Statement of intentions

The Corporate Coalition is a collaboration between the worlds’ largest known corporations. The purpose of this alliance is to promote and improve the relations between its various members. The Coalition will serve as a body through which members can help each other in research, distribution, defeating competitors and every other aspect of trade. Any corporation is free to join, as long as a majority of the members does not have a problem with this, but only if the corporation is not under governmental control by a nation.
The Corporate Coalition is not a military organisation. It is a body that enables free trade and other economical benefits between members, that might grow into political collaborations in time. Military actions under the Coalition flag are, of course, a possibility since the Coalition will use an enforced embargo when provoked.
The Corporate Coalition will be lead by a board of CEO’s, appointed by each of the individual members. Each member has the right to appoint one CEO, plus two advisors for this board. This board of directors will have support from accountants, market analysts, market strategists and other experts hailing from all member states.

Advantages and possibilities

- Free trade between member companies. This will stimulate both imports and exports between members and thus be beneficial to the economies of all those involved. Tax free zones could enlarge this effect.

- Shared innovation. Helping each other in stead of competing gives members the opportunity to gain significant technological improvements, which may be better than those a single corporation can achieve.

- No price-competition. To prevent competition that consumes a lot of time and money, the members will be able to reach agreements about geographical market separation, for instance agreeing that company A sells product 1 in region Z, while company B sells the same product 1 in region X, to prevent direct competition. Also, members could agree to compete with services instead of prices, which saves a lot of money.

- More political power. Even though the coalition is intended to be an economy-oriented organisation, membership will significantly increase political power for corporations. The gathered power of the corporations in the coalition is something no single company or nation may be able to take lightly. In the most extreme case, embargo may even be placed.

- Free flow of information, persons and goods between members states. This makes transport and distribution cheaper for all members. The main advantage is of course the cost reduction, though this practice may also help in creating more trust between members, making things run more smoothly as time passes by.

- Control. Eventually, the Coalition might find itself in a position where it controls entire markets, is able to dictate prices and might even have a significant say over the worlds’ economy as a whole.

Membership requirements

Any who wish to join the Corporate Coalition, as said above, must be companies that are in no way under direct control of any nation or group of nations whatsoever. Also, potential members must be prepared to join in programs of free trade, no-tax zones, embargo’s, mutual funding and the like. Those who are not prepared to co-operate on such a level, should think twice before joining. Also, each member must appoint a CEO to act as representative in the board of directors.

Current issues for confirmed members

1. Trade deals. If you have something to contribute to the Coalition in the form of discounts, information etc., please say so.



We thank you for your time.

Mister Giles,

I understand you may be grieved about not getting a personal invitation to the coalition. The mocking language you are using above is just the reason for that. All you do is repeat something that was already stated and than laugh about it without presenting any real arguments against those points. Also, I am not aware were you got the idea that "FBCo.plc will continue to kill" me. Frankly, I am not getting killed by it right now, nor have I ever been. To be honest with you, I have never heared of your company. If you do not wish to be part of the Coalition, then don't interfere. You are a disgrace to the professional attitude you are supposed to uphold as a leading figure in a company. I hereby wish you all the best in your future ventures, and I solidly hope you will someday learn to use reason instead of mockery.

Ex te, nihil fit

Signed,

Councelor Delendre
Chairman of the Vortex Corporation High Council

The regional division of Pink Bunny Cola Inc. would like to apply for membership. We agree with all the provisions made and comply with all regulations as set out in above posting.

We believe this is a good opportunity that will allow us to increase profit margins significantly, for PBC cola and Red Rabbtit energy drink, but also for the extensive Pink Bunny merchandise assosiated with it. The board furthermore believes this will be a good opportunity to settle our past business disputes with the Resi Corporation. We can be contacted through our multiregional corporate HQ in Rotterdam, Knootcap.

(OOC: presuming the Pink Bunny King doesnt mind me completely "taking over" his company RPwise, I have TGd him about that.)

And just to scare Resi again and get another furry porn comment... :P

If you drink it, you'll just want to "hop" to the store for more.

Ehr, I don't know if the coalition would be taken very serious if we would be part of the big pink bunny cola banner spamming. I'll put you on the potential list and put it with the issues, though.

The Manticore Corporation has decided to submit their application to join this corporate alliance. The board of directors feels this would be a smart move.

Thank you. We have immediatelly updated your status.

In a move that surprised the global market place, Cyberdyne Systems, quite possibly one of the largest and wealthiest corporations in history, has decided to submit their application as well. We fell that this merger will benefit more than just ourselves.

I would like to make a correction, Santa Barbara, the political area, is not joining, but rather its parent company, the PrattCo Conglomerate or PCC. National holdings include substantial chunks of Santa Barbara, as well as Isla Vista, Moon Units, and Montecito.

It may be what some would consider a moot point, since the political executive of Santa Barbara is the same as the CEO of the PCC. Still, clarity and all that.

Our vote is that we are open to FHG and PBI both to joining. Logos don't essentially matter as long as they are effective and simple. Although we are displeased that the name is going to be CC instead of Betriebkoalition.

