The Slave Trade union will be a group of nations banded together to safely trade whatever product they wish to without any fear of any other nations interfering. In the past, Strator has attempted to set up an international slave trade, but was attacked by several nations all claiming the slave trade and injust and terrible breach of human rights. But, If slave trade was so bad, then how did it survive throughout the ages, and If they are so against it, then why do they make slaves of horses and other animals?

In addition to protection of trading rights, the slave trade union offers some form of protection from other nations, Strator pledges his aid to any nation who wishes to go about their own rule however they want.

So? what are you waiting for?

Official Government Message

The practice of slavery is cruel and unjust. Comparing the use of horses to people is like saying eating animal meat is the same as eating a human. They are completely different circumstances. Furthermore, there are various breeds of animals around the world bred for doing specific tasks, such as a hound dog. Humans are not meant to be forced into labor. All humans deserve fair treatment. The Orbathain government urges nations of the world to ignore this nation, do not interact with it and do not trade with it. We also urge Strator to end the slave trade and the practice of slavery.

To the Government of Orbath:

Strator has been attacked, embargoed, invaded and pretty much been beaten into the ground over its slave trade, do you really think the great leader would even consider your request for him to stop.

Quicksilver Speaks Out Against Strator

Page 1: New Theeb Echo

The formation of the Slave Trade Union by the old enemy of Freedom and Human Rights Strator today sparked one of the most influential and most respected men in Vetaka and to a lesser extent the world to break his usual vow of silence regarding world politics and speak out against a man whom was recently compared to Adolf Hitler for his Evil and Perversion. Chief Quicksilver in an address to the worlds press spoke of his disgust and his annoyance regarding Strator. The Chief urged the worlds Governments to launch immediate sanctions using both Diplomatic and Military means to stop and halt such an Evil man.

The Chief whom usually stays out of Politics confirmed he intended to use his Seat of Power within the Vetakan Senate to bring the issue to the Vetakan Government. The Chief whom has never actually sat in his chair within Senate confirmed that if Strator refused to bow down to mounting pressure then action would be taken. The Chief had this to say to our reporter this morning: "Strator is not an honourable man he does not deserve the honour of Time he either stands down with honour or the world will force him to bathed in the destruction of War".



Official Free Dominion of Vetaka Diplomatic Message:

To:<Open Communication>
From: Perry Cox, Vice President of the Free Dominion of Vetaka

Subject: Strator and The Slave Trade Union

Tired. Tired is the word to best describe the International Communities mood regarding you and your pointless pursuit of Slavery in this modern world. The Vetakan Dominion has stood strong since the dawn of the Dominion's existence against the vile, pointless and uneconomic Trade of Human Life. The Vetakan Government has done a lot to fight the battle against Slavery via Peaceful and Diplomatic Means.

I talk Strator about the world renowned and internationally recognized Theeb Accords founded at the Anti-Slave Conferences that you yourself attended. The Accords have grown and are their for you to make the choice to save your and help your people. The Accords stand ready to infuse Trillions into your nation all you must do is take the simple step of abolishing your Slave Trade. The world cares nothing for your politics all we care for is the basic human rights of your people that you continually oppress and abuse via forcing them into the Slave Trade.

I was just an intern within the Foreign Office under Scarlet Rogers when you attended the Anti Slave Summits all those years ago I learnt a lot from my mentor now I write to you as the Vice President of this nation. I urge you Strator halt this trade and disband this Union of Evil before such action is forced upon you. I will not threaten because you seem to get some sort of sexual pleasure out of it all I intend to do is warn you that your actions will lead to your downfall the Vetakan Dominion and the United Federation will not and shall not stand for this.

Yours

-Official Notice of Intent to Seize-

The influx of foreign nationals into the Republic throughout the ages has had profound effect upon her shape.

One of the most constant facets of the foreign influence is the absolute contempt held for Slave Trading internationally.

Four-hundred fifty years ago the only law in the republic which applied to Slavery beyond its abolishment was passed.

