Seconded...
Third...
Fuck, this is just when President Dorgan is off playing paratrooper in Australia. You can't have a party without a rock singing president! I guess that's a hint to get the RP moving...
Everybody knows what's coming up soon right? The annual RP that I always do?
I'll give you a hint:
FLEET WEEK 2008 @ LAYARTEB CITY
Yes that's right...It's coming and I'm going to host it from May 12 through May 18. Sign ups will be ready soon but remember, it's open to EVERYONE, regardless of how the Empire feels about you. Instructions will be in the thread. Basically the jist is this, you show off your navy, I show off my navy and some new toys, we all party in Layarteb City, the Emperor makes an epic speech of win, fun old time!
Here are past ones:

I'm not exactly new to Earth II ( I participated for a while as The Knight Templars) but I've been away for a long, long time. I checked the list and the maps a lot, but I wanted to double check to see if I could claim Slovenia and Hungary - I have a pretty good rp in mind, but I would like to know if it's open before I post
Holy cow. Welcome back. Welcome back. Sadly though both of those are in the hands of Infinacy [I haven't updated in some time sorry]. You could always ask him about them though.
I was just wondering, does everyone agree that my territory borders Prazinia's in Brazil, because it is hard to tell, but from looking at other maps, I think it does. Here's a map which proves it, with Prazinia's territory connected to mine just slightly.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Piaui_Municip_Teresina.svg
http://www.forsakenoutlaw.com/Graphics/Nation-States/Earth2/Maps/brazil.png
It's a small border but sure.
Well smoking weed finally bit me in the ass, although I didn't know police had such a passion of hatred against the plant.
The cop that I had constantly complained that the smell was giving her a headach (After I had been in several classes and not a single person had mentioned a thing) and I wasn't caught for a smell, just assosiation with someone who had been caught. Anyway, as this cop complained she carried on about why it's not fair for me to bring the substance into the school when people with prior convictions arn't allowed to live near the school...wait so am I to assume its not fair that I get to the kids in the school first or something?...I wasn't sure where she was going with that arguement. Then she proceeded to explain, at every given oppertunity, every little detail of something you would here from a propaganda video...ooo now arn't those fun tidbits of fear ads. After awhile of this it was obvious I was bored, by now I agreed with whatever she said...just didn't care anymore...and it all ended. But, the way it began would have to be the funniest, I sat in the office with my principal, a great guy that I was laughing with over a joke about how his job is just to sit on his ass and assure the weather will be ok (He was checking the weather and I had mentioned that his job seemed simple enough) and the officer walks in and immediatly assumes I must be laughing cause im high (Which mind you I wasn't very much) and she bursts angrily at me with "You think this is funny?", a stern look on her face.
Now this officer is a black women, now a white women or man for some reason I can talk to even a black dude you can get along with but she really was taking her job to the max, almost military. Then her phone rang with a ring tone that forced me to use every last strength in my body not to burst into laughter, it was an 80's pop tone...not sure of the title. But mind you when she asked if I thought it was funny I shut up quickly and got confused as fuck, now I understand my principal changing his tone to look more professional but she came in so quick she just seemed to shoot me on the spot and I just looked at her and fumbled over the word "What?" which couldn't of looked good.
But, sure its bad and now I have the system to deal with but in all even after being searched I still escaped with my pipe...took my ciggerettes and my lighter for some reason which I just didn't want to bother with, I had more at home and three other lighters as well. I still think though, $100 bucks im fine with for my fine but I have to go to court because it was possesion so that means I have to pretend to fight to pay them 100 bucks plus the complusory 40 court cost even though it would be easier for me to just say, yes im guilty take my money.
Not that I just understood anything you just wrote and I read it twice but yeah LAY OFF THE WACKY TABACKY!!!

Fluid time. He can be both places. The RP for Australia is a lot older than the RP would be for Fleet Week. I imagine it would either be done or over by the time Fleet Week rolled around, and, if not, who cares :).

I would like to but I have no fleet to register, I have no navy at the current moment. I could rent out mercenary ships but then the CSN navy would look like a bunch of rag tag pirates coming to a formal navy gathering. We have blueprint deisgns for navy ships and are prospecting any nation that would allow internationally small CSN ports to be built across the globe.
Also is there any land open in the ocean or touching a major body of water that I could claim to begin production of a navy?
(If I had been able to claim Adygea and Krasnodar I would have built a navy to sail the Medditerranean and oceans after it. >.<)

First, I'm sorry for the long absence, but I'm going to start a thread soon. Is there any anti-religious nation in Earth II controlling a part of Russia or of nearby Slavic countries? It'll be a long journey from there to Mato Grosso, and I intend to RP all of it instead of claiming it for granted.

