Look Inc. is interested in opening refineries in Bardar. We wish to have guards from our company placed there, since there will be an intruder soon.

Any nation willing to open refineries in Bardar are welcome to do so. Our glorious nation is very interrested in any measure that can boost our economy. When it comes to security I'm sure the Royal Mountain Brigades and the Flying Leopard Brigades are enough to scare away all enemy nations, trying to steal our oil, it was after all they who chased way the opressors and gave our people the independent we deserve.

Bardar, I seriously do not think that your standing forces, no matter how well equiped wouldn be a match for the griffincrest corporation. The corporation are know to be marauders who maintain a tight grip on international oil wells.

I suggest for the sake of your nation, you do as we do and keep the oil state owned and to yourselves. Anything other that this will result will in serious rammifications that most nations of rater large size either fail to get involved in or refuse to get involved in...

For instance, even if the exetonian military was at full strength, going against griffincrest would be a significant drain on Exetonian resources and result in an inexcusable loss of life whilst Griffincrest could just hire more manpower and replace lost assests.

We also request permission to build military bases near our drilling areas, as a deterrent to the inevitable threat posed by the Blackhelm Confederacy. In return, we offer military aid and weapons in case you are attacked, as well as a share of any oil we drill. Consider this offer well, as it would be extremely beneficial to you to have these ties with us.

Under strict orders from President Gregor Venkov, Volzgrad would like to establish several oil refineries in your nation. Volzgrad is currently having an oil crisis and any amount of oil is precious to us. All of the refineries will be built by Volzgradien engineers and will be guarded by The National Volzgradien Gvardia. All upkeep costs and inspections will be paid for by the Volzgradien government. All the oil pumped from our derriks will be sent back to Volzgrad by tankers from the nearest port city. Thank you for reading this letter, and please accept our humble offer.

Any nation willing to open refineries in Bardar are welcome to do so. Our glorious nation is very interrested in any measure that can boost our economy.

I open this contact on behalf of the goverment of Belschaft and a number of other corparations we have formed a group with, including several well known Multi-Nationals. We wish to purchase a 50% share of the oilfields, including a exclusivity pact agreeing that you will sell only 10% to any other intrested patry. As part of the deal we will cover 75% of the development and production costs for the first 2 years, 60% for the following four years and then a even 50/50 split of the costs from that point. As part of the deal profits will be split evenly between the two of us, unless either sells shares to another gorup, in which case the share of profits will be adjusted to represent shares held.

We wish to offer a total of $150,000,000,000 for 50% of the shares in the oilfield, payable over 8 years. Payment will be in a mixture of currency, bassed on flucuating values, and other assets, mainly gold. We belleive this is a fair valuation of the oilfields, though we are open to negotiations.

This is the kind of an offer too good to refuse. Th royal government will immidiately start negotiations with the nation of Belshaft and the Northstar Corparation.

When it comes to these Griffincrest wierdos, if they attack they should know that they attack a mountainous country full of warriors. If we mobilize our reserves 14% of our population would be in uniform, even more, essentially we are a nation of freedom fighters, we fought our former opressors for decades, and if Griffincrest arrive, they will have to expect some bloody decades. In war every man, woman and child i Bardar is a soldier ready to fire a gun. If Griffincrest arrive we will give them hell.

However, we hope to live in peace with the other nation states and develop our economy. That's why we will cooperate with richer nations with good and fair intentions, like Belshaft and the Northstar Corparation. We accept the terms of the Belshaft government and hope this will be the beginning of a long- term friendship.

Your Majesty,

New Chalcedon is not interested in oilfields - we rely on sustainable power. We simply wished to congratulate your nation upon attaining it's freedom. In addition, as we presume that Bardar is (largely) a desert land, We offer to sell Bardar solar power cells and panels. This technology could be paid for in oil transfers (we don't need much, but "not mucn" is not "none") from Bardar to New Chalcedon, if Bardar is interested. The main advantage to Bardar is that once such panels have been purchased, Bardar can sell more of its oil on the world markets, which are paying top currency for them right now. Please consider Our offer.

The Holy Republic of Yakana
His Holiness’s Department of Economics and Trade
International Trade – Oil and Rock

The Holy Republic of Yakana is interested in working out a deal with the parties of “the Government of Bardar”, “The Northstar Corporation” and “the Government of Belshaft”.

By order his His Holiness of the Holy Republic of Yakana, under the advice of the Office of the Ambassador of the Holy Republic; His Holiness’s Department of Economics and Trade hereby requests to form a deal under the following terms below.

Seeing as how a 50% stake has been bought out by the Northstar Corporation and the Government of Belshaft, The Holy Republic of Yakana would like to request to partake in the deal in 15% of this 50% share. Under terms outline by the High Ambassador, The Holy Republic is willing to pay the Northstar Corporation 20% of the original cost of the 50% stake of $150,000,000,000 for 15% shares. Thus leaving the total shares fully owned by Northstar and the Government of Belshaft to be 35%.

