If I remember the issue about the capital correctly, it states that government buildings are located underground, i.e., not the entire city is underground, but only a part of it.

Yeah, something like that is written.

Added after 54 seconds

Following new legislation in Sciencecracy, all government facilities are built in the subterranean citadel of Sciencecracy City.

Proof, if needed.

Anhui, Avarice Group Building, penthouse, 02:22
— With your permission, boss, I think you shouldn't have come; we have everything under control. — Kezon has been a member of the organization since its founding, four years ago; he hasn't seen his boss since he was sent to Anhui to "expand the business." Currently, this man is in charge of the local branch of the organization.
— Remind me, what happened to your predecessor? — The leader of the organization, Marcus Atilius Titian, comfortably settled on an expensive sofa; with one hand, he embraced an Anhui girl sitting on his lap, and with the other, he took "candies" from the table and put them in his mouth. — Don't you remember? Let me refresh your memory: the local thugs tortured him in every way imaginable, then cut him into pieces, stuffed him into a garbage barrel, and threw him into the river. Is that what you call "under control"? — Marcus took a couple more candies and then "passed" some of the hallucinogenic substance to his lover with a deep kiss. The girl was much smaller than her man, so the effect was more pronounced on her; she probably didn't even know where she was anymore. The organization plans to start distributing this new product not only in Rex Ventorum but also abroad, but not before they consolidate their position in Anhui. — By the way, Kezon...
— Yes, boss?
— How do you like the local girls? — Marcus is twenty-nine years old, seven feet four inches tall, and weighs two hundred and nine pounds. He has medium-length blond hair and blue eyes. Unlike his subordinate, Marcus did not suffer from being overweight and was in excellent shape.
— Um, they're okay...
— Ha-ha-ha, "okay" means... — The leader continued to laugh while the Anhui girl was pulling his pants down. — They're f***ing awesome, that's what I'm telling you! — Marcus pulled the girl away from her task and grabbed her by the chin, turning her face towards his subordinate. Just look at this beauty. I was so tired of those nasty athletic chicks when we were in Griffonia. They walk around all pumped up and with SUCH asses, — to confirm his words, Marcus symbolically showed with both hands the corresponding gesture, — and they think it's normal. A woman should be slender and neat, not monstrous like those cows. Don't you agree?
— Of course, I agree, boss.
— Good, I had no doubt about you. By the way, I remember there was one there, what was her name... Ah yes, Tullia! Yes, the one who competed in the Olympics, a judoka or karateka, you know.
— Uh-huh...
— Well, she didn't like that I ran over some old man when he was crossing the street, so, let's say, she stood up for the unfortunate man. It ended with her being taken away in an ambulance after I used her face as a punching bag, ha-ha-ha. And the moral of the story is: you always have to know your place. — Marcus pointed to the girl working between his legs again.
— As you say...

Anhui, docks 03:31
— Did you hear? The scum from Velox has appeared on our streets again. — Two patrolmen from one of the many criminal organizations in Anhui stood in the night cold, watching for violators. A large shipment of drugs and weapons was stored in the docks.
— Let them roam as much as they want, but they won't dare touch our territory unless they want to end up like their previous boss... — Before the Anhui man could finish, he and his comrade collapsed to the ground, dead, with bullet holes in their heads. Behind them stood Marcus, Kezon, and four other people, all armed with pistols and submachine guns with silencers.

Diving For Denariuses

I would really like there to be a good option in this issue, implying that the gold becomes the property of the government, and those who found it receive monetary compensation in return. But, of course, there is no such option.

I gave it to the players, and nothing good came of it.

The same thing.

The evening after the events of the previous day (before the Security Council meeting and the introduction of troops into the state's territory).

Riots Continue: Should Help Be Expected?

Unfortunately, the unrest in Quasardastan shows no sign of subsiding. Chaos and anarchy are words that perfectly describe the situation in the state in brief. Our newspaper's publishing house in Hramia was subjected to several armed raids; employees literally had to shoot back at attackers while editing and printing articles. Why? Simply because the public must know. The global public. You can still visit our news page at http://qasapravda.qzd. We apologize to our esteemed readers that this evening's issue will be published without illustrations. Currently, unfortunately, the editorial staff has no way of obtaining reliable information about current events, so all information will be taken from the world wide web.
Many now believe that Quasardastan's only chance to stay afloat lies in the support of allies from the SC. But will these measures be effective, and will the Security Council actually take this step?