I'll be keepin my eye on this Knight Templar guy as well...taken my Krasnodar territory, but at least now I can forcefully exact a claim ^.^. Not that im gunna, I would prefer friendly relations.
Prazinia, right now the chechen states are in a conflict that has an anti-religious (I.E. rebels who aren't fighting for an indepident chechen state but instead to rebuild the former soviet regime, which was VERY anti-religious. To the point of extermination of those who were seen as roadblocks to soviet progression, religious leaders and devote followers)
The chechen states would be all those territories that I claim which are around of cource Chechnya.
Also, my nation does basically what OK does but its seen only in major cities and area's that may have a prime locations. Hyrdo cells and natural gas, but I use alot of regular gasoline outside of that.
oil, and natural gas. No bio-fuels because it's Alaska.
Petrol, diesel and E85. What can I say? Having control over some of the world's largest oil and natural gas reservoirs (North Sea, Barents Sea) has its upsides.

03-05-2008, 15:45
I use same as Cot- Petrol, Diesel and various 'E' biofuels made with sugarcane, but hydrogen and gas are also quite popular in some regions, gas turbines especially for wheeled mining equipment (there are a lot of mines in the COH). All cars in the COH are actually Flex-Fuel by law, allowing biofuels and/or petrol/diesel to be used in the one tank.

I posted into the Sign-up thread. Also Layarteb, I'm in a conflict between the stated population in NS Page and a realistic population. I'll consider 350 millions of inhabitants though, it is just right within a high but not too high density for the given territory.

Pushka, how religious is the Russian Federation?
We do have a separation of Church and state, otherwise we have an absolute freedom of religion as long as its within the established moral standings of the society and not a money grabbing scheme (no Scientology allowed). We have primarily Russian Orthodox in mainland Federation aka Pushkan Republic aka Siberia, mostly Catholics in Latin and Southern America, Latin American Autonomous Republic and Southern American Autonomous Republic respectively and primarily Muslims in Near Eastern Autonomous Republic aka Yemen, also Hindus, Budhists and whatever in the South Asian Autonomous Republic aka India.

I appreciate re-starting the chechnian thread ( i know I spelled that wrong). It's final week for me, so i'll try my best, but i can't promise much for the next 6 days.
Hey, Knights Templar, you may want to know that I had Israel before you got it. Basically, it was held in an iron grip by the Cottish military in order to prevent violence between the jews and Palestinians, and while there was peace and prosperity, there was also tensions that were violently crushed whenever they erupted into violence. Let me know if you want to know more about its history under Cottish rule.

I feel I have to ask, although the jewish population in Israel would be there it could not be in the extreme to where Palestinians and the jews would be having a fight over the land. Technically, since there was no persecution of jews in a holocaust there would be no reason for a mass migration to their holy lands therefore Israel would still be Palestinian primarily wouldn't it?
Just an observation I guess...not so sure, im not really an expert on Israel or anything but I do know alot of the reason they were given the territory by the UN was because of the mass migration from Europe.
Eh, oh well don't need a flamer response to that just correct me nicely if im wronge.
Also the CSN now has a nearly complete constitution. I call it "The Articles of The State." Like a good constitution is lays down how the council government is to run, splits the powers between the territories of the state and the federal congressional council as well as the FCC's chairman/women. blah blah blah, regular constitutional shit then finally the final Article which is called "The Article of Public Law." which is where the federal law lays down its rules which are all in the intrest ONLY in protecting the public and not restricting them. The Articles include a list of 13 unalienable (...not a word I use much) rights, a BoR so to say. I include an example below of the preamble to the Articles
Since the beginning of modern society it has been the duty of a government to protect and watch over its people. Government itself has taken the idea of protecting and began to restrict the god-given rights of those people it was built to protect, neither god nor human has to right to infringe on others humanly rights. Those rights, the rights of life without restriction, has been tossed aside in order to gain control of those who give it up. We the people, of sound body and mind, therefore ratify these articles in order to regain our original rights and throw off the tyranny which has plauged us for so long. No longer will a government take away the rights which are given to us at birth as a living being among this planet. Life and Freedom are unquestionable and shall never be taken from the people of this state, The State of Nerotika, and in order to protect our rights we establish a council built by the people and ran by the people. We will not loose this passion which has brought us to establish this state, we will be stronge in the face of tyranny and we will not back down from aggression from any government which restricts its people.

