Dear Maineiacs,

Freetruth appreciate's very much what you have done between our two mighty nations.

We are in much need of Granite/Stone.

However, we do have an excess of cloth, wool, silk, cotton, fur, and leather. Is there a chance you would be willing to trade a certain amount?

Please look at our website/catalog (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=9073813&postcount=4) to see how much you would like.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Roce
Chairwoman of Foreign affairs.

Our nation has a massive supply of uranium and pluetonium, we would be willing to sell some to you at a negocatable price of 100,000 Per Pound. :gundge:

Njordland: Franklin Seaborg
Maineiacs's trade commodities include:

Various crops (mainly potatos, carrots, cabbage) -- 300,000 metric tons @ 2ECr per MT ($0.76 US)

The fishermen and woodsman of Njordland have welcomed Frank Seaborg into The Community, and the womenfolk find him intriguing!

Our physicians are interested in these crops, listed above. They feel that they may provide health benefits to our people, not much grows in the harsh North! In exchange, all we can offer whale skins, bear and reindeer meat, and timber (which we believe you already have access to). We have many plants producing first rate paper material in our urban areas, and we can offer wireless technology if neccessary, such as cell phones.

We are still a developing nation, and would appreciate investment into our economy to exploit coastal petroleum deposists. The raw material could be exported to a foreign nation for refinement, until the proper facilities could be constructed on our mainland, should that be cost effective.

Njordland's currency, the Goose Feather, at last evalutation, was:
$0.24 US = 1 NGF

To the Government of Freetruth:

We thank you for your offer, and would like to trade for cotton amd silk. Can you handle an order of 300 MT of each? Please let us know the price of each, and how much granite would suit your needs.

To the Government of Njordland: We are interested in obtaining wireless technology. please let us know how many are available for import to our nation. I"m sure we will have no trouble supplementing your citizenry's diet with fresh food stuffs. Just let us know how much you need.

To the government of Flightopia:

We thank you for the assisstance with our nation's energy needs, but may we ask: what is your currency, and what is the exchange rate? you quoted a price of 100,000 per pound, but neglected to say 100,000 of what.

The Federal Republic of Canada is interested in formulating an agreement in assisting your people in constructing hydroelectric dams. At this time, we have no intentions in agreeing to any settlements. We are more then welcome to help you build your infrastructure.

This sounds extremely good. Unfortunately(this is the player talking, not the nation), I am still new to Nation States and I am still learning Nation States language. So, what is "MT of each"??

This is what I have-

Cotton, 125% of national need
Silk, 125% of national need

I can give away 25% of my nations need of each resource.

This is what I need-

Stone, 45% of national need

So, because I am still new, is there a chance someone could help me figure this out??!!!??

Grately appreciated!

OOC: Can someone help me out? Is there some sort of calculator that says what resources a nation has and doesn't have, and in what quantities?

OOC: You can make it up all by yourself, although saying that you have much of everything won't make you popular ;)

http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=426429 for opening diplomatic relations (you could read it in its whole, maybe it can give you some inspiration)

The Community of Njordland can offer 500,000 cell phones per quarter, averaging at 2,000,000 cell phones per year. The rate will approximately be $30.00 US per cell phone, and the rate is negotiable, as the Unions here in Njordland are getting a little pushy.

We can offer $76,000.00 US for 100,000 MT of foodstuffs.

We await your reply.
