It hit Erika like a lightning bolt, a glorious revalation to diffuse the situation. She wrote the idea down, smoothing out the creases and cementing the idea in her head. The next day, after consulation with the war council, her proposal was passed through parliament and become policy.


GREAT VANTANIA DECLARES WAR ON BRITISH LONDINIUM!

Today, the Democratic Empire of Great Vantania declared war on all of the Londinian territories outside of the region of Mediterranica. The cited reason Parliament gave were "Protection of the Londinian people from themselves and those that ride Freekish coattails, allowing them to focus on other foes." And so with that, the Democratic Empire plunges once more into war with the Londinians, bent on conquest. Empress Redmark has sent a request that the Londinians surrender immediantly, so as to prolong their lifespan and spar unnecesarry bloodshed.


The Levant

It began here. The fleet was in position from early, when deployed to protect Londinian colonies. Little did they know when they were sent that this was the opposite of their ultimate purpose. A broadcast was sent out to the Londinians

Due to the recent nuclear incident in Victoria and the resulting exodus of your people, we have deemed that you are incapable of protecting and governing your own people. As such, we are invading all territories of yours outside of Victoria. This will have your government and army completely freed up to fight the Freeks. So, we suggest you surrender and save your men for the real foe, let us handle the populace and send the taxes to you.

OOC: You're better off digging in with us and protecting the Levant. We've got a combined force of around 2,000 ships and 3 million soldiers here, and enough desert and urban combat to wear down a force 3 times that size.

Also, I've sent a million to each colony (2 million to Berincia) and sizable fleets. Your forces would be much appreciated.

OOC: Yes, I have sent colonial armies to help out BL's colonies, and we could use your help like Vet. has just said.

OOC: The way I see it, if someone like myself controls the colonies, he doesn't have to waste money on things like public transport, or his men defending the colonies, and still gets the benifits of money from the Londinians to fight AMF in Victoria. Speaking of which, you probably don't need all those people there, AMF has agreed to restrain himself to Victoria.

Hate to break it to you, but the Levant colony is now the new homeland. Victoria, though it will be fought for dearly, is more or less gone.

OOC: So, not even a struggle for Victoria? If so, consider this thread retconned. Disappointing, this could have been very interesting.

OOC: Of course we'll be fighting for Victoria. But it's so radioactive at the moment, it won't be habitable for centuries at the earliest.
