[b][center]Unlawful Annexation[/center][/b]
With the coming of the new year, the eastern region of Deltoran Serranthia and the town of Faris bore witness to a revolt instigated by the native Khaitis. Those whom the Republic have sheltered, educated and protected for years under the terms of the Treaty of Faris 1798. During these unfortunate events, the sickening sacking of the town of Faris took place as those previously loyal to Deltora turned against us, their protectors. Fed and frenzied on lies from those that we had pledged to protect them from. 

The Empire of Survaek has illegally annexed legal Deltoran land, claiming us to be invaders and tyrants. For such famed scholars it is high convenient that the Treaty of Faris 1798 was not mentioned. This very treaty that has given legal rights to the land for over a 100 years has been illegally and unrightfully ignored, signed between the government of Deltora and the independent dukes of the regions now so called Deltoran Serranthia in the year 1798, which in return for citizenship and protection from the thrashing Empire of Survaek, would become rightful and lawful Deltoran land. For such an unabashed and unfounded breech of the treaty and rights, the empire reveals before the world it's expansionist ways and unabashed ignorance to world law.  

As of the date, no Deltoran goods shall reach Survaekom shores. An embargo of the Empire of Survaek is now in effect in the face of unfounded, and illegal expansionism. Until such a time where eastern Deltoran Serranthia is returned to it's legal owner, the Republic of Deltora and it's peoples, the embargo will persist.

[center][b]Partition of Kelric?[/b][/center]
When asked upon the matter of the partition of Kelric put forward by the Mille-Sessau government. Prime Minister Edouard Geiger responded with the following statement:

[i]"We will not support any petition put forward that would threaten long standing allies within the Sociatatem. Kelric sovereignty will be secured against a power of whom we know little by their own designs. Our questioning into the militant actions of the nation against Etellia have yet to be answered and have been met with only silence, and as such we can afford to give no ground to those of who we know not their intentions."[/i]

Meanwhile, attempts to integrate the native Makitorian people into the Republic of Deltora have been met with success. Efforts are being taken to educate and provide shelters for the islands natural inhabitants as-well as the Deltoran colonists taking to the island for it's resources. Sharing the light of liberty with all, much as they had done in Deltoran Serranthia some many years before.
