PRESS

Par Gov't - Con: While all of Europe may sympathize with omnificent Sultan’s views of the decadent Russian ruler, the French Government has serious concerns regarding the wider implications of the method of expressing unhappiness with the Tsar’s actions. Next thing you know, he’ll be spitting out his wine at wine tastings.

Par Gov't: I will be away from 13-16 October inclusive.

StP Govt: Vodka crisis tempered.

Due to Swedish grain, the vodka crisis which did put the whole nation into misery, now seems to be be over its deepest point. The Tsar is very impressed by the wisdom of the Germain Kaiser who did fully understand the importance to grand the Russian troops access to Sweden. The people are now celebrating and the crisis seems over. But as Defence minister Rasputin did point out at the pressconference yesterday, the new vodka supply also has some negative side effects. He mentioned the effect of the new vodka on the Russian troops and suggested that they had become quite passive due to too large intake of alcohol. Not yet confirmed sources from within the Russian gouvernment suggest that vodka supply to the Southern troops will be soon replaced by inferiour Turkish Raki to get them motivated to fight harder against the Turks.

Con Gov't: Over and over we will smash against the units of the infidel Bear. The forces of the great Turkish empire will never turn back, never quit until the Bear is a food for the voles and merkats or we are all dead.

Brussels: The government announces that German is the new national language. While we are concerned with the great conflux of power around our border we do understand it is our destiny to be part of the fatherland.

... Singapore ... The English Primeminister appeared today attempting to determine if there was a secure location for him to live in exile.

Autumn 1902 deadline: 5pm BST, 26th October 2006.
