Current Map of Azerbaijan (http://www.smurof.com/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=264)

Following the invasion of eastern Azerbaijan, the western state is holding elections in order to prove its democratic credentials. None of the parties were 'vetted', and Momanguise had no part in the cadential selection process. The elections are taking place in all of the Free State, and all civilians over the age of 18 are eligible to vote. The current Popular government is rebuffing any critism which might come from the Soviet Socialist Republic of Azerbaijan, where there are not votes at all.

The Popular Front of Azerbaijan

A co-alition of the Communist, Socialist and centralist partys. Widely anticipated to win the vote, it advocates government control of all industry. Smaller shops would be allowed to operate on non profit lines. It wants to stregnthen ties with both Momanguise and Russian Forces.

The Islamic Party of Azerbaijan

Advocates weakening ties with Momanguise and Russian Forces and stregnthening ties with the Islamic world. Would take over industry, and introduce law based upon the Koran.

Official Statement, Imperial Government

We are willing to donate a single battalion (850 men) of peacekeepers to the area. We hope that these will help the elections to pass smoothly, as the chaos created by invasion always leave a gap open for insurgents to exploit. They would also further reter any foreign invasion of the Free State.

OOC: Could RP the Islamic party really well.

ooc: Drum Gods, so could I but then again I'm not an imperialist plus I'm more inclined to trust myself. Nothing personal.

ic: Praetonia, we gladly would recieve these personel. Though we have easily enough soldiers in the region to prevent any insurgency, a token force in the capital of Yevlax would be excellent.

OOC: Sorry just suggested it because for the past 6 months all the books ive been read have been about Islamic Militancy and the rise of Islamism and its history. It would not have been an RP involving Drum Gods itself.

Looks like Democracy in Azerbaijan is proving itself. Pity that Democracy is a flawed system, eh?
Comrade Nikita Brehznelov
Comrade Foreign Minister of the PSRH

ooc: There is a more minor party, the Islamist party. The Islamic party is not quite so radical. I didn't include it in the main poll simply because it would be open to election fraud otherwise.

It is also a pity that those who claim to govern for the people and yet practice dictatorship sound so false is it not?

Tania Ormov, Chair of Foriegn Affairs

The only way the people can properly be governed is with a benevolent dictator. Democracy only leads to Fascism.

History speaks overwise my friend.

In other words, bump.

bump

Early morning bump.

and again

BUMP!

OoC: Actualy I find both parties extremely flawed and utterly wrong, pitty there isn't a somewhat...standard party in the nation. Say, Momanguise, would you allow Dumpsterdam to fund a capitalistic party? ;)

ooc: The lack of a capitalist party is due to, erm, lack of foresight on my behalf, coupled with the economic and social instability of the country. Next election there will be a capitalist party.

ooc: The lack of a capitalist party is due to, erm, lack of foresight on my behalf, coupled with the economic and social instability of the country. Next election there will be a capitalist party.

OoC: My guess is that won't be another election with either the commies or the islamic radicals in power, their both very reluctant to give into democracy.

ooc: There will be no coup, if that is what you are worried about. The Free State was founded in direct opposition to the Soviet Socialist Republic of Azerbaijan presided over by Russian Forces. ooc, I will ensure that it remains democratic.

OoC: Good, I'll be watching this carefully and next year I definatly know who's gona win the ellections. ;)

ooc: Shhh....that's the wonderful thing about democracy! Everyone can win! Except in America, where only one group looses. The electorate.

The Mora Tauan Soviet Socialist Republic is willing to deploy its troops already stationed in Azerbaijan to protect polling boothes from Russian attacks. We also endorse the socialist candidates running for office.

The Red Proletariat Army militia finds it is a great time to stop the elections and embarras the new government. RPA Militia have been kidnapping several candidates in parties as well as start drive by shootings against polling boofs to scare the citizens away. A United Soviet Republic is the aim for the RPA.

Thats it, the RPA can kiss Dumpsterdam's ass and the guided missles of our airforce too.

Expect enforcement of the ellections by force from Momanguise and if not from him then you will get it from me.

Secret In Character

'This is an outrage, the so called RPA is either funded by Russian Forces or at least taking inspiration from them. However, if Moscow thinks we can be intimidated into halting elections then they are in for an unpleasant surprise.'

Grigory Akmet nodded as he received the Premiers message. As the head of security for new Popular Front Government, his job was to ensure that elections were not derailed by any upstart insurgents. He was pacing the cell of a known RPA member; information was being gleaned out of him by any method necessary.

