A Call to Arms : Dr Merkwudigliebe's proposal to all capitalist nations.

Dr Merkwurdigliebe

OPEN LETTER FROM DR MERKWURDIGLIEBE TO ALL NATIONS OF THE FREE WORLD

Free men and women of the capitalist world. Today is an age of economical and political progress. Everywhere, democracy and capitalism is spreading, bringing light to the most unfortunate in the world. A study conducted by the Comitee of the Capitalist Census Corporation has shown that in less than 20 years, according to current trends and growth rates, more than 50% of the world's people will celebrate christmas. But even today, the threat of barbarianism and abject poverty casts its shadow across the globe. It is embodied by our enemy, the enemy of freedom and equality, the one that has resisted all attempts for rational negociation and refuses to understand the error of its ways. Yes, I am talking about communism.

The past has taught us never to trust a communist state. Our attempts to bring democracy and peace to communist countries have all been met with resistance by radical fringe groups which impose their will on the weak and uneducated. Had it not been for one man, the world would today be a communist wreck, ravaged by welfare and women's rights movements. Had it not been for this one man, the capitalist world's attempts to appease communism will just have brought the same outcome as those made to appease nazism. This man, Jack D. Ripper, died in the name of his beliefs, died from the hands of his kin and brethren, becoming a martyr to save those that refused to heed his warning. But his actions were not in vain. Our underground capitalist nation is his soulchild, and we will keep carrying the torch, unremitting in our quest against the foulness of communism, staunchly protecting the purity of our essence.

This is a call to all nations of the free world. All of our capitalist brothers that have seen the truth and understand the intrisic value of free market and open trade. Today is the day we start making a stand. Today is the day communists dictators all over the world start shaking in fear. Today is the day when we unite ! Capitalists ! Heed our call and join us ! What our nation is proposing today is a military and economical alliance that will allow us to make the virus of communism disappear forever. May all nations that value freedom and peace join us to form the ultimate stand against totalitarianism !

Dr. Merkwurdigliebe, Leador.

End of letter

This is our Leador's message to the nations of the free world. If you wish to join us in our fight against these dirty commies, all you need to do is get in contact with me, General Buck Turgidson, Dr. Merkwurdigliebe's Ministor of Offence, to arrange terms. Our army is well funded and trained, and our economy strong. We are ready to accept all forms of cooperation as long as we have some interest in it and that it participates to the fight against communism. Our military capacity has been optimized in preparation for this, and our treasury is filled to the rim with fresh females, so be assured that your trust in us will not be misplaced.

General Buck Turgidson, Ministor of Offence

Addenda:
If you wish to form an embassy in our nation, please contact Deputy Ministor Merkin Muffley of Foreign Affairs.

communism is a sound and practical political establishment with no drawbacks and can be presumed to be the saving grace of humanity. in theory.

practically however the world has yet to see a true communist establishment, the chinese came closest due most in part to thier fundamental buddist beliefs.

That is what this is about, belief. it is inhumane and highly unrecommended to force your ideals upon another, capitalist to communist to capitalist. you cannot force a person to change, sure they will appear to accept your decree, but they will not believe it, which is important for proper conduct.

Let sleeping dragons lie. history has shown that neither communism or capitalism can simply walk into a country and change its ideals by force (the munich rebellion and vietnam war respectively)

General Buck Turdginson, Dr. Merkwurdigliebe's Ministor of Offence, will only recieve communications endorsed and signed by a national official or head of state. Unofficial declarations of support for communism and appeasement will not be recognized as worthy of any serious attention.

Hell yeah, you godless commie, we have learned how to cherish the bomb and are completely unafraid of using it as if it was a conventional weapon. If this was a test of our resolve, then here is our answer : bring it on.

While we may agree with you that such a manner of forcing such systems can frequently backfire, we must protest certain points of yours which we believe to be misinterpretations. The modern Chinese establishment has never been fundamentally Buddhist, nor were they truly closer to "ideal communism" than were the Soviets. Also, the Vietnam conflict's failure was not due to the inability of the United States to "impose their system" on the Vietnamese due to a flaw in the nature of imposing, but a military and political failure due to the failure of some leaders, particularly Johnson, and the rise of, not unrelated, domestic issues (such as active sedition).

We thank you for the support you show us and deeply respect your staunch rejection of communist dogma. However, we are disappointed to see that you apparently do not understand the magnitude of the threat of communist infiltration. We have given this call because of the urgency of the situation. Every day, the communist block gets stronger, and the ideals of capitalism are being defiled in countries we don't even know the name of. As our dear predecessor, General Jack D. Ripper, martyr to our cause, would say it :

"We can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion, and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids."

Time has come to act, and we can either all stand strongly as an unified alliance of capitalist countries, are all fall into the dark age of communism. What will you chose ?

FROM THE OFFICE OF THE MINISTER OF FOREGIN AFFAIRS
MR. LARRY WILLIAMS
While the Supreme Emperor cannot officially send a message to you due to time constraints with several other events going on, he has asked me to send you a message.

