Vallingard, North Faxanavia, Faxanavia. 1300 hours.
The light was bright in the sky as Imperator Hephaestus Blackforge's imperial transport (a black Rolls-Royce, with the colors of Faxanavia painted on its front hood) rolled along the freshly paven streets of Vallingard, the capital of Faxanavia. He was bound for the palace (formerly Freedom Hall) for an important meeting, that had been called by the Lord Cartographer a half an hour ago. The black car pulled up in front of the vast stone steps of the palace, and the Imperator dismounted from the car. A small, nervous looking man stood, waiting to greet him. This was Artheus Blantall, the Lord Cartographer of the Grand Imperial Federation. He scurried alongside the Imperator as he Hephaestus strode up the steps, and explained the situation in a timid voice.
"Well, your lordship, you see, we've made a fascinating discovery" The two men strode down stone passage ways, until they finally reached the small door on the fourth floor which led to the Lord Cartographer's chambers. In here, all cartographical work and planning for expansion was discussed. On the wall a monitor glowed, and on it an image was shown.
It was an island. A large island, yet still an island. The Lord Cartographer coughed, and said, "My lord, we have discovered an island off of the west coast of our region. Some 1200 miles out to sea, in fact. Out in the Degros sea, to be exact. This island, lord, is some 94,526 square miles in area. It is 700 miles in length and is a fraction under 300 miles at its widest. It is sparsely populated only by tribes of indigenous people. We propose that Faxanavia lays claim to some of this island, but allows the rest of the world to stake thier claim as well." The Imperator stared up at the map. "What do you call this island, Lord Cartographer?" "We call it Europia Conquistada, my lord." The Imperator stared at the screen, a smile crossing his face. This could work out well...
|Official Faxanavian Communique|
To: The world
From: Imperator Hephaestus Blackforge
Dear friends,
It has come to the attention of the Grand Imperial Federation of Faxanavia that an island, some 700 miles long, and 94,526 square miles in area, has been discovered 1200 miles off of the coast of our region. It is populated only sparsely by tribes of indigenous people. Though we of the Grand Imperial Federation have laid claim to a portion of it, the rest is open to colonization by the world.
Respectfully yours,
Hephaestus Blackforge
Imperator

25 military-grade CJ-19 helicopters buzzed over the combined landmass now known as "Faxanavian Europiana". The sky was bright, and clear, and each of the helicopters carried a contingent of 15 troops, for a total of 375 troops landing. These forces would establish a base camp in the south of Faxanavian Europiana, and from there would set out, mapping, laying claim, and attempting to befriend the natives. Behind the fleet of helicopters, a small force of ships followed. They were coming with some 1500 settlers, mostly small families, who would start their new lives on Faxanavian Europiana.

"I declare in the Name of the Monarchy of Aqua Anu, this colony be so deemed The Monarchy of Colônia aquática." And she set the flag into the soil. Hundreds disembarked from the ships to begin a new life. Already deals were going around to start up farms and fishing refineries. Others were laying claim to house plots. "Princess, we have set a wonderful place for you to remain while construction continues."

The Questarian ships appeared on the northern coast of Norway, great black silhouettes in the early morning stretching as far as the eye could see. Across the coast, marine landings paved the way for both military and civilian engineers and purveyors to plot out the land and begin to mark down cities, but first creating basic infrastructure.
Meanwhile, three Triumph Class Aircraft Carriers and their respective escorts established a zone of control around Denmark, landing small marine groups which were later to be reinforced by paras. When the larger airfields were up, dozens of patrol planes would scour the North and Baltic Seas, informing any ships of the new colonial holdings and the fact that the waters 80km from the coastlines of Norway and Denmark were Questarian waters now.

A Colstream Air Force C-17 Globemaster II appeared over the land they had been given. 100 Engineers from the 1st Airborne Division jumped out into a forest on the south coast of the largest island. 1 hour later, an airfield had been constructed and the first C130J Hercules landed carrying 300 more engineers ready to build the Army Base and Naval Base needed to help support the war in Jingiskan. The new territory was named the Colstream Republic Of Britainia.
Several buildings were also starting to spring up as engineers started to build the military base. Several aircraft were unloading food surplies and military equipment. There was even a city which would become the new countries capital being constructed adding the hive of activity. 2 more hours later, the airfield was surrounded by the first buildings of the military base which the first soldiers would sleep before heading to Jingiskan.

[So this is like a mini-europe?]
East Coast of Kroadon Ukraine
As the Eastern Sun rose, the native tribes of the Ukraine would see mountains on the horizon. Mountains where there was previously nothing but the vast spanse of sea that was the 'Great Ocean'. These indiginous peoples were primative, a fishing people primarily, in stark contrast to the hunters and gatherers to the west. Kroandon Geographers had predicted fertile soil on this section of the continent due to samples previously taken, and documentation of the natural vegetation in the area. And no more than four weeks after the Kroandons had found this land... there were mountains on the horizon.
The peoples of the tribe stood along the shore in their ragged clothes staring in confusion, scratching their heads as the mountains took the shapes of vessels, massive black vessels which to them, were still just mountains. And then there was a great thunder from those mountains, as stars shot off from them, bright stars first into the sky... then towards the shore, and then at the village. The stars exploded into massive balls of fire as the village soon broke apart and dispersed into the distance, the survivors of the strike running for their lives.
Minutes later Amphibious Assault Vehicles rolled onto the shore, their guns firing at anything that moved as Legionnaires unloaded upon the shores, clearing the area for a larger landing. And indeed a larger landing did come, in the form of thousands of Legionnaires, thousands of massive supply trucks... and thousands of civilians. Krocraine, or so the land was now called, was to be turned into a massive agricultural producing farm, to feed the millions of starving Kroandons back in Antarctika. Over the next several months, over 100,000 Kroandons were to be immigrated into the territory, and employed as farmers as the land was cleared. Grain, and lots of it, was the purpose of the land.
The military however, was always the first to make its mark. Fortifications and outposts were deployed on the borders of the territory, with artillery pieces and Surface-to-Air Missile Batteries accompanying the camps. Those natives that were captured were thrown into forced labor programs that involved clearing the land, leveling trees, moving boulders... all of which were taken back to Antarctika as raw resources. Plows and tractors soon filled the landscape, as lumber jacks made way for their arrival.
All of this was of course, part of Malthus' Greater Plan... for which tens of thousands had died already.

