MUL NUN-KI announces a new region, and once is too much.

MUL NUN-KI
02-02-2004, 22:59
I, Marduk, the benevolent ruler of MUL NUN-KI, the son of E-A, and apprentice to the AB-GAL, have created a new region. There are many uninhabited islands in this region awaiting colonization. The region's natural resources include oil, natural gas, gold, precious stones, and metals that have been deemed of "strategic national interest" by some Western Nations. These resources, however, remain mostly undeveloped, as their need is abysmal within the region. Jewelry and charms are popular, and the Emerald is the dominant currency. Bartering is also a very popular means of economic transaction. MUL NUN-KI is an emergent power in cheese, trout, and book publishing.

I will relate to you our brief history;
The principal island of MUL NUN-KI rose from the Ocean in late January of 2004. The miraculous and instantaneous creation of wealth in both natural resources, and marketable commodities stands as a testament to Marduk. (Excuse my scribe; her efforts to ennoble are unnecessary) Marduk's smaller islands within the MUL NUN-KI chain have bison herds free of mad-cow disease, and we are poised to dominate the world's frozen hamburger markets. Abundant natural fertilizer is used on the agricultural islands to produce all natural vegetable, fruit, and grain products for MUL NUN-KI's mostly vegan population. (That is B.S.)

MUL NUN-KI boasts the world's most beautiful women. While most of our military is engaged in public projects, specially equipped and trained female soldiers are sent to infiltrate the upper echelons of major governments worldwide. Their wiles have plied top secrets from the planet's foremost defense contractor's, and political leaders. The alliances thus created have led to many "freebies" from grateful, and often anonymous, donors. Our modern defense system is being installed by attaché’s of the British and American military forces, Halliburton, and Shell Oil. Our region will soon be able to respond with deadly accuracy to any threats from sea, air, or space. The Raytheon Corporation has opened regional headquarters here, and their experimental satellite photon system is hoped to eliminate any threats in space. The recent donation of laser and EMP devices to the space-based arsenal will allow the elimination of anyone, anywhere, any time. Peace, thus assured, renders potential foes impotent and war impractical.

This region is surrounded by coral reefs making water approach by large vessels impossible. The sole harbor, to the south of the reef, is supported by an artificial island nearly 3,500 acres in size. Facilities for the import and export of goods from, and to, other NationStates, along with the headquarters of Norwegian Cruise Lines are found here. Our modern airport hosts a major hub for Northwest Airlines, and also hosts the United States military. The U.S. lease agreement pays Marduk $.72 billion dollars annually, a gift from a grateful President that Marduk supplied with cigars, and spot remover.

An underwater expressway leads from the harbor directly to MUL NUN-KI. Our electro-magnetic transportation systems are the envy of all who visit. Pollution free, quiet, never any traffic jams, and no lost luggage in this region. Do not scoff at these remarkable achievements; it is nothing compared with the difficulty of doubling the population in less than a week.

The pristine beaches, clear turquoise water, and the abundant flora and fauna found on all of the islands within the region will prove a magnet to the weary masses of other regions in NationStates.

If you wish to join this region, please contact Marduk at MUL NUN-KI with your ideas on how to make NationStates a better game. If I, Marduk, prove worthy, East of Eden will host many enigmatic Nations interested in human nature, and the mysteries of the cosmos. Let us talk of trade. We have cheese. We need wine.

Welcome in Peace, Sharing in Understanding, Passersby in Life, East of Eden awaits. Marduk is forever grateful to Mr. Hefner. Please invite me back.
