[Special Feature] Achieving Independence on the Eve of the Signing Ceremony
Close today finally ushered in the signing ceremony of independence again. While welcoming today's historic day, I invite readers to join this journal and try to review the history of Clos Bell so far.
◆The Era of Autonomous Prefecture◆
Crossbel is located between the two major powers and has been a major transportation hub since ancient times. Therefore, it has been repeatedly involved in disputes and the governing countries have changed many times.
Qiyao calendar year 1134. In the form of the empire and the republic as suzerain states, their autonomy was recognized and autonomous prefectures were established. After a long period of time, although there were no obvious disputes on the surface, they were caught between the fighting under the surface of the two major powers, and various distortions were formed.
After the conduction revolution, due to the abundant Qi Yao stone produced in the Mainz Mine, the conduction technology was rapidly popularized. Coupled with the convenient location, Closbell has transformed into one of the top trading and financial cities on the mainland.
Although there were still many problems in this period, Clos Bell was also the fastest growing period. It can be said that the pursuit of freedom and the spirit of the people of Crossbel originated from this.
◆Era of Independence ◆
In August 1204 of the Qiyao calendar, the then Mayor of Clos Bell, Dita Kuroys, put forward the idea of letting Clos Bell be independent at the Conference of Commerce and Trade in West Semlia. In October of the same year, the mayor of Dita ignored the opposition of the empire and the Republic and used strong means to rule out his intervention, and then announced the establishment of the "Crossbel Independent State", and he became president.
Using this as the fuse, chaos developed. Civil war broke out in the Empire, and the Republic fell into an economic panic, shaking the continent of West Semlia.
In December of the same year, Speaker Henry McDowell issued a declaration of invalidity of independence. A few days later, President Dita was arrested, and Clos Bell, who was the founding nation, came to an end.
◆Era of Empire Territory◆
In January 1205, the Erebonian Empire, which was in the east of the civil war, sent troops to occupy Clos Bell in just one day. Then, as a result of the signing of the treaty, Crossbel lost his autonomy and became a state of the empire.
The Republic against this incident sent troops to attack Clos Bell. Although fighting broke out in the state, the Imperial Mecha Army and the Governor’s Temporary Military Attache fought to stop it, and finally the Republican Army had to retreat.
In March of the same year, Rufas El Barrea, who was appointed as the first governor, announced that the empire would merge Clos Bell, so Clos Bell was officially added to the empire.
In the era of the imperial territory, Crossbell was under the management of the governor's palace. At the same time, it was also planned in the empire's "Eight Metropolis Concept", and it was more closely integrated with the empire on the political and economic levels.
However, diplomatic relations with the Republic have been completely cut off, and it can be said that they have lost the cultural and spiritual diversity they had before. For the people of Krossberg, they are facing a long period of cold winter.
◆The chaos after the war◆
In September 1206, the war between the Empire and the Republic, which involved the surrounding countries, ended on the second day after the war, and the Imperial Army withdrew from the front line of Krossberg. The imperial government and Speaker McDowell began to negotiate independence.
However, in October of the same year, the government’s security forces were unwilling to retreat and, despite the appeal of the former Governor Lufas, suppressed the entire city. This had a strong impact on Clos Bell who was standing in front of him.
This matter may even cause the Republican Army to intervene, but in February of the following year-centered on the Special Services Division, the police, the garrison, and the aspiring citizens categorically carried out the liberation operation. They succeeded in suppressing the guards squadron that was stuck inside the Orchid Tower, and Clos Bell’s two-year imperial domain era has finally come to an end.
◆Time has come to today◆
Qiyao calendar March 15, 1207. Today this day will write a new page in history. Through the re-independence signing ceremony scheduled to be held at 2 pm, Crossbel will once again achieve independence as an autonomous state.
In addition, although it is an autonomous prefecture, it is different from the previous situation where the empire and the republic are the suzerain. This time, the Codex State of Artria is used as the suzerain, and it has been recognized as having complete autonomy.
In the future, Closberg is expected to establish a sound administrative system that excludes the political interference of the two major powers, and will become a buffer zone between the two countries on the geographic and spiritual levels, and contribute to the peace and cultural development of the West Semlia continent. , Economic development has brought great contributions.
[Performing Arts] "Across Countless Nights" Commemorative Performance tonight
After last year’s practice performance and last month’s special performance, the new drama "Across the Countless Nights", which is now a topic of topic, will be officially performed for the first time to commemorate independence.
People scrambled to witness the three dancers on the stage, and the tickets were sold out within a few minutes after the sale.
In addition, according to a person with the theater company, the special drama led by Ilia Pratière will also be released in the near future.
[Economy] IBC Building is reborn for the second time
The BC Headquarters building located in the north of the harbor area, during the Empire Territory, most of the floors were used as the branch office building of the RF Group. However, due to the upcoming independence, the RF Group announced last month that it would reduce the size of the branch office.
