SSIC:

Crvenkovski snickered as he read the reply from the Armenian president. How can such a fool believe that a nation with a Turkish majority would ever accept such a lie? But he had to lie when he could lie, he still felt the Armenian Genocide never happened. The facts were piled high on this one, but he felt that it wasn't exactly a genocide. He looked at his desk, cleared the chair the Armenian president would sit on of thumbtacks, (so he wouldn't hurt himself..) and put a loaded pistol in his desk. Situations with Armenians have been tricky, riots were across eastern Turkey and massacres against ethnic Turks still occured in Armenia to this day. Armenians were scum, the Serb thought. And if he played his cards right, they wouldn't exist any more.

IC:

The Serb waited at Constantine the Great Airport in Costantinople, awaiting the Armenian presidents arrival.

-----------
AS ARMENIA, NOT THE RUS
-----------

Robert Kocharian's plane landed on the tarmac of Constantine The Great airport in Constantinople, the plane quickly taxied and Kocharian made his way down the stairs at the reception comitiee. He had high hopes for this visit, but still had some doubts, could the Turks really be trusted?

Thousands of Turks were contained by Bulgarian police officers outside of the airport. They were angry-the government said the lie was true. Even if Napoleon Bonaparte said that 'history was a set of lies that we agree on', all Turks refused to agree on it.

"Ignore them, Mr. Kocharian. How was your flight?" He gestured the President into a limo.

-----------
AS ARMENIA, NOT THE RUS
-----------

Robert Kocharian's heeded the Turk's comment, and hoped that what he said was true, as he promtly followed him to the limo.

The limo drove up to a large hotel just outside of Constantinople, on the European side. Both men were escorted to an office room, Dragiša Crvenkovski gesturing the President to sit.

"Now, both of our nations have hated each other for a while. What can we do about that?"

Robert Kocharian sat down and answered Crvenkovski's question.

"I truly feel that our nations can prosper. A large publicity campaign shall have to be launched to avoid scenes like that at the airport today. I feel that trade agreements or joint military operations could also boost public opinion, both in the short term and the long term."

"Perhaps if Armenians and Turks coexisted in a union they would learn to get along. You must remember, it was not until 1915 that such a genocide had occured and that the Young Turks are not in power anymore."

"I find this proposition interesting, do go on"

"Your sarcasm bothers me." Crvenkovski added. "You know what I'm asking."

"Your sarcasm bothers me." Crvenkovski added. "You know what I'm asking."

Kocharian hopes faded in an instant, Turks will always be Turks, he thought. He borught his hand discretely in such a manner as to not arouse suspicion, but to be able to touch the panic button hidden is his clothes.

"I know what you are asking, and the answer is no."

"I know what you are asking, and the answer is no."

Crvenkovski smirked. "A true Armenian would never peacefully join Serbs, Bulgarians, or Turks an an effort to reach the Gulf. I hope you understand what might occur now." He shuffled some papers around. "Tea?"

Crvenkovski smirked. "A true Armenian would never peacefully join Serbs, Bulgarians, or Turks an an effort to reach the Gulf. I hope you understand what might occur now." He shuffled some papers around. "Tea?"

Kocharian pressed down the panic button with his left index finger 5 times, as rehearsed. The Armenian military would be alerted, but no movements would take place.

"No thank you, I think that I should make my leave now"

Crvenkovski sipped his tea. "Very well then, I guess all Armenians are the same. Very hasty people. Shall I call you a taxi to the airport?"

Outside of the office building, Turks were protesting. Chants were screamed calling for the end of the Armenian state. On the Turkish-Armenian border, the Balkan Union's force had finally been ready to mobilize. They waited for a phone call from the Prime Minister to move in.

"That won't be needed thank you, I have my own method of transportation"
Kocharian said, and with a short "Goodbye" he turned around and briskly went out, were a series of black sedans were to take him to the airport.

The Armenian miltiary had gone on alert, radars were up, scouts were scanning the horizon, and air force planes were taking off. If the Turks intended to invade Armenia, as Kocharian thought, they weren't going to simply walk in.

SIC:

Crvenkovski picked up his phone. "Go into Armenia, men."

The task force assembled simply walked into Armenia. F-4s flew over the nation, both Armenia and over Anatolia. The Anatolian's orders were to intercept the Armenian President's plane before he landed, not to kill. The Armenian-bound F-4s were to dump napalm over Yerevan and bomb the entire city.

