How do we know that your organization will actually pay in the event that our nation is invaded?

P.S. Plus it gives me a bad consumer rating from the Siapian Business Coalition.

We would like to inquire as to how much complete coverage, entailing protection from disaster, attack, invasion, nuclear bombardment etc. would cost for the Federated Union of Democratic Colonies.

So, for every 10 million people a country has, it's insurance costs $1 billion per year? I assume that the amount one would have to pay increases or decreases due to the yearly population. Thus, every million people are worth $100 million? And for every single person, you would insure for 100$ against national disasters? Correct me if I am wrong.

-The Goverment of The Sythe

I need to know:
Are there presently any terrorists operating within your nation?
Are you located near any major Geologic Fault?
What is your climate like?
Are there any nations who pose a possible threat to you in the immediate future?
do you have WMDs/WTDs/Nuclear Power?

Please finish this questionnaire as soon as possible.

The population is only one of the many factors involved. I check for risk (I won't insure someone whose about to be nuked by every nation in the world) I check for political stability, environment, and anything that could go wrong.

do you have WMDs/WTDs/Nuclear Power?
~James Burgen
Mutual Trust co.

ooc: what is a WTD?

Just wanted to know if what I thought was correct. Sometime in the future, The Sythe may wish to be insured. However, at this time, we feel that it does not need to be. After all, until I start messing around in international politics, I will probably have no ememies to protect against.

Suit yourself, but if you get a quote right now, it'll be less since you have less to worry about. If you try to get insurance when you are in trouble, it'll be expensive, plus I won't raise your premiums until something happens.

A WTD is a Weapon of Total Destruction.

Are there presently any terrorists operating within your nation?
- No

Are you located near any major Geologic Fault?

What is your climate like?
- Varies from Colony to Colony. For the core Colonies, where the capitol is and most people are, it is very rainy. Similar to Seattle, or London.

Are there any nations who pose a possible threat to you in the immediate future?
- Not in the immediate future

do you have WMDs/WTDs/Nuclear Power?

I was wondering if I could send inspectors to inspect your WMD facilities and Nuclear power plants. Also, at your colonies, are their ever instances of flooding? Also, how much would you like your claim to be? (A billion, trillion, quadrillion?)

~James Burgen
Mutual Trust co

Tag - Interesting Concept...national insurance. Maybe I'll apply soon. :)

Is it possible to get $20 trillion in coverage? We would like a quote...

Some background info:

We are heavily active in geology--links in my sig. Over the past few years, (ooc: while I was deprived of internet access over Christmas break ;) ) we have largely replaced our nuclear ICBM arsenal with mega-earthquake inducing ICBMs. We currently have about 1,700, and they could theoretically be detonated underwater, but we have never tried this for obvious reasons.

Evil Woody Thoughts does not have any natural fault lines, though artificial ones exist.

We recently militarized in response to the AMF/RWC scare, but remained neutral. We simply wanted to be able to defend ourselves if we were attacked.

We are currently undergoing climactic changes--we used to be semitropical but now typically get 60 inches of snow a year.

Evil Woody Thoughts has only had one war in its history, a war with Elveshia about eight decades ago. It was RPed on the regional board, so you won't be able to find it. We typically stay neutral in conflicts, though the military on occasion evacuates people about to fall victim to genocide.

Is this information detailed enough for a quote? :D

(Edit: The n00b Exalted States just declared war on me for no apparent reason, but meh.)

We can't cover you from noob attacks-just use the good ol' ignore cannon. You say you want $20 trillion? Its possible. I'm a little concerned about the drmatic climate change, as well as the Earthquake inducing warheads. I'd like to send a team of weapons inspectors to check the security around them. If the security there is okay, then your quote will be $75 billion per year. Let us know if this is satisfactory.

Actually, the n00b annulled their declaration of war, which was quite interesting...and I wouldn't expect to be covered against n00bs anyway. I am more concerned that some imperialist world power will use Evil Woody Thoughts to scratch their war itch, if you know what I mean.

You may send weapons inspectors into Evil Woody Thoughts to account for our earthquake-inducing ICBMs. At this point, they serve the same function as nuclear weapons do for most of NS, and are guarded accordingly. We currently maintain 1,700.

