It was final. The President had Authorization from the Parliament to move Forward in his plans. As he walked from the Parliament Chamber Rooms he had a clean look of Satisfaction on his face. President Jefferson Davis walked towards his armored Limousine waiting for him out side the Parliament. He and his Motorcade made its way through the Streets of Bogatra back to the Presidential Manor. In 2 hours the President would address the Nation and then Zackaroth. When he finally got back to the Manor he quickly retrieved his speech and made his way to The Press Conference Room. The Room was empty except for one Camera and Several of his Administrative Staff. The Camera operator signaled to the President that he was live in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.


Good Afternoon, My Fellow Americans. I wish to Announce to the Nation and the World plans that were approved just a few Hours ago by the Parliament. Plans that My administration is extremely excited about. The Order of America has embarked on a Campaign to Retrieve lost territory as a result of Operation Micturating Business Man. I assure you this Operation will not involve any Military action, but only peaceful Negotiations. Now, I wish to outline the Point of all of this. Our nation wishes to retrieve the the Territory currently in the possession of Zackaroth, Restore and Reintegrate those who were cut from the OoA Citizenship back into our society. This will be the Final step in the Healing process that our nation has been through since we were attacked during Operation Micturating Business Man. With the Completion of this Operation our nation will be whole once more. We hope that the Citizens of the OoA will support us in this matter. We would also hope that once Negotiations are completed we will be able to except the residents of the Zackaroth Territory back into our Nation. We are very excited to host Zackarothian Ambassadors and we hope that our People will welcome them into our country. Thank You For Your Time, and Good Night.

We would first off like to say that this does not involve Military actions on our Nations part so do not be alarmed. We are though willing to except ambassadors from your nation in order to perhaps set a trade up. The Negotiations would of course be hosted by our Nation. If you are willing to Trade please let us know.

Sincerely,
George Kong
Prime Ambassador

OOC: If your offers are idiotic, then I might declare war... ;)


IC:

The Mandalorian Empire will be attending these negiotiations, even if not invited. That land was once Maldorian terrority and we wish to see what happens to it. We will be sending a diplomat of little importance to the conference.

~The Mandalore.
-Supreme Ruler of Maldorians.

To: Maldorians
From: The OoA
Your Diplomat will be welcome in our lands and will be treated fairly by the Government Officials. We will begin the Negotiations as soon as Zackaroth sends his diplomat.

The Autocratic Federated Empire inquires about the possibility of sending a diplomat to help observe and mediate the negotiations (if required).

Please reply with an answer.

~Dr. Jules Hodz
Undersecretary, Akimonad

Your Diplomat is Graciosly Accepted into our Fair Lands

El Bumpo

I shall be coming myself. I will arrive in twenty four hours.

Aimless von Strangaild, High leader of Zackaroth.

The High Leader of Zackaroth is Accepted

OOC: I will be on tomorrow at about 2pm CT hopefully we can get this thing goin.......

Thomas Vanek would like to come, as the VDB have long been a neighbor to the Order of America. Vanek would like to come as our delegate and asks for permission to speed in his Bugatti_Veyron (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bugatti Veyron) so he gets there quickly.

I'm going to watch this.
I'm from yet another alliance on unofficial business here to tell the world if something happens.

Besides, one of our members is involved so I have a right to.

A Motorcade is currently located at Bogatra International Airport Awaiting the Arrival of The invited Guests. Once the Delegates arrive they Will be Imeidiently Transported to the Military Spire where the Negotiations will take place. There is a Possibility that the President will not be Present for the Meeting thus at this point, The Vice President will preside over the Negotiations.

Bogatra International Airport

A Bugatti Veyron (http://www.caradisiac.com/media/images/le_mag/mag288/bugatti-veyron.jpg) roared out of nowhere right in front of the motorcade and parked perfectly. Suddenly police sirens appeared right from where the Veyron had come from. Thomas Vanek stepped out of the car, with his trustly backpack. The police handcuffed him, but then Vanek said, "I'm here for the conference." The policewoman apologized and went away, taking off the handcuffs.

"Well, where's everybody?"

The High Leader arrived with out incdient. After saying a few hellos and shaking hands, he was transported to the Military Spire and into the confernce room. He sat down at the table and waited for the negotiations to start.