Oh and since the constitution was ratified after the original council was created there is a small section which condems the first council for its actions that went completely against the peoples wishes. Its basically just says that with the ratification of the articles a mistake as such would not be made again.
I feel I have to ask, although the jewish population in Israel would be there it could not be in the extreme to where Palestinians and the jews would be having a fight over the land. Technically, since there was no persecution of jews in a holocaust there would be no reason for a mass migration to their holy lands therefore Israel would still be Palestinian primarily wouldn't it?
Here's how I understand the flow of Israel (and, conversely, Jordan) in Earth II:
-Israel began in E2 (at least when it was restarted) under a nation called IDF, who RP'ed as Israel. IDF, to my knowledge, went D12 so Cotland came in and took the land. I believe since then it's been carved and then reunited various times (in fact, I think at one point Knights Templars had Israel) leading to what it is now- in Templar hands after it had been open for newbies.
-I claimed Jordan shortly after E2 restarted but I sold it some time later. My RP's try to stay consistent with RL as much as I can so I RP'ed with Palestinians in Jordan, but I should qualify my statement by saying I didn't do much with Jordan when I had it. I believe Jordan transferred to Cotland (who bought the land from me) and Cotland transferred it to Ottoman Khaif, who owns it now.
Regardless, if Cotland RP'ed dissension between the Palestinians and Jews then it's very safe to say that Israel does, in fact, have that dispute. Besides, the amount of times Israel has been carved up suggests that there's a lot of other "people problems" than might be apparent, because a nation that disjointed for so long isn't going to be "united" very easily (if anyone wants a RL example just take a look at Belgium- the union there was forced and despite the fact it's held for almost 200 years it's still a union that is precarious at best).
That's how I remember it. Any corrections/omissions?
Sounds about right Rome. Add to that the fact that the central Cottish government encouraged the jewish population to move to their "ancestral homeland", naturally under the protection of the Cottish crown, and the large amount of jews that moved there from the Yevrey territory I used to have in Siberia about ten years ago in RP time, and that this sudden addition of another five million jews caused the Palestinian population to be somewhat displaced (again) and thus disgruntled, forcing the central government to maintain a strong military force in the territory in order to maintain civil law and order. Israel is somewhat crowded at the moment. I think I RP'd it having somewhere around seventeen million people when I gave it up for newbies, of which five million were Palestinian.
It must be noted though that the Cottish Army is an equal opportunities discriminator. If a Palestinian rioted, he was cracked down upon. If a jew rioted, he was cracked down upon. No distinction. If they rioted, they were cracked down upon and survivors were trialled to the fullest extent of Cottish law, which have the death penalty for "Illegal Revolt against the Crown." I'm guesstimating that Cotland executed about four hundred thousand people over the forty IC years Israel was under Cottish protection.
So as you can see, there's probably a lot of people down there with some level of dislike towards the Realm. I think that could lead to some interesting RP twists...

After reading some of RTL I have to thank you Lay for inspiring my writting ability. I sat down and wrote quite abit, a new story that hopfully I can keep a passion about. Although I have not completed a chapter I did write a good beginning to it, I don't want to give anything away but I do want to give you guys a little preview.
Iseala himself was glad he had gained some control, he knew now he had loyal councilmembers in those chambers and was going to find how who was behind him and who was against him. But this power seemed to easily obtained, the chairwomen would return the next day and he would be stripped of his position. Of course, that would be only ‘if’ the chairwomen returned. Iseala’s mind was a devilish one. He had, as successor of Darinsky in the Nerotikan Socialist Party, many followers already. Many of which prepared to lay down their lives for their leader. Many of which who hated the Reformist Chairwomen Victoria.
The vice-chairman revealed out of his pocket a small federal cell phone which was encrypted to the highest degree in order to prevent any enemy of the state from tapping into federal conversations. Even the federal government itself was unable to listen in on what was said through these phone’s. He called a pre-dialed number in his phone, two rings and the other side picked up.
”Good evening sir, how have things gone.” The other side spoke, the voice deep and raspy.
”Quite well, your now speaking to the acting chairman for the time being, at least until that useless bitch returns.”
”I catch your drift sir, I believe the chairwomen will run into some trouble trying to return to the chambers. You need not worry Sir all tasks will be completed.”
”Do what you wish, but just get it done. Things are going smoothly at the moment, but make sure its done within the next month. It cannot be right away, questions will be asked if it looks to obvious.”
”Yes sir, I will arrange things. But with her return the constitution might get done before things are finished.”
”Your fears can be set to rest, with her return nothing will be done. I can delay it as much as she does but at least with me it will look like something is being done. You will receive a call once its finished, your next subject will come after that.”
”Yes sir, I look forward to speaking with you again.”
Iseala hung up, he stared himself down in the mirror of the empty bathroom. He had a slight smirk on his face, things were indeed going smoothly and he knew if things continued his power would only increase. The chairwomen had no idea that the council had turned against her, and soon she would not need to care as she would have many other worries to think about once the NSP got to her. Iseala was busy in the future, he almost forgot that there was a long road before the future was his.
Iseala left the bathroom and straitened his black tie. He walked toward the chambers and entered them. After taking his seat he continued the council deliberations over the State Articles without the chairwomen.
I'll have a full chapter done and the story up and posted after next week if all goes to plan, of course I have alot of school work (Nealy two weeks without going leaves alot to be done, especially since im about to graduate) so this might go into a mental vault for awhile but I like what I have and I really want to continue it so hopfully I will. The Chechen rebellion will restart once Knight Templar says he's ready cause Krasnodar and Adygea are vital parts of it.

