After years of research, dedication, and 2 sacrificed virgins, the International Space Station has been launched into low orbit about the DSA. The Station is open to all DSA nations for the further exploration of space, research, and advancement of the DSA.
Reports are coming in from ISS scientists who have made a recent discovery involving our natural satellite, the moon. Hiding behind our moon is a second moon, one made of, of all things, cheese. Scientists are baffled at how and when this second moon appeared, reporting that this is unprecedented. ISS scientists have already send a small probe to investigate further this large Cheesemoon.
The ISS probe has finally reached the Cheesemoon and has discovered a very peculiar sight: the flag of [nation]Cheeseworld [/nation]on it. What this would seem to imply is that [nation]Cheeseworld [/nation]has reached the Cheesemoon. Reporters have been flocking to [nation]Cheeseworld[/nation], questioning why the nation has kept the moon secret.
From the Nation of Cheeseworld
At the press conference of the Director of the Cheeseworld Volunteer Space Agency (CVSA), Dr. Rhett Robert Beezums, II:
Cheeseworld constructed the Cheesemoon™️ out of cheese and in secrecy to be a territory of Cheeseworld, and the Cheesemoon™️ is fully under the control of the CVSA. It has a small atmosphere created to match the atmosphere of our planet and is conducive to long term and sustainable survival. So far, 17 different bases have been constructed on the surface, with an undisclosed number beneath the surface. These bases are funded by and operated under the oversight of various Cheeseworldian corporations, and follow standards set forth by the CVSA. No taxes have been implemented to support these endeavours. As a reminder, the CVSA is a purely volunteer operation that receives no state funding, like all agencies in Cheeseworld. I will now take any questions from the press.
From the Nation of Napoilia
Today, the federal parliament of Napoilia has announced that it will be sending a space shuttle containing five scientists to the ISS to study space. They are due to leave on the 19th of August and will return on the 1st of September. The Napili government hopes to further its knowledge of the workings of space and hopes this will be the first stepping-stone for the long-term plan to construct a long-range shuttle. We wish the cosmonauts a happy journey and hope they and their families are well. Further details will be announced at a later date.
A Debtian researcher, wearing his signature sable fedora, breaks through the crowd. "That moon shouldn't belong to you. It's in the DSA's atmosphere and thus is communally shared. In fact, I doubt that cheese is even from your nation, but a gift from Violet himself!. It belongs in a museum!".
As result of this researcher's words, shuttles have already begun to be built to extract the Cheesemoon™ to place it all in a museum.
From the Nation of Cheeseworld
Dr. Beezums II slams his fist on the podium and shouts.
"How dare you accuse the cheese is not ours! Cheeseworld spent 10 years milking a total of 804 quadrillion cows to make the Monterey Jack to create Cheesemoon™️ and that effort cannot and will not be suppressed by your disbelief in the abilities of Cheeseworld. The CVSA has joined forces with the CVAF to throw everything we have at any who dare to approach Cheesemoon™️ with malicious intent."
OOC: I actually did the math and you would need that many cows to produce all the cheese needed in 10 years. I spent a while figuring all that out but it was totally worth it

Good Morning, Comrades, I'm Chris Hansen. Our top story this morning; the religious community is up in arms against Cheeseworld after Dr. Beezums II dismissed the long held and ancient belief that the Cheesemoon™ that was just discovered last week was in fact created by the god, Violet. With Violetists who believe in a world created by Violet, or Cheeseationists, feeling their religious beliefs are being dismissed, many have begun sailing and flying to Cheeseworld to protest the leaders of the country and/or the Cheesemoon™ project. Others have taken to the streets in cities around the world to protest and express their dissatisfaction. We're live with our field reporter, Gary Johnson, in Phoenix, IR, where one protest is occurring.
"Thanks, Chris. Today's weather is grate for a protest. I'm standing here outside the Stilton Hotel, a Cheeseworldian company, where protesters are expressing their anger at Cheeseworld, and you cantal just how angry they are by the look on their faces. Now, for brie, I've been needing to tread caerphilly around here in order not . Protesters are comparing Cheeseworld to their fable of Edam and Eve where a muenster tried to steal Violet's cheese jar. By the looks of this protest, things don't seem like they're gonna get cheddar. This is Gary Johnson, DSA News."
...Gary...Jesus, you're so cringy. Like, what's wrong with you?
From the Nation of Syvis
Sturemberg Gazette:"Protest against the Violetists have broke out in Syvis.Losare Roveski has decided to call his two allies for a meeting in Stanixtelle,Syvis and try to help them work out their problems.Losare Roveski clames he is doing this so hatred doesn't trigger violence between the two nations,like it did i the Syvian Civil War."

