Adriatican Islands and Turkiye 1st - The Greek and Turkish Governments - Η ελληνική και τουρκική κυβέρνηση!

| RECONCILING THE RIVALRY, ATHENS, GREECE, SOUTHERN BALKANS: | ΣΥΜΦΙΛΊΩΣΗ ΤΗΣ ΑΝΤΙΠΑΛΌΤΗΤΑΣ, ΑΘΉΝΑ, ΕΛΛΆΔΑ, ΝΌΤΙΑ ΒΑΛΚΆΝΙΑ: | 

| As the streets of Istanbul is calm once more, the Greek population, 65,000 strong, are seen packing their bags, fleeing what was left of their homes. Fleeing to the nearest train station back to Greece, many families in the situation could not even afford a train ticket, and those who could were constantly being discriminated against by the Turkish population. However they flee not in worry, but in excitement - resettlement to newly obtained Greek lands. |

| On the 20th of January, 1954, 5 months after the Pogrom, a small yet powerful Turkish delegation landed in Athens. As mentioned previously, the Turkish delegation sent to Greece in September comprising of Mr. Halil Yüksel and Mr. Hüseyin Turan were hard at work, and successfully maintained the diplomatic channel between the Kingdom of Greece and the Turkish Republic. The aforementioned new delegation comprised Turkey's leading government officials, led by the Turkish President himself, Celâl Bayar, followed by the Turkish Foreign Minister, Mehmet Köprülü, and a Representative from the Turkish Assembly, Akbayar Karan. In the middle of the night after landing, the group was escorted to Tatoi Palace, the group feeling rather tired after a long day of meticulous planning. Not realizing that they were going to meet the king, the delegation walked in into the palace rather rudely, not acknowledging the guards, and nearly not acknowledging the King. Although things got off to a bad start, the Greek delegation, led by HRH King Pavlos, Prime Minister Alexandros Papagos, and a dozen other ministers and politicians began their negotiations. Mr. Halil Yüksel and Mr. Hüseyin Turan were also involved, the two being the only members of the delegation not tired. |

| At the end of the nearly 18-hour-long negotiation period known as the "Athenian Victory", a compromise was made by the Greek and Turkish government. The following changes and concessions were made as a result of the final negotiation, signed by the Greek and Turkish delegations: |

- The Turkish Republic shall pay Greece and Greeks in Turkey a sum of $30,000,000, including resettlement and reparation costs for those affected during the Pogrom.
- The Turkish Republic is to cede part of the Datça Peninsula to The Kingdom of Greece and to be renamed the Dorian Peninsula.
- The Dorian Peninsula's maritime borders will be adjusted in Greece's favor.
- The Greco-Turkish Border in Thrace is to be adjusted along the Evros River, the new borders being fitted and adjusted, both losing and gaining land.

| Ultimately, Greece came out as the "victorious" nation during these negotiations. On the 22nd of January, the Turkish delegation returned home, thus ending this dreadful string of events caused by the Istanbul Pogrom on the 6th of September, 1953. On the 23rd of January, Turkey officially ceded the Dorian Peninsula and their territories West of the Evros River. On the 25th of January, Greece ceded her territories East of the Evros River. On the 26th, the Greeks started to occupy the Dorian Peninsula. The Athenian Victory is hopefully the end of Greco-Turkish hostilities, and Greece and Turkey shall soon start thriving together in the future. |

"The Athenian Victory symbols the end of Greco-Turkish hostilities, and shows how truly resilient our nation is. We thank the Turkish government in Ankara for the negotiations, and now the Greeks can finally live in peace, only to the East that is."

- Greek Prime Minister, Alexandros Papagos

Peruvian Federation

Unaligned doesn't mean neutral

In recent days, La Presidenta had to comment in notice to what was going on in Europe. "Unaligned doesn't mean neutral," she pointed out. "Though the Federation isn't a part of the chess-game of reds and blues, we do notice things. We notice the..." She took a pause, as she started to worry over what to say next.

