Official Statement From The Brazilian Ministry of Foreign Affairs on The Middle East
_{Ministério das Relações Exteriores | JUNE 2024}

| Following the collapse of La Plata and the dissolution of Brazil's southern neighbor, the Bolsonaro Administration has grown bolder. With Brazilian hegemony in Latin America essentially secured, Brasília can now look outward and project its ever growing military, economic, and political might. The current regions of interest for the introduction of Brazilian soft power are the Middle East and Africa. Both regions are capable of new developments which could be lucrative in the future, as most developing economies are. However, there is a downside. The recent conflicts in the Middle East and Africa have been troublesome and worrying. With the fall of the Empire of Iran, the evasion of Oman, the partitioning of Yemen, and now the war in Uganda, The Bolsonaro Administration looks to both forge relations with the Saudi Kingdom (Alzarikstan), The galla, Turkey (Abessinienreich), Sudan (Nileia) among others, while being non partial between all nations at the same time and reiterating Brazil's desire for regional peace. |

| As for right now, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has issued sweeping condemnations to both Alzarikstan and The galla for their recent invasions of sovereign states. Although not necessarily meaningful in any way, the condemnations both serve as a symbolic representation of Brazil's desire to expand its influence in the region, and also project its status as an emerging power that values an international peace and mutual cooperation between nations. It is the hope of President Jair Messias Bolsonaro that the Middle East return to some level of internal stability. Meanwhile, regardless of the current state of war between The galla and Nileia, Brazil has informed both nations that diplomatic channels will continue. However, The galla has been respectfully warned to avoid a broadening of the conflict or expanding it in any way beyond the current situation. Brazil trusts that cool heads will prevail in Addis Ababa and the war will end sooner rather than later. |

| On behalf of the Federative Republic of Brazil, President Jair Messias Bolsonaro invites President Emmanuel Macron of France (Metropolitan Francais) to Brasília for a summit to discuss recent events in the Middle East, South America, and an expansion of Brazilian-French ties. |

EMPIRE RISING
THE GALLAN EMPIRE PREPARES FOR CONFLICT ACROSS MULTIPLE FRONTS...

JANUARY-MAY 2024

The military coup in Uganda raised alarms all throughout the Empire, partially due to the worry over Sudanese meddling in the affair. Gallan military planners have long held that Uganda, known locally as Gandia, would fall under Imperial Occupation sooner or later. Prominent Kenyan citizens, many with seats on the Grand Council, have been especially keen on a takeover for economic reasons — as the Gallan economy is the brainchild of Kenyan data scientists, they want to test just how well this experimental economy can perform in newly annexed territories. They theorized that the integration of Gandia would've been swift, using digital resources to further spread the usability of the E-Vitissi, the Imperial currency. The ambitions of the military planners and the scientists were utterly dashed when in early 2024, a revolution broke out in Gandia. Sudanese politicians had visited the country, further confirming that the Galla's neighbor had intention to intervene.

By early April, major announcements were made Empire-wide. The breadth of the Gallan economy would be ordered to shift to a war economy, maximizing the domestic production of weapons, while new weapons were acquired from allies. During this time, a helicopter cruiser was acquired from France, as well as some Russian missiles and planes. While state organs took over private production, reserves were to be called up and trained. Sudan's military occupation of Uganda only further accelerated the rate at which The Empire had to get things done. Mekdella had hoped that she would have more time to plan, but time was not on her side. The Imperial Armed Forces were coming to reach full operational capacity. Twin operations, PHOBOS and DEIMOS were drafted, reviewed, and approved by the Imperial Military....

OPERATION PHOBOS — ON THE HEELS OF THE SAUDI INVASION OF OMAN
THE GULF OF HYDRIMIA
11 JUNE 2024 - 1:00AM LOCAL TIME

An Imperial Naval Task force, which had assembled in Somalia near Mogadishu, was now in the Gulf of Hydrimia. On their way north, they had stopped to load troops and vehicles onto multiple landing crafts, which had assembled near Berbera. The force consists of...

• IGV Mekdella — Helicopter Cruiser, carrying 8x AdE 25 Gunships.

• 4x Tekela Class Frigates.

• 19x Utility Landing Craft carrying troops and vehicles.

• 3x Atiki Missile Cruisers.

• 4x Wayeri Destroyers.

