[I]America and NATO countries attack Libya without warning or declaration of war, killing Civilians and indiscriminately destroying infrastructure. Egypt sends Libya a formally worded declaration of war[/I] Libya: [b]"FUCKING EGYPTIANS"[/b]
Egypt is proud to announce several key milestones in our wonderful Republic's annals of history. A further alignment with NATO and a strong alliance with the founding nations, sweeping legislation to increase the freedoms of the Egyptian people and protect those freedoms from those who would encroach or dismantle them, and the most ambitious of all: The Qattara Depression Project! Beginning in Winter of this year, Egypt will begin the groundwork for this spectacular feat of engineering which is projected to bring peace and stability to the greater middle east.

Flamethrower units continue to burn through the veins. The ill rise, attacking everyone they see. - [highlight]Ashens spreads to the borders of Poland. The government has set up checkpoints to take in refugees and to quarantine them for a long process. Border towns have succumbed to the smog and are considered lost. Prior, Poland forces have set up defenses and watches over signs of radiation.[/highlight] - Socialist influence among Latin America increases. With trade circulating each day. - The United Nations have set up a meeting in New York.

In a steam roll with minimum casualties, Soviets successfully repelled infected and stopped the smog for the next five months.[/b] - Chairmen of of the Council of Ministers Mikhail Kovalyov is reported to have experience signs of illness. Three weeks later, he was found dead by relatives. The Council of Ministers have no statements as of this day. - A Iranian named Mehdi Hashemi was rumored to have intel regarding an arms deals between Iran and a western country. - War between Egypt and Libya explodes as extensive casualties on both sides. Several of Gaddafi's officers have been killed in a planned firefight from the Egyptian Army. The US assists in the war. [img]http://i.cubeupload.com/Uw6iyM.png[/img][img]https://facepunch.com/image.php?u=542727&dateline=1499110281[/img] - The French Republic were notified of the Chernobyl disaster weeks after, news exploding in Europe. The President of France contacted NATO-affiliated West Germany and announced a plan to reform the Siegfried line constructed during World War 1. France assured that they would provide major funds to the project alongside the UK. West Germany reluctantly agreed despite the difficulty as many bunkers and defenses were torn down after the war. France Armed Forces and West Germany's military cooperated on constructing new lines, fortifying the line with new materials. Though proved challenging, reinforcing the old structure with new materials was possible. With construction still ongoing, citizens grow insecure. - France focuses on developing their own tech, finding better ways to make living better. They eye on computer hardware, while printed circuit boards exist their hardware weren't visible on large projects. France took on a large amount of research studying components capable of connecting through conductive tracks. A couple of months down the line France pulled out a redefined circuit board that is more stable and reliable. In their military section, France authorizes better armor for armored units. R&D cooperate with NATO allies to improve the AMX-30. Unfortunately engineers enter a conflict of interest to find out which of their ideas would better fit their armor improvement. Resulting in armor that would be exotic at face value but impractical in execution. While the UK release public information about their promising hardware France heads in the same direction, requesting several heads in the computer industry. Designing a microprocessor at 32-bit, while not as superior than UK's 64 bit they can soon come up with something more. The government also creates a program for biotechnology. People turn confused, hearing rumors of the idea of enhancing humans. Scientists look into GMOs and commit studies on potential effects for Humans. Paid volunteers are sent to labs, supposed to take an injection that would give them greater resistance to disease. After a week in testing the volunteers seemingly went great, immune systems enhanced all the way. Then, the volunteers broke down, dying of illness in the next day. Diverting funds to several science teams on finding a way how to make an adapter to convert heat into light. One team puts a greater heat concentration and as soon as they tested the adapter the device malfunctioned, busting in flames. The team attempts to find a reason for the cause. Their last action on technology involves helping the military's infantry. R&D easily grouped cameras and sensors, producing a prototype device. Several volunteers tested the prototype in military exercises, after the exercise the volunteers stated how useful it was they could see their units and can figure out what's the distance from the target. - France starts a work program in an effort to reduce unemployment, through public projects. These projects would renovate stuff from World War 2 alongside fixing up old schools and bridges. In the weeks, jobs are taken in multiple categories.

