OOC: As the primary thread became rapidly cluttered, this thread is for RP of the occupation and rebuilding of North Calaveras. For reference, the map of the Londinian sector (http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z259/pertinax201/MapCalaverasLondii.png), the map of the Vetalian sector (http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a335/shaddamIV/northcalaveras.png), and the claims map (http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z259/pertinax201/divviedupncjn7.png). Red is BL, purple is Vetalia, green is CP, and yellow is Animarnia.

City design unveiled for Davidsongrad

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/d/d7/Try2004.gif/300px-Try2004.gif

Proconsul Marcus Lætonius, occupational governor of Londinian Calaveras, has released the new design for the territorial capital of Davidsongrad, formerly known as Kashingrad.

Planned by famed architect Cecilia Metelli, designer of 80 Camilleri Street (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/6d/Phare1.jpg), Davidsongrad will be a large pyramidal arcology designed to house around one million people.

The perimeter will be 2,800 kilometres, with an area of eight square km. Davidsongrad Arcology comprises eight differ sub-pyramidal structures.

Davidsongrad would be zoned into residential, commercial and leisure areas. 50 km² will be given over to some 240,000 housing units, enough for 750,000 people. Each building would have its own energy resources (sun and wind). 24 km² will be assigned to offices and commercial facilities intended to employ 800,000 people. The remaining 14 km² would be used for administrative and military offices.

Transportation within the city would be provided by accelerating walkways, inclined elevators, and a personal rapid transit system where individual driverless pods would travel within the trusses. Housing and office space would be provided by 30-story high skyscrapers suspended from above and below, and attached to the pyramid's supporting structure with nanotube cables.

Construction is slated to begin within the month as radiological cleanup operations in the area come to an end.

General Government of Vetalian Calaveras

Today marks the beginning of a new era in the rehabilitation of North Calaveras. The Vetalian Senate, under the wise guidance of Praetor Melnikov and his staff, have appropriated 27 billion rubles as compensation to the first 250,000 settlers that volunteer for relocation to Vetalian Calaveras. This amounts to R108,000 per person, or roughly $200,000 USD in compensation. Already, interest in the program has been enthusiastic and the government is carefully reviewing the applicants to ensure they will provide a strong base for the reemerging regional economy. The Praetor has announced that this program will be kept in place for 10 years, with each additional year seeing increases in the quota and changes in payment according to the overall situation in the new territory.

In other news, the government has also appropriated funds to encourage investment in the new territory by commercial interests. Tax credits for the construction of a wide variety of businesses have been approved to stimulate iinvestment in the region, and the government has auctioned off millions of acres for mining and forestry projects. The goal is to create a self-sustaining economy for the region within a decade and for full economic recovery to be in place within fifteen years.

Questions and comments can be directed to the Viceroyal Temporary Palace in Melnikova.

Best wishes,
V.P. Vladimir Bakunov

The Free Empire of New Vantania would like to purchase a section of North Calaveras, preferably a section on the coast. We will pay fifty billion for such territory. We would prefer either northeastern Vetalian Calaveras or southeastern Calaveras Londii.

OOC: That is a really cool design, BL.

Official Londinian Communiqué

http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z259/pertinax201/blflagsmall.png

To New Vantania:

At this time, the Ministry of Colonial and Provincial Affairs has prohibited the Proconsular Office from placing territory or lands in Londinian Calaveras for sale to foreign powers. However, you may build on a small plot of land in an area of your choice, under the supervision of the People's Sovereign Government of British Londinium. By doing so, you submit all workers and materials to Londinian law, and agree to recognize the sovereign authority of Kensington in Londinian Calaveras.

Plans must be submitted to the Proconsular Office thirty (30) days before construction begins for approval.

Sincerely,
Marcus Lætonius
Marcus Lætonius, MSSc
Proconsul of Londinian Calaveras

Office of Territorial Affairs

We would be willing to discuss land rentals on an island off the coast of our northernmost province in Vetalian Calaveras. Instead of transferring sovereignty we would be willing to rent the land for a period of 100 years at $500 million per year. During this time, all tax collection and legal affairs will be managed by your government and we will treat said territory as sovereign territory of your nation.

However, the Vetalian Government reserves the right to revoke this lease should it be necessary. If interested, please respond as quickly as possible to ensure that the island is fully prepared for transfer.

-Consul Svetlana Ligacheva, Office of Territorial Affairs, General Government of Vetalian Calaveras.

To: Vetalian Office of Territorial Affairs
From: The Hegemony

The Hegemony wishes to rent the offered land, and wishes to know if any further offers will be made available in the near future.

-Lord Sumguy, Hegemon

OOC: This is coming out of the Hegemony humanitaian aid budget, which is made up of donations of 1% of each member nation's total annual budget.

OOC: is that 500 million per square mile?

OOC: $500 million per year for the entire island. It's tiny, but more than enough for a significant base.

