Most Respected Leaders of Honored Neighbors~

My newly independent nation's leader, The High Mystic, has entrusted me with the task of opening my beloved country to the outside world, procuring alliances with sister-nations, and opening trade between The Holy Republic of the Lady Eris and other most honored nations. This proclamation is thus targeting the goodwill of all leaders who read and wish to open relations with a Republic whose honor will not be broken and whose gratitude for good turn will be repaid by similar turn. As a gesture of goodwill, The Holy Republic Of The Lady Eris is sponsoring indefinite visas for any delegates from Friendly Nations whose wish is to open an Embassy on Our Fair Soil. Delegates simply must contact me, Minister Of Foreign Relations, by telegram or by International Forum and be interviewed, and said delegates' nations should, in reciprocity, be willing to sponsor Erisian Ambassadors. The Holy Republic Of The Lady Eris thanks you in advance for your good faith and confidence, and wishes you all the greatest of Health and Fortune in the name of Our Lady Eris.


--Sincerely And With The Greatest Of Respect,

Greetings and Salutations to the Kingdom of Chancellory:

The Lord High Mystic and Chief Speaker of the House Of The Lady Eris wishes to express his highest joy at being welcomed thus. Relations between our two Nations can only mean that Fate has smiled upon our Newly Independent Nation. In response to your most generous placement of our Embassy site, the Counsel of Free Erisians wishes to extend a generous offer in kind. Thus, we offer for your nation's Embassy and Ambassadorial Residence on Our Soil a site most pleasing to the eye and most precious in the Collective Heart Of The Holy Republic Of The Lady Eris. A site known as Palace Of The Golden Apple in our capital city of Chaose is hereby set aside as the Embassy site for the Kingdom of Chancellory's use for the duration of our amicable relations, a time span no doubt eternal. Also, The Holy Republic Of The Lady Eris does pledge to you Our Support, both financially and militarily, in case of any disaster that should befall your Most Honored Nation. Peace be upon your people.

Most Happily,

As long as Democracy does not exist in your country Tayricht will not support you.

To The Most Honorable Speaker For Tayricht:

While I cannot in good faith define my nation's government as a Democracy, you can be assured that the Erisian People have a large say in the governmental process. Voting as an institution was outlawed for the simple fact that in this day and age, the voting process was prone largely to apathy. Rather than force our people to vote, a concept that would violate the ideals of freedom, we simply have a Parliament, if you will, of citizens from all classes whose sole purpose in meeting is to resolve the issues of the day in such a manner as to take the best care of Our Nation's needs. Thus, those whose apathy keeps them from voting are still fairly represented in government policy. While this may not sway your decision, we do sincerely hope to have somewhat amicable relations with your fair nation and its people. Fear not, justice, the rights of the few, the needs of the majority, peace, and security for all are indeed the only interests the Holy Republic has. We thank you for your consideration of Our People's well-being and wish your nation prosperity, peace, and happiness.

Sincerest Honor And Faith,
Morrigaine MacDuff
Minister of Foreign Relations
Ordained Speaker For The House Of The Lady Eris

Most Honorable People of the Armed Republic of BLARGistania,

The Erisian people have shown great joy and interest in visiting and becoming familiar with your nation, and the High Mystic himself wishes to commit a date for a tour of your greatest sites.

Doujin will allow an embassy and host delegates from your nation on our soil, assuming we are allowed the same - and our embassy in your nation declared sovereign Doujin territory, and it will be manned and guarded by Doujin military personnel

To The Great United Socialist States of Doujin:

Hail, and Greetings! Your nation is granted this somewhat rare privilege, on condition that it is acceptable for the site of your Embassy to be a less ostentatious place, with no historical significance to our people. Apologies to your Ambassador, but we will strive to our utmost to ensure his comfort and safety. We will, of course, have a limited number of allowed military personnel on the Embassy site, but rest assured that the number will be a mutually, and the mutual aspect is greatly stressed in this case, satisfactory number. Also, as to "ambassadorial exemptions" from certain laws, please, keep in mind that our laws are there for our safety as well as yours, therefor immunity is severely limited; however, no ambassador from a Sister-nation shall be tried on Erisian soil by an Erisian court for any crime, no matter how high. We trust in our Sister-nations goodwill and faith to resolve any gross negligence or wrong-doing that requires any action above revoking of visa.

Peace and Prosperity,

Glory And Peace to The United Socialist States of The Aztec National League!

