Imperial Broadcasting Service

The Imperial Broadcasting Service or the IBS is the main broadcasting news service of the Aurlûnor Velande. Alongside Dashwell Broadcasting, the Imperial Broadcasting Service is the second founded radio service. 
The Imperial Broadcasting Service is state-owned, with the Velereth herself addressing things on the radio. Other government officials such as Se-khem-ka and Froyobot Jones runs their own respective stations. The Imperial Broadcasting Service also runs the newspaper known as the Imperial Newspaper, which is currently run by Nori, and costs 15 Lûns to purchase. An educational radio run by Aldara Ellan was hosted until her resignation from Ministry of Education in 939ACA.
== History ==
The Imperial Broadcasting Service was established in the year 931ACA as a better way for the citizens of the Velande following the announcement of then Apollo Radio coming back to Rathnir. The Velande would begin as a test service to sync Apollo Radio's Shack with the then small IBS shack that existed within Lhûmar's northern forest. The Imperial Broadcasting Service would go on to produce local media such as covering state-sponsored local news and provided various amounts of music stations. A partnership between Apollo Radio and the IBS would be struck in later 933ACA, and a joint Apollo-IBS broadcasting of touring Lhûmar was shot, with the Velereth, Sareariel Lelya-Earcala and Herb Dashwell. The two would become close friends ever since the deal was struck, with Apollo Radio becoming a government approved radio station to be broadcasted throughout the nation, however, some parts of the broadcasting was adjusted to mind laws that were in the country, such as advertising different religions and open forums against the Velereth.
The decline of Apollo Radio in 940ACA, which merged into Dashwell Broadcasting, saw the Imperial Broadcasting Service decline as well. However, the Imperial Broadcasting Service has begun to expand into multiple other venues. Today, the Imperial Broadcasting Service currently only serves two regions in the world, which is the Velande proper and in Ryzan.