Terry Vorn, financial analyst, international relations specialist. [Today, 18:43], [ip address identified: Rex Ventorum, ----------------------.]
Gentlemen, I must inform you that I have arrived successfully. You won't believe it—I had only just boarded my plane when some ***** nearby were already aiming a Stinger. Can you imagine? But overall, everything ended well. For me, at least.
What else I'd like to write. Hang in there, guys. I don't know what kind of ***** is going on over there, but I have no intention of returning here. I have some savings left in the local banks; it will be enough for a while. I'll try to change my citizenship. I'll get refugee status eventually. I advise you to do the same. Quasardastan is no more. That's it.

Elena Mokva, journalist. [Today, 20:11], [ip address not identified.]
I am currently on a cargo barge seized by citizens of the state. Where are we sailing? I have no idea. What are these people around me saying? I can barely understand. Slaves—what can you expect from them. No, this is clearly not a revolution. I don't feel hatred, anger, or anything else in them, only fear. A terrible, animal terror. Everyone is shaking. Run, run wherever your eyes lead.
Help for the state? I think not. Why would they dirty their hands? How will they help? The whole country is a wasteland, the Central region is in ruins, an uneducated population, riots. Someone, please ask the leadership of Kittypink to arrange a nuclear bombing of Quasardastan. A pitiful country, a pitiful end.

Nicholas Nayer, security officer of the Temple. [Today, 20:40], [ip address identified: Quasardastan, Central Region, Hramian Oblast, Hramia, Temple.]
There is no one here. No one at all. The Temple is empty. Leonid disabled the security and anti-missile defense system. He says it's time to leave. Well, I won't leave. I remember the times of the Industrial Coup; things weren't like this then. Explosions, gunfire, corpses—the same. But a feeling like this... there was nothing like it. An inner emptiness, that's it. You realize that there is no one around, you are alone, abandoned. No friends, no enemies. Absolutely nothing. Void.
Recently, the guys and I went up to the seventy-seventh floor. Oh, it was hard, entering His chambers. I imagined it all quite differently. I thought everything would be sparkling with gold, but it's not. Our oligarchs have much more luxurious things. Ehh, Quazard, whom did you leave us to.
We searched everywhere there, then. Found nothing. Well, weapons perhaps, but who needs them now. Not weapons, but faith is needed, I believe. Faith in something, anything.

Explosions in Hramia: End of Rescue Operations.

As we were informed by telephone, after several hours the rescuers finished clearing the rubble of the building destroyed by the explosion in the Hramian Oblast and scattered in all directions. The right decision.
In addition to the corpses of twenty-three security officers, bodies presumably belonging to the owners of the "Loyalty and Liberty", "the Brotherhood of the Wrath" and "Mitasacker" corporations were discovered respectively. According to medical specialists' conclusions, thirty-seven-year-old Thomas Stammer is alive, while Dasheng-Chen (42 years old) and Bon Bargen (59 years old) died from injuries incompatible with life caused by the collapsing ceiling and blast wave. Apparently, the owner of "Mitasacker" was furthest from the epicenter at the moment the bomb was activated. However, it is difficult to say if this is actually the case, as representatives of the Stammer corporation arrived at the scene immediately after the work ended.
"We will hope for Thomas's recovery," Arthur Stammer wrote on Twitter immediately after the event. "Apparently, he took a heavy hit, and so far doctors are hesitant to make any forecasts. I hope the specialists from Actea help you, brother. Money does not matter."

Meanwhile, today ended with a total collapse and crash of the Quasardastan market. The international currency rating vncr assigned the quasard a value of 0.21, the lowest in twenty years. Devalued shares of the country's corporations are being bought up for cheap by various collector communities wishing to have such a long memory of a state that vanished in one day.

Other Events.

Toni Souk, the chairman of the board of "Impossible" bank who went missing yesterday, was found in a drainage ditch near the Central Bank building. Apparently, unknown persons ambushed and stunned him with a blow to the head, after which they continued beating him and then left him. Toni has already come to and is even trying to speak, but surprisingly, he remembers absolutely nothing of the events that occurred over the last few months. Doctors noted short-term memory loss, numerous bruises and fractures, as well as a concussion.
Meanwhile, the bank's own management decided to freeze all accounts and assets of enterprises for an indefinite period. Thus, all the largest corporations of the state are effectively bankrupt.
The board of directors of l&l inc. left the territory of Quasardastan in full today; as for the members of the Brotherhood of Wrath, they will likely never be found again.