OOC: All Delegates Currently at the airport have been transported to Military Spire....

OOC: I would like to participate in these negotiations, and send a diplomat to the conference. Is that ok with you, OoA?

OOC: Hey, we invited the Maldorians I am sure your Invitation won't be a Problem.......and as you were involved in Operation:BoneCrusher Makes it all the better.......sure just announce your Invite with an IC......but of course you probably already know to do that......

OOC: Thanks mate!

IC:

The Wilhelm-Hatarian Empire takes a great deal of interest in the political affairs of the Order of America. As the nation of Maldorians has decided to take part in the talks, we have decided to send a representative of our own.

We respectfully ask the Order of America to be prepared to recieve our representative, Cdr. Michael Collins. We have supplied a photo so he will be better recognized when he arrives.

OOC: feel free to start any time OoA

OOC: if all of the Delegates have arrived I guess we can get started.....

Yep, this is the thread where I pulled an awesome parking job right next to the motorcade. With my awesome car (http://www.vroom.be/images/news/13/jpg/2005101401861772_01.jpg). I'm losing track of my threads. Anyway, I'm here.

OOC: if all of the Delegates have arrived I guess we can get started.....

Aight.

IC:
Frederick Bremer walked in. To some, he might be a familiar face.

He sat down.

Jaster Mereel, Maldorian diplomat of little importance, stepped into the Military Spire with nothing but his small, black briefcase and a smirk across his face. I can rest assured that this meeting will be nothing but a bunch of crap. "Let me introduce. I'm Jaster Mereel and I wi-" Mereel quickly stopped and looked in the direction of the door. In came Cdr. Michael Collins of Wilhelmborough. What the hell!?! Who brought him in? Mereel soon sat down and glared at Mr. Collins...

OOC: Hope your guy coming in was fine with you, Wilhelmsborough...

Thomas Vanek walked into the spire, noting two men where already there. He walked up to both of them, and said, "Welcome, I'm Thomas Vanek from the VDB," and offered his hand to shake.

Vice President Don Winstead Was walking through the halls of his Super tall Skyscraper, The Military Spire when his PDA began to buzz. He Pulled it out of his Pocket Glanced down at his PDA and Immeidiently began to make his way to the Main Conference Room. He had been very Upset with The President of late as the President had to attend the Prestonian Inauguration he decided to dump his idiotic plan on The Vice President along with the Authority of Acting Commander-in-chief. He had begged the President to stay until after the Conference but Jefferson insisted on getting an early start to the Ceremonies. When he finally came out of his deep thoughts he noticed that he arrived at the Conference room. His Secret Service escorted him into the room. After he had taken a seat at the Head of the Table he told the Secret Service that their Presence was no longer necessary. They Left the room without so much as a questioning look at The Vice President. Winstead then Pulled out his papers on the Presidents plan and pressed a button on the table. As soon as Don Winstead pressed it a Flat screen TV with a Map of the Currently held territory of The OoA/Zackaroth. The Vice President thaen turned to his Guests and said Loudly and Slowly, " Welcome.......To The OoA". He Then Continued by saying," I Hope You have all enjoyed your Brief stay here. Now onto business, You all know why we are here. The President and the Rest of the Country strongly beleive that the Land currently under Zackaroth Control is rightfully ours. We are also willing to give Zackaroth any thing they might want to obtain it. We will be willing to give oil, Money, or anything else that Zackaroth Might be Interested in".

"Well," said Bremer, "What does Zackaroth want, then?"

That is, of Course the same thing we are asking.

El Bumpo

" Yes indeed, but do you have anything we want? We are an oil producing country, so we have no need for it. Paying us? We gave up alot for that land and nothing short of 10 billion USD will be enough. And also if you all would please look at that charts I have provided, unemployment has reached an all time low. lower then when it belonged to you or the Maldorians. I fear if we leave that will result in Zackarothian companies leaving and the people will lose jobs. Also if you look at land we gave the previous owner, it is much bigger than we got. But if you are looking for a deal then I have one in mind" Aimless smiled.

