I get Pnemonia, so I don't get on. I offer Cotland money last month for Malaysia, he refuses ( and knowing me, I'd let him keep his missile installations ). Some weeks later, happening to be when I am sick, he sells it to even someone who knows I was trying to get it.

Dude, that was last month. I found out a couple of days ago that I had more land than I "needed", so I got rid of a lot of colonies.

Bjorn, is this acceptible?

Decree 12: Realizing that Earth II is a phenominally active Earth, it is imperative that all nation-states within this planet play a vital role. Mimicking real-life politics, one can easily see that nations, even small ones, play vital roles. In order to establish such as a coherence here it is vital that we too adopt a policy of activity. Insomuch as Earth II will be concerned all nations should be active participants. This is not to say that attendance is required or roleplaying every day is required. However, a nation that joins and roleplays nothing or contributes nothing should not be allowed to horde land. Therefore, if nations that join but make no significant contributions to Earth II, their land may be allowed to be claimed by other nations, without their consent, through a well-playing and well-done roleplay. Nation contribution will be defined as no activity inside of 60 days. Members will be notified one week prior to their reaching 60 days and should they not respond or post, they shall be considered Decree 12. The concept of "Claim Land & Run Away" shall not be the staple point of Earth II. The limits imposed upon the claiming of land that is held by inactive players will be of the following. First and foremost, the claiming MUST be done with an RP, no questions asked. Secondly, nations who are not part of Earth II must RP as well but as an insurgent or rebel force. Thirdly, if a nation under this decree truly wishes to participate, they can prove it by starting over, from scratch. Nations who are a part of Earth II and were never involved within a single RP or action of Earth II will be considered inactive. Nations in the past who have been active but have dropped out will be considered "on the fence." This goes into effect on post #2336 but is modified in posts #7177 and #7xxx.

Using this (http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/middle_east_and_asia/israel_pol01.jpg) map, I suggest that we split Israel just over where it says "1950 Armistice Line" and under Gaza, in a straight line to the westernmost part of the Palestine border under Hebron. Anything south (IE Negev), I get. You take what you want (Gaza strip, West Bank, something else?), and anyone else take the rest. I really don't care as long as I get Negev. Deal?

Because we felt that there would always be someone, somewhere who missed out on a claim because they weren't on and that we had no control over that.

Well, I don't think one day is unreasonable...if we're active, then we'll be online at least once a day. Plus, the way this is set up, I need to be online 24 hours a day (which I can't be) just to get the land I may actually need.

Case in point: everyone knows that I want Vatican City, since it's squarely inside my capital (actually, it's more of a suburb of Rome, but I digress). If Earth II was RL, the minute Vatican City became available, Rome would occupy it immediately, since it wouldn't want unrest (or even a hostile power) to occupy land right in the heart of the Roman world. This would happen regardless of whether or not the Emperor would be asleep, since there would presumably be Roman officials (probably border officials) able to keep watch on the territory 24/7, because that's their job. Within minutes, the officials can immediately alert the government who can then move in. The Romans wouldn't wait for, say, the Emperor to wake up to move in (because he'd probably be notified) and have someone else to potentially snag the territory and perhaps create a conflict Rome doesn't need.

(I can also make the argument that absolutely NOBODY would be able to enter Vatican City without getting through me first, since you'd have to cross my territory just to occupy it, and believe me, I'm not going to sit by idly while that happens)

Now, I don't have that capability (and neither does anyone else, for that matter), since I need to sleep and eat and study (not necessarily in that order :D), and that should be accommodated. I don't think it's too much to ask for people to wait a day before their claim can be "finalized" because if someone is active enough on or cares enough about Earth II, they'll be online at least once a day. Other Earths have a window and it works well for them, so I think it's time we did too.

We can also claim our rightful heritage, because we are one of the two real Muslim nations, and we can claim a religious right. Besides, we didnt go desecrating holy sites, which is a reason to keep the Technate and yourselves out of there.

Cotland-What about this:

I get West Bank, Northern, and Haifa on that map, and you get the rest (Southern/Negev, Gaza, Central, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem) We split Jerusalem, and perhaps we both agree to make our central government a different city (Tel Aviv and Haifa would work)

Dude, keeping us out of the Holy Land will get you alot of enemies. Mainly the fact that we are the largest Muslim nation in the world (the more radical elements of the Technate have been subdued by the Imperialists, as well as the Caliphate, which is now based in New Zealand, and the Republicans. Carthage now has partial democracy and religious freedom).