The Holy Republic of Yakana will also be responsible for its share of the development at the 20% rate of the 15% shares. The Holy Republic of Yakana will bring in a firm to work along side of The Northstar Corporation in harvesting the oil as well as security firms.

We will also be willing to discuss a certain percentage of oil to go backinto the Government of Belshaft.

We hope this will be seen as a prosperous agreement to the following parties.

The Holy Republic of Yakana

Belschaft and the Northstar Corporation, while appreciating your offer, would prefer to hang on to our shares for this time. We have recently suffered a national outbreak of the GREY DEATH virus and our internal economy is suffering, so we increasing foreign investments. However, several other nations have established their own refineries and derricks, with Bardar's permission. I am sure they will allow you too do so as well. However we request that 20% of all profit is given to us and the Bardarian government, split by shares, as payment for the lease. We expect other nations already establishing facilities to do so as well.


Message to all nations establishing facilities in Bardar -

20% of all profit is given to us and the Bardarian government, split by shares, as payment for the lease we have issued to you for the field use. This is reasonable.

Also, please co-operate with other nations establishing their own facilities, and recognize their stakes to land.

Due to suspicous movements from Griffincrest agents the nation of Bardar has deployed the reserves. In a short time our glorious nation will once again be ready for battle, in case a new opressor will arrive. As a nation of freedom fighters the kingdom of Bardar is not afraid of a long conflict. We are ready to fight for centuries. Our people are not afraid of death, we faced death and suffering every day in our fight against our opressors. With 14 % of our population mobilized we will have a fighting force with 2,5 million men and women in uniform. Guerilla warfare is the only tactic we know, and unlike any invader we konow our mountainious terrain. There are no good roads or any other infrastructure in use that any invading army can use, due to our war against our opressors, and these that exist are torn down as a preventive measure. Neither are we afraid to use the scorched eath tactic, we have used it plenty of times before.

Griffincrest, if yoiu want war you have got one, if you want blood, you certainly will get it.

OOC; You can't invade from the sea btw, Bardar is a land locked nation.

The kingdom of Bardar is quite ready to open negotiations with The Holy Republic of Yakana, with the cooperation of the nation of Belschaft and the Northstar Corparation of course.

However, due to our preparation for war aginst the Griffincrest bastards we will not be able to resume negotiations before these lunatics have backed down. Also unexpected things might happen in war, and therefor Bardar won't negotiate any furhter before the conflict is solved.

OOC: Since when can you drill oil out of mountains?

OOC: since there acctually is soft soil deep in our valleys.

Mobilization of reserves completed! The whole armed force of Bardar now are ordered to take their strategic positions in the mountains. Still waiting for Blackhelm response. Every breach of our sovereignity will mean war.

The Esparadan Revolutionary Army is extremely well trained in guerrilla and anti-occupation warfare and, since most soldiers in it are veterans of El Revolucion, it is battle hardened too. If you are attacked, you will have it's full force behind you.

Yours Sincerely,

the newly independent kingdom of Bardar do not want hostile relation with any other nations, but nations like Call to Power and Griffincrest, lead by greedy socialists and foreigners, all conspiring to steal the national resources of our nation make it hard to have a peaceful diplomatic strategy, since we well know that these revolutionary bastards would immidiately invade and slaughter our brave people, just liker our former opressors.

Since it's clear that the Griffincrest company are run by a bunch of leftist cowards and hippies, the kingdom do not consider them as the worst threat to our national security any more, but remain mobilized to tackle any invasion attempt from the Soviet Republic of Call to Power, which is run by fat, corporate leading millionares, who are all really socialist scum, and who openly worship false gods. The glorious nation of Bardar do not want a conflict with any other nation, but will fight any invader until death. If there will be war it won't be over tomorrow, it won't be over next year, it will drag on for centuries, and our glorious nation will win in the end.

The main reason why the glorious kingdom of Bardar did not accept the deal presented by Call to Power was because it looked more like a take over, thaqn a honest bid for cooperation. The newly independent nation of Bardar will only cooperate with nations that are willing to treat our nation as an equal. The kingdom of Bardar also laugh at the demand that our glorious, allmighty andallknowing monarch should abdicate. That's like demanding the moon to turn green. The pride nation of Bardar won't submit to blackmail by any other nation.

Open Letter to the world

The Socialist Empire of Exetonia will be monitoring this very closely. We find the actions of the Griffincrest corperation abhorrent and the calls by the Republic of Call to Power laughable considering any military action at this point in time would likely bring their nation to complete economic ruin.

We will not get involved unless help is requested by the proud nation Bardar and we wish them well. This is partly due to the fact that the Exetonian military is currently in no fit state to take any action and also that any drawn out conflict could be painfull to our booming economy.

