PARLIAMENT HOUSE
Seyder, Joe Parks, Hiram Land

After the cleansing of Muslims in the lands of the Ink, the people of Hiramia, especially the Muslim community, were outraged. The 16 MPs who were Muslims immediately sent a bill through Parliament which would freeze all assets in Hiram Land that relate to Inkpolitian businesses and persons, among the following list:

- Institute a Level 5 Travel Ban (no Hiramians allowed in Inkpolitia without special written permission, all Hiramians in Inkpolitia asked to evacuate) on Inkpolitia
- Ban most goods in Hiram Land that came from Inkpolitian factories and related areas in Inkpolitia
- Destruction of most Inkpolitian goods currently in Hiramian waters or lands, including seizure and registration
- Complete restriction of Inkpolitian businesses to perform goods and services in Hiram Land
- Permanent grounding of all Inkpolitian aircraft in Hiram Land, and a ban of Inopolitian airlines and aircraft from Hiramian airspace
- Seizure, registration and impounding of all Inkpolitian cargo and cruise ships

This bill was passed unanimously in both houses of Parliament and signed by the President and Prime Minister. Along with that, failure to comply with this bill would require in harsh prison terms.

ATTENTION UNION OF JUSTICE

Firstly I would like to say that it has been an honor serving you as Vice Founder. The friendships I’ve made here I will cherish forever as well as the memories I’ve made good and bad. My time in the UOJ was one that I will not forget anytime soon and I wish this region well in its future endeavors. However after the events of tonight I do not feel that this is my home any longer. Lately, especially within the past month or so, this has been a rather stressful time for me in regards to this region. I realize now that it is time I moved on for my own sake and my own sanity. This is not an attack on the region, nor is it an attack on particular members of the region. I sincerely wish you all the best in your future endeavors and if you wish to remain in contact with me then I will gladly welcome it. If not that’s fine too.

I remember back in October when I said cheers to another year.. sadly as of now I will not be present for that second year anniversary, I do hope by then things have calmed. I hope by then that this region is prosperous. Some of you may be wondering why I’m leaving. It’s because I feel I can no longer serve this region. Tonight was a clear example of that for me. I know now that while I may have had some accomplishments in the past, now I effectively feel like I do nothing to truly help the region.

To The Emerald Union thank you so much for always being there for me. Always ready to talk whenever I needed you. Always just being a good friend. There is so much I could thank you for but I feel that it would take years for me to do it. You honestly serve as a role model for me. I really hope we can stay in contact after all this.

To Overlord67 I truly value the friendship that we have. Your levelheadedness and your leadership abilities are things I marvel. I truly truly do wish you the best and hope we can stay in contact after this as well.

To Malumynumen your poetic messages and funny character is something I will miss dearly. I truly enjoy your presence and I really do hope that your future is just as grand as your personality.

To Nova mervay/Mervay jeez what can I say that hasn’t already been said. I’ve known you for close to two years now and honestly you are one of my closest friends and most trustworthy allies on NS. I truly have valued the friendship we have forged and I truly admire the work you’ve done for this region.

To Xanathium You know I always did enjoy your presence around here Xan. Our constant IC rivalry was something I did indeed enjoy even if it got a bit heated on my side at times (for which I apologize...). I will miss you and I hope that everything goes well in life for you.

For those I didn’t leave a specific mention for do not worry. I have enjoyed each and every one of you in this region. Now I know these goodbyes might not be forever and honestly they may not even be necessary but I feel I needed to tell everyone how much I really do like them. Why it was everyone here that made me stay for so long. The friendships I’ve built and the times I’ve had here I won’t forget ever and I mean that sincerely.

Thank you all, and good night Union of Justice

      RUSSIAN AUTONOMY EXPERIMENT
      РУССКИЙ АВТОНОМНЫЙ ЭКСПЕРИМЕНТ | RUSSKIY AVTONOMNYY EKSPERIMENT

        ________

      | The Russian Empire, after much deliberation within the military, intelligence, and combined security forces, and after receiving much negative input from certain countries far to the west, has hereby announced that it will, for an amount of time, grant the city of Mecca a level of semi-autonomy within the Empire in order to determine if this method of governance is possibly acceptable in the future. Though most of the country's defense and intelligence forces are very much against it for reasons of national security, along with the majority of the Empire's population, the Empress herself, Her Majesty Sasha Evangeline Natalia Khabarov, has directly ordered that the Muslim holy city be granted semi-autonomy for a duration of 3 years, though this time may be cut short under certain circumstances.

      As such, the Russian military and some security forces will temporarily withdraw from the city to military bases nearby to allow for the city to properly be considered "semi-autonomous". As such, a constitution fully drafted by local parties without outside interference from any 3rd parties beyond the borders that make up the city of Mecca is expected to be created and legally authorized by the Russian government. After this time, the city will be in control, for the most part, of its defense, laws, and border security. It will, however, not be permitted to establish diplomatic ties with other nations for reasons of its location relative to the Russian Empire.