As it is my right to reclaim the Jewish lands.

The whole thing about terrorist attack on the Dome of Rock(operation Jerchio thread) was carried out by a rogue element of the Panthean Army. Yes i know it sounds like a Tom Clancy novel and pretty soon you will see a novel based off of the Brotherhood of Nod terrorist organization. Because we are that dam famous. But the government holds no responibility for that action.

We will hunt down the leaders of Nod and i will asure you that they will be brought to justice for their acts...no promises though:D

We greatly disagree with that Middle East split.

And remember, we have a border with Israel, so we could easily send in soldiers. Not that I think we will, but if we see that we cannot have control of Jerusalem (which not only has a spiritual importance to our people, but since it is one of the largest cities in the Middle East it is a vital market), tensions in that area may rise.

Inactivity. We went through all the steps to see if he was there, but he wasn't, so we took his land. If he comes back, he has no basis on which he can get his land back. If we wanted, we could give him back his land, but we don't HAVE to.

Also, Unification Day ceremonies, the celebration of Elephanti Independence (its been around 1 year on Earth II for me) will hopefully come soon. We would encourage every nation with an invite (coming later, but including everyone we do not have a flag act against [see sig for link to check])

As part of this, Hiraz e-Mumman, the most powerful Sultan, will be assassinated in Lebanon beforehand, so I can bring in a new dominant family. However, I am not planning any drastic trickery at the celebration.

Another part of this, for my allies, will be the opening of New Riyadh. My idea behind it is a realistic wargame situation, but a smaller, permanently existing one.

To everyone else:

I'm going to need someone to take the role of the Bolivians in my thread, The Siege of Bolivia (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=453616). The basics is this: Bolivia has fallen under the rule of multiple biker gangs. Two of those gangs- The Warriors of Bolivia and The Purifiers- have united to form a "Bolivian Confederate Army" featuring some 500,000 soldiers carrying non-military grade machine guns, about 100,000 of which are well-trained (since the Carthaginians trained them). They're more of a militia than an actual army, but a well-trained one. I should also mention that not *all* of the Bolivians are in support of the Confederate Army, given the country's recent turmoils. The Purifiers have also been accused of kidnapping, torturing, raping and finally killing more than 20,000 foreigners (most of them Romans), hence the operation- The Warriors were trying to cover it up since they're allied with the Purifiers. More information is in the thread.

Lay-Right now crutches are not bad. Especially because I get to be late to all my classes. I actually feel pretty good, except I may need surgery. There's a little piece of something in my leg, if its bone, they have to take it out. If it isnt bone, then they leave me with a piece of crap in my leg. But plenty of people on E2 and people I know in general have been through worse, and possibly uglier accidents (a dislocated knee isnt pretty, for those who have not had the dubious honor of seeing one), so I cant really complain.

TKT: Hmm...I think at this point, I can't give up much without dropping a whole Sultanate, but I will offer you 2-3 choices from this list:

Socotra (off Yemen in Gulf of Aden)
Lakshadweep Is.
Andaman and Nicobar Is.
My piece of Antarctica
Goa state in India

I would give you Iranian land, but I just gave aqay a bunch of it.
Also, if the above options arent that exciting, I can give you Lebanon.

I tend not to have much of an opinion on presidents who served before I was born, like the Gipper, but I like him better than many.

As a political science major I am required to have an opinion on presidents, past, current, and future. As a conservative, I obviously am not going to give much to the Democrat presidents of the times and more to the Republican presidents, such is the nature of my beliefs. However, I must give due credit to FDR as a truly great leader, despite being one of the most socialist presidents of the modern era. Personally my favorite presidents are Teddy Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln, and Mr. Reagan.

TR was definitely a president with balls, something we need with ring-a-ding-kid Bush at the helm!

Lincoln saw the necessity to keep the union intact and did not falter in the face of alternative factions (something Federalist 10 warns about).

Reagan was just the monster president who took shit from no one and took the Soviet Union head on, balls to the walls, guns blazing, and, in words of Tony Montana, "Buried those cockroaches!"

