Year 12 Day 9
Today, after a week of closed door negotiations, it was announced by the CIS Senate that Hoar Chall Enginering and Kaos Galactica Federations application for succession from the CIS had been ratified, allowing them to officially leave the Confederacy. While news of this possible event has been in the tabloids for about a month, the Senate had not commented until now. The factions wish to continue relations with the CIS, but their current burdens are currently taking up more time they had anticipated and they felt they couldn’t keep up with their CIS responsibility. Also, discontent over the election results may have had something to do with HCE’s desire to leave.
On a lighter note, Loronar Corporation, a ship production faction working from the Skone System, had submitted an application for admittance to the CIS a week ago. The senate met and approved the application unanimously, marking Loronar the first faction granted access to the CIS by the Senate. Tyriss Haxim, leader of Loronar, was very pleased with the news and looks to help the CIS built its fleet and income base. Questions regarding either large announcement should be directed to the Supreme Commander.
