Pulling the Petals off the Rose

Farmina

Justinian’s powerful arms fitted snuggly into the jacket. “Tudor, another masterpiece, this suit is perfect,” he said, buttoning up the top jacket buttons.

“I’m glad his holiness is pleased,” replied Tudor the tailor, bowing graciously at the Emperor’s comments.

Justinian walked up to the mirror and looked into it, studying the fine white of the jacket and trousers, and the black silk shirt. His servants fussed over his deep red tie, aligning and realigning it to precision. Behind him, his hairdresser was on a step ladder, refining Justinian’s part.

“Enough,” he uttered, and his servants stopped, “It is time to go.”

The two imperial guards in their white uniforms, opened the door and then stood perfectly still waiting for the Emperor to pass through it.

The Emperor stepped out of his changing room, and proceeded along the corridor to the Grand Council, with Imperial Guard smothering the walls on either side of him. As he approached the council, the cry became louder and louder, “Justinian, Justinian, Justinian.”

When within meters of the final door, imperial guards opened it and Justinian continued forward, emerging in full view of the entire Grand Council. The chanting, very loud in the chamber suddenly ceased. Liberal [OOC: Liberal isn’t American Liberal], Labor, Conservatives and Fascists all burst into a massive applause for the beloved Emperor. Even the odd socialist was seen to clap.

Justinian walked up to his personal podium in front of semi-circular council.

“Fellow Farminans; in Random Kingdom we through away the rot of the socialism and replaced it with capitalism. We have destroyed tyranny and put in its place freedom. We have forced Mondoth to yield to our terms. Our hard line on leftism and those who would see our nation enslaved has brought us victory on every front we fight, and yet causalities are still less than the number who sit in this very room.

But the left now sits in fear. Our victories do not go unnoticed. The Island of Rose has declared war on Farmina, putting the Rosians and Farmina at war for a second time in our history. We shall not allow there to be a third. I call upon you to support our armada, which at this very moment sails to liberate the good Catholic Rosians, from the tyranny of left wing ideas.

Any move against must be matched by one much greater, it is the only way to discourage further foolishness, further challenges to our nation. A declaration of war can only be matched by the defeat of our enemies. The leftists must be removed, freedom, true freedom must prevail.

Other nations have promised to support us in this cause. Now I ask the elected representatives of this nation, to support the Farminan military in liberating the Rosians as we so valiantly liberated New Random Kingdom.

GLORY UNDER GOD.”

The council echoed, “GLORY UNDER GOD.”

Grand Chancellor Tobias Grey looked around the room, “I call a vote to support the Emperor’s bold words, the military’s valiant actions, and the nations who will join us in this bold quest. May I see hands.”

With that the hands of every political block went up, excluding the socialists.

A cheer broke out followed by a chant, “Justinian, Justinian, Justinian…

--------

Aboard the Leviticus, Grand Admiral Richter looked at his watch. The armada was approaching The Island of Rose from the west. “Three o’clock,” he muttered. The sun would be setting behind him. In the modern day that wasn’t a great benefit. “Contact the other fleets, check their co-ordinates, we must pounce together,” he ordered.

They were close now, and the Rosians would have to know that they were the targets.

For too long the Rosians have been a thorn in our side. They constantly prattle about 'human rights,' and 'stopping genocide,' when all they're really interested in is destroying the sovereignty of anticommunist nations. Because they have been rearing their head at us recently- and because we wish to aid our allies whenever possible- I will deploy as many forces as are needed to cut The Island of Rose down to size.

Official Declaration of War against the Heretical Tyranny of Farmina

The Tyrant of Farmina has needlessly slaughtered innocent lives.
Farmina is at war with our ally, The Island of Rose.
Farmina has not heeded to our order to cease any hostile actions against another nation.

The church and the Patriarch have declared a crusade against Justinian and his oppressive goverment. We will liberate the people of Farmina. There will be no peace. No treaty. Just blood. Seas of Blood. Justinian's blood.

God will pass judgement on you. We will arrange the meeting.