Now in terms of FDR, I can respect him as he was one of the few leaders who actually saw the evil of Hitler before anyone else and warned against giving him any concessions (way to go Chamberlain). I can also respect his dealings with Stalin against the greater enemy (Germany and Japan) and as much as I am not a fan of many of the New Deal programs I can understand his sentiment in doing them (the depression) and the necessity to get the US out of the depression at all costs. Sadly it took WWII to end that depression. I cannot forgive him though for selling out at Yalta and allowing the Soviets to imprison most of Germany and allowing them to get as far as they did. They're not to be trusted.

Kennedy I can slightly respect, if only for his hard stance on communists, though I am not entirely sure how many people in his administration were really that against them. I cannot forgive him for selling us out on the Cuba Missile Crisis and retiring the missiles in Turkey to get the Soviets to get them out of Cuba nor can I forgive his ineffectiveness in dealing with Cuba (nor can I with Eisenhower either).

Naturally Jefferson, Madison, Adams, Washington, all of those great man way back when were nothing less than sheer great. It is unfortunate that their warnings were never heeded, especially Washington's points of never getting involved with foreign countries and his warning against partisan politics, which I don't think anyone had any control over, that was inevitable.

Now as far as Dubya goes. Yeah I voted for him in 2004 (was too young in 2000) but because the other guy was as much of a dumbass as he was. I honestly cannot stand anything this current administration does nor can I stand anyone in it. They're all a bunch of short-term morons who are fucking this country so badly it isn't funny.

My worst presidential picks? Carter and his floppy stance on human rights went to show just how unqualified he was to be the leader of this country when he put the human rights of nations outside of our borders ahead of our own issues. Clinton and his horrific dealings selling out this country to the highest bidder throughout the '90s. LBJ for never setting the doctrine to win the Vietnam War. He never pushed ahead victory and got involved, never with the aim to win. Trumman giving the Soviets the bomb and allowing the government to be polluted with communists. Dubya for his, well I said it there and I'll rant more and more as time goes on.

I am impartial on Daddy Bush. He started the chain reaction of disarmament, which is a concept I loathe (obviously). I am impartial on Kennedy I guess, even though above I put him above. I am impartial on Nixon. I am impartial on Eisenhower.

I would like to make this distinction though. I am not a neo-con, those nutbuckets are ruining this country. I am a traditional, hard-line conservative (fiscally, socially, and militarily). I am also not part of the Christian Right (hell I'm agnostic) but I cannot object to the presence of "under God" in the pledge nor can I object to the presence of "In God We Trust" on the money we have. In fact I find it apalling that those two issues are being contested and I find it beyond traitorous that the 9th Circuit out West has banned the Pledge...I do this because, technically, America is a democratic-republic, whereby the laws must benefit the majority. Over 80% of this country believes in God. That's a majority. Passing the laws out West benefit the minority and go against everything that America stood for. I use past tense because in today's day and age, whereby Christmas trees are holiday trees, whatever it is that we stand for, it isn't anything. This country has been wussified and I am ashamed of it.

Heh . . . i must say, i am fairly impressed. it is not common to find such a similarily hard-line conservative (im technically the "christian right": oh no, the terror!) , very much so on something as extremely left-tiltled as NS. In the words of C.S. Lewis:
"Friendship, or even respect, comes from the moment one person says to the other 'what, you too? i though i was the only one!"

Although, as a conservative, i must say i can't much understand your admiration of Lincoln. he repeatedly broke the constitution, completely disregarded human rights (when learning of Sherman's rape of the south, he replied "i find no wrong in his actions. all suffer in war") and turned the U.S. government into a huge, bloated corrupt mass. pretty much the antithesis of of conservatism.
he gets the same wack prestige FDR gets "strong leader who lead the country to victory in war." except they both socialized america, left the country in a worse shape then when the came in, and were actually a detriment to the effectivness of the military. Of course, FDR did beat Hitler (undeniable props) but Lincoln fought a war against conservatives who were within the constituional rights. yes, slavery is an abomination, but that is NOt why he fought the war. the slaves werent freed until after he died, and he even said before and after the election that "abolition is not my priority, opinion or course of action". FDR fought evil, Lincoln fought conservatism

that should spark some debate. maybe unneccessary. but, I too am a policy major, and not knowing when to keep my trap shut is actually a course requirement

SNOW DAY!

