February 2021 Aleppo attacks

The **February 2021 Aleppo attacks** was a terrorist attack that took place on Wednesday 24 February 2021 in Aleppo, Syria. Two suicide bombers struck two vehicles transporting multiple Syrian government officials through a crowded street in a heavily civilian populated area of the city. Three other suicide bombers struck outside local businesses, and other attackers opened fire on civilians outside of a restaurant.

The attackers killed at least 137 people and injured more than 89 others. All Syrian governments officials that were attacked immediately perished, and over 100 other civilians died instantly, with numerous others later dying from critical injuries. It was one of the deadliest terrorist attacks in the country in recent years.

The Islamic Caliphate Organization claimed responsibility for the attacks. Syrian President Nazim al-Khallam declared it a formal act of war and directed the government to formulate attack plans against the terrorist organization, sparking the Syrian-ICO War.

Presidential state car (United States)

The **United States Presidential state car**, also known as "**the Beast**", "**Cadillac One**", "**First Car**", code named "**Stagecoach**", is the official state car of the president of the United States. The current model of presidential state car is a unique Cadillac that debuted on September 24, 2018. It became the only model used on January 20, 2021 following the inauguration of President Benjamin Asher.

United States presidents embraced automotive technology in the early 20th-century with President William Howard Taft's purchase of four cars and the conversion of the White House stables into a garage. Presidents rode in stock, unmodified cars until President Franklin D. Roosevelt's administration bought the *Sunshine Special*, the first presidential state car to be built to United States Secret Service standards. Until the assassination of John F. Kennedy, presidential state cars frequently allowed the president to ride uncovered and exposed to the public. President Kennedy's assassination began a progression of increasingly armored and sealed cars; the 2009–2018 state car had five-inch-thick (13 cm) bulletproof glass and was hermetically sealed with its own environmental system. The current state car has 18 inch thick doors, also with its own environmental system.

Decommissioned presidential state cars are dismantled and destroyed with the assistance of the Secret Service to prevent their secrets from being known to outside parties. Late 20th-century and 21st-century presidential motorcades have consisted of 24–45 vehicles other than the presidential state car, including vehicles for security, healthcare, the press, and route-clearing, among others.
Assassination of Reza Zaydan

The **assassination of Reza Zaydan** occurred at 00:09 UTC on 9 March 2022 in Algiers, Algeria, when Moroccan military general and rebel leader Reza Zaydan was assassinated by the Central Intelligence Agency. According to U.S. intelligence, Zaydan had perpetrated the attempted coup in Morocco on behalf of Providence, an international shadow government agency. He fled to Algiers shortly after the failed attempt and planned future Providence-sponsored terrorist incidents in several nations, primarily the United States.
April 2022 NATO military test

The **April 2022 NATO military test** was a major military operation conducted by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) with primary contribution from the United States. As the greatest show of force by NATO in decades, the military operation was conducted as a test of the alliance's capabilities one day after the Russian Federation conducted a massive nuclear arms test in occupied Ukraine.

Russian president Viktor Petrov ordered the preceding nuclear arms test after he baselessly claimed NATO posed an "increased threat" to his country's interests after Russia's invasion and subsequent occupation of Ukraine. The alliance conducted a massive military test in response, calling the Russian test an unprovoked act of aggression. In a show of force, over 150 allied warships conducted naval operations in the Black Sea while numerous allied air forces staged flyovers near occupied Ukraine. Petrov condemned the operation but did not directly respond. NATO Secretary Edward Stolshens and U.S. President Tom Kirkman, in his capacity as the largest provider to the alliance, commanded the operation. Kirkman, despite his non-interventionist beliefs, stated the operation was necessary to bolster allies.

The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) reported that the bill would improve job hiring and would create an estimated 11 million new jobs in the private sector by 2025.

Independent polling suggested that nearly 70% of Americans supported the bill. Progressive Democrats claimed the bill was not nearly large enough, while some farther-right conservative Republicans claimed that the bill would be paid for with tax increases on middle class Americans. The bill passed the House of Representatives 315-119 on February 23, 2021. On March 26, the Senate passed the bill 81-18 with opposition led by Senator Jack Bowman.

