(OOC Note at bottom discussing why I am posting this)
Italy II has long been owned by the Allied States of the Sword and Sheild. When it was won from Imperial Canada so many years ago, the Allied States promised to rebuild our economy (imploded at the time) improve our infrastructure, and grant us our independence by September 2003 (RL time, not NS). They were mostly succesful in this but an uprising cost them many lives to put down. With the Allied States now involving themselves in a new war they cannot afford to be Italy II's safekeeper or guardian any longer, and under certain conditions Italy II has been granted full independence.
Conditions-
1.) Italy II must become a full ally of the Allied States and declare war on Unitarian Randovia
2.) Italy II must sign a 30 year alliance with all other members of the Pelican Alliance (About a year and a half for RL time)
3.) The Allied States will keep it's large naval bases, air bases, and several army bases operational for at least 50 years.
4.) The Allied States will give Italy II several ships for it's own defense and negotiate with Imperial Canada to give them some planes.
5.) A major Allied military force will remain in Italy II for it's defense during the war, the 35 Km wide Isthmus that connects the Allied States and Italy II is considered a major threat if Italy should fall to Randovia
Current Italy II Military
320,000 Infantry (Mostly armed with Berreta BM-59's, however one division is armed with FAMAS, and the capitol units are armed with G36 rifles)
9,000 peices of towed artillery
400 M60 Patton Tanks
1 Regiment of Engineers
40 Crusader Self-propelled artillery peices
3,500 M113 APC's
30 M2A2 Bradley IFV's
1 Squadron of F-16's
4 Squadrons of F-4 Phantoms
20 Cobra Attack Helicopters
22 PT Boats
5,200 Anti-air peices
(OOC Note: Ok, since me (Allied States) playing as Italy II in modern tech right beside me would be a god-mode in my book, and selling them I consider just as bad, I am giving it away to another player. The tech must remain modern (+10 years limit) as long as the alliance lasts. If there is a space or past based nation that would like it please post, or if there is a new nation that will give up there modern nation for this bigger one, please post for it. If you are a modern tech nation and won't give up your current one for it, don't bother posting)
