Today marks the 100th anniversary of the unification of the Nadiyan isles and subsequent formation of Nadiya as a properly unified and sovereign international entity, even tho Nadiya's 100th anniversary was officially celebrated on January 1st 5740, the Confederal government announced that proper celebrations would be held on the first of May to coincide with both Worker's Day and the 100th anniversary of the execution of Tsar Ivan IV as a result of the Kaisergrad trials.

Before the celebrations began, the Presidium released a statement on the official government newspaper announcing that the entirety of the week from May 1st until May 8th is a bank holiday which will be covered by the Nadiyan government while critical sectors such as healthcare, civil protection, and childcare will have their workers' pay tripled for the duration of the week as an insensitive for them to work even more efficiently. Many had expected the Nadiyan Central Bank to respond by a statement annulling the Presidium's decision, but to the suprise of many, NCB governor Alexandra Bacque revealed that she personally proposed the idea to Premier Liliya Pavlina who then moved the idea to the Presidium, and since the collective head of state is dominated by communists, the measure passed instantly.

Celebrations of the anniversary consisted of Polyakova Olga's televised speech in Zarvospol thanking the citizens of Nadiya of helping to keep the country unified and free even during times of hardships such as the Kerisian War and always willing to express their voices and demands through the use of the Confederation's democratic institutions be it confederal elections, regional elections, and referendums which help steady the course of the country. After her speech, parades starting walking down the major boulevards of each confederal capital with each being led by units of the Nadiyan Confederated Forces and trailed behind by chars representing critical sectors of Nadiyan society such as doctors, policemen, firefighters, teachers, oil workers, engineers, househusbands, etc and all that while a regiment of the Nadiyan Federation of Symphonists played the national anthem.

While this was happening on land, on the sea the units of the Nadiyan Confederated Navy performed exercises off the coast of Brakav alongside conducting a wide scale patrol of the country's territorial waters and showcasing the Svetovit Corporation for Peace's brand-new frigate and nuclear powered submarines used by the NCN to ensure the country's safety in territorial waters. Then at 12:00 Kozaki Central Time, a division of the Nadiyan Aerospacial Army launched an intercontinental ballistic missile from a base in the Lesnovian Taiga all the way to a designated safe crash point north of Cildania after sending proper warnings to Keymon and Likadonia whose airspace would be perforated by the missile. The missile called Deliverance-5, it can reach theoretically reach up to twelve thousand kilometers in reach, the NAA couldn't showcase it properly since such a launch would cause major ruckus internationally, the main sources accredited for the missile is the Nadiyan Space Agency since all of their discoveries and researches have been repurposed for military purposes.

The Nadiyan Aerospacial Army reinstated their "commitment to maintain a mass destruction weapons free world order" and that Nadiya is "in no shape or form actively research or developing mass destruction weapons since our last MDW, BT-78 was dismantled in 5630 after the end of the Second Liberation War".
