The Confederacy of Benicius is but a small nation though boasts a considerable defence force which is complimented by regional forces. Recent technological advancements by Benician scientists have allowed the nation to begin development of Ion based weapons systems. These are a purely defencive measure in light of the dangerous world we now find ourselves in. War is not favoured by the Benician leadership, rather we prefer trade and commerce to flourish. We ask fellow peaceful nations to join in a "coalition of the unwilling" to oppose war and support economic prosperity. Only in defence should we war and to that end, the Benician leadership is willing to share newly manufactured Ion defence technologies with member states.
