In the deep blue waters of the Endopacific Ocean, lies the lush, subtropical island of Sondara. Covered in uniquely mixed forests of subtropical conifers, as well as palm trees, and with deposits of iron, bauxite, rubidium, corundum, cobalt, and other minerals, this island was ripe for colonization. As per a previous agreement between the United States of Zoingo and the Sovereign Kiravian Colonial Empire, the island was to be jointly settled by the two nations, and governed as a condominium.

Grant For Charter


The Zoingo Colonization Company would like to sponsor and help with the colonalization of this island. It seemes to be the perfect island to settle and make due of the resouces for the States back in Zoingo. Our merchants and stockbrokers have already funded part of the companies explot in its mission. We will need a list of supplies that we will need, and the basic requirements that will be layed out for this colony. And will the colony be named for the island, or will there be a new name for the colony?

The Central committee for Surailian expansion would like to offer its aid in the colonization of Zoingo.

if you accept our aid you will receive

25 Billion Dinara (30 Billion $)
full support from our Military and our UN Delegates
and we offer 3 Surailian Atomic Warheads (under the table)

If you do choose to accept our Aid our Chairman and Prime minister will contact you shortly to begin planning colonization.

Official Communique

The Zoingo Colonization Company is overwhelmed by your generous funding for our mission in establishing settlements on the isle of Sondara. We thank you in your funds and military establishments, and we feel that no nuclear weapons will be necessary but instead, we seek 3 ships, so we kindly ask for those in the place of the Atomic Warheads. In return, we will share part of the company's profits with you. If the Prime minister and your Chairman are on there way, we will be ready to go and await their arival.

Thank you for your interest. We will send a list of layout data and supplies shortly.

As for naming convention, the original intention was to name it the Sondara Colony, but you may call it whatever you wish.

The Brittonian observers are free to come. You need not worry for their sake, though. Under Section 12 of the Colonialism Act of the Imperial Senate, the natives are to be allowed to retain their land, human rights, self-governance, and culture, in cases such as these. Natives of the Kiravian colonies are always treated with honour, and are granted 5th-level Imperial Citizenship.

OOC: Sorry for the late reply, y'all. Surailia and NB can be in, but I'm trying to keep this closed.

The Surailian authority wishes to buy the north shore and commence our scientific testing in the surrounding seas

we also would like to inform you of a small immigration to the north shores.

the ships you asked for have been ordered:
we will send the first ship from our navy
one Darian Class Cruiser
2 Nazca class scout ships

her exelance prime minister Yekaterina Lihodiev and the most honorable Chairman have boarded the Royal Suralian Embasadorial Jet and will be there in within the hour

Ehm..Surailia, the island isn't for sale. Zoingo and I are colonizing it as a condominium. You can, as I mentioned in the telegrams, settle it under Kiro-Zoingan jurisdiction with Municipal autonomy.

NB, feel free to send your Red Crystal personnel whenever. I'll get a map up soon, showing the locations of the native villages.

Thank you for your interest. We will send a list of layout data and supplies shortly.

We understand, our ships are currently taking on willing colonists and supplies. The name is fine by us, and the investors in the company are eager for "this show to get on the road".

[Need to go to the Borough Waste Management place for a jiff. Be back in 15 minutes.}

well thats fine for now i am hoping to continue working on a military lab installation there and continue researching and testing our GENESIS Program

To the Zoingo Colonization Company:

Again, thank you for your interest. Here is a list of supplies that you will most likely need.

⃟Water. Our meteorologists have determined that the island's summers provide insufficient rainfall to sustain more than the existing population.

⃟Construction Equipment and Prefabs

⃟Ethynol or other fuel

⃟Agricultural Equipment & CHemicals

⃟Mining Equipment

⃟Vehicles

⃟Medical Supplies- The last expedition determined that Sondara is malaria-free. However, West Nile and other insect-borne illnesses are present in the area's rivers and wetlands.

occ: if it is a sub tropical island, then there must be more water.....not very well planned there.

Ic:

Our ships, The Baltic, Nordic, & Arklon, will be departing in a matter of days with 8 000 colonists, supplies, and our idea blueprints to the city. The ships will then depart and join up at the port of your choice, just please tell us were it is.

OOC: Note Summer. The rest of the year is wet, but the Island's topography allows for little of the year's rainfall to be retained during the summer, which is drier.

IC:

Congratulations on assembling your fleet. We've arranged for a rendevouz at the port of Wrighton, Nerthalia Colony. Coordinates are enclosed.

The Zoingoinan ships departed from Port Royal, crowded with hundreds of people on deck, with an uncertain future awating them, they set sail, wondering where they would go next in their treck across the ocean.

The three Kiravian vessels, the Appalachia, the Larimar, and the Type II colony ship Sondara, left Saar-Greysea, Xirya.

