the Ariciana economy has fallen, although we are a socialist utopia by many respects, we have come to realize how much this has hurt our economy.

our president, Kurt Jenkins, has decided to reach to the international community for aid on any level.

If anyone has anything to offer, then please contact Ariciana


-Minister of Foriegn Afairs

The Armed Repblic of Sino is willing to provide civil and even military aid to Ariciana provided Sino gains some access to Ariciana's minerals and oil.

If such a compromise can be made, Sinoese equipment can be delievered to ensure that uprisings are put down in this case of approaching emergency.


- Gen. N. Q. Zhao
Minister of Foreign Relations

What exactly is the cause of your economic collapse? If this is to be determined then perhaps the Agrigentian International Aid Foundation could not only help in recovery and restoration but also aid in restructuring the economy so such a thing will not occur again.

If we have more information we will be willing to deploy a small group of peace keeper units to help deal with any problem aswell as any medical help required that can be spaired

the problem is our socialist system which needs reform

The Aricianan congress must vote on the oil issue

Military aid (wepons, training, etc.) would also be greatly appriciated

The People's Republic of Spyr would gladly provide you with economic and military advisors, to bring about reforms which could both preserve your socialist values and achieve economic prosperity.

We accept your aid Spyr.

-Minister of Foriegn Afairs

[Delivered to President Kurt Jenkins via members of the Slutbum Wallah Diplomatic Corp]

Dear sir,

It has come to the government's attention that the Slutbum Wallah based megacorporation United Trading Conglomerate has taken an interest in the economic plight of your country. And, rather than offer assistance to your struggling nation, the U.T.C may be planning to acquire as much of your country and government as possible over the next six months.

Sources within high level U.T.C meetings have confirmed that the corporation intends to use a combination of blackmail, bribery, assassination and pure brute stength to gain control of vast natural resources with your countries borders. Sadly, the U.T.C alreasy owns more or less everythin in Slutbum Wallah and we are powerless to hold them back. I hope this warning at least serves some purpose.

Minister Henri Jackworthy
Member of Slutbum Wallah Diplomatic Corp

Ab-shalom and greetings,

In the interest of economic trade and diplomatic relations, Vastiva will gladly aid you in your current problem with the caveat of help now means free trade later.

We are forwarding one billion USD to your government through the UN Treasury to insure it arrives in your governments hands. We also have two regiments of airborne troops standing ready to aid and support your government in the immediate.

We suggest strongly you keep the rights to everything you have in your country.

Namaste,
Raahmid Javani
Grand Vizier,
Humble Servant of His Magnificence, the Sultan of Vastiva

-Sithin, PRS-

An aircraft takes off, bound for Ariciana, carrying several dozen experts in government, economy, and military affairs.

Their hope is to propose socialist-market solutions. State-owned corporations working competitively with each other for profit and village conglomerates establishing collective rural institutions able to compete and adapt for the benefit of their member villagers are just some of the ways an economy can be both 'socialist' and 'market-based'... prosperous and beneficial to all its citizens. Much of what they propose has been implemented successfully in Spyr, as part of the Strainist (free market fasco-socialist) revolution.

Militarily, Spyran officers advise military quality over quantity, with an emphasis on training. They also advise cementing the bond between military, state, and people.... the head of state should hold supreme command, and individual generals should not act on their own to dictate policy. The military should assist in public works, run soup kitchens, and do other moral acts for the people, so that both form a bond of mutual respect and cooperation that can be called upon in times of emergency.

To the High Powers of Slutbum Wallah:

Ariciana does not go with threats, and we will not tollerate it.


To the International Community:

This is why we need aid, if anyone could help us in defending Ariciana against military action against Slutbum Wallah, that would be greatly appriciated


To Vista:

Don't worry, we know how to trade

While we will not directly transfer currency to your nation as it could have an adverse affect on your weakened and unstable economy we will provide aid in the form of food and medical supplies to help in the relief stage of this process. The revitalization of your economy cannot be realized by accepting monetary gifts, as their relative mean to your treasury can affect your own currency adversely as well as by flooding the market with another nations money.

Therefore we suggest that all the money you receive from foreign nations goes immediately to the purchase of essential products, such as grain.

Chairman, Economic Recovery
Agrigentian International Aid Foundation

Hattia notes that socialism isn't the problem, as we would generally be considered extremely prosperous.

We would like to donate various commodities (Such as valuable minerals) which can either be used for export, or for various other things.

If the people of your nation require food, medicine or any other necessity, please contact the Hattian Foreign Aid Commisariat and we will be happy to provide those necessities.

Commisar of Foreign Aid

[Radio transmission to various industrial and commercial sites across Ariciana]

The voice is deep and confident. Well spoken. The kind of voice you want to trust and believe without question. "Greetings, citizens of Ariciana. This is a public information broadcast on the behalf of the United Trading Conglomerate. What's that you ask? We are a benevolent group of individuals dedicated to the preservation of not only your society, but you and your families as well."

"We won't lie to you like you government has done. At this moment, you are in dire risk of total economic collapse. You are rapidly losing vital public services, even the necessities of life. Healthcare, transport, electricity and even water supplies are on the verge of being shut down, perhaps for good. Why is this? What is the source of this travesty? Your government has mismanaged and embezzled, bungled again and again in the direction of public fund to the point of catastrophe. Why, earlier this week your government was reduced to neighbouring contries for the food to survive. Are these the kind of people you can trust with your life?"

"Worry not, good citizens. The U.T.C has answered this plea for help. At this very moment, support from the United Trading Conglomerate is speeding it's way to you straight from Orbital Base Leviathan. Very soon, our compassionate representatives will be amongst you to ensure the delivery of what you, as a people, deserve. You will be safe in our hands."