The Holy Republic is in a state of nearly spontaneous festival at the idea of opening relations with your richly colored nation. Our children are taught at an early age of your region's wonderful heritage. The prospect of being a part of that heritage only thrills and delights The Holy Republic of The Lady Eris. The Minister of National Heritage, Michael Cornwal, has expressed great interest in an exchange of historical artifacts, to be displayed in our respective nations' National Museum.

When cam we expect your ambassador to arrive to Doujin?

In these troubled times, it is good to see friendly nations such as yours. This great first contact scenario will hopefully be the start of an long lasting friendship between our two nations. An exchange of historical artifacts would be good. Should you give us some of yours, we will place them in The Chichén Itzá Museum of Civlization, Natural History, Art and Science and have one in display in our Capital. We in return would give you, as an gift, an codex dated back to 1482 AD.

Your people are always welcomed in the ANL. If your nation needs anything, please, let us know. We have supplies such as iron, steel and other construction materials, and even though we are not an militaristic nation, we do sell some weapons and if you need some and can financially support it, we will either sell them to your nation at an discounted price or consider it an "extended loan."

Just to let your nation know, the ANL has banned all WMDs within it's boundaries, so that is one thing we can not sell to you.

When cam we expect your ambassador to arrive to Doujin?

Greetings and Salutations To The United Socialist States Of Doujin!

My most formal and respectful greeting to your great people, I am Roland Deschain, Future Ambassador to The United Socialist States of Doujin. My arrival, along with my small entourage of about 19, is slated to be somewhere in the range of 1 year, as I do not wish to strain my welcome by bursting suddenly into your nation. Also, I have pressing matters to attend to, so that I may devote my full attention to affairs involving our nations on my arrival. I hope my missive finds you in good health and in high prosperity.

Honor and Glory In Faith,

Most Honored Reverence To The United Socialist States Of The Aztec National League:

Your cutting off of WMD says volumes about your great respect for the profound innocence and value of the human life. Truly we are proud to have you as a Sister Nation. WHile your offer of aid was truly heart-warming, importive trade for The Holy Republic Of The Lady Eris will be severely limited so that internal economy stays strong. Our Republic has decided, by unanimous decision of Erisian Council, to donate to Your Nation's Museums several statues of Early Erisian art: a statue of the Lady Eris, c. 1084 A.D., a rendering of The Holy Apple in beaten gold overlaid on stone, c.1562, and a modern statue created by Our High Mystic of the First Snubbing, whose somewhat whimsical name belies the exact seriousness of its importance to Our People. Also, we provide for Your People's enjoyment a set of previously unseen scrolls containing references to Our Lady in Early Greco-Roman Religion. We hope these offerings please and delight Your People as much as your incredibly generous offer has delighted the People of THe Holy Republic Of The Lady Eris.

Thanks and Goodwill,

Your people are very kind. We will send the codex, along with some rare crystals and gems worth approxamatly $5,000,000 that have been found in our land. We will also send you an crate of chocolate to your nation as soon as you are ready to recive it. The National Museum and Capital center are already preparing for your artifacts. I would again like to reiterate what the High Chief said, your people are always welcome to our nation and if you need any help, just let us know.

There is one question I do have, what does "KALLISTI" mean? I am just currios.

-Dr. Daruis Wellington
Foreign Affairs Minister

Greetings Dr. Wellington:

As High Mystic and Trustee of the Spiritual Well Being of Our People In Our Lady's absence, the honor of explaining a bit of our faith falls to me. It requires a bit of background, so do forgive me if I seem long-winded. It does seem to be a required trait for religious leaders, not to mention government heads. Unfortunately for my listeners, I am both. But I digress...

The term "KALLISTI" is a Greek phrase translated to English as, "To The Fairest" or "To The Most Beautiful." The meaning of this dates back to ancient times, times long relegated to mythology when Our Lady and Her Siblings walked the Young Earth. Our Lady, Eris, was snubbed at a wedding of two of Her Sibling-Gods, and in a fit of righteous wrath, decided that the slight must be avenged. Inscribing "KALLISTI" on a Golden Apple, Eris threw it among the celebrants. The apple, as planned, rolled among the three "fairest" Goddesses, Athena, Hera, and Aphrodite...the ensuing spat among the three vain and shallow deities sparked a more widely known conflict- The Trojan War.

The lesson is important to Erisians for many reasons, but the one that most applies to international affairs is our firm grasp of the concept of the "Moth Wing Theory." The theory states that even small, seemingly insignificant things can lead quickly, or eventually, as the case may be, to very big things.

Thank you for allowing me to share some of Our Lady's past with you.


Highest Blessing,
High Mystic Of The House Of Lady Eris
Leader of the Holy Republic Of the Lady Eris