The ships pushed out into the Grey Sea, with the light of dawn giving the waters their eponymous colour. The Imperials aboard were mostly on deck, taking the last glances at the Kiravian Empire that they would see in along time.

BZZZZ.......alright all those with the id Tags starting with 1298 will be heading to the second aircraft and will be headed for New Essex and those starting with 099 will be colonizing the southern island and will board aircraft 12 scientists and military personel, 12,34 and 65 SciD's will board planes 5 through 7 for your various destinations LETS HURRY PEOPLE

20 minutes later the aircraft began launching and heading toward the south east .

Surailia, we have not agreed to the terms of lease yet.

The Baltic, Nordic, & Arklon , joined up with the Kiravian vessles and sailed alonside of them within a few hundred feet from them, as they would stay for the rest of the journey.

OOC: I'm gonna speed up time here.

IC:

THe six ships had been travelling for 3 weeks, when an olive-brown arc appeared on the horizon, like an eyebrow raised to ask "What took you so long?". It was the Northern Coast of Sondara, where the birth of a new land was to begin.

The Admiral of the Zoingnian fleet relayed over to the fleet leader

"We need to find a sutable harbour gound to land an unload supplies."

"Aye. At the head of the central bay, there is a safe natural harbour, and some makeshift dock facilities left behind by the British expedition."

occ:Cute kirav
TELEGRAM TO THE SONDORIAN COLONYS
FROM THE DESK OF CHAIRMAN GAULTIER
you may have heard i took initiative and have already detached a wave of scientists military personnel and a small amount of colonists.

you saw my proposed map I'm sure

now we just need to discuss the important fact of payment and how i can help in colonizing

"Cute"?

You posted a proposed map. It's Mine/Zoingo's land. You need to have us accept and get paid before you go landing people there. If you did that to BL or Stevid, your nation would be turned into radioctive cheese by now. Especially sending military. You need to be careful with that.

occ:fine well i have the 25 billion dinara and the three ships are in the works sooo yeah....

How much is 25 billion dinara in saars?

how much is saars in USD?

The ships docked at the makeshift docks, apparently, they were quite stable, and the colonists unloaded, and began to chop down trees, erect the tents, and began working on a town square. The chief architects went to a table that was set up, and looked over the Zoingonain plans for the city.

The Zoingan flag and the Imperial flag were posted aside each other at the edge of the cleared area.

Austran Pinefield, a Kiravian urabnographer, sat with the architects and engineers at the table, making suggestions and revisions to the plan.

"What about defencive walls for the city?" he asked?

OOC: Zoingo, we need to get our militaries in here later on. We'll work it out on the CN forum.

How many americans dollars is one Saar Worth

how much is saars in USD?

◊1 = $0.778

◊1 = $0.778

for the map positioned territory(s)
and the right to use project GENESIS

Seems agreeable. Only two points we must press:

We are not allowing settlement of the South Island. It is intended as a nature reserve, and only park rangers will be allowed to settle there.

What is GENESIS? We must know if we're to allow it to be used on our soil and water.

well chariman Gaultier belives that war and conquest is a verry human thing....but we keep killing things that need not be killed

in essence project genesis is a multi billion dollar project in finding less damaging way to kill every one ....and other small projects

some of the projects that will take place on the north shores water base will be:

Gamma ray PRJ
Neutron jamming
Nexus technology
and a confidential project that is under the same name as GENESIS

now i have a small fleet outside of the islands borders can we hurry up this decision?

The Kiravian Empire cannot allow a genocidal project to take place within our borders. If you must develop such a weapon, then annex a little atoll in the middle of nowhere to do it at. Testing here would endanger the Kiro-Zoingan colonists and the local wildlife.

ONLY one of them is actually a weapon : (Gamma ray PRJ)

Neutron jamming - is an anti nuke project
Nexus technology -is part of our space program
LEVEL 5CONFIDENTIAL

we are testing the island growing tecnology of project genesis
that is all we can tell you

Zoingo will not let any projects like this inhabit any island that is strictly for settlement, profit, and to expand culture and civilization into this side of the globe, therefore, we ask for the expedition to be sent back, before force by our navy is used.

the need for a secluded area to research is 100% necessary i can assure you that there will be no interruption in the way of life of the peoples of the island and the perfection of Neutron Jamming could eradicate the use of nuclear attacks all over the world--if it succeeds and it is at a safe distance from the shore that it would not hurt anyone if gone badly (with a failsafe of 100billion dinara)

We still would not want said opperation on the island with such catostrophic possibilites. Do you even know of what could happen if the Neutron Jamming goes wrong? The entire island would encounter a searies of fades and losses of the exotic life that exists on the island. In addition, this entire island would be deemed uninhabitable. So still no.

Your claim area on the northern island is also too large and would interfear with growth in the capital city, as well as crop producing.

