No opposition from other parties and a lot of influence. It's true that he doesn't have that much to show for, but Japan isn't exactly a troublemaker when it comes to democracy.
And the demographic issue is a slow one. It's acute to us but I think it remains a distant problem to the everyday voter there.

| Tehran, Iran |

| The government meeting was in place. Prime Minister Hassani and the cabinet awaited news in regards to Her Majesty Xassandra Pahlavi, it was vital that she had signed the documents. Their messenger to the Kish Island was no one else but Mirham Kaisar, the Minister of Interior Affairs and direct Vice-Prime Minister. However, a day has passed now and no answer has been given, with Hassani growing in nervousness. If her plot was to be overturned by the Empress, Hassani's career would end quickly but she hoped that her influence on the young Empress remained strong. For the past two months, Hassani was able to put on trial many of her political enemies for conspiring against the Empress and the country, but her new step would be to solidify her power in the country.

With little knowledge of what has occurred on the Kish Island, Hassani nervously awaited for her minister of foreign affairs to finish his speech.

    [ Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bahitkar Abbas ]: "...without a doubt, the solidification of your power above the power of the Dynasty will go noticed in the world, and may cause us reactions, especially from the Western world, based on documentation from the past, the Western world, and to some degree the Eastern world, would not have an issue with the Dynasty solidifying their power over the country---"

    [ Prime Minister, Yasmine Hassani ]: "What's that supposed to mean?"

    [ Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bahitkar Abbas ]: "It means, I'm afraid, that your time has come, Mrs Hassani."

    [ Prime Minister, Yasmine Hassani ]: "What are you talking about Abbas?"

    [ Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bahitkar Abbas ]: "No one would agree for you to solidify your power within Iran. And especially the international community, therefore needed measures have been put in place."

    [ Prime Minister, Yasmine Hassani ]: "Without my knowledge?! You all know about this? You've went against me?"

    [ Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bahitkar Abbas ]: "I'm afraid not, Yasmine."

    [ Prime Minister, Yasmine Hassani ]: "The Empress?"

Two loud gun shots came through to the conference room. Paralysed in shock, Hassani and the ministers stood and watched. Suddenly the large door to the conference room opened, as Secular Brigade soldiers entered, with two dead bodies of the guards behind them.

    [ Major Commander of Secular Brigades, Irene Artan ]: "Prime Minister Yasmine Hassani, you're under arrest, along with your government members."

    [ Prime Minister Yasmine Hassani ]: "I beg your pardon? You cannot arrest me, you're under my command."

    [ Major Commander of Secular Brigades, Irene Artan ]: "Take them."

In a moment, the soldiers captured the ministers of the government including Prime Minister Hassani, but not Bahitkar who remaining smiling slightly would stand to the side.

    [ Prime Minister Yasmine Hassani ]: "Are you with them? You're traitor Bahitkar! What did they offer you in return?"

    [ Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bahitkar Abbas ]: "The special position of a Prime Minister."

    [ Prime Minister Yasmine Hassani ]: "You traitor beast! Shame on you!"

    [ Major Commander of Secular Brigades, Irene Artan ]: "Enough of this soap opera, take them away."

Dragged out by the secular brigades, Irene and Bahitkar would remain alone for a moment.

    [ Major Commander of Secular Brigades, Irene Artan ]: "About the Prime Ministership, a decision has been made."

    [ Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bahitkar Abbas ]: "What decision?"

    [ Major Commander of Secular Brigades, Irene Artan ]: "Your service will not be forgotten."

In a matter of seconds, Irene shot Bahitkar Abbas who crushed to the ground in a pool of blood. Looking around for a moment, Irene put the pistol away before making her way out.

| Undisclosed Location, Iran |

| It's been now six years of imprisonment for Princess Cherlynn and her maid, Sanna and her son Sandan. The troublesome and mentally unstable Princess is the daughter of Empress Shahnaz, the Empress assassinated in mid 1990s. Being forced into imprisonment in Russia, then in the Winter Mansion, fooled by her gay husband Roah, the Princess only had Sanna and Sandan left in the world. Roah was murdered in the Winter Mansion over six years ago, and today marked his anniversary of death. Sandan was now a 15 year old teenager who grew in bitterness towards the establishment and the situation around. The contact to the outside world has been completely forbidden over the past six years, with no information reaching them.

