Dear Silver Sky,

We here at the VDB would like to offer you a deal. You get an embassy and a consulate in our nation, we get some in yours. Also, we both sign a Free Trade Agreement.

Signed,

The Four Princes of the VDB

OOC: In the game I'm going as The Sovereign Empire of Australia [TSEA], not TSS.

Dear The Four Princes of the VDB,

We are most accepting of this deal, free trade is a corner stone of Australia, which has one of the top 3 most free markets in the world. So a free trade agreement and embassies too boot is too good to pass up.

Consider the offer accepted.

Signed,
President Kara H. Maddox

To: The Sovereign Empire of Australia


The Imperium of Brazil wishes to open relations with The Sovereign Empire of Australia. We first wish to exchange embassies as well as possibly sign a Free trade agreement to exchange goods between our nations.

President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva

To: President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, Imperium of Brazil
From: Prime Minister Kara H. Maddox, The Sovereign Empire of Australia

An embassy exchange would be most appreciated, a building will be prepared for your ambassadors in Canberra. And a free-trade agreement would be redundant, Australia is already free trade.