We feel that your stance on attempting to 'force' the ideals of Capitalism on other nations is a bit disturbing. The Shazbotdom Empire itself is not full blown Communism, but we do adhere to some of the basic principles of it, thus us having the label of 'Socialist'. And might I add that this is not because of a 'Tyrannical Dictator', but it is the will of the people. In the last election, we saw the re-election of Mr. George A. Loak as the Supreme Emperor. Although with how our current Constitution is setup, this will be his second and last term as Supreme Emperor.

Therefore as we have Elections, we are considered Democratic Socialists in the eyes of the United Nations, even though our current category is 'Inoffensive Centrist Democracy'.

We must also state that if you attempt to drop pamphlets upon our nation and attempting to force your ideals upon our nation, it will be seen as a violation of our sovereignty. These planes would be intercepted with aircraft of the Shazbotdom Marine Corps, forced to land, then confiscated and your people will be deported back to their homeland.

That is how our laws are setup and we expect you to respect our laws.

This is to inform you that the President of Philippiniada, personally got the letter you have sent in "every nation in the world", he asked me to write a formal letter regarding our stand here in this issue.



The President describes your letter as "disturbing", and "just another propaganda rubbish", and will only bring enemies to your national borders, but we share views about communism, communism is banned from our country, it will not be tolerated, and it must not be allowed militarizing, as commies will attempt to conquer territories for their own good, that, is one subject we agree on Doctor, but we never loved capitalism, in fact, capitalist people are executed here on our nation, so if your planes attempted to drop pamphlets on our cities, or if it is attempting to enter our air space, that will be seen as an attempt to 'invade' our country, thereby, that plane will be intercepted by our Air Force, its pilots and crew will be regarded as 'POW's' and automatically, a state of war between your state and the Philippiniada will be declared as per order by the President


We hope the contents of this letter is clear to you, and that you will not commit any foolish attempts to 'invade' the borders of our great empire,

DOFA,

It seems that your President is completely delusional. This letter is not propaganda. It is not directed at the masses. It has been written for the ruling elite that understands the dangers of communism and knows what path to chose for its own people. I do not understand where you have taken the notion that we might parachute pamphlets on you towns, it is a completely preposterous idea and any attempt, as has already been said, to injure any member of our airforce will be met by the full extent of our forces. What we are doing here is not proposing a war, but economical and technological exchanges between capitalist countries with the destruction of communism as the final goal in mind.

Sincerely, Gen. Turdginson, Ministor of Offense.

The new air force invention by my nation:

1. It can only go into invading regions because of its effects.

2. Has been dubbed the Firequake Bomb, because when it hits, it sends shockwaves into the air, that ignite the oxygen surrounding the bomb for a 8-kilometer radius, thus setting everythnig on fire. It literally vaporizes buildings within 3 kilometers of the epicentre, because the quake is so hot.

3. The heat from the explosion at the epicentre is what ignites the surrounding oxygen, thus setting everything on fire, and it ignites the oxygebn in the shockwave from the explosion, making it look like an expanding ring of fire.

4. Once the fire ring has subsided, it leaves a 16-km or 10 mile diameter of utterly destroyed material, and burining wreckage.

%. As a result, it is great for igniting over forests tghat surround heavily populated areas, or igniting the cities themselves.

for the war in communism, I am willing to send this bomb to your aid.

Re: “A Call to Arms”

Honoured sirs,

The Imperial Government of Tagmatium finds your bombastic stance on the spreading of your ideals rather offensive. What works for some doesn’t necessarily work for others, especially if those ideals are forced upon others with the force of arms, which appears to be what you are planning. The fact that you appear to have a military officer as a minister, coupled with your threatening and grandiloquent style, suggests that your nation isn’t a shining beacon of democracy and freedom as you pretend. One expects this kind of rhetoric from a mere tin pot dictatorship attempting to divert attention away from itself, not a civilised nation.

There, the Greater Holy Empire decides to snub your call to arms, especially since the Socialist system has been serving the Greater Holy Empire well for the last two decades. However, in the interests of international relations, the Imperial Government has decided to offer an exchange of embassies, if you are willing to accept.

Interesting piece of information. Although you must note that I DID NOT state that any aircraft from the Shazbotdom Empire would enter your nation by any means. I stated that if YOUR aircraft are caught within the boundries of the Shazbotdom Empire or any of her Colonies that it would be forced down, confiscated and those who are piloting and crewing the aircraft would be deported back to your nation. I suggest that you take up some lessions in reading my messages.

Also, threatening the use of WMD's (Biological, Chemcial and Nuclear Alike) is seen as a direct threat to the Shazbotdom Empire. You are now seen as a Rogue State due to the fact that you threatened to use WMD's as a first strike option. Please also note that the Shazbotdom Empire is protected by a Missile Defence Shield and your national budget is so low that even if you did have one WMD, launching that would put your nation into debt and it would be shot down by the Shazbotdom Empire anyways, so it would be a waste of your taxpayers money.