'Who are you taking your orders from?' Akmet barked, as he kicked the man bowing pitifully on the floor of the dank cell. The man was hooded and cuffed, and he hadn't eaten for three days.

'We know him as Steel.' The man croaked through a dusty throat, his lungs straining against the man of three broken ribs. 'We know not who he is. We have never seen him, though he is not an Azeri.'

Akmet laughed before landing a heavy blow on the mans face. His victim whimpered as he rolled in agony on the floor. He spat once on his face, 'Not good enough. You were found with Russian weapons. Russian insignia. Russian transmissions records...' his voice tailing away as he deliberated. He finally spoke again. 'You may well be telling the truth. The Russians have always shown themselves to be as cunning as wolves, and as equally lacking in their morality. However, you killed a child. Eight years old, going with her parents to see democracy at work. You killed her. If it was up to me you would be dead by now.'

He went back to pacing, running a hand over the damp brickwork, winking at a rat which scurried from the darkness. 'You have already betrayed your comrades. You have given us a list of fifty operatives, we are picking them up as you speak and they will receive equal treatment to yourself. Before long, this whole pathetic network will be destroyed and we will find something that will link you to Moscow. As for yourself, you are to be interned. Permanently. Prepare to see the last daylight, ever.'

He strode over and shut firmly the thin shaft of light, before leaving the chamber. In the darkness, the prisoner howled blind against the entombing walls.

OOC: *sighs* Most people in the NS world are imperialists really aren't they... Russian Forces could be considered technically an Imperialist for invading Azerbaijan and spreading communism etc (I'm using as an relevant example RF thats all)... If you want oil you're going to have to trade... and you probably should contact your Communist friends (if you have any) about your oil supplies etc...

Now, lets stop this thread hijack shall we...

slap a tag

ooc:

First thing, this is my 1000 post! W00ters! Am I wasting it on this post? Yes I am.

Second, technically? Technically? RF's actions are blatantly imperialist. Again, ooc.

He can claim spreading world communism, which a lot of communists would claim is not imperialistic in nature... I was seeking to avoid arguement... thats why I put it the way I did...

Btw congrats on the benchmark...

ooc: Thanks. +1

As far as I can see, imperialism is imperialism wether dressed up in red or under the eagle of facsism. Call it what you will, 'enforced liberation' is still an anexation.

*plans assassination of Islamic Party* Oh, congrats on your posts ; )

OOC: I'm an Imperialist, but a war over Azawatchit would be hugely costly for little gain. Anyway:

IC: The 5th Peacekeeping battalion had established a camp a few miles from the town of Ganca. The 850 men, led by a Colonel Princius Marius, were a mere token force, but would still try to find a use for themselves. The Colonel sat fuming in his tent as he heard news of attacks on polling stations in the city,

"In the last attack 8 people were killed, including 2 children. The attackers just got away. They're most likely attempting to derail the elections, sir. The Momnguise seem convinced that they're being supplied from across the border by Russian Forces."

The Colonel sat thinking for a few minutes. Once he had decided what to do, he snapped from the trnace-like state in which he had appeared, "Ok, I want our troops to move into the city to guard polling stations. We expect snipers, so tell the troops to wear their helmets, but no tanks."

"Yes, sir!" Shouted the Battalion Major, standing to attention. He turned on the spot and began to walk out of the tent, when the Colonel called from behind him,

"Oh, and tell the Momanguise to strenthen their border guard."

"Right away, sir," came the reply almost at once, and the major kept walking.

A few hours later a company of troops had surrounded one of the largest polling stations in the city. They tried to put the civilians at ease by talking to them and giving them chocolate. Most of the civilians, however, were glad to see them there; they were far more afraid of the militants than they were of Praetonian troops. The troops were a little nervous, however, as the 5th had never gone into battle before. Their training at been extensive and first rate, but this was no substitute for actual combat. They simply stood and waited.

OOC: TMG: Why is an IC actiona thread hyjack?

The Azeri government is unwilling to close the border with the SSR of Azerbaijan, however evidence is being widely used to track down such militants. We thank again Praetonia for his support.

ooc: Sorry for such a short post.

The RPA was outraged when knwoing that several of their comrades have been taken prisoner and are being interrogated. In response to the action, the RPA captured a minister of the new azerbaijani state and demands that Momanguise will let the prisoners go or he shall be executed.

