This article appears in Varati and IX-T D3-43 from today and its content reflects the stringent word-count limits imposed by the Galnet news network.

In the space of two weeks, the Canonn has gone from being a minor presence in COL 285 SECTOR IX-T D3-43 to taking control of the system and now, after a brief but intense civil war against Varati Blue Public, Kagan Vision also.

Following the victory, Prof D Luffy explained how the war for control of Kagan Vision started, and why the victory was so important for the residents throughout the system.

“We conducted an audit of the government accounts after our landslide election victory here and discovered that Varati Blue Public had maintained control of Kagan Vision by paying substantial bribes to successive local governments.”

“We asked VBP to relinquish control of the station, because we couldn’t allow such corruption to continue. They refused, forcing us into a war which ended on the 7th May with a crushing victory for us, and a massive loss of assets for VBP.”

“We are now turning our attention to similar practises in Varati, and anticipate there being more wars before we can say that this corruption has been eradicated.”