Bob Pratt, CEO, Central Sector, PCC

I Wanna Join? Oh and I don't type weird anymore! :D

As for the "rumors" (brought into place by yours truly :wink: ), they were brought into being as retribution for your groundless lawsuit against us. Oh, and to add a little Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt (F.U.D.) around your product. :)

Where the hell did the Latin and Chinese I so painstsakinglytranslated go? And no Anhierach, I dont live in Singapore. I'm a white boy from California, but I talk with the head administrator of the San Guo Online Community every day (I'm the co-administrator... visit us at forums.sanguo-online.com!) who is from Singapore, as well as about a quarter of the members who are also from Singapore.

The FHG and Cyberdyne Systems have been added to the member list. VA Industrial has not replied as of yet and the membership of Pink Bunny Cola seems controversial enough to debate on it somewhat longer.

I also found something nice that could serve as a motto:

Habendum et Tenendum (To Have and Hold)

OOC: its just a thing corps do, and the lawsuit did end in a settlement, so it wasn't THAT groundless.

I will join!

ooc: i hope its ok for me to use a puppet since my actual nation (the volga) isnt a corporation

ooc:- Had a problem with a computer worm virus eirlier :cry: now thats fix I'm here. Nice post The Vortex Corporation :D By the way I'm trying my trade tag for the first time today tell me if it's ok please.

IC:- We agree with the charter and congratulate The Vortex Corporation on the formation of the Corporate Coalition.

We suggest that the following be added to the translation section as its our perfered name for this alliance, its German and reflects our heritage.

Betriebskoalition means Corporate Coalition in german.

Once we finish settling into our system we will be willing to sell refined metals etc from our mining of the asteroid belts in our system to members of the Corporate Coalition exculsively. This will prevent markup of prices by the middle man, although we like the idea raised by our CEO (ooc:- The Emperor..why not? if your Corporation owns a entire system you can call yourself anything :) ) where the Corporate Coalition buys the mined goods & sells them to other nonmembers and splits the profits between member nations.

First post now edited.

The Brotherhood might be interested in signing our national Automobile Manufacturing industry up, as well as our Mining industry, our national Insurance corporation, the Brotherhood's IT industry, our general Manufacturing industry and our national Arms Manufacturing industry. All these industries are not government-owned, although they are heavily influenced and often owned by high-ranking Brotherhood officials. Many industries are heavily subsidized by the government and rank among the best and largest in the world.

IC:

As already done in the case of the FHG, I will allow members to protest against the membership of corporations that are heavily influenced by a government. When no protests are heared, you will be added to the member list. However, I would prefer if you could add just one corporation to the Coalition, for the sake of clarity. If it has a specific name, please tell me.

We suggest that if all those corporations are interested in joining they band together to form a conglobument(sp?) (ooc:- A new nation like B.O.N Corporation or something similar if you don't have one already) and apply as that. (ooc:- Mainly because I see the Brotherhood of Nod as a non buisness nation so this puppet will be your Corporations as an independent corporate group).

BUMP so people can see my new logo submission (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1248681#1248681)!

An Idea for the logo

two hands shaking each other
Corporate Coalition
Bringing corporations together, since 2003

I have a better idea. A globe, encircled by fingers in a giant hand.

Corporate Coalition... uniting the world.

I have a better idea. A globe, encircled by fingers in a giant hand.

Corporate Coalition... uniting the world.

some of us are space nations how about.....a giant hand with galaxies dribiling through the fingers like white sand?

Corporate Coalition....United we stand, together we gain.

Hmm, galaxies are kinda weird looking. How about worlds, one of them earth, the others whatever ones everyone is on? They'd be marble sized.

Well, just make a logo and post it here, and we'll see about it. In the meantime, I think Resi's is a really nice one.

Secondly, I have put Taishu Industries on the memberlist. However I give Taishu this warning: since you are newly created, there is a chance you are a puppet and that a government of another nation influences your organisation. If you are a puppet, please mention so. If you do not mention this, it means you are withholding information from the Coalition, and thus you will enter it under false prejudices (is that good English?).

Thirdly, there is an issue that needs attention from the CC.

Important: Synthetic Diamonds

A nation called DNS is putting synthetic diamonds into production. Thse diamonds are 100% equal to real diamonds and he refuses to put a marker in them so we can regocnize them to be fake. This has three consequences. First, the diamond market will lose all trust from investors and buyers, since nobody knows if his supplier sells real or fake diamonds. Secondly, the diamond price will drop down if large quantities of DNS synthetics enter the markets. Thirdly, the black market will flourish once this new technology is imitated by others.

Several corporations have already warned DNS not to go through with this, Resi more than all others. The Coalition is hereby asked to give him moral or material support in his cause. DNS must agree to put markers in his diamonds and to let Corporate inspectors see to it that this really happens. If not, he can undermine the whole jewelry sector. To read the whole story, I refer to:

http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=60851

Once more, I ask that member companies pledge support to the corporate cause. We, the largest corporate body on this world, are not letting a small timer get away with a billion dollar profit at the cost of our own investments. We hope you do neither.

