Arab Spring results

Libya - after a long and bloody civil war, Moammar Gaddafi is killed in a NATO air strike in late 2011. Despite this, hard liners and loyalists to the old regime continued to fight until - after a United Nations mission to deploy peacekeepers in mid 2012 ended with diplomatic channels opened between the Transnational Council and the People's Government. After cross-DMZ skirmishes and a brief offensive by loyalists in winter of 2012 that collapsed, loyalist forces agree to a permanent ceasefire with the Council. Despite this, Council forces exploit the collapsed offensive and capture Tripoli, having held much of the rest of the country since mid 2011.

Today, Libya is still rebuilding. Though their democratic system is speckled with periods of election violence and unrest, it is better than under Gaddafi and despite concerns from analysts, the country has remained a sectarian republic. They are supported in their democracy by the old Royal Family.

Egypt - Since the overthrow of Hosni Mubarak, Egypt has remained under a military provisional government. Promises of economic productivity and democracy went unanswered as a growing fundamentalist insurgency grew in the south and rural areas of the nation. For the last three years, the Egyptian Army has fought to keep the country sectarian but it is uncertain if they can stand against the fundamentalists, lead by Aman Al-Zawahiri after his split from Al-Qaeda in 2013.

Tunisia - Tunisia has prospered since the Arab Spring, becoming economically and socially vibrant.

Yemen - Yemen has become a democracy since the Arab Spring, though unfortunately they are still plagued by a fundamentalist insurgency in the north, and by tribal divisions.

Syria
- Syria has remained under the leadership of Assad, despite widespread protests and violations of even basic human rights, the international community was too committed in Libya to further divide their efforts to bring democracy. Syria has not forgotten this, and her government is still angry that western powers sought to use soft power to influence their nation towards democracy.

Lebanon - a late comer to the Arab Spring, Lebanon fell victim to sectarian democratic protests that called for the end of militants striking at Israel being given free reign and, after the army joined their cause, a flourishing and economically vibrant sectarian democratic state has arisen. Today, some in the government are even contemplating an alliance with Israel.

Other Nations
- Most other Arab nations offered some concessions to pacify protesters and these efforts were largely successful. Some fundamentalist insurgencies operate over national boundaries however, having arisen from the Spring - specifically in Saudi Arabia where an anti-monarchist pro-Islamic republic insurgency has arisen in the South and operates in Saudi Arabia and Yemen frequently.

County's such as S. Africa, India, Canada and Norway have agreed to extensive trade deals further boosting the Brazilian economy. Major shipments will start at the beginning of 2017.

Posted Image

The new trade deal will increase annual income by 102 Billion US dollars annually.

With the drug war heating up in Brazil all ports and areas of entry are under heavy security.

Posted Image

El Conzo Roco, an Identified leader of a very large drug organization has been identified and Brazilian intelligence is working on his location. Most of Complexo do Alemão has been shut off as this is what is to be believed as the headquarters of 3 major gangs. Civilians are ordered to stay in their houses at this time until notified later.

*several more bombings occur in Western Ukraine. Anti-Russian Ukrainian militias and insurgents begin to target Pro-Russian Ukrainian government buildings and people. Russia and Ukraine enter talks to try to ease the violence. At a meeting between Putin and the Ukrainian PM, the Ukrainian PM is assasinated.*

Posted Image

*The Ukrainian vice-PM requests that Russian military formations assist the now-split Ukrainian military in putting down the insurgents. Putin returns to Russia and orders the 20th Guards Army to move into Ukraine.*

Invasions, Take Overs, Unions, Annexations are now Available and Open for use.

* Slowly but surely, the population of the United States is pacified as agitators across the nation are black bagged and detained. Following a trial where they are regularly charged with treason and conspiring against the government, agitators of American nationality are often sentenced from 5 to 25 to life long prison terms. Agitators of foreign nationalities are deported to their country of original. *

* Following the nationalizing of Oil Companies, oil production resumes in the USA and few problems are encountered with the same employees operating the same platforms they had always done. Benefits and pay are increased to pacify resistance, and to attract further employees. *

* As the oil business begins to boom, and with the national oil supply lowering prices in the USA - the price of gas is unfrozen and begins to rise slowly, before going down to around $ .98 per gallon and holding. *

* Due to the price of gas, approval ratings for the government receive a slight uptick - even as the US government announces that it will pursue drilling investment and opportunities with renewed safety standards and improved drilling and refining techniques on existing sites *

Posted Image

* Work begins to make the United States more energy self sufficient, and to create more Green Power. By the end of his administration, President Petraeus has stated that he wants 20% of the power consumed by the USA to be green energy, and that 25% of the oil and natural gas produced by the USA should be produced in the United States. *

* Meanwhile, civil and political freedoms are slowly returned to levels before the crisis and President Petraeus is expected to announce Congressional Elections to be held within the year. *

* In an effort to continue to provide for America's energy means, a defence-economic pact is put forward by Petraeus to Prime Minister Bell of Canada. *