In a Azerbaijani town

It is 10:00pm. The RPA is free to leave their cells and strike once again. Momanguisian troops have been seen walking around a electoral building with light armoured vehicles. The RPA militia jump out of the sewers, armed with Ak's, SVD's and RPG's. The Men with the RPG's and SVD's find the tallest buildings so they can keep the enemy pinned down. They are the ones to strike first while the Assualt riflists storm the building.

One of the RPG men quickly stood up and fired his rocket which hit an APC, sending nearby soldiers to the ground. The Snipers then carefully fired at the guards. The Assualt Riflists were given the all clear sign and made their way to the electoral building. Several Azerbaijani republican guards stormed out with their rifles to see whats going on. Quickly they gunned down. The Assualt riflists threw Molotov cocktails into the windows. Screaming from the workers who were counting the votes could be heard all over the town. Immeditaly the RPA troops pulled out and looked for the closest sewers. The RPG mean and snipers made it back safely but several Assualt riflists were killed when Momanguisian troops entered the scene. With tremendous firepower from the Momanguisian Army, the RPA Riflists were gunned down.

From Moscow:
We Claim no responsibility for the actions of the RPA. This is a clear message that the people of Azerbaijan wish to be united as a Communist state. Like Vietnam, the democratic Republic of Azerbaijan shall fall.

ooc: *cough*godmod*cough*

Seriously, I'll let it go this once, but you can't just announce that you have 'kidnapped a minister', especially seeing as he would be under my protection. Do not, and I repeat do not do this again. Also, your little insurgency will not last long. In Iraq, they have around one soldier per three hundred Iraqis. In Azerbaijan, I have one soldier per four Azeris. Again, do not make this sort of assumption again. The Azeri forces are under my command, therefore you do not have the right to impose causulties upon them.

ic: There was a massive demonstration inside of Yevlax today as two hundred thousand people, half the population of the capital, took to the streets to protest against the insurgency that has claimed almost a hundred civilian lives. During the demonstration, word was filtered to the crowd that all of the insurgents either killed or captured had been identified as Eastern Azeri's, and in the minds of the crowd it was Russia who was to blame for these attrocities.

'Down with Russia!' Rang slogans, though some extended to 'Kill all of the Bastards!'. As the elections themselves came to an end, however, it transpired that the Popular Front Party had won the vote by almost ninety percent. This is a tremendous boost to the incumbent government, and parties were being thrown throughout the night, and the dark sky of Yevlax was lit by a tremendous fire works display.

The new government immediatly announced that they would not negotiate with terrorists, and have awarded the kidnapped minister Abu Akka the order of the people, with many saying this is effectively a posthumous award.

Meanwhile, huge numbers of terrorists have been arrested and are being interned. Sofar, not one native Western Azerbaijani has been found among them, and this has only gone to fuel the public hatred and certanty that the Russian government is directly responsible for these terrorist actions.

OCC: Its a minister who gives a damn. I apologise if its a godmod to you but its a small building and a couple of soldiers wiped out. Also you are tracking down all of its members so we're sorta even if you get me. Let this pass and next time i'll RP a insurrection move next time k?

IC: The RPA, already has lost numerous amounts of members who are hiding in the streets. The rest retreat into the highlands or forests to regroup and regain its strength. The RPA know it is harder to blend among the crowd due to a small population and 400,000 Momanguise soldiers. Due the RPA demands not being met, the minister was executed by being shot in the head and was filmed. The footage then was mailed to Georgia with some teeth and fingers. It had a message with it as well saying:

The blood of the corporates is on your hands. The people will rise up and a united Azerbaijan shall come! Leave Azerbaijan Momanguisians for your childrens sake.

ooc: Actually it was my fault, I am sorry. It was early in the morning and I was in something of a bad mood. Sorry again for the accusation.

ic: A day of national mourning was announced for the murdered minister, Abu Akka. A minutes silence was held, and his widow made an emotional appeal on the national television for his killers to be hunted down. So far, however, there have been no futher terrorist attrocities and the Government has good reason to believe that its counter insurgency operations have been successful.

Russian Forces itself is having trouble with rebels in the Soviet Azerbaijan. Rebels have took to the streets once again in Baku but have garrisoned themselves only to be eliminated by Russian firepower. It is believed though that soem members of the RPA join these rebels and give details to the Russian government, making it easier to root out these rebels. The Russian government is pleased to see the popular movement winning. They are friendly to the Russian government unlike the islamists who wish for their country to turn feudalistic. These rebels in Soviet Azberbaijan are possibly islamic themselves and are part of the movement in democratic Azerbaijan as well.

