Breuddwyd Announces Coup Policy
In responce to a number of micronational coups, sepcifically within the dutch micronational sector, the Kingdom of Breuddwyd has announced a new policy on how it intends to deal with such occurances. In a statement to the micro-nations.org forum the King of Breuddwyd claimed that this new policy was the best reconciliation of his belief that all those involved in micronational coups should be taken out the back and shot, and the fact that coups in micronations often succeed fait accompli (namely when the entities resulting from coups have the only remaining claim to a micronational identity.)
The policy includes a very broad definition of what constitutes a coup. Coups are defined as including the takeover of a micronations infastructure, for example through hacking, to the setup of a rival entity laying claim to a micronational identity as well as coups from those in charge of a micronation. The policy statement provides an example of "the President of ExampleNation declaring themselves Emperor and attempting to assume a role of absolute power contrary to ExampleNation's democratic constitution."

[T-R] Breuddwyd launches CashMod Banking System
The Kingdom of Breuddwyd today announced the launch of its new banking system, based on the phpBB Cash Mod. The new banking system is fully integrated with forum logins at the Kingdom's phpBB board, making Breuddwyd one of three micronations to pursue this model of integration. What makes the Breuddwydian system unique is the utilization of an automated post reward and betting agency.
Post rewards have been attempted by a variety of micronations in the past, they have all failed due to one of two problems. The sheer amount of work calculating and assigning rewards to peoples bank accounts, and preventing users from spamming for cash. The Breuddwyd system automatically assigns post rewards. Users recieve an insignifigant 2 gwy for each new topic or reply on the Breuddwyd forums, where users recieve signifigant rewards (10 gwy) is when other users reply to topics they started.
The system also allows for the government of Breuddwyd to issue fines and award bonuses. The King of Breuddwyd, Ciaron Broeck, has stated that these issues will be dealt with by legislation.
The betting agency allows any user to bet any amount of Gwy on any event. Sporting odds are automatically calculated by bets365.com, other odds will be calculated by the board administration.

[T-R] Hanover Rejects Babkha Treaty
King Alexander of Hanover today rejected the treaty that had been proposed between the kingdoms of Hanover and Babkha. The treaty had in fact been ratified by both nations' parliaments in 2003, but had never been signed by the monarchs. Earlier this month, it as passed a second time by Hanover's Parliament. The king's rejection, however, spells the end of the treaty's long and arduous road.
King Alexander said he rejected the treaty because of a clause which would have obliged Hanover to ban citizens from its own forums if such a punishment was given in a Babkhan court. He said that, were they to be punished by a Babkhan court in such a way, he "cannot guarantee that the civil rights of the accused have been upheld." He did comment on the wider issue Hanover's relations with Babkha, saying that the rejection "might be received as a decidedly unfriendly event in the Kingdom of Babkha, but it actually is not a statement on Babkha in any way."
