The Federal Council Republic of Pilipinas and Malaya | Sorry, I didn't take it well because I'm pissed about what the company did. I spend much of my day listening on Spotify, so it's pretty personal. Nope. Kakao M handles the distribution of some, if not all of the songs of the artists I listed. So Kakao M took down their songs on Spotify. The singers are all from different companies, from Blockberry Creative, Source Music, Cube Entertainment, FNC Entertainment, RBW Entertainment, etc. Sicilian imperial-capitalist empire, Drew Durrnil, Viktorias, and The new mexican confederation | |

The Federal Republic of Yahlia | EuroNews - March 2021 - Issue XXV EuroNews surpasses another milestone with this 25th issue and we are eager to show you this fine collection of articles our staff was able to compose for you! So, what are you waiting for? It’s EuroNews time! Dear Yahlia, Yahlia, former Chief Editor of EuroNews A lot of us probably know you for your long-awaited catch-up posts, others for your amazing flags, and some of the oldest for your Commissionership. In our opinion, your true legacy is EuroNews, a project you resurrected and directed for two years. In the last months, you had, for personal reasons, to withdraw from many of your duties in Europe including, amongst them, from EuroNews. We cannot promise we’ll be able to keep it alive forever, but we will nonetheless try our best to keep up with the quality and the seriousness you embed in it and that now are our trademarks. We want to thank you for the awesome time we had during your leadership, for the amazing experiences you allowed us to have, and for the patience you had dealing with us (especially for the delays :3). This issue is dedicated to you, we hope you will like it. Written with sincerity and love by the whole EuroNews staff European Events The flag of St Scarlett who won the election Commissioner Competition Like last month, but for some aspects even more, this election reserved us some surprises, starting with the unexpected declaration of candidacy of St Scarlett for the post. The other candidates were Libertandonien, Sicilian imperial-capitalist empire (from now on SICE for short), and Walfo. The fight was fierce and, at first, the results were not given for sure. Furthermore, differently from last time, all candidates took part in the Official Electoral Debate and a commentary of the election, specifically on the profiles and positions of the candidates, was made by Novgorod-Pskov through the Novgorodian Druzhýna. The platform for the election of Libertandonien was rather simple: as stated in his electoral dispatch his main points were being “someone new” and experienced with the RMB. This rather simplistic take on the election was welcomed with a mix of surprise and, coupled with the low-profile approach undertaken by Libertandonien during the debate, distrust by many. The proposals of SICE, mainly expressed in the Electoral Debate since he did not release a dispatch nor a telegram, were about a change in the enforcement of laws rather than an amendment of the statutes. Bringing forward a platform based on moderation, SICE, who was also strengthened by his performance during the debate, was considered the stronger candidate, prior to the candidacy of St Scarlett. St Scarlett’s campaign, which was expressed in her electoral telegram and in the Electoral Debate, revolved around a change in her position on justice from a ‘lenient stance’ to a ‘moderately punitive stance’ reflecting, as she herself said, the will of the people. As further motives for her re-election, Scarlett brought up her greater experience and some ideas regarding a way to “better represent the RMB’s rules on the World Factbook Entry” and to develop “more detailed definitions of terms to the legislation”. Walfo’s platform, in contrast, aimed at a huge renovation of the Moderation Committee and the expansion of officials in the Home Office to better deal with spammers and other troublemakers. Another point advanced, that sparked some resistance by the other candidates, was regarding endorsement and their value for the region as well as the rework of our recruitment policy. Probably the most controversial candidate, Walfo still represented the biggest threat to both SICE and St Scarlett and the most outspoken of the candidates. As soon as the election started, St Scarlett and SICE jumped ahead of the others and ended the first day of the election with 24 votes each, again sparking a discussion on whether this election would end in a tie or not. Yet, on the second day, thanks to the campaign telegram wired both by St Scarlett and Walfo, this tie was broken and St Scarlett fled away from the rest of the candidates, while the Walfo and SICE, who did not release a telegram, just saw a small increase in their vote. Unlike the previous election, each candidate ran