Sounds good to me Nero but I've taken the liberty of proofreading your post. It had a lot of grammatical errors, the kind of which may deter readership.
Iseala himself was glad he had gained some control, he knew now that he had loyal council members in those chambers and was going to find out who was behind him and who was against him. Perhaps this power seemed to be obtained too easily but, then again, it was short-lived. The chairwomen would return the next day and he would be stripped of his position. Of course, that would only be ‘if’ the chairwomen returned. Iseala’s mind was a devilish one. He had, as successor of Darinsky in the Nerotikan Socialist Party, many followers already, many of which prepared to lay down their lives for their leader, many of which hated the Reformist Chairwomen Victoria.

Basically, the initial invasion (OPERATION OPEN SEASON) will secure several coastal towns in and around Sassandra before the SeaBees sort out an air-strip whereupon you and Brink will be able to start flying in forces to begin a large offensive aiming for the border between the Ivory Coast and Mali.
You can also have some forces shipped out to South Western Ghana where a large Armored Division and Army troops are going to smash through the border and link up with Ivorian troops trapped East of Aboisso.

News from the CSN.
The state has now officially cut mandatory drafts for military enlistment. The draft is no longer a means of gaining military power, as of current (OOC:Update for the factsheet lay) the military power of the CSN lays at 13,000,000 standing with 3,000,000 in reserve. Currently 520,000 of that strength is fighting in the Chechen state's against the insurgency of the Chechen Rebel's. The remaining, several hundred thousand still to be trained of that total number, are being used to keep tours of duty of air force and police infantry in the chechn states to only 6 month tours. Infantry from the Nerotikan National Corps. are serving 8 month tours in red zone's, the length is determined to give the infantry the right experiance in the zone and enough experiance to prepare newcomers for what to expect.
In other news the Federal Congressional Council annouces its compeletion of the "State Articles Constitution." and is finalizing the process of voting it into power as the highest law, finally establishing the CSN as a written constitutional state.
From Voldagrad, the councilwomen has made several federal donations to bring the private educational industry, primarily college, the ability to give out scholarships to worthy individuals. Miss Victoria has also made it possible for low income families to apply, and in nearly 7 of 10 cases, be accepted for federal pay aide of the amount of $30,000 for college education. The prices of college's have been forcfully cut by several state council's in the past month's, to cut out profit from industries creating college's in order to make money instead of teach at higher levels. Along with the educational craze of the government a federal teacher employment agency has been officially annouced to be created within the month in order to unionize the teachers against unlawful private educational facility practices such as charging teachers for all school supplies while cutting paychecks without prior notice.

Emperor's Fleet Week speech. Address to the Nation!
Just saw an awesome one acts play show at my high school that some of my friends were in.
Best one went like this:
Daryl walks into his office with a shirt covered in coffee because he hit a pot hole in the parking lot, but his chair is gone. He talks to his friend Frank and Frank says don't worry, I just lent it to the janitor so he could stand on it and screw in a light bulb. He talks to the janitor and finds out the janitor accidentally fell off and kicked it into the elevator and then starts yelling at him about how janitors deserve respect.
Daryl goes to the guy in the basement who monitors the surveillance cams, who is completely insane but eventually finds out that it ended up on the boss's floor after a couple people from the office had sex in it. Then the boss's kids took it up and down the elevator and spun it around until one of them threw up massively all over it. The boss became so angry he got a heart attack and his secretary (who is hitting on Daryl while she is explaining this and the girl had a perfect 50-year old secretary voice) wheeled him out to the ambulance on the chair. Then Jasper, the hobo who hangs out by the building claimed it as his own until the police came after him and he hid it in the building.
One of the other women in the building took it and since one of its wheels had become squeaky sent it to the repair woman (guess what, she's also weird). Daryl talks to the repairwoman and finds out she sent it up to the roof to be fixed on the windowwashers lift because all her tools had been taken. The windowashers told him that a pigeon had taken a shit on it. So finally he gets up the roof and finds out from the people there that one of the guys up there had been losing at cards and blamed their chair, so he smashed it around and threw it off the building (making the pot hole).
Daryl returns to his office to find that Frank had told him not to worry because they already had another chair they were going to replace the old one with and had brought it in two minutes after he left...

