1966

 * Empire of Great Japan: Japan continues to build up their military and improve infrastructure. President Tokugawa Masako begins invading Thailand. In Korea, 'Kim Doo-kwan' (Makoto Tokugawa) continues to spread pro-fascist-imperialist propaganda throughout the nation and the Korean military is built up, and aid is sent to help Japan against Thailand. In China, President 'Huang Ming' (Tokugawa Yoshimitsu) has the Chinese military built up and also sends aid to help Japan against Thailand. In Japan, Fuji Speedway finishes construction this year and is opened; its first major race is planned sometime next year.
 * Bolivia's ally Argentina crushes all of Chile, allowing it to send reinforcements to the Bolivians. With extra help, it manages to push through the Andes harder and faster than ever before. They begin to near Lima, where the major siege will take place.
 * New Arabia: The war with Yemen continues (can I please get some help with algorithms?) Several important mosques are burnt to the ground by the government. Government involvement is kept very secret and a number of important religious hardliners are tried and sentenced to death for the crime. The government apologises but states that due to consumption of produce in the war effort it will not be possible to rebuild them until the war is over. Till then a temporary tent is set up for the purpose of worship in the city square. New Arabia asks the Third Reich for help in the development of fighter and bomber planes for the war effort.
 * Swedish-Finnish Diplomacy: We pledge 20 Saab 35 Drakens, the jewel of our Flygvapnet, to be given to the Arabian Air Force, to assist them in their battle. We believe that the Great Third Reich will help assist an ally like New Arabia.
 * The Reich did, check the Reich's game post below.
 * New Arabia graciously thanks its generous allies.
 * The Third Reich amps up the military and the Reich also continues to fund National Socialist parties in Latvia and Estonia, so these two nations can be taken over by National Socialist coups with German military backing. The Reich also continues a military crackdown on democratic dissidents in Lithuania to keep the new Lithuanian puppet state firmly under German control. The German aircraft manufacturing firms also agree to manufacture fighter and bomber planes for the Arabian airforce as part of a multi-billion reichmark defence contract.
 * Sweden-Finland: With Iceland refusing to cooperate (well, Iceland's player, or the mods, haven't said anything about an Invasion of Iceland), 10 Saab 35 Drakens take off in the middle of the night on January 2, 1966, and begin firebombing Reykajvik, and other nearby localities. Swedish, Finnish and Norwegian troops plan to storm the beach of Southwest Iceland (Reykajvik has a very mild climate for such a northern city, in fact, it almost never goes above -20C, in fact, the weather in Oslo and Helsinki are even colder, while Stockholm is only slightly colder), should the Icelandic Kingdom not peacefully surrender.
 * France: Military capacity increases and testing continues. The teaching of English in England is outlawed entirely, making French the only language. People calling for English people to be allowed in Parliament are silenced. France extends a friendly hand the the Celtic Union and wishes to see the inclusion of Ireland in the country. It also prepares for the absorbsion of Wallonia. They offer help to Sweden Finland in their invasion if required. Native English are now no longer allowed to have more than one child. Their deportation continues.
 * Swedish-Finnish Diplomacy: French involvement isn't instantly neccessary, though we appreciate the offer, and ask for French forces to come in for back up if needed.
 * France: This is acknowledged.

1967

 * Empire of Great Japan: Japan continues to build up their military and improve infrastructure. President Tokugawa Masako continues invading Thailand. In Korea, 'Kim Doo-kwan' (Makoto Tokugawa) continues to spread pro-fascist-imperialist propaganda throughout the nation and the Korean military is built up, and aid is sent to help Japan against Thailand. In China, President 'Huang Ming' (Tokugawa Yoshimitsu) has the Chinese military built up and also sends aid to help Japan against Thailand. In Japan, Fuji Speedway sees its first major race taking place there by the All-Japan Grand Touring Car Championship.
 * France: The new supersonic aircraft "Hermès" has its first maiden flight from Paris.
 * Sweden-Finland: The Swedish-Finnish Army invades Iceland, and begins to attack Reykjavik, and other southern areas. The Iceland Defense Force continues fighting against the Swedish invaders. However, Iceland's small military of 4,000 is not much of match for an invading force of 25,000, along with 200 tanks and 250 APV's. However, militia and local police raise the number to at least 10,000. Still, the island nation is expected to be conquered by the end of the year.
 * The Third Reich amps up the military and the Reich also continues to fund National Socialist parties in Latvia and Estonia, so these two nations can be taken over by National Socialist coups with German military backing. This accumulates in the Reich supporting a National Socialist coup in Latvia. The Reich also continues a military crackdown on democratic dissidents in Lithuania to keep the new Lithuanian puppet state firmly under German control. Germany also begins stationing more troops in Borneo to invade Malaysia. The German East Indies Fleet is also built up to become one of the world's largest navies, in preparation for the invasion of Malaysia and keeping the east Indies populace under German control.
 * Bolivia's plater RWG retires.

1968

 * Empire of Great Japan: Japan continues to build up their military and improve infrastructure. President Tokugawa Masako continues invading Thailand. In Korea, 'Kim Doo-kwan' (Makoto Tokugawa) continues to spread pro-fascist-imperialist propaganda throughout the nation and the Korean military is built up, and aid is sent to help Japan against Thailand. In China, President 'Huang Ming' (Tokugawa Yoshimitsu) has the Chinese military built up and also sends aid to help Japan against Thailand. Soon another racing circuit is planned as well, one in Korea and one in China.
 * France: A major new project begins to improve infrastructure in France after serious floods affect Southern England and Northern France. Pro-French activity in Wallonia is funded. English activists are executed after boarding a ship carrying people to India.
 * The Third Reich amps up the military and the Reich supports a National Socialist coup in Estonia. The Reich builds more military bases in Eastern Europe to keep the Reich's puppet states firmly under control. Germany continues stationing more troops in Borneo ready to invade Malaysia. The German navy continues to be expanded, making it the 3rd largest in the world, behind the USA and Japan. The German navy, though, has the most advanced submarines thanks to the Reich's unrivalled submarine technology.

