towards a podium put in front of Fallooplesburgian flags. Some light chatter is heard in the background until the queen begins speaking “Hello, I’d like to start this broadcast with a moment of silence for those who lost their lives during the war.” the room stays silent for a moment “With the death of Raymond von Aegir III, the creation of the NCSE, joining the Southern Anterian Defense Alliance, the assassination of Noah von Ailmir that ultimately resulted in civil war, and the following reconstruction plans including the creation of the Anterian Free Trade Organization. This year has been the highest of highs and the lowest of lows for Fallooplesburg in a long time, but it’s no use dwelling on the past. The only thing we can do is make our future brighter. See you all in 2021 enjoy the fireworks.” The broadcast cuts again, and switches to the fireworks show over Belem Happy New Year! Junterland and Kistolia | |

But before I forget, I just wanna say Happy New Years y’all, 2020 wasn’t the bad for me and a lot of thing happened this year, primarily for the good. One of which was me finding this region. Although I found it because of how bored I was during lockdown. I’m gonna continue it even when it’s done. Anyway, done with my floats of irl gratitude. | |

![]() | Emerate Island, San Calia Nearly everyone gathered around one of the screens, staring at it. Command Pilot Lewis: "Im coming up on they're last known position now...I still have no eyes on them." The camera on board switch to one looking down through the scope, giving everyone watching a look at the lander. The sight shows the lander in the middle of a rocky area. Command Pilot Lewis: "I-I uh...I dont see any movement down there, Its hard to see anything down there from this altitude." John gets up and heads back up into the office to see the group from before. John Lex: "It has been over 24 hours, and we found the LEM landing sight. Lewis said that it looks like they came down in an extremely rocky area." John stood up and looked at the time, the clock read 8:15. John Lex: "Comms, try a few more times...Just to be sure at this point." Nothing but static. Communications: "Orion 17 Lunar, This Is Comms, do you Copy? Over" Nearly everyone sat up in their chairs and look over at the Communication Officer. Communications: "Orion 17 Lunar Base? Henry, Ben, is that you?!" Suddenly all of the screens start lighting back up, showing information being sent from the LEM and the moon. Commander Henry: "We may have clipped a boulder or two, but we are upright with no hull damage. We can stick around on the moon for the New Year still." With that, the camera flickered and buzzed, showing the LEM leaning heavily against a boulder, one of the landing legs having been ripped off. Ben Begins to hop back towards the LEM, showing Henry on top of the LEM, fixing the antenna on the roof. Commander Henry: "We may have been roughed up with the landing, but Ben and I have done a full ship assessment, only the decent module seems to have been damaged, so we can stay for the New Year." Everyone in the space center clap and breath a sigh of relief, John smiles and chuckles lightly. Pretty much collapsing into his chair, huffing heavily with relief | |

