Tunisian bussiness were in high drive, as the Prussia and and Celtia governments colapsed. It was quite a shock, two countries simply dissolving. Most countries would see the anarchy as a chance for military glory or annexation.

Tunisia saw dollar bills.

The government, along with Tunisian private corporations, began snatching up as much capital as possible. Manufacturing plants, research companies, nearly everything of value. The factory parts would be sent to Tunisia, along with any reserach, while the land and stripped factory itself would be sold off. Anything that wasn't nailed down was sold off, from the land to the tin shavings.

The employees were given a free ride to Tunisia, where homes were being built, and they were promised the continuation of thier jobs. CEO's and the like of the companies bought were brought over as well, entire companies being transplanted.

Tunisia now cliamed the naval equipment bought by the Prussian's, and paid for, were Tunisian property now, and military officials were finding the Celtia biplanes quite interesting.

Tunisia now had swallowed the industry and manufacturing workforce of two countires. Could any nation deny her economic power now?

ooc: yes, yes they could. Illar, played by HT, in his role of moderator and general all 'round boss man could well do that. i'm dubious as to how legitimate this is... on the other hand, if you get away with it... so very much awesome, man!

OOC: I hope he allows it. I mean, Tunisia should be having the most economic growth of any nation right now. The Prussian ships he has to allow, since they were being built in my ports anyway. But man, I hope he allows this...sets the mood for what Tunisia is.

OOC: Can you point me to the relevent threads/posts for the collapse of Prussia and Celtia?

OOC: They just quit? ....somthing about people screwing with the tech..and one guy intended to take over your nation and..for some reason dropped out because the other guy did...all he said was "Well, there goes my plan to take Illar" or somthing along those lines..

OOC: Ok, another ruling is required. This one's simple. You don't get the countries. Reason being? They are now open to new claimants. And I won't burden new claimants with all sorts of baggage from previous RPers.

I don't want the countries. I just want thier companies and employees. Thier factories and such. You can keep the country!

Right. And are those factories and employees inside or outside the countries at the moment?

So I can't buy anything? Not even a few companies? We can't just pretend that those countries didn't exist! What about the treaties and various things.

I can make a comprimise: we don't take everything, but a large amount of the workforce comes to Tunisia. We take everything outside, and a few bussiness(manufacturing).

Is this ok?

We can pretend those countries never existed - and we will. You can keep whatever proceeds you got from them comissioning ships in your shipyards, and the ships, but not anything from inside the country itself that wasn't previously yours. If they were major, fifteen-province countries, we'd have to come up with some backstory, and maybe then we'd RP it. But not with these guys.

ah damn!
