Treatise on Government and War (Closed RP, Invite Only)

A Bjornoyan Herrgott sat alone in the vast chamber that would give birth to the pact that might save the world and its nations from utter destruction and annihilation. The Bjornoyans had gone over the top with security measures on this one. Encrypted messages giving specific locations and objectives were sent to a handful of world leaders. The instructions to get to the site were bewildering.

The journey would take the guests to an ancient historical site in the suburbs of Necropolis. The guests were to arrive at 2:25 AM Bjornoyan time near an abandoned subway station near a retirement home. An automated luxury liner would take the guests through the unknown and desolate tunnels and shafts to a most disturbing spot. Upon their arrival, the guests would exit, and be met with the sight of thousands upon thousands of skeletons, whose bones had become engrained into the structure itself. They would walk down a seemingly endless tunnel of death, a small portion of the Necropolis catacombs where centuries ago the bodies of the deceased had been carefully entombed. A large wooden cross in the center of the hallway still bore in Bjornoyic the encryption, “The Truth will set you free.”

Further down the hallway, the guests would walk through a pair of enormous brass doors, opened to them by the first obvious sign of human life; two elite soldiers of the Bjornoyan Federal Peacekeepers. Passed the doors and sitting alone at a marble table was Bjornoya’s Left Hand of State.

The terms of the pact were simple; it would guarantee all the benefits of war without any of the repercussions. It allowed for nations to maintain the economic and industrial blooms that come with war, along with granting the governmental possibilities that arise by keeping the populace in perpetual fear and uncertainty. Whatever their intentions were from signing the pact, the members had already agreed to the terms. The Bjornoyan Patriarch had his own interests for signing the pact, mostly because it could save the lives of thousands of his citizens, his children.

The terms never stated anything about not declaring war, or even not giving the impression of going to war. If war were to come, the Bjornoyans would declare it, and give their populace the illusion of being at war. Hundreds of machines and thousands of troops would be mobilized. They would simply wait near the borders of the nation and the major cities, unmoved, unchanging, stoically watching and waiting for an illusory enemy who would never come.



Mephistopheles' Pact: (http://0601.netclime.net/1_5/N/B/E/Hollow.mid)

The various nations that still exist in the world have in the past always been either attempting to conquer and consume or resist such moves by other nations. Nations have at times signed alliances with one another, but the objectives have remained the same until recently. It is the natural duty of a nation’s government to control; not only to control the interactions and workings of the various processes within its borders, but to control itself as well. This pact is a promise of self-restraint; a self-restraint that if not held could result in the destruction of millions of people, thousands of years of national culture, and ourselves. It is a simple comparison, we are civilized, but what makes civilization? The answer is suppression. What separates man from beast? The ability, the capability to suppress. For example, if a simple dog is given an unlimited amount of food, it will keep eating, keep consuming until its stomach compacts, eventually leading to death. We leaders, however, have an inherent ability to suppress such urges. Similarly, our source of power revolves around monitoring and controlling; around suppressing such urges in our subjects. It is in this spirit that we offer this pact; both as a source of self-control and of national power and stability.

Nations who sign this pact are obliged to restrict:

a) the use of all nuclear weapons against other signed member nation.
b) the use of all biological and chemical weapons against other signed member nations.
c) the use of large scale bombings of industrial and urban areas against other signed member nations.
d) the hostile movement of troops into signed member nations’ territories.

Signed:

The representative exited and was slightly worried by the sight of the skeletons. It was a marcabre area, but after a relatively long walk, he got to the brass doors and entered without the two Bjornoyans even considering to stop him. He entered, and found the pact. Out came a pen, and he quickly signed it with

Prime Minister Thomas Rothsky

before he walked out again, releaved over the fact that he had just saved thousands of lives, mainly those of his countrymen. It was well worth it.

The mysterious Hirgizstanian had never been seen before. In Cape Verde President Shanotogo ruled, but the Hirgizstanian Commonwealth was the brain child of one man, The Fuhrer. From the secretive Hirgizstani tribe he had fought against injustice for many years in many different places.

The first colony to become part of the Hirgizstanian Commonwealth, Cape Verde, had once tried to be freed, many years ago, by other Hirgizstanian's. Now it was the Fuhrer's turn. There was no point in showing himself as of yet. Cape Verde was only just under control, no, the time was not right. Better to sit in the shade and control than to expose yourself and fall.

In any case he had been summoned here, to Bjornoya to ensure the future of the Commonwealth, and possibly of mankind as a whole. The Hirgizstanian Commonwealth was small, but within days of power was already expanding across Africa, soon to take its place on the world stage.

The Fuhrer, flanked by two Hirgizstani Fuhrer Guards was slightly bemused by the skeletons, more intrigued than concerned. The arhitecture was legendary, strange, innovative, yet old and worn.

The darkness began to give way at the end of a tunnel, and two rather large soldiers opened up a door as the three men approached and they walked into a granoise room of healthy proportion.

The Fuhrer was directed to sign a copy of Mephistopheles' Pact, under two previous signatures he signed...

The Fuhrer of the Hirgizstanian Commonwealth and Dominions

He turned nodded at the man in the room overseeing the signing and left the way he had arrived. That simple movement of a pen, so unstriking and plain, would have dynamic effect internationally, such a small act saving so many souls.

Quite interested by the skeletons, since they seemed to hint at the Schwarze Sonne and Thule Gesellschaft, Reichsleiter Reinhardt Heifer's eyes gleamed with fascination. To his left was Reichsführer Hermann Goettel and in front of the two men was the Führer.

The pact lay in front of the Reichskanzler, and without hesitation pulled a platinum pen out of his coat with the Eagle of the Reich engraved on it. This writing utensil was the only one he used to sign government-related documents. He quickly gave his signature.

Reichskanzler Heydrich-Reinhard Kübler,
Führer of the Fourth Reich,
Führer of the Volksdeutsche,
Führer of the Lebensraum,
Führer of the Ausländer,
Führer of Europa Prime.