The fact of the matter is, I was in jail for over 2 months and I have come to reclaim my place, no matter what the cost. I am still a member of the OA and I will take Germany and Austria (At the very least) as my own. I ask that the countries of Europe give up their lands now or face fierce and unrelenting repercussions.
Für uns Führer Kübler!
You can have Spain and Portugal back NG. I think I have pissed enough of the natives off when we started butchering the insurgents via plastic explosives. What can I say if you want to do it right, use dynamite.

Well maybe it could be a smaller ship thats built out of wood and aluminum or something else cheap with inflatable sections to enlarge it to battleship size. And just a simple petroleum engine. Run by a skeleton crew or even better, just automated. Maybe with working AA systems to put up some resistance against missiles.
Is that feasible?

International Address from Chairwomen Tanya Victoria
It has come to our attention that there is support in Europe for the return of the Fourth Reich into power over European states. We in the CSN strongly oppose the return of power to such an iron fisted administration as well as facist minded government party. This world has grown since the fourth reichs downfall and with its return it would not be long before they and their allies in the October Alliance allow the reich to rampage across Europe in wars focused on conquest. In order to protect the interest of the free nations of this world the CSN will pledge any military strength needed to those free nations of Europe in order to stop the the return of the fourth reich. If Germania is restored under the flag of the fourth reich the CSN gives its word that war will be upon them and any nation that supports such a facist leadership. This world needs protection not restriction, we cannot advance our peoples if we allow ourselves to be led by those that want to strip our rights.
We must make it clear that those nations that wish to conquest the free people of this world will not be tolerated. We must band together against the threat of the fourth reichs return, as well as the threat of the October Alliance's support of this facism. We call out to all those that have not affiliated themselves with the OA, to join together in support of a free Europe without the likes of the Germanian leadership that plauged us before. We, I, ask that all those nations that are with us to make it clear that you are as such. Oppose this clear attempt to impose government that will strip human rights from the people of Europe and oppose those nations of the OA that do this already. In the intrest of human decency Germania cannot be allowed to regain control.

Is that feasible?
Technically? Maybe. Financially, logistically and even tactically? No. A competent opponent will have already singled out the principal targets for the strike (aircraft carriers, et cetera) and will have programmed his missiles to attack said targets, ignoring all other targets. Therefore, adding smaller "combatants" will be a waste of time as these ships won't be targeted in the missile strike until after your principal combatants has been sunk, in which case the entire reasoning behind building these expensive and glorified targets is gone. You're better off spending the resources developing point defense weaponry and electronic warfare systems to counter the incoming missiles.

International Address pointed at the CSN
We find it ironic that the CSN wishes to tell us how to distribute and govern our lands. If we return the lands of Spain and Portugal to the Germanic State, your calls for keeping the German's out of Europe won't play into the equation. We are a free people that support many ideals that some find questionable at best. We have learned not to cast stones on politically-motivated moral issues. You asking nations to keep native Germanians out of Europe is as offensive to us as your perceived offense of the Fourth Riech state. We have no qualms about supporting nations with different ideals, we have reached out to our neighbors in Asia and other locations to better the lifestyles and livelyhood of the populace through commerce and trade. Continue down this deranged path of attacking a group of people trying to reclaim a homeland and we shall take various punitive economic actions both in Hawdawg and abroad that will stifle your commerce and trade. If actions are taken by CSN militarily to deny Germanic presence in either Span or Portugal we are more than capable of lowering your screams for banishment to a whimper.

Prime Minister Gordon Wells

1) France will be surrendered to Germania and in return the people of that country shall not be harmed.
2) Germany will be surrendered to Germania and in return the people of that country shall not be harmed.
3) The Great Eurasian Line shall be reinstated so long as nations are willing to cooperate with Germania. If there is any nation who refuses to allow the Great Eurasian Line to continue to pass through their lands, military action will be taken.

But whatever, do what you want cause I cannot stop a damned thing from going on even when its clear that any rational nation should oppose such governing from being reinstated.
I'll retract my statments and allow the fourth reich to just take over Europe, which I have no doubt in my mind will come of this soon. I'll stick to my own, stay on my own side of the tracks where people have rights and act morally for the good of others while you stick to your side where every irrational system of government is allowed free roam to do whatever they please.

The Fourth Reich has too long enslaved the peoples of Europe, Africa, and Asia with its militaristic regime. The resurrection of such a government over those free peoples is a direct violation of human rights’. The World must take actions to halt the spread of this revived regime before it is too late.
All too often we have watched members of the October Alliance dictate the terms of global power based on force rather than reason. Though it may be too much to ask of these nations, we ask you do not aid in the Reich’s reemergence but rather stop it as it stands.
At the pinnacle of the Reich’s collapse Spain and Portugal led the rebellion, now they find themselves the first sold back into slavery. Where in this is there reason?