* The pact would increase defence cooperation and bring economic boosts to both nations, while Canada would adopt a renamed US dollar for its currency under the name of the North American Credit *

* The pact would also include a clause whereby the Canadian government, after it has adopted the North American Credit, will outsource jobs to American companies and workers to construct a series of super highways, high speed rail lines and subway systems across Canada *

* In return, the United States will buy the Canadian Debt (prior to the purchase of American Debt by the People's Republic of China) and will then sell it back to Canada at an undisclosed 'friendly' rate. *

Posted Image

* President Petraeus seeks an agreement with President Hu Jintao to fund a new program of Flood Levees in the south to prevent a repeat of the Katrina Disaster, a new program to update multiple and build a trio of new hydro damn stations to fuel America's green energy needs, a new initiative to construct wind mills and solar energy collection stations (improved solar power fields) in the Mojave Desert, an update and expansion to the existing high way system within the United States, an update to the rail system of the United States, and the construction of a new line of high speed trains along the East Coast before it fractures into heading south and west to eventually cover most of the United States. *

* President Petraeus is supportive of the Russian intervention into the Ukraine, calling it a positive development for the region and a sign of Russian goodwill to members of the Commonwealth of Independent States *

Posted Image

* Meanwhile, talks with the Canadian government are going well as democratic life returns to the United States, and as the proposed pact - known to Canadian Parliament as Bill 198 is opened for debate *

* The Opposition party stirs up a great deal of political controversy over the legislation, calling it the first step on Petraeus idea of a renewed Manifest Destiny for the United States *

* This stir up of controversy also creates some controversy in the United States where some are cautious about ending American sovereignty to unite with Canada. This controversy is greatly lessened by the absence of most major anti-government individuals and organizations however and soon blows over, after constant reassurance from the government that it is a good thing for the United States and Canada to join. *

With Argentina expressing interest in the new South American Coalition the Argentinian leader would like to tackle poverty together.

It is to be believed that the drug trade leaders from Brazil are fleeing into nearby Columbia.

Posted Image

Rio and the surrounding area are believed to now be mostly drug free. It is to be belived that when the major drug leaders fled the workers either fled with them or went into hiding. A new branch of Police called NDPA, The National Drug Protection Agency is created.

Foreign Policy


*Hu Jintao and the National Congress approves of a new East Asian cooperation union: The Hanoi Pact*

*The Hanoi Pact exists in 3 stages*

Stage 1: Defensive Alliance. Several articles in the charter of the Hanoi Pact dictates that countries that have signed the Hanoi Pact must in any way possible defend fellow membership nations. They admit that questions on sovereignity must be not only decided in their own legal body, but also by a majority of the member states. This is to avoid unstabilizing situations in the region. Cooperation must exist on a military and law enforcement level, unity must be shown on matters of foreign policy

Stage 2: Economic Union. A central bank will be set up to control the rent and other economical matters for all stage 2 member nations. Open borders to stage 2 or 3 member nations is also advised. The free flow on wares and a multinational supervision on labour and materials will hopefully help to keep the economic boom in east asia going. Shared economy is sought.

Stage 3: Civil Union. Member nations now have a shared economy and will now focus on integrating their armed forces into a common defence force. Once enough nations have advanced to stage 3, a new constitution will be written to create this new nation. This new state will have one foreign policy, one market, one defence force and one unified people.

*The Hanoi Pact is signed by the state leaders from:

People's Republic of China -Stage 3-

Socialist Republic of Vietnam -Stage 3-

People's Democratic Republic of Laos -Stage 1-

Republic of Singapore -Stage 1-

Republic of Indonesia -Stage 1-


*A member nation can remain in a stage indefinetly. Progress and the creation of this new state is however the main goal of the Hanoi Pact*

*Hu Jintao finds the public projects put forward by the United States good enough for chinese investment*

*A large, undisclosed, amount is invested into each project*

Domestic Policy

*With the new relations with Vietnam, naval planners can now complete their plan to make the Gulf of Tonkin a bastion for the chinese navy. Building plans and organizational changes are sent to the President and the Chiefs of Staff*

*The Chinese navy continues it's expansion. The Varyag is renamed the Unity and is assigned to patrol duties in the south china sea*

*With the realisation that Aircraft Carriers will soon be a important part of the People's Liberation Army Navy, the National Congress orders that a naval version of the J-20 also be built, the J-20N*

*The J-20 is expected to enter into the Chinese Air Force during the coming year*

*The Army, not wanting to be overlooked, asks for increased funding to improve their armoured and mechanical abilities*

*The Chief of the Army begins to plan a total reorganization of the The Peoples Liberation Army Ground Force*

*One child policy is altered. Parents with a stable economy is allowed to have one more child*

*Public projects begin to improve the idea that gender is equal, it is met with suspicion in the rural areas*

*Hu Jintao orders the National Congress to create a commission that will look into the possibility of green energy in a continually growing industrial China*

*With the continuing decline of the american economy, the nominal Chinese GDP overtakes the american one. The chinese PPP had already overtaken the US in 2012, but now China can finally call itself the largest and most powerful economy in existance*