If you go by the political compasses, I'm almost dead center, if only because I don't quite fit in with the Republican view personally. I would be a Republican for lack of a better option I guess. Living in Massachusetts and not liking Kerry was dangerous for a while, but at least that time is gone. I cant stand Ted Kennedy, Menino, or most local politicians. Makes you wonder if monarchy wouldn't be all that bad.

But all the PC crap of today really does tick me off. Seeing a Christmas Tree is less an infringement of your rights than having Jehovah's witnesses continuosly pester you (no offense to any JW here)

To avoid going on a rant that makes no sense at all, one of my puppets (which are all alternative histories of my main nation) got 520th most extreme today. My main nation is frequently upwards of 2000 in economic ones.

Lincoln was very Machiavellian (my hero). Machiavelli stated that, above all, the Prince must keep the state intact and at all costs. Should he need to be brutal and violate rights to save the state then so be it but he should not do it 1 minute longer than is necessary. Lincoln did just that and did not do it 1 minute longer than necessary. Oh yeah we all know that war wasn't about slavery hell I am just as much against it as you are, it is an abomination, though I doubt my reasoning against slavery is the same as yours (I can't post it here, too unpc). Also have you read Federalist 10? It deals with factions and such (prob. the best US political writing ever) and that can sum up also why I like Lincoln.

BTW do you have AOL/AIM? ;;; TheUnforgiven57 = me ;;;

Best scene in Dirty War = when the second van is on the move and the SO19 guys in the Jaguar just back up across the road, out of no where, and put like 15 bullets into the windshield in a perfect horizontal line, killing the driver and the guy with his hand on the button. Damn that's awesome!

Varsola: I didnt doubt you were there, I just wished you weren't.

Lay (and everyone else so I don't have to answer it again:The plague is officially gone, although if other people wouldnt mind having it pop up again at bad times, that would be nice. One of the most important things it did, however, was show the ethnic inequality in Elephantum. Sunni Arabs were spared from the brunt of the disease, but poorer Shiite Persians and Hindus did not have access to the same medical care, and suffered. However, there was no revolution, partly because people were too busy sprouting buboes to go fight.

Lebanon is a completely different thing, an Iraq-esque insurgency, not a revolution. They did kill Hiraz e-Mumman, Sultan of Bahrain, who was important, but, to put it simply, there are 13 (including Israeli) other Sultans who are equally important in theory. However, his death creates a power vacuum, which will be filled by the al-Khalifa family (actually the RL ruling family in Bahrain.

Palau simply seceded, and at this point, going after 20,000 farmers on a tiny island in the middle of the Pacific isnt high on our priorities, especially with the UER backing them.

Thats what you get though when you are raised by a democrat mom and a republican Dad who listens to Limbaugh and watches Foxnews everyday

Voting for more republicans then Dems though cause the Dems in ohio suck!!!they can't even beat Bob Taft who is the worst governor in the US and the only governor that is recieving an F from interest groups. You know the democrats suck when they are thinking about running Jerry Springer for Gov

Speaking of elections,whataya guys think about McCain?

Personally, I think he's the only politician I could vote for president (even though I can't vote; there's always 2012 :D. Actually, there's the elections in 2010 as well...) Hillary is wacko (She's like Lieberman; blaming everything on Video Games), I doubt Condi would run (I wouldn't vote for her either), and I don't see any other possible people. However, the elections are still 2 1/2 years away, so who knows.

2008 will be the first time I can vote! I'd probably vote McCain, or whoever runs against Hilary. Mitt Romney will probably try for a nomination. I doubt he'll make it through the primaries, as he isn't a great candidate. Still better than most Massachusetts politicians IMO.

Aslo, would people mind if, instead of using the more common planes found in storefronts, I used RL planes that are very rare (Shin Meiwa flying boats for example), and possibly created an obscure plane storefront at some point? I ask here because this is the only place I rp.

I may have to check my military stats to see if my armed forces reflect that level of investment. Especially since it appears that the armed forces fill in for the police, as the UER spends nothing on law & order.
