Era 2 History
Today on Thursday, February 1, 2018, the government has decided to continue with writing its history. Since the last entry of our national history, it had been some time. Since then, 
Dieselvania had made a significant amount of progress. We have continued to remain active in our region. We have also made another nation that we have made ties with, named Dieseloria.
There was also several more policies that were implemented into the government. Our population has reached over 500,000,000 and we have classified ourselves as Scientific Democratic States.
We rejoice as our nation reaches a new Era in history!

Today on Saturday, February 3, 2018, the government has decided that from now on we will be using the metric system. We hope that this will allow us to communicate easier and make us more intelligent. We have also been classified to Democratic Socialists but this is only temporary.
Installed policy: "Metricism"

Today on Friday, February 23, 2018, we have begun putting more money into our space program. We also have been keeping notes of what exactly we will be doing in a new factbook:
However, this isn't enough. We have began funding several missions to send more Dieselvanians into space. We plan on reaching the Moon within the next month. Looking at the math, this should be achievable, if only we had more qualified astronauts. We shall begin searching for the perfect candidates.
Entry Date: 23/2/18
Current Goals:
- - Put Dieselvanians on the Moon
- Observe more Space
Entry Date: 3/3/18
Current Goals:
- - Put Dieselvanians on the Moon
- Observe more Space
Process on making spacecraft has been very successful and seems to be moving very quickly. We did however had an accident last week with an engineer falling off of a raised platform onto a piece of sheet metal. She will be fine of course, as she is receiving amazing health care in the local hospital.
Entry Date: 21/3/18
Current Goals:
- - Observe more Space
- Put Dieselvanians on the Moon
- - Build Advanced Spacecraft
Our fearless crew has begun the second part of our rigorous training course to prepare them for the new spacecraft and the Moon. We still have yet to name the craft itself, though many ideas have been thrown around. After hiring many new robotic citizens that are well-equipped to construct the spacecraft, progress has substantially sped up. Based on current calculations and modifications that we seem may fit, we plan to finish in approximately 6-8 days.

D.A.C.O.: "All systems are in check, ready to proceed. How are you all feeling in there?"
Emergence: "Good, good. I think we're all ready."
D.A.C.O.: "Alright, proceeding to launch sequence."
Emergence: "This is it, we're finally going to do it."
D.A.C.O.: "Launch scheduled in T minus 60 seconds."
Emergence: "We're going to do it, for our country, for science."
D.A.C.O.: "T minus 30 seconds."
D.A.C.O.: "T minus 10 seconds. 9 - 8 - 7 - 6 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1. Launch initiated."
At that very moment Emergence was propelled into the atmosphere and beyond it. It was following the planned trajectory to land perfectly on the Moon. Millions upon millions of Dieselvanians were watching on their TV screens in their homes, anticipating the moment. As the spacecraft continued on its journey, those inside seemed to be having the times of their lives.
As it continued along the rest of the nation was in uproar, celebrating this wonderful moment in our history. All the while D.A.C.O. employees were feeling the same. It was only a matter of time before Emergence would land.
And after 3 hours, it finally happened. The spacecraft rotated in space in order to place down the landing gear on the Moon. Rockets fired with a blaze to decrease the velocity of the craft. The forces of inertia were intense inside. The craft swiftly approached the grey, bumpy ground. Within 20 seconds the velocity decreased by half. After 50 seconds the craft was reaching stable speeds. The ground was very close. The craft's velocity has been drastically slowed, and it was just prepared to land. It came closer, closer, and closer still. Then, it touched the ground. Emergence bounced slightly upon impact until finally stopping. It had landed perfectly.
The nation nearly screamed with joy over this historic moment. Transmissions between Emergence and D.A.C.O. became frequent, discussing the success. The astronauts prepared to walk outside. The door to the craft opened softly and smoothly, with air moving out into the void. The crew walked out.
The first to walk out was Jason Hyland, who stood there in amazement, staring into the blank sky riddled with white dots as far as the eye could see. His feet moved softly across the ground, with small puffs of dust kicking up from time to time. Finally he said, "We, our country, did this. We did this for the advancement of our race. For each and every one of us. For science."
The rest of the crew followed behind, walking in many directions to observe. The nation was nearly speechless over what had happened. Dieselvanians walked on the Moon, they had achieved something much bigger than themselves.
Entry Date: 4/4/18
Current Goals:
- - Put Dieselvanians on the Moon
The crew plans to return home in a week, loaded with a large amount of information, and honor. Their next current step is to set down a number of machines, ranging from plant growing centers, radar sensors, reflective surfaces, material generators, hyper-intense drills, and data collectors.
Entry Date: 5/4/18
Current Goals:
- - Observe more Space
On the research-focused side of things, the data collected will further advance our knowledge of the universe. A very detailed report came in about the composition of the Moon and the logistics of it. Not to mention the various things left on the surface, including our many rovers, plant growing centers, and other things. We plan to shine lasers toward the Moon so that they reflect off of the surfaces we put there, to investigate and formulate information about light. The information we will gain in the future after this trip will likely be tremendous.
Entry Date: 5/4/18
Current Goals:
- - Observe more Space
- Observe the Moon
More improvements have been made with our telescopes, now being able to look farther in the deepest of space. We've been able to see outside of our local group, and have even created entire 3D simulations of space. Not to mention all of the deep space probes that have been sent out. A whole new perspective has been formed of places beyond our world. Entire star systems and nearby galaxies within our visible grasp. It's only a matter of time before we can view it all closer.
Using the powers of nuclear fusion, our ships can move much faster through space, nearing a quarter of the speed of light. All of it has been unmanned, of course, but we can still reach the far depths of our solar system, and have explored and recorded our beautiful neighboring planets.
Entry Date: 18/5/18
Current Goals:
- - Observe the Moon
- Observe more Space
- Colonize the Moon
We plan on sending more people to live in these facilities for a while, using our newest nuclear-powered shuttle that can in fact reach slightly beyond a quarter of the speed of light. It will be a small while before we actually send people in it, but it should work perfectly and smoothly.
Entry Date: 6/6/18
Current Goals:
- - Observe more Space
- Colonize the Moon
Entry Date: 14/6/18
Current Goals:
- - Observe more Space
- Colonize the Moon
Questions have arose whether or not to use nuclear-powered shuttles to get to the Moon. Because of their speed, it would only take 4 seconds to reach the Moon, which is far faster than anything we'd ever done. If used we would likely only use it for quicker transportation of necessary items to the Moon, not people, yet.
Entry Date: 21/6/18
Current Goals:
- - Observe more Space
- Colonize the Moon
From gathering data using telescopes and the like, we have a very solid visual of our local group especially our galaxy, all of which is updated into our database as well as our 3D simulation which is available to the public. Our field of vision however obviously goes far, far beyond the reaches of our local group, however the areas too far out will be very unclear to see until we get better means of observation.
Entry Date: 29/6/18
Current Goals:
-
- Colonize the Moon
- Observe more Space
- - Observe the Local Group
- Observe farther beyond

