"The thoughts and hopes of all Yaroi—indeed of all the civilized world—are centered tonight on the battleship Jai Tong. There on that small piece of Yaroi soil anchored in Kyojakkya Harbor the West have just officially laid down their arms. They have signed terms of unconditional surrender.
For sometime now, the thoughts and fears of the whole civilized world are centered on another piece of soil—pieces actually, the soil of all the destroyed cities all over the South and the North by the cruel attack of the Axis one week ago. The mighty threat to civilization which began there is now laid at rest. It was a long road to Victory—and a bloody one.

We shall not forget Ma'ar Sara.

The West will not forget the Y.U.S. Jai Tong.

The evil done by the Western war lords can never be repaired or forgotten. But their power to destroy and kill has been taken from them. Their armies and what is left of their Navy are now impotent.

To all of us there comes first a sense of gratitude to The Worker's and Peasants who sustained our War effort and our Allies in the dark days of grave danger, who made us to grow from weakness into the strongest fighting force in history, and who has now seen us overcome the forces of tyranny that sought to destroy Our civilization.

Our first thoughts, of course—thoughts of gratefulness and deep obligation—go out to those of our loved ones who have been killed or maimed in this terrible war. On land and sea and in the air, Yaroi men and women have given their lives so that this day of ultimate victory might come and assure the survival of a civilized world. No victory can make good their loss.

We think of those whom death in this war has hurt, taking from them fathers, husbands, sons, brothers, and sisters whom they loved. No victory can bring back the faces they longed to see."

"Only the knowledge that the victory, which these sacrifices have made possible, will be wisely used, can give them any comfort. It is our responsibility—ours, the living—to see to it that this victory shall be a monument worthy of the dead who died to win it.

We think of all the millions of men and women in our armed forces and merchant marine all over the world who, after years of sacrifice and hardship and peril, have been spared by Providence from harm.

We think of all the men and women and children who during these years have carried on at home, in lonesomeness and anxiety and fear.

Our thoughts go out to the millions of Yaroii workers and bureaucrats, to our farmers and miners—to all those who have built up this country's fighting strength, and who have shipped to our Allies the means to resist and overcome the enemy.

Our thoughts go out to our civil servants and to the thousands of Yaroii who, at personal sacrifice, have come to serve in our War Government during these trying years; to the members of the Emergency Relief boards and ration boards; to the civilian defense and OFAS workers; to the men and women in the Intelligence and in the propaganda world—to all those who have helped in this cooperative struggle to preserve liberty and decency in the world.

We think of our departed Eternal Leader, Yao Meng, defender of the World Revolution and of our Honorable Leader Yung Shang, architect of world peace and cooperation.

And our thoughts go out to our gallant Allies in this war: to those who resisted the invaders; to those who were not strong enough to hold out, but who, nevertheless, kept the fires of resistance alive within the souls of their people; to those who stood up against great odds and held the line, until the Organization For the Advancement of Socialism together were able to supply the arms and the men with which to overcome the forces of evil."
"This is a victory of more than arms alone. This is a victory of liberty over tyranny.

From our war plants rolled the tanks and planes which blasted their way to the heart of our enemies; from our shipyards sprang the ships which bridged all the oceans of the world for our weapons and supplies; from our farms came the food and fiber for our armies and navies and for our Allies in all the corners of the earth; from our mines and factories came the raw materials and the finished products which gave us the equipment to overcome our enemies. From you, the People, came the moral fiber to uphold to our Socialist Ideals

The back of it all were the will and spirit and determination of a free people—who know what freedom is, and who know that it is worth whatever price they had to pay to preserve it.

It was the spirit of communism which gave us our armed strength and which made our men invincible in battle. We now know that that spirit of liberty, the freedom of the individual, and the personal dignity of man, are the strongest and toughest and most enduring forces in all the world."
"And so on on this day we take renewed faith and pride in our own way of life. We have our day of rejoicing over this victory. We have our day of prayer and devotion. Now let us set aside the grief and see this day as one of renewed consecration to the principles which have made us the strongest nation on earth and which, in this war, we have striven so mightily to preserve.

Those principles provide the faith, the hope, and the opportunity which help men to improve themselves and their lot. Socialism does not make all men perfect nor all society secure. But it has provided more solid progress and happiness and decency for more people than any other philosophy of government in history. And this day has shown again that it provides the greatest strength and the greatest power which man has ever reached.

