The Grand Imperial Alliance (MT)

30-08-2007, 02:33
With the growing number of attacks upon the nations ruled by a royal, noble, or a family Dynasty the Scandinvan Empire has decided to revive an old alliance proposal which has long sat in the halls of the House of Lords unused. So now after being pushed through both the Parliament and the House of Lords, by the urging of the Emperor, it has now been passed and approved by the High Council of the Emperor, which could have been passed through without the approval of the legislative branch of government. As well, the government has reformed the old charter to fight into the current times and also has made a number of new terms for their to be a more exclusive membership then to allow possible enemies or spies in.

So now the Scandinvan Empire has sent out a request for all interested nations to join the Grand Imperial Alliance so as to create a strong force in the world that is a force of nations working together for their common benefit in a confederacy of free monarchies.

To promote the return of the memebrs of the old GIA the new alliance council has allowed all former members to return, with the condition that the old government has not been overthrown and as such any nations that have become a pure republic, democracy, or other state without a monarch with offical titles will not be allowed to take the place of the old regieme.

Mission:
The mission of the Grand Imperial Alliance is to act as a common force for the greater good of the alliance and to preserve the traditional forms of governments in the member nations of the Alliance.

The Celtic Empire of the Hills would be honored to be admitted to this alliance. The reigning family is the Crowleys. However we rarely go through the direct bloodline for the next heir.

Should we be admitted we would like to know, do we need to post our full forces or just those we are willing to devote to the GIA's cause at any given time?

I am interested in this alliance...I have a Imperial House...which wields full power politically and over the military...I also have an elected senate and an elected high council...ministry positions are appointed by the Emperor.

One question...about adding troops...I take it we're allowed to donate funds to maintain the army but we don't have to send troops into it...I would put troops in during a time of war...and keep them on standby during peace time but not in the alliance's "pool"....during peacetime I would send in funds and equipment...

OOC: Seems good, I haven't been in an alliance since the RWC which turned out to be pretty crap. I'll apply.

IC:
The Holy Empire of Stevid wishes to join this alliance in accordance with the new government policy of promoting peace and good relations with countries all over the world in the ending wake of the Golden War of Succession. Stevid is a Parliamentary Democracy and a Constitutional Monarchy. The King, King Alistair I, holds reasonable political power. He has the final say on bills pushed through the Commons and the Lords thus disilusion of the Morachy is highly unlikely. The PM has to meet with the King twice a week and relations must be promoted but differences are tolerated.

We hope we are eligible.

Thank you for your time.

EDIT: We have an exceptionally strong military that held the line countless times against the Second Empire of the Golden Throne (A very powerful member of the NATO Alliance), a position on the war council would be most welcome.

His Majesty king George expresses interest in joining the Imperial Alliance.

The Empire has maintained a strict policy of political isolation for some decades now. As such His Majesty would like to convey that upon your acceptance of the Empire into this primordial venture, the economy will not be opened up, beyond the trading and importing of Tea Bags without limit.

His Majesty would also like to use this opportunity to inform you that as of this time, foreign deployment of the Royal Fusiliers is deemed impossible in any situation that does not directly effect the security of the realm, the Empires allies and her vassals.

Providing that the above amendments can be accepted in regard to the charter, then the Empire will formally apply for membership.

If not, then she shall continue her period of isolation in seeking life, liberty and happiness for her people.

Yours Sincerely,

Mavil Whetherly.

Foreign Secretary.

FROM: His Majesty King Webb, Royal Monarch of the Kingdom of Enatai.

His Majesty King Webb would consider it the highest of honors to be accepted into the Grand Imperial Alliance for reasons of safety, security, and the promotion of global peace through alliances such as these.

Enatai is defended around the clock by soldiers of only the finest Enatai has to offer, and Enatai is ready and willing to fight for the Alliance as any situation dictates.

Enatai also wishes to establish trade if possible. The government-owned FutureMark industries can trade many different kinds of military and (to a slightly lesser extent) scientific technologies, bartering optional.

Enatai hereby cordially requests acceptance into the Grand Imperial Alliance.

Having seen some of the other members who have joined, the Hills are slightly worried. We are in no other alliance. We know that other members here are also in other alliances. What worries us is being dragged into a war that is between two or more other alliances. Not only that but we are worried that if two allainces go to war and the GIA has members from both, what are we to do?