• 3x Buyan M-class corvettes

Their destination is Aden, Yemen. Braving the seas of Hydrimia, the task force lurched north to their destination. However, the naval force paled in comparison to the gargantuan aerial portion of the Operation. From air bases along the Erythrean Coast, all the way to the Imperial Core, hundreds of aircraft took to the skies. Flying above the task force, the Imperial Air Force, renowned for its tenacity in the Unification War 10 years prior, crosses the Bab-al-Mandeb. The force splits into two. Veering off to the north, a special detachment of elite paratroopers from the 2nd Parachute Regiment will be deployed to the Ramayah Governorate, 60 miles from Sana'a. This region is known to Gallans as Felitia.

4x AdE Tsega Large Transports, accompanied by 10x AdE Multirole Fighters, drop 1080 troops into the province in the dead of night, where they will coordinate forward reconnaissance and harassment of Houthi elements in the mountainous region. Their mission is ultimately to gauge the capabilities of the Islamic fighters, which will be used to plan for the offensive into the mountains. Although they are dropped with some handheld anti-tank and anti-plane weapons, they have no armor of their own and will have to be supported solely thru air units.

The main air force speeds off towards Aden and Al-Mukalla, which will be used as staging areas for the initial invasion.
30x AdE Tsega Large Transports will be dropping 8,100 troops in the outskirts of Aden, to be synchronized with the time of the naval landings on the beaches and ports of Aden. They are supported by a flight of 60x AdE Multirole Fighters and 30x AdE 25 Ground/Sea Attack planes. Known Yemeni Air Bases all throughout the south will be bombed during this initial run, to soften up defenses and ensure total Gallan air superiority in this crucial moment. A lone Transport will be offloaded 270 troops, tasked with neutralizing the Yemeni military at Aden Airport. The goal is to have the airport taken by noon, so a constant stream of transports can land to deploy heavy vehicles by the hundreds.

This stage of the operation relies heavily on timing, for a shock and awe factor that will stun the world. By daybreak, there are up to 10,000 troops actively deployed in Yemen, having engaged in skirmishes with Yemeni govt. forces over control of airfields. Landing crafts were going back and forth between Aden and Corrimia to offload and pick up more troops and supplies. News frantically spread that some foreign military had been spotted in Yemen. Could it be Saudi troops, conducting a dual invasion of Oman and Yemen? Speculation flew wild in the early morning as everyone scrambled to understand what was going on. Thankfully for everyone watching, The Empire had already thought of way to make everything clear for the Yemenis, and for the international community.

PORT OF ADEN, YEMEN
8:00AM LOCAL TIME

Ships had been at port for a few hours now, offloading troops, supplies, and smaller vehicles. There was a break in the monotony of war machines, though. A camera crew emerges from one of the ships now at port. After them, a little band. Finally, emerging from a little boat, it is MERI Mekdella herself! Wearing her classic white military field jacket, adorned with medals and honors, flashy white jodhpurs and knee high black boots, the band starts to play a triumphant tune. The long, luscious curls of her afro flow gently in the wind. The morning reflects vibrantly off a pair of goggles hung around her neck. Not only has the Empire confirmed its invasion of Yemen, the images of MERI Mekdella in Aden DURING the invasion are being broadcast live, worldwide. She is flanked by her Keepers, and an Astroculture High Priest. Everything about the event screams good PR. She addresses the camera crew, speaking to the world as the roar of fighter jets and distant sporadic gunfire can be heard.

| _{MEKDELLA BREHEN, MERI of THE GALLA} | "It has been two millennia since a Gallan stood on this peninsula in this way. We are not here to visit, there is no going back. What you see around is the start of the new order... on this peninsula, and around the world. I come here to negotiate the capitulation of the Yemeni government, and begin the war to unify Felitia, Sabia, and Hydrimaut with the Gallan Empire. We have step foot in Aden now, and soon we shall arrive at the gates of Sana'a." |

The Houthi Govt. in the north immediately declared war on the Gallans. In the south, the Empire will be getting itself situated, first by capitulating the Yemeni govt. With nowhere to go, Yemeni politicans were stuck in Aden and at the mercy of the Gallans. On that same day, through some strong-arm negotiating, the govt. fell to the sway of the Gallan Empire. Although a good start, the Empire has to negotiate with dozens of tribes in the deserts. With some locals, such as the Houthis and other Islamic groups, there is simply no negotiating. But for the first day, things are not going so bad.