The Northstar corparation is horrified at the agresive stance of our partner, the goverement of Bardar. We wish to appologise to anyone insulted by them, and remind our partner that there is no reason to provoke the Griffincrest corparation.

Similarly, we remind Call to Power that the Bardarian oil fields are a joint venture, and any action against our holdings will be seen as an action against us, and our backers internationally. We will take any action needed to gaurentee the security of intrests.

Furthermore we wish to state that our Bio-Wepon program is purely defensive, following the MAD principle.

Under authorization of Badar, the Cazelian government has deployed the 4th and 12th MEF, with an additional force of the 6th fleet and the 53rd Armoured.

Sincerley,
James Hogart
~President

The kingdom of Bardar will not be scared by the voices of socialist cowards. All foreign troops on our territory (except those of our new ally Cazelia) will be seen as an invading force and will immidiately be anhiliated by the brigades of the Bardar armed force. with all reserves mobilized Bardar will have an army of 2,5 million men and women in uniform (compulsary military service for both men and women). Furthermore, most villages are full of weapons from the War of Liberation, and in truth, no Bardarian is really a civilian. Most people still posess the spirit of the Liberation War and will not move an inch from fighting a new one. The last war took 32 years, our nation is able to fight even longer this time.

Your sincerely; Patriarch Asmaloch of the church of Bardar, Prime Minister in the royal government.

TO: Open letter to the sovereign government of Bardar.
FROM: His Imperial and Serene Majesty, Michael VI of New Chalcedon.
Re: Conduct.

Your Excellencies,

It is with regret that we note the poor conduct of the newly-sovereign government of Bardar. Issuing insults to other nations, who simply wish to take advantage of the invitation issued by the government of Bardar, is not a good way to ensure a peaceful existence with the international community.

We must regretfully, given the likelihood of armed conflict in the area, withdraw our offer of solar-power technology to Bardar.

We offer the Kingdom of Bardar this advice: issue an apology, and explain that the poor conduct was the result of inexperience in international relations. Assure the various nations watching that something like this will not happen again.

Yours,
Michael VI,
Empror and Lord of New Chalcedon,
Grand Duke of Constantinopolis Secundus,
etc., etc., etc.

Ooc: I think if I have your two nations go at it with heavy support provided to Revolutionary Esparada it will be a fairer fight and less me just steamrolling

Message to: Lt. Taliz of the Republic of Revolutionary Esparada
From: The Republic of Call to Power

We congratulate you on distancing yourself from such tyrants; however, I may remind you that this King poses a threat to the security of all of us and needs to be crushed before he can build sufficient arms to make real his threats.

We have recognized that the citizens of the Kingdom of Bardur have recently thrown of the shackles of a foreign oppressor and may turn to view our troops in the same light, so for our operations we must propose a military alliance to topple the nation’s monarchy and work to create a new government. We will provide complete sea and air domination followed by extensive logistical and monetary support but ask that your forces make up the majority of the boots on the ground in any land operation that may take place.

Yours Thankfully
President Brown

Agreed.

The kingdom of Bardar will not be scared by the voices of socialist cowards.

To: Government of Bardar and other involved parties
From: Czar Ptolemy I
Subject: Repeated insults

The Bardarian government refuses to back down on this issue. They have not issued an apology nor have they made any indication towards wanting to resolve this situation peacefully. West Corinthia desires to maintain the moral high ground of this issue by again requesting that the leader of Bardar declare a public apology and reform his policies.

To Bardar itself, you must realize that you are incapable of defending yourself against the forces now aligned against you. Even with your "2.5 million soldiers," you need to recognize that the West Corinthian standing peacetime army is about 150 million men. These Corinthians are armed with technologies which your country is far from being able to develop and many of them are skilled veterans of past conflicts. Your military, even with civilian resistance, would be incapable of withstanding a Corinthian assault for more than a few weeks.

We are not at all implying that it is our desire to invade you. We are stressing to you that you are in a very vulnerable position and you seem to be digging yourself into a deeper hole with each communication. Change your ways before it is too late.

Signed,
Czar Ptolemy I

The government of Bardar see no need to apologize. First these Griffincrest weirdos threaten to invade our country for our oil, which they obviously didn't dared to do, then the socialist government of Call to Power suddenly demand that our beloved monarch should resign. These outrageous demands leave us no choice than to prepare for a foreign invasion. It's not that we wanted it, it's just that evil foreign countries had decided to invade us no matter what we say or do. Our nation is used to suffering, some more decades of war is nothing. We just keep in mind the wisdom of the prophet Jesus Muhammed Krishna, and remember freedom is allways worth dying for.

Yours sincerely; Patriarch Asmaloch of the church of Bardar, Prime Minister in the royal government.
