The People of PROHT (a brief overview):

The guys in the Government:
Prime Minister “Wimptastic”
“The sane one”

Minister of Defense : Major General Major Major
The inept and unwitting pawn in all things considered. He is deemed by Prime Minister Wimptastic to be, expendable.
Was formerly also Minister of Foreign affairs.

Minister of Foreign affairs: Hubert A. Pinkerton (http://brownsteins.net/Ulpan/Images/Moshe%20Dayan.jpg)
Replaced Major Major in this department, constant friction between them. But they generally agree with each other after certain amounts of 'leverage' was used.

Minister of Commerce\ Minister of Human Resources: Milo
(Major Major's pet cat, former human resources director of unseccessful company)
Corrupt as can be, sells lives for money, makes side jobs, is secretly planning a coup; Prime Minister Wimptastic knows this, but chooses to keep him because of his spotless service record.
<<<Currently PROHT's new Leader>>>

Have improved Submarines to Block II catagory, added turrets to APCs and HMMWVs. Some of my transports have been refitted as auxillary Aircraft Carriers.

Undergoing tests of new hyper velocity cannon on one of them (the biggest problem is handling recoil, have added self deploying "recoil spades" to prevent boats from moving backwards, or sinking during higher angles of fire).

PROHT is now making their CBW production public!


Designation - name - description
Biological
A - Anthrax - (Bacteria, Gram positive, vey hardy, survives explosions) Dirt poision, few symptoms, 25% fatal
B - Botulism toxin/bacteria - paralysing agent, secondary agent, normally fatal
T - Tulerimia - (bacteria, gram positive) Incapacitant, blister agent, 50% fatal if untreated in 48 hrs, few symptoms
V - Venezualian Equine Encyphilitis - (Virus) brain disease, very infectious, simalar to meningitis
H - HIV - (Virus) augments fatality rate of other diseases
E - Ergot - (Fungus) psycoactive fungi, "wheat rot" caused riot of 51 in France.
Chemical
CS - Tear gas - RCA agent
L - LSD - psychoactive, our "truth drug", essentially refined Ergot, much as Heroin is refined Opium poppy.
HN - Nitrogen Mustard - Blister agent, has known mutagenic properties, has been known to pass through rubber, leather, cloth, is more persistant than HS or Slfur Mustard (there are two types)

PROHT production quotes (these are not quite weapons grade):
Designation - production per year
A - 10 tons
BT - 2 tons
BV - 1 ton
H - 60 lbs
E - 5 tons
CS - 2 tons
L - 1 ton
HN - 1 ton

PROHT does not consider A a viable bio weapon, it is mostly to be used to make combat more dangerous by infecting the soil, it is of the naturally occuring skin variaty.

International
the nation has recently been attributed to the funding of terrorist organizations
Amnesty International condemns PROHT for their lack of relief ad and for ignoring crimes against humanity

Transportation:
a vast monorail network carries people all over the country, but only the wealthy can afford them, and cars have been banned

Medical:

organ donation is compulsory
The psych wards are overflowing with transsexuals
Scientists recently cloned the long-extinct feather-bellied dodo and ‘dododogs’ both of which live side by side n wildlife presserves
Otherwise healthy people are being sent to internment camps just because they have STDs


School:

School uniforms are compulsory
the studies of art and philosophy are banned as libraries are bulldozed to make way for internet cafés
ethnic minorities are often refused admission to some of the nation's best schools
almost half of the child population live rough on the streets and schools have extensive counseling programs for troubled students
Children are brainwashed at a young age to accept "Love and peace!" alongside “Hurt ‘em Plenty!” as a way of life, while angst-filled teenagers are rushing off to buy government bonds for some odd reason.
record sales of 'child-whacking sticks' have been recorded, and children as young as eight can be found working in factories
Teachers are routinely tested to keep their jobs and teenagers are sent to jail for being out too late
Teenagers are using semaphore due to the children’s ban on cell phones, and are expected to be proficient in at least five languages

Business

the government is notorious for leaving citizens with almost nothing from their inheritance, as senior citizens can usually be found doing heavy manual labour, since door-to-door salesmen are frequently beaten up by 'vigilantes'
citizens are allowed to rise or fall based on their own merits, and local executives are seen on the corner with cardboard signs reading, "will oppress the masses for food"
CDs are regularly copy-protected and the government is making attempts at curtailing the flood of Spam emails with little progress
prime commercial land is being swamped with archaeological teams but the government seizes all major gold finds
Government-run brothels can be found on every street corner and citizens must pay to enjoy Hurtful Thoughts' pristine beaches
Hurtful Thoughts' airwaves are dominated by corporate-backed commercial radio
corporations are forbidden from employing outside the nation <Overturned>

