Subject: Dextremmika

As Overseer of Commerce Heights Dependencies and Occupied Territories, I have taken notice of Aquilla's recent act against the Dextremmikan people. The Allied States of Dextremmika are officially a dependency of Commerce Heights, and the Commerce Heights military will act if Dextremmika sees the recent exodus of Dextremmikans from their homeland (OOC: this is referring to the ejection of Dextremmika from Spratly, which, though it was done by Alphanasia, is almost certainly a decision made by Aquilla) as sufficient reason to declare war. In addition to Dextremmika's military, an undisclosed number of Commerce Heights troops are present in Dextremmika (OOC: which is still in close proximity to Aquilla, since it is in the South Pacific). We realize that a war would not be beneficial to the people of Commerce Heights, New Manhattan, Dextremmika, or Aquilla (and possibly even Unified Planets), but we will not hesitate to start one if it is necessary. We ask you to consider a diplomatic solution to the current situation. The people of Dextremmika will require, at the very least, an apology from the Aquillan government. But don't think that's all it will take - Dextremmikans can be quite demanding at times.

Boobsylvania (don't mind me, I haven't visited in months prior to this :P ) happens to see the respective problems, and suggests a better way of communication rather than fictional emails. Perhaps the message should be rolled up, and inserted into the Aquilan ambassador, who may in turn be sent to Aquila. :P I'm sure that message would be received.

Well, I'm sorry, that won't work. Aquila, a resident of the New Meritocracy, was deleted for inactivity about 3 days ago.

Anyway, the proper email adress is gov@gov.gov . There hopefully it will be sorted into the section B email box, perhaps you should write words related to foreign affairs, so that the chances of that happening will be more likely. We can have only one adress for the government because the governments so small. Any more would be overkill.

It seems quite clear that Alphanasia's government has been corrupted by Aquillan nonsense. Just because Alphanasia happens to be semi-autonomous doesn't mean that Commerce Heights will look upon matters involving Alphanasia as being independent from Aquillan affairs. The Foreign Ministry and the Prime Minister have both agreed that Aquilla shall be held responsible for the unforgivable acts committed by the Alphanasian government. We ask that both the Alphanasian and Aquillan governments repay Dextremmika for the losses incurred by its removal from Spratly - in monetary terms, this might be something like ยง2,000,000,000,000.

What Baetica did to Karlrovians was in response to an unprovoked stockpiling of nuclear weapons in said nation, among other things. Our government has found no reason for Aquilla/Alphanasia to feel threatended by the presence of Dextremmikans in Spratly, and we would appreciate an explanation for your actions. If you do not do so, you should be aware that 8 of Commerce Heights' 16 new carrier battle groups are moving towards Dextremmika on their way to Spratly. (OOC: Is Aquilla still coastal?) Several hundred thousand Commerce Heights troops are already in Dextremmika. We do not wish to resort to military action, but our government will do what we must to ensure the safety of all Manhattanite, Federation, New Manhattanite, and Dextremmikan citizens.

Subject: Re: Sioko Consortium Involvement

Whil we believe that the Sioko Consortium is making a good decision by offering Sokarito as a possible location for peace talks, we must ask one question before we can accept the offer:
How did the Sioko Consortium receive information about our current diplomatic relations with Aquilla?
While you are correct in your implication that the nations of Commerce Heights and Aquilla (or, rather, Commerce Heights, Aquilla, and their colonial possesions) are on the verge of a military conflict, our Foreign Ministry has taken special precautions in order to prevent the leakage of this information. Should we find that the Consortium used espionage or similar tactics to find such information, the friendship between our nations may be severely jeopardized.

OOC: For your enjoyment, here is the article mentioned by the Sioko Consortium:
Lexington Sun-Herald
Commerce Heights To Spark Second Aquillan War?
COMMERCE HEIGHTS, CH - Is the Commerce Heights government really trying to start another war with Aquilla?
Several reports have indicated that a conflict between the two nations is brewing, probably due to the recent exodus of Dextremmikans from Spratly. No other nations seem to be participating in this secret diplomacy. Commerce Heights obviously believes that it needs to prepare for war, as recent purchases of naval and air equipment suggest. Arms manufacturing is at an all-time high, and estimates indicate that 10,000 Centaur VIIs are now rolled off the assembly line daily. The number might be higher if a Centaur VIII were not currently under development. No reports have left Lexington Air Force Base for several weeks, suggesting that a new project is in the works at the secret facility that created the first Manhattanite nuclear weapons.
When all available information is put together, it seems to suggest that a Second Aquillan War is beginning. It seems that either a surprise attack is being made by Commerce Heights or diplomacy between Manhattanites and Aquillans is breaking down... (cont'd on page 2)

OOC: I only did the 'continued' thing because I didn't think the rest of the article was important to this thread. I know that I didn't like it when KRR did it, but this time it's not in the middle of an important sentence. :P

BREAKING NEWS: USC ON HIGH ALERT, PRESIDENT INFORMS USC ON INTERNATIONAL EVENTS

Sokojito City, SK - The United Sioko Consortium Military have been put on High Alert today when threats were announced by the Aquillan Government. It seems that the CH and the AQ governments have been involved in an undercover diplomatic mission that seems to be failing. According to reports in numerous CH City newspapers, there has been increased spending for military supplies, more than 10,000 Centaur V Machine Guns, plans which were developed and sold to CH by Sokojito more than 7 years ago, has been increased from less than 500 a day.

