Welcome to Krioval! We look forward to interacting with any and all nations interested in forging strong relations and trade. The government of Krioval is pleased to offer many options to the discerning nation when it comes to diplomatic, military, and commercial agreements in order to accommodate a variety of cultures.

Embassies:

For nations with populations below one billion, we offer an exchange of ambassadors, with your nation's embassy to be placed in the city of your choice. With renovations of the capital, Torokara, complete as of this notice, we recommend those newly available sites. We request that any embassy operating in Krioval be limited to twenty-five full-time personnel, and that weapons be limited to small arms. Explosives and weapons of mass destruction are expressly forbidden. Your nation may submit a request for means of transport or may bring their own conveyances, subject to the restrictions above. All diplomatic personnel are to be considered immune from prosecution while in Krioval, though they may be confined to embassy grounds or expelled from Krioval if caught committing a criminal act. The grounds of a national embassy are to be considered the sovereign territory of that nation, and in the event of the termination of diplomatic relations between that nation and Krioval, all personnel in that nation's embassy will be transported by the Kriovalian government to the nearest point of departure, and from there sent to their home nation.

For nations with larger populations, we offer, in addition, consular offices in other major Kriovalian cities. These offices, like embassies, are considered the territory of the nation holding them. We request that full-time personnel in these offices be limited to ten, excepting where nations make earlier arrangements with the government of Krioval.

Diplomatic Agreements:

Statement of Concordance

Whereas a treaty of peace is typically used to end a war, a Statement of Concordance is issued without prior conflict, and affirms the goodwill between the populations of the two nations who enter into it. Such a statement is typically a precursor to a trade agreement or stronger diplomatic agreement.

Non-Aggression Pact

A bit stronger is a non-aggression pact, which affirms the two nations' desire to avoid any military conflict with one another. Breaking such an agreement can have serious international consequences, especially among both nations' allies.

Right of Passage

This agreement simply allows each nation's forces to cross through the territory of the other's. Right of passage can be granted for land, sea, or air routes, or could be applied to allow mutual security at diplomatic sites, such as embassies.

Mutual Defense Pact

For nations of advanced technological level, including the ability to travel through deep space, a mutual defense pact requires the second nation to assist the first when the territory of the first is attacked. Such agreements can be arranged to require intervention only when neither party is the aggressor, or it can be applied to all military situations, even when one nation had earlier initiated the attack.

For nations of lesser technology, a mutual defense pact with Krioval obliges both parties to provide resources and intelligence to aid one another should one nation's territory be breached by attack.

Military Alliance

For nations of advanced technological level, a military alliance binds both nations to fight together, barring restrictions placed at the onset of the alliance.

For other nations, such an alliance requires all logistical and intelligence support that each nation can provide be delivered without delay to the war effort.

Trade Agreements:

Normal Relations

Under ordinary circumstances, few trade goods are subject to import or export tariffs by the government of Krioval. Nations concerned about these duties can contact Krioval to inquire as to whether goods they will be sending or receiving will by subject to taxation.

Preferred Status - [Target Good]

Under preferred status for a given material or resource, Krioval will void any duties collected on the import or export thereof.

Free Trade - [Target Nation]

In a free trade status, all tariffs, duties, and special taxes related to the import or export of goods to and from Krioval to a given nation are made void.

Additional Information:

If a national representative would like to request any of these services, please do not hesitate to contact the government of Krioval. Within twenty-four hours, a diplomatic official in Krioval will personally review the statement and return with either a decision. Those nations already party to any or all of these agreements should contact Krioval without delay to confirm that your nation's status is up-to-date. Thank you for your time and attention in this matter.

The Democratic Republic of Fatus Maximus is interested in both a Mutual Defense Pact and an Embassy Exchange program. We highly recommend you read The Fatus Maximus World Factbook (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=430187) for more information on our country. Our demands for an embassy in your nation are relatively modest- one Ambassador, three or four assistants, two inept unarmed guards, and one 1987 Oldsmobile. Our Ambassador also requests that his office contain a mini-bar and that the embassy itself be within walking distance of an International House of Pancakes. We look forward to a peaceful relationship between our nations in the future.