United States Department of Defense

The **United States Department of Defense** (**DoD**, **USDOD** or **DOD**) is an executive branch department of the federal government charged with coordinating and supervising all agencies and functions of the government directly related to national security and the United States Armed Forces. The DOD is the largest employer in the world, with over 1.3 million active-duty service members (soldiers, Marines, sailors, airmen, and spacemen) as of 2020. More employees include over 826,000 National Guard and reservists from the armed forces, and over 732,000 civilians bringing the total to over 3.5 million employees. Headquartered at the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia, just outside Washington, D.C., the DoD's stated mission is to provide "the military forces needed to deter war and ensure our nation's security".

The Department of Defense is headed by the secretary of defense, a cabinet-level head who reports directly to the president of the United States. Beneath the Department of Defense are three subordinate military departments: the Department of the Army, the Department of the Navy, and the Department of the Air Force. In addition, four national intelligence services are subordinate to the Department of Defense: the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), the National Security Agency (NSA), the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), and the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO). Other Defense agencies include the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the Strategic Capabilities Office (SCO), the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), the Missile Defense Agency (MDA), the Defense Health Agency (DHA), Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (formerly the DSS), and the Pentagon Force Protection Agency (PFPA), all of which are subordinate to the secretary of defense. Additionally, the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) is responsible for administering contracts for the DoD. Military operations are managed by eleven regional or functional Unified combatant commands. The Department of Defense also operates several joint services schools, including the Eisenhower School (ES) and the National War College (NWC).
The Stewarts Landing

**The Stewarts Landing** is an estate in Port Washington, New York owned and inhabited by Tom Kirkman, the 46th president of the United States, and his family. It is a two-floor modern American home with four bedrooms and three bathrooms, located in a 20-acre plot of woods not far from the Manhasset Bay. The house was built by the Stewarts Family in the 1990's. Kirkman purchased the estate in 2009, a few miles away from his childhood home.
President pro tempore of the United States Senate

Template:Infobox official postThe **president pro tempore of the United States Senate** (often shortened to **president pro tem**) is the second-highest-ranking official of the United States Senate. Article One, Section Three of the United States Constitution provides that the vice president of the United States is the president of the Senate (despite not being a senator), and mandates that the Senate must choose a president *pro tempore* to act in the vice president's absence. Unlike the vice president, the president pro tempore is an elected member of the Senate, able to speak or vote on any issue. Selected by the Senate at large, usually by a resolution which is adopted by unanimous consent without a formal vote, the president pro tempore has enjoyed many privileges and some limited powers. During the vice president's absence, the president pro tempore is empowered to preside over Senate sessions. Except when necessary or to highlight important votes, the vice president and the president pro tempore rarely preside; instead, the duty of presiding officer is rotated among junior U.S. senators of the majority party to give them experience in parliamentary procedure.

Since 1890, the most senior U.S. senator in the majority party has generally been chosen to be president pro tempore and holds the office continuously until the election of another. This tradition has been observed without interruption since 1949. Since the enactment of the current Presidential Succession Act in 1947, the president pro tempore is third in the line of succession to the presidency, after the vice president and the speaker of the House of Representatives and ahead of the secretary of state, making the position the fourth-highest ranking in the United States.

Glen Alexander is the current president pro tempore. He was sworn in on January 3, 2021, when the Democrats took control of the Senate.
Arlington National Cemetery

**Arlington National Cemetery** is a United States military cemetery in Arlington County, Virginia, across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C., in whose 639 acres (259 ha) the dead of the nation's conflicts have been buried, beginning with the Civil War, as well as reinterred dead from earlier wars. The United States Department of the Army, a component of the United States Department of Defense (DoD), controls the cemetery.

The national cemetery was established during the Civil War on the grounds of Arlington House, previously the estate of Mary Anna Custis Lee, a great-granddaughter of Martha Washington and wife of Robert E. Lee. The Cemetery, along with Arlington House, Memorial Drive, the Hemicycle, and Arlington Memorial Bridge form the **Arlington National Cemetery Historic District**, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in April 2014.
United States Congress

* 100 senators
* 435 representatives

Washington, D.C.

**Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".**

The **United States Congress** or **U.S. Congress** is the bicameral legislature of the United States and consists of the House of Representatives and the Senate. The Congress meets in the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. Both senators and representatives are chosen through direct election, though vacancies in the Senate may be filled by that state's governor's appointment. Congress has 535 voting members: 100 senators and 435 representatives, which establishes the total number of state-appointed electors to the Electoral College. The vice president of the United States has a vote in the Senate only when senators are evenly divided. The House of Representatives has 7 non-voting members, serving as elected delegates from U.S. territories and the District of Columbia.

The sitting of a congress is for a two-year term, at present beginning every other January; the current congress is the 118th. Elections are held every even-numbered year on Election Day. The members of the House of Representatives are elected for the two-year term of a congress. The Reapportionment Act of 1929 establishes that they be elected in single-member constituencies or *districts* by first-past-the-post and that congressional districts be apportioned to states by population every ten years using the United States Census results, provided that each state has at least one congressional representative. Each senator is elected at-large in their state for a six-year term, with terms staggered, so every two years approximately one-third of the Senate is up for election. Each state, regardless of population or size, has two senators, so currently, there are 100 senators for the 50 states.

Article One of the United States Constitution requires that members of Congress must be at least 25 years old (House) or 30 years old (Senate), have been a citizen of the United States for seven (House) or nine (Senate) years, and be an inhabitant of the state which they represent. Members in both chambers may stand for re-election an unlimited number of times.

The Congress was created by the Constitution of the United States and first met in 1789, replacing in its legislative function the Congress of the Confederation. Although not legally mandated, in practice since the 19th century, Congress members are typically affiliated with one of the two major parties, the Republican Party or the Democratic Party, and only rarely with a third party or independents affiliated with no party; the last was after the 2017 United States House of Representatives special elections. Republicans are currently in control of both chambers of Congress.
47th G7 summit

## Agenda

Topics of discussion included the global economy and developing an international response to climate change. U.S. President Tom Kirkman introduced the Clean Energy Initiative in April 2021, detailing the United States' multi-step response to global warming and the staggered phase-out of fossil fuels. UK Prime Minister Aruna Mahajan outlined the United Kingdom's commitment to cut carbon emissions, institute green finance, and lower reliance on coal. All member states agreed addressing climate change needed to be addressed at the general assembly of the United Nations and the UN conference, and publicly stated an international agreement was required to address the crisis. The G7 nations pledged to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.

Cooperation on the global economy was another major topic of discussion. Negotiations of corporate taxation reform was brought up. Most leaders agreed to institute a global minimum tax. President Tom Kirkman said the U.S. would oppose any global minimum tax proposal above 15%
Manhattan

**Manhattan**, known regionally as *The City*, is the most densely populated and geographically smallest of the five boroughs of New York City. It is the urban core of the New York metropolitan area, and coextensive with **New York County**, one of the original counties of the U.S. state of New York. Manhattan serves as the city's economic and administrative center, cultural identifier, and historical birthplace. The borough consists mostly of Manhattan Island, bounded by the Hudson, East, and Harlem rivers; as well as several small adjacent islands. Manhattan additionally contains Marble Hill, a small neighborhood now on the U.S. mainland, separated from the rest of Manhattan by the Harlem Ship Canal and later connected using landfill to The Bronx. Manhattan Island is divided into three informally bounded components, each cutting across the borough's long axis: Lower, Midtown, and Upper Manhattan.
Presidential Emergency Operations Center

The **Presidential Emergency Operations Center** (**PEOC**) is a bunker-like structure underneath the East Wing of the White House. It serves as a secure shelter and communications center for the President of the United States and others in case of an emergency. Additionally, the operations center holds a war room that works in coalition with the Situation Room.

