“Sir, are you sure we should be doing this?” Lieutenant John Friggs asked, shuffling through his papers. “Wasting valuable resources?”

“Of course I’m sure!” David Ormus, Dictator of Oridia replied. “Gold is a valuable resource, people will come flocking. And since all we are doing is leasing mines where the resource has been discovered, this useless resource, we shall be making some income from it! At the same time, we shall be appearing friendly and peaceful to the countries that mine here, with our festivities and feasts. Post that now.”

Lt. Friggs nodded, punching the details of the advertisement in to the computer, before hitting submit.

Gold Found Throughout Oridia

Large amounts of gold have been located in Oridian territory, which is of little to no use to the state. For this reason, Oridia is declaring a Gold Rush for all states willing to pay lease on the where the gold is located. The lease rate is a flat rate of 200,000 Oridian Credits per location of gold (please check your local cash bureau for exchange rates).

Visiting nations will be treated to feasts and festivities offered by the Oridian citizens, which include roasted Battletank Bird, a mysterious but delicious delicacy that is unique to this state, and traditional Oridian dances passed down through generations of citizens.

All movements for leases shall be assumed as a friendly gesture towards Oridia, and Oridia shall reply with a pledge of allegiance.

Signed
David Ormus, Dictator of Oridia