We have received conformation that the Space Shuttle Violet's Grate is nearing the Cheesemoon™. The astronauts on the shuttle are prepared to retrieve the cheese in order to place it all into a museum. Currently, Cheeseworld has not responded to the backlash from the religious community, but we will keep you updated as events unfold.
From the Nation of Cheeseworld
Cheeseworld stands by its assertion that it built the Cheesemoon™. Facts will always prevail in the face of scrutiny. The CVSA and CVAF are prepared to fight back with the required force to protect Cheesemoon™. Additionally, citizens living on Cheesemoon™ are ready to take up arms to defend it. Despite Cheeseworld not having any formal or government lead army, it's citizens are the most armed in the DSA, and given they are also the rudest and least compassionate, they have no issue using those weapons to protect what is theirs. The Cheesemoon™ is theirs. Cheeseworld is theirs. They're armed to the singular tooth and singular nail and are happy to risk their short lives to do what is right. Honestly, most of our capable citizens will be dying within 10 years anyways, so it's not like they're going to be missing out on a long future. That's one of the benefits of having a population with an average lifespan of 29 years.

Tragic news coming out of space today as the SS Violet's Grate was hit by a stray cheese asteroid. While the impact itself did nothing, one person on the shuttle was overwhelmed by it, seeing it as a sign from Violet. They tore a hole into the shuttle using cheese mining equipment, killing all on board.
There was a large amount of RP that was done on the Regional Discord, so it is hard to summarize. To try and do so,
From the Nation of Dekks
"The government of Dekks has declared the opening of the Public Property Pact, it is our goal and duty to protect the principle that outer space does not belong to any person or to any one nation, we will protect the right of every citizen that calls our region home to get equal amounts of use out of every new discovery we may find out beyond, do not listen to cheeseworld, our goal is not war, we try to achieve this great principle by diplomacy, economic sanctions and whatever else may be needed, but even thoug it's a possibility for us it's the very last one."
From the Nation of Alpyrea
In a bizarre turn of events, the Alpyrean Federal Council has declared its support of the anti-war alliance created by Xingal and West Bengalis after a short lived independent “non-aligned” coalition attempt. Lasting only five minutes, the coalition was meant to serve as an armed neutral faction, but increasingly frightening exchanges of nuclear and other WMD threats forced the Council’s hand within minutes of its decision. As of now, various municipal paramilitary forces are being activated to maintain order and deter potential attack. Further discussions of developments will be held in an emergency weekend session of the Council.
The nation of Student Loan Debt does not condone the possibility of war. We are neighbors to both of the two countries of Wileyshire and Cheeseworld, as well as bordering Dekks. To allow a war to occur is to bring it directly to our doorstep. We will attempt to bring this conflict to an end. However, if war is to break out, we will enact sanctions against the combatants.
From the Nation of Herrebrugh
The Kingdom of the Herrebrugh Islands supports Cheeseworld in its valiant defense against Wileyshire threats. An example needs to be made for all rogue nations of the Earth; a line must be drawn, and it must run along the Cheeseworld-Whileyshire border.
We promise financial aid and arms shipments to the Cheeseworld government.

There was a large amount of RP that was done on the Regional Discord, so it is hard to summarize. To try and do so,
- Wileyshire wants to blow up Cheesemoon™ and make it rain down cheese and claims that it is public domain since it is a celestial object orbiting the planet. He also wanta to mine the moon for the food and provide it to starving nations.
- Cheeseworld claims that it is private property and belongs to Cheeseworld since they built it.
- Dekks wants to use his nukes in Wiley's plan and also believes the Cheesemoon™ should be public property.
- Brys No Spell, Syvis (militarily), and The Exceptionally Bad support Cheeseworld.
- Alpyrea seeks to establish a non-aligned coalition, not supporting any side nor being anti-war, but supporting their own interest and armed neutrality.
- Alpyrea (originally non-aligned), West Bengalis and Xingal do not support the conflict, wish for peace, and will open their borders to refugees.
- Student Loan Debt seeks peace as result of how close they are to the conflicting nations, but has their military prepared in case of an attack.
