Military Operations in Borneo and Papua.

After the agreement for a joint military pact to operate and assist the Swanovian Republic was signed with the United Monatian Asian Federation. Today, the United Monatian Army, United Monatian Navy, and the Monatian Airforce, finally begin their joint military campaign in an attempt to capture land for the Swanovian Republic and eliminate the Indonesian threat within the South East Asian Hemisphere of influence. Carriers and Destroyers will be put on standby to invade West Kalimantan and Papua, while the Airforce and Army will be stationed primarily in the Philippines and East Malaysia, ATMES bombers and multiple air superiority fighters and strike fighters will be placed on full alert. Meanwhile, Air reconnaissance teams will consistently monitor the ground of any signs of activity using the Ravens, ground harassment will be issued when necessary. Once ground troops are secured within the landing zones and air superiority has been achieved, Ravens will then commit to full on close support, assisted with attack helicopters. United Monat Marines will also have use of the MRF-11D3 (S-11 Viper) to conduct fast ground strikes on enemy positions if needed. Japanese built tanks and Chinese built Type 100s will be the main front in the attack of West Kalimantan, Infantry Fighting Vehicles, APCs, and Humvees will follow behind the MBTs and advance through the center and into the East. Similar tactics will also be used in the naval invasion of the Papua island. Missile strikes and air strikes will be conducted to minimize Monat casualties prior to the invasion. With the plans for the campaign settled, the Congress gives the go ahead to mobilize the military. 

August 4th, 0400, 2022. All forces in the air, land, and at sea are in position to strike simultaneously on their designated targets on West Kalimantan and West Papua. 0500.

UMAF-built MRF-11D3s (S-11 Viper), ASF-15s, UMAF-built Ozerfighters now designated as the MRF-3, and ASF-2s, continuously dogfight against Indonesian Su-27s, although only a few were stationed in Kalimantan. The majority of the Indonesian Air Force’s strength relied upon Southern islands of Java, which are now captured by the allied Swanovians. Pilots of the Monatian Airforce used their extensive training to the test and easily neutralized the enemy air forces, gaining surmountable air superiority within the area of the operation, losing only 2 planes of the deployed 30 in odds of destroying 28 Su-27 fighter jets.

August 8th, 2022. With the troops successfully landing within the shores of West Kalimantan, landing crafts carrying several Type 10s and Type 100s reach the shores safely and beginning to regroup for a well formulated attack inland.

KWIF 3 consists of 200,000 infantrymen and mechanized units, 250 Type 10s, 150 APCs, 300 Type 89 IFVs, 60 RA23-MSC Ravens, 30 MRF-3s, and MRF-11D3s using air bases in Belitung and Bangka Islands.

The EMIFC (East Malaysian Invasion Force Company, at this time, also begins its advance down south of the UMAF - Indonesian border in Borneo, consisting of a substantial number of 100 Type 10s, 300 Type 89 IFVs, 5000 mechanized units, 170 RA23-MSC Ravens, 200 OH-1s, 40 MRF-11D3s, and 70 MRF-3s. 

August 9th, 2022, 0755. Both the WKIF 1 and EMIFC easily breezed through West Kalimantan, taking the port city of Singkawang, major highways, and several towns, such as Sosok and Putussibau. Strike fighters waking for their orders to take off and engage the main Indonesian forces, while OH-1s and Ravens patrol the skies. WKIF 2 managed to advance further from the city of Pontianak all the way through Sintang, meeting dispatch forces from the East Malaysian Invasion Force Company, the town of Balai Berkuak and far into Mangkul, Manismata, and Berapi, using the main road. 0830. WKIF 3, however struggled to reach their designated areas to successfully capture due to unexpected numbers of enemy forces stationed in the South West area of Central Kalimantan in Kumai. 2 hours after the initial landings, enemy Indonesian strike aircrafts bombarded allied positions, destroying four UMAF Type 10s, 15 Type 89s, and 3 RA23-MSC Ravens. Reinforcements in the shape of 30 MRF-3s, and ASF-2s were deployed to achieve air superiority within the sector. WKIF 3 managed to push the Indonesian forces all the way back to Pembuang. The Battle of Pembuang then ensued, with a massive tank on tank battle in the outskirts of the town and a fierce air battle in the skies. It was a decisive victory for the Monatian Air Force, achieved total air superiority. Strike aircraft are then deployed to provide close air support for the tank platoons of WKIF 3, a long stalemate has stalled their advance for the night. 