That's day 1 of Operation Phobos in Yemen. Thousands of miles away, along the Galla-Uganda Border, Operation Deimos has kicked off...
(but I'll type that one up later)

First Test to Saudi Peninsular Hegemony: The New Global Hotspot Sparks in Yemen

_{Neom Palace, Tabuk Province, Kingdom of Alzarikstan
Red Sea}

Southern Peninsular invasion by the Galla. This invasion was a shock but let alone it was an expected one. The tensions between Riyadh and Addis Ababa grew exponentially over the course of a year as this movement for Astroculture, comprising Anti-Islam and Anti-Arab sentiments, seized the sources of power in Addis Ababa. The arrival of the Gallans would be brought to the full attention of King Talal al-Saud during his stay at his Neom Palace. Sitting in an armchair beneath a marble and gold pavilion overlooking the Red Sea, King Talal seemed unbothered by this fact. Walking with some purpose, Minister of Defense & Foreign Affairs Nasser al-Khalifa al-Saud would approach the King but with respect and grace.

Minister of Defense & Foreign Affairs Nasser al-Khalifa al-Saud:

_{"Your Highness. I wanted to be sure to bring to your attention this invasion of Yemen by the Galla. Granted that we have succeeded in Oman, this is a direct threat to the new position we have found ourselves in the Peninsula to project our power and grow our legitimacy. We need to do something before the Galla solidifies their posi-"}

King Talal al-Saud:

_{"Prince Nasser, yes I do know about this invasion and it is one to be expected. It was part of the Gallan posture in the region all along. You are correct that we need to do something about this to ensure that Galla is not able to solidify all of Yemen. There are approximately 3,000 Christians left in Yemen and the vast majority are Muslim Arabs. Just as in Oman, we have to stay in control of the strategic and tactical situation. The situation is this: Northern Yemen is ripe for the taking...but we have to incite the Yemeni people to operate as a buffer but also a force multiplier to push the Gallans out and away. The goal is isolation and containment."}

Minister of Defense & Foreign Affairs Nasser al-Khalifa al-Saud:

_{"What do you propose we begin doing?"}

King Talal al-Saud:

_{"Make contact with the Houthis and inform them that Saudi Arabia is ready and willing to provide funds and weapons to their cause. If need be, I will authorize the deployment of the National Guard covertly to bolster the Houthi positions in Northern Yemen and expand our presence to the capital Sana'a. Meet with the General of the Air Force and devise a potential plan regarding precision airstrikes on Gallan positions...we may have completed one war in Yemen but we must be ready to partake in a prolonged one in Yemen. The people are on our side. Allah is on our wide. And with both, Saudi shall surely ensure victory once more."}

With a nod, Prince Nasser al-Khalifa al-Saud would give a bow and proceed back to the Neom Palace, where he would provide the orders to make contact with the Houthis in Northern Yemen while also coordinating with the General of the Air Force for the planning of a bloody nose campaign to the Gallans in Southern Yemen. Covertly, Prince Nasser would also motion for 1 S-400 battery and 1 S-300 battery to be placed in Jazan province, which borders Northern Yemen and await further orders.

_{Investments in Oman (Alzarikstan)}

_{— THE MINITRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS —}

In the Middle East, Japan's strategic allies are Iran and mainly Saudi Arabia, knowing that the Saudis are the main supplier of oil to Japan. With this, recently announced by the Ministry of Foreign Relation, that Japan would be interested in investing in Oman at the request of Riyadh, which would be a chance for Tokyo to strengthen relations with its ally and Arab partner. Tokyo announced a new investment value in Oman that will be ($ 15.1 Billion DOLLARS), also confirmed that automotive and technology companies are interested in establishing their headquarters and factories in Muscat, Oman, to help in the development of the automotive and technological sector.

𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝚁𝙾𝚈𝙰𝙻𝚂 — THE IMPERIAL HOUSE DOES NOT ALLOW A CHILD OF A JAPANESE PRINCESS WITH A PRINCE OF OTHER DYSNASTY TO BE PART OF THE JAPANESE IMPERIAL FAMILY

