"Ladies and gentlemen, today the world is as fragile as ever," stated PM Sir Alistair Davidson before the combined Houses of Parliament. "With the collapse of the Global Alliance of Sovereign Nations, as well as boiling tensions between the New Alliance Treaty Organization and the Sovereign League, this planet can not afford one more destabilizing agent. But there are those who do not share Londinian hopes for global stability and peace. There are those who wish to divide and conquer. There are those who wish to see the obliteration of the world order. I am referring to, of course, the Hegemony."

Pressing a small green button on his podium, a holographic projection appeared in the room, displaying a map of Hegemony nations throughout the globe.

"These nations are an insidious enemy. Whilst presenting the international community with a desire for peace, they are just as warlike, just as bloodthirsty as a horde of zombies - and just as intelligent too. The Hegemony, a pompous supranational organization under the yoke of Lord Sumguy, has consistently deployed troops throughout the world, threatening to use them against the assets of both British Londinium and the assets of other nations. It for those reasons that I implore this Parliament to pass the legislation before you."

BL authorizes "use of force" against the Hegemony

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/42581000/jpg/_42581973_navy_pa_203b.jpg

The Londinian parliament authorized "the use of force" and "the deployment of military troops" against the Hegemony, an international organization headed by the nation of Lord Sumguy.

In a speech before the House of Commons, PM Sir Alistair Davidson stated, "These nations [belonging to the Hegemony] are an insidious enemy. Whilst presenting the international community with a desire for peace, they are just as warlike, just as bloodthirsty as a horde of zombies - and just as intelligent too."

There has been much domestic support for such an action, with an LBG poll indicating that 69.3% of the population is in favour of taking action against the Hegemony.

Andrew Stark, director of the Cicero Institute, a Londinian think-tank, remarked, "This action will revitalize British Londinium...the people need a victory, and these jingoistic belligerents are a perfect target."

This authorization of force, though, is not a full declaration of war, and the Londinian government has yet to begin any troop movement.

OOC: you do realize, of course, that alone you cannot defeat us? We have nearly 5 billion total population, you have 1.6 billion. I really dont wanna fight you, but it's your call.

sumguy I already explained this too you the ENTIRE force that the Hegemony can deploy militarily is only 200 something Million...you dont have anywhere close to a billion men to fight with

OOC: Sumguy, I think he might have a bigger military then all of us combined, though. :(

ooc: Londinium is probably not alone. Possibly has ties to the Corporate Alliance.

We have no reason to attack you or your assets. We are simply here to provide a common defense for the member nations, thats all.

We hope that you reconsider in your attempts against the Hegemony

OOC: Sumguy, I think he might have a bigger military then all of us combined, though. :(

I dunno if he does..but I know he's my ally..and ICily dislike several Hegemony members..

sumguy I already explained this too you the ENTIRE force that the Hegemony can deploy militarily is only 200 something Million...you dont have anywhere close to a billion men to fight with

OOC: and again, i was talking about population, not armies!

OOC: and again, i was talking about population, not armies!

okay but you made it sound like you were threatening him with numbers..populations mean absolutely nothing...basically all you said by saying we have 5 billion people is "we have 5 billion people for you to kill/enslave/conquer"

OOC:Gatway, you've got no real reason to dislike me at least, in fact I've gicen BL some aid before, so maybe he won't attack me at least, I am going to stay neutral in hope's of avoiding conflict....

okay but you made it sound like you were threatening him with numbers..populations mean absolutely nothing...basically all you said by saying we have 5 billion people is "we have 5 billion people for you to kill/enslave/conquer"

5% of 5 billion is far more than 5% of 1.6 billion...that was my point.

IC: Official Statement from TSRT Government
"The Totalitarian State fully supports the Government of British Londinium in its righteous cause against the imperialist tendancies of the Hegemony. This pack of Sovereign Violating Governments should not be allowed to continue their continued hostility towards the proper world governments."
End Message

OOC: I have six billion people... and my military is over 110 million strong(total). My nations economy is also geared towards the specific goal of producing munitions for war, my training methods are cheap and fast, and my nation has enough weapons and ammunition stockpiled to fight a major conflict for centuries. Id like to see your Hegemony even try to defeat me.

ooc: I explained yesterday..you cant use total population of the Hegemony you have to take 5% of every Hegemony members population then add all those numbers up which is around 279 million or so if I remember correctly...I already did all that math for you yesterday..dont tell me I have to do it again...

