Shai, The People's Republic of The Ryou Black Islands.

The People's Congress has raised the Tarif on Cargo from the Queendom of Aqua Anu by $500 per Ton. "This is to help the economy," said Zsaihi Mistuo, Minister of Trade, "The raise in Tarif will be for the people, since it will fund public works."

The Tarif will only efect Aqua Anu Shipping.

As a result of the tariff Aqua Anu must also raise it's shipping prices of Ryou's cargo up $150 more (due to location) ($650 per ton)

The Sovereign Antarctican government issues a statement of neutrality in this conflict but advises the Ryou Black Islands government to watch who it goes rising tariffs on.

The Democratic Empire of Great Vantania would raise tariffs on the "nation" of Ryou Black Isles, but we've already embargoed them and detained all their nationals in the Democratic Empire.

The Vetalian government extends an offer to all nations affected by this tariff to purchase permits and warehousing space in our country to store and ship their products from our country. For a fee of only $10 per ton, only 2% of the RBI tariff, we will route your trade through Vetalian channels and enable your companies to circumvent the tariff.

This will reduce shipping costs, generate funds for continued improvements of port infrastructure in Vetalia, and restore the free market which is threatened by this tariff. If your company already has a permit for shipping goods in Vetalia, no fees will be charged. A general shipping permit costs $1 million per year and allows the unlimited shipment of goods via our ports. Either of these options are available to interested companies, and planned expansion of port infrastructure will open up significant new capacity for use over the next five years.

Contact the Bureau of Port Infrastructure at 99-388-19201 to discuss purchasing port usage permits and temporary rerouting permits.

Since this conflict does not concern the Empire, we will not take any sides.

On another note, we would like to inform the Ryous that the free trade declared between our nations has brought new life to some of the Colonial port cities, and had drastically reduced wood prices in the Erinava Colony. We thank them for such.

The Ryous were Not happy with The Reaction to the Tariff, in fact it shocked them that the world was overeacting over a small rise in the Tariff.

The Ryous were also fearful of a few other nations that were in the Ryou's eyes, Biggiots and Nazis, Aurum Domus and Vontanas chief among them.

and what also shocked them was Aqua Anu's Reaction by raiseing their own Tariffs. This was getting out of hand.

We have raised the tariff on Ryou products from 100 dollars to 675 dollars in reaction to the raise that they did on Aqua Anu. We kindly suggest that they raise taxes instead of tariff's.

"Well..." Mikau said.

"Mother are you sure raising it that high was needed?"

"Sweetheart, you still have to learn more about Economics. Yes, first of all we have other tarrifs to pay with our other trade partners. This inflated tarrif is expensive. We need to cover the cost of it."

"Ryou may just raise it higher."

"Then we would simply break it off. What of the proposal we recived?"

"Hard to say. Ryou has not accpeted yet."

The Binarian Empire Fully suports the actions of its ally, although we will not be burning any Ryou for fear of polluting our lands with the remains of products that most likely are filled with toxic materials that would harm our wildlife, and wilderness.

"Aye, I heard that Kanna wants us to start raiding Aqua Anuien shipping." said Reni "Black Heart" Misyu, a Pirate Capitan of the Bloody Mary. "Seems that She wants us to help The Government send Queen Mikaux a Messenge." "Well," Nani Ryukan, also known as "The Pirate Priestess" said, "I think that war is coming. the Premeir wants to impove the Economy, while Aqua Anu thinks we are out to inpovish them." Reni looked at The Shrine Maiden turned Pirate.

This was the Pub called the "Dragon's Wench", talking about orders from Kanna, the so-called "Grand Admiral of The Pirates", to start attacking Aqua Anuien ships, even Warships. Kanna took her orders only from Premeir Rei Nakagishima her self. The Pirates were going to start the raid against them at once.

Nani thought it was a declaration of war. "This will get the Aqua Anuien Fleet after us, We already have the Kuronan and Stevidian Navys lookingout for us." "Now, now Nani," Reni said, "They will never dare try attacking our ships in Ryou Waters." Nani smiled and left to her ship, The Katana.

We would be very interested to know if the Queendom would be interested in accepting our proposal to reroute their trade as a way of circumventing the tariffs on goods from their nation. If you accept, the Ryou will be effectively forced to repeal this tariff or risk seeing their collections off of Aqua Anu goods fall to nothing, an end which we feel is in the best interest of all parties in the matter.

And if the Ryou feel they can simply apply tariffs on Vetalian goods to compensate, they will feel the full brunt of a trade war against their nation. Free trade is in the interest of all involved parties, and our efforts seek to make that clear to all parties involved.

If you accept, our settlement officers will set to work calculating the price of rerouting all of your trade and shipment will begin immediately.

The Queendom is quite interested in this proposal. The Ryouiens need to understand Aqua Anu is going to great lengths to trade with them. The distance alone is costly, these increased tariffs only make it harder.

"And they shall understand it, if they see that the Vetalians themselves have taken interest in keeping the routes open. Our country will be able to push them to understand free trade will do more to develop their lands than any tariff."

Outside the Harbor of Shabaalia

Nani was soon sailing off from Shabaalia on her ship, The Katana, which was a Doujin Class Super Dreadnought, one she "Bought" (Well, Stole to be corect) from a Black Market Arms dealer. Nani looked out at the sea, knowing what she, and the other Pirates of The Ryou Black Islands were going to do would meen that they would be hunted down by The Aqua Anu Fleet, and the Aqua Anuiens might find out who sic the Pirates on them.

Nani soon ordered her men to prepare for action...........once they entered The Edge of Aqua Anuien Waters.

I'm not open to an invasion, at least on my soil. If Aqua Anu were to invade it wouldn't fully annex Ryou, it would stabilize it though most likely modled after the Queendom, and leave a military base behind. Small mele 's with pirates is okay. Aqua Anu has among the best Anti-Piracy Units in the World. But I can't say Stevid will race to help you. Aqua Anu has an alliance with Kanami, which in turn is mending it's relationship with Stevid. The last thing Stevid wants to do is re-alienate Kanami.

Also Ryou please stop hiding behind me all the time because now whenever you start a new thread i'm terrified to find out that by page three i'm at war with several nations.

Also TRBI, my NS wiki makes my stance on this particularly clear. I'm anti-pirate and always have been. I'd be fighting 100% for the safety and well being of Aqua Anu shipping (and any other nations' shipping that is in your waters).

I'll post later but I have a busy day ahead.

2. I don't particularly care about pirates unless they attack my ships. If they do, rest assured we will hunt down every single one of them and destroy the governments backing them if that turns out to be the case.