Esteemed Minister Li Hirohito and Princess Tomoyo Mikanu:

We thank you for your interest. The list presented by Krioval is meant to show all the possible options; nations are encouraged to select those that would likely work for them. For nations newer to the international arena, Krioval suggests starting with embassies in each nation, and perhaps negotiating a small-scale trade agreement. This would allow our nations to build stronger relations over time. If instead, you are inquiring as to the terms and conditions for embassies, those are negotiable, depending on your nation's needs.

Blood Moon Goblins
08-08-2005, 00:07
The Kingdom of Blood Moon would be quite happy to grant you space in Gundabad for your embassy, and would be equally pleased to drop a few Goblins off in Krioval.
Of course, we should let you know that an embassy in Gundabad would not be able to use any ground vehicles, since Gundabad is, in fact, built into a mountain. For a small construction fee though, we can construct a helipad. Other than that there is an airport close by which can handle your private jets for a minimal maintenance fee.

Acceptance terms are modest, see the following list:

Embassy Exchange

Mutual Defence Pact - The only restriction we must place on this item is a prefrence to Federated Klatchian Coast states, we will not be able to assist in your defence you if a conflict is initiated between you and a state within the FKC.

Prefered Status (explosives) - Nobody beats Goblins for high quality, cheap explosives. We can provide however much of whatever you want for a better price than anybody else.
(If prefered status is asking too much too early, we would be content with a lesser treaty, perhaps simply 'favoured status'.)

Other terms you wish to include will be considered.

We realize that not all nations accept the existance of Goblins in the modern scene, it is a sad fact of the so-called 'modern world' that non-humans simply are not accepted in some areas. If this is the case in your nation, as we sincerly hope it is not, we withrdaw all above claims and will sever contact ASAP.

To all nations applying:

Krioval must apologize for some apparent confusion. In listing all of the possible diplomatic agreements possible, we forgot to mention that advanced arrangements, including military proposals, require that we have had reasonable success with a nation before entering into them, at least over long periods of time. For nations with whom we do not yet have embassies or trade routes, we should begin there and see how things develop.

As such, if Krioval has no prior contact with a nation, we cannot offer diplomatic agreements stronger than non-aggression pacts and civilian rights of passage. We are always open to strong trade relations.

OOC:

If a nation is only a few days to a few weeks old, I have no idea how militaristic (or selective) that nation will be when it comes down to it. As such, it'd be kind of silly for Krioval to form military alliances with small nations that might drag Krioval into large international conflicts. I will, however, keep track of who is actively interacting with me on the forums (this counts as "interaction" from a national standpoint), and I'll consider alliances at that point. I originally meant for military alliances to be seriously considered by nations who already know Krioval from the forums. Sorry about not stating that earlier.

To the Kingdom of Blood Moon:

Krioval finds your proposals largely acceptable. At present, we feel that it would be best to limit a mutual defense pact to logistical support only until we better bridge the differences between our two cultures, should any exist. We will immediately cancel any import duties on your nation's explosives and clear our companies to begin purchases. Is there anything that your Kingdom requires of Krioval? Our largest export sectors are in electronics, manufactured goods, and vehicles of various types. We thank you for your acceptance.

OOC: Krioval is future-tech, though we play with just about anybody who can deal with that. Thus, goblin kingdoms are perfectly OK by us! :D
Tanara

The Interstellar Empire of Tanara would greatly appreciate an exchange of Ambassadors. The Honourable Lady Michiko Jones, Dowager Empress has been appointed as Ambassador, and will be presenting her credentials to the government of Krioval at the earliest convienence.

Also the Sovereign Empress Kaylinde Moore- Apollon, has been the support of both Houses, Upper and Lower, in seeking both an Interstellar Military Alliance and Interstellar Free Trade Alliance as well. It is felt that this will be highly beneficial to both nations.

Tanara is well known for it's bio technology, advanced cyber systems (A.I.'s), nano technology and starcraft drive propulsions systems. We also have numerous nearby star systems with planets suitable for colonization.

Electronics would be excellent, it is something that Blood Moon rather lacks due to...imprecision on the part of the average Goblin on the street.
Other than that, we can offer you discount troll-hunting liscenses, and of course there is our bounty on Klatchian Giant Roaches.
But that said, we find your proposal acceptable.

Due to our overwhelming affection for the nation of Tanara and its inhabitants, Krioval accepts all offers as they stand. The Commander will see to it that all provisions are passed as quickly through the Senate as befit our friends in Tanara. We will be sending Yoshi Takahara to represent the Armed Republic when it is convenient for our hosts.
