Vrymnul Declares War on Amalah!

QUATRON October 12, 1912 - The Vrymnul government today declared war on Amalah, ending the peace that was negotiated between Amalah and Azania. Quatron's negotiators lead by the Emperor himself had successfully negotiated a treaty along with Bendhermong, Amalah, and Azania that would have brought a cease-fire to the war in Azania. Both parties had agreed to an international commission and a cease-fire, but Vrymnul invaded Amalah claiming that Quatron had manipulated the process. The Imperial Government issued a denunciation of Vrymnul's move saying that the country had "destroyed an international body's work at preserving peace among nations." The Imperial Senate and Assembly are both issuing denunciations of the move. Quatron has long had good relations with the small country of Amalah on the north of the continent, although the negotiating team was prepared to denounce their friendship should the International Committee have found them guilty.

VISHEBA April 12, 1912 - Foreign Minister Vishesh Bhatnagar, Duke of Bhatnagistan, CQE concluded a deal with the Sercian government to purchase an extension of the protectorate Bhatnagistan.