0200. 40 RA23-MSC Ravens and 20 MRF-3s were immediately utilized for a night time operation to break the frontlines in Pembuang.

Several large plumes of fire lit up the night skies. More noise which seems to be dozens more jets fly past, heading for the northern outskirts of Pembuang. Opposing Tank Forces fell into complete disarray, WKIF 3 tank platoon Ozeo 2 and Ozeo 3 initiated their attack on the disorientated tank brigades. The tank battle was soon over at 0450. With it, WKIF 3 continued their invasion deeper into Southern Central Kalimantan.

The Papuan Invasion Force Asgrod 1 and Asgrod 2, both consisting of 50 AAVP-7A1s, the initial phase of the invasion, assisted with several ATMES air strikes and missile strikes into the Papua mainland into targeted artillery positions. The initial phase was soon followed by several landing crafts carrying Tanks and several more infantrymen to commence the 2nd front of the operation. Military engineers and soldiers then begin to create makeshift air bases for their Ravens to operate within the area, while many more long ranged strike aircrafts will be positioned within the Banda Arc islands in friendly Swanovian air bases to provide support. 1230. 40 Type 10s, 100 Type 89s, and 40 Ravens advance into West Papua unopposed, however, Asgrod 1 and Asgrod 2 will stop frequently to resupply and avoid a potential ambush.

The SECP Protected State

Texas has become a hot zone between Latin America and the United States…
The Federation and Mexico have already put in their two cents for support for the “Latin American Opposition Army” (LAOA) in Texas.
The story so far is basically the same as it was in 1836, expect in an ironic twist of fate.
The LAOA outnumbers the Texan military nearly three to one, the Texan military has a fairly modern army; however, the LAOA is being armed by two other modern nations, the LAOA has received volunteers from across the Latin American Community (mainly in the form of Federation soldiers)… You can almost see the same version of the Texan war expect flipped.
From the start the LAOA have claimed much of Southern and Western Texas holding large cities like El Paso and San Antonio while the Houston finds itself surrounded and Austin is becoming the front line of the conflict.
Dallas and Fort Worth sits a comfortably away from the front, but the threat of LAOA attacks are every where in the nation at the moment…
Texas saw the threat it was facing and decided that if they wanted to control this fight they would have to take San Antonio which has become the de facto capital of the LAOA.
Thanks to LAOA informants the Texan military movement was detected long before they even crossed the front line.
A series of ambush and hit and run tactics slowed the large movement of Texan forces, but they would never be stopped by this…

The Battle for San Marcos

As the slightly battered Texan forces rolled into the city of San Marcos the real fighting begun…
San Marcos was turned into a fortress city essentially and the Texan rules of engagement are prohibit most destruction of said city.
As the Texan soldiers entered the city they weren’t faced entirely by LAOA forces, they now faced Federation troops as well.
The fight for the city and its threat of cutting off further Texas advance has turned San Marcos into a key city to take and defend thus halting Texas’ advance here until they can get it cleared up, but a bogged down battle in a hostile region while outnumbered is never a good sign.
Days turn into weeks as the Texan forces fail time and time again to break San Marcos, very slowly the Texan forces are pushed back as heavier weapons are brought in against the American weapon systems.
But the tide of the battle and possibly the war changed when Federation new gen fighters begun to make sorties against Texan targets.
Being able to out run and out shoot the modern Texan aerial arsenal it was only a matter of time till the Federation and LAOA to gain dominance of sky which soon translated to the ground…
The Texan route from San Marcos was rundown by consent Federation and LAOA attacks and this defeat just set off a domino effect the smallish Texan military just couldn’t deal with.
Soon Houston gave into its siege and Austin was taken at the front line, seeing the outcome of this the Texan government was willing to negotiate the end of this two mouth long conflict.
As the deal was signed between the LAOA Texas it was agreed that the LAOA would be declared an independent nation from Texas, the border between the two nations will be carved from the current frontline, and Texas will pay a small sum for the destruction and death it caused….
And in a turn of events the LAOA then agreed to be apart of the growing SECP, becoming an autonomous state of the Federation.
This small conflict showed a few things after it was settled, Mexico and the Federation have came together to help in assisting this war and likewise will breed future cooperation and that the United State’s actions of backing Texas against the LAOA tampered their relations in the eyes other Latin American nations.
Clearly the US isn’t interested in equality if they were so willing to back the hatred of Texas and the Federation is becoming the defender of the Latin American culture, perhaps some more talks about the future of the SECP and the other Latin American nations can come to a head…

