Official Government Response


It is not typical of this nation to embrace one trying to take it over, we have not forgotten the wars against the Holy Sound and Echo Empires; however, due to the freedom permitted by the terms presented, and for the greater pursuit of world peace in order to avoid a long and drawn out conflict with the Autocratic Federated Empire, we will hereby accept these terms of annexation.

With Great Sincerity,

Excellent. Several delegates from Akimonad are on their way with a detachment of the Marines now. They should arrive in a day or so.

Official Communiqué - Federation of Caelapes - Executive Office of the Prime Minister

Encrypted Message

To the First Minister of Akimonad:

We extend our congratulations to you in your peaceful annexation of the Far Echo Islands. Although some members of Parliament were at first against the idea of Caelapes joining the Coalition of Allied Powers due to its stance on imperialism, the knowledge that such actions can be taken without bloodshed or particularly heightened tensions eases the minds of the entire Caelapene government. Should you require any assistance with the governance of your new annexation, the Government of Caelapes shall do its best to help you and your people.

Dum spiramus tuebimur.

The Rt. Hon. Richard Whitney, MP
Prime Minister, Federation of Caelapes

Ministry of State

We congratulate Akimonad on its successful annexation of CEFI as it is a victory for their nation as well as the CAP alliance. In addition, we have our own strategic interests in the region to consider and hope your nation will listen to our proposal. Our government is constantly seeking opportunities to construct new enclaves around the world, for our benefit as well as those of the nation which grants us the territory.

We require nothing more than a single island for this project, and the benefits are considerable. If you host a Vetalian enclave in the CEFI, you will:

1. Have an allied nation in close proximity in the event of problems.
2. Have a very powerful economic base which will generate significant revenue for your government through economic acceleration.
3. Give the CAP and your nation even more control over the country due to the sheer economic influence of the enclave, which will likely be enough to eventually dominate the local economy.

In addition, military forces will be dispatched to the area to ensure its security, although they are a mere garrison of 10,000 troops and a small naval force for anti-piracy operations.

Consider it, and we will pay you generously if you accept.
Regards,
Proconsul Eveginy Alabayev

Encrypted Transmission

The government of Fordock urges the Government of the Confederate States of the Far Echo Islands against accepting Vetalian enclaves on your land. We also question your decision on the Akimond issue. We ask if you are planning to resist as it seems you were forced into this action. Or did you just decide to give up all your rights? If you let them in now they can gradually take power while beating you over the head with their military. If you decide to resist this train of events Fordock has a gift for you that you will find useful.

May your decision be wise

Sincerely
Aukron Mekhrat
Minister of Diplomacy

End encryption

-snip-

We do not feel it is in the best present interests of both Akimonad and CFEI to accept foreign enclaves. Therefore your offer is politely declined/deferred.

It had not taken long for the First CFEI Detatchment to reach the waters of the Far Echo Islands. The ships of the detatchment, having fulfilled their mission, prepared to dock, alert for any treachery that may be attempted.

Proconsul Frederick Bremer stood on the deck of the flagship, the AMS Hodz, surveying the land in front of him. It was a great land, filled with great people, that he was to govern gently.

Allied Affairs Office

The Kiravian Empire, like our Fordockian friends, also questions the motives behind your decision, and agree that it seems forced.

Shortly off topic, we petition to Akimonad to let our forces remain in CFEI territory, as they are involved in a aftermath-management operation there to aid the CFEI.

Returning to the main topic, the Empire, as a representative of the Utopian Commonwealth, recognizes the continuing membership of the CFEI in said commonwealth.

We also inquire wheather the CFEI wil be permitted to trade freely with the us, and aid the Empire in defencive issues, per the terms of our alliance to them.

As of yet, we have no negative or positive position on this annexation, but will form one once information is recieved.

We assure the Kiravian Empire that the annexation and decision of CFEI was not forced.

Also, if your forces in CFEI were part of official CFEI policy prior to the annexation, then we cannot interfere, pursuant to the agreement.

However, CFEI will only be allowed to participate in operations it deems absolutely necessary for defense. If that consists of assisting the defense of an ally such as Kirav, then so be it, though CFEI will receive no help from Akimonad in matters not relating directly to the defense of its lands.

OOC: Did you read the declaration? I'm pratically giving CFEI destroyers - among other things.

IC:

Well, if you refer to us in such crude terms, we can assure you that your troops will not remain in CFEI long.

However, if you retract your heinous insult, we will allow your troops to stay, pursuant to the agreement.

And this is also quite the opposite of "imperialist aggression". It is our opinion that the Confederacy of the Far Echo Islands needs a steadfast defender, and we could see no other alternative.

Following the insulting message from the Fordock Ministry of "Diplomacy," the 19th Expeditionary Division Seaforce, commanded by Adjutant-Commander Victor Whitlock, is now in transit to international waters sixty nautical miles outside of the Far Echo Islands where they will be officially engaging in wargames and training exercises. They are fully armed, equipped, and on alert in the event that the foolish Fordock military makes any attempt at "liberating" your newly acquired territories.

The Tyrannical Mandalorian Empire applauds the actions taken by the nation of Akimonad. We ask, however, that Fordock best watch their mouth; a mouth like that with a nation your size could get you in a lot of trouble.

We also would like to inquire about purchasing an island. If the request is accepted, you name the price and it will be in your hands. If not, then that is fine as well...

Once again, great job in your bloodless campaign.

Quite your own prerogative. We take no official stance on this deployment, so far as you stay out of territorial waters unless authorized.

|OOC: A lot.|

In that case, nearly zero. There aren't a great deal of foreigners in Akimonad.

That would be up to CFEI.

Stabistan Official Policy


Stabistan does typically not approve of annexations or imperialism, but considering that the CFEI has agreed of it's own accord to the terms of the annexation agreement, we will take no current action. If, however, some sort of armed conflict is initiated, Stabistan will help the CFEI against any entity that attacks it.

We advise the CFEI to reconsider, but it is their choice.

It is noted and we are thankful for the Caelapesain support, but at the moment, we do not whish to see war break out, we have also advised Fordockian forces not to make foolish moves. As for you fleet, it does not matter to us unless it becomes a blockade.

The Arbiter looked over the agreement, made a awkward smile, and signed. "I hope things stay peaceful." He said.

"I hope so too." Bremer said, handing a stack of papers to the Arbiter. "You may wish to keep this as a copy of the agreement."

Bremer turned around to face the flagpole on the massive Super Dreadnaught. A drummer began playing a slow beat on a snare drum. Two uniformed seamen slowly began pulling the Akimonadi Naval Standard down. Once they had it down, they folded it into a triangle shape. One of the men marched over to Bremer, saluted and handed him the flag. Bremer turned around to the Arbiter.

"I present to you, and the people of the Far Echo Islands, the Super Dreadnaught AMS Hodz. It is hereby transferred to Echoese control. Do with it what you will." he said.

He handed the Arbiter the folded flag. "You shall find everything in working order. Our crew is prepared to train those that may work on this ship."