Harc smiled. It was time for Neo Earth to reestablish itself as a military power. It had one of the most well-trained and equiped force in the world. Also, the nations mere size allowed for millions and millions of these elite troops. Harc already knew the outcome of the war.

But he had to make sure it was fought intelligently. No need to waste lives.

"Generals and Admirals. I have called the General Council to discuss the plan for fighting Farmina. Who wishes to start?"

The Grand Admiral, head of the Neonic Navy, stood up. "I suggest we send our forces to Rose and assist them in the defence."

The Lord Militant, head of the Guard, also stood. "We could use the navy to press the Farminian forces between our fleet and our soldiers on the coast."

The Commander General, head of the Marines, added his voice to the assembly. "Nay, I say we invade Farmina. They will have to pull back from Rose. By the time they have returned to their nation, we could have a beachhead and control a good portion of the nation."

The meeting went on for hours. Finally, a plan was made.

Harc grinned. "So it's been approved? Good. Then start Operation: Crusade."

Green Sun will NOT enter this war as an Anticommunist force but an ally to Roach Busters and her allies. Entering as anticommies would piss off all the communists in our nation which make up about 12% of our population. And they don't like being called Communists, they're Socialists or Equalitists.

Farmina calls on Neo-Earth to reconsider our declartion of war. Farmina merely wishes to see a lasting peace between itself and TIOR. TIOR has refused to listen to words, so alternate means are required.

With regard to the slaughter of socialists, that is a long dealt with matter and there is no possibility of a reoccurence. Farminans are very patriotic and will see that the government adheres to the new constitution.

Sirdar Havenic watched the missiles course through his binoculars as long as possible - rather pointless, given the multitude of tracking sites following it's course and the target set up for this demonstration - but he rather enjoyed a bit of the "old fashioned" in his mix.

"Sir? Four seconds to impact... three... two... one... "

Far away, there was a flash, followed by a mushroom of smoke and flying debris. The soundwave would hit sometime later.

"Excellent test, Naqqua. How are the readings?"
"Nominal to profile, sir. We believe it should work regardless of any sort of hard or soft cover around the target."
"Excellent. Get the reports to my office for approval."
"Yes, sir."

*Beep*

"Sirdar? It's the General on FLASHCOM. There appears to be a situation involving an ally of ours - a NATO ally at that."
"Oh? Which one?"
"The Island of Rose."

To Princess Layla

Farmina has had war declared upon it by The Island of Rose. TIOR as long as it maintains an aggressive stance towards our nation is a threat. We must cull that threat. We have no imperialistic ambitions towards TIOR. Anything that befalls The Island of Rose is a result of its own poorly thought out declaration of war. At this time we see no way can re-consider.

We do however applaud your diplomatic attempts. Most nations declare war, then ask questions after. We hope that you continue to use words over force. We can only hope that option is still open to Farmina.

Imperial Court, Doom City

Upon his guilded throne sat Emperor Helldawg V, and before him knelt all of his highest ranking generals. He was clad in his ceremonial armor, his mace leaning against his throne, while the generals wore their black uniforms. He had called them before him to discuss the TIOR-Farmina situation.

This was a situation his nation hadn't yet faced: two Catholic nations pitted against each other. Naturaly, he was going to support Farmina. However, killing fellow believers wasn't something he wished to go through with.

"So...what can you tell me of TIOR's armed forces?" he said.

The High Overseer of Imperial Intellegence spoke first, "My liege, I can tell you right now that we would be vastly outnumbered and outgunned in an naval battle."

"Tell me something I don't already know." replied the emperor sarcastically. The High Overseer continued,

"However, their land and air forces are a complete joke..."

"Well I wasn't exactly worried about being defeated in those particular areas in the first place, Overseer."

The Emperor then turned Grand Inquisitor Marius, his religious advisor,

"Inquisitor, how shall we go about the purging of fellow believers?