New States
The United States today has ended agreements with the Islands of Hawaii and their reintroduction into the United States. According to the agreement Hawaii will rejoin the United States in return for a guarantee of no longer entering and using ground scared to the people of Hawaii, in addition to the Hawaiian islands Midway, Johnson and Wake Atolls as well as the Pitcairn Islands have joined the union officially becoming territories and under the jurisdiction of the United States. In the Atlantic the United States has come to an agreement with Bermuda and the Azores Islands officially becoming overseas territories of the United States. With the inclusion of Hawaii the United States comes one step closer to reclaiming their own territory. to the South of the United States they once more offer the Republic of Texas statehood, however with the precarious situation currently happening no proper meetings have been established, although with the threat of the Federation and the impending civil war, more are siding with statehood

Open Doors and Trade

The PRO and Austria have continued dialogue for peaceful relations since 2020 with the nations when they were once. Austria, Czechia, and Slovakia will rent ports from the PRO and trade with the majority Slavic nation and other world markets. The PRO will import Austrian goods while Austria imports PRO goods mainly in the domestic product department. The rest of the PU views this favorably and feels that given Austria's minor Slavic population that should the nation wish to become part of the PU or the PRO they would be welcomed with open arms as honorary Slavs.

With the fall of the government which controlled Austria Czechia and Slovakia who were on good terms the PRO, the PRO will honor that agreement and allow the nations to continue to use PRO ports to import and Export as they see fit. The rest of the PU agrees. Poland a close PU ally also opens its ports up to the Austrians to trade in the Baltic and beyond. The sphere of PRO influence in Europe is vast now spanning wide and far.

Ambassadors have also been sent to Germany, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia to attempt to open dialogues with them as well. And open trade with the nations to keep commerce in the rest of Europe flow freely. It is not yet clear how the nations will react but it is hoped that it will be favorable.

PRO Memberships for 3?

With the success of the Panslavism meeting of 2022 and the creation of the Panslavic Union the nations of Czechia and Slovakia had expressed interest in joining the PRO very early on and talks between the three nations had continued until finally, the paperwork came before the nation's leaders an application to join the PRO. The leaders of the nation signed the papers and delivered them in the middle of the month. Arriving in Belgrade with the completed applications was also a letter from Vienna the capital of Austria requesting a meeting in two days between Supreme Leader Ivanenko and Szücs Gyula the recently elected leader of the APR (Austrian People's Republic). Intrigued by this invitation Ivanenko accepts and approves the entrance to the PRO for Czechia and Slovakia before sending it onto the People's Council.

Ivanenko arrives in Vienna within the two days opting to go by car to see the nation, her motorcade under the escort of six PRO armored vehicles and then falling under the escort of APR personnel as well. Upon entering the city a crowd had gathered to see the motorcade pass by. those walking the streets took a look before continuing on with their business. Once they reached the state-building Ivanenko was let out of her car and shown to a conference room. She waited for a few moments, as she waited she studied the room and smiled it reminded her of Budapest; a door opened to her left causing her to shift her attention to the sudden movement. In strode Gyula himself a wide smile on his face as he approached and warmly greeted the PRO leader, even going so far as to kiss her hand which was a bit much for her.