1969

 * Empire of Great Japan: Japan continues to build up their military and improve infrastructure. President Tokugawa Masako continues invading Thailand soon finally conquering the nation. In Korea, 'Kim Doo-kwan' (Makoto Tokugawa) continues to spread pro-fascist-imperialist propaganda throughout the nation and the Korean military is built up. In China, President 'Huang Ming' (Tokugawa Yoshimitsu) has the Chinese military built up.
 * France: The tangle of pirate and government media is finally sorted out with raids on pirate radio vessels and shutting down of unauthorised television channels and newspapers. Both France and England now have an organised system of French media. France sends more probes to the moon. The military is improved. Pro-French activity continues to be funded in Wallonia.
 * Sweden-Finland: Iceland is fully inaugurated into the Andra Stormaktstiden, where Icelandic can be spoken in public, but all government matters must be spoken in Swedish. (Although plans to allow a Norwegian alternative are permitted.) Greenlandic bases of the last holdouts of the Icelandic Defense Forces are destroyed by collaborating Icelandic gunships, now piloted by Swedish Naval Commander, Harold Andersson. Now with Greenland and Iceland under control, the Swedish now rule Scandanavia and the North Atlantic. The Säkerhetspolisen (Security Police, or its common abbreviation, Säpo) is developed, which will have full intelligence of what goes on in the Swedish-Finnish Empire. Pirate radio and television is rooted out, most of which is located in Norway, where the owners are punished harsher than in France, with resistance leaders given the death penalty, which has been brought back (the death penalty was abolished in Sweden in 1910) in 1963, when Sweden and Finland were united.
 * The Third Reich amps up the military and the Reich builds more military bases in Eastern Europe to keep the Reich's puppet states firmly under control. Germany invades Malaysia and Singapore.

1970
'''Riots break out in several African cities and spread uncontrollably across the northern half of the continent. In rural areas they are limited. '''(Seriously, the colonies are due a revolt, even with such oppresive regimes.)

Major floods cause many deaths in Vietnam.


 * Empire of Great Japan: Japan continues to build up their military and improve infrastructure. President Tokugawa Masako continues invading Thailand soon finally conquering the nation. In Korea, 'Kim Doo-kwan' (Makoto Tokugawa) continues to spread pro-fascist-imperialist propaganda throughout the nation and the Korean military is built up. In China, President 'Huang Ming' (Tokugawa Yoshimitsu) has the Chinese military built up. Meanwhile Japan, China and Korea all send aid to help clean up Vietnam and help the affected people.
 * Sweden-Finland: More pirate TV and radio stations are shut down all over the Empire, with harsh penalties, including the death penalty to be instated for the Ringleader, 60-year-old Asbjørn Sunde, a Norwegian rebel against the Swedish rule. A reward of 10,000 Krona is offered, to those who turn in the criminal.
 * The Third Reich amps up the military and the Reich continues its invasion of Malaysia and Singapore. They ask for military aid from its allies.
 * France will provide as much aid as possible, although it is currently occupied by the riots in Africa.
 * France: Large amounts of troops using the latest technology are deployed to Africa to stop the riots. Since most rioters are exactly that, rioters, they are easily beaten but this leaves a core of organised guerrillas which will take longer to disperse. Inland areas such as Chad are still in a state of anarchy.

1971
'''Riots continue in Africa and start to become more organised. Inspired by the events there, other colonies may soon revolt...'''

Oil is discovered off the coast of Scotland and Norway.

 * Sweden-Finland: With the news of oil being discovered off the Norwegian Coast, there is an immediete effort to set up multiple oil rigs, which will be set up by next year. Propaganda is broadcasted all over television and radio, encouraging Norwegians to help the Empire and get good paying jobs, by getting to work on the oil rigs, though the people in control will be Swedish or Finnish. Svenska-Finska Petroleum Exploration AB is set up as a government property of the Swedish-Finnish Empire, and offers to sell oil to many other countries. This is predicted to be a huge boom for the economy in the future.

1972

 * Fascist Italy destroys the revolts in italian Africa, since every city was under a high supervision of the blackshirts. Meanwhile, slaves are now being killed, instead of receiving work.

 * France: Begins using its diplomatic influence in North-West Europe. It creates two referendums within puppet states; in Ireland whether or not to join the Celtic Union fully and in Wallonia whether to join France. These will both take about a year to finish. France also asks other nations about the re-starting of the Olympics, a chance for all nations to converge for two weeks every four years (and for fascist ones to show off their superior athletes).
 * Japan, China, and Korea agrees to the re-starting of the Olympics.

1974
Italian fascism shatters.


 * Empire of Great Japan: Japan continues to build up their military and improve infrastructure. In Korea, 'Kim Doo-kwan' (Makoto Tokugawa) continues to spread pro-fascist-imperialist propaganda throughout the nation and the Korean military is built up.

 * France: All rumours of the problems in Italy are dismissed as lies and any possible methods of getting the news through are censored. Troops are sent to major cities because of an increased risk of "terrorism". Victory day celebrations this year are especially diverting. Wallonia's vote to join France is met with much celebration. Ireland also votes to fully join the Celtic Union. As a gift France gives them the Isle of Man (a Celtic nation).(See talk.)
 * Sweden-Finland: News of the problems in Italy are repeatedly censored (Will finish post later.)