After the incident following, Burkina contacts Gaddafi, granting him and his family asylum. After witnessing the death of his two infant sons, Gaddafi wishes to stay and lead the battle against Egypt and requests that his family should go. Gaddafi's family were sent to the country, working as government advisers to Faso til the situation between Egypt and Libya ends. - African Workers are hired for construction of railroads, attempting to make transportation easier so shipments can be distributed across the country. While construction on transportation has gotten slow over several months and flow of supplies waning down for March. That goes without saying the country has made progress on trams. The genetically modified crops, minerals, and regular grain are exported on due schedule. Libyan companies are allowed to relocate due to the war putting a strain on business. As a result Libyan companies head for Faso and generate supply and demand, helping workers and the people. - Burkina Faso contacts the USSR for a trade for military tanks and weapons. The USSR agrees to the trade, sending several shipments to the African country, a reasonable amount of T-54/T-55, easier to handle than other tanks while giving moderate protection. Ak-47s and 74s were given to the government of Faso, wishing them best of luck in their efforts to develop their people. With agriculture improvements and the recent breakthrough has gave hope. The problem remains on pesticide, the government discovered bacterium found in caterpillars and butterflies, Bacillus thuringiensis. The bacterium was placed as a solution and quickly poor crops had a fighting chance. With focus on the rural areas of Faso, the republic offers jobs to foreign people capable of getting electric infrastructure while training its own. Arriving, several foreign came from all across the globe. American, French, and German. These workers grouped together on the farming/mining areas, the locals studied their techniques on how they worked. Spending expensive equipment from the world, IBM machines were brought to the country for better management and are kept to plan for the future as Faso develops. IBMs are set up in public buildings and ready. - After the failure of the Court system, Sankara heard the criticism and met with several officials to establish a successor. The successor would be known as Burkinabe People's Court, emphasizing on stopping corruption. The Court demonstrated strong commitment, individuals putting a stop to crime whenever possible, somewhat too extreme. In examples the Court's influence would spring outside of its system, causing vigilantism to take place arresting criminals and then executing them. Meanwhile Faso attempted to bring more access to the clinics, water and sanitation to poorer areas of the country. Constructor with the resources they had needed to make shortcuts and compromises just for people to get some sort of access.

Soon enough their worries were right. The trace of radiation led to the army evacuating people near the borders, putting up defenses and checkpoints. In addition, watch patrols are scheduled.

[/quote] - With reforming the country as a major step, the Head of State announces 'The People's Common Good Initiative' the Government headstarts urban agriculture, a big step for the people. Meanwhile a move that the entire party can agree to is the construction of large fallout shelters in case of environment hazard. Construction is started one week after October, with supplies of steel and concrete in large quantities. Ground shelters are built for rural areas of the country, but are less prioritized from the Government, focusing on major population.

Sometimes even distribution made shipment errors in the wrong places. In addition, Romania expands and even refines their railways so they can collect rural community crops faster. Factories such as munitions, steel mills, and concrete are ordered for construction so supplies can be made per demand. Observing the rate of their areas at risk of flooding, Romania decides to build a national water pipeline, the main purpose is to ensure clean water for the population, also prevent drought in the process. These investments ensure protection across people, however take a toll among the country's budget limits.

They include a series of processing and purification centers to ensure that the water stays clean, with locks to shut it down should things go awry. [/quote] - A neighbor to Ukraine. Romanian Science and Clean up crews are sent down alongside armed guards. This group was titled 'Hotel Transylvania'. - In a clever move, Romania begins a student exchange program, their reason is to ensure today's youth can be taught useful skills and help out their country in the long run. Students from Romania travels countries such as the United States, France, Cuba, USSR, and the UK. Despite the initial feel to a different culture, Romanian students grew curious. They walked, observing their surroundings. Unlike back home things were calm, relaxed.