OOC: British Londinium, I have given you aid, and I am not getting involved in this at all, so even if I am a member, I am not participating, so you shouldn't regard me as an enemy, for I am officialy neutral, and cutting my role back in the Hegemony...

OOC: Calizorinstan your in Hegemony? If so what are your intentions regarding this as you are also in UFAN?

ooc: 279,300,000 thats the total number of military power in the entire hegemony.

ooc: I explained yesterday..you cant use total population of the Hegemony you have to take 5% of every Hegemony members population then add all those numbers up which is around 279 million or so if I remember correctly...I already did all that math for you yesterday..dont tell me I have to do it again...

OOC: it comes out to the same number....

5% of 100 ten times is the same as 5% of 1000...

well, darn, more huge nations out to destroy us...:(

OOC: I am hoping that the UFAN will back the Hegmony, for I intend to fight alongside the other member's, as soon as I get back on my feet military wise, and rebuild my nation from the civil war, that's my intention Vetaka, I hope none of what I've said is contrary to the UFAN law or anything...

OOC: it comes out to the same number....

5% of 100 ten times is the same as 5% of 1000...

well, darn, more huge nations out to destroy us...:(

no its not the same number because your method uses total population numbers and then my method (the correct one) uses the % of populations each member can have in their military..added together...its quite different..and very simply concept to under stand why you continue to make it difficult is beyond me..and personally I dont see how the alliance has half as much as it does since I only see you..Greal..Greston..NC..and..Calz ever actively rping anything

OOC: Isn't 5% a little... much? I know it's the maximum accepted percentage, but that will thrash your economy hardcore if you keep it like that all the time.

no its not the same number because your method uses total population numbers and then my method (the correct one) uses the % of populations each member can have in their military..added together...its quite different..and very simply concept to under stand why you continue to make it difficult is beyond me

OOC: your method concluded somewhere around 250 million..5% of 5 billion is 250 million.

OOC: I'm interested in getting involved, probably on British Londinium's side. I don't want to clutter this thread with OOC much (perhaps you should create a OOC thread, if this is a big operation) so I'll edit my post when it's finished into this unless this thread progresses fast.

OOC: Isn't 5% a little... much? I know it's the maximum accepted percentage, but that will thrash your economy hardcore if you keep it like that all the time.

yes it would but..the benefit of a doubt

Official Imperial Message

The Imperial Kingdom offers its pledge of support for the forces of British Londinium and wishes to hold a meeting to discuss strategy for fighting the hegemony..

Yustev Heinkle
Defense Minister

Imperial Decree

Under order of his lordship Emperor Nadov III any and all trade with Hegemony nations is hereby ended. All domestic traffic to Hegemony states is ceased. Any Hegemony aircraft or ship entering Imperial Kingdom territory is subject to boarding and seizure of goods or personnel under the State Security Law. Citizens of all Hegemony states that are currently within the Imperial Kingdom are subject to detainment and questioning before deportment. These terms are effective Immediately and shall not be revoked until his Lordship feels it is time to do so. Any citizen or corporation found to violate any code under the state security law will be punished accordingly.

Emperor Nadov III

OOC: Of course, 5% is only in the case of emergencies, as a general rule... the more men you have in the military, the worse off your economy is. This varies depending on the type of nation you run and how you RP it. For example, I RP as one of the most militant and brutal dictatorships on NS, with a economy geared specifically for wartime production. This allows me to RP a strong economy and a large army.

However, this comes with the trade-off of the fact that the civilian population has a poor quality life, and only truly keeps its government in power out of fear of what the Military and Intellegince-Commissarat will do if they revolt. There is also the problem that I must actually get into a major conflict every so often and constantly seize new resources, lest my economy collapses.

OOC: Honako, Vetaka, Check TGs please. Thanks.

OOC: Whether UFAN will get involved is something for the Councils to decide. However my nation stance is a neutral one as we respect British Londinium deeply as for the rest of UFAN they will most likely remain neutral regarding Offensive Combat by Hegemony however should the Calizorinstan Homeland be directly attacked UFAN will invoke its Prime Directive and move to Defend the Calizorinstan Homeland from Attack however UFAN would probably not actively get involved within the War.

Subject: Calizorinstan Involvement within the growing Hegemony Crisis

"A Nation with some of the Bravest People to grace the NS World" those where the words spoken by Scarlet Rogers during the Freekish Invasion of British Londinium President of the Free Dominion of Vetaka as such Vetaka holds a deep sense of Respect for the nation and People of British Londinium. Whilst Vetaka wishes to remain neutral within this situation we must make our position clear on the subject of Calizorinstan Membership of Hegemony.

