After many decades of isolation, The Holy Republic of Zethistania is interested in catching up with the rest of the world's technologies and policies. Foremost, with security and defense becoming a more serious concern, we are interested in accepting foreign military advisors who can train our troops, help make our military more efficent, and give reccomendations of what equipment our troops could use. Our troops are deeply devout to the pantheon of Zethos and near-fanatical in their courage, but are severely lacking in skill and preparation compared to other countries' nations, and we are also suffering difficulties in low-quality or insufficient equipment. Here is some information that may be helpful in considerations.

Geography
About a third of our border is steep, hilly terrain, and the rest is ocean. The majority of the country is nestled within a river valley, with lush vegetation.

Climate
Hot, high humidity, with moderate winds.

Number of people in military service
70,000, all of them are members of the militant branch of our clergy.

Current Military Budget
$1,780,642,548.18, expected to rise substantially very soon with new budget being submitted to the floor of our Assembly.

We thank you in advance for your considerations, and Zethos mercy upon you.

Eli Terik, Lycaios Rane,
Premier of Zethistania General-Commander Cardinal

To: The Government of the Holy Republic of Zethistania
From: Barbara Edo, Regional Affairs Bureau, Foreign Ministry and Colonel Adam Jacobson, Special Missions Liason, Juumanistran Special Forces Command
Subject: Force training and arming

Juumanistra is somewhat hurt that Zethistania did not turn to those within her own region for assistence before going to the outside world for help. However, Juumanistra is willing to contribute sixty advisors to the reorganization and retraining of Zethistanian armed forces.

Furthermore, several Juumanistran firms have expressed an interest in arming the Holy Republic and will be in contact with you shortly with regards to that.
*=*=*=*=*

[I'll TG you the Juumanistran arms catalogue when I get back from dinner; you can take a look at a prototypical version of it in the Storefronts area of the Tradelands forum in the meantime.]

I'll Offer:


XM-8 Lightweight Assualt Rifles
F-35 Joint Strike fighters
M1A2 Abrams
e.t.c. Just visit my storefront: Its on my signature.

Once more, the offers of materiel and personnel are greatly appreciated.

Zethistania had no intent of excluding her neighbors in this deal, and apologizes profusely for any insult perceived; rather, she is interested in beginning relations with the broader world and assimilating their ideas and customs in order to modernize herself. This is the reason that she presented the offer to such a broad audience. The Tradelands are in no way whatsoever excluded from granting any aid, and Zethistania is still utterly and completely loyal and friendly to her neighbors.