What's going in:

150 Leopard 2A4 Tanks
350 M 60A3 TTS Tanks
200 T-72 MBT
20 M95 Degman MBT
40 K-9 howitzers
50,000 soldiers (Equipped with M4 carbines)
52 F-4 Phantom IIs

The howitzers were on the peaks of the border, firing at the city of Ejmiatsin. The tanks moved in as well, starting with the M60s, followed by the T-72s and the Leopards after. The soldiers marched on.

As Armenia, not the RUS

The "Turks", although they technically also included Balkanians, came over the border. Against every Turkish battery that opened fire, an Armenian one responded, 40 D-30 Howtizers had revealed their positions and fought against their turkish opponents. Soldiers dug in at key points on the frontier, were possible, on high-ground, engineers went out and mined every road they could.

Radar had picked up 40 fighter-sized aircraft heading towards Yerevan, later confirmed to be F-4 Phantoms. Fixed SAM batteries, in the form of S-75s, S-125s, and SA-4 Ganefs fired their missiles at the incoming aircraft.

Meanwhile, the fix-wing assets of the airforce, which had moved to the east, away from Turkey, was readiying itself the the need arised. However, the airforce was hopefully not going to be used, as, unlike the army, it was uncomparable to the Turkish force, boasting only 1 MiG-25 and 15 Su-25s. The helicopters however, had been earlier dispered among the more elite units of the army, and had been camoflaged far from the frontier.

With any luck, the Nagorno-Karabakh (NKR) Defense Army could be used, as it was a powerful force, and well equppied and trained with modern weaponry.

Ten F-4s crashed over Armenia and five were forced to turn back, the others shortly reaching Yerevan. They dropped their napalm and quickly moved west.

The tank forced moved deeper into Armenia, the Howitzers still firing at towns and cities in the west.

Balkan Union embassy, New York, American Empire
Minister of State John Bolton was an unhappy looking man, but in all honesty this man never looked happy. Being one of the highest officials in the most powerful country on Earth, he was constantly busy fighting the good fight against Communism on the home front. Communist groups were outlawed by his orders, and he began the largest purge of Communist influence on American society since the 1960s. Now, in 2007, that Communism had been purged from the Greater Empire, Bolton turned his attentions to fighting it on foreign lands. Actual American deaths were distasteful - far easier to let the men of the Balkans die, although an American helping hand is certainly appreciated.

He passed the security checks in the Balkan Union embassy, nodded to the secretary, and asked to speak to the Balkanese ambassador.

IN THE EMBASSY

"Yes, he can come in." Zoran Milosevic, nephew of the man with the same last name, spoke. "What seems to be troubling you, Mr. Bolton?"

Bolton sat down, and said, "Your nation has invaded Armenia, Mr. Milosevic. Now, normally, the American Empire is opposed to aggression and imperialism, but I see this is in a different manner. I see this is as a mere theatre of the overall fight against Communism in all it's forms, and America is willing to..lend a helping hand."

SSIC

Two Tu-22 Backfires were put on high alert and were loaded with two KLUB (NATO SS-N-27) Land attack cruise missiles each. Their markings had been covered up and they were on the runway waiting for the order to take off and head into the Black Sea towards Armenia.

Bolton sat down, and said, "Your nation has invaded Armenia, Mr. Milosevic. Now, normally, the American Empire is opposed to aggression and imperialism, but I see this is in a different manner. I see this is as a mere theatre of the overall fight against Communism in all it's forms, and America is willing to..lend a helping hand."

Milosevic looked at Bolton, trying not to giggle at his awesome moustache. "What kind of helping hand can we receive from America? Are we talking about aircraft?"

SSIC: To the RSFSR

We will give your our message when we need you to help. When you receive the note "Delta Eagle Bravo", then you are move into Armenia. Do not move until you receive the message.

SSIC to Balkan Union

When the order is sent, there are also two Moskva class guided missile cruisers on standby to fire more of the same missile. They will fire at selective targets in Armenia. Should there be any specific hits you want, let them be announced now to get the targeting solutions programmed before launch.

Kiwiland Statement to The Balkan Union

Cease your attacks on Armenian cities and civilians, or else we will be forced to intervene on behalf of our Caucasian brethrens.

With the Turkish army pushing into Armenia, what originated as an humanitarian mission to rescue the Chechens took a drastic turn. Upon confirmation with Expeditionary Force Commander General Narimori Uesugi Imperial HQ authorised the deployment of the following units to the Caucas:

- 6th Aviation and 7th Air Cavalry Brigades, First Osaka Division
- 6th Aviation Brigade, Second Vladivostok Division
- 6th Aviation Brigade, Sixth Irkutsk Division
- 6th Aviation Brigade, Eleventh Komsomolsk Division
- Twelfth Fukuoka Division



Additionally, the following units are being mobilised:

- 6th Augmented Artillery Brigades, First Imperial Guard Division
- Third Kyoto Division
- Ninth Okinawa Division
- 5th Artillery Brigade, Eighth Kemerovo Division

- Central Siberian Air Fleet
- 2nd West Siberian Fighter Squadron
- 3rd East Siberian Fighter Squadron

If you intervene, more harm will come to the Armenians. The war will be quick, and we will make sure little Armenian lives are harmed.