Due to commitments of the United Federation of Allied Nations Vetaka must make it clear that should the Calizorinstan Homeland be directly threatend by Offensive Combat Vetaka via UFAN must invoke the UFAN Prime Directive and mobilize Military Force to defend the Calizorinstan Homeland.

However Vetaka and we suspect the United Federation of Allied Nations as a whole will not wish to become involved in the crisis our only concern is Calizorinstan Homeland Safety. Vetaka hopes for a peaceful outcome to this crisis and we offer to act as mediators to ensure the situation can be solved via Diplomatic Means.

OOC:Ha, yeah that would be awesome Vetaka, maybe have Perry come over and vist or something, plus, they have similar job's, hmm....!

The Free Empire supports British Londinium in the destruction of an alliance as vile as the Hegemony. They will not be able to fight a defensive war in Greal, were Griffincrest moves to take an oil rich island, and this new coalition of nations will insure the Hegemony falls.

[OOC: When does this happen in relation to NATO's occupation of British Londinium?

Mobilizing 5% of your population would cause your economy to go through a major recession. Normally, you'd want to avoid massive mobilizations like that unless your homeland was under threat of annexation [which would bring you to the point where your infrastructure is about to collapse and so you may have more than 5% arrayed in local and nation-wide militias]. During the War of Golden Succession the maximum size of the Fuermak [armed forces] was ~60 million. That's .7% of my population. Countries like Israel, who mobilize large portions of their population during times of war, go through economic freezes and recessions. On NationStates nations are so large one should be able to avoid such scale of mobilizations [there is no way you will need that many men in any theater of war unless your nation was said theater of war].]

IC:
ATTN:All Hegemony member's, British Londinium and Company,

The San Diego Peace Talk's, will be held in our conference center, right next to San Diego/Slovick International Airport, and shuttle's will be provided, talk's will be from 12-6:00, with dinner at Fat City, a restraunt well known for it's steak's.

Blockade of Hegemony nations "under consideration"

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/42064000/jpg/_42064232_isre.jpg

Ministry of Defence officials have announced that an embargo of Hegemony nations such as Shredderstan and Lord Sumguy is "under consideration" as a policy action.

"At this time, we have not deemed it prudent to engage in full fledged military invasions of Hegemony nations. However, a blockade is definitely under consideration by the Ministry," declared a MoD spokesman in a press conference this morning.

At the same time, People's Navy vessels have been streaming out of Londinian naval bases, near constantly patrolling the Londinian coasts.

The Londinian government has refused to comment any further.

We would prefer it if the Londinian people refrained from their warmongering ways (which have already gotten them into trouble) and from making empty threats.
You have no reason to start this war, and as far as we know, these nations have done nothing to deserve your wrath.
So, please, stand down and let the world be, we dont need world police.
On a side (though more official) note, I've been contacted by some GUSN nations who share close ties with the Hegemony nations, and are concerned over having to fight an ally (you), I'd like to remind you that they have the power to summon a meeting and vote to expel you from the alliance, as a friend, I wouldnt like to see that happen, but it's not my choice, it's the people's.

To The World Soviet Party:

I understand your concerns regarding the point of this conflict. Let me assure you, however, that there is legitimate cause for an attack. Not only has the Hegemony threatened Londinian forces in Hataria Londii, its leader, Lord Sumguy, has oppressed member nations by forcing them to utilize their troops whenever they wish them to. However, we aren't being unreasonable, and we intend to participate in peace talks.

The Rt. Hon. Sir Alistair Davidson, MP
Prime Minister of British Londinium

Foreign Minister Tiloka Kit appears onscreen in an open video message broadcast on an open channel to the rest of the world. Behind him can be seen two of Arda's Five Flags: bearing the crests of Dunland and Far Harad, respectively. He is dressed casually and speaks loudly but evenly.

"I cannot help but notice that mister Davidson professes that the 'planet can not afford one more destabilizing agent,' while in the process of acting--both now and in the past--as a 'destabilizing agent.'"

Kit pauses to take a drink from a styrofoam cup. He waits until he puts it back down to continue. "Arda will always take this garbage for face value. While we harbor no sympathies with this 'Hegemony,' we cannot fathom the blatantly hypocritical statements uttered by the Londinian Prime Minister.