"We notice the aggression in Anatolia - what the Turkish have been doing to the Greeks - and I have to say..."

She seemed to choke again.

"I have to say that the Federation will stand with the Grecian peoples, and to condemn Turkish actions on both Greece and Jewish peoples. The modern world should be no harbor for madness."

This condemnation came late, but it was a condemnation nonetheless.

_{A Commonwealth of Liberty narration}

JANUARY ADDRESS S t a t e ⠀o f ⠀t h e ⠀N a t i o n 1. January 1954, Baghdad Dear citizens, I speak to you during this transition into the new year, 1954, to mark the much more significant transition that our country has gone through and to remind us all of what has been accomplished. Over the past year many things have changed, domestically and internationally. The gains of the April Revolution have been consolidated, and what was still a meek sapling only a few months ago has grown into a mighty tree, with deep roots and far-reaching branches. But as this tree grows, it runs into obstacles and challenges to its continued life. [...] The security we've become accustomed to defies the history of our nation and the general tendencies of our immediate neighborhood. To maintain this security, especially internally, will require ceaseless effort and strong national consciousness on the part of each and every citizen. Sectarianism, be it political, religious, or otherwise, provides fertile soil for discord. If we allow the old divisions to resurface and sharpen, we will once again allow ourselves to be exploited by foreign powers. The security services will keep a trained eye on every form of subversion of the national idea, which so threatens to undermine the Hashemite union. In due time, we will industrialize and become a modern nation. Most importantly, we will be able (if we successfully overcome the divisions with which history has burdened us) to chart our own course towards the future society. Modernization will only occur on our own terms, that is to say, on terms set by the Iraqi and Jordanian peoples, united in a republican Federation of the Hashemite crowns. This idea, as well as the generous fruits which it is sure to bear, ignites our hearts and compels us to work harder than the generations which preceded us. Citizens tell me this everywhere I go, and it is this fire of the will which drives my own every action. [...] Our nation is our life, with it we live or perish. Fate would have it, however, that our nation should remain divided even as the great majority of us begin to claw our way out of the slough of despondency. The occupation of the northern provinces is unacceptable; it serves as a haunting memory of those years of foreign domination and exploitation, a nightmare which will weigh on the brains of future generations. So long as Iraqi lands remain estranged from the nation, true independence will continue to elude us. In the new year and the years ahead, we will take every step necessary to bring about a situation in which our territorial integrity is restored. We are not alone in this endeavor; already the Turks and the Iranians are with us. In earlier times, both would have counted among our enemies. Consistent with the events taking place internally, outwardly the Federation has put aside past grievances for the sake of universal justice. Let us sharpen our swords regularly, so that when the fateful day arrives we will be ready to strike. We shall if we must, and we will do so with all that modern technology has to offer us. Our society will procure the means, through industriousness and friendship, for the ends of our national struggle. God is the greatest!

MINISTRY OF NATIONAL DEFENSE: FRANCE SENDS MILITARY AID TO GREECE AMID ADRIATIC TENSION AND RISE OF REBELLIOUS PINDUS PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC
_{IVTH FRENCH REPUBLIC | PARIS, JANUARY 1954}

_{| HELM OF WARFARE, MINISTÈRE DE LA DÉFENSE NATIONALE, FRANÇAIS RÉPUBLIQUE - | Newly elected President René Coty has authorized Minister of National Defense René Pleven to send an extensive military aid package to France's European and NATO ally in the Balkans. Greece (Adriatican Islands) not only finds itself surrounded by the growing tension in the Adriatic Sea, but also beset by a heavily militarized separatist faction proclaiming to be the new Pindus People's Republic (Pindus-). As one of Greece's closest allies, the French Government has deemed it necessary as well as a national responsibility to aid Greece as much as possible so that Greek forces may crush the Soviet influenced separatist forces before Eastern bloc nations can send any additional support to them. The French military aid package includes additional training support to Greek forces as well as intelligence gathering and sharing and spec ops support. The Ministry of National Defense has been cleared for a future deployment of French troops to Greece in order to boost defenses and help train Greek recruits, however Minister of National Defense René Pleven has stalled on such a move, claiming it may be too early for such a deployment. |}