Two Months Later (Present Time).

First Day Without Gunfire: Will the Lull Last?

The editorial office of our newspaper hastens to bring you joyful news: for the first time in a long while, not a single shot or explosion has sounded near Hramia all day. The situation in the state has finally been stabilized. These were difficult times. Every day could have been the last. Who knows if it could have been even worse when Ventorum's units crossed the border of Quasardastan. This was a difficult but just and selfless decision by the leadership of the Federative Republic and the entire Actean Security Council.
The people of our state always considered themselves free from laws. But, as it turned out, society is simply incapable of existing without leaders. There must always be people who are above others. Lawlessness also comes in different shades.
These were difficult times, full of tears, despair, bitterness and suffering, hunger, horror and death. Not everyone was destined to survive them. Someday simple people will thank our allies for their help and support in a situation that was hard for the state. Perhaps it will be their children, or even the children of their children. But many will remember today.
As you may have noticed by the slightly changed writing style, today's news is brought to you by a person taking up this difficult task for the first time. I regret to inform you that from this moment on, "Quasardastan Truth" ceases to exist.
Bright memory to the brave and courageous heroes who did not stop in the face of danger and continued their work until this bright moment. What a pity they never got to see today's sun. It is... beautiful and unforgettable. I haven't seen anything like it for a long time.

Briefly on the Main Points.

Thomas Stammer, head of the "Mitasacker" corporation who miraculously survived during the "Hramia terrorist attack," is currently still in stable-critical condition. In addition to the consequences of the building's destruction, the monopoly owner suffered numerous burns (over forty percent of the body, including parts of the face) due to a fire that started in the building. Despite this, according to leading specialists and doctors, his life is not under threat.
Toni Souk, chairman of the board of "Impossible" bank, announced today the resumption of the enterprise's work. Unfortunately, he still failed to remember the last few months of his own life, but he has already expressed personal gratitude to the Federative Republic for help in stabilizing the situation in the state. He also noted that Quasardastan will need some time to fully recover from the consequences of this crisis, which the people have already named the "Black Era," but the country's political course will remain largely unchanged.

Meanwhile, the quasard exchange rate holds at... To be honest, I don't understand this, but the state's national currency is completely devalued. Shares of Quasardastan corporations have spread across the world and were bought up by various communities in different regions of Actea. Who will now get the empty and half-destroyed factories? It remains a mystery.

In its short history, Quasardastan has survived many misfortunes and hardships. And now, as never before, the state stands at a crossroads. I cannot say exactly what awaits us ahead. But it doesn't matter. I am ready to accept my fate.

From this moment on, I begin the restructuring of Quasardastan; another wall of text will be significantly later (if at all), thank you all for your attention, until we meet again.

Someone, ask the Kittywink leadership to arrange a nuclear bombing of Quasardastan. A miserable country, a miserable end.

Nothing more needs to be said.

Yeah, and then they’ll kick me out of the security council, I know you guys.

I would really like there to be a reasonable option in this issue, which implies that the gold becomes the property of the government, and those who found it receive monetary compensation in return. But, of course, there is no such option.

Following new legislation in Rex Ventorum, citizens are regularly found digging for treasure in their gardens.

I decided to act reasonably, but the Necropolis, of course, ignores any good intentions. I expected some pros and cons, but in reality, there are no significant changes (again). And what about corruption? -1?

Hero, if I understand correctly, has the situation more or less stabilized for you?

More or less, yes. Although, for now, the country is not really being governed by anyone (if you can put it that way), as the new government has not yet been formed.

In that case, welcome our guests: Gaston Martino, head of ACME, is traveling to Kvasardastan and requesting an audience with the Stammers Corporation.

Decided to take a good approach, but the developers, of course, ignore any good intentions. I expected some pros and cons, but in the end, there are no significant changes (again).

civil rights +2
This is a big plus.

I don't understand at all why this version is considered "good." The third one is good.

p.s. The rematch with Heroist ended quickly. Now you have all white and fluffy states, but who will be the world's evil now? Will only one Kittypink have to take on that role?

When a relatively minor official in your government vowed to increase the standard of education in Arkondia, the press came knocking on your door to ask how this might actually be done.

было?
