Military expansion continues as Burgundian aircraft are lost in Ivernish conflict
The Ducal Air Force have lost 11 aircraft to groundfire since the beginning of the air campaign against the Ivernish rebels. "We have employed propeller driven aircraft for ground attacks which are more vulnerable to groundfire" said a military spokesman. Despite the loss in aircraft, the Ducal military has pursued an expansion policy and continued renewal. "The future is here and we are still fighting 20 years ago" said an anonymous Army officer. The military reserve is expected to increase by 85,000 but the active forces will remain the same.

Grand Duke Maximilien was pressed today by journalists (none from le Soleil) regarding the empty throne of Serenierre which many say is rightfully the Grand Duke's to claim as the Grand Duke's mother is thought to be the closest relative to the Royal Family. The Grand Duke stated that he would "neither renounce nor claim the throne unless acted upon by the people of Serenierre". The Grand Duke said he would not comment further on the throne nor on the government of Serenierre.