Our plan is to incorporate Armenia into our nation to protect them from communism's influence and from the communists in the Russian Soviet Federal Socialist Republics. Any nation without socialism is a good nation in our eyes.

No harm will come to any Armenians once Armenia is a part of our nation, and no harm will come to any Chechen. Chechens will have the option of returning to Chechnya, moving to areas of Turkey with Chechens in them, or returning to your own nation.

IC:

You talk of helping the Armenians, yet you bombed their cities with Napalm and shelled the innocent civilians with artillery. Kiwiland will support your integration of Armenia into the Balkan Union if it is according to the free will of the Armenians, but never if it is done through force.

SIC:

The Second Expeditionary Force was preparing for an invasion of Cripteria to help Chechen refugees flooding into Kazhkanistan. They had no intention of stopping there now, though. A swarm of helicopters crossed the borders like locusts, in a carefully orchestrated formation: Chinooks in the center, Black Hawks flanking, and Apaches in every direction flying escort.

General Jun Sanada, Commander of the First Imperial Guard Division, hoped that the Cripterians know better than to try interfere with their mission.

Milosevic took note of what Bolton had said, typing on his desktop. "I can see what I can do with the offers from the Soviet Union, as we are extremely close. Georgia is acting as a buffer zone between us, and I fear if any of these anti-Communist details come out my nation will be in jeopardy from the Soviet Union. We will use them as a way of keeping the Japanese out of our lands, is that alright?"

SIC: To RSFSR

Do not permit any Japanese aircraft through your airspace.

SSIC to the Balkan Union:

If you want us to launch, now would be an ideal time to get rid of their defenses so you may move in and dig in before the Kiwiland Forces arrive. It also looks as though Kiwiland is going to invade Cripteria instead of flying through my airsace.

Upon finding his telegram unanswered, the President feared the worst. He then tried again....

OOC: I can't make any posts towards Armenia as I believe Franberry is gone for the night.

THE GREATER EMPIRE OF NORTH AMERICA
The Greater Empire looks down on Kiwiland attempts to further destabilize the Caucasus region, and Emperor Stephanus has decreed that if any foreign nation attacks the Balkan Union troops, the Imperial armed forces will intervene on the side of the Balkan people. The Kiwiland military will not interfere in Balkan affairs or risk economic sanctions as well as military action.

Embassy
"As long as you are firmly on the capitalist side of things, I have no problems with milking the Communists for all they can. I have my doubts they are all that friendly with the Kiwis, but another possible route for them is through Cripteria. The Emperor has authorized moving the 3rd Fleet to the mediterranean to provide support for your men." Bolton said, looking calmly at Milosevic.

"How can they move through Cripteria...they don't even border them. But we must thank you, is there anything you need from my nation? One thing we can give you is free access through the Straits into the Black Sea, which doesn't seem like much-but the costs do add up."

OOC: Kiwi, you don't border Cripteria. How can you move through them if you don't border? E_E

SSIC to the Balkan Union:

General Nikanor, commander of the Air Force, has issued an order to get the Tu-22's in the air. They are heading at low altitude to the Black Sea and will move into the firing zone. They still will not fire until you send the order, but they will be on site for immediate launch.

SIC:

General Uesugi cannot help but sweat. Damn this heat, he muttered under his breath, even though temperature had nothing to do with it. He looked up to see the last of his battalion commanders arriving.

"Soldiers, I know you are all anxious to go home now that we have gathered up every willing Chechen we have found. And I must say I am proud of you all, this has been a campaign worthy of its own medals.

"But alas we cannot go yet. You've probably all heard rumours. The truth is that the Turks have invaded Armenia, and even as we speak thousands are dying from their vicious attacks.

"HM Government has directed us to prevent more deaths from happening. We will shortly be moving south, into Armenia, where we will soon be joined by General Sanada and her troops.

"Please remember your history lessons. A century ago the Turkish government unleashed untold suffering upon the Armenians under their control, and to this date the descendants of those responsible still refuse to acknowledge that they have committed Crimes Against Humanity.

"History never repeats itself - but only because those who learn from it changes it. We will not allow them to carry out another genocide.