The Second slightly smaller island to the west that was given to them was quickly occupied by Colstream Forces and annexed to the Colstream Republic Of Britainia. Colstream Army and Colstream Marine Soldiers landed and started to move up the island. Within a few hours the whole island was occupied and fortifications started to be constructed on the west and southern side of the island. Also on the largest island, some army units raced to the north of the island to secure the hills and construct submarine bases to secure the countries northern flank. Agricuture was also starting to arrive, with many small towns appearing all over the 2 islands. The capital had been mostly built and given the name, Britania City. The surrounding areas in the south had been turned into a large airbase where military aircraft was coming in with people who had been misplaced by the Colstream Civil War and being given a new home in the new territories. Their old homes was being turned back to nature and agricultural land.

Should they drop or fire anything in our airspace, the half trhe might of the Uir army shall be felt in all Zarbli's territories.

Any attempt of Anbia to settle in the Imperial Nations of Slovakia and the Czech Province will be considered an act against Zarblese sovereignity.

It has just been voted in parliament to allow a treaty to be signed that would give both Anbia and the Zarblese Empire mutual, thus equal, rights to the lands of the Czech and the lands of Slovakia.

It was declared that the captial was to be established at the village. It was Sofia by the natives and the name was kept. The captial of Sofia was the site of the first city in Bulgaria, and more were bulit along the coast. More ships arrive to establish bases and other important structures.

I do not follow your reasoning in this. If the treaty is accepted, the land will ,in fact, belong under the legal authority of both Zarbli and Anbia. Thus, you must recognize the sovereignty of both our nations in the region. To place one above the other is quite unfair.

Unfair? You were too late to claim so you don't have any right to sovereigntiy over the area. It's like France going to England to make the channel islands a condominium.
Unfair? You were too late to claim so you don't have any right to sovereigntiy over the area. It's like France going to England to make the channel islands a condominium.
This argument is irrelevent. If both states agree to the area becoming a condominium, then both states recognize the others legal authority over the area. Thus, other states must also recognize the sovereignty of both nations in the region. If Zarbli accepts the treaty then the area belongs to both Zarbli and Anbia, you must recognize my country on equal terms as Zarbli in the region.
Though this argument is all for not if Zarbli rejects the treaty at which point Anbia will withdraw its claim to the land. Anbia is just waiting for an answer from the Zarblese Empire at the moment.

Faxanavian Europia was beggining to grow. Some 4,500 settlers had arrived, as well as a total of 500 military personell. A local governor had been selected by the Imperator, and things were going well. The indigenous people had been most agreeable, and were existing well, especially as the Faxanavians were willing to supply them with modern conveniences. So, the Imperator decided that it was time, metaphorically, to meet the neighbors.

The new colony was to be called Terra Valde Acies. A week prior to the official announcement a colony fleet had been assembled and at this moment it was nearing the new colony with its first thousand residents along with a thousand soldiers of the Aurum Doman Army. The ships also carried a small amount of the special inflatable buildings. These had been used to quickly establish a colonial presence since the first Aurum Doman colony, Aureus Insula, was established in the Deadlands Continent.
At sunrise the fleet finally pulled into a small bay on the coast. From what the colonists could see, the land was beautiful. White sands and beautiful forests and shrub land dotted the coast. It seemed like a great place to build the capital city.
Several inflatable buildings were unloaded and placed on a preselected piece of land in the meadows near the coast of the bay. The two thousand Aurum Domans assembled and a small ceremony took place officially commemorating the new city and giving it its name, Sinus Urbs

The Empire of Zarbli accepts Anbia's proposal. Shall we discuss matters of how the shared control of these lands shall occur? Shall both our states appoint one governor each (to rule over the lands together, like ancient Roman consuls) and proportional legislative chambers?

The sky was turning a deep shade of purple as night set in and the Faxanavian 7th infantry division marched onward, their packs heavy on their backs. They were just part of the group of 500 soldiers who defended and explored Faxanavian Europia. The 7th, in particular, was up to the exploring bit. They were pushing north from the base camp and capital (named Albringer, after its founder and governor) into the wilds of this area. Tribesmen leared out from bushes, and strange animals leapt from tree to tree. It was two or three hours before they finally set up camp, in a small, woody clearing. Tents were unpacked, rations handed out, and the cartographers compared the map's they had been making. Private 2nd Class James Benson relaxed, muscles aching after the long hike. He sat down on the ground, but found something hard embedded in his hindquarters. Standing, he rubbed the bruised spot, and extracted from the ground where he had been sitting a small shard of clear, sharp stone. He inspected it closely, and with a sudden shout of suprise and joy, came hurtling back to camp.

North Sea - 12 Kilometers North East of Sealand - 200Meters Below Water
Captain Turgent grumbled to himself as he stormed to the command deck of the K.K.S Hurven, the Tenerife Class Submarine sent from Krocraine to continue the war on Vantania... even here, in this remote section of the world. About a week and a half after Kroandon Forces occupied the Eastern portion of this 'Europan' Isle, it was discovered that the Vantanians had also staked a claim... albeit, a much smaller claim. So small it would not even appear on a map if you looked at one. It was an old sea fort of some kind, inhabited and claimed by Vantanians. Though this colony held no strategic or economic value to the Kroandons at all, it had become more than a simple land grab to Kroando. It was an issue of pride.
The Vantanians had laughed and spit upon the Kroandons during the Great Stagnation, which seemed to be lifting due to the war time economy, and now the Kroandons wanted revenge. Grand Marshal Klague, Turgent's Commander through the ranks, had ordered Sealand destroyed, simply out of hatred for those people occupying it. And so now, two weeks later, the K.K.S Hurven, a nuclear powered submarine, was sitting 12km's north of it, armed with five 500mm Torpedos.
"I can't believe I'm saying this men... but fire all torpedos at Sealand.", Turgent sighed to himself and shook his head in disgust... it was almost an insult to the Veteran Captain to be sent on such a mission. Moments later five high explosive torpedos were heading right for the old military platform called Sealand.