The Republic recognizes the absolute and irrevocable Right of every Skibereen citizen to seize the property of international Slave Trades.

That Right as being recognized and natural Right by the Government of the Republic is and shall be enforced by the Armed Forces of Skibereen.

Any object of value may be claimed as being legally forfeit if it be the property of International Slave Traders.

This explanation of Skibereenian law is to reasonably inform members states of the Strator Slave Trade Union that any Ship or Aircraft and its contents may be seized at will if encountered.

Should there be any questions please address them to the office of the Skibereenian Ministry of Free Commerce.

Good Luck in All endeavours

James O'Halloran
MINISTER of COMMERCE

In light of this, Alfegos has enacted a RED level rating protocol upon your nation. This means that:

1) You are under total trade embargo
2) Your citizens will be imprisoned, deported or shot if they attempt to enter our national airspace, waters or set foot upon our land.
3) Expect relations between us to be hostile at best.

You have also been reported to the free world alliance, who will also decide upon this abominable act.

Re: Nature of "slaves"

The Armed Republic would like to inquire as to whether the nations of the STU differentiate between "innocent" slaves who may be guilty of minor crimes, such as "sedition," and more hardend criminals who have either been sentenced to years of hard labor, possibly with out the rights of correspondance, for violent crimes, or whose lives are forfeit for crimes such as murder.

Republic of Canine Cavelry demands that the STU be abolished,if not,we will take
further action.

Global Message

Stoklomolvi requests that Strator cease its slave trade lest Strator be "beaten into ground over its slave trade" once more. The exchange of slaves was a primitive process akin to bartering items; slaves could be exchanged for any commodity, which is unacceptable. Slaves, no matter what you think of them, are classified as homo sapiens, which to the common man means human. Hence, all of your human slaves are still human, no matter what you think of them. Strator has been blacklisted and will have trade sanctions issued upon them by the Communist Dominion of Stoklomolvi. All ships owned by Strator that pass by Stoklomolvi will be eliminated, and all aircraft owned by Strator that pass by or through Stoklomolvi will be shot down without warning, regardless whether they are civilian or military.

KCT: YES SIR!

Slavery huh.

It is with great joy that I announce, as High General, that your little alliance is now under our eye. You don't yet pose enough of a threat to warrant your demise, but be wary. It is only a matter of time before you are crushed, as it has been with all nations and alliances that go public with their involvement in this horrible act.

The only thing you have to question is whether our hand will be forced on this matter. Death shall be swift indeed.

Have a nice day.

The Despotic Dictatorship of Despoticania migh consider joining STU... There's nothing wrong abou slavery, if the slaves are convicted criminals. Cheap labour for our corporations and punishment for our criminals in the same package... What could be better than that?

OCC:sorry for that.

To all nations which wish to join:

The actions of Strator within the STU are temporarily suspended, until the STU has enough members and force to defeat the opressor nations, Strator will withdraw his support of any nations which continue with governing their nations how they want, as is their right. My sincerest apologies.

To Stoklomolvi:

You surely speak for nations not your own, for alone, you would be crushed by our forces like a bug by an excessively obese person.

To Mer des ennuis:

The crimes which they are guilty of do not contain petty crimes, only things such as:

- Rioting against the true government chosen by the people (meaning Strator)

- Homocide or attempted homocide

- Repeated acts of violence

I feel that people guilty of such acts are a danger to society. In any other country they might serve 20 years to a life sentence, or be executed, here I give them a choice of working for their life, with a possiblility of being released on good behavior.

I suggest you change the name to Slave Traders For Unity (STFU).

OOC: So I kinda need an embassy with this guy for my RP to work, any objections if I kinda ask if I can have an embassy with him?

[OOC:

NB: I won't personally oppose.]

