[Earth II] The Two Fuhrers

The rise of the Greater Australian Reich had created a mixed reaction on the international stage. Some nations automatically shunned the GAR and its 'National Socialist' ideology, others simply ignored it and yet some decided to open relations with this new nation.
The Commonwealth of Hirgizstan was one of these nations. At first the Hirgizstanian press had been puzzled at the decision of Congress to approve initially a Provisional and then Free Trade Agreement, especially with a nation that had outlawed Judaism, Islam and Budhism, three well represented religions across the nation. However, the public's (and the press') understanding of sovereignty ensured that the puzzlement remained confined to fair debate on the subject.
The Fuhrer himself had already been in contact with his counterpart, Fuhrer Joeri Willem, in Australia and a meeting had been scheduled at the White House in Hirgizstan City, Cape Verde.
Cape Verde International and Hirgizstan City itself was busy preparing for the first official state visit by Fuhrer Willem.

"With the wrap up of the meeting in Laytreb City, Fuhrer Willem continues to travel onto Hirgizstan City were he is to meet with the Fuhrer of The Commonwealth of Hirgizstan. This meeting is expected to last the same amount of time as the meeting in Laytreb City. Topics in this meeting are expected to be on the subject of trade and relations with one of our few allies in the world stage. After this meeting the Fuhrer is scheduled to return to Perth. This has been Kuno Baptist, RNN. Back to you Jeremias."
OOC: Do you want to skip the landing and move onto me arriving at the white house?

OOC: Can you give me a spoiler. Such as something to the point of your people waiting for me. I'm kinda in the dark as to what your buildings and roads and just general surroundings are like.

Hirgizstan City, Cape Verde
It was to be a fairly grand official visit. It would mark not only the recognition of a new nation on the world stage, but would also mark an already burgeoning trade and diplomatic dialogue that has grown exponentially since the Greater Australian Reich declared their independence.
Since the visit was official, the city mall, essentially a two mile stretch of grassy areas dotted with memorials, statues and lined with historical sites and buildings. The mall had only been in existence since 1912 and many of the statues and memorials had either been moved or had been erected since then. The grassy areas were themselves bordered with walkways to allow the public access to the grand space that occupied the central area of the Commonwealth's capital.
The mall ended with a semi-circular ornate garden and then gave way to the 'half-mile hill' that was topped with the Congress, a squat, rectangular building of bleached white stone with a leaping iron wolf on top of the huge dome.
The White House, the official residence of the Fuhrer, sat half a mile to the west along a road known locally as 'the diplomats express', but officially called 'The Fuhrer's Walk'. The White House itself dated from 1794, being completed 5 years after Independence.
The house itself was of bleached white brick, of a vastly brighter hue than the Congress. However, the building itself was only a large house with a number of meeting rooms. A large bunker lay directly beneath it. In the ground of the house are the remains of the first Hirgizstanian castle/fort, built on Cape Verde in AD571 to keep the Hirgizstanians who lived there safe from marauding pirates of the Kameze.
All that was left of the original castle were the walls, none above 14ft.
For the arrival of Fuhrer Joeri Willem the flagpoles that dotted the main avenues and streets of the capital had been doubled it, so along with the customary Hirgizstanian flag, now fluttered the GAR flag.
Despite this, the city's inhabitants would take little real notice of the visit. They were used to such diplomatic shows and would carry on their daily lives, perhaps catching a glimpse of the arriving motorcade on the news or see a picture in the newspaper of the Fuhrer shaking hands with Fuhrer Willem.
(OOC: Hope this is ok. If you want some more facts about the nation in general check out my factbook. Just note, Hirgizstan City is fairly small, only about 600,000 people.)

Fuhrer Willem sat in the back seat of his BMW M3 Sedan as he traveled down the main road towards the White House. Hirgisztan and GaR flags dotted the sides of the road. They fluttered in the wind gracefully as if welcoming the Fuhrer to Africa. The hot humid climate was dulled by the Sedans air conditioning as Willem watched the blazing sun overhead. Ahead of the Fuhrers Vehicle 4 more Sedans served as decoys. As they approached the palace the Fuhrer viewed the bleached brick decor of the White house. It seemed very humble in comparison to the Laytrebian Castle, but never the less a beautiful site.
The 5 Sedan motorcade traveled up the driveway of the white house. 4 FS guards exited one of the forward cars and opened the Fuhrers door. Willem struggled to exit the vehicle. He took out a small cane that aided him in walking. Walking up to the main door of the white house, he was flanked by his staff and guards.

The front of the White House was exactly 100 paces from the driveway and the small red brick walk was covered with a white awning to protect guests from the sun. Down over the grass and past the fences, reporters and camera crews jostled for position, trying to catch the first glimpses of the two Fuhrer's.
Fuhrer Willem stepped out of his car and was met with a rap of boots and weapon stocks as the Fuhrer Guards lining the walkway under the awning snapped to attention.
The Fuhrer came out of the front door a few seconds later and walked down toward the BMW, meeting Fuhrer Willem on the other side and shaking hands warmly. "Fuhrer Willem, it is truly an honor to finally meet you."

"As such to you, my friend." He said in a soft tone. After shaking the Fuhrers hand he quickly returned it to his cane to support himself for the rest of the walk to the meeting room. "You have a beautiful estate here. The climate is much like that of Australia." He mentioned to the Fuhrer as they began to enter the building.

The Fuhrer walked beside Fuhrer Willem as the walked under the awning up toward the front doors of the house.
"Yes, I expect some parts of Africa are similar in climate to Australia. Right here on Cape Verde, at least I am told, we get a climate not unlike that in the Carribean, and as I hope you notice, we also have their clear blue waters, sandy beaches and our fair share of palm trees. But this heat...this is nothing compared to the Congo, or the deserts of Libya and New Mexico. But thankfully, the seat of Hirgizstanian leaders has been Cape Verde since we were thrown out of Africa by the Kameze around 700AD. Since then we have taken our land back and inherited some more in the process, but I'm thankful the Hirgizstanian leadership is at home on this island state, I can't imagine a more beautiful place for a capital city."
