Dear Minister Greco


In the last several years, Auraria has worked to complete the transition from the Caudillo’s Regime to once again a democratic nation, honoring more than a century of tradition and the values with which the Aurarine Democratic Tradition was founded upon through the First Aurarian Revolution. These values overthrew the shackles of a tyrant before and have done it again as the Second Republic now reigns and the people, once again, are free and empowered to forge their own destiny.

The Grand Duchy of Lars and the Aurarine Republic are bonded not only by proximity along the Reman Sea, but commitment to democratic values. It is the firm belief of the Republic that the resumption of normal relations between our two countries is paramount and that our economic interests are better integrated for the benefit of both countries.

The Republic Ministry of Foreign Affairs stands prepared to embark on this normalization.

All the best,

Official Answer

The Grand Duchy of Lars it is a nation open to dialogue and international cooperation.
For this reason, we see no reason why we should not accept your request to create a more solid lagame among our nations. Once friendly, our nations should return to support each other. Because both we have chosen not to sacrifice the values of freedom that bind our peoples, democracy and respect for human rights. These values are the bricks and mortar that built the nation we are today.

We hope that in the near future, Lars and Auraria will be able to lead a common future international agenda to protect the rights of all peoples free from tyranny and pressure. Because only by combining our voices in a single choir, our song will be able to climb over the high mountains of the indifference of tyranny and barbarism.

Kind regards, Grand Duchy of Lars

We are happy and feel honoured to have the relations with our northern neighbour at such an excellent level. We will do everything we can to maintain the relations as cordial as they currently are.

➤ The Grand Duchess and the government of the Grand Duchy of Lars send their deepest condolences to the victims of the terrorist attacks in Pelasgia and Eiffelland-Retalia.

➤ Snow avalanche on Monte Roccioso, 2 experienced climbers died and 3 others injured. They tried to reach the top of the mountain.

➤ In 2019 half of the energy produced within the Grand Duchy was from renewable sources. The future goal is to derive 100% of energy from renewable sources by 2030, said the manager of the electricity and gas supply.


➤ The main battle tank of the Grand Ducal army is no longer suitable for a modern conflict. The army, however, does not plan to replace it soon and updates have not been made, such as the reactive armor.

We heartily thank the Government of Lars for their support after the terrorist attack in the KaVoGe.

We would like to ask the Grand-Ducal Army to reconsider its decision not to replace the outdated main battle tanks, given the fact that they are not suitable for a modern conflict any more. It is better to have the military equipment up-to-date. The Eiffelloretalian military industries can help the armed forces of the Grand-Duchy with a modernization of their tanks.

➤ The Ministry of Defense has announced a plan to replace the main battle tank, over two hundred vehicles, with new units, more compatible and modern with the ODS allies.

➤ Francesco Greco, interviewed on the recent activity of the neighboring countries along the coast of Montedoro, replied that Lars is in contact with his allies, but there is no reason to be alarmed by what is nothing more than a "demonstration of power".

➤ The Acoustic Alarm system of the city of Gorgona had a malfunction, causing the alarm to start for an inexistent air raid. Report a lot of fear and few damage to public property. Investigations underway on the malfunction.

We would be most willing to demonstrate our main battle tanks to our friends in the Grand Duchy. Not only would it assist in streamlining the compatability between our armed forces, the chassis used for our tanks are multipurpose in allowing one chassis design to be used for multiple different roles in the battlefield.

PM Tusca Larci,
responds to our microphones at the interview of Heinrich Obenaus.

  • I would have liked to avoid having to respond to what was a simple communication from the Ministry such as traveling to the Republic of Ostmark. But apparently, the workers' republic of Ostmark considers itself offended by what is a fact that exists in ostmark the lack of respect for human rights and a free elections which foresee the democratic participation of an opposition. The rest of his speech is also the delusion of a man hungry for power, and who uses the excuse of a simple communication from our ministry to attack our solid democratic institutions, describing us as an enemy. Enemy that we certainly are not. I believe, however, that there is still a strong base of the population of Ostmark, which after two years is still looking for those lost democratic values. They will be the flower of the new reborn democracy of a free Ostmark.
@Ostmark

➤ Bredo Rail Lars concludes an agreement for the sale of some trams to the city of Grau and the updating of the Grau-Tergest railway network. The new railway line will have the opportunity to use Lars' high-speed trains and shorten the journey between the two urban centers by several hours.

We would like to present the main battle tank to our Larian allies. It is our most recent main battle tank, with many new techniques. We designed the Gepard tanks with a focus on rapid repair on the battlefield, survivability, cost-effectiveness and off-road performance. One design feature is that we placed the engine in the front of the tank, giving additional protection against a frontal attack, allowing more storage capacity and making it possible to put the entrance on the back of the tank, so that the crew can enter and leave the tank even under enemy fire.

OOC: @Johnston Isle , did you take the Merkava as well? ;)

➤ The army began replacing its MTB with new purchases and products on lincese in the country.

➤ Elected the first mayor of CBS origin in the city of Slavia, Vlasta Vargová won election with 56% of the votes against his challenger.

