Telegrammagentur der Zeitungen (TdZ)
Telegrammagentur der Zeitungen (Engfälisch: The Newspapers Telegram Agency) is a network for respected news companies around the globe to quickly push breaking news to other news agencies such as AP, AP BusinessWire, or PAHINA for example. Additionally information collected here from various local and national newspapers around the globe is accessible to the general public.


Originally starting as Norddeutsche Telegrambyrå in Krakow am See (1908), the group has subsequently expanded across the globe as a means to notify news agencies and news companies of news around the world. Today TdZ has its main offices based in the Hanseatic capital city while its headquarters are still in Krakow am See. Its services can be found free on the internet.

News is posted by a news handle which is owned by a news agency or news group and summarized in 2-4 sentences. The fewer sentences, usually the better. The posting is also accompanied by a news level, which indicates to other news agencies the importance of the event. Levels are signified as green, yellow, orange, and red. Green being the least severe, and red the most. This helps other agencies know if they may need to publish their own headlines on the issue, or even rush their own reporters to the locale. Some handles may also use an accompanying photo which is to be posted beneath the information. Only news agencies and companies post!

(大桥) According to a fresh decree from the Fu Ren Imperial Court, the Fu Emperor has issued a declaration for bakers, that the price of wheat bread be fixed to the low price of 元3.50 per 2斤(1 kg). This new order is expected to delight many consumers as bread is a staple in 元国. However, bakers ostensibly will have to shoulder the burden of having to shave profits, which some in the markets say has forced competitors to downsize.

(CUNILL) Callistus II, dead at age 84. The Bishop of Tibur has passed away in the Arriaga in the Republic of Azilia while on a religious visit to his home city. The cause of death has not been officially released. Callistus II had reigned over the Radilian Catholic Church for the last ten years attempting to continue navigating the church in ways that would avoid scandals for the man who preferred to stay reserved and not make waves in the catholic community.

(HIEROSOLYMA) With the passing of Pope Callistus at the age of eighty four thousands of people have gathered outside the Church of the Holy Sepulcher to hold a prayer vigil. Flowers and lit candles were placed in makeshift memorials for the pope as people gathered outside the church and in plazas around the city to pray. Security has been heightened after threats were made by the elusive terrorist cult leader Urban over the internet toward those gathering to pray for the now deceased Holy Father.

(BAHSAD) Representatives from the Civic Faiths are publicly denying association with a Kuthi man who has been arrested in Hieroslyma for attempting to share copies of Prophet Samenov's Recitations. Prophet Samenov himself however says he will be "sharing a word or one-hundred with Third King Baldwin" about this arrest, and that he might "burn a thousand copies to keep one man free."

An incident on Mar Tripartito, the sea shared between the Republic of Azil, the Republic of Lomara, and the Holy Frankish Empire has resulted in injuries and the arrest of several Lomaran fishermen by Azilian authorities.

The confrontation occurred late in the afternoon when a group of Lomaran fishermen, reportedly conducting their routine fishing activities, inadvertently crossed into Azilian-controlled waters according to Azilian officials. The fishermen were apprehended after they ignored multiple warnings and refused to leave the area.

Azilian Coast Guard units were dispatched to the scene after receiving reports of the fishermen's presence. The situation quickly escalated, leading to a physical altercation. Authorities confirmed that several Azilian officers and fishermen sustained injuries during the confrontation, though no fatalities have been reported. Authorities have detained the Lomaran fishermen and impounded their vessels.

The Lomavren political establishment has expressed cautious relief following the decision by Azilian authorities to release seven of the nine Lomaran fishermen detained during the recent maritime incident on the Tripartite Sea. These waters, shared among the Republic of Lomara, the Republic of Azilia, and the Holy Frankish Empire, have long been disputed. While the repatriation of the seven fishermen from the Lomarian embassy in Cunill is seen as a positive step, Lomavren leaders remain firm in their rejection of Azilia's claims of authority over these waters.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs reiterated that Lomara does not recognize Azilian interpretations of sovereignty over the Tripartite Sea and called for the immediate release of the remaining two detained fishermen. "The release of our fishermen is a welcome development," said Lomara's Foreign Minister, Maris Enor. "However, we stand resolute in our position that Azilian jurisdiction over the Sea does not extend into the waters in which our records show our nationals have been arrested. The continued detention of two of our citizens is unacceptable, and we expect that there will be a facilitation of their immediate release."

"We urge Azilian authorities to conduct a fair and transparent investigation," Enor added. "Diplomatic efforts must continue to resolve this dispute peacefully to the satisfaction of the families of those affected by these latest actions."

In the capital, government officials and opposition leaders alike have voiced their positions. Opposition leader Kael Branon stated, "This incident underscores the importance of defending our maritime rights. We must ensure the safety of our industrial interests and maintain our sovereignty."

This act is symbolic of the divine compassion of the Emperor reflecting on personal loss.​

Speaking to The Financier, Grand Chancellor Liu said, "Our countries share similar goals for the development of our peoples and improving their livelihoods. The agreement we have today reflects a prosperous tomorrow and a good future beyond. North Istavania continues to prove itself as a reliable trade partner on the world stage."​

(HERRENHAUSEN, Saxe-Franken-Landshut) A music video circulating on the Hanseatic broadcast of M1 - Musik zuerst has a depiction of a lesbian couple as the focus of it. The song which has defenders saying the lyrics can apply to any relationship. Even still, in more Catholic and conservative Saxe-Franken and Landshut, there is an outcry for putting what some have called pornography on the TV and setting a bad example for young girls. The outcry has slowly grown and Hanseatic Cardinals at the conclave electing a new pope believe that good family friendly examples should be prioritized by modern society.