"In times like this, with tensions being what they are, it is better to alleviate them than to add to them. British Londinium professes to be a champion of peace while launching an assault on another nation under the guise that they're 'insidious enemies?' This is nothing more than a flimsy and childish pretext to sate their lust for blood.

The world will not be fooled by the words and actions of Prime Minister Davidson. Arda condemns this aggressive action entirely, and finds the Londinian complaints entirely without merit."

A video was sent to Lord Sumguy, of the scene in Star Wars Episode III:ROTS, of Anakin vs Obi-Wan, with the face of Lord Sumguy on Anakin, and the face of president Arnold on Obi-Wan with the message "You were our ally, but pressure from bigger nation's, and we don't wish to fight a war with BL, he's an old time friend of our's, plus we were faced with the choice of the glorious New Prussian Empire, or the crumbling Hegemoney, and you knew which we chose...

OOC: no offence taken, but dont expect Lord Sumguy to be happy...

SIC: a video was sent in response, of Lord Sumguy speaking:

"I thought you were many things, Jack, but never a coward and traitor. Have you forgotten the Hatarian ball? Have you forgotten How we helped fight your rebellion, and how my troops killed the leaders of said rebellion as they attacked the Hegemony ball? Have you forgotten your honor? In our darkest hour, instead of standing with us, you flee, and leave this" He pointed, and the camera sviveled to veiw outside the window, at the gleaming skyscrapers of Sumgaia, "to utter destruction. You have my pity. I will only die if the Hegemony falls, whereas you will have to live with yourself." With that, the video ended.

As the situation appears to escalate, the Ardan Foreign Ministry grows more and more agitated. Kit releases a second video message in short order.

"It doesn't take a genius to realize that 'destabilizing agent' is obviously a buzzword for 'nations we don't like.' Ideological, economic, or cultural differences in and of themselves should not obligate the nations in question to run onto the international scene swinging their cod at all and sundry.

He clasps his hands behind his back and shifts his weight. "One would think that the Londinians would be averse to the horrors of war, in light of recent events, and any rational man in Prime Minister Davidson's position would realize this and act accordingly."

Tiloka Kit,
Foreign Minister of Arda

See? That's our main difference, I, unlike you, am not a warmonger, nor I like to see my people die, nor sacrifice them for nothing (or even an ideal).
You, on the other side, seem to thrive on war, and it's not my style to benefit my enemies. Besides, your people are so brainwashed that it wouldnt matter, they'll do anything you tell them, am I wrong?

What is your fate? My duty is my fate.

Our people are not brainwashed, they simply know their duty to God and Country.

Official Communiqué

Open Declaration:

The motives of this conflict are being called into question. Let me assert that those who question our rationale fail to take into account the whole picture. The Hegemony has threatened Londinian colonies and dependent nations. The Hegemony's leader, Lord Sumguy, has created a system in which the majority of control is given to it, oppressing its members. The Hegemony, through attempting to field massive armies well beyond its means, threatens the nations of the world, and jeopardizes the stability of member nations. Notice how war has yet to be declared. We are more than willing to compromise.

Response to the PeoplesFreedom declaration:

The Hegemon Lord Sumguy wishes to make three points in response:

1. we had elections, and the system was created by Hegemony members, not just me.

2. 1 million men is hardly a massive army considering our size.

3. The Hegemony forces threatened to intervene in order to stop a genocide, and when it was shown that genocide was not occuring, backed down.

OOC: You've tried to field 200 million man armies, or, at least, threatened to field those armies.

Nuclear device detonated in Earth orbit

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/42347000/jpg/_42347210_tridentap203f.jpg

A Londinian ICBM was detonated 482 kilometres above the capital of Lord Sumguy, creating an electromagnetic pulse with a diametre of 2,400 over the nation.

The blast, though occuring in international space, is believed to have plunged Lord Sumguy into a blackout, with most electric appliances and goods offline and rendered useless.

British Londinium has refused to confirm or deny reports that the explosion was deliberate.

Retired General George Xu, an LBG military analyst, remarked that "increased troop movements coupled with all missile silos being placed on alert...suggest that the ICBM detonation was planned."

"All I care to say is that Lord Sumguy and his Hegemony ought to come to the negotiating table," Deputy PM Iunctus Wellington. "They're hardly in a position to wage war at this point."