Aye. This cannnot be permitted here. It counters the original intentions for settlement and the existance of life on the island completely.

Yup! :D And good timing, as well!

ooc: hey Kirav! Your back

I Understand do i get mining privileges?

http://s243.photobucket.com/albums/ff165/Adamus4414/?action=view&current=SondaraLanding.png
there is a re adapted map....is it acceptable?

the scientists have been moved to a new island and 200 military have been asked back to be re assigned,

the space program has been denied also?

Lets clarify for the last time:



New Boundaries

Rejected

Mining Privledges

Rejected

Getting off Island and leaving us alone

A small pivate jet marked with the insignia touched down at a small clearing at Sondara. Five people began to walk out, they waited for their envoy to arrive.

Pinefield, the Kiravian urbanographer, assisted the Zoingans in planning the city. Meanwhile, a group of warriors from the nearby village of Tangas watched from a distace. This was the second time that the strange Kiravian tribe had visited the island. And now they had brought another tribe with them? Possibly they were like the Haylay tribe from the Old Lands, that conquered and assimilated the smaller tribes, forcing them to flee to this island, Saonar'a. The newcomers must be watched.

bump :)

ooc: Yay! this is semi popular again! :p

ic:

The ships were finished unloading, and with them, a small detachment of armed soilders, they were here to strictly protect the colony, and to not venture out into the unknown. The basework of a couple citizen's houses was coming up out of the ground, and the main avenue of the city was spread with cobblestone provided from the ships. From there, they would sail to Martaniqua to pick up crop seeds that were found sutable for the island.

The planners at the table agreed with Pinefield on the defensive issues.

"Now, as soon as the ship from Martaniqua returns, we can set up crops to start growing, and we will need some sort of govenor building to oversea the colony." one of them suggested.

"Certainly. Where in the city do you feel that it should be positioned?"

"Certainly. Where in the city do you feel that it should be positioned?"

"Probably not in the middle of the city as it is not the wisest choice because we have to plan for future development, maybe ontop of a nearby hill or on the beach at the projected outskirts of the capital...."

"Probably not in the middle of the city as it is not the wisest choice because we have to plan for future development, maybe ontop of a nearby hill or on the beach at the projected outskirts of the capital...."

"Sounds good," he said, pulling out a topographic map of the area. "There is a suitable hill over here," he pointed at a group of concentric rings on the map, "I think that the hill structur is stable enough."

Meanwhile, the pre-planned areas of the city went up around the planners. Small houses, paths, storage buildings, and many tents were erected.

"Okay, and then after that, we may have to build up on the harbor, oh and set up some type of colonial legislature."

"Okay, and then after that, we may have to build up on the harbor, oh and set up some type of colonial legislature."

"Aye. Well, I'll get a team started to start with the harbour design. Politics isn't exactly by bailiwick."

A man behind him said, "But it is mine. I'm trying to organise a meeting of all of the colonists tonight, so that a sort of consitution can be worked out. We need all to attend."

"And we also are very good in colonial politics, and it only seems fair that all of the colonists come to the meeting, but we have two things to overcome.

1. Where would the meeting take place
2. How many colonists are currently on these shores? "

"And we also are very good in colonial politics, and it only seems fair that all of the colonists come to the meeting, but we have two things to overcome.

1. Where would the meeting take place
2. How many colonists are currently on these shores? "

"Currently, there are only 4,300 Kiravians here. The meeting would take place by the docks, to keep people away from the construction."

"Quite so, but there are also 7,500 of us, not to mention those wanting to claim land along the shores back home at the Zoingonian Colonization Company."

"Quite so, but there are also 7,500 of us, not to mention those wanting to claim land along the shores back home at the Zoingonian Colonization Company."

"Aye," he remarked, "That indeed will be an issue that must be discussed at the meeting. There are many in Kirav and the major colonies that are planning on getting homesteads in the interior, and many more waiting for jobs and housing to be created in cities."

"Aye," he remarked, "That indeed will be an issue that must be discussed at the meeting. There are many in Kirav and the major colonies that are planning on getting homesteads in the interior, and many more waiting for jobs and housing to be created in cities."

"That might also needs to be adressed...." the planner said.

Then, one of the ships blew its harbor whitsle, and departed.

"Ahh...the Nordic, she is sailing back to Martainiqua, quite a sucessfull ship, turns out that people now-a-days love sailing, especially on historic liners." one of the other planners said.

The Ship departed, leaving those on the island..... (http://http://www.fortunecity.com/lavender/stroheim/163/titanic3d3.jpg)

"Aye. I quite like it myself. In fact, I planned bases for the Imperial Navy once," said Pinefield.

The man behind him said gruffly, "Pardon me for not introducing myself. M'name's Karl Isletford, and I'm the Imperial government's organiser here."