on his own thus prompting St Scarlett, who increased the gap from the others day after day, to end the election with the relative majority of 48% of the votes but still enough to win her 9th election. Election results: Total votes cast: 107 Written by Regnum Italiae Roleplay Report Another month, another month… of ideas! Let’s see what the wonderful minds of the Europeans crafted regarding their worlds and nations. United engiresco released a new issue of his national newspaper! On the front page, news on geopolitics regarding China nonetheless. In the last few days, NorthPortugal released a bunch of awesome factbooks. Among the most interesting, the one on the national leadership is surely worth mentioning. Here it is! After some time, St Scarlett released another factbook on her nation lore. This time, we can admire Kryss, the religious capital and one of the main cities of this northern nation. As always, remember to keep an eye out for the works of others as well as to share yours! Europe is always a workshop of amazing stories! Written by Regnum Italiae Scarlett’s Favourite Flag of the Month If you know me, you know I love flags! So, I’ve created a new segment for EuroNews to replace the awards (for now), where I’ll be picking out my favourite flag from our region this month and give it a quick review. If you want your own personalised review, be sure to telegram Einswenn for an EFES-approved flag rating. This month's winner is... New skandenivia! This flag is an interesting one and seems to reflect that of Greenland somewhat, which is fitting for a Scandinavia-based nation. I love the colours for this one, pink and white look great together and super cute, and I have used them myself on the flag of Cloudyfloss. The symbol is more unique than Greenland's since on top of using the two main colours switched around it has extra details such as the inner semi-circles and the vertical line, also playing around with the colours. The shade of pink could perhaps be a little different to provide more contrast from the white but besides that, I have little criticism for this flag and it is a beautiful piece of art. Written by St Scarlett NationStates News Embassy Raid and Liberation The Embassy was established in 2015 aiming to be the largest connector of diversity amongst regions through a single point. For over five years, they built almost 5000 embassies, with more than one in five of all regions represented.. That dream continued even after the founder had ceased to exist two years ago. But on 31 January, The ambassadors reception ceased to exist. Only one nation, A Goblinoid Merchant, resided in the Embassy by 8 February. Then it all came down. After the password was apparently leaked, a joint force comprising Lily, Lone Wolves United, the Black Hawks, and many others invaded. During the occupation, the raiders ‘tagged’ the region, and undid all the work put into building the embassies. Nations from all over NS called for raiders to leave the region and cancel the closures. Five days after the raid, a liberation was passed in the Security Council. The resolution itself did not end the raid, but instead dismantled the regional password and allowed defenders to come in to kick the raiders out from the region. After five days of occupation, the Embassy was free at last, but the damage has been done. But the spirit still lives on, and they are already on the way to recovery. Hundreds of embassies have re-opened by 2 March, and the number is going to grow! But what is tagging anyway? If you have ventured across the regions of NS, you might have come across a region with a Lily or TBH advert. This practice is called tagging, where raiders alter the flag and world factbook entries, close embassies, and add the victim region to their collection. This is a type of raiding, which means taking other regions. The reverse is called ‘defending’ which frees and saves regions from raiders. They are collectively called ‘Military Gameplay’ or R&D. R&D works when large amounts of WA nations move to a region and endorse each other during what’s known as an ‘Update’ which, relevant to this, elect a new delegate. Once elected delegate (through endorsements), the raider or defender has the authority to change the region. Usually, the appearance and embassies are altered. In the Embassy, the raider forces established a delegate, damaged the region, and held on until defender armies came in and ejected the raiders, before handing the delegacy to a native nation. Is Europe Safe from Raids? Yes. First of all, the founder can easily reverse any raid that happened to their region. Secondly, overtaking Imperium Anglorum in endorsements would require at least over 360 nations participating, which is practically impossible. That does not mean disruptions cannot though. Raiders can and have temporarily removed IA from the