New Nation Looks for Allies

Manhattan Prime
27-03-2005, 17:14
The recently founded nation of Manhattan Prime has decided that it would benefit us at this point to join the international stage and seek out allies for our mutual benefit.

We are a country of 20 million people, with a democratic-socialist government and a great commitment to Civil Rights. We have recently been admitted to the United Nations and the UN has rated our county as follows:

Civil Rights – Excellent
Economy – Weak
Political Freedoms - Good

We’re looking for like-minded nations that would be interesting in a diplomatic exchange, trade agreement or alliance, or possibly a region of allies to join.

Please direct all replies to:

Dr Carl Owens
Minister for Foreign Relations
Imperial Colony of Manhattan Prime

Sincerely,

President Andrew Cuthbert, Manhattan Prime


OOC: My apologies if this is amateurish, but I’m very new to RP-ing! :)

After reviewing the civil rights and political freedoms of Manhattan Prime, the United Republics of Tiburon feels that Manhattan Prime has a suitable level of each to ally itself with Tiburon. Do you wish to have terms or simply leave it at saying, "We're allies"?

OOC: For any PMs relevant to this alliance, please send them to the nation "Tiburon", not "Neo-Tiburon", which is simply Tiburon's forum nation.

I highly recommend you (and any other newb) read The Godmodding Guide (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=274470) (godmodding being one of the banes of NS) and The NS Guide (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=357975).

Nice to meet ya.

Tiburon – How about we make it a treaty of non-aggression between our nations, coupled with a diplomatic exchange?

With your permission, our delegation to both nations will consist of

1 Ambassador
1 Aide

Perhaps a mutual defense pact instead of a non-aggression treaty?

Tiburon - A mutual defense pact is fine by us. We're willing to pledge ourselves to aid you in any way we can, if ever you need aid. Is an exchange of embassies still acceptable to your government?

Star Republic of Anagonia - That's a very kind offer Anagonia. Would you be willing to formalise terms in a mutual defense pact, or would you prefer to keep it an informal offer? We would also like to offer you an exchange of embassies, and would like to hear your views on this

Unofficially, what did you have in mind? ;)

We could formalize, and could exhange embassies and ambassadors. It is up to you.
Manhattan Prime
29-03-2005, 22:37
In that case we are willing to offer Anagonia a formal mutual defense pact, and a pledge to aid each other in any way, if either of us needs any support. We would like to exchange ambassadors, our requirements being only an embassy in your capital capable of housing a team of:

1 Ambassador
1 Aide
1 Trade attaché
1 Cultural attaché
1 Defense attaché
12 General staff
10 Diplomatic Guard

Our Ambassador will be Ambassador Craig Rosen.

We hope this proves acceptable to you, and would like to hear your requirements for an embassy in our country.

And we shall use all the might of all of the ancient yet modern United Republics to do the same for your nation.

This has been approved. What is the name of the capital?

The capital of Manhattan Prime is named simply Manhattan. Space has been made for your Embassy at 5 Embassy Square.

Our requirements are only an embassy in your capital capable of housing a team of:

1 Ambassador

1 Trade attaché
1 Cultural attaché
1 Defense attaché

Our Ambassador to Tiburon will be Ambassador Michael Stuart.

We look forward to hearing details regarding your Ambassador, the location of our Embassy, and any special requirements you may have.

Our ambassador shall be Lical Ericson, former Tiburonese ambassador to Ruhr. The Manhattanian embassy has been created on the remains on the former Ruhrian embassy, since Ruhr no longer exists as a nation. It is located in the Alliance Subsection of the International Quarter of our capital, Crystal City. It is located on 58 Delaz Street.

Our embassy requires space for one ambassador and 25 other staff members, 5 of whom are senior office holders. We prefer to customize our own embassies, since such changes are dependent not only on Tiburonese technology but also, ultimately, of the whims of individual staff members.

We understand this desire, and as such all 'properties' in our Embassy Square are in reality nothing more than empty plots of land, ready to be developed.

We thank you for the details of our embassy, and our team will be depatched shortly. We hope this move will benefit relations between our nations.

Sorry I couldn't get back to you earlier, had some unfinished business to take care of.

This is highly acceptable, and we would be glad to obligue to your request for an Embassy within Union City, our state Capitol. An embassie has been built and not used for some time there, along with many others, and it is yours for the taking. You may bring any type of Military and/or Civilian vehicle, aircraft, and equipment to make your stay more enjoyable and safe.

You are given a plot of 5 acres for your enjoyment.

Hopfully this will lead to an alliance, and, if you so wish, we will be happy to give you an alliance any time you wish.

Thank you for your time.

Dr. Owens-
On behalf of the people of Cetacia, please allow me to impart wishes of peace and prosperity to your great nation. We find your alliance proposal intriguing and are excited at the prospect of friendship and exchange with a such a like-minded nation. I find your candid response to Rommelwood admirable, and would like to add that my nation is not interested in alliance with such countries as well.
On the matter of diplomatic establishment/interchange, I suggest a cultural interchange program. Our tiny island nation does not require an embassy, but we would be pleased to contribute to your economy by leasing an office. This office would be headed by Dr. Kyosuke Krill (Class A Cultural Interchange Minister) and would concern itself with cultural studies and interchange with Manhattan Prime. Dr. Krill is excited by the prospect of studying your culture and learning from your government's policies.
We hope to foster friendly relations and bilateral learning between our respective nations.
My regards to President Cuthbert,
President Azur Tyde, Republic of Cetacia

Thank you for your kind offer Anagonia, Ambassador Rosen and his team have been dispached.

A plot of land ready for development is waiting for you at 4 Embassy Square, in the city of Manhattan. We await only the details of your Ambassador.

The government of Manhattan Prime has decided to take you up on your generous offer of an alliance. Consider it so. If ever you need assistance, Manhattan Prime is at your service.

President,

Thank you for your kind offers of friendship. A Cetacian Cultural Office has been set up in the capital, and we look forward to welcoming Dr Krill and his team to our nation. In the spirit of friendship, he will find there samples of our art and literature as well as a case of Manhattan Wine, an excellent vintage.

We would like to hear more regarding your suggestions for an alliance? Would a mutual defense pact suit you?

With your approval, we would like to send a small team to Cetacia to act as our delegation. Professor Robert Andrews has expressed an interest in becoming Ambassador to your clearly peaceable and science loving nation. His small team awaits your approval.

Crizzack and Ornithica - My thanks for your offers of friendship. My government is prepared to offer mutal defense alliances to both your nations. If you ever have need of us, you have but to ask, my allies.

British Principality - We would be pleased to offer you an embassy in Manhattan, our capital. Land is ready at 6 Embassy Square for you to develop to your specifications. We await details of your chosen Ambassador, and any special requirements you may have, and would also ask if we could establish our own embassy in your nation in return.

We would be honoured to accept Her Majesty and the Prime Minister to our country for a state visit and our President has expressed a desire to return the favour some time in the future.

We are also happy to give you our official endorsement, but we would need to be a member of your region to do so. We are looking for a new region to join and would like to hear more about yours.
