After the execution of Kenesary Khan and his attempted uprising, the Russian Tsardom pushed to project power down south into Turkestan. What the Tsar believed to be a quick incursion into Central Asia was met with logistic issues and intervention from the Ottoman Empire and the British.
Today, an agreement was signed which has promised to resolve the Orient Crisis we have been following for the better part of this decade. Reports from the region have said that Egypt's army has sent the bulk of their forces away from the border of the Ottoman Empire, as their former base in Adana is returned to the Ottoman Empire.
A statement from the Sultan himself was recorded by one of our field reporters:
Signed on the 2nd of August, 1840, this Constantinople Convention puts an end to the Eastern Crisis, with Muhammad Ali returning the control of Crete and Adana to Ottoman officials.
In exchange, Sultan Mahmud, in his eternal and boundless benevolence, grants Muhammad Ali and all his descendants forevermore the title of Khedive, as well as confirm the Territories of Syria, Lebanon, Palestine and Transjordan to be due compensation for the loss of Egyptian fleet in the Greek War of Independence.
The signing of these protocols have ended with a ceremony in which Khedive Muhammad Ali has reaffirmed his loyalty and oath of fealty to Sultan Mahmud, and has been officially ordained as the Khedive.
Several powers in Europe have approved the resolution of the crisis in peace, though some lament that the Ottoman Empire, called the Sick Man of Europe by some, appears to have stabilized their core territories.

The Maratha's Emperor presents Khalsa Raj ruler, Ranjit Sindh, with a dilemma, pick between an awful deal in which Khalsa Raj accepts Maratha's control over Sindh, or the sword. Raja Sindh accepts neither and proposes a trial by combat (ruler vs ruler) between the rulers of both nations, war breaks.
Amid diplomatic calls for the renewal of the Treaty of Amristar of 1809, Rajah Ranjit Singh of Khalsa Raj has claimed both sides of the Indus basin, and the Indus river mouth as a rightful diplomatic and geopolitical interest of the Raj, based on a peculiar interpretation of the Treaty of Amritsar.
Tensions are boiling high in the Khalsa Raj Cabinet after the Economic advisor to the Raj, Nawab Kunwar -supported and sponsored by Dhian Singh-, has decided to press for economic reforms to abandon the Traditional economy of the Khalsa Raj in favour of an Interventionist and Protectionist agenda.
