[X] Breaking news! Japan sends man to the moon! (You rolled an 11)
The world watched with bated breath as the probe is detached from the spaceship and slowly descends onto the lunar surface. It eventually lands with no problems in an eruptive control room, with the Astronauts quickly descending from the probe and treading down the stairs. The area is quickly being called Kaguya's landing by members of the press, and the Astronaut's subsequent action of planting the Japanese flag, gathering soul and rock samples, as well as saluting to the camera they quickly set up is quickly making world history.
This is Japan's moment, may the Empire prosper for a thousand years more!
[X] Limited public resistance to floating the JPY, but there are still some grumblings (You rolled a 9)
It's still fundamentally a controversial move. Basing the global reserve currency on essentially nothing is such an unexpected move, and as such the public perception of this sudden decision is all over the place. Some more learned Japanese citizens supported the move, while ones without a college degree are mostly confused, with some publicly opposing the decision. Nonetheless, there still isn't sufficient enough resistance and so the measure to float the Japanese Yen went through.
OOC: Sorry if it's a bit short, the only ones that are rollable are these 2 anyway.