Any link between the Islamic Party and the rebels in the Soviet occupied territory has been denied, though they have expressed their support for their comrades and their brothers in arms. However, the fact that a secular government has taken power in the Free State means that any unproved link is conjecture and therefore irrelevant.

We will annihilate the islamists, wherever they may be. That will not seem irrelevant once we search azerbaijan inside out to find these terrorists. As for the RPA, Nothing yet can be done. However we will move another 100,000 troops in. Feel free to match our move.

The move will be matched with two Ordance Armys. No more details are available.

OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM RED TIDE:
We comdemn both the Russian Federation and Momanguise for trying to set up puppet goverments within Azerbaijan. We will do nothing to hinder you except issue a condemnation of the blatant imperialism by both sides. That is all
END STATEMENT!

OOC:There goes my leader again.

Puppet government? I beg to differ, my esteemed comrade. The Free State is a democratic state under Azeri government, which recieved an overwhelming mandate from the people.

RTN! BREAKING NEWS DEVELOPMENT!
"Today in a surprise motion, the Supreme Commander declared that the RTS 'Hrimfaxi' is being moved within 130 miles of the Azeri coastline(or whatever coast line is closest to it) this puts the currently split and occupied nation of Azerbajaini well in range of the 'Hrimfaxi's' ballistic missiles and fighter aircraft. The 'Hrimfaxi' will remain submerged at missile launch depth unless called upon to launch its fighter aircraft(which it can only do when surfaced). The Ballistic Missiles will be armed with the conventional 'Burst Warheads' instead of nuclear, biological, or chemical weapons. The exact coordinates of the 'Hrimfaxi's' location are unknown. The Supreme Commander said the Hrimfaxi will remain there unless the current two ocupying nations withdraw OR the 'Hrimfaxi' is needed elsewhere."

ooc: The Azeri coastline is in the caspian. So as it is a closed sea I don't quite see how you have managed it unless you have bases there.

OOC:The it will be stationed as close as possible to Azerbaijan. it should STILL wind up within ballistic missile and fighter range either way.

Get Lost Red Tide. Im in no mood for godmodding crap.

OOC:Godmodding? GODMODDING?! Well dear sir dont accuse someone of godmodding without an example of godmodding in this thread.

ooc: Erm, I don't actually see how he is Godmodding. Unstable and irrational as his actions may be, I don't think he is doing anything unfeasable.

OOC: Dont get worked up, just let his sub sit there, wasting fuel and money. If he fires then paste him.

OOC:Money... yes, fuel, no... its a nuclear sub.

The government of the United States of Independent Hitmen, notes with disapproval the decision by Red Tide to move a ballistic missile submarine so close to the already somewhat unstable region.

We feel that this will most likely cause an increase in tensions that is definetely not needed.

The President wishes for the government of Red Tide to reconsider its decision and move the submarine back away from Azeri waters.

Vice-President Simon Bull, on behalf of President Anderson.

We see Red Tide's action as imperialist aggression and we believe others with common sense ought to do too.

OOC: Btw, he is well within his rights to ignore you, you are somewhat godmodding by placing a sub in a closed sea without so much as an explanation of how.

OOC:IT IS NOT MOVING INTO A CLOSED SEA! It is being moved into the Mediteranean(is that how you spell it? I always have trouble spelling that name). Even when placed inside the Mediteranean, Azerbajaini should still be inside the range of the 'Hrimfaxi's' ballistic missiles. Although it will be safe from the 2 sqaudrons of fighter aircraft that are aboard the sub(each sqaudron consists of 6 PX-108 'Anubis' fighters). And for future reference the 'Hrimfaxi' is a cross over of a Support Aircraft Carrier and a Ballistic Missile Sub(it is quite large and can easily be spotted on sonar... although the EXACT location is hard to pinpoint thanks to a special scrambler that only lets the sonar indicate the general direction of the sub).

OCC: And your fleet is in Range of my Subs and the NWO's fleets. You are doing a non wise move. Momanguise, this guy just wants to blow us both up. I wouldn't mind to make an alliance to kick this guys but for a short time.

ooc: I'm content to just let him sit there for now. Handing us the rope, as you like to say. However, if he uses it then I may start to feel provoked...

ooc: erm....why?

OCC: I don't know... im wondering if you have anymore to say.

ooc: Not that I can see, shall we just let this die?

OOC:Money... yes, fuel, no... its a nuclear sub.
Nuclear subs still use fuel, just not very quickly.
