The removal of Tokyo's office and the tensions with Japan
The newspaper has a strong relation with Japan and even establish their main office in Tokyo in July 2020. At the same moment, civil war broke out in Japan and the redaction of TWP is divided. Blurryface and Yllalen remains loyal to Japan and its empress while some other members of the redaction such as Lord__Troll supports the Date clan. In september 2020, Japan is re-united under the control of KawadaJP, leader of the Date clan, and the office of Tokyo is removed and the stuff is token. The Winchester Post then starts a crusade against the new japanese empire and denounces its censorship.
In October 2020, The Winchester Post moves its headquarters in New York City and opens a second office in Pyonyang, Korea.
Period of inactivity and internal changes
The edition of the 9th September 2020 will be the last newspaper published by the Winchester Post in 2020. The end of 2020 and the first months of 2021 is a period of inactivity for the newspaper. This leads to a bunch of internal changes in the redaction in February 2021.