_{The Slovene Question}

U N I F Y I N G   F O R   B R U S S E L S

| The German government, as one of the leading delegations heading the efforts to form the European Economic Community, was now faced with its first dilemma on the Continent since the end of the War and the start of the Peacetime Era. Tensions between Slovenia and Italy had persisted since the end of the War, but not many had expected Rome and Ljubljana to dig in their heels and stand directly opposite to one another's positions on Italy's claims to Slovenian territory. Officially, the government in Bonn took a non-committal stance, but behind the scenes and in meetings with respective ambassadors, the Chancellor - Konrad Adenauer - who also doubled as Minister for Foreign Affairs, voiced a different opinion. Adenauer had previously been faced with answering what he believed was the right stance in the tense debate between Slovenia and Italy, and to him on a personal level, Adenauer more preferred the Slovene position as did other fellow European nations. |

| Naturally, of course, this was not publicly voiced nor emphasized or embodied in Bundestag legislation or in the country's foreign policy. The Italian boycott of the Brussels Summit that would formally establish the European Economic Community had brought great concern to the German Government, who was certainly not interested in dividing the new Community before it even officially established itself. While Italy was affirmative in its support for the European Community project, it was much less supportive of Slovenian involvement in the Western Bloc. Germany had publicly called for both Rome and Ljubljana to 'reach an agreement that benefits both sides', but behind the scenes, German officials had been frustrated at what they saw as Italy dragging their feet and delaying the signing of a highly important agreement for Germany and indeed the rest of Europe. |

| With the announcement of the Italian intention to boycott, Chancellor Adenauer took to the microphone when he addressed the country on radio, calling on the Italian and Slovenian governments to 'put aside their differences and work with us and with democratic nations to advance the interests of a unified Europe that stands for peace, prosperity and unity'. Germany issued a special memorandum to Italy (Arcanda) urging them to reconcile with the Slovenes. Adenauer, however, was adamant that Germany remain firmly behind Slovenia and its current borders, stating to his Cabinet that he believed that Slovenia had as much legitimacy to its current territories as 'Germany has the legitimate claim to Berlin and Hamburg'. |

| The German Foreign Ministry invited Slovenian (Amsterwald) and Italian officials to meet in Bonn to reach an agreement to ensure the smooth flow of the Brussels Summit that would be held in late January of 1954, which would see the establishment of the largest Common Market the world has ever seen and the establishment of the supranational entity that was the European Community. |

| With the Brussels Summit approaching, however, Germany was also maneuvering to prepare to keep the Western Bloc united as it prepared to undergo one of the most significant economic and political shifts in its history, ever. Chancellor Adenauer was expected to himself personally attend the summit in Brussels, as would the heads of state and/or heads of government of delegations from France, the Benelux, Italy, Norden, Spain, Greece, and Austria, among others. As shown above, the involvement of Slovenia in the discussions for a European Common Market was extremely controversial especially when concerning the aforementioned tensions with Italy, but beyond that, the government in Bonn had been extremely happy to see that free Europe was receptive to the European Community project and more crucially the involvement of Germany in the project as a major player. 'It is certainly proof that Europe can now truly come together to achieve great things,' Adenauer told an advisor. |

_{'54 Election Campaign}

T H E   Y O U T H F U L    P R E S I D E N T I A B L E S

| With THREE MONTHS to go before the May 1954 National & Local Elections, the Philippine public was already getting once more used to the barrage of radio and print advertisements for candidates up and down the ballot. The political climate was tense, not because of any singular policy issue facing the electorate and the candidates, but rather because of what many experts and the general public alike perceived as a generational shift in politics. Among the candidates in the 1950 elections, a majority were aged 50 or older, and over 20% had served some form of public service or military service prior to the Second World War. In the 1954 elections, however, there was a significantly higher number of younger candidates aged in their 30s, 40s and sometimes 50s, who were presenting themselves as a fresh start to the establishment. The top presidential candidates reflected this too. JOSE AVELINO, the firebrand secular senator, had been nominated as the representative for the Liberal Democratic Party, previously represented by Hilario Moncado of the Modernists in 1946. RAMON MAGSAYSAY, the sole opposition member of President Roxas's Cabinet and the Defense Secretary, had secured the nomination of his party after a close battle with Camilo Osias, a member of the Senate opposition. |

