In regards to the coup attempt in Austenasia

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Good evening -

On June 6th, the former Prime Minister of the Empire of Austenasia, Andrew Musgrave, unilaterally declared himself
the leader of a new, successor nation - the Commonwealth of Austenasia - and took it upon himself to extralegally seize the electronic 
assets of the very nation he claims to be the succesor of. [1][2]

This is not the first time Mr.Musgrave has caused a serious microinternational incident [3], and it likely will not be the last.

In the power invested in me as the Executive Director, as well as Corte Asteras representative on the international stage, 
I call upon The Directory condemn Mr.Musgrave for his abhorrent and illegal behavior, and to enshrine the formal recognition 
of the Empire of Austenasia in to law. 

- Executive Director Alexander Grady