Yours truly,

Calvin Broadus

Resi, I'm putting that one up as the logo. Nice man.

Yep, it took a couple of tries, but I got it right.

Vortex, do ya think you can host the logo on your own server? Angelfire's pretty bitchy with pic hosting, and I don't want to push it more than I have to.

-What political bit? The whole thing about it is that the CC is all about trade and commerce and protecting our own profits.

-Only Corporations can become members.

The Vortex Corporation check your Telegram, I sent you the URL of the logo.

Vortex Corporation could you indicate next to the corporations that have been confirmed wheather they are space tech or not please.

For the record...The Empire of Senyahs Corporation is space tech.

From the Pink Bunny Cola Inc board
1) We are a corporation and we would like to join.
2) The main stockholder is the Bunny King, but Knootoss and several influential Knootians also are major stockholders. Currently stocks are not open for thrade. (OOC; on that stock market thing)
3) I'd rather not, I have enough puppets as it is already, and I do not own the corp.
4)Core competences: making a great product, and of course merchandising. Besides the product PBC and Red Rabbit energy drink, we have loads of Pink Bunny stuff to sell. (T-shits, etc.)

Knootoss, nothing personal, but:

1. If you don't own the corporation as a RL player, how can you rp it?

2. So the company basicly has nothing more to offer than cola?

To all members!!!Important & Must read!!!

Please post in replies what your 3 most powerfull industries, products and / or services are, so that we can get a picture of our strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.

1) Story behind it. I have members in the board of directors and I am the official ditributor/promotor if the thing. So I have influence.
2) No, it also offers a wide variety of Pink Bunnt merchandise and has an established worldwide network. Not only on NS world but also on other worlds in space, with merchandising shops in major capitals that allow PBC. So we have a network.

3) Red Rabbit energy drink. (also a picture somewhere)

Allright people. I need some comments on the Pink Bunny Membership. Since nobody seems to object to its presence and membership, I'm adding it to the memberlist, until further notice.

yay

Secondly, I have put Taishu Industries on the memberlist. However I give Taishu this warning: since you are newly created, there is a chance you are a puppet and that a government of another nation influences your organisation. If you are a puppet, please mention so. If you do not mention this, it means you are withholding information from the Coalition, and thus you will enter it under false prejudices (is that good English?).


(OOC: Well, you are partly correct. I do have another nation in NS, however, as I've told Resi Corp in a TG, these two nations will remain entirely seperate. In other words, TI will not buy, sell, or trade goods with my regular nation (Nikea), and will otherwise run independently of each other. Interests will not cross, it will not be used to further Nikea in anyway, and TI will not benefit from Nikea at all. I give you my solemn vow as an NS player since February of this.

And also, it's pretenses (sp?), not prejudices, but the rest of it is very good English [I'm assuming you are a non-native speaker?])

I don't need puppets to roleplay as corporations. If I did that I would require hundreds of puppets. Instead I just vary who I am when I'm RPing and keep track. In official things I put a sorta sig too so theres no confusion. Its easy in my case anyway, since the leader of my country IS the CEO of the PCC. All in one, one in all, la la la. 8)

To all members!!!Important & Must read!!!

Please post in replies what your 3 most powerfull industries, products and / or services are, so that we can get a picture of our strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.

ooc:- Basics for now once I get around to finishing the 7 or so post I have planned maybe more.

Ic:- At the moment the main Industry for the Empire of Senyahs Corporation is Mining. Mainly of the asteroid belts in our system which have at least 250,000 years life span at projected level of mining. The main threat to this is unlawful mining by other nations.

Here are some images of our current mining farcilities & vessels.

NGEN is mainly a technology corporation. Our products range from Plasma TVs to Game Consoles. We also offer high speed cable internet service for a mere $35.99 USD a month. We also have a rather large bio-division, which unfornately, we cannot say in public what services our bio-tech division offers.

I made the Brotherhood Trade Corporation as a puppet for CC membership. Unfortunately Nationstates didn't allow more than 22 characters, so Brotherhood Trade Conglomerate wasn't feasible. My main industries, united in this corporation:

United Brotherhood Car Manufacturing Corporation: Heavily subsidized by the government. One of the largest in the world. Most Recent UN Ranking: Unknown! It was too long ago, when I didn't keep track of them yet :cry:

Brotherhood Mining Sector: Set up in 1995, after the Tiberium meteor crashed near the Tiber river in Italy. Has a 60% market share of the Tiberium mining in the world. Most Recent UN Ranking: #5

Brotherhood Insurance Holding: Sells insurances against just about anything. Most Recent UN Ranking: #74

United Brotherhood Manufacturing Industries: Heavily government-subsidized as well. Most Recent UN Ranking: #2

Brotherhood IT Services: Set up by the government in 1997, after successfully hacking the Global Defense Initiative Orbital Defense Matrix, aquiring the Brotherhood the control codes for GDI's Ion Cannon Satellites. More or less privatised in 2018. Most Recent UN Ranking: #92

Brotherhood Arms Manufacturing And Trading Group: Heavy government influcence. The BAMATG produces most of the Brotherhoods weapons, tanks and aircraft. Most Recent UN Ranking: #4

Hey, do you have a Japanese translation site we can go to? The site we use doesn't do Japanese.