➤ A town of about a thousand inhabitants, near the border with Friuli, Seburgo, declares independence from the Grand Duchy, by printing his coins that sells to the tourist and alternative car plates. The President of the Region: "Publicity stunt to renew tourism in the city."

Red Victory,
Games of the 7th Apolloniad

Measured victory by the Red Athletes, they are only one gold and a bronze for the athletes of Lars, ranking in the eleventh position out of thirteen. Only in front of Strathclyde and the cousins Furlanie. The podium, in order, goes to Ostmark, Kadikistan and Sylvania.

An international sporting event, transformed into a political battle within the Senate of the Foxes. The Liberal party, the opposition, led by Evaristo Guiomar, and supported by several Green and Independent senators, has called the current executive to answer such a "poor" result in the Senate. Result due, according to the opposition, to an ever-decreasing number of funds over the years destined for sports infrastructures and activities. The executive, through his spokesman for the Senate, replies that the investments are constant and in line with previous years, therefore one cannot accuse the government to cut funds and exploit sport for political purposes, unlike the opposition now.

The Prime Minister, Tusca Larci, will receive the athletes of the Sports Federation upon their return to Lars from Nobatia. "Sport unites nations, it cannot be an element of political division, external or internal."

The proclamation,
of the Federal Kingdom of Etruria.

Today, February 12, 2020, the Senate meeting in Lars, at the Palazzo Rosso, approved the law n° 1 of the day containing only two articles. The bill is presented by the conservative group, but as was expected, it was practically unanimously approved by members present, there are only a few absences.

"The Senate, on the solemn day of the session, with the enthusiasm of gratitude and affection, acclaimed Isabella I of Lars, Queen of Etruria."
  • Art. 1. Grand Duchess Isabella I of Lars assumes for herself and her successors the title of Queen of Etruria.
  • Art. 2. The acts of the Government and any other act that must be titled in the name of the Queen will be made out with the following formula: ( Name of the King/Queen) it is proclaimed by the people, by vote of the Nation, King/Queen of Etruria.
A new Kingdom flag and coat of arms is adopted, while the established order is maintained in compliance with the law. The Senate, the constitutional court and all other organs, maintain their duties and privileges, the Royal house does not appropriate any power except that sanctioned by the constitution.

On behalf of Her Imperial Majesty the Emperatriz Annabella Sofia Francisco I, the government in her name congratulates Etruria on the evolution of its monarchy. The higher unifying ideal. Transcending petty politics for our peoples. God bless you. Viva Justosia.

The Polesian People's Republic will not recognise the new name or title used by the Larsian monarch or state. Lars will continued to be referred to as the Grand Duchy of Lars in all official Polesian documents and communiqués.

His Majesty Trusty, King of the Confederation Johnston Isle, a member of the ODS, died following an accident in the Republic of Auraria. Confirming the news is the Confederate government itself and the Auraria media.
The body of His Royal Highness will be brought back home with a military flight and the honor guard of the 88th Paratroopers Brigade.
Real Casa di Mediceo-Lorraine has ordered that the flag on the Royal Palace of Lars be at half mast, a right reserved exclusively to close members of the Royal family. In addition, throughout the week starting today, the Royal Guard will hold the black band of mourning on his arm in respect for the King.

Economy,
privileges granted to Furlanie suspended.

Today, against the most imaginative predictions, the Grand Duchy of Furlanie has concluded an unprecedented agreement that has shaken several ministries within the Kingdom of Etruria.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has thundered that these actions, unilaterally taken in the name of an entire continent, but operated with a secret diplomacy, are bearers of chaos and ruin. Furthermore, the ministry itself has made it known that Ivar-Grau Understanding is a billateral agreement and therefore will have no recognition by Etruria at present.

While the markets wondered why the Martecna S.p.A. group has suspended the acquisition of the shares of the G&T Cantîrs group, the Ministry of Economy and Finance, has issued a press release declaring the unilateral suspension of the advantageous rates granted to the Grand Duchy, for the next 72h and further checks on goods traffic by land, in pending further action by the ODS.

Ministry of Foreign Affairs
To the attention of the Etrurian Foreign Ministry

We are shocked and insulted by these measures taken by the Etrurian state, measures that will hurt its own economy and companies, taken in response to a Friulian bilateral agreement signed in the hope of a peaceful future for the continent.

The Friulian Government is persuaded that with time and logic, Etruria will recognise our efforts and undo this ridiculous reaction.


Furlanìe considers Etruria a friend, thus I ask my Etrurian colleague to inform my ministry on the reasons behind this hostile action, the Grand Duchy is open to discussion, but can't stand helpless as the Etrurian companies profit on their lower tariffs in Furlanìe while our companies suffer unfair competition in Etruria. that is why I am obliged to advise the government to reintroduce similar custom duties on our side.

The negative reaction of the Grand Duchy of Lars to a peaceful initiative between Kadikistan and Furlanie, which will help secure stability in the wider Gallo-Germania region, exposes the Organisation of Democratic States for the belligerent, war-hungry alliance it has spent so long pretending not to be.

Rurikgrad Pact members stand shoulder-to-shoulder together in this time of rising tensions and are fully prepared to respond to any aggression by the ODS or its proxies.
