The Grand Citadel, Carthage

The Emperor, wearing his best clothes, stared into his soul as he sat in the Imperial War room. This can't go on, he said to himself. During his reign a massive amount of crisis' had emerged. Beggining with the brutal civil war which lead to his rise to power, his nation had suffered immensly. Over 1,000,000 people had died in the civil war, as well as in the Communist and the Socialist revolts. Then he lost most of Sardinia to TIOR, and was on the brink of a war half a world a way.

Have I done what is best for my people?

After a moment, the Emperor walked out of the room and onto the grand podium which stood above the entrance to the citadel.

"People of Carthage," he began saying to the crowd outside. "I have failed you." From the crowd came gasps and people shouting "No you haven't!" and "You were the best Emperor we ever had!". "I have dragged our glorious empire into decline. Over a million people lay dead because of my actions. And now we are on the brink of a war that may repeat what happened in the War against the Generic Empire; total destruction of our land and people.

"It is time that we threw down the shackles of an Imperial Government, and let the people decide who controls what. My replacement shall be Prime Minister Steven Hargin, who you elected yourselves. Good day, and farewell."

The Former-Emperor then stepped down from the podium, got into his helicopter, and then flew over the city towards his home in Hannibalia. As he reached the edge of the city, however, his helicopter was ambushed by 7 armed Communists with RPG's. The Helicopter spiraled towards the ground as the pilot frantically tried to regain control. After 25 seconds, the helicopter crashed into an abandoned parking lot.

There were no survivors.

Did the Emperor have any family surviving? We will take them into our country for protection, and they can live as nobility in Manama.

ooc-smuggling them out of the country illegally would be fun, maybe on the Indian border?

The Cottish Emperor offers his condolences to the Carthaginian people, and vows revenge over those who commited this act of savagry. He also recognise the new Carthaginian government, and wish them the best of luck. Cotland's friendship with Carthage still remain strong.

ooc: tag.

OOC: This is REALLY old news, guys.

IC:

We have everything under control. There is no Imperial Family(Hannibal was the last in the line), so there is no need to smuggle 'em out.

No no no.

The Emperor stepped down and then a democratic government took his place. However, when he left the citadel, communist insurgents decided to take him out once and for all.