Marius responded in a solemn tone,

"Your excelency, we must first avoid needless slaughter. We must avoid civilian casualties where ever we must, and massacres after a battle are absolutely unacceptable. In fact, we must instead have our men make penance. However..." he said, grinning slightly, "If we were to, say, find Brother Sergei guilty of heresy, we might just be able to lessen the restrictions on our forces..."

The Emperor was most pleased by this.

"Thank you, Inquisitor, I shall keep that in mind. Alright, go to your planning, brothers. As for me, I must inform Brother Justinian of our support for his cause. DEUS VOLT!" he shouted.

"DEUS VOLT!" they ecoed. He motioned for them to leave him, and he began to compose a message...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

To-Emperor Justinian
From-Emperor Helldawg V

Brother,

I am well aware of your intention to
wage war upon the Island of Rose.
Said nation happens to have a very
large Catholic population, and I am
very hesitant to spread the blood of
fellow believers. However, I shall tell you
now that you have my full and unconditional
support in your most just war.

TACCOM - FLASH

By Imperial Order, all units under the command of Field Marshal Talas of the Dumpsterdanian Defence Force in Farmina and the Royal Farminian Protection Group are to mobilise at once and prepare for possible invasion. New rule of engagement regarding Neo Earth troops have been included and includes a free-fire rule.

The deployment of Army Group Steel to Farmina will commence at once, including increased air support and logistics personal. This will total up DDF troops in Farmina; including units of the RFPG to 200.000 combat capable personal and needed logistics.
Lead units of the Grand Armada have already entered Farminian waters at sixty nautical miles out, expecting the main bulk to arrive within two weeks with remaining troops of Army Group Steel.

Standard orders for NATO troop engagement; shoot on sight, take no prisoners, show no mercy.

For the second time that day, the Rosian ambassador charged, looking tired and worried, through the door of the Foreign Ministry. He sprinted up to one of the communications staff, whose face now bore an expression of mixed amusement and fear, and waved a message at her.

"Rose! Under attack!" he gasped, leaning on the desk. "Farmina...war...in message!" He then charged back out, leaving the door swining in the dawn breeze. The officer shook her head and calmly condensed the message for the relevant ministries.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Given that much of the armed forces had already been mobilised in any case, with the aim of dealing with Roach-Busters, it wasn't too difficult to re-allocate them to dealing with Farmina instead. Encoded orders quickly brought those ships already at sea onto new courses for Farmina. The submarines would take a little longer, even with their crude LACOM systems. Nonetheless, all ships which had been targeting Roach-Busters and its vessels had their new orders within 12 hours - open season on Farminan ships, too.

As a longtime ally of TIOR and a signatory to the NATO charter, the Imperium will not allow the military forces of barbarians claiming divine guidance to rampage across her lands.

As such, henceforth a state of unending war exists between Tyrandis and Farmina, until TIOR is extricated from the danger.

"It seems that the insults and threats are being thrown at this point, General," the Minister of War said to High General Homer.
"It does seem to almost have reached it boiling point. I want fifty-percent of our navy near Roach-Busters so we can follow them to their first naval or air battle. The other fifty is to stay near our homeland and will need to react as soon as possible to an enemy attack. I want all of our Fire Bases ready and our Arhers warmed up. This is going to be big. I don't want to make the mistake many nations have done before. We're not spearheading this one. We'll help out the best we can, but we're up against vastly larger nations that can squash us.

~Supreme Military Council~

Two Household Guards stood next to the unmarked door as the Emperor walked briskly towards it. The door opened automatically and the Emperor entered with his son, and his brother. It was a dimly lighted room, but one could already see the other seven seats representing the military were filled. The Emperor moved to his throne, the others bowed, and all took their seats.

"My Lord," said Lord Lawrence Hollistein, "we have recieved communiques, and sporadic intelligence stating that the Island of Rose has or will be attacked in the near future."

The Emperor nodded as he looked up from the intelligence papers that lay before him. "As you all remember, we fought with the Rosians in the past. Unfortunately, some of their recent policies go against what we believe. I do not wish to commit to this war, as of yet. What are our options?"

