![]() The Confederation was going through a hectic period. A few months ago, the first Pluralist [1] president candidate was elected in Tzetxuhoani history. A unique moment. The elections were followed by a controversial message of the Ichihuexopan rebels that called for a revolution in Tzetxuhoan. The country, named Tzetxuhoan, was ruled by a colonial elite that presented itself as a moral and caring democracy. The indigenous rights were ignored, immigrants were not offered any chance of a succesful life, and those who screamed for change were ignored by the generally very conservative political establishment. Some even began to refer to Tzetxuhoan as ''Batavia'', as it was ruled by Anglo- and Dutch colonials. The Pluralist party wanted more rights for the poor, the immigrants and indigenous. Now they had a president in office, but that was not enough for such a change. The parliamentary elections had to be won too. Since the Conservative ex-president Attwater [2] was crushed during the presidential elections, the Conservatives were campaigning like never before. If the Pluralists would get the majority in the Confederate Assembly [3], than nothing stood in the way for the Pluralists to give the ''oppressed'' more rights. The election campaigns had begun, and the left had taken up political weapons too. The political left felt this was the time to get equal rights, at least more rights, for the poor, the indigenous and immigrants. Activists, trade unions and the only leftist political party in the Confederate Assembly, the Unionist Party [4], held a meeting in Tlucalpo, a small village in the Ichihuexopan mountains where an indigenous leftist uprising was going on for years now. Tlucalpo ![]() Social activists, trade unionists, landless peasants movements, a Unionist Party delegation, a delegation from the Communist Party of Tzetxuhoan, a feminist delegation, a delegation from the ''United Immigrants for Equal Civil Rights Movement'' and a delegation of the rebels from the ''Indigenous Front of National Liberation'' came together in a field in Tlucalpo. The first speaker was Amaya de Bolívar, spokesperson for the Unionist Party.
Amaya de Bolívar spoke fierce, but she realized that she did not have full support from the other delegations. Her ideas and words were different from what the rebels believed, from what the communists believed, from what the other movements believed. Amaya knew that they saw her as another politician, with her own political agenda. She was not one of them. These people often spoke about ''the Left from below'', in other words, leftists organized by the poor themselves and not through political parties and such. Amaya de Bolívar was to them just another ''leftist from above''. A spokesperson for the Indigenous Front of National Liberation stood up to make a statement.
The leftist meeting carried on, while action was undertaken not far from there. Selva Utilxalapa Ernesto Carrasco marched with his old boots through the rough jungles of the Ichihuexopan mountains. His feet were blistered, so were the feet of his comrades. They were marching for days now, in order to reach villages outside the Rebel territory. To reach those places, they had to go around Tzetxuhoani military bases, that were there to keep the Ichihuexopan rebels where they were. Ernesto Carrasco and his old comrades in arms from the Vertadorian EMR were exiled by the new Vertadorian junta, and decided to use their time to aid this leftist rebellion in Ichihuexopan. The past years, Ernesto and his friends spent time on writing essays, gathering weapons, intelligence gathering, and the finding of basic supplies such as food, medicins and fresh water. The Confederate government tried to cut off the Rebel territory from all supplies, electricity, medical treatment and whatever you can think of. Ernesto came to these mountains as a hard line marxist, he had always been a marxist. It was the marxist inside him that made him lead the Vertadorian revolution. But his doctrine he always believed in, was changing. He was learning from the indigenous rebels in Ichihuexopan, and he learned about their ideas and practices. For now, Ernesto concentrated on spreading the proclamation a revolution from below. It was to mobilize more people who were different, to join the struggle for a world where all who are different can have a common tomorrow of democracy, liberty and justice. A world where all worlds fit. 1. Pluralist Party, Tzetxuhoani political party with neoliberal agenda and that demands more rights for officially the ''poor'', which comes down to immigrants and indigenous. 2. Calvin Attwater, president for the past 15 years. Known for his very conservative policy. 3. Confederate Assembly, lower house in the Confederate legislative body. 4. Unionist Party, socialist party that seeks to transform the confederation into a federation (union), and that demands equal rights for indigenous and immigrants.

Breaking News Rebels come to clash with military ![]() (Military convoy from the Rapid Reaction Force near the Selva Utilxalapa) In the Ichihuexopan rebel region, the north-west of our confederation, rebels came to clash with the established military units. The military reports that shots were fired from the Utilxalapa jungle on a Confederal military camp by armed rebels. Two soldiers were wounded. The gunfight between the Rapid Reaction Force and the rebels carried on for three hours. The military claims five rebels have been killed in the violence. This was the most violent event that occurred in the rebel territories between rebels and the authorities since their initial uprising. A few years ago, a leftist indigenous paramilitary group rose up against the state of Ichihuexopan, against the Confederal government of Tzetxuhoan and against ''those in power''. Since then, the Confederal Army was deployed in the rebel regions to lock the rebellion up in its own territory. The military thinks these shootings were an attempt by the rebels to move out of their own territory to bring their uprising to other parts of Tzetxuhoan. Since the elections, millions of activists, leftists and indigenous have expressed their support for the rebellion - leading to very tense social-political situations throughout the entire country.

