HERALD THE NEW YEAR: THE REPUBLIC TURNS FOURTEEN!
Fourteen years ago, a score of colonies pledged themselves to a growing flotilla of warships under the purview of D’Tan. At the time, the pledge was seen as a means of providing common defense against an increasingly erratic and dangerous Ancient Regime.
And while the Federation and Klingon Empire offered token support, most expected the movement to fail. Yet against all odds, the burgeoning flotilla defied all expectations. And since then, the Republic has defied all expectations. The Elachi invaders, the Tal Shiar Invaders, the Star Empire, the Iconians: All of have been driven away from Mol’Rihan.
Now, we are seen as equals among our allies. And so long as we can keep it, we have a nation to call our own. None would have been possibly without the dedication of all our citizens, whomever and whereever they might be.
The work is not done. We here at the Wings and Talons wish all of you brave servicemembers and citizens a Happy New Year. And we wish the same to our allies that we will continue standing with.
Glory to the Republic!
RRF CLOSES IN ON CULPRITS OF VIOLENCE ON BREEN FRONTIER
After having seemingly revealed the Breen were not responsible for violence on the Breen frontier, the RRF has announced that they are closing in on those responsible for recent troubles in this theater. Though the RRF declined to offer specifics, the announcement was seen as a means of reassuring both Republic citizens as well as close allies that war against the Breen would not be taken place.
“I will be clear. The Breen were responsible. But those who are, well… I can provide specifics, but I can notassure you all that they will face summary justice.” said a spokesperson of Admiral Kererek.
Journalists at the Wings and Talon were, however, able to parse together who would be leading this impending assault. Officers of the 11th Expeditionary Flotilla. When pressed for a comment, members of the 11th Flotilla declined to respond.
RRF BOLSTERS COLONIAL DEFENSES IN LIGHT OF BORG ACTIVITY
In light of confirmed reports of Borg activity, RRF Command announced this morning that it would be redeploying multiple RRF assets to protect colonies within the Republic. The move is seen as a response to a recent encounter between an allied Starfleet vessel and the Borg.
Further, Romulan Republic Intelligence had begun installing redundances to the national subspace network in the event the Borg attempt to jam communications between Mol’Rihan and the outer colonies.
Lastly, although Tri’Vokil is not part of the Republic, RRF Command has agreed to assist in its defense in the event the Borg attempt to attack the colony.
“We look after our own. And we will not abandon any colony or facility, no matter how small, to this threat. To do so would betray the oaths we swore during the Revolution.” said a spokesperson of Admiral Kererek.
ROMULAN REPUBLIC TEAMS ACCEPTED INTO SEVERAL INTERGALACTIC SPORT ASSOCIATIONS

The three principal sports the Republic will be participating in are as followed: Powerboarding, Football (or soccer, according to some translations) and Baseball. National Republic-wide teams will be made for each, while internal Republic leagues for various constituent colonies will also be created.

Already, rivalries are being forged. It is expected that, next year, the Bajorans will be the first major rival of the Republic in all competitive sports.
