Okay so is this 2020 or 2030?
Greater Beijing
17-10-2004, 17:41
A free democratic zone in Eastern China was not achieved until 2010
We didnt get back on our feet with the capacity for a robust space program for years after that. The International Fleet Initiative was passed in 2020 - ten years from that point is probably the best point to start from. Although maybe not the most interesting to roleplay possibly - we will have to make it interesting.

2031 then - like in I-Robot.
Except more concerned with Aerospace and the Asian economic impact of AI driven industries.

First on the table - the USSR must get its nationstates to disarm thier space programs.

We have TGed SE Asian regions about joining the ISEC but we havent to my knowledge talked with anybody in Russia or the USSR.
Zhejiang
17-10-2004, 17:49
Yes we should establish a serious contact with Siberia I will TG some people too.
Greater Beijing
17-10-2004, 17:53
However if it is not posible to work out the peacful agreement of disarmament of these weapons platforms we need to clear the Orbital Guard and IF resources in the Democratic Union of Asia for military action if neccesary - we will need a vote on this.

We welcome you 2 to the fold if indeed you guys have accepted the minimal requirements.

I would like to propose a 2nd Act to the International Space Exploration Conference.

ISEC ACT 02 - A unnanimous vote of acceptance be required of new applicants to IF membership and on the ISEC Council - this would give the membernaitons of the International Fleet and ISEC Councilors time to review post of the applicants and or look over the nations policies in other ways. We wouldnt want a nation coming in with the alterior motives of leaving with classified technologies that could be used against our nations.

Luna I votes Y

Shandong-Jiangsu
17-10-2004, 21:09
We vote Y on the ISEC Acts 1 and 2

And welcome you guys to the fold.
I think we should conceder the

ISEC ACT 03 - The production of more Revelation Class warships to deter the threat nuclear weapons against member nations - the Revelation Class Warship from orbit can lay down strategic firepower anywhere in the world. This is precisely what we need to secure our future against expansionalist elements in China, Japan, Korea, SE Asia and Russia. And it maybe a useful deterent to New members of the IF as our single 2 Revelation Class cruisers can't be everywhere at once even if they have global reach.

I recommend the dedication of new shipyards to produce 1 - 2 new Capital Class Warships a year.
Greater Beijing
17-10-2004, 21:12
As it is we vote no - we agree only if the act can be amended to represent the true nature of this Union, that of peaceful exploration. For every warship produced we should produce a Capital Class Exploration Cruiser with longrange independant capabilities.

On ISEC ACT 03A - we vote Y

After reviewing the nationstate of the Roman Republic and the region under his managment I would like to concider a Vote on his acceptance - even if Act 02 hasnt been passed yet.

A totalitarian disctatorship isnt exactly the most compatible form of naitonal administration conducive to a peace loving space exploration mission - his ideas may conflict with the primary charter of the international fleet

I vote against accepting him on the council and recommend we not accept his contribution of 30 billion until we can figure out where he really stands.

I dont think any other name fully embodies the organization - we will keep the name probably and it will just have to be made clear on your thread that your Coalition has nothing to do with hte International Fleet or this Conference.

Exetonia agrees with this stance wholeheartedly but, at the same tiime dnates several trillion dollars from the ESA researc fund. We also offer production any of our space fairng vessels for a zero price to further peacefull expansion into space. I also put this idea up for a vote

4:
The Exetonian International Sapce station should be sued as a preliminary staging point for space exploration as it is already completed. Further more, Mars I when she is completed should become the staging point for all beyond system exploration.
Siesatia
17-10-2004, 21:56
This tends to lead to confusion, such as, lets say. "Noobishgodmodcountry4000000 declares war on ISEC" than we will have no idea who they're talking about, and both sets of members will respond. Now, I am trying to take over ISEC (My ISEC, not yours) and may change it to RISEC, adding 'Restored' to the front. But I will have to see if our current leader wants me to take over for a while. If it doesn't work, oh well, we will probobly have to work it out later. Oh, and ISEC (Mine) has similar goals as yours I believe.
Zhejiang
17-10-2004, 22:11
goodluck I dont think this has been done by any other union in 2030 so we are fairly safe from some n00b war threat or the threat from any one nation with a space program because we could no doubt defend ourselves.

Zhejiang votes Y on the use of Mars I and the Exetonia Station.
We are currently expanding our Shipyards at Gateway station above Zhejiang. We could use what help you can provide in the new Shipyards proposed in 3A perhaps your station should be the site of the new Shipyards.

Actually Zhejiang would be in favor of Exetonia keeping its funds inturn for its station being the site of our next Shipyard - dedicated to the construction of Capital Class ships.

ISEC Act 4A - Y

They could not hope to win such a war against the International Fleet and the Democratic Union of Asia - if they get n00bish we'd be justified in ignoring them. No problem here I dont think.

They have agreed to reverse a unanimous vote to declassify and sell and stealth combat spaceplane if inturn we could offer them an aid package to reimburse them for thier loss.

We require a second council to okay this relief package - in turn we may get the desired result of them pulling this weapons sytem out of the open market.

Excellent then this can be done without the consensus of the council.

and the vote is not neccesary - as long as it doenst interfere with the charter I'm sure the other members wont have a problem with it - it actually fowards primary charter interest so yeah . Ill let them know

International Space Exploration Conference - IF Orbital Guard Resolution 01:
We have allowed ample time for a response, this is beyond insulting, bordering on dangerous - It is the opinion of the Luna I administration and foreign afairs office that these nations are irrational and incapable of negotiations or a peaceful settlement - I move the ISE Conference of the International Fleet to an immediate vote to clear the IF for the removal of these devices by force.

It will have to be voted on - but perhaps we could settle for the name The Space Exploration Conference of the International Fleet or just the plain old International Fleet Council.

On the proposed final resolution of this thread we vote in favor of a new name - the Space Exploration Council of the International Fleet or SECIF
In turn for the immdiate asset aquisition of 5 trillion credits - the ISEC or International Space Exploration Coalition with have sole rights to its name.

On the condition that we maintain open communications and a nonagreesion treaty between our organizations so as long as our charters do not conflict.

N to act 1. We need a reason for requesting that soviet aligned nations disband their space programs, as we are allied or at least on good terms with many. We should instead seek co-operation. OOC: I havent been filled in on this one...

N to act 2, also. In our experience, such systems end up in a bureaucratic nightmare that totally stifles the growth and influence of the organisation.

Abstain to act 3. The exact cost of such a program must be clearly stated to us, as it is our suspicion that the majority of the funding will have to come from our pockets as the largest nation currently participating.

Y to act 4.

Y to ISEC-SECIF Resolution 01

Siesatia would like to buy the ISEC name back, in exchange for 5 trillion dollars, and yes, I CAN afford that, because I have a 10 Trillion GDP. The Treaty we would sign would forbid this orginization from using ISEC as their name.

OOC: No way could you afford that. GDP does not equal the amount of money you have available to spend. Considering your tax-rate, you have $3.6 trillion in your yearly budget. Even if you were going to spend all of that, you would have to literally cut government expenditure to zero, therefore eliminating any government social welfare programs, educational facilities and your armed forces...

Perhaps you could devote 10% of the budget to it anually, but it would take you 14 years to pay off...assuming the economy grows during such a time under the strain of having to pay that debt off. Even if it doesnt, you still have to add interest onto it every year...so it just keeps growing. Maybe in 30 years you might have it paid off. Or maybe not. Look at how some nations in Africa are doing...not well.

More than likely you've just crippled your nation with a massive amount of debt.

To see the origional Thread, just follow the link in my Sig.