Rebel violence escalates![]() (troops from the Rapid Reaction Force using choppers to reinforce other troubled units) Violence in the Ichihuexopan rebel region is escalating, says the Confederal military. A few days ago, armed rebels attacked a military camp near Ichihuexopan, and violence is ongoing. The military increased the amount of patrols done per day, which resulted in attacks by rebels on military patrols and convoys. Six soldiers of the Rapid Reaction Force have been killed during attacks by the rebel armies from Ichihuexopan. The victims are the 21 years old sergeant Mike Kendall, the 19 years old private Willem Dekkers, 20 years old corporal Alan Bouwmeester, the 27 years old sergeant and father of two children, Danny Riley and the 23 years old twin brothers Jan and Niko Zandvoort. At this moment, a heavy battle is going on between rebels and soldiers. A group of armed rebels has encircled a military camp in the jungle, the gunfight is ongoing for two hours now. The rebels use RPG's, grenades, mortars and full automatic assault rifles. The CST air force is preparing military choppers to support the trapped units from the Rapid Reaction Force. President Ackerman has asked the international community for foreign intervention to stop the violence in the Ichihuexopan region. |

The Elebeneese Empire would be willing to spare some of the famous Elvini Marines to help maintain order in Tzetxuhoan, if it is accepted. The unit is underused. Although Eleben is officially pacifist militarily, this is different, and doesn't need to reach public knowledge. General J. Dora |

Elebeneese intervention would be much appreciated by president Ackerman. The rebels see Confederal military as enemies, and won't stop using violence as long as the military is deployed there. Tzetxuhoan needs a ''neutral'' military force to bring order to the region. |

A plane containing twenty or so Elvini Marines are currently en route from the Yamukan Icelands to Tzetxuhoan. The Elebeneese are eager to show the world we are a force of good, and will help those in need, to create peace. As with the Vertadoríans and the Irastanis, any citizen from Tzetxuhoan seeking refuge will be welcome to fly back on the plane to Eleben. |

![]() A tank patrol from the 46th Armored Regiment on its way to Ichihuexopan. ![]() -Zoaltxil region, northwest Tzetxuhoan- The violence since Elebeneese intervention only increased. The indigenous rebel armies have taken up guerilla strategy, and their units are led by the infamous Ernesto Carrasco and his own Vertadorian comrades. The Rapid Reaction Force, an elite marine unit, was responsible for maintaining oder in this part of Tzetxuhoan, but now after several years, it had finally escalated in a full war with the rebel guerillas. Weeks ago, the first shots were fired between rebels and military, and now the Rapid Reaction Force had the support from the air force, artillery and battle tanks. Frequently, their patrols were ambushed by guerillas, ammunition and uniforms were taken, and medical supplies. Now that these regions were declared as high conflict zones, media were told to stay away. 14 Confederal soldiers had been killed, and only two kills on enemy side were confirmed. Despite having one of the most modern militaries in Renatia, the CST armed forces were not effective in fighting the guerillas. The guerillas moved very quick, they fought very daring - the military command seriously believed Ernesto Carrasco was indeed leading the guerillas. After all, there were no other people around the region with experience in guerilla warfare. ![]() -Selva Selva Utilxalapa, Ichihuexopan rainforest (northwest Tzetxuhoan)- Ernesto Carrasco, famous leader of the Vertadorian Revolution and several other revolutionary wars in Eleben, Agomba and now Tzetxuhoan marched with his unit through the dense rainforest of Ichihuexopan. He began to notice he was not the young student anymore, like he was during the Vertadorian revolution. It was twenty years later now. And as promised, Ernesto would spend the rest of his life fighting for justice. During the Vertadorian Revolutionary war, Ernesto was young and rash. His charismatic appearance made his campaign a success. Now he had been transformed into a middle aged man, with only one clear goal: Revolution for all peoples. When Ernesto and his brothers began their revolutionary war, around 23Æ, they believed they could return to the normal student life after the revolution. Instead of that, they stayed together to fight all over Renatia. It was a true miracle they were still alive. Ernesto looked behind him, and he noticed his men were exhausted. They needed to walk another ten kilometers to the next safe point. But the men would probably give him a punch if he wanted them to keep on walking. ''Compañeros, this is a good moment to rest. Drink something, take a look at your blistered feet. We continue the march tomorrow, early in the morning.'' said Ernesto. He sat down on the ground, right in the middle of an anthill. Ernesto scolded, whiped off his pants and sat down on a different spot. He double checked before he sat down: no tarantulas, no anthills, no snakes - a clear spot. Then he took a cigar, and reached for his radio. Ernesto contacted his brother. ''Hola, this is Enrique....who am I talking to, come in, come in. Over.'' said the voice of Ernesto's youngest brother, Enrique. ''Rico, itsa me, Ernesto!'' ''Hola, Nesto Vitor Carrasco de Calleja!'' shouted Enrique. ''Hows the situation over there?'' ''Here? Everything fine in Tlucalpo. That leftist conference we held: worth nothing. Amaya de Bolívar is not a revolutionary, that simply sucks. She and her Unionists are the only leftists with significant influence, but she refuses to join a coalition of revolutionary movements against the state of Tzetxuhoan. Oh...and they bombed us last night - no damage or casualties though.'' ''Okay, thanks. I'm gonna call for Alejandro now. Over and out.'' Alejandro and his unit didn't have any more news. Ernesto hoped that Juan, another comrade from Vertadoria, had some luck in mobilizing rural populations surrounding the Ichihuexopan region. The struggle for democracy, liberty and justice was for all Tzetxuhoanis. |

