The Fall of an Empire

ooc: For those of you who knew the country of Kroando, pay attention. Kroando no longer exists as a country on nationstates. He was in the process of invading my country when he quit, so this rp will focus on my country finding out why the Kroandon troops pulled out and why the country has fallen into complete silence/solitude.

IC:

The sun rose over the horizon for the first time in months. The smoke from the burning city of New Hilingrad had finally drifted away. The generals were confused. Why would the Kroandon's pull out just as they were starting to move inland? They would find out in the coming weeks... but first it was time to bury the dead. Hundred's of thousands of Kyan troops died in the conflict, and you would be hard pressed to find a family in Logan and Ky that wasnt somehow affected by the brief but bloody Kroandon war, whether it be by a dead relative, a destroyed home, or otherwise.

New Hilingrad, Logan and Ky's oldest and second largest city, lay in ruins. Ballistic missiles, napalm strikes, artillery bombardments, and high explosives turned the once mighty city into a burning pile of rubble. Slowly but surely, the first advance teams since the Kyan retreat began moving into the city.

"This is disgusting," said the Corporal Alexei Golubev through a gas mask as he and his squad made their way through the destroyed streets.

It was now mid november, and New Hilingrad lies just above the arctic circle. As such, the 400,000 bodies in the city were now frozen in place. Destroyed tanks and other vehicles lay strewn about the street randomly. It was almost as if the weather had frozen the battle itself.

The first advance teams were now moving across the city. Suddenly, to their surprise, they heard gunshots. Two squads quickly ran in the direction of the shots. The soldiers gasped as they saw several wounded Kroandon soldiers, one unable to stand, engaged in a firefight with a Kyan deadbolt (an elite sniper/supersoldier). The advance teams closed in around the Kroandon's and quickly ordered them to throw down their weapons, which they did. The advance teams soon learned that scenarios like this had been happening ever since the official end of the war a month ago, and that the city of New Hilingrad was now a hellhole for the survivors within it.

Most Kyan troops had left during the great retreat, but thousands of wounded soldiers had been left behind, as well as hundreds of snipers that had been intended to assasinate Kroandon officials. The Kyan advance teams were now appalled to learn of the conditions in the city. Many wounded Kroandon's had been left in the city as well when the Kroandon's pulled out. The stragglers, most of them wounded, had been killing each other as well as trying to survive since the city was abandoned. Many people had turned to cannibalism and other nasty things to survive.

Antartika- 2 months later

Hundreds of freighter turned military ships now tried to break through the thick ice to get to the shore of Kroando's home country. Sattelite images of the Kroandon's mega cities showed no people on the streets. The grand Kroandon navy was left abandoned in their various colonial ports. The thousands of Kroandon tanks and planes lay immoble. Most noticeable of all was that not a single person was manning KODS, the Kroandon's impenitrable missile defence system. This was tested with the launching of a single non nuclear ballistic missile at Kroando's shore. Normally these would be taken down in a second, but this one was not. Logan and Ky could destroy all of Kroando at any moment, but instead choose to find out why one of the most powerful countries on earth was essentially dead.

As they first Kyan soldiers stepped onto the frigid shores, they wondered what would await them... and what they, or it, would do.

OOC: When a nation is deleted, that nation is retconed. So there wouldn't be a Homeland to go to. Your Country goes back to what it was like before you ever heard of him.

ooc: I suppose that makes sense, but come on now. Kroando plays a huge part in the history of my country, starting from way back when I was just started on NS and his illegal nuclear dumping nearly started an international crisis. To say that my country goes back to the way it was before I ever heard Kroando will basically force me to rewrite/delete half of my countries history. Besides, im not going to benefit from this rp in any way. Im not taking over his homeland or anything like that. I dont see what's wrong with a little originality...

OOC: Check out me Reclamation of Juventud thread, I am taking back a colony from his possession, so consider this my governments interest in finding out why Kroando fell apart.

as for 1010102's comment, he was far to active a player to just erase from history, so of course we got to give him a grand farewell...

TO: The Government of Logan and Ky


We are willing to offer an aide package to you consisting of one trillion dollars, This money was meant to Kroando as part of our peace treaty of Juventud, but after the fall of Kroando, we feel you will need this money a lot more.
Also if you would like Mokan Construction crews and engineers can be flown in to assist your rebuilding efforts.

Thank you

Official message to Mokastana

Thank you very much for this generous gift. The money will be put to good use, over 7 million people lost their homes in this war. I would like to deny your offer to send Mokan construction crews, however, as my people need to stay busy. Many, many people have lost their jobs, and they need to feel some sort of worth. We all know how hard being unemployed can be on a man trying to support a family.

Antartika-day 1

A single diplomat and a squad of soldiers walked through the city of Scolar (ooc: is that how Kroando spelled it?). The soldiers were of the Black Mask Kyan elite... they carried light machine guns and wore heavily armoured body suits. They also donned gas masks, as they hadnt yet ruled out the possibililty of a chemical attack.

The diplomat was there in case their were still Kroandon's left alive in the city. Although it seemed highly unlikely that there was any sort of leadership left.

The soldiers turned down a dark alley... and there they finally saw what they had been waiting for. A rotting corpse lay near a dumpster. The soldiers could barely tell because of how bloated and maggot encrusted the body was, but from what they could make out he was a middle aged man. He had a large cross clutched in his right hand and he was appeared to have died while praying profusely. His body was covered in dry blood.

A scientist was called to the scene. Upon autopsy, it was revealed that the man had died several weeks ago of blood loss caused by some unknown disease. The basic diagnosis was that the man had bled continuously through his pores, and that he for some reason was unable to eat properly. The man appeared very malnourished. All this deeply disturbed the scientist, who sent his report back to the Kyan base. Upon recieving the report, anyone who came into contact with the body was ordered into quarantine, and it was determined that anyone going into Scolar from that point on would have to wear a full bio-suit.

The next foray into Scolar took place the very next day. A full plattoon of regular legion troopers plus a few scientists went door to door, finding most of them locked or even barred shut. Finally, the soldiers kicked down the entrance to a warehouse. The scene within made several of them retch. The whole placed was filled with bodies. Every square inch of the place was covered in blood and human waste. Even more disturbing was the fact that, upon examination, it was discovered that these people had killed themselves with knives and daggers and handguns. One person was even found with the sharpened end of a broom handle half stuck in his chest. This was a mass suicide...

Finally the soldiers began exiting the building. One person was left behind to collect blood samples... and while doing so he heard a voice.

"You will burn... You will burn..."

I understand what you mean, you people need to this for themselves. However if you need food supplies or construction equipment, anything at all, feel free to ask. Helping you is an honor for both me and the Mokan People.