Admiral Lord Charles Clancey answered the question "Sire, we have many options in the matter. We have an ample number of ships in short distance from the islands. They are ready to be dispatched whenever, they are returning home from a standard cruise.We can keep them at a safe distance to observe, since I too agree, that war should be the last thing on our minds."

The Emperor nodded, and so it was done. A courier took the note and ran off to a relay room close to the chambers. The council entered into other matters of state.

OOC: I don't want to get too involved yet...because I don't neccessarily have a side yet as stated above. I'll see what happens and from there I'll decide what I am going to do.

The Empire would like to remind all involved, that, eventhough Farmina is in the wrong, an attack on their homeland will not be tolerated.

It is time for Farmina to sit on the burns, their attacking fleet will be destroyed but their homeland will remain untouched; DDF troops stationed in Farmina will see to its defence and security.

We advise our Praetonian allies not to deal to harshly with the Farminians, a slap on the wrist will do.

That, and as a finaly warning; anyone that has it in his right mind, to attack Farmina will be introduced the Empire's new first strike policy.

Encoded message to Farmina.

This is the last time, the very last time, that Farmina draws the Empire into yet another war, that could be so easily avoided. The Empire will, defend Farmina during this conflict but after that, all military and economic aid will be withdraw.

Where we see peace, Farmina creates war, when its people could be safe and asks time and time again for the Empire to lay the lives on the line.

You have exactly twenty-four hours to anounce changes, or I will see to it that those chances are made and you will not like it when the Empire meddels in your internal affairs once again.

Official Proclomation of Neutrality
The Empire of the Golden Throne will remain neutral in this bloody conflict as both parties are somewhat diplomatically cordial with us. However, it would be safe to say that the Empire would not tolerate a direct attack on the homeland of Farmina, and will rush to her defense if such a scenario arises. Furthermore, we hope that this conflict is resolved through peace, not war.

In any case, we will not cease any arms sale to either party in the war, if they wish to be armed, although any arming would be done for a fee. Although we do not currently have any orders for any nations taking place in the war, we will not turn a customer back if such an opportunity arises.

"We're not going to declare war?" asked Tonagato, the Minister without Portfolio, in a voice of slight shock. "But what of the Rosians, sir? Surely we are bound aid them?"

"And we are aiding them," snapped back Jones. "But we are doing so covertly. Why bother with the niceties of a declaration of war, Amon? We don't declare war now, and by doing so we gain advantages. They don't know that we're coming; they don't know when or where, or how, we're coming either. They may well simply think we're too wet to go after them, in which case we get a double whammy, so to speak." He smiled. "We might even, if we're lucky, pull off a Pearl Harbour on Farmina or Roach-Busters."

"But the international community will be outraged!" Tonagato protested. "A declaration of war grants us legitimacy." It means that we act within law. Currently, anything we do is either terrorism or piracy."

"Then we are terrorists and pirates, Amon. Difference is, we're terrorists and pirates who just happen to have proper armed forces to command."

Tonagato sighed inwardly. Marcus always saw things in stark military terms - victory was the only goal, and any means was legal, so long as the profit outweighed the cost. "Very well, Prime Minister, but I do not have high hopes for us." Tonagato took his leave, leaving Jones to ponder his decision.

We have resolved to endure the unendurable.

Though we are rather unfamiliar with the history between Farmina and The Island of Rose, we have determined that Farmina is the aggressor in this case. If Farmina does not back down, Japanese Antarctica will come to the aid of The Island of Rose in any way she sees fit. We would not like to see unnecessary bloodshed, therefore, we hope that Farmina considers this and reverses her decisions.
We await your word, and if the outcome is not the one we wish to see, we will mobilize the 1st and 2nd Carrier Battle Groups of the 2nd Imperial Navy. We trust you will make the right decision.

Dear friend,

It has come to my attention that you are being attacked by a nation of vicious pitbulls and crazed anticommunist rapists, known better as Farmina. I must state my disgust at their attacking such a nation as yours, who have been allied with us since the dawn of time. However, with an election looming and therefore putting my country into a slight period of political instability, I must regretfully state that I will watch the situation develop from the sidelines.