English:
Corporate Coalition

Spanish:
La Coalición Corporativa

French:
Coalition de Corporation

German:
Betriebskoalition

Italian:
La Coalizione Corporativa

Dutch:
Bedrijfscoalitie

Portuguese:
Coalizão Incorporada

Norwegian:
Korporativ Coalition

Hmmm the Norwegian version has a catchy tone to it, I think I'll just use that one...

For the Japanese translations, I first went to http://www.worldlingo.com/products_services/worldlingo_translator.html
to get translations into Japanese Kanji. Since I can't read too many of those characters, I went to a different site:
http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/jwb/wwwjdic?1C
to look up the exact English meaning of these kanji, as well as how they are written in Hiragana. Since I know Hiragana, I just converted it to Roman letters.

When you use the second site and input the Kanji (Chinese characters), make sure you click the box that says "(something) using starting Kanji...." or else it won't work properly.

Taishu Industries currently has 2 major subdivisions. These are the two main companies under the umbrella of Taishu Industries (OOC: think of it sort of like a Mitsubishi setup)

Taishu Electric (太守電器)

Taishu Electric is the largest subdivision of the Taishu Corporate Empire. TE is a leader in the production of new powering devices and power sources, with each technological marvel improving the previous. Currently, TE is looking at energy sources which can provide large-scale production of electricity for cities and other needed areas, while remaining environmentally friendly, as well as cost-effective. This also will branch out into the development of smaller-scale sources, such as individual generators for airplanes, automobiles, and military use.

President: Noriko Utada (宇多田典子)

Taishu Audio-Visual (太守オーディオビジュアル)

Taishu Audio-Visual is the fastest growing subdivision of Taishu Industries. TAV provides both commercial audio and visual devices such as televisions, sound systems, camcorders, and other devices, it also has developed the revolutionary MP6 player: an improvement on the MP3 player, it allows for the downloading of over 700 songs at one time on a single player. TAV also provides equipment for large-scale functions, such as large screen displays and sound system equipment.

Well, irregardless of that stupid 'Due Process' bill that got passed while I was ill, my real policies remain those of a Corporate Police State. So, can I join the alliance?

BTW, maybe we can make a Corporate Coalition region?

Corporate Islands.

Corporate Islands.

Thanks, moving Brotherhood Trade Corp. now.

I can hear Resi saying "There goes the neighborhood."

Roania, thanks for your application. Since nobody seems to have objections, I will put you on the member list. After some research and asking around, you seem like a reliable partner. Welcome to da club.

OOC: The CC is a completely economic entity indeed. My request for assistance is not to be viewed as an official issue or command or anyhing of that nature. It is just a way to let anybody who's interested know what is going on.

Thanks. Now, a little about my nation... The Roanians are excellent bio-technicians, inventing deadly diseases and cure-alls very easily. Sadly, the cures have... unexpected side effects (Our first attempt at a cure for cancer turned the test subject into a rabbit). Our port is open to all, because we have no ships of our own. ((Every Roanian is petrified of the sea. Almost all 'shipping' is done via cargo plane)). We train people to become mentats, and our markets are open to all who have something to buy or sell.

Our language is German. Our motto is 'Nil Moritum Sans Lucre' and our offer is a 50% discount on any bioweapons or mentat training for member nations.

One second... I'll set up a nation to be a corporation...

Here it is. Remove Roania from the list and replace it with this nation.

Motto: War is very good for business.

Allright Roania, I've edited the name and trade offer. Nice of you to set up a separate puppet for the CC. Now, I have a business proposition for you. Please check your telegrams.

Taishu Electric offers all members of the Corporate Coalition a 25% discount on purchases, including parts and production rights.

Taishu Audio-Visual offers a free plasma flat screen television to the CEOs of all members of the Corporate Coalition.

We come here on behalf the Federal Bussines Combine, a massive private conglomerate that englobes the most powerfull consortiums and megacorporations of the Federation of Technocratic Republics: Zicodia Bioteks, Elanor & Bosh Nanostructures, Universal Transports, Dal Fenathos Industrial Tools and Ilaroth Energetics.

The Combine is completely private-held, meaning this that the federal government has no direct power over us. Our various holdings represent nearly the 40% of all the economical properties and transactions currently being held within the FTR, and this amount expands at a steady rate.

However, in the search of expanding our bussines horizons, we have decided to aply for membership of the Corporate Coalition.
If it's members see it fit, that would be, of course.

Taishu, your trade offer is greatly appreciated and will be added to the list.

FTR, I'm putting the company on the memberlist. Members have 3 RL days to make any objections. After 3 days, the membership becomes permanent.