By the start of November, the Prime Minister of Sweden has released a statement that the country will vow to support Finland, Denmark, and Norway in event of a crisis or in times of war. In addition the country invite these countries to an alliance titled the Scandinavian Defense & Protection Alliance. At the very least Norway and Denmark have accumulated interest in cooperating with each other while Finland was somewhat uncertain. With the USSR still holding some influence in the politics of Finland, Finland remained neutral on their stance. Meanwhile Swedish diplomats approach to Romania for talks regarding the removal of Cold War hostility. By the end of March, Norway and Denmark have accepted Sweden offer. - Swedish Armed Forces secretly go into full alert, with the increase of military activity the Government cites these course of actions are simply “routine drills throughout the nation.” Despite this, citizens remain cautious and skeptical. As the radiation continues to expand towards Europe, several people migrate to the Americas. Knowing the inevitable, the military cooperate with Civil Defense Agency to send shipments of general supplies including water and conserved food. Fallout shelters are stocked. - After the development of new CBRN equipment the Government work rapidly to invent a flexible body armor to fit with their suits. Swedish teams gathered together and described their tech as a sketchy fabric that can save a person's life from a bullet. Compacted into a kevlar-like torso vest, the armor fit the CBRN suit just as expected. But the armor itself was the same as standard kevlar. Meanwhile the Air Force needed an aircraft hybrid, specifically a Saab Fighter/Bomber. The military R&D worked hard to produced a design for heavy hitting and produced a promising product. Despite the efforts, shortcuts were made. The aircraft after being put in operation suffered a turbo engine design flaw, causing it to shutter. And the wings were prone to slow down.

[/quote] - Across the nation, agencies distributed their CBRN equipment to populations, major, small, urban, and rural. Because of the situation in mainland Europe, CDA is given resources to build additional fallout shelters. CDA made sure to keep up with population and estimate what type of shelters needed to be made.

Back in the Siegfried Lane, supplies can be bought without struggle thanks to the UK's financial aid. Meanwhile a student exchange program from Romania was accepted. In a few months as the program started, Romanian students arrived via airplane. - Meanwhile the United Kingdom continues to recruit abled men and women in the Armed Forces despite a slow rate but in return are hiring people, creating jobs. - The UK by the end of the year focuses on their computer technology while finding an effort for bio/medicine and energetics. While computers such as ARM pulling out a new machine on the same level as an IBM, bio medicine has yet to gave a boost among the science field. - The panic across Europe regarding Chernobyl has made the public uneasy every month. UK has taken matters concerning nuclear power in general. Margret Thatcher starts an educational campaign lined with the properties of radiation and instructions how it works. Meanwhile functional nuclear power plants are to be checked on a weekly basis, and are ordered to be refined by reactor crews. In the following order, crews are given supplies to upgrade reactors though expensive. This will ensure they're updated and aren't faulty. And soon enough, reactor crews did.

