In the TheLandThatHopeForgot where there are no government services and the corporations rule. The rich are incredibly well off but the poor are incredibly poverty stricken.A "government" building was hit by an arson attack which burnt the place to the ground due to the sabotage of sprinklers.
Vandelism on major corporate buildings was getting out of control and now hired Secruity Force heve been brought in, for the protection of the nation's rich from the poor. A huge protest started at the capital and the Secruity forces are to be dealing with but they are untrained and violent so the peaceful protest soon turned into a full scale which left hundruds injured and some dead. The nation is now in a state of martial law as the poor fight for the liberation of their country from the power hungry corporations and government.

Usual mess, I see. Well, keep us informed. Supplying the poor and hungry with what they need for victory is something we like doing.

((OOC: The story is nice, but use spacing when appropriate. Also, smileys in your story will not make people take you seriously. Other then that, welcome to NationStates...))

I've actually been here since May

Don't you think having a government would be a good idea? Might want to look into that....

I've actually been here since May

((OOC: Then welcome to the forums. Heh, I'll post later ICly, for now, I will watch...))

Anti-captalist, pro-government spending adovocate George Cahn was arrested in a dawn raid by secruity forces this morning for his possible participation in the riot raids. He shall be taken to trial next week on charges of conspiricy against the government. Should he be found guilty Mr Cahn could possibly suffer a death sentance.

In other news large numbers of corporations are leaving the country. It is beleived that they are fleeing the riots and despite the lax laws on business and the lack of minimum wage many see it just to dangerous to stay in TheLandThatHopeForgot any longer.

The Republic of Darth Tepe is willing to send 50 men of their International Peace core to secure the embassies and governmental buildings from the freedom fighters.

After hours, two large transport planes land on the international airport of TheLandThatHopeForgot. They unload their cargo, holding light blue symbols that show they are the neutral ones. These soldiers and land rovers soon patrol near the governmental buildings, and inside them

"We have just recieved this video from the leaders of the resistance".

There is a tall man wearing a hand knitted a ballaclava clutching a rusty revolver.

"Today we succesfully ambushed a business convey of mercs and limos leaving the country in a hurry. We have now in our control 12 businessman hostages. Everyday you do not comply to our wishes one will be executed and it won't be pretty. We want cheap healthcare for the poor, schools and welfare.

This is also a call for all the oppresesed people of our nation to join up in this essential fight. I would also like to request help from our neighbours in the defeat of this corrup "governement".

There is a shot of the 12 hostages all wearing blindfolds.

OOC: Ronamiana, you should really rethink that. You have a populace of 5 million. You would have about 1,25 million soldiers, which at this stage are not very well trained. Anyone could really crush you into oblivians

Ronamiana is supporting the Government.

And to Darth Tepeyes my soldiers are a little under-trained but they're facing rebels who aslo have very little experience.So that evens it out a little. Plus the troops will get some experience from the fight.

Very well. Medical aid and small arms can
be dropped by aircraft, Ammunition likewise.
Heavier weapons we will attempt to deliver by sea.
Please give us your position.

We are positioned in the west of region Tamworth. Thanks all for your help

So is my proposal to intervene accepted?

The rebels of TheLandThatHopeForgot began smuggling operations in a small schedluded area in the South of the country, ammunition and weapons were being brought in from foreign aids to help in the struggle. When suddenly they were surronded by a romanaina's troops. Who shouted "Drop your weapons and surrender! If you do not comply we shall be forced to open fire!" At that the foreign helicopters left from the scene immediatly.

The leader screamed "Retreat but do not surrender!" The rebels fled into their cars and trucks in a vain attempt to escape. Bullets rained down from the enemy troops forcing most of the vechiles to stop. The ones who managed to escape met with a heavily armed road block. They all gave in apart from one ford pickup truck which shot off road and along the bumpy hills. The truck was really no match for the terrain though and found himself being chased by Secruity Jeep which was close behind. A man clambered from the back of the pickup he held his AK tight and let loose on the jeeps windscreen leaving the truck to escape into the night.

So is my proposal to intervene accepted?

O i forgot yes it was. thanks

"That was a balls-up," commented Defence Minister Kazakov as he watched the TV feed, being pirated from the corporate news agencies. He took a drag on his cigarette. "A bloody stupid balls-up."
"Correct, Mikhail. But what's to be done about it?" replied Anton Schützer, the Foreign Minister.
"Well..." Kazakov looked uncomfortable. "We could intervene on their side. It'd be a foreign policy statement I think we might want to avoid making, especially in light of our recent actions, but it might be the only way."
"That's dodgy ground," mused Schützer. He stared out of the window. Anvil-esque clouds gathered on the horizon, chasing away the blue sky. "But it would be effective. Can't see an enormous amount of public support for it, mind you."
"Yes. Too many wars spoil the mood." Kazakov chuckled darkly. "Oh well. We could make it covert."
"You mean use submarines."
"I mean we could make it covert," snapped Kazakov.
"Listen, what can we do? We can't just start using cruise missiles to blow apart government buildings!" Schützer was clearly unhappy with the idea of what might happen if the sub or subs were found.
"And why not?" asked Kazakov coldly. "That's what we developed the Navy for."
"I suppose," replied Schützer. "I just don't know. We can't afford to send in submarines to use missiles..."
"Why?" asked kazakov, cutting him off. "We've spent more than 10 years and hundreds of trillions of Tank Tracks to build this Navy. It costs us 800 billion per year to maintain. It's not worth having, if all we do is let it sit there looking pretty!"
"But what about the repercussions!" shouted Schützer. "What about what happens if it gets found?"
"It won't get found, comrade," snarled Kazakov.

It was another two hours before the decision to send a submarine unit armed with cruise missiles to intervene was taken. The Cabinet, after frenetic and heated argument, passed the motion by 5 votes to 3, with 2 abstaining. Thirty minutes after that, orders went out to four Northern Fleet Akula-III SSNs to make ready for sea, and the ships began to load SS-N-21 and SS-N-27 cruise missiles, all armed with conventional warheads.

The "nuetral team" is going to get blown to hell then? I think they best run

In their plan to keep it "covert" DontPissUsOFf did not tell the rebels or the nuetral army guarding the buildings. The rebels had already managed another smuggling operation using small ships in a shadowy cove with The Island of Rose's forces. With this new equipment the rebels began a fall blown war against the government and their protectorate. Unknown to both sides was the fact that they were all going to get blown to hell.