Hitlers Last Dream
12-12-2007, 23:40
TO ALL NATIONS

I would like to commend Dr. Merkwudigliebe for his staunch opposition of Communism, and his understanding of the threat we all face. The Communist is one of the many vermin that plague our Earth. The universalists, the idealists, the Utopians all aim too high. They give promises of an unattainable paradise, and by doing so they deceive mankind. Whatever label they wear, whether they call themselves Christians, Communists, humanitarians, whether they are merely sincere but stupid or wire-pullers and cynics, they are all makers of slaves.

Dr. Merkwudigliebe seems to understand the Communist threat, but I question the strength of his commitment to eradicating it. The War with Communism is inevitable. The question we have to answer is, when the time comes who will wage it? Many have spoken out against Communism, but they still stand by the Marxist and protect him, claiming that it is in the interest of peace that we let this wretched scum flourish and procreate. People want peace, but they are too afraid to take the necessary action to achieve it. I want the people to be peace-loving, but also to be courageous. I want war. To me all means will be right. My motto is not "Don't, whatever you do, annoy the enemy." My motto is "Destroy him by all and any means." I am the one who will wage the war!

Sieg Heil!

A brief memo arrived, in hard copy format, in the...country's foreign affairs office.

While I certainly support the destruction of the vileness that the Reds represent, I feel that declaring such an agenda so openly is not particularly conducive to continued operations. More subtle means are often required to eliminate undesirables, as one may surmise from the rather vehement if misguided and nonsensical replies your office must have received by now.
+++It is the preference of the Jeunese government to take a less overt role in stamping out the Marxist-Leninist threat, but if your government should like to continue being bold, it will need strong allies. While Jeuna is not a signatory, I recommend joining "ACID": the Anti-Communist Initiative for Defence, headed by Questers, ostensibly one of the most able players in military posturing.

" is our Imperial Army ready for a war? " asked the president



" our military is ranked 6th in terms of the quantity of the Standing army sir, the Imperial Army recruitment has doubled from the last year, exact estimates sir is 100.000 comissioned officers and 540.000 conscripts aged 16-40 yrs old, our battletanks are produced at 30 units per month,"

We believe that your flawed spelling of our Leador's name in an official communiqué was a deliberate attempt at insulting him, and we therefore ask that the leader of your nation personally apologize to ours. We also demand that you immediately stop all of your military preparations, which have not escaped the eyes of our spy satellites. Any act of agression directed against our country will be answered by all out war and the eventual annexation of your nation.

TO ALL NATIONS

Why can't we get along? The "vile" of communism? Who cares? If us communist nations are still intact, that says enough about it! Both systems have weakness and assets, both systems can fall! It should not be the political system of a nation that counts, but the nation itself! If a communist nation were point a bunch of nukes at random nations, screamin "BLOOD!!!", and putting its people in slavery, that would be bad, but that is the mere extreme. Many communist nations treat their people perfectly fine. It is not the business of a nation to critisize an entire system of government, which is more like assigning a sterotype.

Subject: Freedom of choosing an economic system

Dr. Merkwurdigliebe, we are proud to affirm that our mixed economy of communism and mutualist free market is a result of a referendum which was held in the birth of our nation where 80% voted for it, while only 5% wished for a capitalist economy, 8% wanted full mutualism and 7% full communism. Also we must inform you that 2 years ago some anarcho-capitalists pulled a referendum to turn our economy into capitalism, and most voted against it. Also note that the level of hypocrisy your claims emanate is not small, because what you claim to be freedom is nothing but futile rhetoric, and claiming communist nations live at more poverty than capitalist ones is something most of us reacted with laughters. I ask you: Is "freedom" to choose a boss who will control you almost as if you were his slave for at least eight hours? Is "freedom" to be forced to get whatever job the holy Invisible Hand has to offer rather than what one truly has potential to do? Is "freedom" to be condemned to poverty, manual labor and ignorance for a whole life and probably for all your future heirs because of lacking financial resources to be taught all levels of education to achieve full potential? And finally: is "freedom" to be forced to conform to a single economic system which was chosen by a small elite and have no way to attempt changing it besides violent revolution?

It was Friday morning, Mae Jacqui and Matthew Dabling both stormed into the Minister-Prime's office, paperwork in hand.

"Mae, Matthew. I assume this is to do with that Doctor fellow? Take a seat." Malk Rutten was already seated; the presence of both Secretary of State obviously came to little surprise.

"Intelligence shows that a small army has begun to form in the State of Philippiniada. It could be purely for show, a threat of sorts but tensions are said to be growing between both involved leaders. I sugge-" Mae Jacqui, Secretary of Foreign Affairs was cut abruptly short by Matthew Dabling, Secretary of Defence.

"I suggest we put all units on alert, I wouldn't mobilize anything but sending a few destroyers across the border as if on a training exercise might ward off any unwanted visitors - the Fallible 2 and 5 (the Fallacious Navy flagship destroyer class) - are armed and ready to patrol, all we need is your go." Matthew paused, Mae had begun sorting through documents before placing various satellite images onto the desk.

