Free Palau is a breakaway nation on the island of Koror in Palau. Any international relations for Koror will be dealt with in here. It is a separate nation, completely unrelated to Elephantum.

Free Palau has made an alliance with Eastasia (Marimaia), and Palau State Airlines fly to 5 cities in Eastasia

We would like to exchange embassies and military bases with the Ten Sultanates.

Acutally, were twelve now (Kurdistan and Central India were recently established, but thats not important)

We are uncertain of establish bases at this point, although a facility in the Pacific would be ideal. We would be willing to exchange it for a facility in India, Antarctica, or the Middle East, presuming we signed a non-agression pact of duration equal to that of the lease. Regardless, we would be willing to exchange an Embassy in Kreynorapolis and a consulate in Djibouti for an embassy in Manama and a consulate(s) in the city(ies) of your choice (see above list, each is the capital of a Sultanate. If we exchange military bases, I would recommend building the consulate(s) in the same sultanate as the base(s)

We will be willing to establish an embassy and base in Kuwait.

The military is uncertain of why you would want one in Kuwait, as it is located near the center of the country. You would be surrounded my too much Elephanti territory for it to be of any use. The neighboring Sultanates of Arabia and Iraq offer more promise, as do Iran, Kurdistan, and Jordan.

(ooc-a base in Kuwait doesnt really do you any good, unless you wanted to attack me with it. How are the rest of the conditions?)

Ic- If possible, we would like to establish a small naval facility, mostly for refueling, with a small garrison of troops and a small airstrip in Hawaii.

Although Bjornoya has no reasonable site for a military base (unless in E.Guinea) we would like to establish an embassy and perhaps a few consulates.

We have a proposal for embassies and Consulates.

Is that acceptable?

TLS-I'd suggest building a consulate in Mosul, captial of Kurdistan. Aside from that, Ill take care of it now.

Bjorn-How about an embassy trade (dont know your capital) and a consulate in Malabo, capital of EG? We would be willing to put a base on Ilsa de Corisco in EG actually. Would you like one in Elephantum, or should we pay you?

Ok, get rid of Tikrit and replace it with Mosul.

Deal, my capital is Esthar (Archangelsk) in Archangelsk Oblast. Pack warm clothing.

I'll set up a base in Elephantum, probably in the Middle East if possible and you may do so on Isla de Corisco.

Where were you thinking about? Kurdistan, Jordan, Iran, and Arabia are all ideal places, depending on what you're looking for. A naval facility? airbase? to protect shipping? do i have neighbor you're not on great terms with?

Do you have a region close to the Red Sea? Ships would travel through there to reach my terrtories in the Pacific. Jordan would probably be the best. I'll set up an air-base there.

Ok, an air base in Jordan, probably near Aqaba if you want to Red Sea coverage.

Do you mind if Bjornoya sets up a cultural exchange program in Aqaba?

What would said program entail?

Also, to everyone, Koror is a new possible location for consulates

Presentation of Bjornoyan culture (religious, scientific, legal etc.) and a place where Bjornoya could be presented Elephanti culture. To ease any tension on the native citizenry due to a foreign presence within the area.
And the appropriate way of spelling our nation's capital Esthar ;)

We would agree to such a program

Also, my previous post declaring Koror, Palau, an acceptable location for consulates is now void, as Koror is going to become an independent nation, and is in the midst of rebellion. However, any international relations for Koror will be posted here.

Mwhaha! my plan to steal the recipe for the ultimate baba ghannouj is under-way...

Sorry, only a member of the council of twelve sultans has access to such classified material.

OOC: Hey Eleph, you remember what we talked about a while ago? The military base (air force, navy?) near Hammerfest, Finnmark, Norway in exchange for a military base? I'd like for it to be located near Dubai, UAE. If it's OK, then I'd like for the base to be a base with at least one 3000 meter runway and space enough for a Marine Brigade. If it could be near the seafront so I can put a pier in there too then that would be great!

Also, I'd like to propose consulates in each others nations. For your embassies in Cotland, I would propose the following.

Oslo
Bergen
Hammerfest
Cairo
Alexandria
Valetta
Moscow
Rostov
Grosny (Chechnya, a Cottish protectorate)


In exchange, I'd like consulates in the following places:

Dubai
Teheran
Baghdad
Riyadh
Amman
Bangalore
Kuwait City

Do we have a deal?

In order to prevent charges of espionage or sabotage, we give you the land, and you build what you want, using Elephanti workers if you wish. While we do not have a law against foriegn countries bringing WMDs into their bases, as it is effectively their sovergn territory, we would like to make sure you understand we do not use them ourselves.

One minor change I might suggest as well.

Bangalore is the capital of the Karnataka State of the Sultanate of Central India. While you are free to have the consulate there, Madras/Chennai, the capital of Southern India, and Hyderabad, the capital of Central India, are both more important, are bigger centers of commerce, and have more government facilities. For now we will list Bangalore, but we will change it if you wish.

Just to make sure, your capital is Cotlandstad (moscow?)?

OOC: Eh, yeah you can change it to Madras/Chennai. As for the consulates, I'll be building it using Elephanti workers and Cottish engineers if that's OK with you. The legations will be on about five to ten diplomats (consule and attaches), ten secretaries, ten - twenty micellanious (sp?) workers and fourteen Marines for protection each. For the larger and more important cities, the legations will probably be a bit bigger. As for the WMDs, no problem. I won't store any in the base, nor will I bring any in even in transit.

Yes, my capital is Cotlandstad, but its not Moscow. Its listed on RL maps as Kazan/Kasan (not sure how your map spells it) and it's located in the middle of Russia. It'll probably change pretty soon to Oslo though, just so you know.

As long as you dont have the entire Eigth Cottish Army crammed into your embassy (unless 14 marines are the entire 8th army) I'm fine. Who's there, who builds it, and just about everything else is completely up to you.

We would like to exchange embassies with you. We offer a placement of your embassy in Voronej our capital and expect to place ours in your capital. Our embassy will consist off 20 diplomats, 17 general staff (cooks, janitors, etc.), and 15 soldiers from the 1st Guards army for protection. Machinery wise we would like to bring a civilian HV-12 transport helicopter and an BA-122 armored bus.

-Peter Pavlov, head of the sub-committee on relations with nation of Elephantum, Ministry of Foreign Policy, message approved by Communist Party Committee hearing which took place on october 2, 2005.

OOC: Voronej i am talking about is not the RL city you can see on the map its a made up city placed in the north eastern part of my nation which is mostly located in syberia.

We would find this acceptable, as long as we are allowed to maintain one CH-47 helicopter, along with a pair of cars, one armored. Also, our 12 man security detail would not be military personnel, but Royal Guard. (Sort of like how the US Secret Service isn't military, but cooler than the Secret Service)

LOL! No problem, the 8th Army remains at home. As for the Marines, they are there only for protection, and for looking cool when admitting visitors to the embassy/consulate. Also, I'd like to station a few cars, like two M998 Humvees, two Chevrolet Suburbans and a Mercedes S-class at each consulate. So, we have a deal?

Fine by me. A retooling of locations will come in your end of an empire thread.

The changes in diplomatic legations

Oslo will become the embassy instead of Cotlandstad, and Moscow and Rostov are Cottish/Norwegian no more. Also, the E2 name is Norway.

BUMP for tls to update carthaginian republic embassies

Well, it's pretty much the same. Of course, Carthage is now unified, so all the places all belong to the Merchant Prince faction. Also, now that I have control of New Zealand, you can put one in New Makkah (formerly Christchurch).
