A Brief History...
The history of the country that was up until June 1950 known as Franc is a complex and rich one. A battle fighting nation, they warred with many neighbours, and at some points had the largest colonial Empire in the world, stretching from Western Europe to Vietnam. However, wars with neighbouring nations in their colonials and politic unrest of the people, who demanded freedom, saw for the Franco Commission of the Fate of the Republic (FCFR) to be formed. From 1940 to late 1949 they took evidence, visited the countries ruled by the Franc country and finally put forward the recommendation to the current President of the Franc Republic, Émile Ollivier, that they set a goal of forming a new Confederation of states ruled by the Franc Republic that where willing to remain by a target of 1962.
But the change came quicker, and by May 1950 all nineteen states ruled by the Franc Republic had to make the choice whether they would stay and reap the benefits of the Confederation of the nations, the benefits were in the Franco Confederation New Constitution, or go it alone. Sadly, many chose the later, though are part of new Federations or states currently as well. But France (& Corsica) managed to maintain control of Belgium, Singapore and Andorra, and put in place a new set of guidelines that created equal, Social Democratic states ruled by an elected Ministry. Since then, the Franco Confederations main goals which they have reached or not yet can be seen in their motto - Peace; they maintain peaceful relations with all and try not to intervene in conflicts - Prosperity; they are one of the richest, most politically influential nations in the world, and there citizens have high earnings - and Power...

DPW Foreign Affairs Council
To whomever it may concern:
I realize that you must have many pressing issues to deal with, so i'll keep it simple. Given that our two nations are in immediate proximity of one another, I feel that it would be enormously advantageous of us to establish close diplomatic relations. You get a prime embassy location in our capital city, and we get one in yours. I hope that's agreeable. Please send your reply directly to me.
Sincerely,
Andries Jansen
Chancellor and Foreign Affairs Councilor

Quick and simple-who cares about rping?
I'd like to have an economic and if you want, military alliance with you possibly and if not, then some embassies in our two countries.
Official Diplomatic Communiqué
Personally Addressed to the Honourable Andries Jansen,
We look forward to cordial relations with our neighbours. Your embassy request is acceptable, and we would also like one in your fine nation.

Official Diplomatic Communiqué
Personally Addressed to the Honourable Prince Counsel,
We are interested in improving ties with your nation, mostly due to the fact you control a waterway which although is not vitally important to us, is useful and highly taxed. We know you have the right to tax your waterways as high as you want, but perhaps if you lowered the tax the Franco Confederation must pay, say halve it, in exchange for us lowering tariffs on Franco goods - something we could both benefit on. As for an military alliance, knowing so little about your nation we feel to jump into one of them would be unwise, though we are open to listen to what your plans for an economic alliance would be.

I changed it for all nations-go and look.

Well, Honako ships could pay no fees for the canal, and no tariffs or embargoes unless in war.
OOC: What's the difference between a consulate and an embassy? I have no clue

Hello, I am writing you on behalf of the Ministry of Defence and my own department in Foreign Affairs.
For my department, I wish to exchange embassies with your nation. Simply, relations with other European nations are of great importance to the Scandinavian Republic.
On behalf of Defence, the Ministry of Defence has noticed that you have the Clemenceau awaiting to be scrapped. Instead of scrapping the ship, we are wondering if we can take the aging ship off your hands. We thank you in advance.

Official Diplomatic Communiqué To The Scandinavian Republic
Sadly, this ship has already been sold to another nation. If we had merely established the EC earlier, you could have recieved it due to our "European nations first policy" but we have already promised it to another nation. We hope this does not damage relations, and we will accept your offer of an embassy, and offer you one in Paris. Considering in the next few months you could have a mutual defence pact with us due to your request to join the EC, it is important we have easy ways of contact with people from your nation.
- Franco Ministry of Defence
Official Diplomatic Communiqué To The Imperium of Brazil
Whilst we cannot take any from our stock, we are willing to create in the Franco Confederation 200 Leclerc main battle tanks for you to purchase for $3 billion. The production will take a number of years, and as with all major purchases a non-aggression pact of at least a guaranteed length of fifteen years will be offered to make sure they are not used against us.
- Franco Ministry of Defence
Official Diplomatic Communiqué To The Republic of Droskianishk
We will accept your offer of an embassy, and offer you one in Paris, and a consulate in Singapore. We hope relations will improve in the future, and that trade between our nations will continue to increase as it does so now.

From: The Brazilian Imperium
Subject: FTA
The Imperium of Brazil wishes to strengthen its ties with the Franco Confederation. To do this we think it’s in both of our best interest to sign a free trade agreement. This would bring goods to both of our nations that are not available. We hope the Franco Confederation agrees with this statement. We would also like to purchase the Clemenceau which has been retired by the french navy. We can give you 600 Million USDs. We also need 40 Eurocopter Dauphin for our Federal Police Force.