| The governing Liberal Party was currently led by incumbent president Manuel Roxas. Roxas had been elected in the 1950 electoral landslide but was reportedly seeing declining health. Many within the establishment and especially his own party wanted him to run for re-election, noting that the runner up, Vice President Elpidio Quirino, was 'not as electable' as the commander-in-chief. The decision would eventually come down to a routine check up for the President in early January that revealed that his health had entered a new state of decline. Roxas announced his intention not to seek a second term, offering his all-powerful endorsement to Quirino in his party's primary. Carlos P. Romulo, the Philippine ambassador to the United States, and former House representative Fernando Lopez contested Quirino in the primary. The Vice President secured 55% of the vote, carrying him to the general election campaign. |

| Many were already at this point preparing for an extremely complicated election season. The incumbent president was not seeking re-election, and the smaller third party (the Liberal Democrats) were fielding an unusually strong and electable candidate for the presidency. Philippine political tradition so far mandated that each party alongside their presidential candidate nominate a 'senatorial slate' of candidates endorsed to serve in the Philippine Senate. These senatorial slate members would then campaign around the country, effectively being carried and given publicity by the high-stakes presidential race. The senatorial slate for the Liberal Democrats included political outsiders and economists, which garnered the party and its standard bearer Avelino support from technocrats and center-leftists. |

| Through radio and print advertising, the candidates presented their case to the public. Quirino built upon the 'great forward progress' made by the Roxas Administration and pledged to continue the fight against austerity and cuts to the welfare nets established by the Liberal-led government. Magsaysay, the Defense Secretary who commanded the effective crushing of religious resistance groups in Visayas and Mindanao, campaigned on a platform of strengthening exports to Australia, Japan, the United States, the Republic of Korea and other neighbors, and pledged to continue fighting Communist influence at home and abroad. Avelino, the Liberal Democratic candidate, campaigned to end the rapidly polarizing two-party duopoly system that the Liberals and Nacionalistas had inadvertently set into place. All three candidates were considered extremely electable, and thus early polling showed what was by previous standards a dead heat race. By mid-February, ahead of the first debate to be broadcast via radio and print, Magsaysay was leading polls with 47%, while Vice President Quirino hovered around 44%, and Senator Avelino around 9%. Ramon Magsaysay was considered by many as the 'Wonder Candidate'. He was young, charismatic, thoughtful, and emphasized his support for working farmers during his aggressive visits to the countryside; the Nacionalista candidate visited rural and agricultural strongholds like Ilocos and Batangas and Cavite over double the times the other two candidates did. |

| The first and only debate between the three 'presidentables' took place on 27 February 1954, at the University of the Philippines Performing Arts Theater, with a crowd of 500 Filipino citizens chosen selectively to reflect the national electorate as a whole watching. According to a poll of the 500, experts projected that 49% of Filipinos would lean towards Magsaysay for the general election, against 40% of Filipinos for Quirino and 11% for Jose Avelino. The pundits and radio commentators and news reporters noted the rising amount of support for the young Magsaysay, who despite claims of being an American 'puppet candidate' was still expected to cruise to the presidency come the May election. |

Revoluția Culturală Română

The Romanian Cultural Revolution

| In the years spanning from 1952 to 1963, Romania underwent a profound transformation under the visionary leadership of Comrade General Secretary of The Communist Party of Romania, President of The Presidium of The Great National Assembly, President of The Socialist Republic of Romania, and Supreme Commander of The Peoples Army, Constantin Rotaru. His tenure marked a significant turning point in the nation's history, as he sought to harness the power of Romanian nationalism, the National-Communist ideology, and Romanian culture to create a new, unified Romania.

