For decades, Spain has remained one of the most popular holiday destinations for the British public, prized for its warm climate, long beaches, and relaxed pace of life. With millions of Britons travelling there each year, ensuring their safety abroad has become an increasing concern for the government.
According to sources close to Downing Street, this was the reasoning behind the Prime Minister’s decision to place a region of Spain under British control. The move was framed as a necessary step to protect British citizens overseas while also guaranteeing a secure and familiar environment in which they could отдых, unwind, and enjoy the sun.
“This was about safeguarding the public,” a government spokesperson said. “If Britons are going to spend their holidays there in such large numbers, it made sense to ensure stability, order, and proper oversight.”
Revolt Quickly Contained
Earlier this week, a small-scale Spanish revolt broke out in the occupied region. British authorities described the unrest as disorganised and short-lived. The British military, supported by the Special Air Service (S.A.S.), moved swiftly to restore control.
The operation concluded within hours. All individuals involved in the resistance were arrested and have since been jailed to prevent any repeat incidents. Officials confirmed that the area is now fully secure and that holiday operations have resumed as normal.
A Ministry of Defence statement praised the professionalism of the forces involved, noting that “order was restored with minimal disruption to beachfront activities.”
Unusual Grievances Cited
Civilians questioned following the arrests offered a range of unexpected explanations for the uprising. Several claimed that tensions had escalated due to British tourists “drinking all the beer” and “occupying the best spots on the beach” from early morning onward.
Others complained of sun loungers being reserved with towels hours before use, crowded beachfronts filled with loud music, and an apparent refusal by some visitors to learn even basic Spanish phrases. Local authorities also noted grievances regarding late-night noise, public drunkenness, and the increasing difficulty for residents to access their own cafés and restaurants during peak hours.
Additional complaints included congested streets, overburdened public services, and what one resident described as “an alarming number of full English breakfasts appearing on otherwise traditional menus.” While officials acknowledged these frustrations, they stressed that none justified armed resistance.
A government spokesperson later remarked that “high tourism volumes inevitably bring cultural friction,” adding that steps would be taken to better manage beach etiquette, beverage distribution, and noise levels moving forward.
Business as Usual
Despite the brief unrest, government officials insist that the occupation has fully achieved its intended goal. With the resistance defeated and order restored, daily life across the region has returned to normal. British holidaymakers remain safe, flights continue uninterrupted, and beaches are once again described by local authorities as “peaceful, orderly, and very full.”
Security operations have now concluded, and military patrols have been scaled back to a visible but non-intrusive presence. Resorts, restaurants, and transport hubs are operating at full capacity, with no further disturbances reported since the unrest was brought to an end.
In a statement issued earlier today, the government confirmed that the individuals responsible for the revolt have been detained and that no organised resistance remains. Officials stressed that the situation is now stable and under control.
The Prime Minister is expected to address the nation later this week, reaffirming that the government’s priority remains the comfort, security, and relaxation of British citizens — at home and abroad.
He is also expected to deliver a message directly to Spanish residents, acknowledging recent tensions and committing to improved peacekeeping measures moving forward. According to Downing Street sources, the Prime Minister will emphasise that the United Kingdom intends to govern responsibly, prevent further unrest, and ensure that local communities and visitors alike can coexist under stable and secure conditions.
With calm restored and the holiday season continuing uninterrupted, officials maintain that the situation has decisively moved past unrest and into recovery.

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
