In External Affairs:
Two new embassies were opened last month from the Rejected Realms, and Hyrule. Both ambassadors were properly greeted with assorted booze. Not that any of us here are alcoholics, of course...
In the Ministry of Defense:
Taijitu's Army conquered Warzone Africa last week! It was all part of a training exercise. Of Crazed apparently felt that too many cookies and too little exercise was making our troops a bit soft around the middle. It's important to keep our troops in shape. Speaking of which, the army is always looking for more people! So if you happen to have a UN nation laying around, stop on over and volunteer! No head shaving required.
Other Ministry news:
The Recruiting office is a big job. Several hundred new nations are born every single day, and telegrams have to be sent out to every single one of them. But it's vital to the success of the region, because that's how we get all those new nations to join up. The current count in our fair Taijitu is 1111 nations!!!