"Bloody peasants"
In spite of his humble background, Lord Ronoan hated peasants. He has fought his way up to the Lordship of Akinlabi and now of this new land (which the Emperor named Ungarai) and had learned that in the Empire, peasants actually could become more. If they don't, it's because they choose so, and he could not help despising anyone who did that choice.
"How many did you say this peasant of yours have seen?"
"He didn't know for sure, my lord... he only said 'many'"
Amazon Akiran had recently been chosen by Lord Ronoan to be his First Maid. She still felt uneasy in his giant office, covered with his personal green, white and blue coat of arms, with the Empire's Blue Tiger embroidered on the chair. She felt even worse when she knew he wouldn't like the news she brought, but she had to stay still if she ever intented to be granted a Siredom in this land.
"Do I have my lord's permission to address the group?", she finally asked.
"No, but you are welcome to join me"

Of course there were faster ways to reach the supposed invading army, but Lord Ronoan still liked the horse better (for the disgrace of the jeep lover Akiran). Ronoan lead a party of the Imperial Chivalry towards the leader of the foreigners, bearing his flag emblazond by the Empire's in the left hand, and his Imperial Shotgun in the other.
"HALT!", he shouted to the group, "This are Zarblese lands, under protection of Emperor Fabio I and the supervision of the Lord of Ungarai. Declare your intentions."

Varisov wasn't built in a day. It was built in three days. That is, what needed to be built. Hospitals, government offices, retail shops, factories, mines and military bases needed to be built in the native encampment along the river. The Uir were very friendly to the natives but the Uir decided to ignore them. The natives could hunt and fish and live their way of life, and the Uir had to respect that and leave them alone. Uir Conquistada was created as a colony. The politicsl system was essentially a carbon copy of the system used in another Uir colony, Uir Anaritica.

OOC: Break down the terms of the treaty? You seem to be under the false impression that Uiri is recognizing the treaty.
As you may or may not have been informed the Zarblese Empire has accepted the treaty of joint ownership of the territory consisting of the Czech Republic and the lands of Slovakia. You must recognize the treaty and the fact that because of this treaty the Zarblese Empire and the Kingdom of Anbia both share sovereignty over the region. If you continue to disregard this treaty and place the Zarblese Empire over Anbia, Anbia will cease all diplomacy with the Uir State.
Imperial Decree 030108
Concerning the New Nations of the Zarblese Empire
Their names, governors (head of govern) and protectors (head of state)
1. All four territories are now considered Nations of the Empire of Zarbli, therefore are subjects to Zarblese law and protection.
2. The nations are:

Capital: Ubadsepet
Protector: Lord Ronoan of Akinlabis and Ungarai
Governor: to be elected
2.2 OTSEAI ("West land")

If you continue to disregard this treaty and place the Zarblese Empire over Anbia, Anbia will cease all diplomacy with the Uir State.
a) I am well aware that Zarbli has agreed to the agreement. Congratulations, but just because you have sovereignity de jure does not garuantee it de facto.
b) There is no Czech Republic or Slovakia. There is only a border defined for no particular reason which you have been granted sovereignity over.
c) Uiri will not allow Anbia ships within any waters belonging to the Colony of Uir Conquistada.
d) I am not placing the Zarblese Empire over Anbia. I am stating that I do not recognize the sovereignity of Anbia over any lands of Europa Conquistada as you have 'given up' your claims to small coastal area, a tiny landlocked plot of land and a small archipelago.
e) Go ahead and cease diplomacy with my country.

She was here to inspect the newest territory of the Kingdom of Anbia, and to see to that the area was well defended against any potential Uir aggression. An Anbia soldier quickly ran towards Minister Revina and greeted her.
"Welcome to Del Alamiin*."
"Yes. It is good to finally get here. How go things in Rilorna?" Minister Revina asked.
"They are going fine, Madam. The Zarblese Empire has established a capital quite close to ours, but I do not think this will be a problem," he answered, "Ah, here is your escort, he will take you to Rilorna."
"Good." she answered.
*'Del Alamiin' translates roughly to 'The Land in the East'. This name refers to all of Czechoslovakia, he Anbian capital in the region is Rilorna.
Somewhere in Central Ukraine - Nomadic Native Camp
"Look at em'... filthy savages...", commented Field Marshal Morgtz as he peered through his Night-Vision Binoculars down unto the native camp, watching as a rather large, burly man grabbed a woman, hit here over the head and took her into the woods to rape her, which went on for roughly twelve minutes. Little to the knowledge of these 'renegades', Kroandon Legionnaires surrounded their camp, positioned in the woods around the clearing.
"They don't act all that unusually Marshal...", replied the mans Lieutenant as he looked down over the steep drop off from the ridge. "Probably what our boys would be doing if they had their say about things.", continued the officer, forcing a slight chuckle out of Morgtz.
"The cynic eh' Firn?", the Marshal joked as he continued to survey the camp, making sure that all escape routes had been cut off. The natives did not take very kindly to the Kroandons, commonly ambushing civilian convoys moving agricultural and mining equipment about the country side. They made pitiful slaves, as they could hardly speak, let alone communicate in Kroandon, and often tried to run away. They were for the most part, being driven north, into Uiri en masse, those whom refused to emmigrate became victim to raids like the one quickly approaching.
"Lets see if they'd like to leave now.", laughed Morgtz, quickly touching a button on his CommLink and continuing, "All cleared Captain... commence attack at your discretion."
And then the forest lit up, as over two dozen Legionnaires opened up with their C1 Assault Rifles, cutting down the primative native nomads inside the camp. Grenades soon followed, EastCHN being the Kroandon favorite. The EastCHN was a grenade which, rather than exploding, spun around spewing out a flaming napalm-like mixture, covering anything and everything in the area in flame, eat and a horrid smell. The huts of the nomads burned... as did the men... women and children. It was a massacre to be frank, not a battle... and it was quick. The bodies were piled up and set aflame, numerous trinkets and souveniers being taken by the soldiers before they pulled out and returned to their humvees waiting a few miles down the road.
It was estimated that in the first month alone, over 30,000 Natives were herded north, and driven into Uiri controlled Belarus. The number of dead far exceeded that number...
a) I am well aware that Zarbli has agreed to the agreement. Congratulations, but just because you have sovereignity de jure does not garuantee it de facto.
b) There is no Czech Republic or Slovakia. There is only a border defined for no particular reason which you have been granted sovereignity over.
c) Uiri will not allow Anbia ships within any waters belonging to the Colony of Uir Conquistada.
d) I am not placing the Zarblese Empire over Anbia. I am stating that I do not recognize the sovereignity of Anbia over any lands of Europa Conquistada as you have 'given up' your claims to small coastal area, a tiny landlocked plot of land and a small archipelago.
e) Go ahead and cease diplomacy with my country.
Fine.
The government of the Kingdom of Anbia hereby declares that it does not recognize the Uir State. All diplomacy is terminated.