"Before you send any orders Minister-Prime I think it's important that you look at the figures. If we are to mobilize and are considered a threat by either State we'd most likely be in over our heads." Mae was legitimately concerned, as a Foreign Affairs consultant it was her job.

"Thank you. Mr. Dabling you have your go - I want both ships out in the open water by noon. Put all regiments on alert. We aren't going to war, but precautions are necessary Mae. Merkwurdigliebe as a State have proven themselves stubborn and as a Government we will not allow them to influence our land. As for Philippiniada, if one of his missiles so much as heads through our airspace I want it shot down." Rutten stood up, turned and peered through his window. "Go."

OPEN LETTER FROM DR MERKWURDIGLIEBE TO ALL NATIONS OF THE FREE WORLD

Free men and women of the capitalist world. Today is an age of economical and political progress. Everywhere, democracy and capitalism is spreading, bringing light to the most unfortunate in the world. A study conducted by the Comitee of the Capitalist Census Corporation has shown that in less than 20 years, according to current trends and growth rates, more than 50% of the world's people will celebrate christmas. But even today, the threat of barbarianism and abject poverty casts its shadow across the globe. It is embodied by our enemy, the enemy of freedom and equality, the one that has resisted all attempts for rational negociation and refuses to understand the error of its ways. Yes, I am talking about communism.

The past has taught us never to trust a communist state. Our attempts to bring democracy and peace to communist countries have all been met with resistance by radical fringe groups which impose their will on the weak and uneducated. Had it not been for one man, the world would today be a communist wreck, ravaged by welfare and women's rights movements. Had it not been for this one man, the capitalist world's attempts to appease communism will just have brought the same outcome as those made to appease nazism. This man, Jack D. Ripper, died in the name of his beliefs, died from the hands of his kin and brethren, becoming a martyr to save those that refused to heed his warning. But his actions were not in vain. Our underground capitalist nation is his soulchild, and we will keep carrying the torch, unremitting in our quest against the foulness of communism, staunchly protecting the purity of our essence.

This is a call to all nations of the free world. All of our capitalist brothers that have seen the truth and understand the intrisic value of free market and open trade. Today is the day we start making a stand. Today is the day communists dictators all over the world start shaking in fear. Today is the day when we unite ! Capitalists ! Heed our call and join us ! What our nation is proposing today is a military and economical alliance that will allow us to make the virus of communism disappear forever. May all nations that value freedom and peace join us to form the ultimate stand against totalitarianism !

Dr. Merkwurdigliebe, Leador.

End of letter

This is our Leador's message to the nations of the free world. If you wish to join us in our fight against these dirty commies, all you need to do is get in contact with me, General Buck Turgidson, Dr. Merkwurdigliebe's Ministor of Offence, to arrange terms. Our army is well funded and trained, and our economy strong. We are ready to accept all forms of cooperation as long as we have some interest in it and that it participates to the fight against communism. Our military capacity has been optimized in preparation for this, and our treasury is filled to the rim with fresh females, so be assured that your trust in us will not be misplaced.

In Barronia, we have done nothing but make to prevent poverty through the implementation of the state's resources - and to great effect. Our literacy rate is 100%. Our peoples enjoy some of the most fruitful lives available - working for the good of each other and the state. Who needs fatcats running the show and pulling strings behind the government, encouraging corruption and malcontent? Who needs a percentage of the populace living in abject poverty - preventable poverty, at that?

OPEN LETTER FROM DR MERKWURDIGLIEBE TO ALL NATIONS OF THE FREE WORLD

Free men and women of the capitalist world. Today is an age of economical and political progress. Everywhere, democracy and capitalism is spreading, bringing light to the most unfortunate in the world.

It is embodied by our enemy, the enemy of freedom and equality, the one that has resisted all attempts for rational negociation and refuses to understand the error of its ways. Yes, I am talking about communism.

The people of Viite agree with your democratic beliefs, considering the fact that our nation is democratic itself. Furthermore, we agree that the effectiveness of a Democracy has been proven many times over. However, we disagree with your statement concerning Communism, which labels this form of government with the statement, "the threat of barbarianism and abject poverty casts its shadow across the globe."

The past has taught us never to trust a communist state. Our attempts to bring democracy and peace to communist countries have all been met with resistance by radical fringe groups which impose their will on the weak and uneducated. Had it not been for one man, the world would today be a communist wreck, ravaged by welfare and women's rights movements.

Our underground capitalist nation is his soulchild, and we will keep carrying the torch, unremitting in our quest against the foulness of communism, staunchly protecting the purity of our essence.

The statement, "The past has taught us never to trust a communist state," may be true. HOWEVER, the present is also teaching us that communist countries can have an effective and productive influence in our world.