"The United Trading Conglomerate. We know what you want. We know what you need. We know where you live."

[End transmission]

A wave of twelve thousand U.T.C funded Peacemaker heavy infantry will soon crash land across the nation of Ariciana, deployed via drop pods from space. Their orders are to seize and hold sites of commercial and industrial importance till air support and more powerful reinforcements can arrive to loot the country.

Sorry for the crappy RP, I'm so tired...

Hmm, I thought he was just joking...

Message from the Prime Minister to the leader of Ariciana

I formally request permission to use Hattian military forces defend against incursions from the U.T.C

If you accept, we will have a fleet offshore within 2 days.

Prime Minister Alexei Haton Andropov

International waters

The Battle Fleet under the command of Admiral Kirov recieved their orders. The ships turned around and headed towards Ariciana

And, if you want to use future tech...

Hattian Battlecruiser Indefatiguable

1st Mate Levenkov, currently in command of the ship while the captain was attending a peace conference walked over to the transmitter and delivered an radio transmission to U.T.C forces in Ariciana...

[i]This is 1st Mate Levenkov, of the Battlecruiser Indefatiguable from Hattia. You will pull out now, once we have permission from the government of Ariciana, we will destroy you with precision ion strikes.

Military aid (wepons, training, etc.) would also be greatly appriciated

Very well, Vastiva adds a gift of 100 M-113A3 Armored Fighting Vehicles to our aid package and waits with patience to discern if it and the 1 billion USD would be acceptable as an initial gesture towards diplomacy and trade.

Namaste,
Raahmid Javani
Grand Vizier,
Humble Servant of His Magnificence, the Sultan of Vastiva

The Spyran officers serving as advisors, and their guard forces (in total, maybe ten officers and twenty men), position themselves to assist in defending the government of Ariciana and its key figures, should UTC attempt to target the capital.

We accept the aid from Hattia, Vastiva and Spyr.

Ariciana is very greatful for the willingness of nations to answer the call for help in our turbulent times.


Ariciana has a small military force, but we will use it if the U.T.C. intervienes again.

-Minister of Foriegn Afairs

Today Ariciana released a statement condeming the UTC.


"We will not tollerate threats to our soverginty. Actions are being made and security levels are up aroudn the nation"

-Minister of Internal Affairs

[Telegram transmitted to the Goverment offices of Ariciana]

President Jenkins,

It has been noticed by our delegates within your country that you are attempting to resist what we deem to be reasonable payments for our assistance. Let me assure you that the U.T.C has nothing but it's own best interests at heart, and will stop at nothing to achieve it's goals. If we must watch every item of value in your nation annihilated by 'Precisions Ion Strikes' to do so then so be it.

The forces available to the Conglomerate are vastly superior to whatever resistance you could assemble and any further pleas for international aid shall be met with increased speed and brutality in out strikes. I am told by my Orbital Drop Teams that several Industrial complexes are already under our control and a force of 300 Peacemaker Heavy Infantry are within twenty minutes of striking earth neary your very office.

Need we suggest total surrender?

{Transmitted to Ariciana}

"We see your predicament, and we have decided to aid you.

"This will cost you dearly...

"But we will help whether you wish it or not. Thus, we strongly suggest that you accept our aid... Or we will be forced to make the price much, much heavier.

"We will inform you of the cost once our aid has been rendered. We thank you for your gracious attention, and your swift acceptance of our selfless offer."

~ Shektar, Dominar-God of the Istima Dominion of Angagor

{Transmitted to Slutbum Wallah}

"The Istima Dominion of Angagor offers G3.2billion in exchange for the immediate conditional surrender of Slutbum Wallah.

"If this offer is not accepted or negotiated further, we will be forced to pursue other avenues of conflict resolution."

~ Turot, Glorious 4th Commissar of the Istima Dominion of Angagor

[Transmitted to Angagor]

Commissar Turot,

Whilst we would like to inform you that the government and nation of Slutbum Wallah itself has little interest in the Ariciana situation, we have forwarded your offer to the CEO of the United Trading Conglomerate. As such we are able to inform you that The Morally Bankrupt Utopia of Slutbum Wallah will not be surrendering, conditional or otherwise, on the grounds that we are not at war. However, the independant U.T.C have agreed a total recall of all deployes forces within Ariciana at an increased cost of G3.8 billion.

Forces are ready to withdraw as soon as tranfer of funds is complete.

Might I suggest the mighty IGNORE cannons on the gimps?

Ignore cannon fired

OOC: May I ask the reason, considering I haven't even approached anything remotely like godmodding and even deployed a number of troops small enough for a new nation to defeat easily? I just agreed to pull out when bribed. This was a short, easy conflict RP for a new player not a war of conquest. I even TG'd him telling him they'd give up as soon as a little resistance was shown. You have something like 300,000 armed men in a normal starting nation and you panic and cry when attacked by 12,000 scattered across your countryside?

You know what? Fine. Forget it. Though I don't see your NS career lasting a particularly long time if you can't even take something as basic as this.

"The forces available to the Conglomerate are vastly superior to whatever resistance you could assemble and any further pleas for international aid shall be met with increased speed and brutality in out strikes. I am told by my Orbital Drop Teams that several Industrial complexes are already under our control and a force of 300 Peacemaker Heavy Infantry are within twenty minutes of striking earth neary your very office."

that is godmodding, you cannot do anything to a nation like take some of it hostage without first contacting it ooc, thats not the way it works, ive been playing nationstates since it was fairly new, i know

it was godmodding

It was moronic. Space tech invading a starting nation... and if it had anything to do with realism, the "and I take over several industrial complexes" bit - going through the defenses with the ease of tissue paper? Not even the police shot at you?

On top of that, you drop a ransom demand?

Godmodding.

Next?
