Seeing that Peaceful games were an good Idea, The Ryous were soon thinking of a world Game Festival, one that would premote world Peace. The Ryous knew of The Olympic games, but The Ryous had another idea.

From 582 BC to AD 394, The City of Corinth held what were called The Isthmian Games, also known as The Corinthian Games, were held every Two Years. This would be good, since both Modern Ryou Black Islands and Ancient Corinth were Naval Powers.

Soon Empress Isabella sent a World wide message to all Nations.

To All Nations of The World.

The Grand Empire of The Ryou Black Islands declares that It will restart the Ancient Isthmian Games. Knowing that Sports are a good way to Premote Peace, It seeks to help peace along.

The Ryous were to soon restart the Isthmian Games soon.

OOC: For Nations entering The Games (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=556281)

We would like to inquire what sorts of games are present.

We in the Shazbotdom Empire do not care for these "games". Stop. These games are just stupid in our oppinion. Stop. A nation that is going to try and take over nations just to expand it's 'empire' shouldn't host games of peace. Stop. Therefore these games are boycotted in the Shazbotdom Empire. End of Message.

Empress Issabella of The Empire of The Ryou BLack Islands

Coming from the mouth of the Evil Satanic Dictator Empress Isabella the word "peace" is as likely as seeing a DoubleWidevillian praise Islam. For over the past year the only types of things to happen to Ryou were violent things, wars, and unjustified bounties. Along with those there came the moaning and bitching as another stood up. I do not feel that anyone should enter these games as they are hosted by a Satanic Nation and a warmongering one at that. There is no such thing as peace in Ryou, on war and lies. You attacked a peaceful nuertal nation, Roma V, because of the actions of another and we blew you out of the water, literally. You attempts any crap on me because of these statements and the Grestonian Navy won't hesitate to do it again.

To The Ryou Empire


The Boranesian Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Union would like to know the exact rules of the different Martial Arts and Test of Strength disciplines in these games.

For many years, Boranesia has been renowned for its skilled Brazilian Jiu Jitsu-fighters, and the privately owned Boranesian Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Union would be happy to send its best fighters to compete in the games, if the rules are fitting to our demands.

If you have any questions, don't be free to contact us.


See you on the mat.
Federico Soza, Vice Chairman, TBBJJU.

Just for all to know, The Isthmian Games will not be used as a Platform for Raceist, Political or Religious Ideas. Nor will they be used for propaganda.

and No Dopeing.

aka: No Repeats of Nazi Germany, The US Boycot of The Moscow Games, or East German Dopeing.

What is the policy on Geneticly modified superhumans competing in the games?

The Same as being Doped up.

The Games are to be fair, No Steroids, Genetic Modifcation or any Thing that is more like Cheating.

Note: Furries are Still Allowed of course :)

That counts most of Belschafts athletes out then.

OOC: a Side Note, FT and Fantasy Tech Nations can enter the Games if They wish.

Latest News: Questers has pulled out of the Bid to be Host City for the Isthmian Games

You say furries are accepted so we feel it should be safe to assume our kind would be accepted as well. We of Carnelian Island would certainly like to participate in these games.

OOC well that count out FT and Fantasy Tech

OOC well that count out FT and Fantasy Tech

(Not really, just because someone is from a diffrent planet or can use magic doesn't mean they have super abilities)

OOC well that count out FT and Fantasy Tech

It won't count out FT and Fantasy

OOC: Hopefully no repeats of the Munich incident either.

bump

In response to our exclusion from the games due to the racist bigotry of Ryou and their irational fear of the superior capabilities of Belschafts athletes, who are of a new, superior race, we hearbye promise 12 Munich's shall occur!!! And one brighton Hotel. But this time we'll get thatcher.