First of all, not coming to a solution is very uncommon. There are many means in which a cartel can come to a solution, such as price agreements, service agreements, geographical specialisation etc.

Personnaly, I would resolve the dispute by creating a joint venture in which both members produce the same service or product, so that they can make profit without being in each others way.

Liu, you are added to the member list. Thank you for joining us, and we also commend you on your translations.

CEO Kane, as for CACE, we need not worry. If they do not want to make a profit, that is their problem. While they try to make their socialist ideas work, we will continue to make profits. In the end, we'll see what works best, though I am fairly convinced of the outcome. We need not seek active conflict with them. As you have pointed out yourself earlier, this is an economical institution, not a political one. However, the Board thanks you for your perception and vigilance. We will watch CACE closely from now on.

The Kali Corporation wishes to join, we spealize in advanced weapons tech and warmachines.

You are free to join and I added you to the list. However, for you the same rules apply: If anybody has any objections with you joining, your application will first be discussed in conference and could be withdrawn (though I do not think that will happen).

Vortex Corporation:

Interesting & diplomatic. However- and we do not wish to belabor the point- compromise is not always a fair solution. For instance if Corporation A has an established market presence, then Corporation B enters these same markets with very similar products at incrementally lower prices, is compromise really an equitable solution? Would it not be fair for Corporation B to cease & desist in its practices or face retaliation by Corporation A?

I.M. Eivle
Ministry of Trade

To minister Eivle:

It would not be necessary for Corporation B to withdraw and neither would it be the best option. If B is in a state of concentric diversification, it will bring significant technological knowledge from a related industry or market to this newer market, possibly creating revolutionary new designs or at least a chance for reengineering or restructuring of traditional methods on this new market. Experience learns us that new entries often bring fresh ideas to a new market.

But we understand your point. If the market was previously a monopoly were company A could get high profits without too much investments, B could certainly be seen as a threat or intruder, and A may not wish to join hands with B. In that case geographic specialisation would be the best option. A would simply agree with B that they would serve different geographical areas, too avoid conflicting interests. This, of course is only a temporary solution.

In the end, one will always win. This will be the strongest or most agile among the competitors. And that is one of the reasons why the CC exist. Competition is always necessary to stimulate innovation and flexibility. However, in competition the CC can keep an eye on things to prevent firms from going broke, illegal methods to be used etc. With the large network that the CC forms (20 members), there is always a way to "employ" one of the competing parties in a totally different market with the right amount of investments and research. And as for enetering a market where another member already resides: that would not be smart. Because of the CC membership, B can already get the product from A against discount price, and he knows he will hurt both himself and A by entering that market.

Well, Roania Pharmaceuticals has bought out the Bene Tlielax, and the Suboid manufacturers. I think, however, before I sell their new innovations on the market, I'll find our your response.

The Suboid!

Unimaginative workers, genetically manipulated to complete any and every task without complaint. Willing to work long hours with little or no pay, provided their basic needs are cared for.

The Ghola

Want to return your dead loved ones to true life? The Bene Tlielax can do so! With a small scrap of your loved one's skin, they can use their Axolotyl tanks to restore them to life. Then, using secret techniques, they age them to the level you desire, and then restore their memory! Buy now!


Director Bruno Von Klyke

Oops.

Why oops? Isn't that a good thing?

Wrong country. Well, what do you think?

OOC: Ah, I'll probably won't post much with the Brotherhood Trade Corp. either. But you made some spelling errors: It's Bene Tleilax and Axolotl.

OOC: Thanks. I'll fix that. You see, militarily my nation is Star Wars, but the politics and social structure is very Dunish. We're even working on the Melange... though no amal. Amal bad.

Edit: I would fix it, but I can't sign in as Pharmaceuticals right now.

I think the Suboid has a lot of potential for me and many others. It would be smart to set up a separate thread for it. Also, might I point out that the Corporation is using the so called GenPad for some time now? They are Power Generator Pads that allow the bearer to enhance his corporal features. For instance, EGPs for better eyesight, AGPs for more powerful arms etc.

If you equipped Suboids with them, everybody could purchase his own little Hulk to do the dirty work. Might you be interested in setting up a joint venture?

For some time now, The Vortex Corporation has been deploying GenPads for our Black Wolf special forces. GenPads are complicated constructions, meant to increase the performance of any individual. Genpads are hooked up to a part of the human body, increasing its performance drasticly. A GenPad is basiscy a combination between a piece of equipment and an extra bodypart. The equipment temporarily becomes part of the human body, so to say. Therefore, the equipment can be handled more efficiently than normal items. So far, several GenPads exist, one for every sense except taste plus other variants for arms, legs and spine.

The Suboid had it's own thread. I was threatened with nasty death by Menelmacar and Melkor. From now on, unless I'm sure of protection, no more of that.

Didn't know that. Well, then how about invading the sex industry with Gholas?

Let's go back to the joint venture idea.


