Alliance for the Preservation of Civilization (APOC)

Overview

The Alliance for the Preservation of Civilization is a large coalition of prominent nations whose goals are stated in the alliance title: the preservation of civilization. As war and political strife ravage across the globe, the nations of APOC have chosen to make their glorious stand.

APOC consists of the majority of both CAD and Sovereign League nations, creating a very lethal force. Though we may come from different philosophies and creeds, the nations of APOC stand united as a front against all who would threaten such a noble ideal; this ideal is that of a world in which barbarous notions such as collectivist economies and the like are non-existent.

Nations once on the brink of full-scale war- with the potential to bring bloodshed the likes of which the world has never seen –have united in friendship under the APOC banner. As a result of this, the Alliance has at its disposal a near-infinite reservoir of financial, industrial, and military strength.

OCC: Are you accepting new members? And do you have requirements? Also, what are our duties to the alliance?

OOC: I think I joined in August or something, but that might've been unofficial...anyway, I'd like to join.

You forgot me, dooms :(

Aren't I in this?

While at this time His Majesty’s Government has no interest in joining the organisation as a full-fledged member, I write to inquire as to the possibility of creating a dialogue between the Alliance and the United Kingdom through the appointment of an observer or ambassador to represent His Majesty’s Government.

The United Kingdom supports the underlying principle of the organisation, that is, attempting to draw together sovereign states ordinarily opposed to each other in accordance to differences in political philosophies if not religious differences.

His Majesty’s Government cannot condone the ideal expressed by the Alliance, however, the structure of the alliance may afford the United Kingdom and the member states a venue within which discussions and negotiations can occur that would not otherwise be possible due to aforementioned differences. This possibility alone outweighs any tacit support for said ideal that the dispatch of an observer by the United Kingdom may imply.

On behalf of the glorious, enlightened Alliance for the Preservation of Civilization, The Empire inquires as to which ideal, specifically, Azazia has chosen to take issue with? Surely the assembly of great nations in the name of preserving general world stability through both force of arms and diplomatic negotiation, not to mention economic cooperation serves to support as noble ideals as any, and ones against which no stable and civilized state would stand.

In any event, however, the Empire herself takes no issue with the appointment of an Azazian ambassador, and will bring the possibility to light in discussion with her fellow APOC member states, though no definitive answer will be at the moment given.

Oh, expect 'it' to be brung as quickly as we figure out exactly which 'it' would be best suited to the occasion. Perhaps the standard, conventional 'it,' or maybe the chemical 'it,' or the international humiliation 'it.'

We eagerly await for you to stop being indesicive, figure out what you want, and follow through with it.

We must inquire to what qualifies to join this alliance

"On the face of it, to your average layman, APOC seems like a perfectly good idea. However, the people of MassPwnage are conscientiously opposed to the idea of civilization altogether ; the definition is rather constricting, and tends to conform far too much to the ideals of...well....some racist 19th Century colonialist, possibly wearing a monocle. You know, the sort of guy bent on spreading "Jaysus" or something for his so called "god" and country. And is "civilization" then even worth preserving? APOC brings peace to its member nations.... so....whatever works for you... and there's plenty of opportunity for war against those sorts of crazy people like Gholgoth or.... other people. Plenty of fiscal opportunities as well. You know what, fuck it, we want in, you all have this really, really cool flag."-The Great Leader Li

We'd like to be informed of what one must do to be included in this alliance before we make a decision to join.

On behalf of the glorious collection of APOC member states, the Empire will make it clear that the APOC is not seeking new members, and will state now that if the Alliance was interested in your participation, we would have already contacted you in private. In other words, you don't call us, we call you.

The APOC has found the Pwnage nation to be in keeping with the standards to which all APOC nations are held, and welcomes you warmly into our midst.

The KLM makes its offically stance on this matter

"We want in, damn it!"

It is the position of His Majesty’s Government that fundamental to the institution of diplomacy and foreign relations is the concept of sovereignty; and while the United Kingdom, in the interest of liberalism, prefers laissez-faire or minimally regulatory economic systems within those states with which the UK does business, should the government, preferably on the behest of the democratically-voiced wishes of her citizenry, find the need to impose un-necessary regulation or other controls on the national economy it is the fundamental right of a sovereign state to do so.

