The Arab Republic of Egypt has officially recognized Palestine. And we are officially guaranteeing Palestine Independence. And If Israel makes any moves against Palestine, Egypt will immediately intervene on behalf of Palestine.

With the recent birth of a new Palestinian state, and the threat Israel poses on Palestine. Egypt will be putting its forces on Israel's Border. This way if Israel attacks palestine or retaliates against Palestinians for their homeland making a new state. Egypt can and will intervene on behalf of Palestine.

The RIK in hearing the Palestinian Republic was over thrown was not the happiest but has decided to send Diplomats to the new Islamic Republic. The RIK Senate is still deciding if they should recognize the New Islamic Republic though.

Hail Iraq

Hail Kurdistan

With Khaled Mashal as the Supreme Leader of Palestine, a massive purge has kicked off in the small nation. What remained of the old political opponents of Hamas have either been killed, deported, or arrested. Initially, protests continued over this and - for about a week - the Palestinian people were in the streets as the military guarded the sidewalks, not taking action against the mostly peaceful protesters.

Infuriated by the peaceful demonstrations in the West Bank, Khaled Mashal ordered the Palestinian Liberation Army to fire on the peaceful protesters. It was a gamble, as the Palestinian Liberation Army might have turned their weapons on the government, but the Pro-Hamas Army did as Khaled Mashal asked. Not only did they fire on protesters, but they arrested their leadership and instilled order in the nation - order that has long been unfamiliar to the people for generations. Chaos no longer reigns in Palestine, but rather, order and love for the Supreme Leader.

Jewish settlements dot the western areas of the West Bank. These settlements have been the basis of Palestinian-Israeli tensions after the Six Day War. Due to having absolute power in this new Islamist country, Khaled Mashal criminalized private property rights to Jews, as well as Jewish Settlements. To enforce these laws, he used the military to force Jews out of their homes.

//Rolls:
Palestinian Purge - 75/100
Initial Military Crackdown (without violence): 40/100
Military Crackdown (with violence): 91/100 (with +10 bonus, 101/100)
Use of Military to Deport Jews: 61/100 (with +5 bonus due to military use with crackdown, 66/100)

Having over 50% support in Palestine, Hamas supporters and sympathizers in the Palestinian Army seized key locations in East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip, arresting current leaders in government. The Islamic Republic of Palestine has been proclaimed and Sharia Law will govern the land.

Despite this, Palestine has become a somewhat confused place, at least in the West Bank. The coup was expected to happen, however the speed that it was carried out left the population confused. Fatah is dead, as is all opposition to Hamas, but chaos rules the streets of East Jerusalem as the new government attempts to crackdown on protesters.

Due to being in chaos, the border between Israel and Palestine has become more chaotic, with conflicts between Israeli and Palestinian militias becoming common.

The Republic of Italy is under-going economic woes common in these times for Europe. With Germany falling under the purview of extremists, and an uncertain future for the EU with the leaving of a significant member, such as Bulgaria, the President has deemed it time for Italy to prepare to support itself once more. This 'Four Year Plan' of the President calls for a complete revitalization of infrastructure, industry, and the economy as an entity.

Roadways and bridges haven't gained the proper attention in Italy since the 80's, and this puts the nation in a delicate situation. Should these vital functions collapse, Italian society would follow in time.

Aggressive public works projects to repair infrastructure is the first step to the project, and are beginning immediately.

The measure, though controversial, has gained support amongst the major factions in Parliament who elected the President in the first place, and there has been growing buzz on social media about the influx of jobs. Though the President has warned they are only temporary, it is hoped that so many citizens working once more, will begin a domino effect. The project will take time, money, and the sweat and blood of the Italian people, but the President has pledged to see it through to the end.

500,000 points put into the first phase of the project. Will ask for results at end of year.