As a result, the floor vacated will be occupied by Urnu, which originally withdrew from Clospel, and ZCF, which has continued to strengthen international cooperation in recent years. As an international building where the most cutting-edge companies gather, this building is scheduled to undergo a second transformation. Currently, the renovation is in full swing to welcome the reopening next month.

【International】Cross Bell falls! Occupied again by the former governor
On the afternoon of March 15th, the re-independence signing ceremony held in the state of Closberg was intruded by armed groups. A few hours later, all areas of the state fell. The sudden attack shocked all countries.
◆The principal offender is the former governor who escaped from prison◆
According to the video from the scene, the person who directed the attack was Rufas El Barrea, the former governor of Clos Bell, who is supposed to be serving his sentence. The soldiers in black who appeared with him were believed to have illegally occupied Clos Bell until last month, the police force of the Governor’s Palace (commonly known as the Governor’s Guard), both of which were originally imprisoned in Orlocks, Kruchen State. fortress.
The new news obtained by this publication pointed out that the Orloc Fortress was attacked late at night on the 14th, and the former Governor of Rufas and the Guards escaped collectively. Then only half a day later, he attacked and occupied Clos Bell, which shows that including escape from prison, it is an extremely organized and planned crime.
◆Declaration of a unified country◆
After the attack, communications with Clos Vernet were completely interrupted, but before that, the former Governor of Rufas had passed his statement to various countries. In the content of the statement, the former governor called himself the "new president" and announced the establishment of the "Crossbel United Nations" under his own leadership.
What he attempted and whether he was related to the late Prime Minister Osborne remains unclear.
◆The government stated that it has nothing to do with time◆
After the incident, Interim Prime Minister Regnitz issued a statement immediately. In addition to acknowledging that there were omissions in the security system of the Orlocs Fortress, he also stated that the imperial government had nothing to do with the series of actions of the former governor of Rufas. At the same time, it severely criticized this improper illegal occupation.
However, judging from the international community’s stern perspective on the empire after the war, "the imperial government cannot directly interfere with this incident" (informed sources pointed out), the government may face difficult decision-making.
[Society] There are signs of stabilization in economic activities in various regions
Due to the post-war chaos and the high compensation paid to the Republic, economic activities in various regions have been very sluggish, and the level has fallen sharply compared to before the war. However, after the government has closely cooperated with the four big names to promote the activation of circulation and trade in various regions, signs of recovery have appeared in some regions.
Experts said: "This is a period of transition from the wartime economy, and it will take some time before it can be fully restored to its original state."
[Military] Two more divisions will be disintegrated and merged
The Empire’s regular army has reduced its armaments based on the armistice agreement and has entered the third phase starting this month. The 21st Division and the 24th Division will also be disintegrated and merged into other divisions. As a result, the empire's remaining combat power will be completely lower than before the implementation of the "National Mobilization Law". The manufacturing industry is pleased that it "can reduce the shortage of manpower", but on the other hand, some people within the military express dissatisfaction.
In addition, Marshal Van Dijk has officially stated a few days ago that "after the reduction in armaments and the reorganization of the command system, he will retire."
[International] Carvald’s new president’s approval rate is still soaring
The new president of the Kalvard Republic took office at the beginning of this year. Before he took office, he received a high degree of support among the citizens because of his tough stance against the empire. Not long after he took office, he even returned the high compensation paid by the empire to the citizens. This move seems to have further increased his approval rating. It is said that it has surpassed the highest approval rate of the previous president during his tenure.
However, some political commentators criticized his “money withdrawal” behavior as “lack of vision” and believe that the stability of the regime achieved in this way will not last for long.
[Culture] Another upsurge? Culinary Journey
Recently, due to various reports from magazines and other media, the "Food Journey" with the purpose of traveling around the food spots has once again attracted attention.
The opportunity is that the tourism industry, which was temporarily sluggish due to the war, has successively developed new meals in order to attract tourists. From then on, you can often see young people walking and eating on the street.
Some of the meals are for a limited period. Readers may wish to take this opportunity to taste it.
[Special Feature] The Unified State—Cross Bell under the New System
Four days have passed since the signing ceremony, and there has been a major change in the situation of Crossbel. Although the circulation and communication are currently hindered, this journal will still try to bring the correct information to readers as much as possible.
◆Who are the central members of the new government? ◆
In the re-independence signing ceremony, the establishment of a unified state was announced and the new government of Clos Bell was dominated. Standing on top of it was the new President Rufas Al Barrea who had ruled Clos Bell for two years as the governor. His re-appearance has had an impact on many citizens, but besides him, other members of the new government center have also deeply puzzled us.
Dita Kuroys, the former President of the Independent State of Closberg, who triggered the independent state incident two years ago. Garcia Rossi, the former deputy leader of the gang "Rubacher" who once dominated half of the underworld in this city. And even though the costumes are different from the past, it is still a well-known artist that Clos Bell is proud of—Ilia Pratière.
Why would they assist the new president? When did Dita and Garcia, who were supposed to be in custody, leave the detention center? There are too many doubts. In addition, the related origins of another man wearing armor who appeared with them are currently under investigation.