Today on Sunday, May 20, 2018, it has been found that our nation ranks as a Level 13.8 civilization, using a commonly accepted scale. We've discovered that our technology is actually quite capable of much grander things, but we just haven't brought it to this level of greatness yet. In the future we'll make sure to continually improve upon our current technology.

Today on Thursday, June 7, 2018, our once previously known ally, 
Anarcanada, has declared a state of distrust with us. They recently claim to have taken some "laser guns for our own purposes" from us. This is wildly incorrect on a number of bases, one being that we just made the new prototypes today, and we've ensured there is no way for our advanced technology to reach a hell-hole of a country like that. They have also announced the creation of a new space station, titled "Icarus Station". This would've been of no concern to us, if only we hadn't spoke with members of the Anarcan government beforehand, including President Matthew Mahood, about them not creating space technology. We stated that we could help them with their entire space program, however they declined and went behind our backs, in order to create spacecraft designed to annoy our country.
In response to this, it has been declared that from this point forward, no Anarcan person shall ever be permitted to enter Dieselvania. All Anarcan immigrants will be declined at the border, and sent back to Anarcanada.
This may be a big step, but there is no doubt that our nation is more advanced than theirs.
Rejection of all Anarcan immigrants enacted
1,321,000,000 Population
Today on Friday, June 8, 2018, Anarcanada continually claims to have "advanced technology" that has been "reverse-engineered" from ours. We are still confirming they have not, and that any claims of new technology such as plasma arm-cannons are false. These false reports have been upsetting those in the Dieselvanian government, along with most of our citizens. We plan on speaking with their leader and discuss what is happening.
After speaking with higher-level officials of Anarcanada, we have formed a treaty that we suppose will fix all of the issues we have been having between us.
Section I:
As long as all notions enacted by this treaty remain constant in either nation they pertain to, neither Anarcanada, Dieselvania, nor Drk Knt will be permitted to declare war, or commit acts of war or violence on each other.
- 1. In the event that it is discovered one or any of these nations do something that goes against anything listed in this treaty, war can be declared at a moment's notice. Each nation in fact has the obligation to do so if another becomes unloyal to the treaty.
2. If any nation attempts to declare war on another while nothing within the treaty has been broken, the other side has full rights to defend themselves and attack the other.
Section II:
No nation is permitted to take technology, information, or insight that has clearly been stolen, boot-legged, or bought illegally from the government of another without that nation's permission.
- 1. This includes cases in which technology is brought illegally from another country, is stolen from another country, is made illegally in a country, is stolen from a country, or is otherwise confiscated by the government of the nation that the product is trying to be retrieved from.
Section III:
Anarcanada and Drk Knt shall be permitted to report their technological advancements to Dieselvania, using as much detail as possible so that Dieselvania can form an idea of happenings in both nations.
- 1. With every big technology update, they should include how they got the materials, somewhat on how they made it, and future plans with the technology.
2. Anarcanada and Drk Knt can also speak of future technological plans, in order to alert Dieselvania and interest them, which could lead to collaborative efforts between them to make advancements happen faster.
Section IV:
Dieselvania has a right to periodically watch over any progress in Anarcanada and Drk Knt that intrigues them, discuss with both whether or not the actions they are taking is benefiting everyone in this situation, and genuinely help with anything they figure needs guidance.
- 1. This includes fields of information technology, standard technology, space technology, modern-day technology, etc. Any other type that seems quite unusual should be discussed in order to further understand the situation.
2. Dieselvania can also determine if the events in Anarcanada or Drk Knt are truly good ones. If anything seems potentially harming to life or the universe in general, Dieselvania can suggest that either nation should focus less on that subject, and maybe find better solutions. If actions become too unstable in the eyes of Dieselvania, they have a right to intervene and possibly stop procedures occurring in Anarcanada or Drk Knt in the way they seem fit.
