Cafenia overthrows government; seeks allies and trade

Bullets were whizzing by the whitewashed buildings on this bright, sunny, tropical day. On the island of Cafenia, the colonial viceroy looked out from his air-conditioned office. He saw below him his palace guards desperately firing their last Kalashnikov rounds at the oncoming mob of rebels.

"Viceroy," said his assistant as he burst into the room, out of breath. "We cannot hold out much longer."

"Get my chopper ready," the viceroy said. "Let's get out of here."

The viceroy and his assistant walked to the upper level of the palace, and boarded a helicopter. The rotor blades started turning, and soon the chopper was off. The last guards, seeing this, quickly surrendered.

Victorious throngs of rebels danced in the street with local civilians. Their leader, Raoul Gonzalez, quickly got up to the top of the palace, and adressed his supporters.

"Today, Cafenia has declared its independence. All five million of our citizens are now free! What a glorious day for our nation, my comrades!"

The supporters cheered. Gonzalez, now the President of Cafenia, took his position in the air conditioned office of the old viceroy.

A message was soon sent to the international community. The newly founded nation of Cafenia would is now free of imperialistic influence. Now, our nation seeks to rebuild itself. We need more powerful nations to provide aid for our development; our people are poor farmers who live in shacks without heathcare or food. We need weapons with which to defend ourselves; not much, just some good, cheap, and easy to maintain rifles, mortars, machine guns and anti-tank missiles, and some trucks. Perhaps even some tanks, aircraft, and small ships, but not that much; stuff that would be easy for our army to maintain. If you're nations are willing to provide that for us, our nation is perfectly able to provide cash crops. Most of our nation's farmers produce coffee, as our nation was originally a colonial coffee plantation, and we would be willing to provide coffee to industrialized nations for only fifty cents per pound.

Thank you for your time and understanding,

Raoul Gonzales
Presidente of Cafenia

OOC: Morg, you just godmoded this country, that's fubar man. try that post again unless you previously arranged it.

IC:
The Amerathians made a note back..

"We would be willing to lend aid. We could provide a few of our armorments or supervisors for military practices. But first, we'd have to work a deal.. perhaps a meeting between two of our ambassadors? They would have much to talk about, our nation could use a trade agreement for crops, civilian materials, and other house-hold materials. Please consider deeply.
-Grand Empire of Amerath
-Consular Conkar"

The Amerathians were far away, and so the need to post any of the personel doing anything at this moment was not needed.

To: Raoul Gonzales, Presidente of Cafenia
From: Anatole Solei, Chief of Diplomatic Relations for Kageshima

Dear Sir,

The Island Dominion of Kageshima is not a militaristic nation, and maintains a policy of neutrality in international politics. However, we are willing to offer your country financial aid in the form of a trade agreement. Recognizing that there is no cash crop that our country produces which you would desire or could afford to import, we would, never the less, be interested in importing coffee from your nation, as it is considered a very rare, but popular drink within our borders.

Please notify us if this would be advantageous to you.
Cordially yours,
Anatole Solei

Messages were sent to both Amerath and Kageshima:

Our country would be very interested in the development aid your nations will provide. We will send ambassadors to both of your nations to furthur discuss our relations. Would either of you be interested in exhanging embassies?

Two small planes departed Cafenia, one for Amerath and one for Kageshima. On board were the Cafenian ambassadors, with samples of Cafenian coffee and an offer for trande and development aid agreements.

To Cafenia:

We await your ambassadors despite this short notice, and will make embassy arrangements for them. We are currently very busy with preparations for the Solstice Festival, but we will ensure that your diplomatic team is settled in comfortably. Please let us know when they will be arriving. We will wait until after the festival in order to dispatch a team of diplomats to establish an embassy in your nation.

The Consular who was to meet the Cafenian (?) Ambassador stood quietly in an airport near one of the shore-towns of Amerath. He was dressed in the Red and Black suit of the Amerathi Army. Under his arm he held a briefcase of topics to discuss and samples of military and civilian material.

Meanwhile, in the air next to the Cafenian aircraft, there appeared a black and red jet with the Amerathi Crest on it. The pilot could be seen in the clear cockpit looking at this strange aircraft.. He made an attemptive hail..

"Cafenian Aircraft.. You are required to follow me into the local air-base. Please change your heading to follow me. Welcome to Amerath."

With that, the small jet turned and began to move in a more southern direction, making for the airfields of the Konskan Base.

To: The Office of the President of Cafenia
From: David IV, Emperor of Yiddisherland

We are not pleased with your decision to rebel from imperial control, and must therefore sympathise with your mother country. We are afraid that our own island colonies will choose to rebel against our control, following in your example. For this reason we must officially condemn your separation and offer assistance to your mother country in the blockade of your nation until such time as you choose to return to its control.
