WAR!

Today, at 8:30 AM, the "Big Four" corporations declared that a corporate war would be taken against the Royale Group, plc. The corporations in the "Big Four" are in order from largest to smallest: Bucktooth Beaver Oil, MacroSoft, Atlantis Airlines, and Crown Jewels. From the CEO of Bucktooth Beaver Oil, inc. at a meeting with Imperial President Teddy Jefferson during his post-inauguration party: "The Royale Group, plc should sell all of its' corporate bases in Nova Brittanica, or face a costly corporate war which it will undoubtedly lose." No comment has been returned from the Royale Group, plc. as of now.

Sega Corporation despises the Royale Group. However, we have no militia of our own, thanks to the tedious government. We donate 1 billion USD to each corporation.

"Whores. Who do they think they are?" asked the CEO, slamming his hand on his desk. "Lower all of our prices, now. I don't care if we operate a loss, raise domestic prices, then. I want our military on full alert as well. Arm the Nova Brittanican branches."

In the Nova Brittanican headquarters, guards and military personnel grabbed their heavy arms and advanced equipment, and prepared for all out war.

'Deploy our special forces, once everyone is dead strip the place of anything worth monetary value then tactically destroy the Nova Britainican headquarters using a tactical cruise missile.'

'Yes sir, by your command.'

As a Clandonian Corporation C-5 Galaxy and Super-Danskeran class were launched in this operation the rest of the Corporations military were moving out of Clandonia, expelled from their home nation to the radioactive lands of the former nation of Galation.

As a C-5 Galaxy unloaded 200 members of the elite XY troops, genetically manufactored using Kraven Corporation breeding chamber technology the Corporation had amassed a force of ten divisions of these for their security forces. Now it was time to see how well they did in battle.

"Mister Imperial President, I think it's time we stepped in. Not because of the weapons, but the job loss." the Minister of Economics said.

"Well, what do you want me to do?" Teddy Jefferson responded angrily.

"Perhaps, force the Big Four to resume trade with British Londinium?" the Minister of Economics countered.

"Very well. Make it happen." Imperial President Teddy Jefferson said, waving off the Minister of Economics.

We do not care about the weapons. We ask that you re-open the automobile plants. Also, we are afraid we cannot let you take control of the "Big Four", or even Bucktooth Beaver Oil, inc. We will pay you for all money that has been spent on this "war", as well as an additional ten billion USDs.

The CEO of Crown Jewels, Hale Satin, steps up to the podium.

"Hello, I am Hale Satin, and I am here to represent the Big Four. This 'war' against the Royale Group, plc. has shown us two things. The first is, the Big Four has incredible customer loyalty. The second, the Big Four isn't the ruler of Nova Brittanica's economy. To fix this problem, we attempted to push the Royale Group, plc. out. However, the government has stopped us from doing this. So now, we offer a new way to make the Big Four be the ruler of the economy of Nova Brittanica. We offer the Royale Group, plc. a seat on the Big Four, to be changed to the Big Five."

Hale Satin then stepped down from the podium.

Dear Sir,
I find it amusing that fight through corporations instead of through military force. Although we ourselves are capitalists, this is out of hand. The proud Constantinalian people fight with tanks and guns, not through funding.

Perhaps if it was not corporations trying to legally get control of another, and instead government against government. We are happy that the Constantinalian people kill each other with tanks and guns, instead of simply buying the other corporation. Clearly a sign of an advanced civilization.

Once again, perhaps if there was an enemy to be defeated. The Big Four and Royale Group, plc. was simply going through a scuffle over who controls the economy of Nova Brittanica. If the government had wanted to destroy the Royale Group, plc. we would have invaded them. But we did not want them to be killed. Personally, I find your lack of education on what happened between the Royale Group, plc. and the Big Four disgusting.

What else would a government do? We're fixing roads, maintaining weapons, catching criminals, and many other things. I am sorry about the uneducated comment, I was in a hurry. I meant, get educated about what went on between the Royale Group, plc. and the Big Four, then you can cast your opinion.
