[Orion] Welcome Cuba / Lithuania-Latvia War

Day 3,137, 01:31 Published in Canada Canada by New Faustian Man



Hello Orion citizens, allies and friends o/


Today Orion would like to announce a new member! Last night, our present membership voted unanimously in favour of admitting eCuba into the fold.


Negotiations with eCuba have been ongoing for months. They showed themselves a nation willing to aid their Orion allies on the battlefield, and we hope Orion reciprocated this help over the past few months and illustrated we are in turn an alliance worth joining.


So, on behalf of Orion HQ and all member-states and citizens of Orion nations, I'd just like to say:



Bienvenidos Cuba!
Welcome Cuba!











The second order of business is a short update of the recent war between Orion member Lithuania, and Pacifica's Latvia. Whatever the background to the conflict, hostilities were mechanically inaugerated by Latvia, as we can see here and the war soon got into full swing.

Despite Latvia's obvious advantage in terms of alliances, the war quickly turned against them, as you can see by the map below
Latvian capital Riga fell to Lithuanian forces on Day 3,126


As of a few days ago, Latvia remains entirely wiped and under the control of Lithuanian forces.

Overtures have been made to Latvia and her government regarding peace, if that's something they wish to pursue. However if the decision is continuance of the war, Orion are 100% behind Lithuania, whatever happens.