Nuevo Italia Preparing for War
http://www.army.mod.uk/img/infantry/light_infantry_desert_patrol__jordan.jpg
Young Nuevan men like these, recently trained in the Southwest desert, could soon be on their way to war

___
Page 2a

Nuevo Italia has long been a very close friend of British Londinium. Though it wasn't there to defend it during NATO's invasion, and wasn't able to scorn the former GASN into aiding one of its own members, relations remain strong.

The DENI has also noticed "[the hegemony is] an international leech, that must be crushed before it can crush us", as President Sicilo announced earlier today, along with the fact the Democratic Empire is preparing for war. Polls show that support on this action is reasonably high, around 76%, a high number for an already popular President. President Sicilo plans to send an ambassador to attend peace talks, but it does not think they will make much difference.

It has requested that nations in the Mediterranican Union help in the mighty coalition against the Hegemony, which includes: Gataway, British Londinium, Aliquantus, The People's Freedom, New Vantania, and Calizorinstan & Vetaka (to an extent). Will this be a bloody war, or a great victory? Only time will tell.

What is your fate? My duty is my fate.

As far as brainwashing goes, you can go ask to the nice folks at the "Capitalist for The World Soviet Party" political party, or the "Neo-Liberal Party".

The Wanderjarian Government speaks on behalf of the New Prussian Empire and its benefactors in the German Commonwealth, that we stick by our associates and friends in British Londinium. Any suspected aggression against these people will be considered an attack on the Prussian state itself.

The Prussian Imperial Army had begun to mobilize. Parades in the cities celebrated the mobilization, as mass columns of tanks, armored vehicles, and infantry marched past thousands of spectators, cheering their brave sons onward. All were dressed in their immaculate dress uniforms, medals and campaign ribbons adorning the many veterans within the ranks. Fighter aircraft flew in tight formations over head, as did helicopters and strategic bombers.


Should Hegemony make the fatal mistake of testing Prussian resolve for war, they would recieve no quarter.

Encrypted message to British government from the Griffincrest Corporation. Please Standby....

It has come to my attention that you have begun mobilizing against the group of pitiful backwater nations that have organized into a militia known as the Hegemony. This is good as it saves Griffincrest and the Corporate Alliance from entering into a war, which it had planned against Lord Sumguy. We still, however, wish for these nations to understand what it means to cross Griffincrest, and so, we are willing to supply your forces in any way needed, and equip your soldiers with CA weaponry, particularly the Mercury APC, M32 machine gun and the M26 assault rifle, as well as provide logistical services and possibly air support missions. If necessary, we will also send in mercenaries on your behalf. If anythink further is needed, do not hesitate to ask.

OOC:Another war? oh great, I been rping all day, I would like to stay out of this war. I am in no mood for war.

Nuclear Detontation over Lord Sumguy, OBSAT Nuclear Interception Deployed to Calizorinstan

Page 2 of New Theeb Independant

With the detonation of an ICBM Nuclear Device over the Capital of Lord Sumguy leading to further breakdown and destablization within the growing Eurasian-Hegemony Crisis the Defence Secretary Sam Fielding today confirmed the deployment of OBSAT Nuclear Interception Satellites as well as Nuclear Interception Systems to ensure Calizorinstan and Allied Forces Safety from Nuclear Strikes.

The Device detonated over Lord Sumguy is believed to be British Londinium in Orgin according to LBG News and confirmed by the Department of the Defence the device was detonated at 482 kilometres above the Capital within International Space causing an electromagnetic pulse with a diametre of 2,400 above the nation.

The Foreign Secretary Perry Cox went on to say "We Encourage all nations involved to attend the San Dieago Talks to attain a Peaceful Outcome to this situation". President Scarlet Rogers has yet to make a comment but is expected to do so within the Week. Vice President Katrinia Fielding said "Vetakan Involvement within this situation is strictly neutral we call for and do what is asked of us for peaceful outcome our only interest is the safety and security of fellow UFAN member Calizorinstan as a result I wish to make it clear to all parties involved Vetaka and the United Federaton of Allied Nations will respond with Military Force to any attack upon Calizorinstan Sovereignty".

OOC: Those of you bickering over 200 million man armies, keep in mind that about 5/6 or 2/3 of those armies is logistics, so that reduces you to less than 40 million men for combat.

EDIT: I didn't see the OOC thread, sorry.

OOC: Those of you bickering over 200 million man armies, keep in mind that about 5/6 or 2/3 of those armies is logistics, so that reduces you to less than 40 million men for combat.