This is a call to all nations of the free world. All of our capitalist brothers that have seen the truth and understand the intrisic value of free market and open trade. Today is the day we start making a stand. Today is the day communists dictators all over the world start shaking in fear. Today is the day when we unite ! Capitalists ! Heed our call and join us !

Communist conspiracy? You are truly mad, doctor. Do you believe that every nation that is even a bit communist is part of a giant organization? Again, both have assets and failures. Capitalism causes content, but it creates "fatcats", corrupt government, and poverty fairly quickly. Socialism has none of that, but a single, tyrannical dictator can ruin it all, and human nature itself is greedy.

Why are you so ready to split the world into communism and capitalist? There are no true differences in the end. Humans are humans. Rulers are rulers. Nations are nations. You do realize every nation is soverign, correct? Communist nations rule themselves like any other nation, not in some giant conspiracy.

"Quorum, then." And another resolution of little merit passes in the heart of democracy, the Soviet steps sunk beneath The Island on Burha Talab, mighty Raipur's shining lake. Dr Merkwudigliebe's similarly named, "leador" [sic] and the pitiful, "Offence" Ministry's General Buck Turgidson were to be classified as, "dangerously under-educated persons holding political office or influence in a lesser developed nation" and the nation state they represented was to be ridiculed and taunted until it just lost the will to persist in its dank pit of ignorance and took the honourable way out of its angry short-man-syndrome.

At the same time, representatives of the small and relatively stagnant capitalist state were invited to tour the Indian sub-continent to witness Igovian-Communist direct democracy and see the multiverse's 192nd fastest-growing economy in all of its anti-capitalist glory.

Dr Merkwurdigliebe's government is warned against further provocations and reminded, by comrade General Adiatorix, that, "...we have more rifles than you have citizens, more warplanes than you have rifles... and more freedom than you conservatives have imagination!"

Privately, many Soviet citizens have attempted to contact people and organisations in the backwards nation to alert them to the relative deprivations of their society and the suicidal aggressions of their autocratic government, and have attempted to make them understand the difference between, "Bolshevist traitors and genuine Communists."

Ours is not a communist nation, although we have recently taken measures to ensure that no man (or woman) is disadvantaged by anything so mundane as an accident of birth or gender. Is such equality a sign of encroaching communism, or is it merely good sense?

Before we place our support at your disposal, we will most certainly require that you define your rather generalised terms, rather than the rhetoric which you seem to favour. After all, once the fluff is removed from the message, all that remains is "Communists are bad. Let's get them." War is a serious matter, sir. We need more than that. Much more.

Until such definitive reasoning has been supplied, we must regretfully remain free of this conflict - but rest assured that if either side offers us threat, we will respond in force and with all the fury at our disposal.

The Star Chamber, Ackmanistan

Night had fallen; the communique had long since been dispatched. Within the room, the lights had dimmed. The Speaker tapped his keyboard and the screen folded down into the long table.

"What is your opinion of their potential response?"

One man answered, his voice hard and flat. "Forty percent chance that they will try to convince us, forty that they will ignore us. After all, we're less than two-thirds their size."

"And the other twenty percent?"

"That they decide we're a threat because we aren't grovelling to their cause."

"Precautions?"

Across the table, a woman spoke up. "Under way. Set in motion when the first letter came in. If they start to lean on us, we inform them that there are six infiltration teams in country already, one per city. They get to guess which cities."

An eyebrow raised in the dimness. "Only six?"

A smile in return. "That we'll tell them about."

"And if they attack anyway?"

The voice was grim. "One Ackmanistan citizen dies, one suitcase nuke goes up. We have one per team. How many cities are they willing to lose?"

"That's up to them."

"Won't they complain about use of nuclear weapons?"

"Already threatened to use them."

"Internal national security?"

A snort of disdain. "Our teams practice against our security. We're talking Swiss cheese here, sir."

A nod. "Good. Get it done."

We understand that you fear for your security, but attempting to infiltrate our cities is not the solution. We have already captured a certain number of your agents, and confiscated their weapons. We are ready to send them back to your nation unharmed on the condition that your position stays neutral and that you recall your other agents. Any other agent discovered inside our borders will be tried and executed.

As you have not offered any clarification of your rhetoric into plain language, we have regretfully decided that you are waging a variant of jihad rather than a logically reasoned out position of war. As such, we are obliged to inform you that we will not be offering any aid or comfort to you or your allies in any resulting conflict.

Regarding any alleged agents of this nation which may or may not have been captured within your borders; we will receive these people, so as to repatriate them to wherever they need to go, but we deny any responsibility for sending them into your country.