We know that under it we can meet the hard problems of peace which have come upon us. A free people with free Allies, who can develop an anti-matter bomb, can use the same skill and energy and determination to overcome all the difficulties ahead.

Victory always has its burdens and its responsibilities as well as its rejoicing."
-Zhou Kang is interrupted by thunderous applause
-He patiently waits for it to start to fade, and continues:
"Friends..."
"Friends, we however face the future and all its dangers with great confidence and great hope. The Yaroi Union can build for itself a future of employment and security. Together with the OFAS, it can build a world of peace rounded on justice, fair dealing, and tolerance.

As President of the Union of the Socialist Republics of Yaroi, I proclaim the end of the Yaroi War Government so that we may continue to live our peaceful ways. Also I announce that all constitutional warranties have been reinstated, and new Elections for the Entire Union shall be held within 6 months. This is a day which we Yaroii shall always remember as a day of retribution—as we remember that other days, the 2 days of infamy.

From this day we move forward. We move toward a new era of security at home. With the other OFAS members we move toward a new and better world of cooperation, of peace and international good will and cooperation.

Our Socialist Society has brought us to this day of victory. With your help we will attain that peace and prosperity for ourselves and all the world in the years ahead."

"As we can see millions are joined here in the Revolution Square, to celebrate the end of the war, many are singing Yaroi and OFAS anthems were others are just here for the party - the reporter is then interrupted as a group of people start screaming in the back - THE WAR IS OVER, THE CAPITALISTS CAN SUCK MY - the signal then cuts back to Niu Shae-Ren

"Thank you Huo Ting, for your report live from Yaroi City, where as we can see the people are celebrating the fall of the Capitalists and the Victory of the World Revolution, we now go to Roine were millions are taking the streets of the city chanting 'Remember Ma'ar Sara' and protesting against the unnecessary violence during the War"

- the image then cuts back to the studio

"We have just received reports that a large memorial is being held in the ruins of Ma'ar Sara, were the survivors, relatives and friends to the dead of the cowardly attacks of last week , that have earlier today gathered in one of the entrances of the city, in highway 143 and have marched to the borders of the flooded area in what was the Liberators Park, were they are honoring the dead in a traditional Yaroi memorial funeral, were you light one floating lamp for the dead, to represent their soul fires reaching the fires of the Sun, but since there were nearly 40 million dead in the Greater Ma'ar Sara area, and we have received confirmation from the march leaders, that they are lighting one lamp for each dead, we are seeing one of the most beautiful, and touching images this humble news anchor have ever seen..."
"We will end our news report with the images of the Memorial in the Ruins of Ma'ar Sara, we thank you for your audience and stay tuned for YUPC has prepared a whole new programming in the HOLONet, and we are now back on air 24 hours a day 7 days for week"

YUPC
THIS ENDS YAROI'S OFICIAL TRANSMISSION
YOUR NORMAL PROGRAMMING WILL CONTINUE SHORTLY

"The division of the territory of Kriegslavia was made upon the grounds that half of the country would be living under a set of laws that obliged citizens to pay to acquire even the most basic civil rights and liberties, whereas the other would suffer just as much political manipulation, but under the system of a faux welfare system that presumed the citizens of that state were already generating enough capital to auto purchase their rights, although those would be kept only under the regency of a extremely strict set of guidelines and status goals. During the times of the Kaiserreich, everyday people would be moved from Kriegslavia to Jothunia, and vice versa, as the sole purpose of the state of Jothunia was to create a 'space of privilege', in which only the worthy would live, under the false sensation of being inoppressed.
For decades, in our culture, Jothunia was cast as a goal, a vision of utopia for a people who suffered under a excruciating totalitarianism. And yet, even that utopia was but a facade formed by the premise of crafting 'perfect, flawless citizens', who would become a 'new race promised to replace the entirety of the degenerated layers of the Krieger population'. The marks of once such massive social reform camps we learnt to call home are scarred deep and eternally in our hearts. Although, despite the scars, our brave and resilient people learnt to move forth. Recovering our so precious liberty, the Jötun-Krieger folk re-learnt its ways of life, once so libertarian and accepting, now upgraded by the egalitarian end to all class oppression."