But today was to be a special day, as the guards have announced. Dressed in their finest clothing, the three awaited in the small room they have been forced to live in.

    [ Princess Cherlynn ]: "They have finally realised their mistake, probably. And it'll be my turn to put the crown on, to sit on the peacock throne."

    [ Sanna ]: "Of Your Highness. The people will love you."

    [ Princess Cherlynn ]: "I know they will. People need me."

    [ Sanna ]: "Do you think many things have changed outside?"

    [ Princess Cherlynn ]: "I wouldn't count on it. The world tends to go slower than we imagine. What do you reckon darling?"

Cherlynn turned her attention to the young Prince. Taking his father's Germanic looks and Persian character, the young Prince looked dazzling.

    [ Prince Sandan ]: "I never seen the world mother. I can only remember the Russian Palaces, the houses in the mountains and this."

    [ Princess Cherlynn ]: "I know dear, what they have done to you is worse than what they have done to your grandmother. But they'll pay for it, I promise you---"

The doors opened, with each lock opening at a time. Through the door, one man appeared. Nicely dressed, he smiled at the three.

    [ Commander of Secular Brigades, Karthom Jagsan ]: "It's with my pleasure to announce that you have been chosen as the new monarch of Iran."

    [ Princess Cherlynn ]: "Finally, my time has come!"

    [ Commander of Secular Brigades, Karthom Jagsan ]: "No, not you Your Highness. Prince Sandan Pahlavi."

    [ Prince Sandan ]: "What?"

    [ Commander of Secular Brigades, Karthom Jagsan ]: "You will be released today in the afternoon hours when the situation stabilises."

    [ Princess Cherlynn ]: "What situation?"

The commander would nod at them all before leaving off and locking the door. Sandan shaking his head would look away laughing.

    [ Princess Cherlynn ]: "Well, they have chosen you...it seems..."

    [ Prince Sandan ]: "I'm not doing any of that sh*t."

    [ Sanna ]: "Your Highness...if I may say something, this is a great opportunity. For you. If His Highness Sandan gets out and...becomes the monarch, he can let you out and then give the throne to you."

    [ Princess Cherlynn ]: "You're right...you're very right! Sandan. It's time we have a talk, about the history of your family. Before you get out."

Sandan would turn towards his mother as both Sanna and Cherlynn would slowly approach him.

    Master. Jil Mdasum

    Osman, I do not know the laws for women such in your land but here we have strict code on women. Women are no equal to men in both strength or mind, they are creatures that exist to serve their men. In our society, there are casts that must be followed. The lowest is that of a slave, a slave has no purpose but to serve his or her master. The slave till death must always stand in the shadow of his/her master, for a female slave, she has the chance to become her master's concubine but that is it for her. The second-lowest cast is what Rize referred to as Nomi, a person with no name. If you haven't noticed our society values Clan association. If you have no Clan then you are Nomi, 'without a name' essentially. Those who have no name are slaves or servants to those who do. Those with Clan name are automatically greater then nomi or slave, but some clans are weaker then others, it varies...and last but not least. The Mdasum, our Clan is the way! Our clan is the direct descendant of the mighty Kazaku Kosovai, the forefather of Zavali.

Osman Ali: Quran chapter 17 verse 37, it says “And do not walk upon the earth exultantly. Indeed, you will never tear the earth [apart], and you will never reach the mountains in height.”

Osman said as he ate struggling to frown with displeasure due to the amazing taste of the food.

