I would like to congratulate my brothers and sisters on the development of their nations to this point. With this declaration I am putting our nation on the map, so to speak. We are a small nation at the moment, with forward thinking politics. We are extremely liberal and the rule of law is our primary concern. We value our system of education and social reform and advancement is our ultimate goal.
Any who wish to tour our nation are welcome to do so. We also openly invite trade negotiation and diplomatic alliances. We have no automatic embargo on any nation with whose political ideologies we disagree. This is our attempt to spread some of our liberal thinking and policies by way of contact with outside nations, whether they be oppressed as a people or not.
I thoroughly hope each nation finds it within themselves to welcome us, for we are all siblings in this world. War hurts us all, there are no victors.
Peace be upon you, a representative of the Free Lands of Interested Peoples.

Define 'liberal', please.

I'm sure we would all love to learn of it. Welcome to the brotherhood of independant nations.

By liberal i mean we have social and political reforms in mind that favour progress in society. We support a system of tolerance and education which aims to develop general cultural interests and intellectual ability.
We advocate individual freedom and the ability of the individual to decide his way in life. We do not dictate to our populace unless a situation is deemed serious enough to do so. The only time we intervene in the private lives of our citizens is where the rights of other citizens are at stake. This is much in line with Alan Gewirth's theory of the Principle of Generic Consistency.