International Address from Chairwomen Tanya Victoria
First, directed toward the Holy Republic of Hawdawg's Prime Minister Gordon Wells. We have never had relations before and it seems a shame to have any future relations tarnished by misjudgment on either side. Your republic, Mr. Prime Minister, has shown some decency by addressing the issue in some sort of form even though its in support of the germanian government. You do not speak immediatly of eradication of my nation and for that I must comend you but saddly I cannot honor your idea's. You say that you support nations with different ideal's but have you concidered the fact that these ideals are capable of devestating the populace which you claim to better with commerce and trade. Trade does nothing, Mr. Prime Minister, to help the people if ultimately its the government's decision on who benifits from that trade. We attack not the germanian peoples as you have said, we attack the idea's that those people were forced to live under by the fourth reich and it's leadership. You have sold Spain and portugul down the river and soon to follow, it seems, will be France and Germany provided by another October Alliance member. I ask, once again in the name of human decency, for some support at least from the most rational member of the OA. Clearly you must know what horrors the Fourth Reich is capable of bringing upon the European people and yet you give up land which is better off under Hawdawgian control then any other OA members'. Please reconcider your stance, the OA charter is nothing more than a peice of paper compared to the millions of lives at risk should the Fourth Reich return, you have a mind of your own so please use it.
Secondly, to readdress the issue of the reemerging Fourth Reich. With a word of support the CSN reinstates its former position. We will not allow the Germanian people to fall under control of the Reichskanzler's regime. Whether it mean fatal consequences or not the CSN will protect the European people and makes this promise to them; To all the people of Europe, to all those that know the Fourth Reichs horror's. You will be safe from now on, protected by the free people of this world who refuse to let power misguide judgment. You will have freedom but it will cost a heavy toll, we alone cannot pay this toll. You must rise up, rise againt these enemies of the world and show them that the people deserve freedom above all else. You will have our support, our gun's, our tanks, our planes, our souls will be embedded into your cause against tyranny far and wide. The State has made it's share of mistakes but this is certainly not one of them, Europe must be free at all costs.
Cause I have, what 4...or is it 5?, nations all threatening to distroy me if I even attempt to stop the Fourth reich from reestablishing itself.

We will not allow the Germanian people to fall under control of the Reichskanzler's regime. Whether it mean fatal consequences or not the CSN will protect the European people and makes this promise to them; To all the people of Europe, to all those that know the Fourth Reichs horror's. You will be safe from now on, protected by the free people of this world who refuse to let power misguide judgment. You will have freedom but it will cost a heavy toll, we alone cannot pay this toll. You must rise up, rise againt these enemies of the world and show them that the people deserve freedom above all else. You will have our support, our gun's, our tanks, our planes, our souls will be embedded into your cause against tyranny far and wide. The State has made it's share of mistakes but this is certainly not one of them, Europe must be free at all costs.
Official Statement
While not one bit surprised with the recent string of Nerotikan statements, the Realm is saddened to see that even after all these humiliating defeats after countless futile fights against the October Alliance, Nerotika still has not learned. The October Alliance Charter is far more than a "piece of paper", something we'd expect Nerotika to grasp by now. Perhaps there is some credence to the claims from certain scientists that Nerotikan brains are 40 % smaller than those of other races.
However, this does not negate the fact that we are most surprised with the Nerotikan promise for military assistance to anyone opposing the stabilization of the Fourth Reich, given the fact that what remains of the Nerotikan military is what we refrained from crushing less than a year ago. Still, if given sufficient reason to do so by Nerotika, the Realm will not hessistate to completely and utterly destroy any and all Nerotikan warmongering capabilities the next time we are forced to take defensive measures in order to prevent Nerotikan aggression. You are hereby warned that any acts of aggression against the Fourth Reich will be considered by the Realm as an act of war against the entirety of the October Alliance, and the Realm will use any and all means at its disposal as it sees fit to ensure that Nerotika will learn its lesson once and for all.
In closing, the Realm wishes to let the Fourth Reich know that we are most elated that the Reich was able to ward off the instability that has plauged the Reich for these past few months, and that Reichskanzler Kübler is still alive and well. Once we have been able to reestablish diplomatic connections, the Realm is interested in discussing the return of Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxemburg to the control of the Reich.
Sincerely,
Thomas Rothsky

