The Downfall of an Empire

22-10-2003, 20:33
Greetings, I am Sadi of the Nomadic Nation of Abdu'a. I wish to invite anyone who wishes, to join me in a tour of our nation. On this tour you will see not only the beauty of the sands, the comfort of water, the peace of my people, but also a better way of life. Unlike the "great" empires of the world, we have lived this way for thousands of years and still thrive. We cannot be conquered. We cannot be ruled. We cannot be crushed by the evils of mass media and commercialism. We simply live. We live like the sand, and like sand we live as long. So join us in a better way of life. Thank you.

pick a fight with one member of our region, and you pick a fight with the rest of us.

We are not gonna attack your region. We are saying that the nation could be conquered. And I'm not gonna attcak. Unless you want me too. Or we could have a war game to prove it.

Hmmmmm, your entire region is less than a sixth of my population, so I don't really need to worry either way. However I am not going to waste the fuel and ammo going to war with you. So please, don't make threats to larger nations.

time to smite

Who will thou smite? I'm sure if you go to war with him or me I'll take Padmasa's side or nations will side with me. I do have strong allies.

if i read this correctly, other nations started the whole threating thing. we are merly backing our own.

I could probably beat you as well. But I'm in friendly sort of mood at the moment, so instead I shall send a single Vampire-class stealth bomber (flying at low level to reduce the chance being detected) to drop leaflets proclaiming Shildonian Superiority on your cities.
Padmasa
22-10-2003, 21:08
Aye, you are reading it correctly. However I am involved and the arrogance displayed by your allies prompted me to humble them. You will note that I have yet to do anything... Hmmmm... I think I can solve everything.

*At this point 10 B-2 bombers are on thier way to drop leaflets proclaiming Padmasan Superiority all over the region. *

While we solve things I would like it noted that should a war break out Padmasa will choose it's side carefully and may disregard previous statementsThough that's not bloody likely.

Yes I agree with Padmasa and Shildonia. We are just saying that Abdual can be conquered. We were not even gonna attack him. But now I am thinking about attacking all of you are making empty threats (not Abdual or Padmasa or Shildonia or the other nations like them.)

EDIT- Estogenicide you can leave but before you do get this through your thick skull. We are sying that Abdual can be conquered. He said he can not be. So we are just saying that he can be conquered. Then Abdual's so-called allies made this into a fight. Now it might become a war.
22-10-2003, 21:19
We, the nation of Abdu'a, write an invitation to all to visit with us and learn about us and you threaten to destroy us? Why is it that all you who claim to be peaceful, kind nations feel that you must destroy anyone who says they are strong. You are like adolescent boys, trying to unnecessarily prove ones self. We wish only peace and prosperity and we get threatened. I feel sorry for your peoples. To have a leader who would attack another just because of a perceived strength is simply wrong. I hope for both our sakes you realize that I only intended to enlighten you. Allah be with you.

Thank you.

Goddess, I hadn't even considered war until Abdua's allies started making threats toward us for suggesting it could be done.

Estrogenocide:

OOC: If you are going to make threats, and deliver personal insults for people who interact with you in a way that is opposed to your desires then please do leave. Seriously, no matter what people will always disagree and do things counter to what you want and if you cannot accept that and roll with the punches then please, don't flame people and leave we who are decidedly civil about being disagreed with alone. I wish you luck at whatever RP 'site you go to.

We are not saying we want to destroy you. We are saying you can be conquered easly right now (later on you might not be) If these empty threats continue we are afraid we might want to destroy 1 of your ports. But we will not. Abdua we do not wish to destroy you. Maybe some other countries might but no countries in here would. Heck if you get invaded for no reason we will protect you. Oh and i'm willing to visit your country and tell you why you are in this tough spot.

EDIT- Your welcome Padmasa it's a good thing some people here have some common sense.

Padmasa would like to express it's deep concern over the current situation. Padmasa is of course willing to send a diplomat to view your nation... However Padmasa will not back down if it or it's people are threatened. We will fight for whatever side is in the right but we cannot stand the idea that a friendly jest would not only be taken so seriously but would cause our people and potential allies to be threatened.

In retrospect, although we are grateful to the Region of IndustrialNation for allowing us to remain, we are in direct disagreement with there international tactics. We hope that this decision does not offend IndrustrialNation and we do wish to have continued peaceful contact. If there are any peaceful Regions out there that will respect us and allow us to live as we choose we would be grateful. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

Abdua we too are willing to come over and discuss this like civilized men/women. We'll bring the pizza and coke :)