"However please note this: the United Empire is NOT AT WAR with the Balkan Union. We will try to alleviate the suffering of the Armenians to the best of our ability and remove them from harm's way, but we must avoid directly confronting the Turks. Under no circumstances is any attacks to be made upon the Balkan Union's sovereign territory."

He paused, and looked around at the young faces collected in the tent.

"I am sorry that you have to go through this. Let's move out."

At his command, the Kiwiland Expeditionary Force - now renamed First Armenian Task Force - began making their way south.

"How can they move through Cripteria...they don't even border them. But we must thank you, is there anything you need from my nation? One thing we can give you is free access through the Straits into the Black Sea, which doesn't seem like much-but the costs do add up."

IC

His Imperial Majesty's government is utterly disgusted by the reckless maneuvers of the Western expansionists, demonstrating their barbaric tendencies. The Indians are being punished; the predecessors in Britain and Germany are currently their campaigns in France; and now the Turks are pursuing the Armenians. The Han Empire does not like pursuing barbarian tribes into their huts, but it seems that the kings of the West are so corrupted to ignore all signs of civilization for gilded pleasures fit for the homes of dogs.

It is therefore the resolve of the Imperial Government to pursue a policy of intervention in the homes of the Barbarian lands - to bring the wealth of civilization back to them and educate them in the manners of governing the state as according to the Way of government and society. We support the actions of the Kiwiland forces - as what began as tenacious operations to liberate peoples from the region has now erupted into the defense of civilization among the hordes of Western expansionists against the civil states. The Han Empire will consider sending an expedition to support and condone their operation. We furthermore urge the Balkan Union to practice restraint upon their integral state of Turkey, by ending this conflict before it has any chance to develop.

The Han Empire does not condone the ideology war between this "communism" and "capitalism" because the root of this war is neither ideology, but the selfish intentions of the uncivilized hordes in the West seeking to plunder the wealth of civilization - and it is the right and duty of the civilized Orient to protect the peoples oppressed by the savages. Any wise civilization will do well to condemn and commence retribution against the barbarians.


SIC to Kiwiland Empire:

Having reviewed the situation and the necessity to discipline the Western barbarians, the Han Empire grants the Kiwiland Empire access to Han internal public infrastructure to support and reinforce their troops in the Caucasus, as long as they are able to maintain their passage through Cripertia. Additionally, the Han Empire is willing to offer - through reduced rates from our Agency of Imperial Contracts - generic supplies, as food, medical aid, and other non-unit specific equipment - to your forces operating abroad, to defer the cost of their deployment. Additionally, we will be willing to grant limited access to our Hanjin airline carriers to carry air freight of Kiwiland equipment directly to their troops wherever needed - as long as Kiwiland can guarantee that their intervention is supported by the local government where we are to deliver your products. As these are civilian carriers, they are not restricted by normal procedures rendered to military carriers.

If your government concedes to this generous grant, we will consider mobilizing a force to support your combat operations. Otherwise, we will condone any military action employed to end this uncivil attack.

SIC to home forces:

The following land forces are to be mobilized -

*** 1st ARM Division [Seoan]
*** 1st AAA Division [Namgyeong]
*** 2nd CAV Division [Oromokjei]

Their mobilization is expected within 72 hours - afterwards, they will await deployment orders, if rendered.

Statement to the Armenian Government

Kiwiland forces will enter Armenia shortly. However, please do not be alarmed; we wish but to prevent the current disaster from developing into an even greater tragedy. We will assist your efforts in self-defence in anyway we can, and as such requests co-operation between our forces.

Reply to The Great Han Empire

Thank you for your generousity and support; we could not have hoped to move our land units to the Caucas in time otherwise. Together, no doubt we will be able to contain the Balkan expansionists and prevent another genoice.

However, we have received reports that continued strategic attacks by the Balkan Union has virtually eliminated the Armenian government, whose president is missing in transit to visit the Turks. As such we cannot say that our operations are supported by the local government. Although we have sent a message to them, we doubt that any reply is forthcoming.

Nonetheless, we will attempt to hold off the Turkish attack and evacuate as many civilians as possible, with or without word from the Armenian government.

Tavush Marz, Georgia-Armenian Borders

The Imperial Guard brigades crossed the borders without much fanfare, and General Uesugi dispatched 2 Air Attack Companies - a total of 40 Apaches - to the provincial capital Ijevan. Much to their relief, apparently out of remoteness the city appeared more or less intact. These units would attempt to make contact with the government while the main force moved on.

"We aren't too late yet," An aide commented.

"Don't get too optimistic," Narimori cautioned his protegee, while sending out a toal of 8 Air Attack Companies to scout ahead of the main force. "We are now getting close to enemy forces. Until the reinforcements arrive, we are far too greatly outnumbered to engae them."

