“Today Farmina is now stronger than ever.”

Justinian looked down from the balcony onto his people. He wondered if Farmina’s internal struggles had left it any stronger than in the days of Brimestone.

“With our nation now populated by one billion people we are a true world power. And we now have the one thing that separates the strong from the weak.”

Justinian pointed to a screen on the right of the hall. It activated revealing a blue ocean.

Then suddenly the screen turned to light as a huge blast made waves in international waters. A furious wind blew everything away from the explosions superheated heart. Then the wind reversed, and the mushroom cloud formed over the water.

“The Holy Empire of Farmina has built several hydrogen bombs, and now we can be certain they work. Our army is at full readiness, our population is at full readiness, and we have the greatest weapon known to man.”

“In God’s Name.”

The crowd patriotically echoed, “In God’s Name.”

OOC: Half a year of Farmina, so lets hear IC and OOC thoughts on the past, present and future.

***OFFICIAL PROCLIMATION***

As a nation that also has currently hit the 1 Billion Population marker, we congradulate your nation on hitting this ever-enlarging club. We hope closer relations between our two people in the future. May your ties to God help your nation grow larger and stronger than it ever has been in the past.

The Great Collective of Random Kingdom has also hit 1 billion citizens, but a poll carried out by the news paper Probe shows that the majority condemn Farmina's showoff act.

The Soviet Union wonders how Farmina assumes that ownership of a Hydrogen weapon is at all a symbol of power. If Farmina is ever at war with the Soviet Union we ask how Farmina would deliver such a weapon onto any city in the USSHR.

The Hogsweatians should not need worry about deployment of hydrogen weapons to their soil, Dumpsterdanian Missile Command has got that part covered.

As for our allies the Farminians, may their empire last for a thousand years and may their enemy fall dead at their feet, long live the dual Empire!

Imperial Councillor,
Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Official Statement from the Credonian State Department

Creodnia congradulates Farmina on reaching a population level of one billion citizens. This event signifies the successful prospering of your nation and you have much to be happy for, however, we are alarmed by the unnecessary use of a thermonuclear device and the signal it sends to the world. While we are not allies, we do share a common ally, Dumpsterdam, and we can only be concerned with the signal in which an unprovoked detonation of a thermonuclear weapon sends to the international community and the ecological effects it will have for generations to come. Please remember that nuclear weapons are weapons that should not be used unless in extreme cases, and even then, they should ONLY serve as a deterrent against potential aggressors. Such weapons can and will cause permanent and devastating ecological damage. Damage which can and will cost the lives of hundres and maybe thousands or even millions of innocent men, women, and children worldwide. We hope that you refrain from using nuclear weapons for any reason, whether it be as a show in celebration of something, a show of "power", or use as a weapon against an enemy. We do this for the sake of all mankind.

We thank the devout nation of Shazbotdom for their kind words. They humble me in trying times. God bless your nation.

We had to check the weapon worked. We would have been in for a shock if we tried to detonate it on an enemy army to find out it didn't.

We congratulate you on reaching 1 billion citizens.

Emperor Justinian

By missile one would think. If not that, then we would...<censored for security reasons>.

But we don't like communists as it is.

We thank Dumpsterdam and Erik Solar for their kind words, we are truely humbled. If only enemies would as you put it 'Fall dead at their feet' life would be a great deal easier. Long live the dual Empires!

We thank you for your kind words and heed your warning. We have no intention on deploying the weapon for offensive purposes, just as the greatest deterent possible.

Kooluk Corporation, speaking for the Corporate States of Kooluk, wish to congratulate you and your great nation on reaching such a powerful landmark. Perhaps, however, in the future, when you wish to test a weapon of such magnitude, it would be best to inform other nations first; while Kooluk Corporation sees no threat in such a weapon being detonated, especially over open international water, and instead see it as a great step foreward for your country, other nations may not share the same optimistic appraisal of the situation and may take it as a potentially hostile act.

Congratulations. But seeing as throughout the Reich, we have about 3 Billion people, and we have an un-disclosed amount of Nuclear arms, we dont see what's so important about that..bah. What ever. If you need some help with those nukes, just ask.

Random Goverment Warmonger.

The Arbalest Army of Jenrak would congratulate Farmina on their 1 billion counter, and it is apparent that Jenrak currently has not and will probably never reach the 1 billion population due to the massive amount of slaves in proportion to the actual population. However, testing of nuclear weapons is a venerable way to create a powerful impact in the world, especially when done publicly.

We heed your words and consider them. The detonation was a once off and shall not occur again.

We also thank you for your compliment.

We need no help from the likes of you.

Jenrak

We graciously accept Jenrak's congratulations and wish them the best efforts in trying to create a population of a billion.

Perhaps giving the slaves citizenship will help.

Oh, and why's that?

Oh, and why's that?

Your government got in a great tissle when we suggest the Emperor stopped being divine, to start with.

A gift basket was sent to Emperor Justinian, along with a card.

"What a thoughtful gift," noted Justinian.


To: Queen Alexandria and the Queendum of Trehul

I very much appreciated the gift basket in these trying times. I have a great respect for you and your nation, despite theoretically hating your sinful evil nation, as it is doomed to hell.

Your words are sweet and kind, not unlike your plum jam.

Emperor Justinian
