Imperial Slave Market. Millions of slaves for sale. (multi-tech, Open RP)

Imperial Capital of Helios

The city was full of activity. Caravans from all over the vast empire came by land, sea, air, and even from space. Already nearly 400,000 slaves had entered the city. 700,000 Imperial Soldiers guarded the city, remembering how so many slave markets past had errupted into Anarchy, where the hundreds of thousands of slaves rebelled againt maybe 5,000 guards. That would not happen here. The guns were in lethal mode. The slave owners may get angry if their slaves are killed, but not for long. Besides, they're only slaves.

Meanwhile, on the Imperial Balcony overlooking the main plaza, the Emperor walked out to see his people. Once he was spotted, the crowds went WILD. They cheered for 5 minutes, and stopped as soon as he opened his mouth. After the crowd had quieted down entirely, the Emperor spoke. "Citizens of the Empire, people from abroad, welcome to the Imperial Slave market. This will be one of the largest slave markets in history, and we have cnfirmed already over 2 million slaves will be here by tommorrow. Estimates go up as high as 5 million slaves will be here in all. And with no futher delay, the slave markt is OPEN!" Amid the cheers of the citizens, the Emperor took his elevator quikly up to the highest tower in the city, which was on top of the palace, and rung the Victory bell, a massive bell that could be heard for miles. He struck three times, and then went back down. The Slave market had commensed.

The Emperor wishes that foreign nations that coem to the market bring their own slaves, so that there is diversity in the slave Market.

The Emperor and his viziers laugh at this empty threat. The imperial army has suffered but ONE defeat, and that was when 2 million Imperial Shock Troopers were outnumbered by 27 million Jangle Jangle Ridgeians, who had already used WMDs to destroy 40,000,000 lives. A small nation such as yours cannot defy the Might of the Imperial army, one of the most most powerful fighting forces in the 300 million to 500 million people category. We also have most of the region of Greater Nova York backing us, so just TRY to take action against us.

Certainly. This is an internatonal slave market, everyone is welcome. Except, of course, a group of people trying to disturb the market by freeing the slaves or something like that. Those people, however, will be dealt a swift and deadly blow by the Might of the Grand Imperial Army!

While you may feel it neccesary to bully other nations who express their displeasure at your barbaric practices The Concordiat will not be one of them. Your slave trading is a vile and destable practice, although we will not take action now to stop you, if we so felt we would certaintly have the forces to put an end to your slave trading, in addition the Southern Alliance would be right behind us in our assualt, so check your arrogance.

OOC: Your force estimates seem to be a little off, 10,000 boats?

OOC: 10,000 boats? What? Huh? Im confused...

The Empire is not a barbaric nation. Your nation may feel it has the advantage, but many countries have invaded out land. Most of them much larger than us. And everytime, save one, they have been swept from the field in a bloody defeat on their part. The only Nation that has ever defeated was, as stated before, much larger than us. Millions of enemy soldiers have died on the fields of my country, thinking that we would be an easy target. I would not wish to add my name to the list.

OOC: My country is having a slave revolt at this post:http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=6910074&posted=1#post6910074.
feel free to assist either side.

We will sell these slaves to you. Seeing how the sanctity of a slave-sell is honored in our culture, freeing them is perfectly fine to us. Of course, all you will be doing i giving us more money but its your choice.

Deserters- These people are tough and mostly brownish or gray many of them are incredibly strong and there language is remarkably easy to learn. Their average lifespan is about 80 or so years. They are magnificent warriors but most are happiest working in soil or with children. Remember these people are extremely happy after a day of hard work. They are 200 camel teeth apiece.
