Defend Manauia
Plan to close, develop preserve must be stopped
The Xiomeran government, and especially the coterie of greedy tyrants in the Palace of Flowers, are known for being horrible people. If someone wrote a compilation of the horrible things the rulers of Xiomera have done over the centuries, it would be titled “Heinous Acts And How To Commit Them”. But the proposal by Secretary of Infrastructure, Development and Planning Ueman to close the Manauia Preserve and open the lands of the isolated Teyatia people to development, if allowed, will go down in history as one of the most heinous acts ever committed not just by Xiomera, but by any nation in history.
The Manauia Preserve is one of the last parts of the world that is truly almost untouched by man. Since 1893, it has been off limits to all but a few visitors every year, and development has been forbidden. The environment of Manauia is beautiful and pristine, almost as it was at the dawn of time. Closing the Manauia Preserve will give greedy Xiomeran businesses free rein to destroy this paradise. With so few places left in the world that are truly in the state that nature intended for them, we cannot afford to destroy another.
But the loss to our world would go far deeper if Manauia is developed. The pristine state of Manauia Island has led to an incredible biodiversity that is matched in few other places. There are species, such as the Huenyan eagle and the Tlaxonetl frog, that can now only be found on Manauia Island, having long since gone extinct on Huenya itself. There may even be animals and plants on Manauia that have not been discovered yet, as much of the island remains unexplored. The loss of the biodiversity on Manauia Island would not only endanger Huenya, but the entire world.
The loss would be even greater for the Teyatia, the indigenous residents of Manauia Island and the only people living within the confines of the Xiomeran Empire who have real freedom. Since Manauia was declared off-limits to outsiders in 1893, the Teyatia have lived in isolation, their unique culture and heritage left undisturbed by outside influence. Xiomeran intrusion would put the Teyatia, and their culture, at serious risk in what would amount to a cultural genocide.
Xiomera’s plans for the Manauia Preserve must be stopped, at all costs. We urge the governments and nations of the world to recognize the threat that development of Manauia Island would present, and place pressure on the Xiomeran government to abandon its plans for the island.
Kerlile no friend to Huenyan women, or to freedom
The recent alliance emerging between the Xiomeran regime and Kerlile is one of mutual need. Xiomera needs allies to help prop up its unjust regime, and to accept the trade goods it churns out which prop up its economy and keeps people from revolting in the streets. Meanwhile, after the Haven Accords, Kerlile needs anyone willing to trade with it to help keep its own totalitarian regime afloat. So, a marriage made in totalitarian heaven was formed. Xiomera and Kerlile now trade with each other, and provide each other support and cover for their repressive governments and their questionable agendas.
Tyrannical regimes usually band together, so this isn’t a huge surprise. One thing we would ask the leaders of Kerlile to consider, however: have you ever stopped to think about what your enabling of the Xiomeran regime is doing to Huenyan women?
The government of Kerlile claims that its purpose is to protect women. Clearly this only applies to Kerlian women, as the maintenance of a regime that routinely suppresses women in Xiomera doesn’t seem to bother the rulers in Grapevale one bit.
But we might ask them to consider these numbers:
- 8, the number of women who are part of the “XUN 17” who have been detained and are facing treason charges from the Xiomeran government for simply reporting the facts and speaking out against tyranny
- 96, the number of Xiomeran women who have been arrested this year so far alone on political charges
- 735, the number of women who have fled Huenya, their homeland, this year alone rather than continue to live in a land ruled by tyranny
- 1138, the total number of women in prison in Xiomera on political charges or for activism
We personally appeal to President Rebecca Arnott: if you, your government and your nation are truly a friend to women, withdraw your support for the Xiomeran regime.
If you really want to show the world that Kerlile is serious about change, not supporting an autocratic Xiomeran regime that represses Huenyan women who speak their minds would be the best way to start.
