2018
North Korea launches two missile rests over Japan, sparking expected, but fierce international outcry with many calling for an end or solution to the madness that North Korea is doing.

'''Ukraine demands Russia recognize Ukrainian sovereignty over the Crimea Peninsula. Russia doesn't give a shit, but does not react aggressively lest the European states suspect more.'''

'''ISIS has been mostly cleared up in the Middle East, with splinter groups coming up every now and then. With this obstacle gone, Syria falls into their civil war again, with factions calling on powerful allies.'''

United States of America (bad turn)

 * Backstory
 * 2018: Donald Trump is facing an impeachment crisis in early 2018 following further investigations from the FBI regarding of the 2016 presidential elections and further condemnation of Trump tweeting alt right tweets out of nowhere in a form of two tweets, which dimished his own approval and international condemnation, however Sean Hannity claimed the disapproval was made by left-wingers, Democrats and "libertards" and led to him being fired on May 2018 as his own rhetorical fights and advertisers pulling off from his show went too far for Fox to handle, thus a search for a more centre-right wing commentator was being made. During the 2018 midterm elections, the Democrats took foothold of the Senate but the House of Representatives remained mainly as Republican in overall, while Trump which he's now under the Weinstein effect once again after more allegations of him harassing being released into the public on June 2018 which were mainly unheard off, further pushing into a possibility of removal. Then on 7th September, it was found out that a bomb was put in by a left-wing to attempt the killing of Donald Trump and that was too far for him and yet he still survived in the remainder of the year 2018 commanding military drills with South Korea against North Korea and now by the end of the year, Donald Trump is considering to reveal plans to declare war on North Korea and arming nuclear weapons to aim at the city of Pyongyang if they continue "to test nuclear missiles".
 * Government/External Politics
 * Still Narrowly Survived: While Donald Trump's term doesn't end until January 2021, he planned to wage war with North Korea before Election Day and plan for the White House to directly ignore the Senate, blocking any proposals from the Democrat-majority Senate and votes, rigging it to make it in favour of Trump - which could allow him to wage directly war on North Korea even if warnings are in his own way, but many condemn it as unconstitutional. The impeachment process however was still ongoing but there was no vote to get him out of here, while investigations of the 2016 presidential elections were still ongoing.
 * Israel: Due to alienation of relationships with most Muslim countries by now, the United States' government under Trump began indirectly funding Israel on their own settlements after recognising Jerusalem as the capital of Israel on December 2017 and push Palestinians even further out of the region of what was formerly part of the Palestinian Mandate before the UN Partition Plan.
 * Syria: The United States gradually withdrew troops from Syria to focus on the Middle East "over something else", particularly Israel.
 * Military: Military funding has heavily increased during Trump's administration and the 2018 budget would see that as well. (I would've done a basic list of personnel but I was kind of lazy so)
 * Economy: Corporal tax cuts had led to corporations growing, but looming debt and other overlooked economic events are about to put the weight of the US economy soon and by the early 2020s, the economy of the United States would likely see the stock market crashing again since 2007-08. Unemployment is also at its lowest at the end of 2019.
 * Diplomacy:
 * North Korea: "Rocket Man must stop doing nuclear tests or we'll annilate you in few weeks!" said President Trump.
 * Japan: The United States seemingly praised the end of a peaceful constitution of Japan after 70 years because of tensions with North Korea had escalated in the late 2010s.

Vietnam
Demographics: 97 million people (85.7% Vietnamese along with 53 minorities)
 * Politics: S O C I A L I S M
 * Economy: In order to make our economy better, we start funding more into less developed, rural areas and build more infrastructure.
 * Military:
 * Numbers:
 * Land force: 500k active, approx 3.2m reserve.
 * Navy: 50k sailors & officers, 91 ships
 * Air Force: 36k personnel, 285 aircrafts
 * Technology: anything idk
 * Diplo:
 * India: We are looking for a peaceful diplomatic situation with the Myanmar crisis so please cease your warmongering actions. Also, you don't want to be seen as a force from hell in the public eye, no?
 * Myanmar: Again, cease the discrimination activities.
 * US, Japan & South Korea: We would like to enter a technology co-operations pact between us three countries.
 * Rohingya Crisis:
 * We send reporters and photographers to get more solid proof about the situation.

Republic of Korea (former) | Korean State (present)

 * Government:
 * Politics:
 * Assassination of President Moon Jae-in: On March 27th, 2019, the president of the Republic of Korea, His Excellency Moon Jae-in was assassinated. In an emergency statement, the Prime Minister, now President, Lee Nak-yeon has declared that emergency elections will be held on the fifth of July.
 * Emergency Elections: The day has come, the fifth of July, 2019. After months of campaigning it seems clear about who the winner will be: Choo Mi-ae of the Democratic Party of Korea. But, it seems that a certain "patriotic party" of Korea has different plans.
 * Transition into a Nationalist State: On the seventeeth of July, only a week after Her Excellency Choo Mi-ae's inauguration, the National Assembly Proceeding Hall is stormed by hundreds of members of the alt-right party, the Korean Patriotic Party. All armed with guns ranging from small handguns to Daewoo K14s, K2s, etc. Being held at gunpoint, without immediate contact with the military due to the "rioters" jamming all cellular and radio devices, they surrender to the KPP. All current members of the National Assembly are replaced with KPP party members, and the presidency is transition from Choo Mi-ae to Kangjon Seung-Hee, the KPP's leader. The title of president is also changed from "President" to "Taewonsu", meaning Grand Marshal [of the State].


