Few people within Erinaum like the Masonale.

Erinaum has been brewing its own, traditional strong alcoholic drink, called Âkkáłé¡ for thousands of years.  Âkkáłé is approximately 78-proof strong liquor made from fermented apricots, plums and honey.  It has a sweet but bitter taste and is stronger than vodka.  Erinamian traders start shipping it to other nations.

Certain undermining groups within Masona catch word about this new drink and decide it needs a little "pacifying"...

BREAKING NEWS!!!

UNKNOWN ARSONISTS SET FIRE TO THE NEW Akkatei FACTORY!

Crime in Masona is up 15%...

Update on Avalonia's economic situation:

Tarrif is as such: None on goods blonging to the Eastern Consortium or members thereof, tariff affects all goods available in local markets purchased from other countries not part of the Eastern Consortium.

Muscles producing certain key components used to make purple die have been discovered in the waters east of Avalonia.

Political news:

Avalonia's leader, Hamon, is retiring to private life at the age of 65. The Avalonian Ruling Party (Parliament if you will) has deemed Hamon's second sonn best suited for a leadership role, and has been acepted as leader by the ruling party and general masses.

Many of the barbarians that joined Avalonia to overthrow Caprica have returned to their former dwellings, but around 1.5 million civilians have chosen to remain as part of Avalonia. Many of these will be inhabiting the Avalonian colonies on the southern shore while Avalonian workers work to build dwellings inside Avalonia's borders for them. Another .5 million combatants have chosen to remain a part of Avalonia. The Avalonians that were citizens prior to the war have returned to Avalonia.

Military news:
Downsizing the military due to lesser need.

Due to a series of events the Thieves guild of Masona becomes more and more notorious.

Masonale still is a hard competitor in the beverage market.

BREAKING NEWS!!!

UNKNOWN ARSONISTS SET FIRE TO THE NEW Akkatei FACTORY!
The men who lit the factory on fire were captured successfully, tortured and interrogated.  The men confessed to have ties to the Masonan Government.

King ¡œvón III is outraged and demands 8 billion Kænèmurs in compensation.  (Equal to about 20 million dollars modern-day)

Âkkáłé¡ is produced only in Erinaum, and is a trade secret within the country.  Prices are reduced in many countries due to a greater production of this drink.  Erinaum sends 10000 national troops to the border, along with slaves to build a large wall around the country.

Avalonia enacts an embargo on Masonan goods, as Erinaum is a member of the Eastern Consortium. No military action is expected to be taken.

The Aloisian capital has been completed as barbarians from Avalonia drift through. The barbarians are welcomed and given food and shelter.

The Avalonian government issues a strong warning to the barbarians not to get involved with Alosia, as they are enemiesof the Avalonian ally, Rossiya Imperii. The Avalonian government will not, however, force the barbarians to leave Alosia if they choose to live there and fac certain destruction.

Avalonian food production goes up as ex-soldiers and barbarians settle down to become farmers as part of Avalonia's plan to downsize the military. Ex-soldiers are also being employed as fishermen, mechanics (those with any manual occupation smiths, carpenters, etc.), and other various occupations.

The men who lit the factory on fire were captured successfully, tortured and interrogated.  The men confessed to have ties to the Masonan Government.

King ¡œvón III is outraged and demands 8 billion Kænèmurs in compensation.  (Equal to about 20 million dollars modern-day)

Âkkáłé¡ is produced only in Erinaum, and is a trade secret within the country.  Prices are reduced in many countries due to a greater production of this drink.  Erinaum sends 10000 national troops to the border, along with slaves to build a large wall around the country.

The emperor of Masona refuses that he knew any of the arsonists in government.

One of the royal catalogers tied the arsonists to the Thieves Guild...

We gladly pay off the compensation, and are very sorry, but the thieves guild has grown out of our control. They may start raiding royalty owned places.

The Masonian Guard is formed to undermine any anarchist groups.

King ¡œvón III sends 500 of the Erinamian Elite to Masona as mercenaries.  They are skilled at Javelin throwing, Archery marksmanship and efficiency, and close combat.

With them they bring 5 cases of Âkkáłé¡ to Masona's leader as a thank you for the compensation.  Âkkáłé¡ is extremely valuable and takes 2 years to make one bottle.  This sums up to about 200 million Kænèmurs of Åkkáłé¡.  (Or 5000 dollars of Åkkáłé¡)

Erinaum's population reaches 2203012 people.

Caprica is alive and well :3

Some of the barbarians that joined with Avalonia have decided to remain in the colonies on the southern coasts, and exist as a barbarian nation paying tribute in return for protectin from Avalonia. This nation has around a million people in it, and supports itself with fishing and other nautical endeavours, any unemployed barbarians within Avalonia tend to move to this nation. It is ruled by the barbarian lord, Rachashna.

Avalonia's population hits 3.5 million. Military is down to one third its wartime size, and is primarily made up of the so called "Elites" who have few skills other than the arts of war, and master fighting in various methods; around a hundred thousand assorted infantry and cavalry remain aside from the Elites. The Avalonian navy remains at full capacity at present, but will be half demilitarized for use of trade and such ventures.

The treasures of Avalonia have been, for the most part, reconsolidated to the area of the capitol, including the golden sword, Ava. The religious group in control of the three gems never left Avalonia, and will not demilitarize for the time being. Work on the construction, and collection of books for the Grand Avalonian Library resumes in earnest. Efforts are being made to educate the Average Avalonian on how to read, write, etc.

Due to the influx of barbarians int Avalonia, the national languages grow to include Norse and Greek.

Underground operations of the so-called thieves guild is growing. More operations have been heard connecting to other cities. Some criminals are apprehended, but still the group remains active.

BREAKING NEWS!!!

ARSONISTS BURN DOWN THE CAPITAL'S LIBRARY, CITIZENS ARE IN FEAR!

The Masonian emperor commands total lockdown on the capital and the empire's borders. The empire holds its breath waiting for more news about the arsonists.

The Masonian Gaurd is at full alert, any activity in the capital or at the borders will be considered suspicious.

The Erinamian Elite reach the city safely before the lockdown.  At the same time, a courier reaches ¡ævàs-Ïnük, Erinaum's capital about the Masonan crCIA.  Erinaum sends 2000 more of the Erinamian Elite to Masona for aid.  Erinaum also sends the Hävérbáïdek Mounted Elite to Masona.  (a force of 318 skilled riders, that carry crossbows and longswords)

They bear a note of good intention towards the Masonan government, and offer, along with the Elite already within the borders, in any way to help rat out the threat.


The city of Ástérváïs (pop. 220569) becomes a center of philosophy.