It then goes back to the Congress in Ars, in a footage where Dilma Merkel is giving a speech.
"This day, my brothers and sisters from all across the Krieger lands, it is a day that had for over a century been in our sweetest dreams. The power of our brave warrior folk had been always, not in strife, or in military, or even in industry. Because none of those things have any sort of matter if not for the people. The people is our strenght, the people in its undying Unity, on like the ticking gears of a clock, we only truly work when we are as one. Made and meant to be together, by the hopes and strength of our ancestors so far as millennia ago, who would have never even thought of how great we would once become. And if we trailed all this long and arduous way up to the glory of our Socialist civilization, built and bodied by the force of the Workers, it is because as a nation we had never gave up. Even on the darkest hours, even under the most contrary harness of oppression, even beaten and shaken for so many times, we had never for once forgotten the values of what makes us Kriegers, of why once in the past our ancestors dubbed themselves as the Warriors of the North. And the reason why, is that through all of this, the Krieger people have proved not only to have such a strong sense of brotherhood and unity in labor, but shown the desire to extend this brotherhood to all peoples around us. And that is why today, once more United, our beloved Fatherland of Kriegslavia now comes to the hands of the International, for the good of our people, and leaves a warm and welcoming invitation for all peoples of the world to as well become one with the International, under their own sovereignty, and as soon as they find their right hour."
After Merkel's speech, then it is shown a short footage of a small part of a speech that was given not in Ars, but in Slavonia later on the same day, of the Governor of Slavonia, Iristella Geigerschmidt.

"Rejoice, our brothers and sisters across land and sea! Power to the people of Kriegslavia, power to our allies, and specially, power to all who wished for our best, and our best is when we are one! No longer will sisters and brothers be separated by an invisible, nonexistent barrier that we were forced to believe into. No longer will we be separated by egoistical whims and separatist policies, no longer will there be inequality among our people, nor two different measures for a single folk! From Slavonia beats the heart, from our veins runs the blood that since the beginning of our times was bond by spirit, flesh and mind! Our unity, as the desire of the very first founding leaders, now unites us back under the same banner, as our ancient chants sang from generation to generation! A unity no longer bound sole by the blood or the color of our skin, but by the desire to live as one in peace, prosperity and hope on the dawn of a new time, the time our ancestor dreamed of which each day comes closer, of the day all peoples across the whole world, united under the same banner, sing the same song!
My dearest brothers and sisters, when the day of the International arrives, it might be not our banner, and not our song, but yet, what matters is no longer the colors of a flag, nor the speech of a tongue, but the ideals of the working class, building together this world!
But until that day arrives, my sisters and brothers, we are one! We are one Kriegslavia, and we are the pioneers of the International!"
As she spoke that with passion, the crowd cheers vibrantly for her words.

It then shows images of the police in front of the building, closing the place.

"The Kritapo and the COMPOL are already in intense investigation, and having been contacted moments after the happening, they had managed to quickly intercept the agent of the assassination before he could escape."
Then it goes to the scene of a police chief being interviewed, Commandant Greger Nilsson, chief of the Northerner Crime Division of the COMPOL.

Images then are shown of the electoral campaigns and the candidates.

"Among the various candidates, various names were on strong concurrence for the position, representatives such as the state of Eren-Wünterjuk, Jakken Kunsergaard; from the state of Miklagard, Günther Kharut; and the Minister of Communications and midia Hela Kron.
Although, among many figures marked by charisma, the one that rose the most in campaign and popularity, winning the ballots, was the stern but captivating figure of the Minister of Defense and Homeland Security, Davros Lothar."

And so, a image of the new Prime Minister is shown, followed by videos of him participating in meetings and expositions during his campaign.

The reporter turns at the woman who is standing nearby. The woman has a towel over her shoulders, seeming to be lost.
“My body just reacted on its own...” She speaks and shakes her head. “But this is unreal… I couldn’t even believe what I was seeing… I still cannot… He was smiling when the police arrived. It’s just… unbelievable. How could anyone do this?!”

The reporter nods as she puts her hand on the woman’s shoulder. She turns back at the camera shortly after a medic takes the care of Blom back.

“It is unclear how the shooter brought a gun into public; however, the police suspect the gun had been modified to bypass their sensors. Our citizens are advised to stay at their homes until further announcements are made. As for now, we can only hope Ingrid Berg and Sjunne Andersson will make it and we shall be glad that the shooter has been apprehended before further harm could be done and currently is in custody.
We thank you for your attention and we will keep you updated on the situation.”
