Land has always been a powerful motivator for those in power. The more land you had, the more powerful you were thought to be is how it went. That way of thinking spread from the farms to the houses of the kings who went to war to capture the land of their foes. In modern times this behavior was demonized and dubbed imperialism. The people who spit on the soldiers and their work do not understand. All that matters is the glory of your country and what you did to enhance it. So, the Pacific Navy has been mobilized. The 1st, 3rd, 6th, 8th, 11th, 12th, 14th, and 16th Carrier Groups have been deployed south from Peru to blockade the entire coastline of Chile. An as yet unspecified number of Mobile Infantry and Armored Cavalry have been set up along the northern border. Nothing is being allowed in or out through the border and no boats will be allowed to leave Chilean Ports. The Commonwealth of Greater Eire seeks dominance of the Pacific coastline of South America and the conquest of Chile is the final piece of the puzzle.


OOC: I apologize that it's so goddamn short. I'm pressed for time. However, I start break on Wedenesday so I'll have plenty of time to write threads of higher quality.

In addition the militarization of the Peru-Chile border, troops have been put into position to enter Northwestern Brazil. The Carrier Groups are setting up the blockade.

OOC: I apologize. There seems to have been a misunderstanding. This is an Earth II thread and because of this you must be a part of Earth II to participate. I appreciate you taking the time to type out a reply, but seeing as you have no presence on the Earth this is taking place on...

I need to put an Earth II label in the title.

Well, first of all, it's really not a threat to your country as you don't exist in Earth II. There's no way you could possibly launch airstrikes or touch me militarily. That, and I'm over two years older than you. I have a population of four billion people and a military budget larger than that of your entire GDP. So, even if it were possible for you to attack me, which it's not, I'd crush you with minimal effort.

Superior size doesn't mean victory, ever heard of the American Revolution? Either way, I see your point of how you're no threat. I'll delete the news of Slayrulian involvement.

4,000,000,000 to 6,000,000 means I win by sheer numbers alone. Economics comes into play as well. You could never afford the systems I could. Anyway, thanks for trying. I should have specified what the thread was for.

I should've asked about it. Either way, you forgot that not only was I going to literally use my entire military (which, due to laws and drafts, would increase in size and strength every day.), but you would've had the full force of three other countries fighting you. Worse came to worse, even if my aid forces and the S.A armies were beaten, I could've resorted to nukes (there's nothing that says I don't have 'em!). Either way, good luck RPing against yourself!

It's kinda the way these things work. They're basically just land-grabs.

The Empire of Cotland would like to know the motives for the annexation of Chile. We want you to ensure that no Cottish citizens currently in Chile (foreign exchange students in Santiago) get harmed. For the duration of the military operations, we will maintain all forces in East Falklands on highest alert.

Regards
Imperial Government of Cotland

The government of Chile has long been defunct. The country has degenerated into anarchy. We wish to bring the civilization of Eire to these people. Northwest Brazil is currently without a government and Eire is the light that will lead them back to the status they had under Colodian rule. Cottish citizens will be allowed to cross the border if they present the proper identification. They will be provided witha flight back to which ever Cottish territory they so choose.

The Empire are satisfied with this solution, but will maintain the military alertness untill the situation is resolved. We will be watching you...