"Sir, come quick, it's a message from the territory with 'shared sovereignity' over Zarblese land,"shouted an assistant.
"So they've cut communications with us? I guess we need some border patrol. The Zarblese Empire is letting them in and we don't want an attack." responded the assistant's boss.
"Should I inform the Empire of Zarbli?"
"Yes, please do so. Also inform them that they may not move through our colony nor its airspace before Anbia is out of Slovakai and Anoasis Txekis."
"I will do it right away, sir"
Message:
TO: Lady Ilaiva of Salki and Kexti; Lord Aopol of Ula and Slovakai
FROM: The Colonial Republic of Uir Conquistada
Greetings Lady Ilaiva and Lord Aopol,
As you may or may not be aware, our colonial territory shares a border with yours. You also may or may not know that up until now we have been allowing you to move settlers and other supplies through our colonial territory and even fly with any aircraft over our colonial territory's airspace. I regret to inofrm you that we are stopping this service until you no longer recognize Anbian sovereignity over your lands.
We also wish to avoid armed conflict but as your territory is 'shared' by the Zarblese Empire with Anbia, we must strengthen border control with armed troops. Anbiua has declared to not recognize the sovereignity of the Territories of the North Parliamentary Republic of Uiri. Should any attack be launched on us we shall have no choice but to engage in conflict and perhaps even war.
Sincerely,
Governor of the Colonial Republic of Uir Conquistada
"Madam, the Uir State to the north has strengthened their border patrols, we have also been informed that all air traffic to and from this region have been banned access to Uir air-space." reported a short secretary coming in from the hallway.
Minister Revina was sitting in her temporary office in a government building in the Anbian capital of Rilorna. Her face paled quite noticably after hearing the news. This changed instantly as anger took over.
"Uiri's insolence knows no bounds! We will meet every move they make in turn. Send more soldiers to guard the border. I want our soldiers to be so close to the border that the Uir soldiers can see the whites of their eyes! NOW!"
She was sweating, and her face was red. Her outside composure faltered however when the door closed behind the secretary. She was scared. The Uir State was much more powerful than her country. She wanted to avoid war but it seemed as if Uir was poking and prodding in the hope of causing her to react without thinking.
She picked up the phone and dialed, it rang for a moment before a mans voice answerd.
"Yes, Madam Revina."
"Send for a diplomat from the Zarblese Empire, I need to discuss something with them."
"What is it?"
"We may be in trouble." she hung up and layed her head on her hands.

Lt.Col Caryle was inspecting the troops underneath his command, the 15th Infantry Division, the troops held their Hali-53's to port arms position and he barked "At ease soldiers.." The soldiers relaxed, and he said "As you know, there has been a native uprising in the town of Deva, 25 miles from here. They have raised objection to the new name of San Salvador, and they want the old name back!"
Caryle continued "We are being sent to quell the rebellion, for General Roberts will not tolerate rioting in his own state, do you understand!" He barked this last, and the soldiers said in unison "Yes sir!" He barked "Let's move out!, we'll be supported by the 5th Armored Division!"

The Uir soldiers patrolled the borders, just a metre away from being on the line between the Uir colony and the Zarblese colony. They noticed that there were foreign nationals patroling the border. This was peculiar as Zarbli seemed like a nation which would normally have its own armed forces. A single soldier however, noticed that they seemed like Anbians. The soldier raidoed this up the chain of command until it reached the level which had sent the message.
This was in no possible way a positive thing. This meant that Anbia was actually being allowed in by the Zarblese Empire. It seemed like the Zarblese would have to make a decision on who they wanted to be allies with. A puny country who has set up a condominium in half their colony for no particular reason then to be able to say they have a colony. The other option was a nation of over 50 times the size of the first who has been an overall pleasant neighbour and has three other colonies.

"Good God." was all Commander Raas could utter when he saw the sheer power the Uir soldiers represented. He didn't feel at all as powerful as he had when Minister Revina had promoted him. He realized he didn't know anything about military matters and now he was at the forefront of what looked like a potential war...
"Attention!" he barked. Several hundred Anbian soldiers raced forward and stood silently. Commander Raas examined his soldiers. This wasn't nearly enough if Uir decided to invade. Half of them weren't even armed for gods sake.
"Men..." he stopped, he had had a patriotic speech prepared in his mind, but it seemed so cliche now, even childish. This was real life, not a movie, "Divide into groups of twenty. Three groups will take these trucks," he motioned over his soldier to a group of three large trucks, "and patrol west. Another three groups will take these three trucks," he motioned to another group of trucks to his left, "and will patrol east. The rest of you. Wait here for further orders." He walked away from the men as they set about their tasks and radioed in to inform Minister Revina of the situation.

The Faxanavian's had become aware of the growing military threats all throughout Europia Conquistada. The strikes on Sealand by Kroando, the open hostilities between Zarbli/Anbia and Uiri, and the apparent uprising in Calizorinstan's colony. In response, the Faxanavians deployed some 10,000 total soldiers to Faxanavian Europia, insuring its protection in the coming war. Vast artillery pieces were brought in by plane, and several surplus aircraft carriers were mobilized, and sat waiting in the bay to serve as storae for close to 300 military aircraft. A further 1,500 troops arrived, but with a different purpose in mind.

The ships neared, breaking the calm sea of the British Channel. The VNS Tolkien was the first to spot the newly claimed land... island... bits of metal. Dubbed "the Two Towers" by the captain, they... docked at the new bit of territory. Walking out, they marvelled at what they saw, and groaned at what had to be done. The suboceanic levels were to be made habitable as residential levels, while the oceanic level was to be the commercial level. Then, the higher levels were to be made into... everything else. Things like restraunts, office space, and that sort of thing. Of course, this meant that Sealand, dubbed Avalon by the Free Republic, would have to be expanded towards the ocean floor, and skyward to the heavens, with various bridges straddling the two towers both suboceanic and the higher sections. There were no resources to gain by the annexation of Avalon, but by taking it, the Vantanians secured themselves a speck of land on Europa, allowing for trade with the other colonies, and a rest point to Vantanian sailors going to and fro from the African colonies.

