THE RUSSIAN PRESS:
In a foolhearty move, which is characteristic of the German high command, Germany has attacked French colonists in Africa down in the Congo. This has depleted forces on the homefront, and enraged the French people. Archduke Adrian has responded by invading Munich with help from other peaceloving countries. Mother Russia is doing her level best to aid in battling the German aggression with the Russian military.

In other news, fights are breaking out all over the south between Turkish taskmasters and Russian and Italian freedom fighters. Liberation forces from Rumania have recently been sited heading into Bulgaria shouting: "Death to the Sultan! Death to the Sultan!"

The Sultan was last seen booking steamship tickets for Cuba. (How fitting for that backstabbing pirate!)
