11/13/2656- Draklor Commonality Refuses To Provide Taxes To Union

"Today, the Draklor Commonality refused to provide taxes to the Union until forces are redirected to help stop the Satranali Confederation's attacks on the Commonality. The Union tax system has each Commonality collect its own taxes, with an among selected by the Union being given to it. While this removes the burden, and negative connotations from the populous, of tax collection from the Union, it also means all of its tax revenue is first in the hands of the Commonalities. This tactic has been tried multiple times in Union history, usually ending with the military getting involved and the Commonality leader being removed, or a civil war. However, the stretched nature of the Union's military means it likely cannot respond to the Commonality's actions, leaving the Union's response unknown. "