Several of the rebels fell, but a couple escaped, and soon there were more in the area, having been alerted by a small radio system. They returned fire at the paratroopers with their Winchester 1894 rifles, and they were awaiting more rebel reinforcements.
Meanwhile, the 15th Infantry Division was repelling an attack on their right flank by the rebel infantry, and calvary, and the armored division was repelling the assault on the right flank. A rebel calvary leader and his calvary charged the left flank of the Infantry, and Corporal Bob Jones and his squad opened fire, resulting in a massacre of the enemy calvary.

A blast of gunfire, a scream of pain, and another man fell. That made the 16th wounded man today. the paratroopers had pushed forward, but had met with heavy resistance. Their support from the colonies was not due to arrive for hours, so they went with some caution. They had just chanced across a clearing full of resistance fighters, taking a breather. They were unarmed. Several grenades were lobbed- a sonic one, a gas one, and one full of disorienting chemicals. These potent mixes caused mass disorientation and panic within the clearing, and it was easy for the forces to take down the resting rebels. What they did not expect was the response, for at that very moment several of the rebels, no doubt on patrol, returned to the clearing. They had heard the gunfire, and the paratroopers were forced into a defensive retreat by their suprise attack.

As soon as he stopped the jet, he got up, turned off the engines, and walked down the stairs that he had lowered from the T-39 Saberliner. He walked towards the car and Johan Albringer and he said "Mr.Albringer I presume, I'm General Roberts, Governor of Romania" He held out his hand for Mr.Albringer to shake.
Sergeant Ben saluted neatly, more out of habit then anything else, and replied, "Right then, corporal. I shall order my forces to spread out across the village and conceal themselves. We'll be ready to strike when they arrive."
Johan shook the governor's hand, and smiled. "How wonderful to meet you, General. I welcome you to Faxanavian Europia, our wonderful colony. Please, allow me to show you the scene." He guided the general to his waiting car, and the two entered. "We are bound for Albringer, the capital of Faxanavian Europia. It is a beautiful town. Already, we have over 3 and a half thousand immigrants who have arrived in our beautiful colony." The driver began to pull out, and Johan offered the general a bottled water. "Upon our arrival in the city, we shall sojourn to the governor's residence, where we shall discuss the matters of our alliance. Alternatively, if you should prefer, we could tour the sites..."
"How many men can be sent to Del Alamiin?" asked Minister Revina. The Defense Minister responded sharply saying that only a few, if any, could be sent. After all Del Alamiin was not strategically important to the interests of the Anbian Kingdom and the risk of starting a war was great if more soldiers were deployed.
"Sir, this is now Anbian sovereign land, we cannot give up. To give up now will be a black mark on our reputation as a nation."
"Well Minister Revina, if I may speak frankly, your placing of soldiers on the Uir border was a great overstep of your authority and gives the world the impression that Anbia is arrogant! No more soldiers will be sent. That is final!"
"But, sir..." there was a soft clicking sound as the Defense Minister hung up.
"Goddamit!" shouted Revina. She pushed the telephone off the desk, it shattered when it hit the floor. She knew, by what the Defense Minister said, that she would probably face criminal charges when she returned to Anbia for placing troops on the border without authorization. She also knew that she had to defend this territory while making sure a war was not accidentlly started. She had to juggle these two competing problems.
She pulled her field radio close and called Commander Raas.
"Yes, Madam?"
"Stop patrolling the border, we will leave border defense to the Zarblese Empire. Bring them back to Rilorna to be trained in field assault. If the circumstances get any worse...we will attack Uiri."
"Madam, with all due respect, that is fucking suicide."
"Yes, I know." she hung up.

He ordered his forces to march into the village, and as they did, he pulled out some binoculars, and he saw the enemy marching to the village also! It'd be close, he thought, but they would manage it, as the Rattlesnakes always did!
Meanwhile, General Roberts said "Thank you for the water.." He took it and took a little sip and he said "That arrangement sound perfectly find, our colony already has 2,750 colonists. We are having a bit of an native uprising at the moment, as you know we changed the capital to San Salvador from Buchrast, and it seems that the natives objected to that. So, they started a revolt in this little town called Deva, that uprising, and the fact that tensions are growing throughout the continent are worrying me a bit."
ATTN. UIRI
Somewhere in Central Ukraine - Nomadic Native Camp
"Look at em'... filthy savages...", commented Field Marshal Morgtz as he peered through his Night-Vision Binoculars down unto the native camp, watching as a rather large, burly man grabbed a woman, hit here over the head and took her into the woods to rape her, which went on for roughly twelve minutes. Little to the knowledge of these 'renegades', Kroandon Legionnaires surrounded their camp, positioned in the woods around the clearing.
"They don't act all that unusually Marshal...", replied the mans Lieutenant as he looked down over the steep drop off from the ridge. "Probably what our boys would be doing if they had their say about things.", continued the officer, forcing a slight chuckle out of Morgtz.
"The cynic eh' Firn?", the Marshal joked as he continued to survey the camp, making sure that all escape routes had been cut off. The natives did not take very kindly to the Kroandons, commonly ambushing civilian convoys moving agricultural and mining equipment about the country side. They made pitiful slaves, as they could hardly speak, let alone communicate in Kroandon, and often tried to run away. They were for the most part, being driven north, into Uiri en masse, those whom refused to emmigrate became victim to raids like the one quickly approaching.
"Lets see if they'd like to leave now.", laughed Morgtz, quickly touching a button on his CommLink and continuing, "All cleared Captain... commence attack at your discretion."
And then the forest lit up, as over two dozen Legionnaires opened up with their C1 Assault Rifles, cutting down the primative native nomads inside the camp. Grenades soon followed, EastCHN being the Kroandon favorite. The EastCHN was a grenade which, rather than exploding, spun around spewing out a flaming napalm-like mixture, covering anything and everything in the area in flame, eat and a horrid smell. The huts of the nomads burned... as did the men... women and children. It was a massacre to be frank, not a battle... and it was quick. The bodies were piled up and set aflame, numerous trinkets and souveniers being taken by the soldiers before they pulled out and returned to their humvees waiting a few miles down the road.
It was estimated that in the first month alone, over 30,000 Natives were herded north, and driven into Uiri controlled Belarus. The number of dead far exceeded that number...