However, I am more than happy to donate to you $333.33 billlion USD to help with military expenses during this time of crisis. If needed, this number can be increased at any time. God speed, my friends, and good luck.

Krekar sat in his chair at one end of the table, his head bowed, his body seemingly frail in the presence of his Masters. The fiery Lord was not the absolute ruler of the Infernal Demonic Dominion, contrary to popular belief. He was a member of the Chamber, the least senior member at that. The people sitting at the table with him were the real rulers of the country, for this Chamber consisted of Greenmanbry's "heads of state", if you will.

Never has a foreign issue been transferred to the Chamber. Krekar usually dealt with such issues, including declarations of war, himself. But this was a special case. One of the nation's closest allies is under threat of invasion. The Dominion's lost ally, Granzi, and the weakened relations with its other non-NATO allies made the Chamber determined not to lose another nation to the power-hungry, glory-seeking pigs that were in abundance in this world.

"How the hell did this happen, Krekar? How the hell did they declare war on the Rosians without you knowing? Without our services intercepting any messages or encrypted transmissions? This is beyond humiliating, Krekar!"

Krekar hesitated, his sweat starting to cover his forehead, "This was completely unexpected, Lord. It happened just like that." Krekar snapped his fingers, which made the members of the Chamber cringe, "No clues, no warnings, no ultimatums, nothing. For all we know, Justinian the Dog, of Farmina could have drafted the declaration while showering in his bathtub."

"Our thirst is not for details, Krekar. It is for blood. Their blood. Defend the Rosians at all cost. If we lose another ally, one of the people sitting at this table will lose their head. And the odds are not in your favor, Krekar the Terrible."

~ Official Statement

Once again, a pathetic nation messes with a noble ally. If the nation of Farmina does not revise its declaration of war and alter its aggressive stance towards The Island of Rose, the nation of Farmina will rue the day they decided to mess with the Rosians. Long have we stood by and watched our peaceful, good-willing allies seek peace and prosperity for all, only to see their good intentions be destroyed by pigs like yourselves.

Farmina! If your despicable barbaric hordes set foot on the shores of Rosian land, they will not see their homelands once more. The Island of Rose will be defended, and every last soldier you choose to throw at our ally will be brutally massacred. May your worthless gods have mercy on your worthless souls.

With the rather blunt formalities out of the way, two of the IDDG Navy's four active fleets were ordered to relocate to Rosian territorial waters. On the bridge of the flagship of the Indian Ocean Fleet, DGV Leviathan, Fleet Admiral Anai Garang retreated to his cabin, having intercepted the commands from the IDDG Naval Headquarters at Port Nubia to change the Fleet's heading to The Island of Rose. Another deployment, the weary Admiral looked at the clock. He sighed, shrugged, and sat down at his desk. Briefings and orders of battle were coming in and, being in command of this operation, it was his job to make sure everything was in order.

As various angry diplomatic messages were exchanged between nations, the sound of marching could be heard in the great port cities of Doomingsland as men boarded transports. Several fleets set sail for Farmina, carrying over 200,000 men. It had been decided that rather then attack TIOR, they would defend Farmina.

Just as the Emperor raised his gavel to end the meeting a junior officer ran in through one of the side doors. He ran to the head of the large oak conference table and bowed to his Emperor, as he handed the notice above his head. Emperor Newt XX took the note, and nodded to the young man. He read it over quickly and looked up.

"Gentlemen," he said with his slight English accent "we have just recieved notice that the Island of Rose did not begin this stupid feud, contrary to our initial intelligence. Yes, recently some of the left-leaning ideas of this island have offended some of our conservative politics, but I feel these petty leanings are not enough to stand by neutrally." He paused and looked towards Lord Hollistein "It is time to inform Farmina to stand down."

Lawrence nodded slightly as he thought of how to word the upcoming document. The Emperor looked around the room at the somewhat grimacing faces of his military leaders. He spoke again "Friends, I know we are entering into a bloody conflict if it occurs, but the freedom to choose is what makes free nations like The Island of Rose so important in this dark world." He paused and looked at Admiral Clancey "How long until the fleet arrives?"

