---Lorkhan News Network---

Citizens in the streets all over Lorkhan celebrated today after hearing that the Imperial Army of Lorkhan moved in and seized the territory of Uriel which rightfully belongs to the fatherland. Conflict was minimum, in fact most of the Uriel Royal Guard came to us with white flags and no weapons. By the time we reached the great house of Uriel the former leaders were long gone, possibly seeking haven in another territory.

This is a great boost of morale for our people, and shows that our great leader Emperor Kain keeps to his promise of the re-unification of our great empire.

For a better understanding of Lorkhan and the surrounding territories we ask you to visit the following webpage;

*tag* Might get involved if you are accepting other entries. Might not tho...

We demand an explination. These actions are unjust. If you don't pull out I'll boost my moral by leveling you.

The reasoning was explained in the part about the fatherland. Uriel once belonged to Lorkhan, and the current leader decided to improve national pride and moral by reclaiming it. Perfectly understandable.

Not understandable at all. The people of Uriel were independent and then just to boost morale they were taken over. They must have had reeasons for seeking independence, like oh lets say...opression! I still demand he remove his troops.

Depends how it was given its independence in the first place. And whether the Uriel citizens want to rejoin....

How do you know they sought independence? Maybe Lorkhan was conquered by another nation and later liberated most of itself, followed by Uriel and the other nearby nations. Or maybe Uriel was signed over to a superior force to appease them, and Uriel fought for freedom. Also, I doubt the white flag greeting would have been given to former opressers.

I quote his website:

"Lorkhan is surrounded by the House ruled states that were once part with the father land. The Houses consist of Uriel, Tul, Indoshia, Jull, Airtsua, Aden, and Sulas."

as always I stay uninvolved. :D my nation is very much unified unlike the real usa which is rather divided

what about more powerful opressers? Unless Uriel sought to be conquered and still deman the removal.

I must agree with Largent. if the people Uriel were independent then they should have stayed that way and if there is any war i will take the side of Largent

News Channel 9 of Samotopia

Tom:Well citizens of Samotopia, The Leader Sam-O has just pleged our small army to Largent if there is a war against Lorkhan.

Diane:Well that means we will all die.

Tom: yes well we will do it with the best leader Samotopia has ever seen.

Diane: Hes the only leader.

Tom: Well yes but hes still the best we have had.

"For centuries the nation was under rule by different states and warlords, breaking the once proud nation into seperate regions all under rule by different governing monarchys. Salvation did not come until 1835, and it came in the form of a noble from the House of Lorkhan. He claimed that he was infact an incarnate of the old emperor Kain, and would lead our nation to unity and peace. Through force and diplomacy the second carnation of Kain brought the city states together. Our nation was finally one under one rule, and Kain dubbed the nation Lorkhan after his ruling house.

Unity lasted for over one hundred years and two succesors to Kain's throne, each replacing their house name with the name of the Holy Lord that led Lorkhan to prosperity. The noble house of Akarthia however had devilish plots to bring destruction to Lorkhan. With the help of outside interfernce, land grabs, and other noble families that wanted their own government, Akarthia overthrew the Emperor and installed their own form of brutal dictatorship. As was promised, the Akarthian nobles gave the land back to the greedy ruling houses, spliting the land into different regions once again.

Brutal Akarthian rule opressed the region of Lorkhan for more than half a century, but a shining beacon of light from the Royal Army of Lorkhan rebelled against the Arkathian prince. The three year war between the Arkathian party and the Sons of Kain resitance group took many lives, but in the end our prestigious leader overthrew the Arkathian house.

Now the nation is once again under the guidance of a great leader, and our country shall be united once again. " -A Call To Arms: Lorkhan's Tale


Uriel and the other surrounding areas all belong to the fatherland of Lorkhan. It is because of petty squabbling between the former regimes that these nations were lost. Uriel was only the first step to reunification, and we will continue to take back what rightfully belongs to this nation. The peoples deserve that right. They deserve the right to wave the flag of their homeland, the right to their freedoms as citizens of Lorkhan.

If you do intend to go to war with us, know that we will show no quarter to you and your people. Also know that the nation of Lorkhan has the backing of the A.I.S in this affair, and such nations as the R.N.I, MMI, and other such nations. To go to war with Lorkhan is to seal your doom. Take head to these warnings.

"The matters involving Lorkhan and its breakaway regions are purely an internal matter for the Republic of Lorkhan, a valued and trusted member of the Alliance of Independent States (A.I.S.) Outside intervention without the consent of Lorkhan would be seen as an act of aggression against a member state of the Alliance. As such, all 33 A.I.S. Nations are sworn to defend her sovereignty, and her right to unify what was once violently, wrongly, and unjustly torn apart.

As a precaution, Inyurface hereby announces it is dispatching 2 complete carrier battle groups to the region, along with an "adequate" amphibious assault force. The amphibious assault force will remian at sea until which time as our brother Lorkhan requests a landing. Air/missile defense, both ground based and aircraft, are prepared to tranfer to our ally's land as well, again, immediately upon Lorkhan's request. Rapid deployment units are on alert status as well.

The Rogue Nation of Inyurface calls upon its brothers, MMI, Lex Terrea, Slytherin States, KMA, USLUG, Shutdafup, Josh Dollins, 3p0x1 and all of our brothers-in-arms, to come to the aid of our friend and ally!

Aggression toward the A.I.S. will not be tolorated. This is an internal matter for Lorkhan and Lorkhan alone. May they soon have the entire country reunited under one flag!"

The Lorkhan Stormtrooper Force has been dispatched and is currently on high alert. Our three tank divisions have been sent to the boarders along with four divisions of the Republican Armed Forces. ANY military advances on our nation will be seen as an act of aggression. The nation of Lorkhan only wishes for peace through unity, and our people will fight and die until the day when our nation is whole under Lorkhan's flag once again.

All nations with the intent to halt the progress of unity, take this as a warning: We will not tolerate outside intervention, and any actions with the intent to do so will be met by force from the A.I.S.

(OOC: Think we should take this to the Internation Incident Board??)

OOC: I didnt even realize it wasn't. Just went from your link and didnt bother to read it. Yeh, I think Internation Incident Board would be more appropriate, plus it would get more notice.

(OOC: I did it here because I didn't think it would be considered an international incident, but after I posted it I realized it would've been better. I don't know how to move it though. I'll probably just take all the messages that have already been posted and move it, or we can try and get a mod to move it.)

First and foremost, this is an INTERNAL MATTER for Lorkham. REPEAT .... this is and INTERNAL MATTER FOR LORKHAM.

Please, let us be clear on this, any intervention by any other country will be considered as an act of aggression against Lorkham, as well as an act of aggression against the Alliance of Independent States of approximately 10 billion citizens. We have many allies and can call upon billions more to our defense.

Depends how it was given its independence in the first place. And whether the Uriel citizens want to rejoin....

The Uriel citizens are ecstatic upon their reunion with Lorkham. This is a final and ultimate reunion of the utmost proportions. Finally, we may have a reunion similar to the East/West Germanic union at the falling of the Berlin wall!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We demand an explination. These actions are unjust. If you don't pull out I'll boost my moral by leveling you.

This is an inevitable reuniion. Lorkham should be commended for final reunion of the peoples of their region. This will establish peace throughout the region and hopefully we all will formulate long-lasting relations benefiting all of our countries!!!!!!!!!!!!
