The councils have once again been called to meet, and Talula the grand matriarch is not pleased. the citizenry has clamored and fussed for expansion.... the peninsula to the north was colonised against her wishes and now the people have started to settle to the lands south of Attu island as well. d'Guy, after getting no response from his marrige proposal returned to Dexterdelphia, confused and bewilidered by the war news he was subject to, caused the citizens of dexterdelphia to panic. At his local council meeting d'Guy adressed his council. "Dexterdephians, it is with great pride that i address you today... not as a dexterdeplhian, but as a labrynthian. For too long have we been ignored ... for too long have we been taken for granted... enslaved... ignored..... Today, with the blessing of Talula we incorporate the settlements to the south into our great nation, and put aside our isolationism and fear of others.... for after seeing labrynth far and wide, i can assure you we are a great people, a people undeserving of negligence... a people that should have great pride..." His speech would be spoken word for word by him at all the higher councils until he in front of the grand council itself..." Talula is unexcited and unmoved, but the rest of the council has his undivided attention and appreciation. Talula knows she is nothing against the rest of the council and declines to speak her mind. With the new (albeit small) navy and the accusition of the channel to the south the councils send telegrams to all the nations in labrynth announcing the enforcement of a sound toll through either of the straights between the island and the continents...

The rolling waves off Bonvolkia's coast, a beautiful, yet dangerous thing. Bonvolkia has tried, for many years, to tame them. And at last the Bonvolkian Royal Navy has done so.
Looking out from the coastal fort, Prince Dimitrius smiled. Within his sight he saw three of Bonvolkia's newest battleships. Their sides were painted in red, and their cannons proudly protruded out.
Even though Bonvolkia has never been at war with another nation, it's Navy still grows. When at first the nation had a feeble navy of 50 destroyers, but now the navy almost had 1115 ships of almost every class.
"My highness?"
Prince Dimitrius frowned, everyone knew not to disturb him.
"What Klaus" He growled.
"A couple of Memer diplomats are complaining about your constant naval exercises. They say you are threatening their coasts."
"Does it look like I give a damn? This is Bonvolkia's Royal Navy, and it will do as it pleases."
"What would your father say?"
Dimitrius chuckled, "My father has been quite seriously ill for the past month, I heavily doubt that he could stop me."
Dimitrius leaned against the railing, the naval medals glowing in the sun. They looked kind of odd on his gray uniform, but his pride remained. Soon Bonvolkia will flex it's muscles. Soon.

He was just a rookie trooper and he surely shook with fright. He checked off his equipment and made sure his pack was tight. He had to sit and listen to those awful engines roar. You ain't gonna jump no more.
Chorus: Gory, gory, what a hell of way to die. Gory, gory, what a hell of way to die. Gory, gory, what a hell of way to die. He ain't gonna jump no more.
"Is everybody happy?" cried the sergeant looking up. Our hero feebly answered, "Yes", and then they stood him up. He jumped into the icy blast, his static line unhooked. And he ain't gonna jump no more.
He counted long, he counted loud, he waited for the shock. He felt the wind, he felt the cold, he felt the awful drop. The silk from his reserve spilled out and wrapped around his legs. And he ain't gonna jump no more.
The risers swung around his neck, connectors cracked his dome. Suspension lines were tied in knots around his skinny bones. The canopy became his shroud, he hurtled to the ground. And he ain't gonna jump no more.
The days he lived and loved and laughed kept running through his mind. He thought about the girl back home, the one he left behind. He thought about the medicos and wondered what they'd find. And he ain't gonna jump no more.
The ambulance was on the spot, the jeeps were running wild. The medics jumped and screamed with glee, rolled up their sleeves and smiled. For it had been a week or more since last a 'chute had failed. And he ain't gonna jump no more.
He hit the ground, the sound was "Splat," his blood went spurting high. His comrades they were heard to say, "A helluva way to die." He lay there rolling 'round in the welter of his gore. And he ain't gonna jump no more.
There was blood upon the risers, there were brains upon the 'chute. Intestines were a-dangling from his paratrooper suit. He was a mess, they picked him up and poured him from his boots. And he ain't gonna jump no more.

'Aight, so:
Ideology: Basic capitalist with bartering being just as, if not more, viable a payment as money.
Goal: Preservation of their culture via isolationism. If they win, they're unlikely to form a single nation, as some provinces have historically been at odds with each other.
Culture: Heavy Celtic vibes. Honor-based warrior culture. Everyone in the village is like family and is to be treated as such. Polytheistic with reverence for the spirits of their ancestors. Mountain Vikings in an apt description.

Politics
With up and coming election the GGAE will elect a new President and cabinet of the Reichstag and it will be a the first time that the provinces of Austria will be able to vote in a federal election. The three main candidates are the incumbent Paul Von Hindenburg the next candidate is for the libertarians Frederick Von moltke and the final one is for the Christian Republican Party and their candidate is Otto von Habsburg. Current poles Hindenburg:34% Moltke: 25% Otto von Habsburg: 41%
Economic
The GGAE economy is experiencing a lot of growth do to even more industrialization and a lot of men returning to the workforce. The current companies that are rising tremendously is spradling's oil and coal and Mauser which secure a weapon contract with the government to invent a more reliable sidearm then the current 6 shooter which suffers from accuracy problems. There are some companies that are recovering like Krupp steel which is returning back to normal after the end of the blockade.
Foreign affairs
The Kaiser is expected to visit several Nations including Bonvolkia ,Embilic, Unatseliis ,and Revolussia to repair relations and visit old friends.
oh hi everyone... sorry have not been as active as usual. As I said on discord, my mental health is deteriorating, and have not been able to be as active as I usually am. I am sorry about this.
Civil war Rp- In the outerlands the tension between the various trading houses is high and many have talked about leaving from the union of houses know as the outerlands. the situation in the house of the people is heating up as many are accusing each other for various things and crimes. The nations most largest trading house the Fireswords are discussing leaving and starting their own nation. the people in the cities throughout the nation are rioting due to the focus on this topic rather than the new event of a food shortage and people are posted outside of the capital demanding answers but no one is around to listen.
Revolussia
Right, I have a few good ideas. I'll see what I whip up.
