----World War Averted - Again!
Last week on July 14th, tensions in Rathnir had yet again reached a boiling point. In the days leading up to this point, for a multitude of reasons relations between the Imperial Archonate of Viodoxa and the Magisterium had increasingly soured. With the annexation of the U.F.K. and a strong new ally in the region, Bardonia seemed to have become much more interested in the politics of Sparwood. This, combined with the makeup of the coalition forming against the Magisterium aggressors which included historical rivals of Bardonia such as Viodoxa and the Union of Burgamerian Socialist Republics, was enough to draw the Empire into the fray.
“Bardonians, a storm approaches. A storm of war, the largest we have ever seen. Arm yourselves, for we shall prove to the world what Bardonia is truly made of!”
On July 13th, Yazov announced their resignation as Archon of Viodoxa. Due to a complex line of succession and the death of former Archon Numis McSpiegel by suicide, the infamous Loic I dem Spheniscidae rose to assume the title of Imperial Archon.
Within hours of this news being shared with the international community, Hub of Magisterium announced that “... the return of Loic has nullified any reason we have to take Viodoxa. We saw their leadership as weak, and I saw it better that the Magisterium takes their land rather than one of the other big nations. But now that their leadership has been replaced, we lack a reason to fight them.”
Although it has been speculated and is still unknown whether or not any extra deals took place behind closed doors, it can be said with certainty that the world breathed a gigantic sigh of relief thanks to the appointment of Imperial Archon Loic. As for now, the world lies in relative peace, and Viodoxa stands strong with its new ruler.
----Revival of Tossanism?
Neo Tossanism has widely been regarded as the ‘cultural’ religion of Ryzan. The religion hasn’t been widely practiced since the fall of the Second Tsardom but has always had a soft spot in the hearts of Ryzani throughout the years as a fun reminder of better times. Although the religion was declared “dead” by Canadian Toss himself, there is now a growing movement to revive the religion as a new wave of nationalist ideals spread.
