WANTED FUGITIVES of EUROPA About fugitives Fugitives pose a serious threat to public safety worldwide. They are mobile and opportunistic; they frequently finance their continued flight from the law through further criminal activities, which may result in criminal charges in more than one country. Fugitives also undermine the world's criminal justice systems. They may have been charged with a violation of the law but not been arrested. They may have been released on bail and then fled to avoid prosecution or, perhaps they have escaped from prison. When fugitives flee, cases are not adjudicated, convicted criminals fail to meet …

Prologue Wednesday, 6 July 1555 From the collected letters from Lysian geographer Gérard Le Marchant (1492-1574). A letter to his friend Yohanisi Keni (1507-1588). Mercredi, le sixième jour de Juillet, dans l'an de nostre Seigneur, 1555 Mon cher ami Jehan, It is with the greatest excitement that I share with you a most important rediscovery. During my most recent visit to one of the most ancient libraries in our beloved Occident, I came across a document that claimed to hold an as of yet unknown discovery by the classical philosopher and polymath Proximander. This document encloses various mathematical calcu…

The fanfare for the launch of the UNS Revelation has been enormous. Though she had set out from her home port in Norfolk and had made a celebratory stop in Selbourne, the biggest gathering had been in the North Adlantic Union capital of Lewisport, located in the Ceriser nation of Cenia. Though the ship was dwarfed by the large city, which had only grown larger after becoming the NAU capital, few could contain their shock on just how large this science vessel was. She had a length of 168 meters, longer than Seylos's own ubiquitous Eclipse-Class destroyers, and displaced the same amount of tonnage without being packed to the brim with military equipment and weapons. Crowds …

A fresh wind - 1 Scene 1, Confederate States of Florentia, Montcharmin, Confederal Senate 08/07/2023, 15h21 The front of the Confederal Senate. With the war over, Hugo Lysandre "Lys" Dellague can finally get his draft constitution approved. Although the plan is still to put the new constitution to the vote in a referendum, the Senate still has to be informed about the plan, whether they agree or not, just to be polite. Although the entire building is known as the Confederal Senate, it occupies only a small part of it. In fact, the building is also used to house the entire Confederal government. The Senate occupies just one small room. Richly…

The country of Orioni braces itself for a critical turning point in its history. This December, the Orinese will head to the polls in an election whose outcome is as uncertain as it is significant. It's a contest that could define the trajectory of the nation in the face of economic challenges and the ongoing Anglian crisis. Meet the contenders Five major parties are vying for the electorate's favour: the centre-left SPO, the centrist Blueropa, the smaller yet persistent centre-left Pink!, the centre-right PO&N, and the far-right Fronde Verdur. These parties, each with distinct ideologies and policy agendas, are leaving no stone unturned as they aim to…

As Droungariokomissa (Commodore) Sofia Ooryfaina looked the bay and the town of Basilikolimanion that was nestled around it, there were several things that struck her. The first was that was a good, sheltered anchorage for ships, and the concrete wharves that jutted into the bay would make the unloading of equipment easier. So long as they were still in good condition, although they likely wouldn't have been used intensively for decades. They could well be corroded and weakened by years of being battered by the elements and unable to take much heavy equipment moved across them. The second was that the large cathedral and equally large palace were incongruous ami…

14th January 2000, Bastaria, Velaheria. It was a cold day, on the streets of bastaria, one could see the banners of the velaherian glory and might, with heroic depictions of the communist government and its achievements, which had made velaheria what it was that day, people could breathe and feel free that they werent enslaved by the dolch or were subject to the rules of the monarchic pests, like the ones in stedoria, or had to endure hardships like those experienced by the people under the capitalist states, like @Delamaria and @Walneria. People had access to education and free housing, and could admire their glorious leaders, whom belonged to the starinburg dynas…

26/06/2023 Anya burst into Nadia's private study, her face red with anger and hurt. Nadia, seated behind her desk, looked up, surprised by Anya's sudden entrance. Anya: (angrily) "What the hell, Nadia? How could you take away my damn title just because I married Ketriaz?" Nadia: (rising from her seat) "Whoa, Anya, calm down! It's not like I did this to ruin your life. There are reasons behind it, you know." Anya: (voice trembling) "Reasons? More like political bullshit! You're choosing politics over our sisterhood, Nadia!" Nadia: (firmly) "It's not about politics, Anya. It's about the safety and stability of our country. You know the tensio…

Byalŭk, Vjoldinist Republic of Doria Tuesday, 10 October 2023 “President Gospodinov, are you going to run for a third term?” His secretary, Kiril Kostov, asked the president. Borislav Gispodinov is the President of Doria. For the past ten years, he's been a prominent figure in Doria's political landscape, leading the nation through many challenges and changes. But Borislav had already made up his mind, “I don’t think I will. I've done what I wanted to and fixed the education system and the rail network. I believe it’s time for me to step away from politics.” Kiril Kostov nodded, understanding the president's decision. “A decade of service has left its mark,…