News Item



King Johnrey Baliwas has been an guest of honor in an summit of the Imperial Army of the Philippiniada, which included talks about further increasing of the Military and Defense Budgets, which hitted an all time high since the dispute of Dr. Merkwurdigliebe Nations and the Empire of the Philippiniada,

"No cause for alarm" said General Taniada, Imperial Defense Coordinator of the Empire, "This is just an immediate coincindence as we long planned at asking for an increase of the Empire's Defense and Military budget", General Anselmo demonstrated it's armies newly acquired tactics, strategies, and the famed "Imperial Crusader Mark II Tank", which is made from borrowed technologies of its strongest ally, The Visayan Federation, its production has increased tenfold in the past months and estimates the Crusader Tank reserves of the Imperial Army to be at least 100.000-150,000 at the storage facilities scattered around The Philippiniada,

His Majesty commented about Dr Merkwurdigliebe's nation as to be a "threat" to the security of not only to the Empire, but to the World, more threat than even the communist itself that the Doctor has considered to be a wreck, His Majesty also declares that after this experience, the Anti-Communism Law in the Empire will be officially outlawed, the reason will be Dr Merkwurdigliebe, because the Emperor said that after meeting the Doctor/Dictator, he sees that there are worst things to be banned than the communist,


A message at the official communique of the Empire from the doctor said that the previous message of our Defense Coordinator will be considered as a "declaration of war", no further communications will be further established and the denounciation of that message to the Empire will only be the way to improve ties with the said government,

(http://sunsetrpg.com/economystatistics.php?nation=dr+merkwurdigliebe)
I stick by my interpretation.
Oh and... "jihad" ? Since when am I Islamic ?


That you would deny that your own agents were sent by your nation into ours is very disappointing. We will keep them in custody as a safety measure against your state. They will be liberated if all of your infiltrated forces are recalled, and executed if your nation makes any attempt at injuring ours.

The Hon. Ferdinand Aafd, Dr. Merkwurdigliebe's Secretary of State.

ooc: got any maps of your nation?, or description?
Ah... no I don't. But it's mostly underground with only military bases over the surface. Is there any way I can see a map or a description of yours ?
the Crusader Tank reserves of the Imperial Army to be at least 100.000-150,000

Oh, and I understand that waving the numbers is all well and good, but by the front page, my law & order budget seems to be more efficiently spent than yours, given that I have no crime, whereas your crime problem is 'serious'. If you have crime running rampant in your society, it's a lot harder to spot enemy agents...]

Communique from the Table of the Star Chamber, Ackmanistan, to Dr Merkwurdigliebe:

You offer a logical inconsistency. If we did have agents infiltrated into your nation, how would you know when we had them all pulled out? You would not; therefore, no matter the origin of the so-called agents you are holding, you are issuing yourselves the license to hold them incommunicado forever.

Furthermore, by stating that we must pull out any agents allegedly within your country, you accuse us of lying. Which means that you do not trust our word, and thus intend to keep those people indefinitely, or execute them at your whim, no matter what we do or say.

We have offered to take said alleged agents off your hands so that they may be returned to their country of origin, but we see now that this was a wasted offer and that you intended to keep them prisoner no matter what happened.

Play your games if you must, but do not waste our time. And understand this: if one citizen of Ackmanistan is harmed by your aggressive stance, then there will be payment in blood.

Finally:
We do not believe that Communism is the ideal form of government, but it is possible for a Communist government to rule fairly and well, and thus it is not our business whether there are communists out there or not. And until we are presented with firm reasoning to the contrary, that is the stance we will take.

Oh please don't try and defend your blatantly incorrect use of the word jihad, just accept the fact that you slipped up.
And about the counterintelligence issue :
1. Your beloved "front page" says that your low crime rates are due to "progressive social policies", I don't see how that means your spies are any good.
2. You don't even know what kind of crime is "rampant" in my society. It could be that 50% of my population gets pulled over every day for drunk driving, which really wouldn't say much about our counterintelligence abilities.
3. And how does crime make it harder to find infiltrated agents ? Please develop.
4. And your national safety might not be as good as you think. "Crime is totally unknown"... but at the same time http://sunsetrpg.com/economystatistics.php?nation=ackmanistan tells me you have a black market problem... maybe crime is more of a problem then you think and you just dont know about it :p
5. My nation is a highly stratified underground police state. as you would know if you understood the reference. Try and infiltrate that.
So no, I won't rp as if you had multiple WMDs inside my nation. Before you rp something that involves physical influence on another nation, at least try to contact the other player to reach an agreement about it.

To All : I already said so IC, but apparently some need a reminder : I have received far more than enough carbon-copies of the same indignated, "tolerate or be destroyed" message from moderate undecided centrists that believe that the fact that their nation model works on nationstates is ultimate proof that it would work IRL, so I'm just ignoring them all. Post some more if you really want to, but you'll get nothing from me, and all you will managed to do is look like an idiot. thankyou.

Oh and enough of these messages that imply that I threatened anyone. Except if I say otherwise, or if you are a good rper that understands that military posturing does not have to be about actual war, than I do not care about you and don't even want to hear about your army, or your economy, or your political system. WhyTF would I be interested in that ? Before you post, please think for a half a second to understand if it will bring an interesting rp or if you are just trying to give your unwanted opinion.