"So what are we going to do now?"

"These areas would be fine for now. We must head for the Capital, Yerevan. It is the biggest city and Armenia's centre, the damage there must be the worst."

The First Armenian Task Force began travelling along the Yerevan – Kazakh highway.

Ten F-4s crashed over Armenia and five were forced to turn back, the others shortly reaching Yerevan. They dropped their napalm and quickly moved west.

The tank forced moved deeper into Armenia, the Howitzers still firing at towns and cities in the west.
AS ARMENIA, NOT THE RUS

Casualties in Yerevan were massive. 25 enemy aircraft had succeded in dropping naplam into the crowded city, and early estimates put the death toll at 10,000. The constant bombardment of border cities and towns has yielded the deaths of 25,000 Armenian civilians, and 300 soldiers. Images of the atrocities were being broadcasted by the Armenian media throught the world.

The Balkan armies drove deeper into Armenia, although they were about to run into heavy resistance. As soon as they aproached the nearest urban settlements to Turkey, they would find them occupied by Army, Reservists, and a large number of militias. In the face of such a heavy attack, the goverment had called on all able-bodied males between 16 and 55 to defend Armenia. The main force however, made up of some 50 tanks and 120 armoured vehicles, a little less than half of Armenias total armoured strength, held back, camouflaged, waiting for the proper moment to strike. The biggest trump card however, was the 8 Scud launchers and their 24 missiles. Loaded with chemical weaponry, they were targeted a Istanbul (OOC: are we calling it Constantinople?), and were hidden away in caves and bunkers, ready to strike if the nations of the world would not hear Armenia's plight.

Following the unjustified bombings of Yeveren and countless other towns and cities, the Armenian goverment has asked for international aid and mediation in this uni-latteral agression.

TO: The Great Han Empire

I find it ironic that you can call us imperialistic westerners while we are Europe's little brother, ignored frequently. Yet when an action of us invading another nation to show that we are no longer this little brother is showed, the entire world cries and demands it to end? Years my nation has been assaulted by Armenians, rioting and killing Turks throughout Anatolia and Thrace. We try and stop it, and they continue killing us more? Ending Armenian rioting saves Turkish lives, even if it means ending Armenian lives in the middle of it.

If Mongolians started murdering Koreans, Chinese, or Filipinos, what would you do? Would you let it go on, or would you intervene in Mongolia? I found Armenian murders of Turks an act of war myself, and could not let it go on any further.

What if Japanese men started slaughtering your own men, what would you do? We tried kindly asking Armenia to stop numerous times, yet they ignored us and proclaimed Hammurabi's Code. Since my state of Turkey murdered Armenians, they had the right to do so themselves. Koreans and Japanese have never had good relations, the same can be said about Armenians and Turks. It is time for me to end Armenian murders of Turks, and while I am not a Turk myself I consider them brothers. Not Ottoman Turks though, men who slaughtered my ancestors.

However, the actions of Turkey were by themselves. I can understand why they would do it, however. After the fighting is over, I will place restraints on Turkey. I hope you can understand that. And I hope you can understand that if any attacks come onto me, the Greater American Empire will intervene.

RSS Admiral Suyoz Moskva-Class Missile Cruiser, Black Sea

The Cruiser was moving in towards the position of the other two Crusiers and prepared for launch when the order was given.

Black Sea

The Missile Cruiser had entered the targeting solutions into the cruise missiles. A few minutes later, the cruiser readied 1/4 of its 26 missiles to be launched at the targets.

OOC: Candistan, you are aware that I never gave you the word to attack Armenia directly rite?

OOC: Candistan, you are aware that I never gave you the word to attack Armenia directly rite?

OOC: oh...well consider it a favor on my behalf :) They were all gov't and military targets, not civilian. So I can assure you that civilian deaths would be minimal.

OOC: oh...well consider it a favor on my behalf :)

OOC: I consider it as a precursor for the worse. Can you edit out your attacks plzplz and wait for me to say delta eagle bravo?

OOC: I consider it as a precursor for the worse. Can you edit out your attacks plzplz and wait for me to say delta eagle bravo?

Aww...fine.

As Armenia, not the RUS
The continued Balkan bombardments, joined by the cruise missiles from the RSFSR, did more damage to civillians than military targets. Although communications were severed around Ijevan and Dilijan momentarily, and the roads remained in utter caos, a further 12,000 civillians had perished, along with 500 soldiers, and 890 militia.

The Balkanites had not stopped, and as such, it was time for Armenia to deliver their more powerful blow, and then negotiate a quick way out of the war.

