Request for Land; should we allow?

06-11-2003, 15:34
Last night, the country of Trannslyvania made a request to own the Seel Island Territory. The island is already claimed by Brtjam (the only country not in the region). Trannslyvania needs it because the population has skyrocketed in the past few months and they are running out of space for everyone. Brtjam needs Seel Island for the mines, which provide money for the failing economy. Who do you think should get the island?

If you are a warmonger, the nation who wins the war over island.
No other islands to inhabit?

There are about 56 islands in the Fertilian Gulf. The two largest are owned by the Puzzler Islands. The third largest one is Seel Island. The other 53 are very small, and they would never be enough for Trannslyvania (or any country) to use. We were considering splitting the island in half. Brtjam would get the upper half (they use it for the mining), and Trannslyvania would get the bottom half (they'd use it for the land). This seems to be our best plan, because the bottom half of the island remains untouched.