Ey well I'd like to rp but all I got since my last post is more substance for this rant that has been building up for a while. Now i'm just waiting for Fallacious to give his OK to the transfer of my ambassador (i think we could develop this into a diplomacy and espionnage rp if you want to) and if you really want to keep going with this war, The Philippiniada, so be it, it will give me a background for my rp with Fallacious. Just send me a telegram or post here about what you want this war to look like (keep in mind your chances of victory are slim)

It is with open arms we welcome Ambassador Kennan. His bodyguards, himself and aides are to be accommodated in the town of Unager. It is perhaps important to note that Unager is situated by the beach, it will be a more than fitting place to allow your ambassador to take in the finer aspects of Fallacious.

We have no doubt that Ambassador Kennan will more than enjoy his stay.

Dear Deputy Ministor [sic] Merkin Muffley,

On behalf of His Majesty King George IV of the Crown Commonwealth of Praetonia, I extend warmest greetings to yourself and your country.

Your economic stance is admirable and I am sure that your people are greatly pleased to have the opportunity to live in a free and prosperous country. Although the destruction of the largely irrelevent peripheral community of communist states is not currently thought to be a wise manner in which to spend precious tax-payers' money in this country, it is nonetheless a goal which His Majesty supports wholeheartedly, along with the destruction of all other forms of tyranny, oppression and poverty worldwide.

Given your present diplomatic state and the controversy your statements against collectivist economics have aroused, His Majesty feels that it would be greatly beneficial to your country to gain the friendship of established and respected powers. Your country has already had contact with His Majesty's Georgian League ally Clandonia, and His Majesty would like to extend an offer of embassy exchange, free trade and free movement between our two Realms. His Majesty is confident that, in the spirit of true laissez-faire, this agreement will be most welcome to you.

In the meantime, His Majesty is willing to offer your country a degree of protection from potential foreign aggression in the shape of a destroyer squadron of the Imperial Praetonian Navy to visit your country on a goodwill tour. In time, His Majesty's Government feels that His Majesty may be able to offer your country a Guarantee of Sovereignty, which would secure your borders against the multitude of poor and weak communist states which currently threaten to assault them.

In a spirit of true friendship, I hope that good fortune will attend you until we can converse again.

I beg to remain, Sir, your most humble and obedient servant,

Sir William Humber, MP

Bugger, miss two days due to work and other matters, and it goes metastatic...]

[OOC] Oh please don't try and defend your blatantly incorrect use of the word jihad, just accept the fact that you slipped up.
Not as such.
ji·had
–noun
1. a holy war undertaken as a sacred duty by Muslims.
2. any vigorous, emotional crusade for an idea or principle.

And about the counterintelligence issue :
1. Your beloved "front page" says that your low crime rates are due to "progressive social policies", I don't see how that means your spies are any good.

Please don't forget "all-pervasive police force" (with CCTV viewing of most public areas - it came up in an issue :D).

2. You don't even know what kind of crime is "rampant" in my society. It could be that 50% of my population gets pulled over every day for drunk driving, which really wouldn't say much about our counterintelligence abilities.

It would say a lot about your police force's ability to keep on top of things if drunk driving is seen as a 'serious crime problem'. It is, at least, an indicator.

3. And how does crime make it harder to find infiltrated agents ? Please develop.

Counterintelligence agents are not the only people looking for enemy agents. Police would also be on the lookout. But if the police are all trying, and failing, to keep on top of the 'serious crime problem' then they are not looking too hard at people who aren't breaking the law in any serious fashion (ie, people who don't want to draw attention to themselves).

4. And your national safety might not be as good as you think. "Crime is totally unknown"... but at the same time http://sunsetrpg.com/economystatistics.php?nation=ackmanistan tells me you have a black market problem... maybe crime is more of a problem then you think and you just dont know about it :p

Interesting. I hadn't seen that page before.
Mind you, it doesn't change what the front page is saying (it says right on that page that it's experimental and in no way authoritative). So if my front page says "Crime is totally unknown" then ... well, there you have it.

5. My nation is a highly stratified underground police state. as you would know if you understood the reference. Try and infiltrate that.
So no, I won't rp as if you had multiple WMDs inside my nation. Before you rp something that involves physical influence on another nation, at least try to contact the other player to reach an agreement about it.

As it seems that we can't even agree as to which references to use for our nations I don't think we can rp one-on-one for this one. (Let's just say that my infiltration agents tested your borders and came away less than happy :p)

EDIT: Having performed a little research, now I understand where you're coming from.

All I can say is, ew.

We would be pleased to send a representative to the gathering titled "International Security Summit 2007".

I myself am regrettably too busy for travel at this moment, but I will be sending my trusted aide, Deputy Speaker Sherman, in my place. He has been empowered to speak with full authority on my behalf and that of Ackmanistan as a whole.

While we understand that your security arrangements are undoubtedly more than adequate, protocol does not permit our Deputy Speaker to travel beyond our borders without at least a token security force; this force will be made up of twenty volunteers from all branches of the Ackmanistan military. They will be under orders to liaise with your security forces, but their primary duty will be to see to the well-being of Deputy Speaker Sherman.