As such, the SCUD missile launchers, 8 in total, came to life. Each launcher had been given 3 missiles, and each warhead had been filled with VX gas canisters, adquired from old Soviet stocks. Their target was Constantinople. The missiles were quickly fired, and the launchers purposely destroyed. One missile veered off and crashed into the Black Sea, but the other 25 held true.

When the missiles where more than halfway there, the Armenian goverment put out a press statment.

"Armenia hereby accepts the Balkanite proposal for peace, and we surrender our country and our military under its terms. We hereby condisder ourselfs a semi-autonomous state of the Balkan Union."

As Armenia, not the RUS

Thank you for your aid, if at all possible, we would like your units to head towards Yeveren, as we belive the Balkanites are heading there first. Any aerial support you have is also apreciated, as we only posses one MiG-25, and cannot afford to lose it.

SIC:

The bulk of our forces in Armenia are made up of helicopters, and we will be able to deal with Turkish armoured units effectively. However, our air force units will still take some time to arrive.

IC: Having just sent the reply to Armenia's government, Commander of Kiwiland Forces, General Narimori Uesugi, was shocked to be informed that Armenia no longer exists. "What the hell?"

"Their cowardly government has betrayed the Armenian people, sir," an aide replied. "I guess we will pull out?"

"No," Narimori told him sternly. "We stay on course and await further developments."

"Incoming missiles from Armenia over Anatolia!" A man in Idgir screamed. "Contact any SAM battery, tell them to destroy them!"

It was too late to destroy the bulk of the missiles, but out of the original 24 only 15 remained. Five crashed into the Dardanelles killing 20,000 sailors, ten pounded both the Asian side of Constantinople and the European side. In a strange twist of fate, five Scuds crashed into a mainly ethnically Armenian area of around 30,000. three crashed into the Jewish sector, 15,000 died and two hit the area surrounding it, killing 75,000.

SIC:

"Armenia surrendered, but they killed around 130,000 men. They agreed to our terms, march troops into whatever remains in Yerevan.

IC TO THE WORLD:

Armenia has surrendered to the Balkan Union of Southeastern Europe to terms that are to be disclosed for the time being. The Balkan Union of Southeastern Europe hereby annexes Armenia.

As Armenia, not the RUS

The Armenian goverment had surrenderd, but the military was not in full agreement. Most of the air force, save the MiG-25 which was down to mechanical problems, and the transport planes, which were damaged, flew away into Gerogia. The military on the border with Georgia and in the center of the country prooced to retreat towards the Kiwian forces, but the forces close to the Balkanites, the majority, as there were still pockets of resitance, surrendered en masse. Effective Armenian resistance had stopped, as the armies were either waving white flags or retreating.

The Greater American Empire hereby recognizes the annexation of Armenia into the Balkan Union. We demand that Kiwiland troops withdraw themselves from the Balkan Union territory, or military action WILL be taken.

Greater Empire of North America

AE Naval Base, Albania, Balkan Union
With the order sent from the AEN command, the Third Fleet was prepared to enter the Black Sea in support of Balkan Union vessels. Approximately 100 ships, flagged by the carrier AENS New York, departed from their base in the Balkan Union territory early in the morning, with all the crews preparing for imminent combat. The danger was not so much Kiwiland ships, as they could not possibly get their fleet to the Black Sea without running afoul of several other AEN bases, but more land-based aircraft. Although with two hundred twenty-five carrier aircraft available from this fleet, it was even then unlikely that the fleet would lose air superiority.

The mission was to use tactical airstrikes to remove Kiwiland forces from the Balkan Union, as well as destroy rebellious Armenian army units - if they did not surrender within 24 hours of the CVBG arriving at it's destination in the Black Sea. The deal to allow American ships through the Dardanelles for free was made in private, Balkan Union people wanting American help in their struggles against the Communist hordes of the East.

"They can move through Cripteria if the Koreans give them access through their airspace first, Mr. Milosevic. And all we need is that your nation continue fighting the good fight against the Communists." Bolton said, looking at his watch briefly.

===IMPERIAL DECLARATION===

It is the firm and resolute determination of His Imperial Majesty to defend the bastion of civilization in the areas where barbarians wreck their damage upon the world. The Turks present this problem, and therefore, the Kiwiland response is justified in defending Armenian sovereignty against their expansionist desires. We adamantly remind the United States (?) that to declare war upon them in effect indicates your country's support of barbarians and their expansionist ploys. If your country does declare war against them for their defense of civilization - we will defend their sovereignty against your motions. We encourage your government - instead of making senseless threats against civilized countries - making efforts to promote the virtuous management of society. The invasion of Armenia is unjustified by any accounts, and until the Turks cease their military operations in the sovereign land of Armenia, we will continue to oppose their occupation. You should do the same, unless you wish to emulate their barbarism and expansionism.

