Welcome to all nations involved in the Samtonia-Pizzownage dispute.

As per communications between our governments, the Almighty People's Republic of Samtonia, as well as all corporations involved in the Pizzownage affair, will leave Pizzownage with all machinery, production material, raw materials, soldiers, weapons, and any other Samtonian owned item, excepting the buildings constructed by Samtonia Engineering, which will become property of Pizzownage.

All the preceding will be followed when Pizzownage pays for the land legally obtained by Samtonia, as well as paying any other misc. fees or fines connected in any way with their threats towards Samtonian Pizzownage.


Average value of land, per acre(http://www.nass.usda.gov/pa/annsum03/cashrent.pdf)- $3,000
Acres held- 400,000
Cost of acres- $1,200,000,000
Cost of Raw Materials for factories- $6,550,000,000
Lost Earnings over 5 years- $50,000,000,000
Lost Productivity- $250,000,000
Cost for Military Units sent-$15,000,000,000
Cost for High Alert due to WMD announcement-$12,000,000,000
Surcharge for re-sale of land-$3,000,000,000
Total Cost for Land Return- $1,000,000,000,000 USD or suitable mineral exchange.

There's your deal. We think it covers just about every cost applicable to the sale of the land to Samtonia, industrialization thereof, and subsequent arming of troops there. This is our best offer. Take it or leave it. And yes, you can pay it off in installments, with land given back at the rate the installments come in.

Here's your peaceful solution. We hope you take it.

The nation of the Soviet Republic of Russia,the parent state of Pizzownage, will be paying the debt of problems caused. Though we will only be paying half of the military cost as the army sent was not needed as the client nation had an inferior military. Also it is to our understanding that the raw materials were provided by Pizzownage. And the WMD announcement was a call for the weapons not a warning given so we do not think the cost should be as high for an alert.

Therefore we wish to negotiate on these issues.

And also the nation of Pizzownage is to be placed under martial law for this offence and as a clause to thins treaty





-Chairman,CP of SROR

The Soviergn Armed Dictatorship of Nutropinia will be overseeing these negotiations to make sure they are fair and unbiased.


Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs Karl Knox

As a neutral nation in this, i personally think you should take this offer. It is peaceful, and will save lives for 1,000,000,000,000 USD. If not then both countries must face a costly war. Although i see the understandings of objecting to some of the charges, we believe it could be much higher.

This I see as i am already bracing for another war with IPR but Pizownage should not be charged for some of the issues discussed in the above post






Chairman,CP of SROR

Military cost involves the total costs entailed in the rousing, preparing, and sending out of the soldiers that were to be used to protect Samtonians, as well as the cost of construction of a DMZ, cost of satellite overflights, and cost of fuel for shipping. However, we can drop the price down to $12,000,000,000 USD, to reflect re-routing of satellites over territories near Pizzownage and reduced fuel price due to that.

Raw materials were to be provided to be worked on in the factories. the cost for raw materials is the cost for the construction materials sent over from Samtonia- cement, steel, copper wring, insulation, etc... Cost will remain the same.

WMD alert was called due to the cries for WMDs and nations willing to provide WMDs. Accordingly, Samtonian SIDS was placed on highest alert, border security was tripled, and all non-essential government buildings were shut down. This cost Samtonia about the price asked for, although that could be dropped to $11,000,000,000 USD.

This is, literally, the lowest we can go and still keep our costs for this venture above the red. We suggest you take this offer.

Samtonian Council of Thirteen

We believe it is best to avoid war at all costs. One trillion is a trifle compared to what it will cost all nations if a war is started, not to mention the human toll.

Assistant Minister of Foriegn Affairs Karl Knox

Very well this shall be payed with the money of Pizzownage placing them in a economicly depressed state. Not that this will matter as they will no longer be making any decisions for themselves or fighting their own wars, with the disbanning of 90% of their military the nation should be able to cover the costs of the reparations.

Also SROR's military can offer transport of any Samtonian national safely out of Pizzownage



Chairman,CP of SROR

Excellent. Our people will begin to pull out at once. Just let our transport ships dock in the harbors we began to construct and we'll pull out everyone ASAP. Expecting $996,000,000,000 in USD or mineral resources very soon.

It has been excellent to prevent a war that would have been costly for all involved. So kindly keep us in mind next time any of you need economic work done!

OOC- Post about leaving to come in a day or so.

Yes it is nice that we averted a war almost caused by the misguided client state of Pizzownage.




Chairman,CP of SROR

OOC- Oh, damn, I've gone and done the math wrong. That should be $996,000,000,000 USD, not $96,000,000,000 USD. Changing earlier post accordingly.

Yes we expected the 996 billion USD






Chairman,CP of SROR

Slaytanicca would be happy to donate 100 billion USD out of it's Random Aid budget (a subdivision of Welfare) over a period of twenty years, for the repurchase of this land.


OOC: Dude did that lot add up to 88 billion, or is it just me? ;)

OOC- You know what? Even if it did, we're saying the final price is $996 billion USD. I can't be bothered if I put in the wrng digits. When I did the math on my calculator, it added up to $996 billion. So screw the numbers up there- they are meaningless and pointless and possibly wrong. Bleh!