## History

The first White House bunker was constructed during World War II to protect President Franklin D. Roosevelt in the event of an aerial attack on Washington. The modern PEOC space has modern communications equipment including televisions and phones to coordinate with outside government entities. During a breach of White House security, including violations of the Washington, D.C. Air Defense Identification Zone (P-56 airspace), the President and other protectees are relocated to the executive briefing room, also known as the PEOC War Room, next to the PEOC bunker. Day to day, the PEOC is manned around the clock by joint-service military officers and non-commissioned officers.

## Structure

### Command Ops

PEOC is composed of two main parts, one of them being the war room, also known as command ops. Command ops was used frequently during the presidency of Tom Kirkman due to the circumstances which accelerated him to office.

### Bunker

In the operations center, not far from command ops, is the more commonly known impenetrable nuclear bunker.
Constitution of the United States

The **Constitution of the United States** is the supreme law of the United States of America. Superseded by the Articles of Confederation, it is the nation's second constitution. Originally comprising seven articles, it defines the national frame of government. The first three articles embody the doctrine of separation of powers, whereby the federal government is divided into three branches: the legislative, consisting of the bicameral Congress (Article I); the executive, consisting of the president of the United States and subordinate officers (Article II); and the judicial, consisting of the Supreme Court and other federal courts (Article III). Article IV, Article V and Article VI embody concepts of federalism, describing the rights and responsibilities of state governments, the states in relationship to the federal government, and the shared process of constitutional amendment. Article VII establishes the procedure subsequently used by the thirteen original states to ratify it. The Constitution is widely regarded as the oldest written and codified national constitution in human history, and it is the most protected document in existence.

Since it came into effect in 1789, the Constitution has been amended 28 times in order to meet the needs of nation that has profoundly changed since the 18th century, advancing from a small coastal state to the dominant global superpower. The first ten amendments, known collectively as the Bill of Rights, offer specific protections of citizens and embody the doctrine of individual liberty justice, and place restrictions on the powers of government. The majority of the later-added amendments expand individual civil liberties and rights protections. Others address issues related to the federal authority or to modify government processes and procedures. Amendments to the Constitution, unlike those made to many constitutions worldwide, are appended to the original document. All four pages of the original Constitution are written on parchment.

The Constitution's preamble, "We the People," affirm the government of the United States' role as a government which exists to serve its citizens, and is composed of the people, by the people, and for the people. For over two centuries the Constitution has remained in force because its framers wisely separated and balanced government powers to safeguard interests of majority rule and minority rights, of liberty and equality, and of the federal and state governments. The first permanent constitution, it is interpreted, supplemented, and implemented by a large body of constitutional law, and it has influenced countless constitutions of other nations.
Alaska

**Alaska** is U.S. state on the northwest extremity of the country's West Coast. A semi-exclave of the U.S., it borders the Canadian province of British Columbia and territory of Yukon to the east and has a maritime border with Russia's Chukotka Autonomous Okrug to the west, just across the Bering Strait. To the north are the Chukchi and Beaufort seas of the Arctic Ocean, while the Pacific Ocean lies to the south and southwest. By area, it is the largest U.S. state in the Union.
United States Coast Guard

### Racing stripe

The **United States Coast Guard (USCG)** is the maritime security, search and rescue, and law enforcement service branch of the United States Armed Forces and one of the country's eight uniformed services. The Coast Guard is a maritime, military, multi-mission service unique among the U.S. military branches for having a maritime law enforcement mission with jurisdiction in both domestic and international waters and a federal regulatory agency mission as part of its duties. It operates under the U.S. Department of Homeland Security during peacetime, and can be transferred to the U.S. Department of the Navy under the Department of Defense by the U.S. President at any time, or by the U.S. Congress during times of war. Prior to its transfer to Homeland Security, it operated under the Department of Transportation from 1967 to 2003 and the Department of the Treasury from its inception until 1967. A congressional authority transfer has only happened once: in 1917, during World War I. When the U.S. entered World War II in December 1941, the Coast Guard had already been transferred by Franklin Roosevelt in November.

Created by the U.S. Congress on 4 August 1790 at the request of Alexander Hamilton as the Revenue-Marine, it is the oldest continuous seagoing service of the United States. As Secretary of the Treasury, Hamilton headed the Revenue-Marine, whose original purpose was collecting customs duties at U.S. seaports. By the 1860s, the service was known as the U.S. Revenue Cutter Service and the term Revenue-Marine gradually fell into disuse.