| Constantin Rotaru, a staunch believer in the principles of National-Communism, understood that the Romanian people's deep-rooted attachment to their cultural heritage could be a potent force for change. He recognized that the fusion of communism with Romanian traditions and values was the key to securing both the hearts and minds of the nation's citizens.

| To achieve this grand vision, Rotaru embarked on a multifaceted approach:

1 - Cultural Revival: Under His Excellency's guidance, Romania witnessed a cultural renaissance like never before. The government invested heavily in the preservation and promotion of Romanian literature, music, art, and folklore. The country's rich history is celebrated through numerous festivals, exhibitions, and educational programs.

2 - Nationalist Propaganda: The Genius of The Carpathians masterfully utilized the power of propaganda to cultivate a sense of pride and unity among Romanians. The media was employed to extol the virtues of Romanian history and culture, emphasizing its contributions to the world.

3 - Cultural Exchanges: Comrade Rotaru encouraged cultural exchanges with other Eastern Bloc and EC countries to strengthen the bonds of solidarity within the socialist world. Romanian artists, musicians, and scholars were sent abroad to showcase the nation's cultural richness.

4 - Economic Prosperity: By focusing on industrialization and modernization, Comrade Rotaru aimed to boost Romania's economic standing. This prosperity is presented as the fruit of a united and resolute nation working towards a common goal.

Is there an application?	We in the COL do not find it reasonable to saddle new members with bureaucracy, requirements for citizenship and thus map placement is simply holding WA membership within the region.
How does the Citizenship process work?	Seven full days with WA-status in the COL, and continuing to do so grants full COL Citizenship, although Map Placement occurs as soon as WA membership is obtained, regardless of the seven day period, which concerns our Democratic Elections.
What goes on the Regional Message Board?	The COL RMB is the place where our roleplays are posted, wheter detailed developments or civilian character stories . . . You will find primary IC/RP conversations on the RMB, as we seek to focus creativity within community that our members partake in.
Do you have a Discord?	Yes, we do! The COL Discord is for OOC conversations, and sometimes we play games like Minecraft and Hearts of Iron IV together! — COL Discord

Industry in The Socialist Republic of Romania

February 1954
Bucharest, Socialist Republic of Romania, Socialist Democratic Republic Romania

| With Romania experiencing an economic boom, it`s time to reflect on how the Romanian industry has evolved after nearly 2 years since Comrade General Secretary, President of The Presidium of The Great National Assembly, President of The Socialist Republic of Romania, Constantin Rotaru, is in charge.

| In 1952 Romania numbered around 2.500 total factories, employing a number of around 13 million souls that live in The Republic.
Today the number of factories is at 3.100 employing a total of 14.100.000 people, a number that is increasing every day and every month.

| Recently, Malaxa, a subcompany of FAUR Bucharest that is specialized in building automobiles for the average citizen of Romania, officially produced the first two Romanian cars, the Malaxa 1 and Malaxa "Rodica" 2. FAUR Bucharest, the mother company of Malaxa also released it`s first diesel Locomotive back in January 1954.
Romania produces a variety of goods, starting from steel to automobiles, trucks and locomotives, to the most sophisticated heavy machineries, meant to operate in different factories not only in Romania but also in other parts of the world.
The oil industry of Romania is one of the most important pieces of the Romanian economy. Refineries in Ploiesti, Borzesti or Petrobrazi or Câmpina, supply Romania with enough energy and fuel to support a growing economy, even in the toughest of times.

| Even with these great accomplishments, the "extraordinary session" between The Communist Party of Romania and The Great National assembly combined with the 5 year plans enacted back in 1952 have decided the further development of Romanian Industry, securing Romania a spot in Europe as a modern industrial Socialist country.

All this is possible because of our beloved leader, brave son of the Romanian people, Constantin Rotaru!