 * Laws and Policies:
 * Narcotics: Drugs that are not too damaging to a person or the people, animals, etc. around them are legalized for both medical and person use. This includes mushrooms, ayahuasca, marijuana, and LSD. However, tobacco is completely banned due to its high risk and rate of lung cancer, both to the user and those around them. Another regulation is that those who have visited a bar are not allowed to leave without having a breathalyzer test performed on them.
 * Abortion: Abortion is made strictly. If they do not want their child or do not have the ability to care for the child, they will put it up for adoption. To compensate for this, state-funded adoption agencies are created and funded.
 * Unemployment: In order to compensate for unemployment, many of the unemployed, whether male or female, are forced into working in the military, whether it be active duty or medical, etc.


 * Analytics:
 * Economy: Many new policies are made in economics to improve it. The first policy is to increase interest rates through the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve's rate is the rate at which banks borrow money from the government, but, in order to make money, they must lend it at higher rates. So, when the Federal Reserve increases its interest rate, banks have no choice but to increase their rates as well. When banks increase their rates, less people want to borrow money because it costs more to do so if that money accrues interest. So, spending drops, prices drop and inflation slows. The second method is to increase reserve requirements on the amount of money banks are legally required to keep on hand to cover withdraws. The more money banks are required to hold back, the less they have to lend to consumers. If they have less to lend, consumers will borrow less, which will decrease spending. The third method is to directly or indirectly reduce the money supply by enacting policies that encourage reduction of the money supply. Two examples of this include calling in debts that are owed to the government and increasing the interest paid on bonds so that more investors will buy them. The latter policy raises the exchange rate of the currency due to higher demand and, in turn, increases imports and decreases exports. Both of these policies will reduce the amount of money in circulation because the money will be going from banks, companies and investors pockets and into the government’s pocket where they can control what happens to it.

2020
''' Russia declares they will sell the Murmansk Oblast for 10 million USD. '''

''' Journalists report of the Rohingya being taken to apparent shelter camps, but escapists report otherwise, with forced labor and violence being part of the many horrors they experience within these camps. '''

''' Myanmar further denies the conditions of the Rohingya in these camps, saying they are legitimate welfare camps. '''

''' The Arab states express their discontent with the recent decisions of the United States in what may be an act to suspect them of threatening Israel, as well as the new conditions of the Syrian Civil War. '''

''' North Korea launches another missile test, this time directly over South Korea. It tells South Korea that their nuclear arsenal is far better than they could ever come up with. '''

''' Ukraine and the Donetsk People's Republic officially are at war. Russia continues to supply its puppet state with weapons and supplies, ignoring whatever Ukraine says. '''

''' Japan builds up an impressive navy and land force in a matter of months, comprised of mostly American units. '''

''' The Syrian government makes larger gains in their civil war, fueled by the American withdrawal. '''

Kingdom of Noregea (Norway)

 * Economy: The economy grows more after joining the EU, at about 3.03%.
 * Military:
 * Active Personnel:  29,104
 * Reserve Personnel: 50,047
 * Wars and Conflicts: None
 * Events: None
 * Diplomacy:
 * Russia: OK, we will buy it for 10.3 million.
 * Germany: We should help Ukraine with the war going on, they are a member of the EU. I'm giving you 1000$ and 400 troops for the war, incase Donetsk gets close to the capital.
 * Ukraine: I suggest moving your capital to Lviv, closer to EU and NATO forces.

United States of America

 * Government
 * North Korea: The United States of America begins planning an invasion on North Korea by themselves, although Trump wasn't confident it'll be done well so they continue to do rhetorical threats and began preparing their missiles to aim at North Korea, along with the preparation of any missile attacks (particularly intercontinental missiles) on Hawaii, Alaska and the West Coast due to heightened threat.
 * Israel: With Trump re-elected, the US heavy support for Israel is unlikely to stop despite global warnings.
 * Election Day: The 2020 presidential elections was much divided, many people want Trump out of office but there are some Republican supporters who are willing to vote for the Democrats instead because they see Trump as "illegitimate", particularly those in the urban areas. Elizabeth Warren, a senator from Massachusetts became the Democratic presidential candidate sometime in March and was defeated in that election, with President Trump re-elected just narrowly with 271 electoral college votes. However Trump became even more radicalised on 2020, promising "a war against North Korea, aided by allies" during his second term.Idkwhatamidoing.png
 * Radical Trump: The United States is out of the Paris Agreement signed in 2015, which was meant to target a lower goal of greenhouse emissions by 2020. Trump is also considering to block any attempts made by the FBI onto the 2020 presidential elections, if they were rigged by Russia or not because he had miraculously secured 271 votes when Warren should've gotten enough voters to secure her place. (America is basically an oligarchy with the electoral college .-.)
 * Military: Budget remains relatively the same under the Trump administration while there were calls for many to slash the military budget by 40% to be done to other means such as welfare but they were ignored due to the threat of North Korea that Trump had hyped along.
 * Economy: Still growing but there's a risk that the economic bubble of the United States will burst by the 2024 presidential elections or the 2022 midterms at its earliest.
 * Technology:
 * Railgun (US Navy): Researched.
 * Space: Trump launches a plan to get a man on the Moon before 2025 and yet the budget of NASA is barely $25 billion for the 2020 budget which isn't enough for them to launch a man on the Moon once again since 1972 while SpaceX isn't really affiliated with the government (and is owned by a very rich person) and the US government doesn't intend to force on them anyway. So NASA had to force themselves to drop their own climate observation, which the Republican Party would intend to cut down climate research on NASA as they are one of the strongest deniers since Trump was inaugurated in office to look forward to space.
 * Diplomacy: Trump's rhetorical moves got even worse.
 * South Korea: Because they have went away with nationalism, we decided that the United States will handle North Korea on OUR own situation. Unless you want us to be in the game, then we will handle our own instead.
 * Japan: We ask if we can conduct military drills against North Korea (in the sea of course) and potentially help us on the run to overthrow the government of North Korea and replace them with another government.