3. Dieselvania can also personally fund Anarcanada and Drk Knt to support projects or schemes that they are interested in, and may also suggest that this specific piece/research pertaining to technology be studied in their country. If said piece/research is important enough in the eyes of Dieselvania, they may intervene slightly and attempt to research it on their own using anything gained.
4. Anarcanada and Drk Knt shall be able to suggest projects in Dieselvania that they are interested in, but doesn't have the funding for. If accepted, both parties will be obliged to work cooperatively and complete the project for the glory of both nations.
Section V:
In terms of space technology, space travel and exploration, space observation, and space research, all countries will be free to operate their own programs with helpful assistance from the other if so chosen.
- 1. All nations should report plans of such doings, in order to keep communication open and to be able to think about what the other is currently doing in terms of their space program.
2. As stated before, nations can both fund and ask for funding of the other nation, though it is not required. If it is of great importance, Dieselvania will vote as to what will be done next on whether to intervene or not.
3. Nations should furthermore keep track of all spacecraft and projects they have currently, and this should be accessible to the others’ nations. If something is done that another nation does not like, they have the right to suggest they should focus on something else, and fnd better solutions. If actions become to unstable in the eyes of Dieselvania, they have a right to intervene slightly and possible stop procedures occurring in Anarcanada or Drk Knt in the way they seem ft. They may also remove certain projects from said space program that are already functioning.
4. Anarcanada and Drk Knt also has the right to attempting to halt Dieselvania's progress with this certain type of technology, however it should be diplomatic at frst and have great consideration, as Dieselvania can do the same.
Section VI:
With the production of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD's), they will only be made to defend against other outside countries, and should not be moved in between Anarcanada, Dieselvania, and Drk Knt.
- 1. All countries are free to manufacture WMD's as they choose but at a sensible rate. If either country suspects/detects something wrong, they have the right to discuss safer matters.
2. All countries have the right to request support with making said WMD's, however it is not encouraged as the weapons should not fow between countries too often. If it is of great importance, all are able to discuss and enact diplomatic measures, and intervene and defend if needed.
Section VII:
Any changes that are to be made with this treaty can be proposed from any nation. However, said change must be approved by all sides, and if not a reason must be applied.
With the approval of this treaty comes a great new era between Anarcanada, Dieselvania, and Drk knt involving respect, cooperation, and most of all, peace.
Approved by:
Dieselvania

Today on Wednesday, June 20, 2018, after reading various reports from Anarcanada, we've become quite confused. After a bit of investigation it has been found that a lot of the lead scientists and report-makers there have gotten quite confused with time, likely from sleep deprivation or something else. Either way, we are going to help by providing many of these workers with the proper education needed to do their jobs. Otherwise they will continue to "complete" tasks too quickly, meaning the quality will be very bad. This has been shown as well, seeing as a lot of the newer technology they are forming are very bad in quality, have little or no research done about them, and are failing very quickly after their creation. Their expectations have become too high for their own good, and they're trying to accomplish things with such little time with no probable outcomes with their current state. Nonetheless, we must help our ally in this time.

Upon further investigation it has been revealed that the cause of this strange time anomaly in Anarcanada was actually a test fire of a quantum wave made by our antimatter experiments. It must have caused some sort of time dilation in the country, though things have started to clear up now. In the future we've made sure that nothing like this happens again, by monitoring the directions that these waves move in.