^{Reiwa 6 ― June 17, 2024}

| TOKYO IMPERIAL PALACE — [...] After Princess Mako's return from North Borneo, after she divorced her husband and took full custody of the child, the Japanese Imperial House is opposed, "This is in fact against the laws of the Imperial House, the Imperial Family will not accept a child from another member of another Dynasty, only members of the Japanese Emperor's direct descendants are allowed in the Imperial Family and this includes Princess Mako being the eldest daughter of the current Crown Prince, Fumihito." Mako then publicly announced that she would send his son to North Borneo to remain in the Imperial Family, respecting the laws of the Imperial House — But there are many questions on social media and the media, "Princess Mako as a divorced woman and not to mention that she had a child [...] does she intend to remarry?" Where even many people replied "Yes, of course" — and Mako is already thinking about a new relationship, the Mr. Kei Komuro, a Japanese commoner — Komuro and Mako met in a fraternization of a study group in a restaurant, around of 12 ago. After completing a week that Mako returned from North Borneo, the two met to talk — Clearly, Mako wants to do anything to forget about her past life with her former husband, but sad that she sent her son to North Borneo. |

THE RESISTANCE - THE OLDEST ENEMY OF THE CORPORATIONS

JUNE 2024

Standing as the sole major resistance towards the Corporations and the Government, a very shaky coalition of all resistance and opposition groups simply coined by some as the "Resistance" whereas the Centroamerican Government uses the term "Subversives". The Resistance and the Government, along with all of the Corporate Militias have been in a form of protracted guerilla war with one another since 1912, before which the resistance forces were more disorganized. Their actions have so far not exceeded raiding corporate convoys (civilian goods and exports) along with skirmishes with Pantera Group (Military Contractor which from 1986 onwards has become the primary means of combatting the Resistance for the Government). Known members of the Resistance and their families are restricted from basically all access to basic goods, medical goods and any form of government assistance.

While from 1991 onwards Sodapan was produced and sold en masse to the public as a replacement to coca cola, however mainly due to its inclusion of synthesized L-DOPA (precurser to Dopamine) it has been used to keep people docile when they consume the product in large quantities. Due to Sodapon being further packed with addictive substances this is the case with most, just as many individuals only drink soda throughout the day in other countries. As a result of this large influx of L-DOPA every day, it was noted that individuals that had continued usage of the substance became not merely more docile but more apathetic in the goings on around them. The Resistance however had no contact with Sodapan and actively avoids it as it is a major corporate product. As a result of this, in comparison to the rest of the Centroamerican population they are extremely aggressive and easily provoked. Sodapan is for the inclusion of such intense Chemicals banned in basically all foreign Nations, as most classify it as a drug rather than as a consumable beverage. Even still Centroamerica must import most of the resources required for its production, which remains profitable and eats up a sizeable portion of any Centroamerican household budget. It is served in schools and in work canteens, and is virtually never missing from any restaurant or shopping center. It is no surprise therefore that Sodapan Incorporated is the largest beverage manufacturer in the Country.

Sodapan Factories suffer from regular intrusions by Resistance cells and squads, forcing them to be heavily defended areas with both corporate militia and military presences to keep the supply steady and safe. Since around 2003, 80% of all Resistance encounters are within a 10 mile radius of either a Sodapan Factory or Residential Facility, which has resulted in Sodapan spending quite a large amount of its profits on protection by the Pantera Group, and it even operates its own Militia complete with four AH-64 Apache Helicopters for close air support.

Historically speaking the Resistance has never achieved much success beyond its own continued survival, but that very survival alone is a testament to how resilient opposition to the Corporations are. No matter how long and how fiercely they have been trying to stamp out the movement, it has never seen much success. Ultimately the Group does suffer greatly because of their intense diversity of opinion. After all, parts of the resistance include communists, liberals, right wing groups (economically strict and regulative) and virtually any group that dislikes the nature of a corporate environment, including certain groups of the Catholic faith within the Nation. In this diverse regard it is not unlike the French underground, however in comparison they spend much less time fighting each other and more time harassing the corporate conglomerates which for over a century have held unquestioned control over the entirety of Central America.

Spanish Air Force continues modernization efforts with helicopter procurement deal with the United States

| While many Spaniards and defense community members alike considered the Spanish military's quick modernization efforts over with the sealing of a $11.2 billion USD deal with France for new fighters and frigates for the air force and navy, their thoughts were once more disrupted with the announcement of a $500 million USD procurement deal with the United States for the purchase of 25 UH60-L Black Hawk utility multipurpose helicopters, 25 AH64-E Apache attack helicopters, and their respective armaments, weaponry, spare parts, and equipment needed to run the new helicopters. The Air Force announced the deal on June 24, surprising many journalists with the sudden procurement. |