The 132nd hid themselves well. They took up positions on rooftops, and in apparently uninhabitated buildings. One or two found a vantage point in high buildings, and someone had brought along a rocket launcher which was to be put to good use. They surrounded the areas where major battle was likely to take place, ready to launch suprise attacks to disorient or take down the enemy. They waited, silently, for the rebels to arrive.
The Governor nodded. "We had no idea when this land was first discovered what would come of it. And now, Uiri is at the brink of war with some tiny country, and the Kroandon's are in on their destruction of the environment. This is why sensible contries, like Calizorinstan and Faxanavia need to band together in times like this- to support and aid each other." The car drove slowly through the town, and the governor indicated the sites. "Over here is the site of the Bank of Faxanavia's first building in Faxnavian Europia- its still under construction. Here we have the city center." He indicated a lovely park, full of laughing children and smiling parents. "This is a place of gathering for our entire community." "You'll notice that many of the houses are still pre-fabricated." He pointed to the boxy, rectangular houses. Each one appeared almost entirely the same, and somewhat small, as though they'd been shipped over (which they had.) "We hope to shift out of these, and move into more stable and secure housing." Finally, the car reached a rather large house- not quite a mansion, but large, none the less. "And this is the Governor's House, Casa de Europia." It was a beautiful house, with fine wood finishings and large, open windows. Johan led General Roberts up the front steps and into the house. They entered a tiny sitting room, where Johan offered the General a glass of brandy. Sitting himself, and lighting a cigar, he said, "And now, down to bussiness. We must discuss the terms of this alliance."

As soon as the 15th Infantry Division, and the 8th Armored Division entered the village, all hell broke loose. The enemy started charging from both sides, and the troops were surprised, but they soon returned fire, losing 12 men in the process, but in their return fire dropped alot of the enemy. In The makeshift armored car, a man jumped up, and started to man the Gatling gun. Corporal Jones fired his Hali-53 at the man, and the man slumped, but a man took his place and wildly fired the Gatling Gunn.
The tanks fired their .50 cals, but the rebels were alot more numerous then originally reported.
General Roberts accepted the brandy and thanked Johan, and he said "I propose that we have as a term, that one colony must support the other in times of crisis with supplies or military equipment, or troops if a war. And the the colonies must assist other colonies that are friendly or allied. Does that sound appealing to you?" He sipped some of his brandy, and waited for a response.

Special Officers work on integration of the populace into the Commonwealth where they will be allowed delegates into the Tribal Council.
These officers are trained to deal with more primitive cultures. as in the not so distant past we were in the same "Canoe".
It was estimated that in the first month alone, over 30,000 Natives were herded north, and driven into Uiri controlled Belarus. The number of dead far exceeded that number...
The natives were not bothered by the Uir. They could basically do as they please but that was more because they were on the island before any colonizing power than any other real reason. It made sense too. The only problem was the sheer size of the migration. It was as if the southern colonizing powers were driving them into the colony. A meeting with Kroando would be necessary in order to discuss a solution to the size of the migrations.
TO: Kroando
FROM: Uir Conquistada
Greetings,
I have discovered that there have been huge northern migrations by the natives. I have no qualms about this except for the fact that they are literally numbering in 1000's. I wish to invite you to Varisov (Warsaw) the colony's capital in order to further discuss this matter.
'Czech-Slovak'-'Poland' border
OOC: Are you going for war or going for peace? Doesn't make too much of a difference either way for me. Or do you just want to see how it plays out?
IC: The Uir soldiers were mildly surprised when the Anbians withdrew from the border. Although it was tempting, the Uir resisted the temptation to attack the soldiers. They knew that this would lead to first conflict and then war and that they didn't wish to be killed in war, nor to recieve any form of severe punishment which may be associated with the act. It was certainly a highly volatile situation and conflict in the area would also endager ties with the Zarblese Empire.

From the rooftops, the Faxanavians began to fire conservatively, only shooting when they were sure that nobody would realize they were there. Their presence was to remain secret for as long as possible. The plan was to allow the rebel forces to move back, and then hit them from behind with a heavy barrage. This suprise attack should stop them short, giving the Calizorinstanis the upper hand. However, one thing was to be done. From the highest point, the rocket launcher was brought forward, and a stinger missile loaded, aimed, and fired down at the gatling gun armored vehicle, which was a severe hindrance to the forward movement of the Calizoristanis.
"That sounds an excellent idea. It seems with the ever increasing climate of military unease in this region, it may be important that we band together. I also wish to suggest a free trade agreement." He sipped his own brandy thoughtfully. "This would mean an open trading of any commodities within our colonies. As you may know, we've discovered an abundant diamond mine to the north. We'd be happy to trade these, as well as other commodities from here and the mainland, with you for whatever you can offer us."

The armored vehicle blew up, surprising the rebel forces greatly. This gave the 15th Infantry Division time to do a surprise attack on the left flank of the rebel forces, which regrouped after the flank attack, and attempted to suppress the right flank of the 8th Infantry Division, but the 15th used a pincer movement, dividing into two sections.
The AC-130 arrived on the scene, and fired at the rebel reinforcements that were on the way to Deva, devastating the reinforcements.
General Roberts replied "I heartily agree to the free trade agreement, we've found some fruits, and various metals, like aluminum, and silver that we could trade, if that sounds good." His pager beeped, and he opened it, and he put it back saying "My advisor tells me of the battle raging in Deva, and apparently, some of the 132nd Paratrooper division from your army joined up with my 15th and 8th Infantry division, and now they're struggling for control of the city. I figured you'd wish to know the progress of the battle."
He said "The situation with Uiri, and that small nation, what is it ,Anbia?, It troubles me, and Kroando, troubles me more, for they are our northern neighbors."