According to the President the Sioko Consortium, including Sokojito and Sokojiwa, Sokarito, and Colony States, are ready to defend CH and Paripana should war erupt, military spending in the USC countries have also increased dramatically. Currently the combined USC Military conisists of 7,366,463 Battle Ready soldiers ready for combat, 3,634,797 Navy Personell, and 1,634,623 Air Force Pilots, engineers, and staff. Plus 4,363,833 in Consortium reserves and a possible draft amount of over 53 Million men and women in the USC.

Again, the President is pushing for a dipmlomatic solution to this impending danger to peace. More information as it comes in.

We have noted that the Aquillan government (with which we have 'less than perfect' relations) is declaring war on your small and nearly defenseless nation. We see this action of the Aquillan government as completely unprovoked, and the Ministry of Defense is strongly in favor of sending military assistance to your nation. Should you choose to accept our offer of friendship, a portion of our embassy building in Commerce Heights City will be dedicated to your nation, and a Manhattanite embassy will be built in Wakiszashi (if you choose to accept its construction). We cannot allow the harmless words of an unidentifiable Wakizashi citizen to bring the entire nation under the rule of Aquilla's so-called 'emperor'.

Your recent declaration of war against Wakizashi is severely weakening any future effort for peace between our two nations. The government of Wakizashi has done nothing to harm Aquilla (that we know of - if they have done something, please tell us), and you know that it will be uncapable of defending itself. Should the government of Wakizashi accept, Commerce Heights will deploy troops to come to the aid of Wakizashi, and, if successful, they will invade the nations of Alphanasia and Aquilla for various reasons (including this incident). We urge Aquilla to back down, so that peace may reign over Paripana and Spratly.

Ha! I've Stationed Myself Somwhere else! And now I sent 10 Large Nukes aimed at your capitol and have loaded 400,000 Marines on 1,000 Ships Guarded by 50 top-of-the-line (Home-Made) Battleships.

OOC: You seem to be godmodding. The only way you could possibly have nukes is if a larger nation was providing them to you (in which case we would be forced to contact that nation). 400k marines? That's over 10% of your population! You probably have an army larger than that (why would the Marines be bigger than the Army?), making the total population in Wakizashi's military over 25% (12.5% Marines, 12.5%+ army, plus the navy and air force)! 50 battleships? How'd you make them? You're only a day (NS month) old!
If you do not prepare a more reasonable attack, we will be forced to IGNORE your nation forever.

Some tips on how to make your military more reasonable:
Nuclear Weapons
You should only have them if an ally gave them to you or if you're about an RL month old. You do not meet either of these qualifications.
Total Military Personnel
The number of people in your military (all branches included) should be a maximum of 5%. Normally it should be significantly less than that (CH's military is about 1-2% of its population), but during wartime drafting can increase that number (though there will be economic consequences).
Equipment
Since your economy is very small, you cannot produce very much equipment. You also don't have a very large GDP, so you don't have a very large budget. The military budget is only a fraction of the national budget. You can find out what your GDP and national budget are here:
www.pipian.com/stuffforchat/gdpcalc.php?nation=wakizashi
If your military budget is 25% of your total budget (which is quite reasonable during wartime), your military budget would be provided by:
www.pipian.com/stuffforchat/gdpcalc.php?nation=wakizashi&defenseprovided=1&defense=25&militarybudget=1
(if you have a larger or smaller budget, just substitute a different number for the 25)
Remember that a large chunk of your military budget is used for things like feeding troops and maintaining equipment. You can use the remainder of your budget to purchase equipment at one of many storefront threads. To do this, simply post that you want certain items, find the total cost (if the cost of the items is provided), and say that the money has been wired.

Subject: Wakizashi-Aquilla War

It seems that the Sioko Consortium's offer of hosting peace talks between Commerce Heights and Aquilla may no longer be possible. Aquilla has declared war on Wakizashi, a nearly defenseless nation, for a few harmless words. Our Department of Defense (OOC: which includes all of our armed forces) has pledged its support to Wakizashi, thereby implicitly declaring war on Aquilla (which is something we did not want to do!). Even if the Consortium cannot become involved in a war against Aquilla, I believe it is in the best interests of everyone for Consortium troops to aid Manhattanite, Wakizashi, and Grigalan forces already moving towards the area.

If you applied this to every Rp, nations would hardly progress at all.

Nations do not exist entirely in RPs. The intermittent time goes as usual, as does the time during the RP to a certain extent. But in the RP time goes at a different rate based off of the start of it. In a sense everything is being backdated an increasing amount. Therefore you have gotten to Sirius D outside of the RP, debatably, but within it you did not, and were therefore blown up. Furthermore while you have a great deal more people outside the RP, again debatably as I feel you have very few people :wink: , within it you are still at the population of the beginning. Its a simple idea.

That's pretty complicates for as simple idea, but I agree with it.

And who said that I didn't get there, before it started? Or that I wasn't on Sirius D, or on Earth, but partway in between?

I believe that I was in the latter, when this started. So I have a bunch of humungoid colony ships stuck in limbo in deep space.

Fine. You've completed about 3-5 weeks of the journey. Not 104. ;)

In any case Coldorra has made it so you can't turn back. Something which may be quite useful. :wink:

When I sent that telegram to you, I was already in transit.

So? What you said still meant that the time remaining was two years.

Yes. I'm in transit. I changed my mind. But I'm not on earth so coldorra's missiles are still in orbit!

I'm not paying too much attention, hense my leaving bagging you on idiotic transit related godmods to CH, but changing your mind seems a bit impossible, assuming you're talking about a start time thats in the past. :wink:

And Coldorra's missiles where sent to Aquilla, not told to target individual Aquillans. Unless you're uprooting the entire nation, which would mean you'll go slow enough that I can pick you off easily, they hit Aquilla's Terra Firma. And therefore theres no turning back. :P