General Government Press Release #29

Melnikova, Central Province

Today marks a new era in the recovery of Vetalian Calaveras as Praetor Melnikov and his staff ceremonially personally laid the cornerstone of the central building that will one day house the Institute for Applied Radiology as part of the Vetalian Space Agency's new Physics Research Campus in Melnikova. The stone is made of compressed trinitite, the greenish glass produced by the necessary nuclear attack against North Calaveras by our ally British Londinium.

On the stone is engraved a poem in Vetalian, written in honor of the institute's work, both in conquering space and unlocking the secrets of the atom 80 years ago:

"И наши тем награждены усилья,
Что поборов бесправие и тьму,
Мы отковали пламенные крылья
Своей
Стране
И веку своему!"

Translated from Vetalian to English: "And the reward for our efforts was that, having triumphed over oppression and darkness, we have forged wings of fire for our land and our century!"

This is truly a grand day for Vetalian Calaveras, and to further honor it the Vetalian Mint has placed the institute on next year's 10-kopeck coins as part of its "Achievements of the Century" commemorative series. Interested collectors can contact the mint or its subsidiary in Vetalian Calaveras for pre-orders of proof and uncirculated sets. Prices for the 2030 proof series begin at R10.50 and will begin sales this December.

Message to Vetalia.

Greal Look. Incorporated would like to rent a small sector with no troops at all, only cleanup crews.

From,

Look Incorporated headquarters.

Office of Territorial Affairs

How much land would you be interested in renting? Since the land will have no troop deployments, we will discount rental costs by 50%.

Look Incorporated headquarters

Office of Territorial Affairs

We will rent the land for either $100 or $200 million per year, depending on whether you wish the land to be decontaminated or not prior to transfer. Either way, you will receive the land at the end of next month.

Office of Territorial Affairs


Look Incorporated will decontaminated the small sector. we will install a small dock in the area. Look Inc. wishes to buy 2000 more square miles for refugee camps.

Look Incorporated.

Office of Territorial Affairs

We will approve the transfer of land and authorize the construction of a port. However, we no longer permit the construction of refugee camps in our territory as all North Calaveras citizens previously inhabiting Vetalian Calaveras have been repatriated to the territory provided to them by Greal.

This amount will total $160 million per year for 15 years, after which the deal can be renegotiated as needed.

Office of Territorial Affairs

May Look Inc. still buy the additonial 2000 square miles? We are currently sending a small team first before the main group arrives at the sector, the small team will map the area.


Look Inc. Headquarters.



OOC: How long is a NS month?

OOC: It depends, usually I RP one day as anywhere from one month to a year. Since this RP is a little faster than others, you could RP your stuff now or just wait an hour or so.

Office of Territorial Affairs

We approve the transfer, and we will charge a net $250 million per year to rent the 2,000 square miles of land for 15 years. After this point, the deal can be renegotiated if needed.

This land can be used for any purpose legal under Vetalian law and we will continue to collect taxes on it since it is legally still territory of the General Government. However, you are free to develop it as you wish within the confines of the law and no protest or restriction will be applied to legal activities.

The remaining people cryed, and said there last goodbyes as they split off to the various factions that had taken over.

The Londian Calaveras looked in disbelieve after hearing that they could not return to a NC held colony.

Citizen: This is an outrage, what makes you think you can just control us!: People walked up to military forces almost rioting.

Official Prestonian Statement
With reconstruction underway, the Prestonian government hereby turns authority over to the the Calaverans. Let it be known that it was never the intention to occupy the region, but rather to rebuild in the wake of the Londinian attack. We do not wish to rule ill-gotten territory for one second longer than we have to.

OCC: So the NC get your territory Central?

OOC: You get the green areas on the map, it seems. But this doesn't change the fact that your citizenry is in an internment camp in Tasmania.

OCC: someone post a map.

OOC: I have. Look at the bloody first post.

OCC: please BL quite acting like ur on your period, you dont need to say Bloody and crap, just tell me.

General Government News Release #33

By Order of the Viceroyal Praetor Vladimir Bakunov:

Effective immediately, all lands under the control of the Vetalian government are hereby placed under martial law. This declaration suspends all civil rights and right of transportation between sections for all non-Vetalian and non-Londinian citizens until the security situation has been firmly resolved. The Occupation Army will be expanded to 500,000 men and we will dispatch additional naval forces to ensure the continued security of our efforts in the region.

This order permits the use of deadly force to subdue any potential conflicts caused by dissidents or subversive groups.

300 NC Vet citizens were outraged at the realease, a crowd shortly formed, and approached occupation forces.

Women: The Communist party would never do this!!!

Man: Go to hell!!!

The Free Empire happily went about administering their sector, named Hellhole, disallowing anyone from a Hegemonic nation, itself aside, in.

Office of Territorial Affairs

Greal would like to rent some 3000 sq miles.


Greal Foreign Affairs Department.



IC: Look Inc. ships went to the new small port at the newly bought sector, which was to be called, Vallin. 20 security gaurds first got off the ship along with a few NC civilians they hired to guide the gaurds through the land, then cleanup crews and more security gaurds got off. Amoung the group was Chairman of Look Inc. Mark Ramlin, the richest man in Greal.