Kiwiland Reply to The American Threat

HM Government of Kiwiland wishes to make it clear to the American Empire that military actions against our soldiers will result in war between our nations. We will further inform them that Kiwiland forces in Armenia have not yet attacked or engaged anyone in combat, be it Armenian, Balkan or American.

In fact not only did we receive invitations from the Armenian government, our lightly armed troops' prime objective is to rescue civilians. As we have stated earlier, we do not seek to interfere with the Armenian people's sovereign right to self-determination; on the other hand, we will render all and any help we can in defending them from the evils of expansionism and military might.

If you Americans insist on using force, you will not find our soldiers shying away from combat.

Oto Kajiura
Kiwiland Foreign Ministry Spokesperson




SIC:

In view of the hostility from America, Imperial Headquarters have ordered a general mobilisation of all regular Imperial military units. If the current situation continues to deteriorate, a state of emergency will be declared after 48 hours.

The Second Armenian Task Force, led by General Jun Sanada, has arrived at the borders. Much of the Air Cavalry units under her command began to go about gathering up as many Armenian refugees and retreating forces as possible, and attempts are being made to locate the Armenian Air Force.

Meawhile, the old Kiwiland base of operations in Qazakh, originally built to facilitate the flying in of aid, took on a drastic change. It now houses elements the West Siberian Fighter Squadron and the 3rd East Siberian Fighter Squadron, both ready for action.

Concurrently, the following units have set out from Kiwiland, and is now passing through Great Han Empire:

- 6th Augmented Artillery Brigades, First Imperial Guard Division
- Third Kyoto Division
- Ninth Okinawa Division
- 5th Artillery Brigade, Eighth Kemerovo Division


Outskirts of Yerevan, First Armenian Task Force

Commander Uesugi eyed the former capital of Armenia with weary eyes. On his way here he had picked up hordes of Armenian forces in disarray. Following the stated directives issued by HM Government, he ended up being forced to send almost half of his main force to escort them, along with fleeing civlians, into Georgia, where he received words that General Sanada is making camp.

"I do agree we cannot leave them along," He muttered to no one in particular. "But we are running thin as it is already..."

With a sigh, he urged the troops on. 480 AH-64D Apaches escorted the 135 UH-60JA Black Hawks towards the city, carrying some 1,620 soldiers. Their first target is the Air Force base in the city, and once it is seized the Central Siberian Air Force will fly in. After that, he will direct his forces to carry our aid to the Armenian people and try rally Armenian soldiers until the Second Task Force joined in, or if new orders should come through.

SSIC to the BU:

Just reminding ou that our missiles are still online and waiting for the order.

TO: New Kiwiland

We ask you, why are you in our nation? We clearly are able to view your troops via satellite and planes flying over you. We request that your military leave the area of Yerevan and the Balkan State of Armenia. The Balkan Union yesterday received a chemical attack from the former nation of Armenia, causing the death of over 100,000 Balkan citizens.

Clearly, Armenia does not want you in your nation if they ceded their nation to the Balkan Union of Southeastern Europe. The terms of annexation were:

All fighting will cease
Armenia will be integrated as a state in the Balkan Union, with some autonomy
The Balkan Union of Southeastern Europe will rebuild all cities destroyed
The Balkan Union provides military defense to the Armenians incase of any attack from any nation
The Balkan Union will pay reparations to the Armenian government for the current war and for attrocities committed during World War I.
All prisoners of war will be released
Any citizen willing to leave the nation will be permitted to do so, but as a nation of the Balkan Union the standard of living will increase dramatically

We will ensure you that all Armenians will be safe and that these terms will be respected by us and Armenia. Armenia accepted integration by the Balkan Union, the Armenian-Balkan War has ended.

If you do not leave Armenia within a week, I will find it that your own nation is interfering in my own sovereignity. Please have your military leave the Balkan Union. Now.

IC:

Balkan Leopard 2A4s had reached the city of Yerevan, a once beautiful city now covered in a cloud of smoke.

Their objective now was to raise the Balkan flag over the former executive building in Armenia, a sign that Armenia had finally been annexed in Balkan eyes. Armenia had been destroyed in the war, as was part of eastern Turkey. In Turkey, around 150,000 people had been killed. This included the chemical attack by Armenia the few days before and other skirmishes between the two.

The Balkan Union's annexation was complete, it was time to rebuild Yerevan.

Official German Confederation Response to the Armenian Conflict.

