OOC: READ THIS FIRST!!! This is not conquering of YOUR land of Spain and Portugal. Its the Empire of Tersanctus expanding its Empire into a Quasi-RL version of the Iberian Peninsula. So I dont want any whiners coming at me with their stupid BS about.."I own it in RL Claims Thread number 8!!" Or about how I need to make "Earth XXXXXXVVVVVVIIII" for it to be legitimate. So If you were thinking about doing it, click the "back button" and go find someone else to flame.

If you are however a SERIOUS RPer, you are more then welcome to post your Nations Concerns over my aggressive Imperialism, your welcome to send a force to defend The Iberian Peninsula, based on RL Stats...there isnt room for 90021834798237 different nations to own the land. You are welcome to place sanctions on me.

But you are not permitted to tell me OOCly that I cant conquer my own version of land, Ive seen it before, I wont put up with it, Its my own fantasy world, and I can create whatever I want.

With that being said, Im kicking some ass....

Ruling Seat of the Executor
War Room Breifing

In a room surrounded with computer monitors flickering its light off the Black Dress of Admirals and Generals, Executor Shijin Kotomari sat at the Head Seat of the Circular Table.

"The response was as expected. The Spanish and Portugese Governments have both refused voluntary incorporation into the Empire." Said High General Nicolas Ethalosian.

"And our agreement with the UK? Is it still in effect?" asked Shijin.

"Yes. Though this matter disrupts the EU Structure considerably, Our forces are more than a match for the Continent as a whole. However Short and long-term interests will allow them to enter into a more prosperous arrangement with us. Specifically, allowing Gibraltar to remain under British Rule for an Indefinite period of time, as well, we agreed too allow only commercial Tersanctan ships through. In exchange, Britain has allowed us to stage some our forces for a Northern Naval Assault on Spain."

"And this takes place after Portugal has been taken?" asked Shijin.

"Yes...Portugal is the easier of the two targets, thier Cumpulsory Military Service ended last year. Their estimated Poulation is approximately Ten point five million, with an estimated Two point Five Million Military Manpower Availability. The Land is only 91,951 square Kilometers to control, as opposed to Spain which is 499,542 square kilometers....Both estimates exlude water territory."

"And so this will tighten the noose?"

"Yes It will allow a Two naval Attacks from the north and south, and a Major Infantry Launch from Portugal; once it is taken, They will have three fronts to deal with,....they will not be able to defend very long."

"....How are our forces? Are they prepared? What of the Occupation Militia?"

The General Smiled.

"We currently Twenty Fleets on standby. We have a Massive Amphibious Assault Force, last Estimated at 400,000. With Three Million Reserves Standing By. As you know, weve spent the last three years planning this, and stand prepared to make our move....the Empire will expand once more."

"Very well then...In Twenty Four Hours, we begin the attack. Inform the Governments of Spain and Portugal, they have that time to accept our demands."

As was expected, the demands were not met. And the Naval Forces of Portugal began closing in tight perimeter to strenghten their coastal defenses. Spain had offered a fleet, but withheld most of its own forces for its own defense. The Portugese were horribly outnumbered as the Imperial Fleets made there way to the line of ships...

"There they are, the pathetic fleets of the Potuguese....do they really think they have a chance? Our fleets alone outnumber their ships ten to one." Said Vice Admiral Grey.

"Arrogance has no place in war, we will complete the objective, and land our troops. Never underestimate your enemy." replied High Admiral Tatz.

The Ships closed in lighting the Dawn Sky with massive missile launches, and Fighter Jets bombing laser-guided missiles with deadly accuracy. Eventually Portugals small fleet fell to the Tersanctans, Five Fleets showed no mercy, and fire burned on the floating wreckage, with bodies floating everywhere, spurning blood into the Atlantic Ocean.

As dozens of Amphibious Assault Ship's made thier way to the beaches of Aveiro, and Leixoes Porto, The main task force fell toward Lisbon, the Capitol. Political and Territorial control would be tasked from there. The Tagus River fell through the center of it, and would provide a Gateway to Spain.

The first objective, was to bomb airports, televison and power stations, to loosen any movement and communication capabilities of the current Government. As the Imperial Trisagion forces fought to control the beachheads, several kilometers inward the Same jets that destroyed the Portuguese ships, cut through the air to finish the final phase of the operation.

Within six hours, The first signs of the Power Collapse was evident. Over 247,000 Troops had successfully Landed and Taken conrol of nearly every major city from the northern city of Braga, to the southern city of Faro.

The only holdout was Lisbon, with several thousand of the Republican Guard defending their City and Politicians to the last man.

But by dawn the next day, with most of the power out, Special Forces taken control of the Major Airports, and The City of Lisbon nearly shot and Bombed to crumbles, any pockets of resistance that might have been left over, would easily be dealt with, with the Terasnctan Battle Net now securly online. In all 545,500 Troops occupied the Country, with Five Fleets now providing the Coastal Defense for Portugal, after a few weeks of regrouping and staging, Spain would be the next to fall.