Please contact us via secure landline to determine time of arrival.

His Majesty's Secretary

Dear Sir,

Your communication to the Greater Economic Union of New Manth has found its way to my desk, and it is with great displeasure that I have read it. While it is not generally the policy of the Greater Economic Union to intervene aggressively in the affairs of poverty-stricken third world nations, I regret to inform you that the Denomination considers this something of a special case. To wit, while we are content to let international communism rot in its hell-holes so long as it keeps to itself, any attempt at invading and overthrowing the government of a capitalist nation by the armed forces of The Philippiniada will be met with the appropriate response. The Greater Economic Union is bound to intervene not only by her treaty obligations under ACID, but simply by common sense and international decency.

The Denomination requests a prompt response affirming that your nation's armed forces are standing down and abandoning any plans for aggressive action. Whatever you may choose to do from that point on will be your own concern, but a failure to deliver such a response within forty-eight hours will be considered a refusal and will be met with an appropriate response.

It never ceases to amuse us, this anti-socialist tripe. Spouted by so many nations, so few of whom understand the concept of caring for the populace. Nonetheless, it is all we can do to attempt to enlighten the world, even those who cannot be enlightened. We will attend this meeting, whether anything good comes of it is another matter.

Nation's Full Name: The Island Empire of Barronia
Delegates: General Conrad Strom, Magistrate Amelie St Claire
Security Forces(minimum of 30 personels): 50 men - mainly assault rifles. 1 sniper, 2 machine gunners, 2 anti-tank warfare specialists. More men on alert at nearest Barronian base (OOC: You may be near one of my colonies, I don't know)
Aide-de-camp: Johnathan Lucia, Alexia Mercenda
Special Requests: Storage for 2 military transports, 2 4x4s, 1 VLT L8, and a Sky Lord Medium Military Transport Helicopter

To the nation of New Manth, we find your words, well, ridiculous. Any attempt to overthrow a communist nation by yourselves will in turn be met with an appropriate response. We have no desire ourselves to see this escalate into conflict, because, despite the twisted, and quite frankly deluded perception of communism and socialism by ACID, we are not lovers of war and conflict. We believe that each nation is entitled to it's own ideology, and we believe that respect works in two directions. We hope the same can be said of you.

The people of the Empire of Hofkauzern are demanding a response against the actions of Dr Merkwudigliebe. Hofkauzern has recently experienced an economic collapse that has led to the eradication of private ownership in the nation. However, this has left our nation too weak to provide any effective military responses without support. Instead, Hofkauzern will provide a diplomatic response by sending delegates to both the International Security Summit 2007 in Maniylad and the Oka Summit proposed by the Ryou Black Islands. By unanimous vote in the National Assembly, Hofkauzern's application for attendance has been ratified by our government. We hope that The Philippiniada and the Ryou Black Islands accept our attendance proposal. Attendance of the International Security Summit 2007 requires the completion of this form:

Whatever you may choose to do from that point on will be your own concern, but a failure to deliver such a response within forty-eight hours will be considered a refusal and will be met with an appropriate response.

COMMUNIQUE TO THE NATION OF MEW MANTH


Nicollo Andrea


Our King and Our President are in a International Affair at ViZion which is known to be a Christmas Party, we don't want to disturb them because our strict orders is not to contact them unless "AMIDST OF A NATIONAL EMERGENCY",

We feel offended by your perception of our country as a poverly-stricken nation, the Vice President of our Nation said that it will contact our King and President as this was a clear threat to the Empire, why would we stand down?, it is our right to strengthen our military, and we will not stop even if you threaten us with your precious WMD's, you will only prove that capitalist nations are only concerned with their own borders and will intervene only if their interests are at stakes(namely, Dr, Mekwurdigliebe), i will say this to you, if you don't revert your threat of a "appropriate response" if we refuse, we will assure you that your country will suffer consenquences of sanctions, and probably, even more.


We can settle this by peacful means and i hope we do, but if you don't cooperate with us, then so be it, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year,


Jonathan Bruno
Honorary Imperial Magistrate

International Ministry of Hofkauzern

The people of the Empire of Hofkauzern are demanding a response against the actions of Dr Merkwudigliebe. Hofkauzern has recently experienced an economic collapse that has led to the eradication of private ownership in the nation. However, this has left our nation too weak to provide any effective military responses without support. Instead, Hofkauzern will provide a diplomatic response by sending delegates to both the International Security Summit 2007 in Maniylad and the Oka Summit proposed by the Ryou Black Islands. By unanimous vote in the National Assembly, Hofkauzern's application for attendance has been ratified by our government. We hope that The Philippiniada and the Ryou Black Islands accept our attendance proposal. Attendance of the International Security Summit 2007 requires the completion of this form:

Magisteriate of International Affairs

This is acceptable. We look forward to meeting you. We are currently debating within the Magisteriate on making an offer for Philippiniada to become a Protectorate of the Magisterium. If you are interested in this offer, you are free to contact us.