A little support is all I asked, I felt so alone there for awhile...and with what i've done before I can't exactly (Alone at least) be taken seriously. Almost made my retractment official but instead, here ya go.
International Address from Chairwomen Tanya Victoria
First, directed toward the Holy Republic of Hawdawg's Prime Minister Gordon Wells. We have never had relations before and it seems a shame to have any future relations tarnished by misjudgment on either side. Your republic, Mr. Prime Minister, has shown some decency by addressing the issue in some sort of form even though its in support of the germanian government. You do not speak immediatly of eradication of my nation and for that I must comend you but saddly I cannot honor your idea's. You say that you support nations with different ideal's but have you concidered the fact that these ideals are capable of devestating the populace which you claim to better with commerce and trade. Trade does nothing, Mr. Prime Minister, to help the people if ultimately its the government's decision on who benifits from that trade. We attack not the germanian peoples as you have said, we attack the idea's that those people were forced to live under by the fourth reich and it's leadership. You have sold Spain and portugul down the river and soon to follow, it seems, will be France and Germany provided by another October Alliance member. I ask, once again in the name of human decency, for some support at least from the most rational member of the OA. Clearly you must know what horrors the Fourth Reich is capable of bringing upon the European people and yet you give up land which is better off under Hawdawgian control then any other OA members'. Please reconcider your stance, the OA charter is nothing more than a peice of paper compared to the millions of lives at risk should the Fourth Reich return, you have a mind of your own so please use it.
Secondly, to readdress the issue of the reemerging Fourth Reich. With a word of support the CSN reinstates its former position. We will not allow the Germanian people to fall under control of the Reichskanzler's regime. Whether it mean fatal consequences or not the CSN will protect the European people and makes this promise to them; To all the people of Europe, to all those that know the Fourth Reichs horror's.

Regardless he made his statements IC and you shouldn’t take that as anything but. While OOC he knows that he has no chance against TOA (nobody in EII really does), IC he must make this statement based on his new government.

Lies! Lies! Lies!
There is no dictatorship in the Empire.
Any chance that those insurgents are armed with my wonderful Stg. 8 assault rifle? Cause if not i'de be glad to be their supplier...secretly of course.
Mostly AK-variants cheap eastern european knock-offs RPG's, ancient recoiless rifles, improvised IED's and terror tactics are mostly the calling card of the insurgents now. Better weaponry would definitely benefit there cause. Some of the insurgents took weapons from abandoned military complexes and the like but no clear "supplier" of weapons exists. Once the ammo left was/is burnt up in the old NG rifles they won't be able to find anymore as it was a unique round to the Reich. I know Pushka is supplying the rebels in the Ukraine but logisitically its pretty easy for him to do so. I think its an excellent idea to provide arms to the rebels! Smuggling has always been a problem in the Med. Sea anyway and that would definitely add a twist to the equation. I would suggest routes along the Med. coast however. Sneaking anything in from the Channel side would be difficult. My navy doesn't have the range to provide shore patrols along the Med. coast of Spain coming out of Morocco. I only have one Task Force on the Med. coast of Spain you would have to avoid. *hint hint*

OOC: You know, I'm sure there's enough outside of The October Alliance that could reasonably provide a challenge. It'd probably have to involve almost every non-TOA in the world but it is possible.
Welcome to reality in general and the world of politics in particular. The world isn't a fair place.
A fair point, but I must also point out that in reality economic strength would waver and different countries would be powerful at different times. However, in the NS world, economies are always growing (because there's no "check" in the system) so as long as you're active your country is always strong, even though this wouldn't really be the case.
Just thought I'd point that out.
I wish we could have avatars here, because I'd be totally rocking an Inter Milan avatar at the moment. I know it's late (long weekend here in Canada...out all weekend) but we won our 16th Italian league title, this one with no point penalties to anyone and all the big clubs back in the top flight, so this victory feels even sweeter.
I suppose this'll have to do. :D

The state will remain neutral but asks what the rebel's are hoping to accomplish in this coup, what are they fighting against and what are they fighting for. As well we ask the BHR's current government to submit possible reasons as to why rebel's would turn against them.
If in the end this a struggle for simply power the CSN will support the current BHR government.

sweet no worries :D At what point of time did Cottish sphere of influence reach Sakha? was it by conquest or coersion? cheers
According to Cottish history books, it was a "glorious liberation" that saw the liberation of millions of former Cottish citizens-turned-slaves "from the brutal yoke of Russian slavery" following the collapse of the Russian Dicatorial Union (I think that was what Pushka called his nation before he left the first time). I.e. Cotland invaded, killed those few Russian soldiers who opposed us, gave our former citizens back their citizenship and rights, put all Pushkan citizens (i.e. people of Pushkan origin) in concentration camps (later freed and extradited to Pushka when Pushka returned along with an apology), and reigned over what was known as the Siberian Realm (Sakha Republic, Madagan, Khabarovsk, Amur and the Jewish oblast) for a long time (over a year in RL time, over a decade in IC time).
The reason why we left was ICly because the majority of the people there wanted more independence and autonomy than the Realm was prepared to offer, and when faced with a choice between a brutal insurgency with untold losses and a peaceful release of the territories, the Cottish government chose the latter. The OOC reason was because I haven't got as much time for NS as I used to, and I won't want to be hogging up so much land when I won't have that much time to be active.
FYI, the territories in Siberia are well developed, with many new and well-maintained cities and towns, airports, highways, ports, et cetera, and a well-developed railroad network that connects just about every settlement and major installation. I used to RP Sakha alone having a population of almost half a billion people, i.e. the bulk of my old population.

