>>5327514>Loyal:>Army 98>Loggers 97>Airforce 95A couple reports catch your eye - the first is of a successful joint training exercise between the Army and Airforce. It was one of their best in years, and foreign observers even applaud their cooperation. You can always count on them to do their jobs right, it seems.
The second is of an unveiling of a wooden statue of you in a logger camp outside the town of Samoros - apparently the loggers are really thankful for their prospering industry. Well, they had their reasons, namely that time you managed to subsidize chainsaws for every lumberjack in Paneira and earning your moniker, which you fancy a lot. That's right, your logging exports to Bordec is that profitable to be able to afford those chainsaws.
>Troublemakers:>Gangs 100>Eco Cult 88>Baitros Indigenos 76The good mood from reading those reports get soured quick when you read the next two reports.
One is of a massive gang war that blossomed almost overnight in your capital, Materia City, between two rival gangs: the foreign-based Kaminari gang and the local but more brutal Panteras Sudacas (PS) gang. Gunfights ring out day and night, drivebys and car bombs, people afraid of going outdoors in some of the worst affected districts. And it's only the second day! Ugh, no-good criminals causing chaos and calamity. The economy might even take a hit if this goes on or spreads further than the capital.
The other report is more annoying but just as worrisome: the Eco Cult organized another massive anti-logging protest near the Baitros rainforest's edge, at the town of Samoros. Apparently it was then joined by the Baitros Indigenos, also wanting the preservation of their homes. Problem is, the loggers' camp is only a short distance away from Samoros, and you fear the industry might suffer in the long run. Not to mention the last time the Eco Cult protested, a mysterious explosion occurred in a nearby lumber camp. Your spies and investigators failed to find a connection between the incident and the protests. Ugh, hippies, do they not realize that your economy is propped up by the lumber export?