Crime

the government is cracking down on subversive groups, people regularly disappear off the streets and all evidence of them is destroyed, citizens are regularly arrested in queues for 'loitering'
The police force is rumoured to be made up of evil shadows with no souls
the government pours millions of "Thoughts" into rehabilitation programs annually
convicted felons are forced into slavery for their crimes, hundreds of thousands of convicts work as slaves in Hurtful Thoughts' many privately-owned prisons, called “Joycamps”
the right to free speech is being drastically curtailed as anti-environmentalist protesters are gunned down without mercy, one may protest only in specific locations, suppression of pro-democracy protests is a daily occurrence


Civil rights

the government has cut all subsidies to special interest groups
The Hurtian Enquirer offers weekly cash prizes for 'most blasphemous song, story, or cartoon'
citizens can be frequently spotted going about their business stark naked, streakers swamp all public events in order to bare it all, hence why nude art is becoming wildly popular
all news sources are under strict government control as public loudspeakers constantly tell citizens they are "happy people"
married couples must call each other "darling" or risk a fine, but polygamy is still legal since Hurtians are notorious for their infidelity
cheese has become the new icon of political dissent
notable individuals are granted land and titles

Environment:

A survey of the nation's rivers and children has shown that pesticide levels are at an all-time regional high
prime real estate is devoted to wind farms and solar energy generators
shanty towns are forming in the suburbs of major cities
a survey of the nation’s rivers and children has shown that pesticide levels are at an all-time regional high
every product goes through extensive safety-testing by the government

Food and Recreation:
Soylent products are an expensive commodity due to a lack of volunteers
'Mountain Doobie' is widely regarded as the nation's favorite drink
Meat is a luxury afforded only to the wealthy
The nation is experiencing a severe shortage of sporting events

Military

=============
The Issue:
After a series of bloody wars between the nations of Maxtopia and North Bigtopia, fights have broken out in the streets between immigrants in People’s Republic Of Hurtful Thoughts who came from the warring nations.

The Debate
I may be a quiet old man, but I believe that these ethnic disputes are none of the government's business. It's not our war anyway, so it's not our problem. I'm sure if you leave it alone, it'll work itself out.”

"It's not our war? It's not our war?" cries infamous Hurtian-born fascist Samuel Abraham
Roxanne. "Well maybe it's time it became our war! Hurtful Thoughts should take a more active, and by 'active' I mean 'hostile', role in international politics! This ethnic squabbling will be over when the war is over, and WE can end that war and purge the impure! Hurt 'em plenty!!

Pretty clear who won that one...

Recent events:
-The government has cut its subsidies for all special interest groups
-The national government has been dissolved by revolutionary insurgents
-Hurtful Thoughts was reclassified from "Compulsory Consumerist State" to "Capitalist Paradise".
-Politicians accepting drinks in bars are executed for taking bribes

Hurtful Thoughts
24-07-2006, 02:04
Well, that district is a bit run down since that area is designated as a "free speech" zone, and therefore anything goes in there.

Therefore we will not be able to give you any security in that area without completely messing up the political system.

We will however offer you a private mountain resort for the exchange of embassies. With this option we may fuly garauntee the safety of your diplomats within the compound.

But if you insist on setting up in Hurtful Square, we can't really do anything to stop you.

OOC: The 1st post is a relic left over from my early days, experimenting with smileys and everything...

If I ever get around to it, I'm not ever going to try mixing factbooks and embassies...

For some reason it makes people think The People's Republic of Hurtful Thoughts is some military oriented warmonger...

I've always thought of you as more trying to do good in the world, like me. Thats why I want an embassy.

IC:

That would be a good reason to not put one there then wouldn't it? The Resort sounds very nice, and will be honored to use it. However, we shall use our Marine Corps to provide security, as that is customary for us. Thank you for your offer.

Still trying to figure out how you can legitimatelly claim that.

First: ICly you have not a clue who bombed you. So stop accusing nations at random for selling a particularily good bargain brand stealth planes.

2nd I'm just giving aid w/o asking permission.
RL countries do that all the time.

3rd: Who is backstabbing, I drop a few bombs a little off target and you call me a terrorist.
Then you declare war on me (even though you have no government to declare wars with [I am trying to rectiify that]).

Thank You for choosing People's Republic Of Hurtful Thoughts.