| The Air Force stated that the new attack and utility helicopters would support the growing Spanish Armed Forces, following the increase of military personnel from 200,000 troops total to 700,000 troops total, as announced by Madrid earlier in the month. The new procurement will enable Spanish forces more flexibility on the battlefield, allowing them to land small squadrons of troops behind enemy lines, as well as to quickly assault enemy positions with the Apache attack helicopters without having to hold the cost of scrambling a fighter jet. It was also stated that the new helicopters will enable Spanish special forces and regular soldiers to deploy to mountainous and rural areas quickly and more safely, without having to utilize the Air Force's ageing Eurocopter fleet. The new helicopters will not be put to use during the tri-branch military exercises that will take place in early July due to time constraints, but are expected to arrive with the Air Force soon. |

| Although many were certainly surprised by the procurement deal, many were relieved to see the relatively small price tag compared to the massive $11.2 billion deal with the French Republic. Although it will meet resistance in the Cortes Generales, the Spanish military plans to continue her expansion into one of Europe's finest and most powerful militaries considering the country's strategic location at the western end of the Mediterranean Sea. The Spanish government thanks Washington for her continued support for European allies and hopes to work with Paramerica in the near future. |

Although the California Governor’s mandate to ban (the sell of) fossil-fueled vehicles by 2035 was still a decade away, There had been a vocal yet unofficial mandate among its employees by the middle of the 2020s, one would be hard-pressed to find a non-electric vehicle, an E.V. — belonging to a staffer at Google, or Apple, or even here. |

And the sheer irony at times, how new technology tended to battle its old established monoliths, like the Big Thumbs-Up — that had become, in its desire to dominate, a centralized monopoly of data holding, a cartel that used its vast resources to direct public opinion, for better or worse. |

| The counter-trends were not just Encryption and Cryptocurrency, even fellow giants like APPLE sought to overthrow the data centric order that drove organizations like Cambridge Analytica to meddle in national electoral affairs worldwide. His company was fighting in a way, a two front war. Between other internet empires that saw a different vision of how the internet and privacy should be done — and digital barbarians at the gates. |

For he figured what he started in a Harvard campus dorm roughly two decades ago, a revolution, a Social Network of profit, could be stolen by methods that would one day answer to the very same Federal authorities he once had to testified before — There really was no way of knowing what came next. |

WASHINGTON D.C., Paramountica — EARLY MORNING

_{EST Time (UTC -5)}

| A live MSNBC feed of an empty committee room, being prepped for a testimony of great interest to the national audience, before the row of chairs of the Commerce and Judiciary Committees, a single chair was positioned before a lower desk — the testimony later that morning would be delivered by a man who’s pseudonym would remain upheld by Federal authorities as per agreements laid out between Government lawyers and private Silicon Valley ones, and that was true enough so far — as a Senatorial floor staffer positioned the pseudonym’s nameplate before the desk — Satoshi Nakamoto. |

| It should be an interesting hearing, to see the face finally of the man who lead the drafting of the White Paper on Bitcoin. But either way, after a long day of scheduled items, he probably wouldn’t be awake to see it live, and would have to catch it on his Facebook Live feed in the afternoon — A few more key strokes and the Mission Statement was live on his blog, instantly dispatched to his nearly 200 million followers, a fraction of the 2.5 million people who checked, swiped down and up, laughed, raged and pondered on his website. |

_{WAR TO POVERTY} — THE PRIME MINISTER SUGA DECLARES WAR ON POVERTY

^{Reiwa 6 ― June 25, 2024}

| KANTEI, TOKYO — [...] In 2018, Japan's poverty rate was 15.4%. In comparison with 2012, the poverty rate was 16.1%, which indicates that it was falling. During the Shinjiro Administration between (2017-2021), there was an increase of 4.3%, reaching 19.7% of poverty in Japan. Shinjiro made some budget cuts in the social area, to get money to finance his programs and projects, which certainly reduced government aid to the poorest, increasing poverty in Japan. These (19.7%) decreased by 2.3%, falling to (17.4%) under the Abe Administration (2021-2022) and increased again by 3.6% to (21%) under the Shijijiro Administration (2022-2023) — Clearly with Shinjiro's impeachment and cuts in the social welfare area to raise money to finance his projects and programs, he has lost popularity and confidence in the Japanese people, making the LDP the favorite popular party. Currently under the Suga Administration, Prime Minister Suga has publicly announced that he is declaring war on poverty, promising to reduce the poverty rate by 3.3% to (17.7%) with his assistance program (NBIP) by 2027. |