Osman Ali: The Catangi... who dominate our empire, they once had similar systems where certain Catangi clans were more powerful than the others, but upon converting to Islam, the realised that the only distinction in life is that between a Muslim and a non-Muslim. Only one who doesn’t serve the Creator is not equal to the one who does where I come from. But I will not try to force my way, I am your guest I will abide by your culture and leave the slave girl outside.

CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION MEETS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN LUANDA - BEGINS PLANS FOR A FEDERAL REPUBLIC
September 1, 2013

[With the Second Civil War over and order restored for the most part, the Terravi Democratic Alliance has turned its attention from waging war to planning the future of the nation. As per Akachi's victory speech in August, a Constitutional Convention has gathered in the old National Assembly building in Luanda. Each of the eighteen provinces was to have a minimum of one delegate - those with over a million residents would have a delegate for each million, rounding up. In all, 29 delegates, ranging from former politicians from the First Republic, to TDA soldiers, to everyday farmers and labourers, took their places. Akachi, legally not a native of any province (though his mountain temple home of Mongandeyo technically falls within Huambo Province, it has never been included in censuses or elections), was elected Speaker of the Convention. The figurehead of the revolution which fought for the very existence of this Convention, and the Republic it seeks to found, will serve as a mediator for the debates which will last until December.]

[The first issue raised by the Convention was how to prevent another military coup. Several delegates proposed the new Constitution should establish a federal republic, as opposed to the unitary republic in effect during the First Republic. This proposal quickly gained majority support, as did the following proposal - that the new National Assembly should be a bicameral legislature instead of the unicameral legislature it once was. This would require a remodel of the National Assembly building, but this would be more than worth it in the opinion of the Convention, whose consensus is that there must be more checks and balances to prevent government overreach.]

[In this vein of thought, but not yet wholly agreed upon after the first of many meetings, is the idea of both a President and Prime Minister. During the First Republic, the directly elected President acted as both head of state and government. Additionally, some have proposed that party conventions nominate their candidates for President à la the United States, to prevent unpopular candidates from rising to the political forefront, such as Jioko Ebele, the last President of Terravia before the 2001 coup. These latter ideas, unlike the federal republican, bicameral model, shall remain debated by the Convention in the coming weeks, or perhaps months. On a less crucial but still significant note, the Convention chose a new flag for Terravia, replacing the plain sky blue flag of the TDA with a horizontal tricolour of white, sky blue and black, defaced with a black lion. White represents hope and purity, sky blue represents liberty and the TDA who fought for it, and black represents the people, the foundation of the nation. The black lion in the centre of the flag has been the prevailing symbol of Terravia for over a millennium.]

[The eyes of the world now fall on its youngest nation - the next three months stand to shape its governance and political future considerably. And if the model the Constitutional Convention proves unpopular with the people, they may vote to return to the Constitution of old come the December referendum...]

I gotta make an RP about the number of SAFL Legionnaires lost during the war. Like the new flag by the way, kind of a throwback to your old flag but with the blue of the TDA replacing the old red.

Yeah that's the idea

The red as an important colour goes back to tribal days - it was one of the two main colours of the Stiwe tribe and became associated with Stiwe traits such as strength and militarism

By replacing the red with the sky blue of Queiros' National Democracy and the Terravi Democratic Alliance, the flag is a claim that their ideals of liberty and justice are more important than strength and militarism

Sweet, I like it. I do apologize for not being involved as much as I should have, because of my job being apart of an essential necessity I’ve been very busy lately.

True, but still I wish I could’ve released more stuff about SAFL involvement. Well, I still can, but it gonna be 'flashback/historical' RP's, besides the RP about the casualties taken by the legion.

Dr. Jacob Glanville, a San Francisco-based doctor who was featured on Netflix’s series “Pandemic,” says his team may have found antibodies which could treat COVID-19.

“We are happy to announce we have completed the engineering and we have some very potent antibodies that can be effective against the virus,” said Dr. Glanville on Monday.

Glanville told Radio New Zealand that his team used a series of five antibodies that were able to neutralize SARS in 2002, and adapted them to attack COVID-19.