delegacy, installing other old, trusted, unwilling European nations as the delegate. This can end soon as Europeans unendorsed the new delegate. But still, regions like Europe are safe from tag raids. Participating in defender militaries can also help save other regions too. Written by Apabeossie IRL Info The UEFA Champions League knockout phase has started European football is back in action and the month of February featured the first leg of the Round of 16 knockout round in the Champions League. PSG crushed Barcelona 4-1 with a hat trick from Mbappe, Liverpool got a 2-0 win over Leipzig in Budapest due to travel restrictions, Juventus heavily underperformed in a 2-1 loss to Porto, Dortmund beat Sevilla 3-2 in a thriller, Chelsea edged out Atletico with a stunning goal by Giroud, Bayern demolished Lazio 4-1, Real Madrid struggled to beat an Atalanta team with ten men, and Man City eased past Monchengladbach 2-0. The second legs of all the matchups await in the middle of March. Elsewhere, the Europa League is going on with the Round of 32 wrapped up. Highlights include Arsenal struggling to beat Benfica and Man United soundly beating Real Sociedad over both legs. While City has been dominant in the Prem, the race for Europe heats up. It is still anybody’s game to secure the other qualifying spots, though Man United and Leicester have a cushion over West Ham, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham, and many other aspiring teams. The French Ligue 1 has been surprisingly competitive with Lille holding a two-point lead over PSG at the moment. Serie A is also competitive with Inter and Milan gunning for the title with perennial title-winners Juventus underperforming in 3rd. Atletico holds their grip on La Liga with Real Madrid and Barcelona trying to catch up. In the Bundesliga, Bayern still holds the top spot with Red Bull’s Leipzig trying to deny them top spot. We await to see any further developments in the big leagues. The Club World Cup has predictably been won by reigning European champions Bayern who beat Mexican club Tigres 1-0. Although the CWC is not viewed in high regard in Europe, South American and North American teams relish the challenge of playing the top team in Europe and potentially winning the trophy. Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker has received the tragic news of his father passing away after drowning in a lake. The footballing world paid tributes to the Becker family and offered condolences to the goalkeeper. Alisson is having a tough year with a recent rough patch in February and now has to deal with his father’s death. For that reason, he was left out of the lineup against Sheffield United and backup Adrian took over starting duties. World-famous golfer Tiger Woods is in recovery after being involved in a violent car crash that left his leg badly damaged. He had to undergo surgery as part of the recovery process. Thankfully, he is doing well in the hospital and appears to be on the road to full recovery. The NTSB released the final report on the 2020 Calabasas helicopter crash that killed legendary basketball icon Kobe Bryant. The probable cause was that the pilot of the helicopter became disoriented while flying under visual flight rules. Weather conditions were poor at the time and the helicopter soon crashed into the hills. Bryant was taking his 13-year-old daughter Gianna to a basketball game at Mamba Sports Academy. Written by Outer Sparta Titillating Trivia Hello and welcome to this issue’s National Trivia section! This month we are covering Serbia, a small country in the Balkans that does not get attention that often; the South American and sometimes Caribbean nation of Guyana; and Timor-Leste, a small country often overlooked on the border of Indonesia. Serbia Guyana Guyana is the location of the jungle where, according to some journals in Pokémon Red and Green, Mew was discovered. Timor-Leste or East Timor has had a rough experience in the world, like with other Portuguese Colonies, independence was granted very late in the 20th century, in 1975, and after finally gaining independence just one year later it found itself colonised by Indonesia. It was not until 2002 that the nation finally gained full independence, though this did have the fun side effect of making Timor-Leste the first new country of the 21st century. The tiny nation has two other unique characteristics not matched by many others in the continent. The first is its religious make-up; it, along with the Philippines is one of only two majority Christian nations in all of South-East Asia and one of only six in the continent of Asia as a whole (alongside Armenia, Cyprus, Georgia, Philippines, and Russia too if you include it in Asia). The second is its position in the world, being the only nation in all of Asia to be located entirely in the Southern Hemisphere.