OOC: A nation as old as yours must have some dead people you want back, no? I was actually targetting the Gholas at NOD and Resi, as both their leaders have lost someone.

ooc:- Gathered that...wouldn't use them in homes..too dangerous as people tend to let maintenance slide. Go in together as power companies and supply cities/nations with cheap power from our fusion power stations? Then we can have stores selling merchandise with the power company logo & sell your products as the company reconmended electrical items. Also we could open a "power station" to quickly recharge electric cars & bikes just like petrol stations of today & hence the logo could be along the lines of "<insert name> a clean green company for your daily needs!" what you think? What to go with that idea?

East Coast Corporation is added member list. Like always, others have 3 days to make objections and then it will be re-evaluated.

The nation of Trixia would like to join this coalition, we are very specilised in the art of stone masoning, a craft long forgotton by most nations, and are a leading nation in the field of toaster construction.

Roania Pharmaceuticals is obviously a puppet. Same for the Brotherhood Trade Corp, though I'm not sure which brotherhood runs it (TBO Kane, or TBO NOD).

Add genetic manipulation somewhere there under the things we can do. And I offer Roan City as the HQ of the CC senate.

Trixia, we are happy to see you interested in this Coalition. Is your nation a true corporation or is it a government?

Roania, for the HQ I was more thinking about a new place, an island or something.

Roania is an island. A large island, surrounded by impenatrable cliffs. But, if that's a problem, then how about New Roan, on Mars?

I mean neutral territory, owned by the CC. That way, wars won't bother us. For example: if you go to war and our HQ gets obliterated, that gives problems, since members will join the war, more drama blahblah big mess etc.

So I personnaly suggest finding and occupying a neutral island.

Bruno: Neutral... well, there is the Isle of the Dead, 15 miles off the coast of Roania, and since Roanians don't have an aquatic fleet for reasons I explained earlier, it's completely neutral. The only problem is you'd have to buil a helipad, because damned if I'm getting on a boat near the sea.

Good afternoon. One question now becomes very important: How much influence does the Trixian government have in Trixia industries? For instance, The Brotherhood owns 25% of Brotherhood Trade Corp, but he has sold 49% of all stock to the CC, so that too much government involvement can be avoided. It would be usefull if you stated how much % of stock is owned by national governments.

Bruno: Should have put my own down. The Government of Roania owns 25% of Roania Pharmaceuticals stock. But, they don't have any affect on us. So long as we don't insult them. And I checked with my college buddy Eddy. The Isles of the Dead are yours. His exact words were "What? Are you suggesting I would go there? Are you mad? I don't want them!" The only problem I can think of is the name.

Ah well that would be a very simple question to answer!

The government owns a mere 10% of Trixia Industries, and the only reason for that is that we make things for the government, and they wanted to own the 'public' part of our industry, so they own the roads construction etc, but as i say only 10%

Just to make thing clear

Currently, we need to discuss 2 things. First of all: those darn terrorists. We don't need more groups running around and suicide bombing corporate assets. Secondly: the VA Industrial proposal.

The HQ issue can wait, since the current communications seem to work just fine.

I recomend we enforce a military blockade.

I can't participate in such a thing. I'm using 100% of my forces to counter an upcoming invasion from Arani (but you knew that). We do support the initiative, though.

Well we'll just have to beef up security, and distribute badges etc.. if you don't pass the checks you don't get in.

That is what The Trix Corporation will be initiating as from now.

VA Industrial proposal...if I'm not affect then from the time its formalized onwards *Yes*

The Terrorists try redirecting their ideals and pointing them at someone we don't like. I don't think military action is the solution (ooc:- look at USA) maybe we can try & find out why they hate us first.

Or, I could virus bomb them back into the Stone Age. Whichever works.

We think a more subtle approach may have more results:

1. Temptation. Seek out the leaders and preachers of this new movement. Offer them riches as hey have never seen before. Houses, women, cars, luxuous meals. No more digging around in trenches, no more dirt, no more hiding. Not every man can be bought, but most of them can.

2. Infiltration. We need men and women on the inside. Let them infiltrate the terrorists. Our intelligence services have an almost endless amount of resources and funding, simply because of our wealth. It should be easy to sabotage them from the inside.

3. Political pressure. Let's see how the guy that started the topic reacts if all imports to his country are prevented: economical embargo.

I like it. But someone needs to organise it. I'll provide the infiltrators (Tleixalu Face-Dancers, of course). Someone else needs to set up a blockade and begin bribing.

Just post we're buying up all his imports and ruining the market for his exports by selling similar goods at lower rates.

Maybe we can stir up rebellion in his country so they bomb themselves first.

Very well then.

I propose we consider an earth-based, secure location for the CCHQ. I propose we consider a purpose-built international city on the main island (1) of the island chain off the east coast of Santa Barbara. The territory will be zoned neutral and adminstered by the Corporate Coaliton as we best see fit. I can personally think of no safer place, isolated and comparitively neutral.

"Bob", says Calvin over the phone "That's a mighty good idea. A completely neutral haven for trade always creates a profitable future. Just look at our own Hermes facility. Suggest this to the Board, and you have my vote."

