Four Nation Times

The Four Nation Times (Shirakawan: 四族新聞 Shizoku Shinbun, Saramosiri: しそくし む ぶ む Sisoku Simbun, 'Four Nations Newspaper') is a national Chiseian newspaper published in Eito by the Shizoku Media Group and distributed across Chisei and internationally.

The newspaper was founded in 1855 as the Four Nation Daily News (四族日報 Shizoku Nippō). Primarily focused on politics and business and aimed at the upper class, it was published exclusively in Kwabun until 1928; kwabun publishing ceased between 1942 and 1971 due to cost, but resumed in 1972 with a weekly kwabun sister paper, the Four Nation Weekly (四族旬報 Shizoku Junpō). The newspaper is considered to be a over the Eito Report when the Federalist Party is in power. The Four Nation Times has a reputation for high-quality journalism, and has been described as being "one of the world's great titles". The paper had an average daily circulation of 7.7 million in December 2021.

The Times has had a number of news scoops, including the outbreak of the Endwar by rookie reporter Kondo Masumi, described as "the scoop of the century", the 2003 Grand Assembly expenses scandal – which led to a number of high-profile political resignations and for which it was named 2003 Chiseian newspaper of the year – and its undercover investigation into corruption surrounding the 2011 World Expo Games.
