A Summary of New Year's Eve

New Year's Eve 2017 was perhaps the most shocking and horrible one for GI-Land since the Great War.
GI-Land got hit by three terroristic attacks at one day and it has to get investigated, how all this could happen. Here are the most recent numbers and facts we can give to the public.

31st December 2017, ~11:30 h

King and Leader Gianluca IV. leaves GI-Land with his private jet to travel to Erinor. He will attend the funeral of former Ura'sia Yena and the opening of the memorial for the victims of the Cirian earthquake last year, in which the former Gianlucian ambassador to Erinor got killed by falling debris.

31st December 2017, ~15 h

Gianlucian troops arrive, after a week of marching through Serevan territory and only meeting little resistance, in Northern Ramica (Sereva, Erinor), where they come almost instantly under fire of Bafuto Serevai rebels. A little camp can get built up at around 15:40 h.

31st December 2017, ~17:10 h

Still fighting against the rebels, a big explosion occured that killed 31 soldiers and injured 60.
The Bundesarmee withdraws behind the borders of the city of Ramica to their camp to recover.
In total 36 soldiers got killed and 67 soldiers got injured that day.

31st December 2017, 19:50 h

Hundreds of people (between 500 and 850) stand in front of the Erinoran embassy and lay down bouquets and candles in remembrance of former Ura'sia Yena and the Cirian earthquake last year.
They gather to participate in the minute of silence at 20 h.

31st December 2017, 20 h

The bells of the St. Peter's Church, which is nearby, begin to ring. Only around 20 seconds into the minute of silence, shots can be heard. A terrorist, who is still on the loose and whose identity or motive is still not clear, shoots with an automatic rifle inside the crowd of people in front of the embassy and kills 12 people instantly. 160 more get injured, 40 of them heavily.
The death toll of those victims will rise to 20 throughout the night.

31st December 2017, 20:30 h

The Atlantic Public Transport Company AVG and the Gianlucische Bahn stop their services until midnight.

31st December 2017, 21:20 h

The Atlantic police warns the public about an big, skinny and armed man of around 30 years, who wears dark clothes. The department suspects the terrorist's location to be somewhere in Central or Southern Atlantis.

31st December 2017, 22 h

The NYE party mile in Atlantis between the main station and the stadium opens. Visitors from all around the world want to celebrate the change of the year together and want to watch the fireworks prepared by professionals.

01st January 2018, 0 h

The AVG and Gianlucische Bahn start operating their services again with permission by the police. Everywhere throughout the world the beginning of 2018 gets celebrated.

01st January 2018, ~1 h

A truck drives into a party mile exit, where hundreds of people gathered, with around 65 km/h.
Currently we talk about 37 dead people, who got hit by the truck, and 6 more dead people, including the terrorist, who committed suicide, who got killed by an automatic rifle.
213 more people got injured, 27 heavily.

The overall death toll rises with this to 99, the overall number of injured people by all attacks combined to 432, 59 of them heavily. 

Without a doubt it can be said, that this day will be remembered all throughout GI-Land and the region.
Tonight Gianluca IV. will speak to the nation in his New Year's Address and one can only hope, he'll find the right words for the current state of shock GI-Land is in.