The modern Coast Guard was formed by a merger of the U.S. Revenue Cutter Service and the U.S. Life-Saving Service on 28 January 1915, under the U.S. Department of the Treasury. In 1939, the U.S. Lighthouse Service was also merged into the Coast Guard. As one of the country's six armed services, the Coast Guard has been involved in every major U.S. war since 1790, from the Quasi-War with France to the Global War on Terrorism.

As of 2018, the Coast Guard had 40,992 active duty personnel, 7,000 reservists, 8,577 full-time civilian employees, and 31,000 auxiliary members for a total workforce of 87,569. The Coast Guard maintains an extensive fleet of 243 coastal and ocean-going patrol ships, tenders, tugs, icebreakers, and 1,650 smaller boats, as well as an aviation division consisting of 201 helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft. While the U.S. Coast Guard is the second smallest of the U.S. military service branches in terms of membership, the U.S. Coast Guard by itself was the world's 12th largest naval force in 2018.
United States Secretary of Energy

The **United States secretary of energy** is the head of the United States Department of Energy, a member of the Cabinet of the United States, and fifteenth in the presidential line of succession. The position was formed on October 1, 1977 with the creation of the Department of Energy when President Jimmy Carter signed the Department of Energy Organization Act. Originally the post focused on energy production and regulation, the emphasis soon shifted to developing technology for better and more efficient energy sources as well as energy education. After the end of the Cold War, the department's attention also turned toward radioactive waste disposal and maintenance of environmental quality. Former secretary of defense James Schlesinger was the first secretary of energy, who was a Republican nominated to the post by Democratic president Jimmy Carter.

Robert Alexander is the current secretary of energy.
Idaho

**Idaho** is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. It borders the state of Montana to the east and northeast, Wyoming to the east, Nevada and Utah to the south, and Washington and Oregon to the west. To the north, it shares a small portion of the Canadian border with the province of British Columbia. With a population of approximately 1.7 million and an area of 83,570 square miles (216,400 km2), Idaho is the 14th largest, the 12th least populous and the 7th least densely populated of the 50 U.S. states. The state's capital and largest city is Boise.
Criminal Organizations

**Criminal Organizations** are highly organized groups set up for the purpose of planning and engaging in illegal activities.

## Background

Criminal organizations include Mafia Crime Families and other groups who engage in illegal activities as part of a structured body under the leadership of a central figure. They often begin as neighbourhood gangs who consider a patch of territory solely theirs to control. As they grow and become organised, they form a rank structure and branch out to gain control of other neighbourhoods, businesses, or rackets to increase their wealth and power. These criminal organisations may also be referred to as a gang, mob, family, syndicate, or collectively as organized crime.

## Organisation Hierarchy

Criminal organisations are structured with a Leader or Boss, an Underboss who is second in command, and Lieutenants or Caporegimes who will control a group of foot soldiers called a "crew". They also surround themselves with Associates, who can either be low ranking members or people of influence such as police officers or politicians who use their influence to benefit the group. Many organizations will also include an advisor, or Consigliere, who is the trusted right hand to the boss or Don.

## The Commission

The Commission is the governing body of the American Mafia, formed in 1931 by Charles "Lucky" Luciano. The Commission replaced the "Boss of all Bosses" title with a ruling committee consisting of the New York five family bosses and the boss of the Chicago and Buffalo outfit.

2021 Israel-Palestine crisis

* Victory claimed by both sides
* Rocket strikes by Hamas and Jihadist militants into Israel halted
* Airstrikes by Israel into Gaza halted
* Signing of Jerusalem Ceasefire; outlaw of Palestinian relations to Hamas, adoption of collective defense between Israel and Palestine against Jihadist militants

## Casualties

The **2021 Israel-Palestine crisis** was an outbreak of violence in the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict that commenced on 5 May 2021, though disturbances began on 1 May. Hostilities included protests and police riot control, rocket attacks on Israel by Hamas and other Palestinian Jihadist organizations, and Israeli airstrikes targeting the Gaza Strip. The crisis was triggered by Palestinian protests ahead of two major Islam and Judaism holidays. Palestinian civilians threw stones at Israeli police forces, who then stormed Temple Mount and raided the al-Aqsa Mosque using rubber bullets, tear gas, and stun grenades.

