Soci-control of the population has progressed into a stage that we can largely coerce the people to do as we need to on a grand-scale. More personally, individualist, soci-control will be our next goal. ▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇ have been hard at work in that aforementioned area for sometime now. The next audit report will detail their research. Civil Protection, the police apparatus under the management of Overwatch, has been especially efficient in soci-control and forceful coercion. Rates of ‘anti-citizen’ behavior have heavily dropped since the last audit. The issue of dissent is no longer a major issue as we saw three years ago. The propaganda front, headed by ▇▇▇ in the Bureau of Enlightenment, needs to pick up its progress. While she has been successful in the censorship of the media and the filtering of unauthorized info entering into the population, the domestic propaganda production has been lacking in good rhetoric and theme. ▇▇▇ will have to be removed soon and replaced by ▇▇▇.

City One will undergo another series of heavy refurbishing and construction. A new shipment of ten million ‘citizens’ will be arriving within the next month. To future proof the site, we will be adding in new redundant systems and infrastructure. In all, the city will be self-sufficient in its operations fully without needing more shipments of outside supply. The space-elevator will be also outfitted with a new extensive repair-section. Beware that the city’s storage system will be heavily refurbished and expanded. Make sure to move all supply to the temporary storage units for now. ::>[/color][/indent][/indent][/indent] [hr][/cell][/row][/table] [table=bordered][row][cell][hr] [center][color=00a651][u]Strengths[/u][/color][/center] [color=00a651]Overwatch -[/color] [color=FFE5A4]Overwatch, commonly also called Dispatch, refers to the central self-aware A.I that manages the military and police apparatus. It is a highly effective and brutal machine. Everyone, down to the citizens and as high as the CmB itself, fears Overwatch and its commands. Overwatch prides pure efficiency and its execution of operations are highly smooth compared to other entities. The whole CmB oversees Overwatch to ensure that nothing is amiss.[/color] [color=00a651]Big Ol’ Warehouse -[/color] [color=FFE5A4]This planet is home to a vast complex of storage units, warehouses, dumping grounds and abandoned facilities all of whom aren't on any official records. While some are known to contain gigantic amounts of mundane files or vast surpluses of military equipment, there are a suspicious amount of unmarked containers missing data entries known only to the highest command.[/color] [color=00a651]'CONTROL' -[/color] [color=FFE5A4]The whole existence of this brutal police state was a direct result from D21’s experiments into social control. Project Control was fired up as the masterpiece for D21 in a long-line of smaller projects beforehand. This is their final masterpiece before their timely end.[/color] [hr][hr] [center][u][color=9e0b0f]Weaknesses[/color][/u][/center] [color=9e0b0f]The Benefactors -[/color] [color=FFE5A4]CmB, translated as “Our Benefactors,” refers to the all-powerful six-person committee in the Universal Union. In propaganda, the plural version is always used, with the singular-noun, “Our Benefactor,” never-ever utilized. This is done to portray a united and strong leadership. In reality, every single person in the central committee can’t exactly agree on a plan of action. Everyone has their own theory on what to do, and that often than not delays decisions.[/color] [color=9e0b0f]The Loyalist -[/color] [color=FFE5A4]The majority of the population are either apathetic, distrusting of the government, or likewise. In order to ID those who are loyal from those who are not, a loyalist system has been installed. At the very bottom is the Supporter Grade 1 and it goes up to Supporter Grade 3. From there - if you are proved to be a true loyalist - you can get the rank of Collaborator Grade 1 and gain entry into the Lower Party, and the system goes on and on. As you can imagine, only a small percentage of people are loyalists.[/color] [color=9e0b0f]Isolated Blacksite -[/color] [color=FFE5A4]Not a soul knows this place exists. Only those in the highest seat of power and those in the deepest bowels of D21 have knowledge of the black-site. Sadly, the clandestine nature of City One has caused the planet as a whole to be isolated from wider trade and economy.[/color][hr][/cell][/row][/table][/hider] [hr] [hider=Demokratische Republik Valgsland] [table=bordered][row][cell][hr] [color=white][sup][h1] [center][img]https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/87/GDR_black_seal.svg[/img][/center] [center][color=9e0b0f]Demokratische Republik Valgsland[/color][/center] [/h1][/sup][/color] [hr] [indent][indent][color=9e0b0f][h3]Declaration of the Worker's State[/h3][/color][/indent][/indent][indent][indent][indent][color=9e0039]Is it come to a certain point that we find most prudent, if most certainly necessary that we absolve ourselves of the current order of things.

The state will need an increase of six-hundred percent of current output in every industrial field to meet current demands and for future projected needs as the population grows (including migration). In lighter news, agriculture, ferrous and nonferrous mining, seems to be decent enough as leftover assets from the megacorporations. The committee has observed that Valgsland, in order to be properly classified as a modern nation, will have to somehow rapidly progress its technological and industrial sectors.[/color][/indent][/indent][/indent] [hr][/cell][/row][/table] [table=bordered][row][cell][hr] [center][color=00a651][u]Strengths[/u][/color][/center] [color=00a651]Visions for a Better World -[/color] [color=FFE5A4]The world is an unfair and cruel place. That much is true, but the unifying ideals of a fairer society are strong. It is hope that drives these people forward and into great danger. A better tomorrow is possible, and the road to that tomorrow will be long and unforgiving. The comradery among the workers is extreme and nothing will break their spirits. Solidarity Forever.[/color] [hr][hr] [center][u][color=9e0b0f]Weaknesses[/color][/u][/center] [color=9e0b0f]Blackwaters World -[/color] [color=FFE5A4]The planet of Valgsland, a German majority world, has been exploited by various megacorporations for its rich deposits and land. The greedy corporations never bothered with developing any form of industry or proper civilian infrastructure but pure extraction. Now that the corporations left with their massive pullout of all their assets, Valgsland stands as highly poor and underdeveloped.[/color] [hr][/cell][/row][/table] [/hider]