The German Confederation is astounded at the barbarity of the Balkan Unions blantant attack on Armenia. it has not only thrown Armenia's Sovereignity out the window but most likely many of the core civil rights that apparent in all people. We demand that the Balkan Union pull out of Armenia within the next 48 hours.

To show that we mean business. We are place the Balkan Union under an immdediate embargo. No German Goods will head to the Balkan Union. Also we are freezing any and all Balkan Union and/or Balkan Union Business Assets in the German Confederation.

Christof Klein
Chancellor of the German Confederation.

SIC:

The Entire Luftwaffe has been placed on stand-by. They are ready to strike at a moments notice.

What are we to leave in Armenia, nothing? The Armenian government ceded Armenia to us. What are we do to do about that, leave a government that does not exist any more to anarchy?

Armenia, like I said, agreed to be integrated. As we speak, Balkan men in Yerevan are putting out any existing fires and rebuilding the city. Armenia was a third world nation before the Balkan Union welcomed Armenia as a brother. I'm quite sure that someone will say "brothers don't drop napalm on other brothers", but brothers do fight. Horrid analogy, I know.

The Armenian Genocide did occur in 1915, and do you think a single Armenian would allow a single Turk, Serb, or Bulgarian into their own nation to help them? Of course not. In order to rebuild Armenia and turn it into a power of the Balkan Union, we had to invade. Place sanctions on me, don't trade with me for a while. What will invading me to, shed more blood? Take over my nation , in an action of Imperial Greed? The Balkan Union is a Union, not an empire. Each state: Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Romania, and Turkey have a degree of autonomy each. We plan to use this same autonomy in Armenia, and turn Armenia into what was once a land hated by Turks and Azeris to be a land united with Turkey in an effort of brotherhood. And like I've mentioned, I am allowing Armenian citizens to leave the nation if they wish. They are being provided with food, shelter, healthcare-things the Armenian government failed to do. Since Armenian independence from the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union has neglected Armenia in all ways. In order not to anger the Soviets, we turned the other cheek. Something Armenia would've wanted us to do, unforgiving of Turkey's ignorant actions.

As of now, Armenians have seaports-something which neighbors the MEC, Azerbaijan, my former self, and Georgia denied. As of now, we are working on increasing the 30% unemployment rate.

We offer the nations of the world a choice. If, in one year, the Balkan State of Armenia has not changed for the better-we will drop it. If, in one year, the Balkan State of Armenia is suffering from anti-Balkan insurgency, we will drop it. If the world fails to give us a chance at Armenia and simply decided to crush the Balkan Union, what is that showing about you? The Great Han Empire and Kiwiland call me imperialist yet they are empires themselves in great irony. Now, one of my nation's trading partners, Germany has turned the other cheek as well and is now threatening us.

We as the world, give us a chance at Armenia. Let us make Armenia a better place to live, a place where the average GDP will be nearly 12,000 a year-a 120% increase of what it is now. Let us change a nation that relies on foreign aid into a state in the union that can rely on it's self.

I, Dragiša Crvenkovski, guarantee that Armenia will become a better place to live. I guarantee that order will be restored, and that Robert Kocharian (sp) will become governor of Armenia. He currently is near Ankara in the state of Turkey, safe.

Ultimatum to the New Kiwiland Forces in Armenia
Your forces have twenty-four hours to leave Armenia or be forcibly expelled by American armed forces. We will not tolerate the armed invasion of an ally's sovereign territory. If Kiwiland forces do not leave within six hours, all Kiwiland assets in the American Empire will be frozen and all trade will halt. The Armenian government is no longer in existance, and your troops have invaded Balkan Union territory. Withdraw immediately or face destruction.


Official American Message to the German Confederation
Calling the Balkan people imperialists is laughably hypocritical when it comes from the Germans, which is invading France under the context of "peacekeeping." We demand that the German people back down from their threats against the Balkan people or punitive sanctions will be made against the German Confederation.

Black Sea
The 3rd Fleet was moving closer to it's position, which would allow it to strike at the Kiwiland troops with impunity. It was unlikely Kiwiland had sufficient naval attack resources to make a dent in the fleet, but all precautions were taken to ensure the safety of the carriers. F-18 Super Hornet aircraft were far superior to most anything the Kiwilanders could wield in their defense, and further reinforcement aircraft were being moved to Turkish airbases eventually. Twenty-three hours until the ultimatum expired, and the carrier aircraft would launch the first sorties against Kiwiland troops in Armenia..

Black Sea

The three Missile Cruisers still sat in wait for their order. Scattered reports were coming in of strange attacks in Russia. The cruisers help their positions though, intent on completing their mission.
