Regent George Maxwells, in New Copala City
They say second parts are never good, but this time it seems it will be different. With Haaneans, Copalans and Anastasians uniting forces, a glorious victory has been achieved. Finally, after years of fights and prosecution from two different states, the people has got what they have long been awaiting for: independence. A project that started with the secret invasion with sticks and knieves of an inhabited land, which was then built up recreating the old Anastasia and Copala Cities, while building new, modern ones.
An endeavor planned over the past few months, the conquest and establishment of the Anastacopalan Kingdom, organized by a broad front of Copalan and Anastasian associations and parties now united in the Coalition for Independence and Common Prosperity, was led by a small group of one thousand settlers, all former residents of Copala and Anastasia City. These, the first heroes of this new state, steered their way through the treacherous waters of the Mediterranean to land at last on the shores of the Kingdom, there quickly defeating the native tribes to found the cities, New Copala and New Anastasia, in which they now live.
Over the week after this initial victory, large amounts of supplies to construct housing, roads, and basic utilities, in addition to food, arrived with even more settlers by boat, and later by plane, in a process funded in part by the Coalition but also through the philanthropy of the Ueliohen family, which controls a number of international corporations and holds significant wealth. With this support, alongside the work of the arrivals, Anastacopala has already found itself well-developed and welcome to even more settlers, who continue to stream in by the hour.
However, not everything has been done by the Anastacopalan people alone, as it has been mentioned before. Where did they get everything from? The answer, ones again, lies within the deep secrets of European politics, or it used to, just before it is unveiled today: Spain has been key in the success of such an endeavour. The boats, the planes, most of the equipment that was once employed to bring supplies has been leased by the Spanish Government, the first European Government to oficially recognise the nation and that has already sweared to protect Anastacopala from any foreign interferences.
Now, a new horizon can be seen from the hills of the new Mount Rushmore in Copala's Forest (New Copala City), with a prosperous future ahead. The Anastacopalan Kingdom is finally the land many once dreamt, and died dreaming of.
