I would like to congratulate you on your move to disband the government. Who needs the government when you know what's best for them?

Supreme Commander Alexander Pesta

The Exetonian Empire regrets to see the need to disband the government of Exetonia Minor disbanded, and we support the decisions of our allies.

To maintain Imperial Exetonian security, we have been forced semi-close the border with Exetonia Minor, so as to prevent terrorists, bandits and rebels from taking this oppertunity to strike at either The Exetonian Empire, or Exetonia Minor. However, anyone who recieves aproval from Robert John Powell, and The Government of The Exetonian Empire is free to travel. We would like to assure everyone that this is simply a defensive step to ensure security, and NOT a hostile act towards Exetonia Minor IN ANYWAY.

We also express a wish that this change in government will not effect Exetonia Minor in any of her Treaty obligations.

Exetonia Erwache!