![]() | New Three-Star Tribune Article! ![]() January 2021 Edition: Conlanging in Anteria Conlanging: An Honest Opinion By Kentalis, Editor Conlanging has always been a prominent part of the Anterian community, but lately, it has become even more popular, with more and more people deciding to make their own language. I myself found it interesting as well, so I’ve decided to write an article about it. I will explain how conlangs work, why they can affect someone’s worldbuilding and finally, I will show some examples. Conlangs (Constructed Languages) are languages who are in most cases completely made for creative works (think of Klingoneese for Star Trek), these languages are also known as fictional languages. Anteria’s Conlangs fall into this category, with most languages either being a mix between already existing languages, or something completely new. Conlanging isn’t easy, however. You will need to have experience with (foreign) languages, which is something not everyone has. But, if you decide to make your own conlang and really decide to push through with it, the results will be worth it, since you will finally have made your own language. This alone might determine some people to continue with it. Founder Implements Revisions of Civil Service By Polder Eiland, Editor The Anterian Civil Service is a means for citizens who are not necessarily involved in the Directorate directly to become involved in the day-to-day operations of Anteria, filling in the gaps where the founder and directors cannot always perform their duties, or would prefer to help share the ability to participate in their Directorates. Until recently, the Anterian Civil Service was relatively underdeveloped and disjointed between departments. However, under a new initiative started by Emi, the Founder, every Directorate in Anteria will now have a structure for joining the civil service. The Directorates of Media and Enforcement were two examples of early implementation of this design. The Director of Media had already implemented a similar structure by allowing citizens to become journalists for the Three Star Tribune. This system has allowed journalists to contribute to the paper without taking on the responsibilities of editing or distribution. The Directorate of Enforcement, headed by The Byrdlands, oversees the moderators of the discord server and regional message board, and allows these moderators to perform their duties with and intermediate between the founder’s direct oversight and their immediate decisions. However, the expansion now centralizes the application process for joining the Civil Service to one dispatch, and expands the civil service in several departments. For example, the Directorate of Recruitment has now absorbed the greeters, a group of citizens who greet new members as soon as they join the discord server. Additionally, the Directorate of Roleplay has introduced a Roleplay Council, consisting of three members who serve three month terms and oversee the rules of roleplay. The Civil Service will continue to help Anterians participate in their region where it matters for years to come, and these reforms will hopefully make it much easier for members to find roles they are interested in. Interview with Polder Eiland/Jinkies, Current Director of Media. By Kentalis, Editor [Kentalis] Alright, Tell us a bit about yourself. [Polder Eiland] I'm Jinkies! I've been active on NationStates for seven years under various names. I'm known mostly for my work in the Augustin Alliance and The Black Hawks, though I've done a few other things of note. My recent projects include being Director of Media for Anteria, and I'm currently running for Minister of Foreign Affairs for the Conch Kingdom. [K] Alrighty, next up! Tell a bit about your countries, like the government type. [P] Oh! Sure! For a while, I ran Polder Eiland, which was a small island nation modelled after The Netherlands and Singapore. It was guild republic, with the government structure influence by the Republic of Venice and by the City of London. I now run Aenglicia. Aenglicia is a large communist nation, which ultimately desires to bring as many nations as possible into its fold. However, its position far away from other superpowers is a double-edged sword: it has to influence other nations by starting up proxy wars, etc. [K] Pretty cool, now, what was the best thing you did with any of your countries? [P] Honestly, that's a very difficult question to answer. I suppose I'm very proud of building up the guild republic system in Polder Eiland. I got compliments from a lot of people on it, and I know some people were disappointed to see the switch of my RP nation. [K] Next up, why did you decide to become a part of the Directorate? [P] I decided to become a part of the Directorate because I felt I could effectively work as DoM and excel at my job in a way that was interesting to me and could serve the community. Emi wanted me to make a newspaper, and that had been something I was interested in for some time as well, so when that became my job, I was very excited about it. [K] Final 2 questions, you ready? [P] Yeah! [K] What are your plans for your future contributions to Anteria? [P] I mean, I still plan on being a Journalist with the TST. So that’s one thing. Otherwise, I might consider doing things like contributing to the civil service elsewhere, if needed. Generally, I’m not sure what I want to do with regards to RP, so I’ll have to think about that a good deal. [P] Take your position seriously, do your work, and be creative. You’ve been given a mandate by the founder to create a narrative about little snapshots into Anterian culture. That’s, to me, very beautiful. These news dispatches may survive for years to come. It is your duty and your distinct privilege to tell a story about your region. [K] Thank you for your time. Opinion: Kentalis for Director of Media By Kentalis, Editor Hello, I’m Kentalis, and in case by the time this newspaper gets published, the new Director of Media has already been announced, consider this an announcement of my plans. Basically, my plans include a major expansion of the TST Staff and the amount of TST articles added per publication. In fact, I would like the TST to make a total of eight articles per publication. I would also like to increase the variety of articles, for example making an article about someone’s worldbuilding, or focusing on a particular event which might happen in roleplay, There are, of course, more things we can make articles about, like region affairs and the likes, but that’s all up to you guys. Other than more articles, I would like to announce a new idea, which is Special issues, these newspapers come out alongside the normal newspaper one per three months and it reflects upon the events of the last three months, together with more articles as you would see in a magazine. And finally, I have one important announcement. I can not do this without you all, hence I would request more people to join the TST Staff and try to make articles. After all, Anteria is a community and communities do a lot of things together, hence I ask you, personally, to help me make the TST a staple thing of Anteria. Thank you.

![]() | The Hadian Juche News Network The expected arrival of Valcourian diplomats should be within a couple of days. The beloved Hadian Imperial Advisory has booked the entire Juche Tower Hotel in Cheldian City to accommodate our foreign visitors. The Hadian Imperial Advisor of Foreign Affairs, Oleg Bychkov and along with Hadian's Imperial Advisor of Internal Affairs, Mikhail Viktorovich will be the first to greet our welcoming guest. It is expected our glorious and great God-Emperor Jon will attend to meet the Valcourian diplomats within the couple of days after their arrival. The Hadian Government plans to discuss diplomacy such as embassies and Arctic research of ice cores with Valcourian diplomats along with Hadian access to Valcourian ports to continue Arctic research within their sphere of the world. Our beloved Juche Empire are descendents of a God race that once lived in Hyperborea a land beyond the North Winds. Current Ice core samples have given us a window into the past of our superiority amongst the other races. **(Note to those following: Hadian has found nothing but just ice but will go to any length to prove they are the Master Race in the world. Including false and out right lies to fit their narrative of Hadianism.)** | |
