"It has come to my attention that the rogue nation of Hogsweat, not so much a nation as an impoverished, slovenly, filthy pack of rabid wolves, has violated the sovereignty of one of my greatest allies, Parthia, by storming the Parthian embassy in Hogsweat. This is appalling, indigestible, and un-statesman-like. The utter disregard these cretins show for the beautiful concept of national sovereignty is inconceivable and unforgivable. For this reason, I henceforth sever all diplomatic, military, economic, et cetera, relations with Hogsweat. All Roach-Busterians in Hogsweat are to return home within a week. All Hogsweatians are to return to that pigsty they call home within two days. After 48 hours, if any Hogsweatians are still in Roach-Busters, they will be butchered like the squalid tons of pork they are."

-Generalissimo J.L.

The Holy Empire of Sidestreamer wishes to plea that you don't leave Hogsweatians "butchered like the squalid tons of pork they are," simply for failing to exit your nation. Such acts are unnecessary, in our opinion.

We do exactly the same with you. If we find any RBians in RK, we will dispose of them compliant with UN regulations (they will be deported out of the nation, into the non-UN RK colony of Geckratonia, where they will be tortured by the mutant gecko natives and shot.)

I was bluffing. If they fail to vacate the nation within the designated timeframe, they will not be killed. Rather, they will become my slaves.

-Generalissimo J.L.

As Roach-Busters ally, i'm going to cut ties with Hogsweat. although any Hogsweat citizens living in Space Union may remain.

Green Sun grows weary of JL's denouncement of the validity of the humanity of other nations. This goes against many of the morals Green Sun was built on.

Parthia thanks Roach Busters for their support. We will fully support JL.

-Shah Khosru III

I thank my magnificent friends in Space Union and Parthia for their support.

-Generalissimo J.L.

The United States of Aliados will also support Roach-Busters in ther plight. If you need anything I am but a telegram away my friend.

-President Arterski

OOC: Is there a thread for the embassy thing?

Official Communique from the Resi Corporation to the Esteemed Potentates of Parthia and Roach-Busters:

Hogsweat, it seems, has nothing better to do than agitate other nations. When it's not picking on poor Farmina and starting an embargo against it, it's violating another nation's soverign soil. However, we do not believe that this is good enough criteria to sever ties with Hogsweat, but it is good enough reason to go to war with this nation. Severing all ties with this foul nation is simply saying, "Go ahead and keep doing what you're doing, just don't touch me or I'll slap you."

Neither of these, however, will be our course of action. We want to declare ourselves as friendly to the nations of Parthia and Roach-Busters, and everyone on their side, but we still wish to maintain some form of contact with Hogsweat for purely economic reasons. Also, we believe that brinksmanship can be used to solve this sordid state of affairs.

When Mondoth nationalized our assets, we threatened to crush them like a bug if they did not return them and pay us tribute in compensation for lost profits. After doing the math, the leaders of Mondoth complied and returned what they had seized and payed us money. It was a smart move, and we currently maintain a friendly relationship with Mondoth.

The point is, you can pay a larger capitalist nation to step up for you and threaten to destroy Hogsweat should they not return Parthia's land. The larger nation needn't even worry about retribution, Hogsweatans are cowards and should cave before the might of anything their size or greater.

As for why we don't do it, we'd rather be the nexus between your growing alliance and the filthy communists you cut ties with. That way we appear neutral as far as their side is concerned, but you know our true alligence. This puts us in a better position for bargining, as well as some other advantages later down the line.

poor Farmina

That's the best joke I've heard all week. Do you refer to it being poor because of the nice little embargo we placed on it, or poor as in ironically because that savage disaster of a nation is being attacked for being a scourge on the documents of human rights and equality? Just a question.

Oh, and we fully support the actions of the Generalissimo. Except not.

We fully apologised for that incident, held a constitutional referendum to stop it happening again and appointed a new government. Yet some still hold their grudges and imperialistic ambitions against Farmina. We must ask why?

((OOC: That was a closed letter, Einstein. Only Roach-Busters and Parthia could see that. Why do you think we disclosed our true allignment in it, hm?))

Offical Statement by the Carthaginian Government

Although we will not completely sever ties with Hogsweat, we support Roach-Busters' move. We are hereby withdrawing our ambassador from Hogsweat and leaving behind only a Consul and his personal staff(4 people). All trade between our nations are hereby suspended.

OOC: This applies to Earth II as well.

OOC: You never said Secret IC, Einstein.

((OOC: This little dandy piece of text means that it was a letter put in the mail, stamped, and addressed to the leaders of these two nations. You still can have seen it, but then we'd go apeshit on you for using espionage.))

Official Communique from the Resi Corporation to the Esteemed Potentates of Parthia and Roach-Busters:

OOC: I don't know about you, but that to me looks like it's addressed to two people who aren't you. This would imply you don't know. It's really not hard to tell which posts are public and which ones aren't so stop being pedantic. He wasn't talking to the world, it's fairly clear by the above quote.

We spy on everyone, don't worry. ;) *hugs PSAT*

We have had no ties with Hogsweat since he attacked Bahrain (earth II), wounding me, devastating my Airforce, and killing many civilians, before abandoning his conquest

OOC: I don't much like Mrs. Hogsweat in E2. But he's just playing the game. Until he actually does something to me, I'm making no move.

But more power to the rest of you.