" You shall not recognize any and all of the country Ucrea's rules or terms they have applied on you, if they do still apply to you, your nation shall become a protected nation under Zackaroth, Zackaroth will be able to keep a sum of twelve military bases within your country to allow rapid response incase of an outside or internal threat, also you must pay Zackaroth 10 billion USD upfront or a sum of 100 million USD each month until the 10 billion sum is reached. How does that sound to you Mr. Winstead ?" said Aimless, once again smiling.

Cdr Michael Collins had remained silent as he listened to the representatives from the Order of America and Zackaroth speak. But now, the native of County Cork felt that he could be silent no longer.

"Excuse me," he interjected. "But I feel that I must throw in my 2 cents here." he turned to VPWinstead.

"Mr. Vice President, I can personally understand how important it is for your country to retrieve what's been taken from you. However, I believe that in your quest to negotiate that you're putting too much out on the table at once."

The Irish man took a breath. "You said to Mr. Aimless that your country was willing to do anything to get its land back. I don't believe that this is the correct course of action. A poker player doesn't reveal his hand, and a negotiator like yourselve shouldn't put everything on the line in the hopes of regaining its territory."

Commander Collins leaned back in his seat. "So I ask you, Mr. Vice President, to reconsider your offer to do anything. It's just an invitation for disaster. There has to be something smaller, but reasonable that you can do."

Yes, I Must Agree with Cdr Collins, but as you well know for such a small nation our Economy is Immensely Strong. If your Economy is so powerful what need do you have of a Small territory that is still suffering from the attacks carried out by the CA. You must remember, this is where our Capitol City once was. These People are tired of Occupation of Foreign Forces. I must ask, when you first began Negotiating with the Maldorians was it for The OoA's Benefit or yours? The Old Men who live in this land where the Ones who fought for an Independent Nation. The Largest support came for the Revolution came from this territory. These People wanted a Free Nation of there own. If Zackaroth has any decency in there nation perhaps they will treat their Colonials with respect and reward them with what they have desired moat for over 50 years. We will not allow you to construct Military bases in our nation. That Proposal has displayed a more Imperialistic Nature that is out of Character of the Nation of Zackaroth. We will not so easily surrender our sovereignty to any nation. The OoA will not become reliant on another's Military. As such I wish to propose another deal: We will allow you to Maintain an Economic and Military Presence in this region(Not the Entire Nation but The Region under Discussion). If you allow our Economy in the area, If you allow Military Bases coherent but separate from yours, and if you allow all Residents of the Area to become Citizens of our nation if they so choose. All laws of the OoA will apply in this region. If any Soldier Crosses over the boundary between The OoA and this Shared territory it will be considered a severe breach in our sovereignty, but other than this we would basically share the territory. Is this Acceptable?

" No. I am willing to let the bases slide. I wanted to see how badly you wanted your land back. As for your current suggestion i believe it will work but under one condition: you pay us back the 10 billion. If your Economy is so strong then you will have no problem paying us 100 million a month until your debt is paid off. Unless this condidtion is met, I will not agree to these terms or any terms at all and that area will remain under Zackarothian control" said the High Leader as he stared back at Vice Presdient with an unblinking gaze.

"Yes, This is all well and good, but what have you given us that will make us pay you money? I beleive that you have lost nothing in his agreement have you not? You are still benefiting from the Economic support this region has given you are you not? We owe you nothing, but we will be willing to pay you 6.7 billion dollars at the Most.

Michael Collins spoke up again.

"If $6.7 billion is all that the Order of America can afford to pay, then the Empire would be more than willing to lend you the remaining $3.3 Billion, provided that you pay us back over the span of ten years."

He smiled at the Vice President. "What do you say to that offer?"

" I suggest you take Mr. Collins advice. I shall not be giving control to you unless you agree to pay the 10 billion" Aimless said, unwavering in his descion.

"Are you Implying that if we pay You the Money that you will give us complete Control of the Land in Question?"

El Bumpo?

Jaster Mereel sighed. This Aimless fellow is more of an idiot than I thought. Instead of selling the land for measy dollars, he could have built up OoA, making it much more profitable than a measy 10 billion USD. Staring at Aimless, Mereel chuckled to himself as he shifted in his seat.

El Bumpooooooo!!!