      At the time of this announcement, the Her Majesty Sasha has also invited the Islamic State to dispatch a representative to the Russian Empire for te first diplomatic meeting between the two countries. Despite the harsh words spoken by the Islamic State about the Russian Empire, the Empress insists she personally has no hard feelings and is willing to discuss whatever the Islamic State feels is of greatest importance. |

      RUSSIAN AUTONOMY EXPERIMENT
      РУССКИЙ АВТОНОМНЫЙ ЭКСПЕРИМЕНТ | RUSSKIY AVTONOMNYY EKSPERIMENT

        ________

      25 days later...

      | On the 25th day of the experiment sanctioned by Empress Sasha herself, the Russian military completely withdrew to military bases approximately 25 kilometers outside of Mecca's city borders. Security and border control was placed completely in the hands of local authorities. They were to be given the basic weaponry and equipment normally sanctioned by the Russian police forces and could be determined as "adequate for the job".

      In accordance with this continued experiment, a set of laws was permitted by the Russian government to be made by local authorities without Russian intervention. Most Russian influence was entirely removed from the area save for the still enforced requirement for the residents of the city to pay taxes to the Russian government like every other territory regardless of race or religion, from its Ukrainian territories all the way to Indonesia.

      Initial stages of the experiment were promising. Though there was an increase in crime, it was not yet large enough for the Empire to attribute it to local incompetence instead of just a temporary rise due to a change in leadership. Otherwise, activity proceeded as was projected by analysts from the Russian government.

      60 days later...

      Approximately 2 months following the beginning of the experiment, the city of Mecca's security was entirely in the hands of local forces, with travel into and out of the city regulated by local border control, along with the city's international airport regulated by the local government. All transport of packages of any sort into and out of the city no longer required a Russian stamp of approval. For all intents and purposes, the city was made completely independent.

      Of course, with independence comes a greater risk of crime, but this experiment was created in order to be as accurate as possible. Thus any rise in crime would be recorded to help determine the future of the semi-autonomous state in the Empire.

      Dhu al-Hijjah 11th, 1479 (June 14th, 2057). 12:00 PM. City of Mecca

      The Hajj of 2057 saw the largest pilgrimage to Mecca for decades, a staggering 4.2 million people, the largest since 2010. This was attributed to a variety of factors, chief among which being the higher average amount of money being earned around the world allowed for many Muslim families to afford the journey to the Holy City.

      Another more obvious reason was the ease of access into the city of Mecca following Russian military withdrawal from the area. Border security was, by default, more relaxed than Russia's much much more thorough border security. As such, the flow of people into the city was much quicker and much smoother with less people being turned away. News of this caused a massive number of people to go to the city to complete their pilgrimage.

      At mid day, as millions of people prayed, all was well. However, as little as 30 seconds after the clock struck 12:00, there was sudden chaos as a massive boom echoed through the city, enveloping most of the Great Mosque in smoke and dust. At the same time, the sounds of gunshots were heard elsewhere in the city and the mosque.

      Emergency medical services could not respond immediately due to the chaos and danger of the situation. Local military police were dispatched throughout the city with orders by the Mecca government to do as they needed to get rid of the perpetrators, several of which were shot and killed on sight. However, due to not having the equipment necessary to handle the situation, along with the massive stampede of people fleeing to get out of the city, progress to get rid of the belligerents was slow. Unfortunately, many of the roads leading out of the city had be rigged before hand with explosives, killing thousands and injuring many more.

      More importantly, the Russian military soon heard of the terrorist strikes and immediately dispatched soldiers into the city. These soldiers were far better equipped than local authorities, and so were much more capable of killing the terrorists. Still, casualties in the Grand Mosque mounted until the Russian military along with some support from local authorities. At this moment, the majority of the belligerents were killed, though the Russian Empire believes some to have escaped.

      The entire assault lasted a total of 2 days. Casualties are hard to calculate, but early estimates suggest the explosions, gun violence, stampede, and other murders by the terrorists have cause at least a total of 150,000 deaths, by far the most deadly act by terrorists ever commited in human history. And possibly more importantly, it also lead to the complete destruction of the Kaaba, a symbol of Islam, as well as a large part of the Grand Mosque.

      The Empress has stated that as a result of the attacks, there will never again be any semi autonomous regions allowed in the Empire, as she and most of the country blame the event on the incompetence of local independent authorities, relaxed border controls of the city, and the lack of the far more powerful and organized Russian defense forces in the immediate area.

      In other news, the attacks were claimed one week later by an as yet unknown terrorist cell, naming themselves as The Vergessene. This was the first time the organization has commited such an act and made itself known to the public, though the Russian government had been tracking it for months before the Mecca attacks. As of now, the Russian government has retaken control of Mecca and begun the business of assessing deaths, injuries, and property damage.

As it appears that this region is bordering on complete implosion, I will be discussing the future of our embassies together with the Senate. I hate to see this region go.

And we who loved the world must learn the language of absence: days foreshortened, empty rooms, the irrevocable distance between the goodbye and the letting go.

Following discussion with the Senate, we’ve decided that, due to the fact that this region is being abandoned, embassies are useless.

I just want to say, personally, that being here was interesting for me. I wouldn’t call it good, but it gave me the experience I need to run my region now. Thank you all for that. I am truly sad to watch this region lost.