Students demontrate against the system ![]() Greentown - Confederate States of Tzetxuhoan Thousands of students from the Greentown Autonomous University of Tzetxuhoan (GAUT) [1] have demonstrated in the capital, New Hope City today. The students demanded equal rights for all in Tzetxuhoan, an end of the war against the indigenous rebellion in Ichihuexopan and the resignation of the Pluralist government under president Ackerman. When riot police showed up, the demonstration turned violent. Hundreds of students clashed with police forces. Many cars were burned, local shops were destroyed and stones were ripped out of the road to be thrown at the police. One police officer got seriously injured after he was hit by a molotov cocktail. Demonstrations have also been held in Greentown itself, and in Ashton. In Cape Coloniale, deep conservative territory, a demonstration was held by students from the National Protestant University (NPU) [2]. They demanded the government to knock down ''leftist aggression''. Since the Ichihuexopan rebellion, many important social issues have been raised, causing serious polarization between the ''left'' and the ''right''. An emotional president Ackerman had this to say on the increasing rebel violence in Ichihuexopan and the current political tension in the Confederation: ...I feel ashamed! I feel ashamed for the behavior of a small portion of our population! Leftist radicals have lost themselves, incited by terrorists in Ichihuexopan and Amaya de Bolívar, spokesperson for the leftist Unionist Party. Far right ''conservatives'' who want me to shoot every leftist who makes use of his freedom of speech. Communists, socialists, anarchists, civil rights activits - all forming one bloc like they are about to fight a war or something.... Let me tell you this: I will no longer tolerate this chaos and extremism in my country anymore. This is not democracy....This is not how freedom of speech was meant! This is abusing freedom of speech to express hate, extremism - Radicalism! In several rural parts of Tzetxuhoan, movements have been formed that now officially declare support for the Ichihuexopan rebellion. They call for a further spread of rebellion, and for a national revolution against neoliberalism for humanity. 1. GAUT: Greentown Autonomous University of Tzetxuhoan, large university in Greentown, often ascociated with leftist politics, activism and environmentalism. 2. NPU: National Protestant University, university in Cape Coloniale, bulwark of conservatism in Tzetxuhoan. Edited by Nentsia, 16 Aug 2010, 09:23 AM.

![]() Uprisings continue in the West ZOALTXIL - Violence in the Zoaltxil, Utilxalapa and Ichihuexopan regions is ongoing and escalating. The Rapid Reaction Force has had multiple violent confrontations with guerilla and rebel armies, and is met with hostility by local communities in the regions. Since a few years now, several indigenous and agrarian communities in the west of Tzetxuhoan rose up in arms against the state. This morning, President Ackerman officially declared the state of emergency in the rebel regions. The rebel regions have become a 'no-go' area for press and civilians, and more troops have been deployed in the area to deal with the guerillas. Minister of Defence, Peter-Paul Hendrix, has sent the Special Combat Operations Regiment (SCOR) to the conflict zones. They are specialized in counterinsurgency and trained in jungle warfare. Until now, more than 54 soldiers have died in the conflict with indigenous rebels. |

Students Uprising joins Ichihuexopan Revolt! President Ackerman declares national state of emergency ![]()
A few thousand students occupied several buildings in Greentown and New Hope City. Students, armed with clubs, knifes, molotov cocktails and even automatic assault rifles have occupied bank buildings, a university building and a town hall. Their demands are uncertain, but it is known that they want President Ackerman to end all hostilities against the Ichihuexopan rebels. In Ichihuexopan, thousands of indigenous indians fight for their rights since a few years. Their rebellion is ongoing, and they claim to be harassed and persecuted by the Tzetxuhoani military that is stationed there. The indigenous rebels have formed a leftist bloc with other non-parliamentary organizations, such as many radical student organizations, civil rights movements, trade unions and an increasing number of other indigenous rebel movements. In the Tzekuitopan, Exhupan and even in Quetzexapan regions, several thousands of indigenous indians have officially delcared their war on the governments and capitalism. They claim to have joined the leftist struggle of Ichihuexopan from below. President Ackerman is currently consulting the national security council. It is expected that he will ask for foreign intervention to stop the rebellions all over Tzetxuhoan. ![]() Ichihuexopan rebel near the Utilxalapa rainforest
