[b]CENTRAN[/b]: A diplomat named György Andrássy in the [b][color=blue]Second Boletarian Republic[/color][/b] releases his Treatise called [i]The New Nation[/i]. A political documentation on Western Centran politics and the inevitable rise of the Second Boletarian Republic as the greatest nation the world has ever seen will inevitably inflate Boletarian nationalism. The book is intended to be published in every bookstop in Boletaria and even Prime Minister Lodzinki has an early copy.

[b]I Imperial Corps[/b] of the [b][color=green]Osladian Empire[/color][/b] conducts maneuvers on the border of the Hurzland. These maneuvers, mostly armor maneuvers with the new O-265 Strovna and Mulnya-205 tankettes are half military and half political. Pro-Osladians in the outskirts of Hurzlandian towns crowd the dusty roads and wave Osladian flags as the tanks pass. Osladian tankers, considered the best in the world, wave from their cupolas as they pass by.

[b]FARESIA[/b]: The 30,000+ soldiers of [b]I Infantry Corps[/b] of the [b][color=yellow]Imperial Republic of Fuso[/color][/b] finishes establishing it's garrison throughout the city. Equally distributed, the city of Wuwei is a bastion of life in the Yuxiang territory. Held together by a fragile supply chain to the west, the city slowly started to turn about. Fusan soldiers patrol by day and night. Crime is handled with ruthless efficiency.

Off the coast of the [b][color=purple]Kingdom of Soroya[/color][/b] the destroyer [i]Snellius[/i], while on coastal patrol, strikes a mine left over from the Terrible War at 1157 hours. By 1213 the ship's bow is dipping beneath the waves and she's listing to port. The captain reluctantly orders abandon ship and the 119 men are rescued at 1321 by the [i]Rotte[/i], who was also on patrol just up the coast.

[b]Tuesday, March 2nd[/b]
Sitting on a mostly inactive tectonic plate, both the [b][color=gray]Republic of Kalpia[/color][/b] and the [b][color=aba000]Republic of Soreno[/color][/b] had been wary of earthquakes for decades. The [b]Mistburn Quake[/b] lasted only minutes, but the destruction it wrought was visible from Mistburn to Soreno. Hundreds were dead. Thousands wounded. The [i]Hazgurk Factory Complex[/i] in northern Kalpia was torn asunder, with 1,200 workers trapped inside.

[b]Wednesday, March 3rd[/b]
The nation of [b]Aydina[/b], stuck straight between the growing [b][color=maroon]Grand Survaek Empire[/color][/b] and the [b][color=red]Empire of Mille-Sessau[/color][/b] pledges that that it will not join the Tervasan League (further threatening Sessau) and draw membership of the Tervasan League of other Tervasan states if Survaek promises not to further increase the size of the Survaekom Imperial Army.

[b]Thursday, March 4th[/b]
Civilians from the outskirts of Wuwei are admitted to see General Tujoki in the [b]I Infantry Corps[/b] headquarters in Wuwei. They inform him that huge Yuxiang Clique soldiers are headed not to Wuwei, but around it, in a huge encirclement. Given that for reasons unknown General Tujoki never ordered scouts abroad or a frontline stretching beyond the perimeter of Wuwei, he was completely oblivious to this.