However on the condition is that the US government has the right to revoke these privileges to US military/allied military receivers. Despite this condition, users are nevertheless thankful for this benefit. However not so much for the Warsaw Pact. The US Armed Forces have authorized their air force to continue assisting Egypt's war against Libya using F-117 Nighthawks. In bombings Nighthawks strike key Libyan SAM defenses on the month of November. The United States released a public statement regarding the war, stating that the US has the capability to strike wherever in the globe regardless of radar defenses. After notifying the news, the US give support to the Egyptian Army, dispatching armored and infantry formation with the full set of Abrams tanks. Military officials from the country serve as advisers in Egypt, training Egypt's recruits into learning how to utilize combined arms. - Reaganomics continues with the Government printing out more money in order to make US goods competitive. By putting liquid assets to the market the US would hope to make goods more competitive. As the world develops goods and military arms, the US would level with other countries and get a slice of the shares getting bought and sold. - Investing in their air force department once more, the US attempted to spring out a variant of the F-15E Strike Eagle called Silent Eagle. This would be a stealth aircraft to gain air superiority over enemies. After performing test runs, Silent Eagle dispatched its hidden weapons easily. The United States intent to get more satellites, their purpose unknown. NASA in the months build several objects designed for a few rockets. After a series of engine runs, a launch was scheduled in the upcoming months. Workers observed and preparations to the rockets gave the all clear, the rocket launched, but soon an error had been made, exploding. [img]https://i.cubeupload.com/vyCjec.png[/img] [img]https://facepunch.com/image.php?u=671233&dateline=1416610073[/img] - After a deal of agreements between the United States and UK, Egypt's crude oil are exported through tankers. By the end of the January oil has been received by the two countries. Egypt expands talks with Saudi Arabia, pushing for an alliance in order to get the Warsaw Pact out of the Middle East. With the Fahd of Arabia, he wouldn't go for an alliance but was willing to work together in the effort to keep other entities out of the region's business. After getting support, Egypt talked to a shit ton of countries like Oman, Jordan, Tunisia, Morocco, Kuwait, Lebanon, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Pakistan, and even goddamn Somalia. Out of all countries Egypt offered with: Qatar, Oman and United Arab Emirates accepted while Morocco and Jordan was interested but not committed to the idea. The rest were indifferent. - After the US and UK sent military advisers over to the country, the Republic of Egypt cooperated and planned a major operation to capture Benghazi. These officials would launch Operation Rising Tide by the end of the month as soon as possible. The Operation will determine if Egypt gains a foothold in liberating Libya. Meanwhile air and naval forces bombed key Libya areas as morale loss, exhausting the Libyan Army. - Egypt continued their previous projects, making sure they're finished then move on to other things. LMCFBR. Studying for improvements on the prototype they made a breakthrough. After a series of trial and error the prototype activated, fueled by heat for generating electricity. Construction among Project سماء was completed, getting a railgun system to work. The only problem is that it needed to have an abundant amount of power on the scale of a large city to energize a launch into orbit. Crews attempted to work on their vapor compression. However, the system needed an extraordinary compressing device to make the desalinizing process process perfect. Until then, teams were working on building the compression device for their project. - The Government of Egypt green lit the Qattara Depression Project, something that could develop Qattara by flooding it. Construction began straight away with resources being diverted to the project. By March, the project was slow and workers had found out there was a shortage of resources. Terrorism in Egypt had worsen over the months, which took innocent lives in the process. Egypt cracked down on terrorists, giving more funding to local and military police so they had better chances of flushing them out. With funding rising, a moderate amount of arrest on account of terrorism and murders committed over religious reasons. In the process female genital mutilation, gender based discrimination were outlawed, increasing punishment for those offenses. Upholding Nasser Era rulings, laws were made regarding women's rights. One of the drastic moves called for the reversal of the law that required wearing veils.