"I agree on this location. Furthermore, I donate 15 Banshee Attack Fighters to the island for defense."

"I also agree to this location, and I would also like to offer several hundred Sercurity Service officers for this island's defense."
-CEO Zhou

If you want an NS earth bound location, ok then all I ask is a spaceport for shuttles carring representitives.

The security will be welcomed and appreciated. We must however try not to turn the HQ into a military outpost. It is my feeling that the Santa Barbarian military forces, since they already cover the strategic defense of Santa Barbarian islands, will provide an already in-place and adequate security for the general location.

No current facilities exist on the island for such a project. What we need most then is an opportunity for every Corporate Coalition member to offer services in the design, construction, maintanance, and adminstration of the CCHQ. The small town of Winchester Canyon, not marked on the map for its small size, is in the center of the island and has the most room for expansion. Thus what we will need to do is, in a coordinated and efficient manner, build this land up to suite our very specific needs out of a CCHQ.

Since the locations primary function will be to serve as meeting grounds for our delegates, with a strong secondary function as an international trade zone; we will be looking for luxuries amenable to the refined tastes of the Board of CEOs, combined with the pragmaticism of any operational and successful city business district.

So far, we've determined a need for at least a starport. Likely, a large new airport. A central location for the actual business meetings of the CCHQ. A business district. Naturally, we will have to attract population to the island, but that should be no problem with the amount of jobs all this will create, and the combined marketing talents of all our corporations. Anything else?

Bob Pratt, CEO

We offer 500,000 tons of Gold Vein Black Marble mined in the Alpha Asteroid Belt (its finds like this that makes us think there used to be a planet there.) and we will be able to shift it within 6 months to the designated location.

I'll ease up, it's just part of Roania's national character. Sorry. I agree with the base up there, and second a Warp and Chaos shield generator for defense.

The Brotherhood would like to help building the headquarters. Our military construction specialists can build huge bunkers beneath the islands, both to save space and for added security.

Bruno: And no one is to tell the terrorists about this base. Now, what are we to call it, and what are we to do about this Samustan problem?

I think CCHQ is a perfect name. We are a corporate coalition, not an artistic one :)

If Samustan tries anything funny, retaliate either militarily or economically.

I like it. And the economic part has begun...

We will donate 10.000 kilos of the purest marble, 1000 tons of silver to add to the magnificence of the CCHQ. Plus, we offer free terraforming services to change the climate on the island, turning it into a comfortable tropical paradise.

One of our larger intra-businesses (in an attempt to suck up) has sold us top quality leather and timber for office use at an 80% discount, which we in turn will donate to construction.

Finally, we offer a full compagny of 16 Heavy Hoverdynes, plus a support force of 4 Anti Air Hoverdynes and 4 Drone Carriers to the HQ's defence forces.

Construction materials so far:

10 tons of marble
1000 tons of silver
500,000 tons of Gold Vein Black Marble [OOC: What is this?]
Leather, timber
1,000,000 tons of foamed steel
250,000 tons of foamed titanium

More materials, such as concrete, and more metal, will be useful.

Projects in development/awaiting contractors:
Underground bunker system. Prime contractor: Brotherhood of Nod.
-This will be most helpful in the unlikely event someone attempts to use orbital artillery on us. It won't last forever on its own, but it will give us enough time for emergencies. Enough time to completely obliterate said ortillery, anyway.
-I suggest that the Brotherhood contractors cooperate and consult with Santa Barbarian engineers for maximum efficiency, since it is likely this complex will be garrisoned by PCC military a good portion of the time.

Starport.
-This will be a more specialized facility to include orbital shuttles hangars, etc.

Airport. Prime contractor: Cathedral Capital (PCC)
-Since there exists an airport already, it makes more sense to enlarge and improve it ourselves.

Central Plaza.
-This will be an area zoned for large structures to hold field offices for all our corporations. As well as banks, etc.

CCHQ.
-This will be some sort of large structure where official CC communications and affairs can be handled.

Entertainment Complex
-Just what it says. Can include theatres, restaraunts, fountains, what have you. As long as it contributes to the overall appeal of the city.

Power. Contractor: Groovelico Fashion Electric (PCC)
-Will be handled by the PCC unless anyone has objections. We plan to use magnetic-confinement fusion electric generators.

Transportation Network
-An efficient, expansive, expandable, and safe transportation grid for the city, including conventional roads or magnetic guideways. Most people tend to use magrail or bicycles in Santa Barbarian cities.

Residential District
-Kako Habitat Construction, PCC, has offered to construct residential complexes for permanent employees.

Dedicated defense forces include so far:

Vortex Corporation
16 Heavy Hoverdynes
4 Anti Air Hoverdynes
4 Drone Carriers

Brotherhood of Nod
15 Banshee Attack Fighters

Roania
Warp and Chaos Field Generator [OOC: What is this?]