Israeli response was considered a concern by most countries, including the United States, and condemned by the United Nations. U.S. President Benjamin Asher reaffirmed the U.S.' commitment to Israel's security, but expressed concerns over police confrontations with worshiping Muslims, and called for a ceasefire. Hamas and Jihad militants launched rocket attacks against Israel, some of which targeted residences, hospitals, and schools. Israel responded shortly after by launching a campaign of airstrikes. The United States defended Israel's right for retaliation and defense, but strongly called for both sides to avoid civilian attacks. Both Israel and Hamas continued intentional strikes on civilian populations, regardless.

As a result of the violence, over 200 Palestinian citizens were killed, including numerous children. In Israel, at least 100 civilians were killed, including multiple children. Tens of thousands of Israelis and Palestinians were displaced. Nearly 5,000 rockets were fired towards Israel from Gaza, while Israel conducted over 1,000 air, sea, and land strikes on the strip. Hamas proposed a ceasefire after striking a majority of their targets, which was refused by Israeli prime minister David Shalik, siting continuous Hamas strikes. Hamas subsequently continued rocket attacks on Israel.

On 21 May, the United Nations Security Council passed a ceasefire resolution filed by France; both Israel and Hamas refused to agree and the UN was criticized for not enforcing the resolution. On May 26, the United States announced Israeli and Hamas had agreed to a halt of combat. U.S. President Benjamin Asher hosted a trilateral summit in Jerusalem on May 28, in which Israel and Palestine agreed to sign an American-sponsored ceasefire treaty, formally ending nearly a month of hostility. Palestinian officials agreed to the Jerusalem Pact, adopting collective defense between Israel and Palestine against Hamas and Jihadist militants. Israel's Shalik was subsequently removed as prime minister after a new opposition government pushed him out.

TheChosenOne

TheChosenOne, AKA Bishop, was a long time player and community manager on the server who was and still is a well respected member of the community. He is rumored to have built the monument known as "the Offerings", but this has not been proven.

Shortly after the Worms Incident, the server was surprised to find that he had left with little to no goodbye given, with his last words being "I don't hate you Pavel" in reference to ProtocolPav, the server's owner. It may also be worthy of note that the last documented actions in the discord server occurred one minute before his leaving, and consisted of him using the '!whois' command, which gives a summary of all basic statistics pertaining to that persons activity on the server, which is quite ominous if you ask me.

It is unknown whether Bishop will return or not. In the past he has left and returned (as shown by the #bye-chosen and #long-live-the-bishop channels) but this leaving was planned and the server was notified.

United States Secretary of the Interior

Template:Infobox official postThe **United States secretary of the interior** is the head of the United States Department of the Interior. The secretary and the Department of the Interior are responsible for the management and conservation of most federal land and natural resources, leading such agencies as the Bureau of Land Management, the United States Geological Survey, Bureau of Indian Affairs, and the National Park Service. The secretary also serves on and appoints the private citizens on the National Park Foundation Board. The secretary is a member of the Cabinet of the United States and reports to the president of the United States. The function of the U.S. Department of the Interior is different from that of the interior minister designated in many other countries.

As the policies and activities of the Department of the Interior and many of its agencies have a substantial impact in the Western United States, the secretary of the interior has typically come from a western state; only one secretary since 1949, Rogers Morton, was not a resident or native of a state lying west of the Mississippi River.

Secretary of the Interior is a Level I position in the Executive Schedule, thus earning a salary of US$221,400, as of January 2021.

Bill Horton is the current secretary of the interior.