Ivanenko greeted Gyula with a firm handshake and returned the smile.

"I trust the journey was comfortable..." Gyula began making a motion for her to take a seat.

"Yes it was fine you have fine roads....you asked for me personally so you must want something of me..." Ivanenko said cutting to the chase.

Gyula's warm smile faded his expression turning stern and nearly like a statue. "My people have concerns about the people to the west...what can you tell me of them?"

Ivanenko closed her eyes a moment and chuckled. "You have no doubt heard about us nearly coming to blows with them when they tried to interfere in our interest yes?"

Gyula only gave a nod in response to let Ivanenko know that he knew.

"We are Slavic they hold rightfully free Slavic land, this near dust-up in our sphere in Sweden would have made us come to blows...they are not to be trusted...and are greedy that is why the PRO exists...to defend the Slavic and other peoples who wish to join us from them...we offer peace and security to those who do not wish to join such an organization..." Ivanenko said reassuringly then added. "We would even accept your people....given your minority population of Slavic peoples and we would accept you anyways regardless of if you are Slavic or not. Your culture would be preserved and honored by us."

Gyula put his hand to his chin in thought thinking over what had just been said and was silent for several minutes; Ivanenko waited silently looking at her phone. When Gyula cleared his throat he nodded to her and thanked her for her time; the two shook hands once again and went their separate ways and Ivanenko returned to the Belgrade. Within an hour of her return, Gyula called her office and requested the papers for entrance into the PRO for Austria. Stating that he nor his people wished to join the Amaliens.

This brought a smile to Ivanenko's face, something she had not done in a very long time, on the last week of the month where it was intended that two would join the PRO fully, three joined. Czechia, Austria, and Slovakia became full-fledged members of the PRO accepting the Oath of Loyalty as all nations must. The move was seen favorably by the three smaller nations people as the preservation of themselves and future generations to come into this world. With their entry elections for the district, representatives were for the People's Council began once chosen the representatives would join the others of the People's council in choosing the direction and policies of the PRO. Time would only tell where the People's council would lead. The next big item on the list was the question of continued involvement in the Caucuses conflict which had many still on edge and wondering why PRO blood should be spilled for foreigners when there were much larger threats like the Amaliens and the Turks on their doorstep.

A cabinet meeting started. Leader Jose Yaroslav began," We need to improve the GDP of our nation. Any ideas?" The Minister of Finance, Aron Nimzowitsch replied," Chrond has a stable population pyramid with a low population hence although our GDP per capita is high, our nominal GDP is low." The Minister of Industry John Bjorn said," As we have a low population, we can afford to invest in automation as jobs will be gained for the manufacturing and overlooking of the equipment. Most of our citizens are educated in sciences and computers, the people who lose their jobs, can go into the construction sector as there is a demand of workers. We need to incentivize automation among manufacturing companies, this will improve our manufacturing sector therefore improve trade." The Minister of Education said," We need to invest more in education to attract foreign students to our nation, charging the students a bit extra would improve our GDP." The Minister of Trasportation said," We could try to create a profit earning transportation system like Hong Kong's transport. They have a larger population and a better transportation system, hence the profit. If we manage to increase our population by... 100,000 it should do the trick, we would earn a profit."

The Trevian-Chinese Border Stand Off

China has fully denounced the Trevian Empire for building a wall on the Chinese border while attempting to purchase land to connect the empire from China. In addition, the Trevian Empire moved military forces to the Chinese border including over fifty self propelled guns and over 4,000 troops. In response, China moved over 60,000 troops and 200 tanks in response. China has no ambitions to sell any strip of land to the Trevians and as such, will retaliate for any incursions caused by the Trevians among Chinese borders.

Famous Chinese band 古典條件 (Classical Condition) made a new single "We're gonna have to slap (the dirty little Trevian) in response to the Trevian attempts to stir up a conflict on the border. The single topped #1 on the 2023 January charts.