IC:
The soldiers were all nervous. They didn't like having their backs to the Uir troops. It made them feel vulnerable. They had been ordered to run to base camp about two miles back and prepare to be sent back to the capital.
One of the soldiers wasn't paying to much attention and tripped over a large root, he fell and smashed his head against a rock, killing him instantly. When he tripped he accidently fired and the bullet killed another soldier. The reaction of the others was one of confusion. Several of the soldiers thought the Uir had opened fire and subsequently fired back. Commander Raas then lost all control of his men. The Anbian soldiers fired indescriminatly accoss the Anbian/Zarblese-Uir border. Many rushed across the border and attacked Uir soldiers...
"Stop! Cease fire! Cease fire!" shouted Commander Raas as he ran behind his men trying to get them to stop. He was shot be a Uir soldier. The Anbian troops were massacred...
The fate of the Anbian colony rested in the hands of Uiri...

FROM: Belgon, Rocraine
I accept your invitation to Varison to discuss the matters at hand, and the future colonization of the island as a whole. I shall arrive in one weeks time, and shall be traveling with a considerable guard, due to the danger of traveling throughout the Northern Regions - Native and Nomadic Resistance has increased as of late, and there is no telling what these savages are capable of.
[Marshal Vircile Rocraine]
One Week Later...
A column of armored vehicles rolled into Varison, in the convoy there were four G-24 Strikers, a pair of ID-57's, numerous armored humvees, and a few troop transports. The column had only been attacked thrice during the trip, the natives hurling some sort of primative explosives, which actually caused two deaths and several injuries... but that was beside the point... the Kroandons had not traveled so far merely to kill a few savages in the Northern Mountains... they had come to discuss the future stability of the region. Marshal Vircile Rocraine, a middle aged, bald man with a rather light complection stepped out of the the humvee, fully equipped in Kroandon Battle Armor, simply lacking a helmet and gas mask.
"I come in to speak with the leader of this... colony."

"As for Uiri, I am much more worried about that. The situation there is rapidly breaking down. I fear war is inevitable. If such an occurence were to take place, where would Calizoristan's loyalties lie?"
The 15th took advantage of this turn in the tide, and let the 8th Armored Division blast away at the rebel forces. A sniper hidden in the rooftop from the 15th Infantry Division was sniping rebels that weren't paying attention, and this had the affect of scaring the rebels enough, that soon the rebels retreated. This was at the cost of 35 troops dead, and 15 wounded for the 15th, and the 9th, 25 dead, 24 wounded.
General Roberts replied "My aide will receive the papers, and I"ll sign them when I get back, and fax back the copy with my signature to it. As to your other question, I would aid the one that was on the right side, and whomever Faxnavia was allied with in the region, who would that be?"

The 132nd has sustained only light losses, thanks to their subversive tactics. 2 men had bee killed, and 9 wounded. Those men were tended to by their comrades, and Sergeant Benjamin returned to consult with the corporal. "Well, Corporal, what is our next move." He stood neatly at attention.
"Well, we're currently allied with Vontanas, Maldorians, and Zoingo through LION. We hope that we can count on some unity should this break down into war that we step into. However, the current Faxanavian plan of action should war break out is to step out of the way. We do not consider ourselves the peace keeping force of the region, and the Imperator believes that standing against Uiri would be unwise. How do you fell about that, general?"

Who then, do you consider the peace keeping force if not yourselves. I don't mean that in an insulting way, just curious?" He sipped his brandy and waited for an answer.
The sergeant nodded, and began directing his forces to move the wounded into places of more cover, while others began to unpack rations and camp supplies.
"As are we. That will mean a tight alliance, which should keep us all protected." "Well, General, we don't believe there is a peace keeping force. We are as yet an unorganized region. Peace keeping is not meant to be done by one nation. It is meant to be done by the majority, who is interested in its own and other's interests. It is not our right to declare what is right or wrong- it is the right of the majority who hold the best interests of all in mind."

Corporal Jones and Lt.Col Caryle moved into their command building, the bigger house of the houses in town and Lt.Col Caryle said "Casualty Report Corporal Jones." Jones replied crisply "In all 60 dead, 39 wounded, it's a high cost for the dead ones, but in a tactical sense, light for an urban battle." Lt.Col Caryle said "Right, Corporal, I think we should invite the commanders of the 132nd to a dinner tonight with the troops, what do you think?" The Corporal nodded and he said "Fitting to celebrate a first victory against the rebels, right, I'll go find the Sergeant.." He walked down the streets, directing the medics to move the wounded as he went.
General Roberts said "That is what I thought you meant, a wise idea, so we all do the peace keeping in a sense, do you have a name for this alliance yet? Let me guess, Kroandos probably isn't going to join the alliance, am I correct. Good brandy by the way Mr.Albringer.."

"Lieutenant," She said, turning to her communications officer. "Order the IFS Maradur and the IFS Dark Forge into bomardment range of both of the contested border. Then send a message to the Anbian colonial government." She considered for a moment before continuing. "Offer them military aid in exchange for the right to establish a permanent naval base in their waters, as well as a 50% cut of salvage with first choice."

Venice, Italy
The water ways of the Colonial Capital bustled with a population of 25,000 and growing, its populace sailed through the city. And with commerce flowing through the Grand Canal, and into St. Mark's Square, from Sicily to the Swiss Mountains, its importance for Zoingo's Colonial Empire was valued even higher. It also became a center of art and science that could almost rival those cities back in the homeland. And it had not escaped the notice of the crown.
Ca’ Rezzonico, Still in Venice
King Ragnald had spent the last few months in the new colony, Mediterdanica (which consisted of the providences of Italy,Switzerland,Slovenia, and Croatia, like how the natives named them), to make shure that it was properly running and able to leave in hands with the govenor and the House of Commons, the colonial legislature.
"I leave to you, Govenor Hexlem, the safety and security of this colony and with it, its possible bright future, are now in your hands. Do you swear that you will protect the citizens, act as the role model for the Commons, and make the economy strong and profitable?" he asked.
"I will your majesty, on my honor." Hexlem replied.
"Good, I leave you now" the king responded, and was off to catch a boat.
Hexlem sat down in his chair, looked over maps of the colony, and sat down to work.
According to his configurations, the peasants were predominate across Italy and Slovenia while being clustered in cites such as Venice, Rome, Naples, Calagari, & Palamero In Italy and Ljubljana (Le-jub-el-jana) in Slovenia. In Croatia, Zargreb and Mediteranian ports accounted for 2/3 of the population. And in Switzerland, Bern and a few dotted towns in the highlands had most of the territories population.
But he looked north at a region in conflict, in the Czech and Slovakia area, in a blockaded state..............