It actually is a little out of date. I haven't been able to update in few weeks because I've been busy and claims since then are not reflected, such as Sakha.
This was available as of 5/4 and I took out Sakha since I know it is taken. The rest are open, if I remember correctly. Also, Soviet Bloc's land in North America is going to be opened up for newbies only so that too is available.

Preview of something I'm writing:
Dust settled on the sidewalk as the air filled with a hazy fog of brown and gray. It was a strange happening that it was raining at that moment but it wasn't raining water from clouds, it was raining bits of dirt and rock, chunks of concrete mostly the size of pebbles. The hazy fog made it hard to see and breathe, even harder to hear or speak through. The ground still rumbled and the air still shook with some sort of pressure wave that felt like the passing of a subway train. The pebbles and dirt chunks fell down, onto the ground, raining like hail but much more violently and definitely more densely as the hazy brown and gray cloud flowed through the avenues and alleyways, pushing through the air as it volumetrically expanded around corners, walls, parked cars, and obstacles that were in its way. It was warm too, carrying with it heat that was noticeably hotter than the outside air temperature. From above and further away it moved like a pyroclastic flow of a volcano, hugging the ground, expanding around obstacles, pushing fast through the air, swallowing everything it touched.

Actually it has nothing to do with NS it's for a story I'm writing, more like a series...post-apocalyptic and though I like you're analyzation it is not a volcano but I did want to invoke that imagery in a way.

[ I'd like to claim the Sakha Republic (i.e. big open territory just to the right of Pushka's Siberian claims). It's only slightly over the limit defined by your matrix (about 100k-klicks squared—small compared to some other stuff), and about the only place left I have any interest in. That all right?
I would have loved to include Chukotka as well, but it goes far too much over. :(
EDIT: Oh, you had it in mi² to start with. That's what threw me off. Then yeah, I'd like to include Chukotka.
EDIT²: ffffff distortion. Magadan then.

Welcome. I think I've seen your name around here too but I wouldn't quote myself on it. I'll do an update tonight peoples. By the way, snapped off another 189 pictures this afternoon at Malba. What gorgeous scenery it is in Queens!
FYI I have a very elaborate history with Kaliningrad. I'd appreciate it if you incorporated it to a degree. The below is from my factbook.
http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11760907&postcount=24
The Kaliningrad Republic plays a major component of Layartebian history. It was seized in 1990 and established as an autonomous republic immediately, governed by a Parliamentary Democracy. In 1993, during the Fourth Reich invasion of Belarus, a large military force was deployed to the small republic. Permission to deploy the forces there was initially approved by the Prime Minister but it was not approved by the majority of the populace. The Prime Minister was assassinated shortly thereafter and the new party in power demanded that the military withdraw immediately. When they were denied, an immediate insurrection took place against Layartebian forces. The republic was soon seized from its autonomous state and put under complete martial law. For 2 more years, fighting continued between Layartebian forces and Kaliningradian rebels. In 1995, following a tactical and strategic defeat, the Layartebians withdrew from Kaliningrad and granted it independence. The war saw the complete destruction of Kaliningrad City, the capital and largest city, as well as the destruction of most of the country. Some 250,000 were left dead, 125,000 refugees flooded to neighboring lands, and upwards of 400,000 people were wounded. The population of Kaliningrad, at the time of the onset of war, was only 968,000. It remains one of the most humiliating and only defeats the Layartebians faced after 1980. Layartebian casualties numbered only 5,286, a gross difference. Following the withdrawal of the Empire of Layarteb, the Fourth Reich seized Kaliningrad and brutally suppressed rebellious and insurrectionist forces. The invasion followed numerous border violations by Kaliningradian terrorists. In 1998 after the Kaliningradian war was well over, terrorist hijacked a Layartebian airliner in the middle of a Nor'Easter and flew it to Kaliningrad City. A rescue mission was conducted shortly thereafter and all terrorists eliminated. Further terrorist attacks were expected but none came to pass.
I am going to redo that terrorist incident thing eventually and here (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=380343) is my Kaliningrad War RP.

I'm sorry to say that I will finally have to concede that I can no longer participate on NS. Summer work is taking up too much time, and I feel that I've already taken too much time from this RP that it might begin to hurt the whole system of things.
In the meantime, I will be surrendering this account to one of my best friends, who be maintaining the accounts for me. As for the territories under my protection, I release them once more to the general public for distribution as needed; I leave it to Lay et al. to decide how the territories will be redistributed [I sound like a communist now...]