Official Government Response

So be it. If you suppose that your terribly equipped and small army can defeat the Imperial Guardsmen, then by all means, try. If you suppose that your malnourished and hating population can decimate the 110 million Stoklomolvi Military Police Force officers, then by all means, try. If you suppose that the will of the Stoklomolvi people will falter and you wish to attack, then by all means, try. Why would the free fight against the oppressors, you ask? To cleanse the oppressed, of course.

[OOC: My government is like that. It's conceited, it's "omnipresent and corrupt", etc.]

As of now, Strator has agreed to end slave trade in their nation. (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=543409)

[OOC:
TWSP: Lulz to that.
NB: I won't personally oppose.]

OOC": So they quit, well that sucked. I was gonna send in agents to buy slaves, send them to New Brittonia where they will be free citizens.

Plus, as a government, we have quite a bit of money, so we would have bought so many that the prices would go straight theough the roof

[OOC: Same here; 3 trillion in spendable NS dollars on anything. It's government waste. God bless government waste.]

The Grand Republic of One World Alliance officially condemns any involvement in the direct or indirect participation, facilitation, encouragement, or any other form of support for any activity that bares any resemblance of a human slave trade.

To World soviet party:

...................................................... :rolleyes:

To Stoklomolvi:

Terribly equiped, small, malnourished, where do you get these things from?
You obviously have been misinformed as to the power of my nation, I am a military leader, my nation is fully equipped for war. Every soldier in my army is trained since birth to be the best they can be, every man woman and child in my nation is trained to the standards of the average military trooper in most other nations. My nation is also larger than yours.

Official Allanean Response

It is strange, then, that you surrendered to us.

It is by order of His majesty, Mon Kye En, The Supreme Sovereign that this statement is printed:

It is the view of the Holy Empire of Mon Kye En that the individual beliefs and and right of national sovereignty should not be opposed on cultural basses, that may or may not be tainted by stereotypical negative from other nations portrayals. It is the view of this Holy Empire that a person who has come into slavery is no worse off than a person who is in extreme poverty. In fact, the fact that a person has become someone else's property give that person the incentive to care and protect them.


Addendum:

The Holy Empire of Mon Kye En hereby decrees that all persons who would be sent to terms of indefinite imprisonment are to be available for sale on the open market.

This decree shall still stand even when The Holy Empire of Mon Kye En has the facilities to imprison persons convicted of such crimes


OOC: There are no jails... there were some but they caught on fire... during the period of "civil unrest" prior to the assassination of the Precedent and General of the Army by Holy Emperor Mon Kye En, who used two swords to decapitate him on live television, not the one after that.

It is not Stoklomolvi I fear, but the numerous other forces which gathered against me.

Sent by highly encrypted telegram to Strator:

We here in the highest echelons of government wish to purchase, for labor and scientific breeding programme research, 100,000 good condition male slaves for $4,000,000 US. We would like, for an additional $1,000,000 usd that 10,000 of these specimens have muscle enhancements. We would request that this transaction is kept entirely quiet and secret. If any information about this transaction is leaked, we will refuse payment, and disavow any association with your nation. In addition, should information be leaked, any Stratorian within our borders will be summarily detained and executed.

The Vetakan Government on behalf of the United Federation of Allied Nations wishes to congratulate Strator for its decsion to temporaily cease its Slave Trading Activities. I as Vice President of the Vetakan Dominion urge Strator to make this temporay ceasation of the Slave Trade a pernament one. I also urge Strator to join and sign the Theeb Accords so that the nation of Strator may benifit from the great financial reward of the Strando Protocal.

Vetaka itself is willing to infuse a total of 5 Trillion USD immediately pending Strator signing the Theeb Accords. The Vetakan Government hopes this latest move in the right direction by Strator is one that will be the first of many right moves.

I congratulate Strator for his actions and wish him good luck in the future.

We may also loan up to 100 billion US$ worth of currency with very low interest (1.3 trillion government waste (my currency, wich is at a exhange rate of 1 to 1.38 US$)). Consider our offer, our motivation is the willingness to help nations that are oppressed by immoral and hypocrite governments; and money. Mostly money. :D
