The Jungle Gazette
Your Light in the Jungle - October 2, 440 AD
Conspiracy Afoot!
Secret Projet revealed!
What began and an innocent request for 40 Lytons soon turned ugly. Amidst a sea of assassination threats and at least one failed attempt on former President Ninot's life, our undercver reporters were able to uncover the truth behind
Plan Vodka. It would appear that it is merely an attempt to move HoleInTheWall one tile south. This will give the city access to the sea, and therefore a port, as well as grain which can be used to make any number of alcoholic beverages in the $Mini-Game.

Our Armies Victorious Again!
Persia crumbles before our might
Our armies procede to march over Persian terrain. In a swift move, Aggie inspired our knights to claim 3 Persian cities in short order What is more amazingis that it happened without a single loss! "It is as ifwe ripped the very heart from these people when we took the Pyramids. They have lost the very will to fight. One could almost take pity on them as they lay down arms before us and flee in terror." Aggie stated "It has been interesting to hear the stories when we first started of how we would never be able to defeat these legendary Immortals change into cries of terror, and Persians calling our own knights invincible."

Geofort Slips past Banana Peels
Evas remain unbeaten
The Geofort Evas continued their dominance over the Junle ball league with an impressive 70 - 56 win over the Banana HQ Banana Peels. "Though I'll probably win week 4 and 5, the few games after that are quite difficult for me. If the schedule had been slightly different there is a very good chance I'd only be 2-2 after week four. There is getting to be a lot of pressure to keep this streak alive." Apocolypse, the team coach had to say. Next week, Geofort will visit Timeline and try to extend their unbeaten streak.

Statistics are in!
Reddawg at it again
"The State of the Nation: 430 AD"
excerpt:
MAJOR POWERS: (any nation with 15% more points than the mean; "lost civs" not listed):
1. Apolyton, 35.0% above mean (a good rise)
2. Greece, 32.7% above mean (a small rise)
3. Rome, 16.1% above mean (a new Major Power!)
*There were a lot of changes and shake-ups over the last term, and even more this term!. The world is amazed that, after Apolyton joining the ranks of the Major Powers last term, that Rome is now also among the ranks. The entire face of international relations will be transformed, as there is no longer a bipolarity around Greece and Apolyton but a three-pronged system, with Rome dominating Abananaba Minor. It is also noted that our nation has surpassed Greece.*