Our slight issue with the Alliance for the Preservation of Civilisation is its implied intent to reverse those sovereign wishes of such states termed as ‘collectivist’ economies. While His Majesty’s Government lauds the decision of the esteemed governments of the Alliance to set aside their differences and work towards the common goal of peace, prosperity and general stability it is the position of this government that such goals cannot come with the abandonment of the fundamental principle of national sovereignty as briefly outlined above. This concern, however, it should be stated does not entail the use of arms to reverse such states if said states prove the aggressor in any and all armed conflict but rather limits itself to an aggressive pursuit of such ideals without just cause or provocation.

Nonetheless, we are pleased that the Imperial Department of Foreign Relations, on the behalf of the Alliance, has no qualms with the appointment of an Oceanian ambassador to the organisation. We look forward to improving the dialogue between the United Kingdom and the constituent states of the Alliance.

We understand. Thank you for considering us. We wish you luck on this matter.

((OOC: Aye. You should probably just surrender to us now.))

OOC: And how do you plan on preserving civilization, exactly?

[OOC: Praetonia is also a member.]

OOC: And how do you plan on preserving civilization, exactly?

OOC: This is to counter the GASN/Gholgtoh MDP or that is what I think. And I find it strange with the members of this alliance. They just don’t mix like water and oil.

((OOC: No OOC comments unless you're a member and have something very important to say.))

[OOC: No it's really not, APOC has been around since back in september, we just finally revealed it to the world. It is guessed that after the doomingslandi/questers/czardas and aralonian war the powers involved and allies to those involved made one big secret alliance.]

OOC: An alliance which, needless to say, is probably the most badass thing ever to hit II.

Official Stance of the Board of Directors (encrypted and, you know, shit)

We have decided that we, representing Steelia, would like to be considered an advisory/auditory party to the Alliance of Preservation of Civilisation. We feel that Steelia can serve the interests of APOC well, as one of the world's largest mercenary corporations. To further discuss this the Board of Directors will contact Doomingslandi Emperor Maximus over a secure communication service known as the Multinational Internet-based Reciprocative Conversation (or mIRC).

~ The Board of Directors ~

An ornate color fax was sent to the APOC main office. It appeared to have originally been written on parchment, with a quill pen. And parchment meant only one nation....

Salutations Brothers in arms!
I have recently learned of your Alliance for the Preservation of Civilization, and have seen through recent events the stance that its members take in many situations. Over these past few weeks, I have long pondered the possibility of applying to your organization for membership, as I see the alliance following many of the same ideals held so close by No Endorse.

In light of all that I have seen and heard, I humbly request that No Endorse be admitted into this Alliance. We might not be the largest nation, nor are we the strongest, but we are determined to uphold Logic and the Human Intellect, and will not spare any expense in destroying the forces of inferiority, corruption, and ignorance. As it is in nature, must be now, for the inferior must fall to ensure the continuing growth of the species.

OOC: And how do you plan on preserving civilization, exactly? By destroying all the EBIL commies of course. Like 90% of the groups out there.

Because executing someone for jaywalking is civilized, while making people work for the collective is barbaric.

On Behalf of the Alliance for the Preservation of Civilization:

Mr. Atal Amner,

While we of the Alliance for the Preservation of Civilization do certainly appreciate your views and sentiments on the necessity for the preservation of the natural way and thus the elimination of the weak and unconditioned, it is my duty to inform you, on behalf of the Imperial Department of Foreign Relations, that APOC is not officially accepting open applications for membership at the moment. However, due to your Darwinian view on the world at large which the Empire holds itself in accordance with, I will bring your case to light in discussion with fellow Alliance members.

With respect,

((OOC: That's cool. My job's to tell people not to post requests for membership, though, so if you've already gotten permission, don't mind me giving you the company line.))

The Dictorship of Zachyd Wishes to join this glorious alliance and wishes to contribute in any way possible.

As a founding members of the original APOC, Borman Empire wonders why they have not been included on the member list already.

((OOC: Aye. You should probably just surrender to us now.))

OOC: I certainly would, that's one impressive collection of nations that make me shake with fear....all under one banner. I'll never prat with you guys!

IC: The Stevidian Government will watch this alliance closely with curiosity and with caution. Such an alliance of powerful nations grouped under one banner with such huge and powerful defenses is a shocking and incredible thing.

We know you do not enlist nations that ask to join and so we will not waste your time time doing so. But we will keep political tabs on the alliance seeing as it is a real political, military and economical force to be feared.

Stevidian Parliamentary Government