Cookeslandic Territory,
Europa Conquestada
The Cookes had arrived to where they had stuck out a claim on the continent. They had been rather late on the claiming scene this time so their territory wasn't very large, one could see most of it from a high point in the valley. It appeared to be uninhabited.
It's rugged mountains dissected by narrow valleys were a beautiful sight to behold. This was a secluded and peaceful land. The Cookes who had arrived to survey the lands would begin moving into the valleys soon. Meritxell DeValera had been appointed to head in and set up the new claim. When she first saw it, she was reminded of a language class she had once had in high school. There was a word in that language stuck her mind, the word meant a hidden place and it perfectly fit here.
"We'll call it, Andorra."
Since it was such a small and isolated place she wanted to try and contact other nearby colonies and so sent on to their southern neighbor, a land owned by Aqua Anu.

The boys were scared. They have never seem this many soldiers before, and they were pretty sure they didn't like them. The borders of the new northern nations of the Empire were about to become hell in earth, and the boys were to be the only Zarblese witnesses to the bloodspread.
Raksol, fifteen minutes older than Loskar, had the initiative as always:
"Right, you get the right ones, I get the left", and than the twins were apart. Each one carried a letter with the Imperial seal, and each addressed one side of this conflict.
Both letter read:
"The Council of the Lords of the New Nations have met and, with the authorization of the Emperor, announce: The Zarblese Empire no longer claims the lands of Anoasis Txekis and Slovakai as Imperial territory. Full sovereignity of these lands shall be given to the Kingdom of Anbia. As you read this missive, all Zarblese settlers (except for this messenger and his brother) are already moving to the southern nations of the Empire.
Zarblese Empire asks that this messenger is allowed to go freely and does not wish to be part of any armed conflict at this point. The borders of the Zarblese nations of Otesai and Ungarai are closed to both Anbia and Uir until this conflict is over, and will be open again, if these countries desire, in times of peace."

Getting the hint, he moved spots, away from a window. The one F-84, pulled up away from the missile, which lost the jet and went into the nearby forest. The F-84 fired rockets at the LY300 Manticore Multiple Rocket Systems, and then, as it was somewhat damaged from the small arms fire, the pilot elected to land on the small road, risking capture.
The rebel armored cars drove up just then, but a Calizorinstani hidden man with a bazooka blew up one, and the other took out the other. The rebel troops weren't retreating this time.

The rebel forces charged the 132nd Line, putting all they had into the effort. Corporal Jones got a call from Recon Chopper One that 6 A-1D Skyraiders from the makeshift rebel airforce were on the way, and at the same time Calizorinstani Air Force F-35's were on the scene.
The 15th Infantry advanced on the oncoming rebel forces, and the 8th Armored Division opened fire on the rebels.
The Faxanavians were under fire from the advancing rebels. The current assembled group- the 132nd paratrooper, and the 8th infatry, as well as the 5th armored- pulled back to regroup. They split themselves into a pincer maneuver, the plan being to hit the rebels on both their flanks. Meanwhile, the LY300's continued to act as AA support, while smaller mortars were used to rain an assault upon the rebel forces.

The F-35's then took this chance to fire long range missiles at the enemy A-1 Skyraiders, and that devastated the A-1's, no surviving A-1's escaped.

The Faxanavians continued to move in their two splitting groups, coming in on the left and right flanks until, finally, the order was given. With a loud sound like a thunderclap, they opened fire into the left and right sides of the rebel forces. Panic ensued.

The other soldier would be carrying a silenced DR 87 and wearing a light assault vest filled with a few extra mags just in case of conflict.

The Faxanavian forces began pursuing as well- on foot, and with support from tanks, and the mobile artillery. They blasted away at the rebels with everything the had- artillery, assault rifles, tanks, rocket launchers- everything. They also continued to assail the right and left flanks, pushing the remaining rebels as tightly together as they could. Soon, they would all be trapped.

Avalon/The Two Towers/Sealand
The two towers were monumental, stretching like massive skyscrapers into the sky. The base had to be widened to support them, and here the suboceanic levels had been added. Workers had been brought in from all over to raise the buildings to the height they stood now, one thousand feet. Not the tallest buildings in the world, but still impressive. These skycrapers had various bridges at various points connecting them, reinforcing structural stability.
Suboceanic housing was made in the bottom the towers, as well as in some "bubbles" on the ocean floor. Elevators rose from there to the Oceanic level, were commerce went on, goods were traded, and so forth. Then, as the elevators continued their ascent they arrived at the office space, a brief interlude for the natives. Continuing, there would be found the school levels, and then above that the services. The elevators would then pass the government buildings, then the garment industry, before ending at the communications center. There, the Governor walked back into the elevator, emerging again back at his ocean floor home. The construction had taken time, but now that it was done, Avalon Colony had enough men for a city state.

This shall symbolize the new bond between our nations." he removed from his backpack a bottle of brandy (Faxanavians do like their brandy.) and two collapsing travel glasses. Pouring a liberal quantity for himself and the lieutenant colonel, he raised his glass in a toast.

Lt.Col Caryle nodded and he said "I've ordered the construction of it, should be done in 4 months." He sipped his brandy and he said "Thank you corporal, this is good brandy. What should we call the joint airbase?"
OOC: Cali, just fast forward to our guys approaching the outpost or else it'll take too long. Also, TG Kroando so he knows to respond.

Corporal McGuffin thought for a moment. "Well, since it is to symbolize the new alliance of our two nations, why don't we call it Unity Air Force Base?" (Somehow, the corporal had gained the magical ability to speak in italics.)

Caryle replied "Let it be so, we're making the runway long enough to accomdate tankers, and bombers, and airliners too, it'll be a Joint Use Airport, between civilians and the military of both nations."

OOC: There's one more rebel stronghold, that's the mountain town of Grozjy, 50 miles from San Salvador, and 75 from Vilj. It's kind of the rebel headquarters, like Hitler's Eagles Nest, it's heavily guarded. Not all of the rebels have surrendered.

Lt.Col Caryle said "Yes, but I have a plan.." He unrolled a map of the stronghold, and he said "We're going to inflitrate it, and bypass the defenses, via these tunnels that lead into the stronghold, our special operations teams made them for this one last battle. We're going to rig some dynamite near the ammo magazines underground, run the heck out of their, and blow that joint."
