(Is the art tuff chat) With the success of early rebuilding, the Federation is ready to begin its 2nd Economic Miracle. Across the federation, public work programs finalized the reconstruction of many frontline towns. Allowing the bomb towns to be retired for the last time hopefully. The remaining underground facilities are torndown finally as the military industry is torn down. Demobilization is declared across the federation, allowing troops to finally return to their families, similarly the draft is halted across Catalonia. The Nationalguard is however not demobilized, to protect our freedom. At the same time, the 2409 elections of February begin, with Ramir Grajera winning and being elected president alongside El Partit Demòcrata Popular Català. One of the DPC's policies is quickly instated...El Programa Nova València. Across occupied Valencia, Reeducation is started, teaching the new generation of Zala'iyan's about the crimes of Madridiya. And in a very controversial move, any news or talk that puts Madridiya is a good light is banned and charged as a crime. Several news outlets that are pro-madridiyan are raided and taken down.
{The 2nd Madridiyan-Spanian War} Catalonia has major stakes in this war, much larger than other wars with Madridiya. If Spania were to fall, then Catalonia would be the obvious next target, and unlike many other nations, Madridiya will not take a break. While the new cold war is a favor to us as we are a member of a major bloc, Iberia is quickly becoming a flash point. It is believed it will only be a matter of time before one of the big 5 gets involved in the conflict. Subsequently, Catalonia begins immediate support of the small Spanian Army. Advisors and some of the elite divisions trained in the very clumped together wars against Madrid as sent to Spania to train up milita and even arm as many as possible, even as the expense of certain Catalan Guardsmen divisons. Luckily, Madrid has not made any sign yet of an attack on us, giving us some time. The remaining of the mobilized army is set to defensive positions across the coast and especially Valencia. The Balearic Island are especially a part of this defensive ploy. Being the very cradle of connection between Catalonia and its union member state of Herzegovina. And later that night, a message is sent to the leadership of Madridiya "To the leadership of Moroccan Madridiya, the Federation of Catalonia and Herzegovina issues this warning to avoid war between our states. If any civilian ship of the Federation is attacked or any attack is mounted onto the sovereign territory of the federation then a state of war will be established between our states"