◆The authority of the state legislature has been frozen◆
The new government announced yesterday that it will formally freeze the authority of the Closberg State Assembly. The reason is that most of the members, including Speaker McDowell, are currently missing and unaccounted for, causing the assembly to fail to function normally. However, now that the executive and legislative affairs are all controlled by the new government, what authority does the assembly have? , But it makes people feel suspicious.
On the day following the signing ceremony, the authority of the Crossbell police and garrison was suspended semi-permanently. Nowadays, the unified state government can be said to have essentially dominated Crossbel.
◆Continuing martial law◆
From the day of the signing ceremony, all areas of Crossbel continued to be under martial law. It is pointed out that although the facilities in the city and Ursla Hospital are open, MWL has ceased operations. Including the city, the National Unification National Security Team (commonly known as the Black Guards) has been deployed in all important locations, and at the same time, you can see the deterrent appearance of the Mohuang fighters.
The public relations department of the new government stated that the black guards are all well-trained and equipped with the latest equipment. They are among the elite troops. Compared with the previous "Zorge" and "Melkia", the new magical fighter "Hermod" has improved output power and durability, and its stand-alone combat power is compared with the current aircraft of the Imperial Army. The Armed Forces must be several levels higher.
The reason for deploying such forces is believed to be to prevent military interference by the Empire and the Republic.
In addition, there is some news that there are still people in the surrounding areas of the city who continue to make intermittent resistance to the new government. It is rumored that those people are the remnants of the old garrison that have been "broken" in the official announcement.
◆Response of the citizens◆
Although the citizens also criticized the tough practices of the new unified country government, what is surprising is that most people seem to have accepted the new regime. Perhaps it was because the desire for independence exploded after being suppressed for two years, and many people also agreed with the future policy guidelines of the unified nation announced by the new president.
Due to the above-mentioned background factors, the chaos after the regime change was expected to be less than expected. However, due to the continued alert state and strong communication interference in all areas of Closberg, it is not yet possible to know the situation abroad.
In addition, one of our reporters left Crossbel before the signing ceremony, and it is believed that they are still conducting interviews abroad. After getting in touch with her, the magazine will immediately bring the latest external news to readers.
◆The whereabouts of the Secret Service Department is still missing ◆
The whereabouts of the Secret Service Division and its related persons who confronted the new President Rufas at the signing ceremony are not yet clear.
In a situation reminiscent of the Independent State incident two years ago, what they think and what they are doing is not only the new government, but also the focus of all citizens.
As soon as there is news in this regard, it will be reported to you immediately.
[Flying News] Contains all the important points in the Clos Bell city, liberated!
The garrison, the police, the guerrilla association, and people with lofty ideals gathered from various places jointly launched a combat operation. At noon today, the new government of the unified country took back the Clos Bell area.
Before this combat operation, yesterday, the Black Guards strongholds in Mainz, Misuram, Detention Center and other places had been suppressed. As a result, all the important points in all areas of Crossbel were liberated. The week-long illegal occupation and domination of the new regime has finally ended.
[Emergency News] A giant tower appears on Lake Airum
Not long after the liberation operation was completed, a structure like a huge tower suddenly appeared in the center of Lake Airum. It is estimated that the height exceeds 500 sub-moments, which is more than twice that of the Orchid Tower.
◆Juneo Sea Fortress Destroyed◆
When this mysterious tower appeared, it launched a huge beam of light towards the sky. Afterwards, the Juno Sea Fortress in Lamar State of the Empire was covered by a beam of light pouring down from the sky, and then as if evaporated, the entire fortress disappeared without a trace.
Fortunately, due to the reduction and reorganization of the Imperial Army, no troops are currently stationed in the fortress, so it is said that no one has been affected by the destruction of the fortress.
◆The final weapon? The new president’s declaration of a unified continent◆
After the destruction of the Juno Sea Fortress, various places immediately received statements from the new President Rufas. According to the content of the statement, this mysterious tower is the final weapon "Inverted Babylon" secretly built by the government of the unified country. The statement also hinted that if countries refuse to join a unified country, they will once again use the unprecedented power of the weapon.
【International】All countries enter a state of emergency alert
Due to the emergence of "Upside Down Babylon" and the announcement by the new President Rufas, countries have gradually entered a state of emergency. Including the gathering of the army and the evacuation of residents in certain areas, etc., people in the media from all over the country all said in unison that "it has become the state of preparation for war as it was six months ago."
Among them, the response of the Republic of Kalvard has attracted the attention of everyone. The Republic, named as the next target of Babylon, seems to have quickly deployed its main combat power to the border, and in a short time it has formed a front that is sufficient to encircle Clospel. The new President Roy Granhart said in a speech that "when the safety of our nationals is threatened, we will definitely remove the threat and ask the other party to pay the corresponding price." According to the analysis of government officials, this is a hint that the country will forcefully intervene in Clos Bell.
[Interim Report] Start a tough battle!
Based on the agreement between the Closbell Provisional Council and various parties, it is determined that the combat operation of "Upside Down Babylon" will be launched.
