The Republic of Coreworlds is pleased to announce, that years of secret research, and hundreds of millions of dollars have paid off, and is willing to invite any delegates (some seats are reserved for Konoha and Neo Tokyo) you may send to watch our first step into a wider world take place. It is a twofold victory, for the Jedi Knight Refugees are excited to return to space travel after 30 years of isolation from the rest of the galaxy.

Tickets are 100 credits per delegate, 50 for kids under 13 (if you have junior delegates [kids over 13], it's 75) and 50 for senior citizens. Hotel space will be made available in order to tour our capital, Core City, which houses our Jedi Academy and cultural center, while you wait for the launch in 2 days from now.

Thank you, Celttis. Our children will be most pleased (except for those who are scared of clowns, that is). You might want to send a couple of your kids to watch our first launch. Security is very tight, due to our Jedi.

If it is ok we would like to send a class of 14 kids all are hadicapt. I adviced our circus personel that they could you only a lite makeup on clows so that they would look pleasant and kind.


OOC: handicapt, i'm trying to say that they are disabled in different ways.
OOC2: everyone try to bare with my English, it's not my native lanquage :oops:

We shall attend. Our delegation will be bringing a 15-man stormtrooper bodyguard fully kitted with blaster rifles.

That's fine, Celttis. tickets are wired.

Imperial Navy, you may come, but your stormtroopers will be required to stay in the background and work with our Jedi. tickets wired upon money confirm. We also have blasters now, btw.

Very well-but they shall be watching. Tension is high within the Imperial Navy at the moment. we are having problems with a nation called Ragnarok VIII.

Can your Jedi also detect bombs and snipers?
CoreWorlds

Snipers, yes; bombs, no.

"T minus-6 hours to go before our first launch! The citizens of Coreworlds Konoha and NeoTokyo are out by the thousands!" Larry Bird (wearing Hawaiian clothes) of the Coreworlds Network News reported. "Schools and businesses are closed for this momentous day of our nation's life. Hello, young child, What's your name?"
"David." The 8 year old replied, smiling.
"Are you excited about our satellite going up?"
"You bet! Next think you know, we'll be flying outta here and into space!"
*Laugh* "We will see, David, we will see." Larry returned to the camera. "As you can see, the kids are really excited about this great moment in history, as we await the launch of our first satellite. It will be a weather satellite, the Space Agency said, in order to keep better track of our fine, subtropical weather. Back to you, Sarah."

"Thank you, Larry. In related news, a major debate rages in the Senate as to whether we should use some of the space cash to fund an SDI program and defend ourselves from nuclear weapons. It may be days before the Senate can decide legislation for this major project..."

Above Coreworlds, a Musai VI Class Assault Cruiser stayed in orbit, monitoring the launch and checking to make sure the launch was successful.

"Hmmm... Any ideas about a proper "welcome" to these newbies in space?"

"My Lord, after our last disastrous welcome party to a new nation in space, I'd recommend against it. There is also the matter of the FCN cruiser orbiting around. Besides, I feel a disturbance in the Force there."

"You too? Then they weren't imaginations of mine. I Feel them. They are one with the Force, but..."

"Yes?"

"They are Tainted Ones. Poor people. They must be in dire need of our help. I think we better contact them to cure their problem."

"Yes, my Lord. I cannot imagine how someone tries to use the Force in such a complicated way, having Hate and Fear, that is easier and faster."

"Well it seems not all Force users are as enlightened as us. We must aid them. We might even extract some profit. Send them a message."

"At once, my Lord."

To: The Republic of Coreworlds

It seems that you have in your country some people attuned to the Force. But they seem to have a problem tapping into it. We have had people with similar problems in the past and know how to deal with it. We are willing to send an emergency team to teach these misguided people the proper ways to access to the Force.

<End Message>

(OOC: If you are wondering what I am talking about, look at my country's name. If you don't know what the Sith is, then you shouldn't have Jedis playing around.
We don't know ICly what Jedis are, so we think of them as Tainted Ones, misguided souls that must be brought to the right path of the Force. When someone is born with a natural affinity for the Light Side in my country, we correct that "deviation".)

*Reply to DarkSith*
We have no need for you to teach us the ways of the Force, so would you please stay out of our business?

OOC: In other words, go away and stop bothering us. (but this might make a good RP anyway)

Sorry, our foreign relationships office is about five credits short. We will watch the launch from satellite.

Over a loudspeaker, I, the President of Coreworlds has this to say.
"We are now ready to take the BIG step in our nations' history. Ready? Set! 10...9..."
The entire three nations, including the delegates chanted.
"8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1...Liftoff!"

The rocket ignited! It majestically rose into the sky, slowly at first, but faster and faster, higher and higher, cameras from all over the world following. Once the rocket went high enough, it split in two, and thrust even higher, in order to take the weather satellite to an orbit 20,000 miles above the Earth. at 18,000 miles, another two pieces split, this time the satellite and the second booster. The satellite spreads its solar panels, and starts taking in sunlight for the first time, and starts recording data to be beamed back down to the Space Agency. Coreworlds is now a nation that has joined the ranks of hundreds of others that have sent satellites into space. We made it! Parties will run deep into the night, and into the next morning, another day off.

Congratulations!

(Oh, and my foreign relations office is always short on cash. I never get around to sending them more money.)

(Probably my ambassador to Klonor, they never let him in so he spends all our money partying and goofing around.)
CoreWorlds

LOL! I'd fire the ambassador if I were you. We hold ours to a high standard.
