It is a beautiful language though and this was interesting to translate. Escpecially since it is done sentence by sentence and character by character.

Kuomintang vows China will resist Japanese invasion!

Forum attachment

We turn now to a review of the events of this war. In 1937, after twenty years of abusive imperialism, the Japanese attacked Peiping during a fabricated incident. The invader was swift to occupy territory and merciless. Throughout 1937 he siezed strategic points along the coast.

Shanghai fell after 3 months of fighting, in which both we and the enemy sustained heavy losses. The National Revolutionary Army was able to slow the onslaught of the Japanese, though with heavy sacrifices. The fall of Nanking, until recently the Chinese capital, was officially announced later that year. Since then we have retreated, with most of the government staff and assets, to Chengtu.

If we are to emerge from this war, it must be as a united nation. Therefore it is necessary until the end of this conflict for the Kuomintang government to retain power. Historically, this has always been our role -- to carry on the National Revolution against foreign invaders and imperialists, and against warlords and usurpers in China herself.

During the overthrow of the Manchu occupiers, it was the Kuomintang that ended their extravagance and mismanagement of our country. After the Warlord Era, it was our party that led the Northern Expedition to conquer the Beiyang Warlords -- in part to unite against the Japanese threat. It was our negotiations that secured the United Front with the communists in 1937. It was, and is, the Kuomintang that led, and leads, the resistance against the Japanese invader.

We remain committed to the legacy of Dr. Sun Yat-sen; to the Three Principles on which the future Chinese society must be built -- Nationalism, Civil Rights, and the People's Livelihood.The Kuomintang party represents the Chinese people and the national revolution.

Yeah I'm not gonna write any more of these.

I'm interested to see the Barbarossa article.

On a side note, apart from the German one on invading the Netherlands, I notice that almost all of these are defensive and talk about getting invaded, or are like the USA one remarks on other affairs.

German Invasion of USSR

Generalitie News:

Comrades! The time has come to stand up and defend our great country against the fascist invaders. We have achieved much in our socialist state, but now our very existence is at stake. The enemy seeks to destroy us and our way of life, but we will not falter. We will fight with all our might to defend our land, our people, and our ideals. This is not the first time an arrogant leader has tread on Russian soil expecting naught a consequence for their unruly actions, never once have we been defeated we will not make this an exception!

On June 22, 1941, Germany launched a brutal attack on the Glorious Soviet Union without any declaration of war. We now stand united in the face of this aggression and will fight fiercely to defend our land and people. We are confident in our victory over the fascist invaders and will not rest until they are defeated. Every Soviet citizen must do their part in this effort, whether it be on the front-line or supporting the war effort from home. Our spirit is unbreakable and our determination unyielding. Victory will be ours!

Allied News:

Our glorious leader Fox-Company made his appearance at a meeting with the Allied Powers 10 days ago, in London, with his Foreign ministry attache and military aids to discuss the tyrannical German state and its horrible leader, (Username here) who has been a recurring issue in European Politics for quite some time now, and has drawn the final straw. The invasion of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, which will be their undoing. Germany's leader, (username here) states the reason for invasion was, and quote; "A large build up of Russian forces on the split Polish border" which is nothing more than a unjust justification for an attack. The Red Army was mobilized this morning, to intercept the fascist armies at key points in Europe, while the discussion for a new front in Europe by the Allied Powers held in London, promised a new front in France within the following year, Russian aid has been discussed greatly and new plans have been written to deal with the greatest threat witnessed by the European and Russian continent as a whole.

Industrialities News:

The USSR has put its factories to use for militaristic equipment and use with deadly efficiency speed and productivity, producing T-model tanks, while production plants are being built throughout the country, farmlands have been enriched and are now producing with greater effect than before seen, many conscripts have shown up at recruitment offices to meet this new foe and protect their Motherland, we urge all citizens of the Republics party to put aside all difference for the defense of our great Nation.

Otherly News:

Discussions with the Ministry of Japan have proven fruitful as an agreement has been reached between the two parties considering the invasion of the Chinese. Further information has been labeled Confidential by the State.

GERMANY INVADES USSR

Today,22nd June 1941, a day that our nation will never forget. The biggest invasion of history has been launched against us by the evil fascist forces. In these dark hours, the Supreme leader of the Soviet Union, Joe Bartolozzi addressed his people, here is his speech:

"Ladies and gentlemen, comrades and fellow countrymen, this is a dark day in our nation's history. As we gather around , we are acutely aware of the grim circumstances that have befallen our great motherland. The dawn of June 22, 1941, has brought with it a merciless invasion by the forces of Nazi Germany.

We must acknowledge the enormity of our loss in men and machinery, and the sacrifices made by our brave soldiers who defend our homeland. Our hearts are heavy with the burden of this war, but we will not be crushed.

As your leader, I stand before you today as a symbol of our unity and strength. We are a nation that has endured many trials, and we will rise again. The enemy may have taken our territory, but they will never break our spirit.

It is in times of crisis that the true character of a nation is revealed. Our people, our soldiers, and our workers will work tirelessly, side by side, to resist the invader and defend our homeland. The spirit of resilience and determination that courses through our veins will be our greatest weapon.

The world watches as the Soviet Union faces this perilous moment in history. Our determination and our unity will inspire not just our own citizens but all those who long for freedom and justice. We will forge an unbreakable bond, a unity that the enemy will never understand.

Remember, my fellow countrymen, we may be wounded, but we are far from defeated. The sun may have set on our cities, but it will rise again, shining on a free and resolute nation. Together, we will triumph!"

"We can be wrong, or we can know it, but we can't do both at the same time." ~ Heisenberg