Looks at all the body armor on NS, followed by the massive sizes of gun calibers (like the .450 Pheonix, a necked down .50 BMG round).

Strongly considers rechambering Hurtian stocks of 5.56 x 45 mm ammo up to 7.62 x 52 mm. [the CM-16 will not be able to take the strain of the 11 mm (P)]

Starts masnufacturing CM-26 battle rifles (.308 caliber) and strts designing a larger caliber service rifle.

Also dusts off the jigs and tools used to manufacture the CM-240 Medium Machine gun.

Looks into body armor (Hurtian troops have almost completely lacked armor besides their helmet, shovel, and gun), starts experimenting to get a body armor capable of withstanding a long range shot with 14.7 mm AP ammunition.

Liquid body armor with reinforced ceramic inserts ought to work as a class III or IV Body armor...

Modernizing Tactical Air wing:
Addition:

'A-21' Jagaur HT [From SEPECAT] (http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/row/jaguar.htm)
Crew: One
Length: 16.83 m (55 ft 3 in)
Wingspan: 8.69 m (28 ft 6 in)
Height: 4.92 m (16 ft 1 in)
Wing area: 24 m² (258 ft²)
Empty weight: 7,000 kg (15,400 lb)
Loaded weight: 11,000 kg
Max takeoff weight: 18,000 kg

Powerplant: 1× F414 afterburning turbofan with Pulse detonating bypass ducts. (65/85/115 Kn thrust)

Performance:
Maximum speed: Mach 1.8 (limited to subsonic when carrying bombload)
Range: 750 miles combat, 2,500 miles ferry
Service ceiling: 50,000 ft (15,000 m)

Armament:
35 mm CC-35B cannon with 200 rounds
Five hardpoints for 5,000 kg of disposable stores
Option of four light AAMs on overwing and wingtip pylons

Based on the old 1970's era SEPECAT Jaguar, the Hurtian produced version sports an improved engine and a simplified cockpit and HUD. The center console is dominated by a screen which normally shows what the nose mounted IR imager sees, this can be slewed to a laser designator for targeting both ground and air targets. This screen can also be cycled through weapons selection, and detailed reports on aircraft performance, and navigation.

The HUD shows where the laser disignator is pointed, and reads basic avionics at a glance.

To the sides of the glass screen display, are basic dials and gauges to give the pilot vital aircraft information in the event of a massive power failure.

Bomb release is stick mounted, with manual dashbord override in the event of power failure.

The targeting system allows for the pilot to engage 3 targets simultaniously (2 laser/IR and one manual), more if fire and forget missiles and 'rapid fire' techniques are used. Semi-active RADAR seeking missiles can be slewed to the tail mounted RADAR warning reciever and ECM package to fire automaticly.

10 squadrons shall be outfitted with this plane.

Hardpoints:

Well Harvey,

We have a few locations available.
You may switch betwen each of them as you see fit.

House Number 1:
One is a 2 story Stucco-Concrete Mini-mansion of roughly 8,000 sq ft (excluding 1,000 sq ft courtyard), plus stables and pasture capable of supporting 3 horses. Building footprint is 8,000 sq ft.

Convienences include:
Running water
Electricity (Generator, batteries, and wind derived)
A nearby stream
An icebox/root cellar
Gas HVAC and lighting
T1 Internet connection to town
Gates

This building is located roughly five kilometers north-east of Kampfenburg alongside an dirt road.

House number 2:
An earth home with built in nuclear bunker, includes a small motor-pool for servicing one small vehicle (light aviation or a truck).

Located 250 kilometers from the nearest village.

House Number 3:
A random studio [safehouse] under constant armed survaillence located within Kampfenburg, location shifts bi-monthly. We shall not discuss what these rooms feature for fear that your ambassador could be tracked down and shot by rebels.

House number 4:
A rustic wooden barracks formerly used by the Hurtian Marines, refurbished after slight fire damage, the building is located on-base and is considered quite safe.

Unlike the others, this building is not located on the mainland, but instead on New Roanoke Island.

It should be noted, however, that the previous occupants went quite insane, as we pulled one of them out skinny-dipping, ten kilometers out at sea, in winter. When questioned, he claimed he was "trying to get home". He had also confessed to burning down the barracks after killing everyone inside, including two marines.

...

We counted 62 mutilated bodies surrounding those barracks, only three of them were armed...
We cleaned up the mess as best we could. As a precaution, all injuries and ailments should be reported to the base infermary, no matter how minor.

House Number 5:
A decommisioned offshore fortress. Includes helipad and weapons.