The white clad Admiral answered "A mere two hours." The Emperor nodded, and the gavel fell. The men rose quickly, bowed and ran out to their offices with in the palace.

OFFICIAL STATEMENT
---------------------

"The Armed Republic of Soviet Bloc will not hesitate to defend its ally, the Island of Rose, from foreign attack. If any attempt is made at attacking the Island of Rose, our forces stationed at Soviet Bloc bases on Rosian soil will be galvanized into action, decisively and without pause or hesitation. Until then, we will take a passive role in the conflict, supplying arms and supplies to our ally while providing our 17th Expeditionary Fleet and 12th Expeditionary Fleets as a form of deterrance and protection for the Island of Rose. The 21st Amphibious Assault Group and 24th Expeditionary Fleet will remain in their berths awaiting the call to bring a nation to its knees.

We have over ninety thousand Marines stationed in the Island of Rose, and thousands of other combat personnel including special forces, eagerly awaiting a call to defend an ally. And at that unfortunate moment, when someone makes that fatal mistake, every Soviet Bloc asset will be given a new objective, the total and utter annihilation and destruction of any offensive force, in conjunction with nations that have already pledged to defend TIOR. Amphibious Assault Groups through-out the area have, along with their expeditionary fleet counterparts, and even the First Battle Fleet, have been activated for potential duty.

Our air forces in the region will take an active defense role, providing the Rosians with sophisticated airborne radar, aerial jamming, electronic warfare, and electronic surveillance aircraft to patrol the Rosian skies in conjunction with their own forces. We will provide airborne refueling aircraft to all nations assisting in the defense of TIOR and we will provide access to our air base for repairs, refueling, re-armament, and even hold-over.

We are resolute and unwavering in the support of our allies, and we will defend them, not in vain, for we shall be victorious. This is your warning."

Presidential Palace, RB City

The Generalissimo groaned, as if he were afflicted by the world's most catastrophic case of gastroenteritis. This is just perfect he thought bitterly. Those Rosian bastards have practically the whole damn planet on their side. They have far more nations aiding them than we have aiding us. Moreover, many of their allies are far greater than us, not only in size, but in prestige and military strength. Maybe I back dow-

He paused in mid-thought. Back down? He could scarcely believe he had thought such a thing. Backing down would not only mean abandoning a staunch, tried-and-true, loyal ally- which was in itself bad enough- but it would also severely tarnish RB's reputation.

The last thing I need is for the world to think RB is nothing but a nation of cowards, he thought. Better to fight like men and die than cower in fear like sissies and live. Cowardice is a fate worse than death.

He picked up the phone and dialed the number of Minister of War Lester Lindsey's office.

"Lindsey here."

"Lester, it's the Generalissimo."

Perturbed by the Generalissimo's tone, Lester frowned. "Generalissimo? What's wrong?"

As briefly as he could, Generalissimo J.L. filled him in.

"Shit," Lester muttered.

"Exactly."

"So basically, you're digging an early grave for our nation."

The Generalissimo sighed. It pained him to admit it, but Lester was right. "Seems like it."

"Fucking-A," Lester said. "Well, Farmina is our ally, so..."

"And I am the Generalissimo. Meaning, we're going to war whatever reservations you have," J.L. snapped.

"Right. So, what's the plan?"

"Declaring war would mean our doom, like you said," J.L. said. "Therefore, our role will not be an offensive one, but a defensive one. Send Fleets one through five, five Air Armadas, five Armies, and five Marine Contingents to Farmina at once. However, if the enemy so much as lays a finger on one of our men, war will be declared."

"Yes, sir."

To: Emperor Justinian
From: Otto Farmer, RB Ambassador to Farmina

Your Grace, the Generalissimo has told me to notify you that forces are being sent promptly to aid you against foreign aggression. They will assume a defensive role only. However, if they are attacked, war will be declared, and the enemy will suffer an all-out, full-fledged onslaught by the RB military. We hope these forces will be adequate for your defense.