NGEN Corp
Several hundred Security Service agents

PCC
4 Divisions PCCITDO-SOTG (PrattCo Conglomerate Integrated Theatre Defense Organisation- Special Operations Theatre Group)
(-Numbers and equipment classified-)

On defense: we don't require too many more dedicated forces. In fact, we feel that a minimum of permanent defense forces attached will help make the site more commercially and residentially pleasing. There are hundreds of PCC military bases within range of Winchester Canyon, and the waters are patrolled by NOTG ships, submarines, and aircraft.

Bob Pratt, CEO
Central Sector
PCC

Please add the following to the list:

10.000 tons of concrete for construction

150 Heavy Marines for defence

We would also like to become the contractor for the transportation system, using magnetic rails. This seems an efficient choice to us, since we have much more experience with magnetic forces than other nations, because of our emphasis on hoverdyne production and development.
Some examples of hover-based systems we deploy are contained in the following pictures.

Dear members. The nation of Ertomia has commenced with the selling of slaves. We see this as a potential threat for the CC. First of all, this practice is ethically wrong. Secondly, it will increase the feelings of hate left-winged nations feel towards capitalists, which could reflect on organizations such as ours. Thirdly, Ertomia is not part of the CC. Therefore, it would be wise to not grant him a source of income and a market where we ourselves are not active. After all, this could give him a significant power base in the future.

Therefore, I ask all read this document:
http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=64443

Yours truly,

CEO Calvin Broadus, VTX representative, CC Board of Directors

Bruno: Suboids are not slaves. So every one stop looking at me like that... however, we could undercut his prices using them. Our suboids have been carefully modified to be better than any slave could hope.

Bruno: Suboids are not slaves. So every one stop looking at me like that... however, we could undercut his prices using them. Our suboids have been carefully modified to be better than any slave could hope.

True. They are workers, and we could sell them as say...freelance muscle? Any employer can use them if he gives them a roof to sleep under, food, and minimum wage, plus of course a certain bonus for yourself. Offering them at a lower rate then Estromia (or whatever) would be quite effective. (so please post in that thread)

I propose we "talk" with this nations "allies" and ask them to tell their "ally" to cease the slave trade, if they refuse I suggest that we widen the embargo to include them.

allies? What allies? Anyone we should be scared of?

allies? What allies? Anyone we should be scared of?

Belem & Dark Terror

I'll talk to Belem. He kinda likes us. Dark Terror won't do anything. Too many people are waiting for him to do something evil and then destroy him! I heard that Melkor's even gotten sick of him.


((I'm now no longer allied to Melkor Unchained. Tor Yvresse's seen to that. And it's all his fault! He couldn't spare the men to protect me, but I was protecting him!))

Bump...that dark terror is getting frisky

I disagree that this slave trade is any kind of threat to us. Regarding power it seems highly unlikely that slave trade could ever prove profitable enough to give them a power base broad enough to challenge the PCC, let alone the whole Corporate Coalition. Slave trade tends to be a sign of weakness, much like having a huge, untrained army of militia men shows true desperation in defense.

Moreover I don't think the CC ought to be taking it upon ourselves to create a better image for Capitalism. Because, the worse capitalism seems, the more idiots will take up communism and cease to be competitive, and the more consumers demand us evil capitalists help them when their commie bread lines get too long.

Bob Pratt, CEO


PS
Calvin, those magrails look beautiful. Consider yourself the transportation contractor. Will the rails be equipped for a more personal transport system, and/or will there be conventional systems or will it be efficient enough to replace things like roads?

OOC: I cant see the picture of that spaceport. But ah, sure, Roania can build the spaceport.

Excellent. Construction will begin immediately.

((With Suboid aid, it will take 3 RL days))

Roania do you need raw materials for the space port?

Titanium. Plazma bonding agents. Ion. We could produce them ourselves, but our mines were severely damaged in the war.

Hmmm I can supply Titanium & Iron. Do you have space capabilities? I'll send a ore transport with them. (Don't know how much yet...gotta figure it out :oops: )

If I know how to make a space port, I'm a space nation. :roll: :wink:

The Magrail works both with trains and individual pods, so it theoretically can replace roads, though that will increase expected construction time by a few months.

Any new issues lately for the Corporate Coalition?

Resi should be back soon.

There are some interesting things going on.

First of all, there seems to be quite the commotion about whaling. We have noticed that small wars are starting to break out over this market, combined with a sudden uprise in the popularity of GreanPeace.

Secondly, the nation of California and Alaska has founded a large company, the Trix Corporation, that specialises in aircraft manufacturing. We have of course invited them to take a look at the CC.

Thirdly, I think we need a large rp to get more realism in the CC.

Something against CACE? And I have to get off soon. I delegate my vote to Vortex.

We would like to petition for membership.

And what is it you do?

Of course. Thank you for choosing our organization (hmpff, that sounds like we're an airline). Anyway, we need the following info:

1. What are your 3 primary products and / or services?
2. Are their any governments with influence in your corporation, e.g. stock held by other nations?
3. Is there anything such as a special trade deal you can offer members in exchange for membership?

Also, if you are admitted, you must know that members have 3 days in RT to object to your application. If there are any serious objections, your case will be reviewed after three days.
