Deriess Island, Sedunn
16:00 UTC+2 (Sedunnic Time)

After a journey from Bzerneleg that took more than 2 days, the Bzerneleg Fourth Fleet, along with the hundreds of aircraft and tanks and the thousands of personnel it carried, finally arrived at their destination. Deriess Island of the Kingdom of Sedunn will be the country's military base during the Reizen Civil War.

Admiral Robert Bostwick walked out of his office room on board RBS George W. Campbell and walked out of the aircraft carrier. He saw 4 other colleagues: Commander of the Bzerneleg Army Southeast Lieutenant General Thomas Rice, Commander of the Bzerneleg Naval Forces Southeast Vice Admiral Martha Bergdorf, Commander of the Bzerneleg Air Force Southeast General George Fairbanks and Commander of the Bzerneleg Marine Corps Southeast Lieutenant General Ann Carter standing on a straight line giving him a salute as he walked down the ship. He then shook hands with all of them and walked with the Commanders to the base, which is a 5-minute walk from the port.

PRESIDENTIAL MANSION, BELMONT
12:00 UTC-2 (Bzerne Time)

President Donald Blythe signing the Parliamentary Authorization for the Use of Military Force against the Reizen Independence Movement and Agot Resolution (PAUMF-RIMA) with Members of Parliament watching from behind.

PRESIDENT BLYTHE: Today, we open a new chapter in Bzerneleg's history book as we fight on foreign soil for the first time in decades to safeguard liberty and democracy. I see in every state on this planet the potential for democracy, and I see that in Reizen. Since the Reizen Civil War broke out, it had made the country an anarchy without a legitimate government. Since then, factions are fighting against each other day after day for the country they all call home. Today, let us say this: Enough is enough! Reizeners both in their country and in other countries living as refugees have suffered enough! We want liberty, democracy and justice now! To my fellow Bzernes: it doesn't matter to me your position in the political spectrum, or which party you are a member of. I ask for your counsel and help to win this war and achieve our goals in Reizen. To the people of the world: Let us march with torches held high and firm in our hands and together shine light to all corners of the world where darkness overfills and fear exists, no matter the challenges we may face along the way, we will persist. For a world of free and happy men and women, we enter the battlefield. Thank you.

The room was then filled with cheers and applause. Then everybody started to sing the national jazz song of Bzerneleg "The Flag Flies High"

I see the men who died so I can sleep at night,
I see the farmers working hard for my cup of tea,
And the men and women fighting for equal rights,
That's my beautiful country,
So let's climb the highest mountain and we fly our flag, oh, high and free,
Oh, ho, ho, Bzerneleg, God shed his grace on thee!

I see the soldiers fight to make sure thing's all right,
I see our Founding Fathers fighting for our liberty,
And the men and women who day by day preserve our democracy,
(That's my lovely country!)
At the end of my time, I see my flag on that mountain (over there) flying high and free,
That's when I know,
Oh, ho, ho, Bzerneleg, God shed his grace on thee!
