A Triumph for Native Sovereignty: Venice Refounded

The Norfolk n' Chance Standard is thrilled to report that in a collaboration of the Founderless Regions Alliance, E-Army and regional natives, the region of Venice has been successfully refounded. Venice had become an invasion hotspot in recent months, leaving the region decimated and ever-vulnerable to new attacks.

Following a prelonged occupation by Europeia, allegedly planning to colonize the region, Venice was liberated in a series of swift strikes involving up to 40 defender troops pitted against 30 invaders pouring into the region from formidable invader and imperialist powers such as Europeia, Hampshire, The New Inquisition and Great Britain and Ireland. The newly elected delegate, Tycholand of the E-Army, banjected the invading forces and secured the region with a password.

Meanwhile Numero Capitan of the FRA was in talks with regional natives to plan and execute a refounding, securing the region against invasion for the indefinate future. Tycholand ejected a large portion of his endorsees whilst control of a native nation, The Speechless, was transferred to both Numero Capitan and Pope Lexus X [of the Regional Development Office at the FRA]. The delegacy was then easily transferred to The Speechless as natives and defenders moved out of the locked-down region. In a last-ditch attempt to compromise native and defender efforts, a supposed invader puppet contacted The Speechless requesting the regional password. Invaders were thrown when they realised they had been supplied a fake password by Numero Capitan in control of the native nation.

Update times were meticulously plotted and in an outstandingly executed move Numero Capitan was able to refound the region less than 20 seconds after it had died. Events that followed revealed that had defender and natives not co-ordinated update times so thoroughly, opposing invader refounders who were eagerly watching may have been able to refound the region themselves, forever denying regional natives their rightful home.

We salute the nations involved in this daring and efficient operation and offer the now free and secure region of Venice our sincere congratulations. We wish them the best of luck for the future.