Chancellory of Defense

A dark room, a giant table, big t.v.s and people of high stature around said table.

"Gentlemen." The Imperial President, Frederick von Hattensberg said. "The Imperial Commonwealth is under risk from attack from CAD and Farmina. As we all know, the Island and its Protectorates have activated their Armed Forces and Navies. South China and Sardinia will be easy to protect, so will New Roska and New Rose. New Red and New Rosktai is at risk, but we have our fleets heading there... now. Twenty five fleets, the rest of the Rosian Navy is being re-called to defend the Island. As per Wilhem's request."

Wilhem, First Chancellor of Defense, nodded.

Sergei cleared his throat. "We also have the entire world on our side, minus Farmina and CAD of course. The Soviet Bloc, Greenmanbry, NATO, Praetonia, rumors say Dumpsterdam, and that whole lot. So when it comes to maintaining our image, this is a public bonanza."

Wilhem von Sturben stood. Pointing to the giant monitor on the wall. "The Rosian Navy will make or break the defense of the Island. We have over 2,375 ships waiting to blast them out of the water. Expectations are high, they say that we have the ability to win. And with the support of our allies it triples, of course we must not be cocky. If we are penetrated, and God help us if we are, we will have our new Imperial Mk. IIs at the shore ready to blast them. And if they go by the tanks, we will have our Armies ready to duke it with the Rosians underground and/or aiding defense. It will be hard to conquer us." He smirked as he sat.

Nicolas, head of Financial affairs, stood up. "Needless to say, this will put a strain on our budget, but with the money flowing from other nations we are safe. Rosta can agree with me." He sat.

Rosta nodded, Rosta being head of Commerce.

Tanya, head of the Interior, stood up. "I have nothing else to add, let the commanders handle this and we are safe."

Tanks started to get mobilized, men started setting up defenses on the beach, constant air patrols were establish, and the Rosian Navy was sent on alert.

Mmmm... delicious.

Statement from Mondothian Ministry of International Affairs (sec state)

It saddens us to see that so soon after the cessation of our conflict with Farmina that Farmina takes up arms against a sovereign nation. Alhough we are not in the usual habit of breaking treaties so soon, or of ending trade unnecesarily, Farminas warmongering in this case (so similiar to the war mongering we were accused of in the recent negotiations) is unignorable, Mondoth Condenms Farmina as a hazard to Humanity and calls for an immediate end to the reign of emperor Justinian, We have ceased trade with Farmina indefinately and have issued warning to all of our citizens to leave Farmina with expediency. All Farminan vessels currently within Mondothian Sovereign Wters will be allowed to return to Farmina but any Farminan vessels attempting to enter Modothian waters will be Impounded and their crews returned to Farmina.

Until Emperor Justinian is removed from power, A Mondothian Naval Task Force will be assigned position outside of Farminan Sovereign waters.

By Imperial Order, all units under the command of Field Marshal Talas of the Dumpsterdanian Defence Force in Farmina and the Royal Farminian Protection Group are to mobilise at once and prepare for possible invasion. New rule of engagement regarding Neo Earth troops have been included and includes a free-fire rule.

The deployment of Army Group Steel to Farmina will commence at once, including increased air support and logistics personal. This will total up DDF troops in Farmina; including units of the RFPG to 200.000 combat capable personal and needed logistics.
Lead units of the Grand Armada have already entered Farminian waters at sixty nautical miles out, expecting the main bulk to arrive within two weeks with remaining troops of Army Group Steel.

Standard orders for NATO troop engagement; shoot on sight, take no prisoners, show no mercy.

A peace conference, Minister? I can not see why your country, of all nations involved in this conflict, would call for a peace conference. Is it because of your impressive track record when it comes to peace and preserving human life? Or is it because of your Generalissimo's conduct during past peace conferences - which is befitting of a two-year old child?

Farmina realizes how desperate their situation is. If they want to set up a peace conference to avoid their impending doom, we want them to say it on international diplomatic channels. Fools.