After the deal. A few weeks passed, from the distance a Pauk-class corvette arrived. Equipped with 4 torpedo tubes, air surface search radar Cuba thanks their ally. With their recent MANPADs, Cuban officers are ordered to train with them, then later teaching soldiers how to operate them. Despite a 'little' accident regarding two members and an officer, training courses in the military are handled professionally as teams collect data to R&D. - In the National Assembly of People's Power, the agency enacted an agriculture adjustment regulation to ensure farmers can receive steady income and manage to help out in food markets and sugar production. A few days later they allowed 10% of sugar production open to private investments. Along the coasts, construction teams are planned to build resort buildings for tourism. In the process jobs are taken left and right, rapidly speeding up construction. By March, resorts were made, crafted decently with tourists coming at a brisk pace. Meanwhile, Cuban workers are pulling supplies from trucks, expanding their harbor in hopes of getting a shipbuilding industry. By the week expansion was owed to abled people who were withdrawn from Angola. - The Ministry of Foreign Affairs joined Romania's Student Exchange Program with the purpose of Cubans learning engineering. As alliance form throughout the globe, Cuba contacts Nicaragua and offers them a military co op for both militaries to drill. [img]http://i.cubeupload.com/oA4HwS.png[/img][img]https://facepunch.com/image.php?u=456754&dateline=1499562942[/img] - The USSR made a deal with Cuba, interested in buying more sugar and coffee in their fields. Soon after, large quantities of both arrived on the country's doorstep, landing safely. The shipments are used for goods to the people as buyers flow in. With supplies stocked other problems remain as Ukraine gets overwhelmed by the smog. The constant maintenance and handling puts a drain on the economy. Their action was to look to the United Nations for support in stopping this crisis before it gets any worse. The UN General Assembly will come to a meeting and discuss action regarding the situation. In response to Egypt's declaration of war against Libya, the USSR declares sanctions to the Republic of Egypt. - With the clean up units losing steam and smog becoming denser the USSR are forced to send in military forces equipped with NBC gear and armored divisions. In additio,n more flamethrower units are dispatched alongside the others, entering the massive exclusion zone. On the day of December, 25 1986, an Operation launched titled 'Hard Winter'. In that role forces are to contain any dangerous threat and keep the infected from spreading. In a steamroll after bringing in heavy duty equipment, forces repels several infected and burn away areas covered in veins and tendrils. As they keep up the momentum, the USSR authorized the usage of napalm in the center of the overwhelmed Chernobyl Power Plant. Soviet Air Forces dropped agents from the smog skies, lighting the place on fire as smoke clouded. Unfortunately, disorientating vision, pulling a few aircraft down. After Hard Winter, infected activity waned down, and veins were only growing at an incredibly slow pace than previous encounters. Soviet clean up crews continued to contain the situation according to protocol. With the laser project ongoing, the USSR has decided to implement their project onto anti-armored vehicles and SAMs. Soviet designs placed a few vehicles in place against Ashens and held potential for foreign threats. - USSR has ordered the relocation of Ukrainian SSR to Donetsk, and Belarusian capital to Vitebsk as the radiation grows intense each month. In factories, gas masks, NBC suits and filters are being churn out by the day, workers dressed in protection produced large quantities in the hundred of thousands range. ... A man trembles, slowly limping as silence has taken over. In the depths of Chernobyl, only Ashens remain on No Man's Land.

What's up with disagreeing Egypt :v:
Soviet Union is powerful and rich country. They don't need help. :v:
And now they owe us one.
The failing Soviet Union needs Western help to contain the spread of Ashens! Not so strong now! Not to worry, the great United States will make a yuuuge foreign aid deal, to be sure Ashens never reaches us or our partners!
Oh my gosh just shut the dang up already you filthy imperialist Thank you for helping them though

When can we expect the postings about the Egyptian-Libyan war? I need to see that before I send in a turn...
Turn has been postponed to a future date. Due dates have been extended. Egyptian-Libyan war post will be coming soon.
[img]http://i.imgur.com/IRVn430.png[/img] Operation Rising Tide At the end of October 1986, The Egyptian Army planned a series of coordinated assaults alongside the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. Their main target; Benghazi. M113s backed up by Pattons and BMPs mobilized. Libyan garrisons are stationed, a checkpoint accounted for.

With the resolution passing UN members are encouraged to support USSR against this environmental threat. In the weeks that followed news of Ashens has spread worldwide, major nations go aware of the threat and how it spreads. - The president of the Philippines puts down a rebellion against their government in Manila - The smog has slowed to a crawl due to the efforts of USSR's military. However, the situation in Ukraine worsens as sickness increases by 29%. Corpses are burned by Cleaner Units and few soldiers who failed to protect themselves from the radiation fall ill. - Ronald Reagan lifts trade boycott against Poland - Margret Thratcher wins third consecutive term - On June 12 the President of the United State Ronald Reagan traveled to West Berlin. - The Crack epidemic has taken a toll among the inner cities, crime raises drastically in Miami as Florida cracks down on crime.