That said, $75 billion per year is satisfactory.

-$50 trillion= $188 billion p. a.
-$100 trillion= $375 billion p. a.

-unlimited= $10 trillion p. a.

you may apply, so long as you realise fusion is a form of nuclear power and tell me about your fusion reactors. (Security? Failsafes? Etc. etc.?)

Ahem... fusion is the direct oposite of Nuclear Reactors. Nuclear is Fission, or dividing the atom. Fusion is combining atoms.

Oh well. I'll treat it as the same.

Security: There are three reactors, one in the bow, one amidships, and one in the stern. Each is guarded by 25 security guards around the clock, at change of watch (15 minutes every three hours) it is guarded by 50 men, to prevent people from slipping in at the change of watch.

Failsafes: If the reactor deviates more than 1% of it's normal output, it will put out a warning. Any more than 5% and it will shut down automaticly.

Fuel: It uses Helium-3, which is mined easily from Luna (The moon)

The reactors are safe in therms that they cannot be forced to blow without knowing exacly what to do, and starting on that path will set off hundreds of alarms.

Are there presently any terrorists operating within your nation?
Only state ran
Are you located near any major Geologic Fault? Only Kamchaka and the Kuril Islands (not heavily populated)
What is your climate like?
Cold...it is Russia
Are there any nations who pose a possible threat to you in the immediate future?None (but we are paranoid)
do you have WMDs/WTDs/Nuclear Power?
Yes/none known of/yes

weapons inspecters are free to investagate


interested in quoted for 100 trillion to unlimited

1. Nope, they're long since stamped out.
2. Not that we know of.
3. Runs from mountainous to plains to rocky coastal cliffs.
4. Possibly. Depends on how deranged they are. If you mean can pose an actual threat to our land, not really. WE can take anything thrown at us.
5. Yes, no comment, and yes. But safe stuff. Pebblebed reactors and all, so no chain explosions or meltdowens can happen.

We'll pay whatever it is. But we want the insurance.

A nuclear reaction is any reaction that involves the nucleus (Hence why its called nuclear) of the atom; fission or fusion, but thats not important.

What about my insurance quote? Sorry, I will answer those questions now.

Are there presently any terrorists operating within your nation?-One Small, Group, Called April 20. They are a Nazi Group, but they are close to eradication.
Are you located near any major Geologic Fault? No Major Faults.
What is your climate like? Mountainous in Parts, Three Rivers, Coastal Along one Side, Plain areas and Desert. On Earth III I own Quebec, Ontario and Newfoundland and Labrador in Canada.
Are there any nations who pose a possible threat to you in the immediate future?Not That I am Aware of.
Do you have WMDs/WTDs/Nuclear Power? WMD's-Yes, WTD's-No, Nuclear Power-Yes.

Are there presently any terrorists operating within your nation?
There are religious zealots in our nation, but they are being eradicated around the clock

Are you located near any major Geologic Fault?
There is one fault line that runs parallel to our northern coastline, about 1000 nautical miles out. It has been quiet recently, and there are numerous private projects to pump water into the fault to attempt to lubricate its movement and prevent dangerous earthquakes.

What is your climate like?
There is water on 3 sides, and the climate is semi-tropical (florida-like) in the north and temperate (New York like) in the south. There are multiple mountain ranges near the center, and two major deserts. Several rivers in the north flood during the wet season, but we have precautions for such events in place, and the nation's major orientation is east-west.

Are there any nations who pose a possible threat to you in the immediate future?
The nation of Miniferg is in a pseudo Cold-war with us, and while no military contact has occured, there is always a risk.

do you have WMDs/WTDs/Nuclear Power?
We have several hundred Peacekeepers and Minutemen, their exact numbers are classified. We have four nuclear plants, and are beginning construction on 2 more. Any and all inspectors are allowed into any and all nuclear sites, however, we do require that you wear exposure suits in all areas of our reprocessing plants.

We are a nation of 646 million. We would like: 10 Trillion dollars, 5 if it's expensive for our nation, as we seem to be high risk. We would, however, also like quotes for 7, 3, and 15 Trillion USD.