We're gonna have to slap the dirty little Trevian
And Uncle Zhou's the guy who can do it
We'll skin the streak of yellow from this sneaky little fellow
And he'll think a sandstorm hit him when he's thru it

We'll take the double crosser to the old woodshed
We'll start on his bottom and go to his head
When we get thru with him he'll wish that he was dead
We gotta slap the dirty little Trevian

Uncle Zhou’s a man who’s given a helpin’ hand
To many a foreign lands; don’t forget it!
But when somebody goes to trompin’ on his toes
They’d better guard their nose or they’ll regret it.

We're gonna have to slap the dirty little Trevian
And Uncle Zhou's the guy who can do it
The Trevs and all their hooey will be changed into chop suey
And the northern empire will set when we get thru it

Their alibi for fighting is to save their face
For ancestors waiting in heavenly space
We'll kick their precious face down to the other place
We gotta slap the dirty little Trevian.

We’re gonna have to slap the dirty little Trevian
And Uncle Zhou’s the guy who can do it.
I wouldn’t fool ya mister: He can raise an awful blister,
And somebody’s pants will burn before we’re through it
.
We’ll reach across their damned wall and grab that yellow Trevian!
And turn him upside down right on Democracy’s lap.
We’ll blister his rear and do it with a snap!
We gotta slap the dirty little Trevian.

Uncle Zhou is mild: As peaceful as a child,
But never get him riled or you will rue it!
So now they wanna fight! Well they’ve bit off quite a bite!
And Uncle Zhou is gonna make ‘em chew it!

We’re gonna have to slap the dirty little Trevian
And Uncle Zhou’s the guy who can do it.
‘Cause it really is a feature when he starts to be a teacher.
We can show you several pupils who’ve been through it
.
Uncle Zhou believes in the Golden Rule
But when he’s double crossed he’s gotta kick like a mule!
We’re warnin’ Arabia and Abyssinia too: Uncle Zhou’s a fightin’ fool!
We’ve gotta slap the dirty little Trevian.

Chinese Military Investment in Africa

In mid-January, the Republic of Abyssinia descended into full blown civil war between the government, two communist factions and a nationalist faction over the course of a few weeks due to political corruption caused by Baba Tundee's dictatorial regime. In the opening days of the civil war, Socialist and Government forces attempted to seize Chinese naval bases in the region, forcing the Chinese to tactically withdraw and destroy the bases before the two forces could make use of them. However, one of the naval bases occupied by the Chinese forces within the socialist territories has yet to evacuate and so far, held back the opposing forces.

China declared war on both Baba Tundee's regime and in addition, failed to recognize the People's Republic of Abyssinia as a nation. Chinese military forces in the area are expected to mobilize as soon as possible and hold all defensive positions in the nationalist held regions of Abyssinia, while waiting for reinforcements. Over 70,000 Chinese troops are to be deployed with over 300 tanks, as well as several squadrons worth of fighter aircraft and attack aircraft. Bombers will fly from bases in India, and naval operations will be based out of India as well. Two aircraft carriers, three battlecruisers, sixteen frigates and eight destroyers have been organized as part of the Abyssinian Task Force to aid in naval supremacy in the region.

"We will not allow this gruesome dictatorship to last in Africa anymore. Baba Tundee's attempts to capture and torture our Chinese troops in the region will not be tolerated lightly and we will, at the necessary costs bring peace back to East Africa" Zhou Jingyi said when he was interviewed in public, outside of the Government Building on January 27th.

Come take a look in the Discord (link in the WFE)! We have plenty of political positions you can run for in addition to positions within the roleplay. We'd love to have you here! America JB won the position for Consul (President basically) after a very tough and narrow race against the Progressive Party and the UIP.

Did I mention political parties? In TDR, you have the ability to join and make political parties of your choosing, currently there's Freedom Party, Progressive Party, and the UIP (which uses the Moldavian Armed Forces flag as its flag). Not willing to be in a political party, run or vote as an independent!

I hope you enjoy your time here however long it may be, and remember - join the discord!