OOC: Thats not the problem, the complaint is that your nations are pretty small, so there is no way they could economically field a force that size without imploding your economy....or drafting practically every man woman and child capable of wielding a rifle....


And use the OOC thread please, thats what its for.

Londinian fleets take up position around Lord Sumguy

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/41899000/jpg/_41899918_gloucester-203.jpg

Twenty People's Navy task groups took up positions just outside of Lord Sumguy's territorial waters.

The Ministry of Defence has informed the press that the armada consists of twenty carriers, one hundred and forty destroyers, one hundred frigates, sixty submarines, and forty minesweepers, as well as an unspecified amount of "floating warehouses" and supply vessels.

"As of now, this armada is neither taking offensive action nor engaging in a blockade," reported a MoD spokesman.

OFFICIAL STATEMENT BY THE GREATER HONAKON COMMISSION

Long has the nation of Honako regarded the Hegemony as an organization that cannot keep to it's own, one that interferes with ever major war that it notices - in some attempt to gain land, allies or just simply because they feel they can. However, we feel not all in this group of nations are responsible for our view, and we note that the leader Lord Sumguy seems to throw this "power" around recklessly, and seems to be the only real speaker from this disorganized group of nations.

When they were first formed we saw them as a good thing to the world - an alliance finally for the smaller nations of the world, of which we are one, a group of peaceful, petite nations that could unite and trade and prosper. There war like tendencies and general annoying nation has changed that view though.

We therefore support all actions taken by British Londinium against the Hegemony. We view them as a threat to the world and the sovereign rights of nations, but one that can easily be disbanded.

Good luck in your missions. Due to our standings with the UFAN, it is unlikely we will be able to assist you military wise, so neutrality will have to do.

We fully support British Londinium in this matter. The Hegemony cannot be allowed to threaten the sovereignity of another nation!

If such action were to occur again, then Barronia will have to act in the interests of all nations with colonies elsewhere.

The Department of the Military has recently deployed a fleet to join the British Londinian armada. The New Vantanian fleet is the same fleet that fought recently in the Highway Wars. The fleet consists mostly of fifty carriers, one hundred destroyers, ninety frigates, seventy submarines, and thirty minesweepers, and fifty airship carriers. The amount of logistic vessels have not been specified.

OOC: Sorry for copy and pasting, BL.

SIC:

People's Air Force Base Aqir
90 kilometres away from Lord Sumgese capital

Londinian military columns had marched triumphantly through the countryside of Lord Sumguy, their victory in place. The People's Corps of Engineers had already begun construction on PAF Aqir, and were slated to start building Ft Pembrey Sands within the week.

"Some war," laughed Field Marshal Max Wruck, who was overseeing construction.

"Too fucking short, if you ask me, sir," replied another officer.

"Short? Dear Allah, we've barely seen the start," Wruck responded. "After we build these bases, Lord Sumguy is officially fucked in the ass. Hell, thirty tanks and fifty thousand of our soldiers ought to be enough to take out their entire fucking army."

As the officers laughed, the crews kept building - cementing the downfall of Lord Sumguy between the titanium support columns and asphalt tarmacs.

SIC:

The New Vantanian fleet moved in to their new territorial waters, securing the new colony, killing anyone who resisted. The colony was quickly secured, and the people were sent to the newly created deprogramming centers. There, they would be turned into zombies to work in the massive factories that were once their cities. Meanwhile, everyone two and younger was sent back to New Vantania to be raised properly. Army forces pushed to the borders, with guns pointing towards Lord Sumguy. Meanwhile corporate armies kept the zombies in line.

Target: All Nations involved in this pathetic excuse for a crisis.

It is with amusement that we observe the international community once more descending to war and threats of war over what seems to be a trifle. We have never heard of this so-called "Hegemony"; and frankly, whether or not it was warmongering is quite irrelevant. We observe that British Londinium is up to its old tricks -- only a short time since it was decimated by the legions of Automagfreek and NATO, and it seems to have already forgotten the horrors of war; and when the sole voice of sanity is that of Arda it is most definitely a sign that something is dreadfully wrong.

In short, our private opinion is that the Freeks should have finished the job, the Hegemony should avoid empty threats against those more powerful than it, and everyone should learn some basic diplomacy. By the First World's standards we're a bunch of baby-killing warmongers, yet even we can handle a diplomatic situation with more aplomb than a five-year-old.

Dispatch Fleet deployed

War looks cirtain with Hegemony nations as the Royal Navy deploys to the area.