In the presidential room was Ionio's president, John Colucci, who was reading some documentation while drinking lemonade. As he continued reading he heard the door open and it was the minister of the interior: Matteo Alfano "Dearest Matthew. How are you. Did you bring any new news?" "I have good news where do we start?" "You choose" The president filled his glass with lemonade and began to listen to the minister of the interior "Let's start with the discourse that we are constantly updating the database of Ionian citizens. The military is providing us with the names of people who fell during the war and updated the database of fallen civilians. S…

After decades of deforestation and misuse of the lands much of Hodrea had become desolate plains. Farmers for years had tried to tame these hot empty lands, but after the loss of so much of the natural vegetation no amount of irrigation and could save the old farmlands that weren't already close to a river. The land had been dying for years, and food imports had been keeping Hodrea alive. With the rise and fall of the Sentists however any semblance of organized farming had almost completely collapsed. Millions had died in the struggle, and this had left thousands of farms without their farmers. Almost as bad though were the desolate cities. A dozen major cities had been h…

Spring was finally coming to Gournaion, the capital of the island of Efmoseia and the nation of the Hexanisa. It had been a hard winter across all of northern Europa and even the western countries of Machina @Haruspex and Tagmatium had suffered in the coldest weather in decades. Despite being the two most functional nations in either the Occident or Burania, many of their citizens had died in the cold weather and parts of them had been cut off due to the deep snow and blizzards. In the band of six large islands and innumerable smaller ones that marked the division of the Thalassa ton Kataigidon (Sea of Storms) and the waters of inner Europa, the weather had been especiall…

Yaris Naval Officer's Residence Compound Home and Office of Rear Admiral Makis Ao'Hallas Imperial Naval Command General Staff Senior Officer The horned rim glasses were pulled free for a moment from the grumpy rear admiral, so he could gingerly blink away the droll boredom that came from bureaucracy meetings and all that had just happened. An uneasy sigh escaped thin lips, and then he noted the one aide standing very stiffly, having observed all of this. Tala, I do believe our empress plans to give me a heart attack. Tala for her part, only smirked, however green eyes wandered over the minister, just to make sure. Knowing her Minister, she proba…

Pentium, North of Whedon's Row. "Archon?" Lordscar Bracken questioned, waiting for the response from his commanding officer. "One moment.. Bracken. I'm just finishing inventory.." Aisling continued to mark down the full line of equipment from the replenished armory, intent to make full use of the vast trove of funding made recently available to the Army. "We have to do this right after all." "I understand Archon, but this is the fourth time you've been down here to work on this. What are you trying to find?" Bracken noted, not entirely sure of what her new assignment had been since the new procurement requests had been established. "I wa…

Excerpt from Kacherun Documentary The room was relatively dark, owing to the dim lighting of the recording area. Vague outlines of concert posters and graffiti made up the wall decor, obscured by a bright light spotlighting the center room. On a couch sat four adults, approximately around their mid-to-late-thirties, looking at a younger interviewer across from them. They looked to be in their upper twenties. One of the members wore a leather jacket with scattered piercings, while the rest wore T-shirts etc. The interviewer began speaking: “So your band did not begin as Weird Clanging, correct?” One member, Seok, shifted around for a moment before ans…

Northern Cunetio Haru Embassy Newly appointed ambassador to the North Korninon Protectorate (NKP for future reference), Sengar d'isto (Noble rank, equivalent of Major) Fasri'Nu Hallas stood upon the balcony of the suite, and looked over the construction of a more permanent border wall and the city on both sides. The banners of the Imperium draped across the front of the building, and upon flag poles alongside that of the NKP fluttering in the wind. A slow exhale of a reddish smoke, slow lean against one arm as he settled against a banister for a moment. From his perch, he could see the newly made government offices of the nationalist party, a joint garrison an…

In the remote mountains of Pecario, a group of La Vanguardia soldiers, dressed in their dark uniforms, stand at a well-hidden road checkpoint. They carefully watch every passing vehicle, ready to act at the slightest sign of danger. The sun is shining high in the sky, but the atmosphere is tense, as they have received information about a possible Santa Polvo convoy. Suddenly, an engine noise is heard in the distance. A truck approaches, kicking up a cloud of dust on the bumpy road. La Vanguardia soldiers prepare to intercept the vehicle. The truck is old and dilapidated, but it is solidly built, as if ready to withstand any test. The driver of the truck stops in fron…

"Good evening, my name is Johnathan Blythe for Pentium News Agency, this is a special broadcast directly from the office of the president. During the closing hours of the siege last night, the forces loyal to the president and our democracy held back the tide of advancing Private Military Contractors who've assaulted our cities and slaughtered our people. In a defensive action not seen since the great invasions of old, our military forces and civilian volunteers have held back an overwhelming force, against the full might of whatever they could throw at us. A victory, given to us through sacrifice and toil, and brought upon us by the ambitions of only a few representat…