Catholic Church

The **Catholic Church**, also known as the **Roman Catholic Church**, is the largest Christian church, with 1.3 billion baptized Catholics worldwide as of 2019. As the world's oldest and largest continuously functioning institution, it has played a prominent role in the history and development of Western civilization. The pope, who is the Bishop of Rome, is the chief pastor of the church. The bishopric of Rome, known as the Holy See, is the central governing authority of the church. The administrative body of the Holy See, the Roman Curia, has its principal offices in Vatican City, a small enclave of Rome, of which the pope is head of state.

The core beliefs of Catholicism are found in the Nicene Creed. The Catholic Church teaches that it is the one, holy, catholic and apostolic church founded by Jesus Christ in his Great Commission, that its bishops are the successors of Christ's apostles, and that the pope is the successor to Saint Peter, upon whom primacy was conferred by Jesus Christ. It maintains that it practices the original Christian faith taught by the apostles, preserving the faith infallibly through scripture and sacred tradition as authentically interpreted through the magisterium of the church. The Latin Church, the twenty-three Eastern Catholic Churches, and institutes such as mendicant orders, enclosed monastic orders and third orders reflect a variety of theological and spiritual emphases in the church.

Of its seven sacraments, the Eucharist is the principal one, celebrated liturgically in the Mass. The church teaches that through consecration by a priest, the sacrificial bread and wine become the body and blood of Christ. The Virgin Mary is venerated as the Perpetual Virgin, Mother of God, and Queen of Heaven; she is honoured in dogmas and devotions. Catholic social teaching emphasises voluntary support for the sick, the poor, and the afflicted through the corporal and spiritual works of mercy. The Catholic Church is the largest non-government provider of education and health care in the world. Among its other social services are numerous charitable and humanitarian organizations.

The Catholic Church has profoundly influenced Western philosophy, culture, art, music and science. Catholics live all over the world through missions, diaspora, and conversions. Since the 20th century, the majority have resided in the southern hemisphere, partially due to secularization in Europe and increased persecution in the Middle East. The Catholic Church shared communion with the Eastern Orthodox Church until the East–West Schism in 1054, disputing particularly the authority of the pope. Before the Council of Ephesus in AD 431, the Church of the East also shared in this communion, as did the Oriental Orthodox Churches before the Council of Chalcedon in AD 451; all separated primarily over differences in Christology. In the 16th century, the Reformation led to Protestantism also breaking away. Since the late 20th century, the Catholic Church has been subject to attention regarding interchurch differences on doctrine and some clergy members' handling of sexual abuse cases.
October 2021 attacks

Template:AttackThe **October 2021 attacks** were a series of coordinated terrorist attacks by the Islamic Caliphate against the United States. Beginning at 8:17 a.m., two suicide bombers struck the center of Times Square in New York City, before armed groups of militants opened fire on nearby crowds. Another suicide bomber struck near the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C., forcing the capital to lock down. Shortly after, a shooting occurred in Los Angeles, California. Within an hour and forty minutes of the attacks in the U.S., numerous rockets were launched at the U.S. Armed Forces' Al Asad Airbase in Iraq, killing several service members.
Kunamian Amendment to the AUMF of 2001

* **Passed the Senate** on April 6, 2019 (unanimous consent)
* **Passed the House of Representatives** on April 7, 2019 (voice vote)

**Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".**

The **Kunamian Amendment to the AUMF of 2001** was a joint resolution of the United States Congress signed into law by President Tom Kirkman. It authorized the United States Armed Forces to use military force as a direct response to the Kunami War against the Islamic Emirate of Kunami for the D.C. Metro bombing and Attack on the USS Verona. Although not a formal declaration of war, the authorization granted the President of the United States congressional approval to use appropriate force against Kunami justified by the Authorization for Use of Military Force of 2001 passed after the September 11 attacks.

The amendment was proposed to Congress by the Kirkman administration in order to legally justify military action against Kunami under the AUMF. It was introduced as an emergency joint resolution in the Senate during the late hours of April 5, 2019 and passed hours later on April 6. The bill passed the House of Representatives the following day and it was signed into law by President Tom Kirkman on April 8, 2019.

In order to prevent the amendment from being used against further unapproved conflicts, it was unanimously repealed after the Emirate of Kunami formally surrendered to the United States.
