Congratulations on your recent shift in power. We are always in favor of early retirement for monarchs and elected officials in their stead. Just one question though, if you're a protectorate, which nation is your protector?

The Protectorate Follows the 17th Century English Model by a Member of the houses of Parliament acting in the place of the Monarch eg. Oliver Cromwell

OOC: Maybe you misunderstand, a protectorate is a country which is protected by another larger country. A protectorate is not ruled by someone who carries the title of "Protector" (but I see why you would think that).

Kitteria we would like it if your nations military could occupy our nation. This may sound odd but we need to establish further relations and we have set up a base in your nation. And you could be the first to build an embassy in our nation because we have a green zone that has been deemed safe by the WA inspectors.

I think that's what Kitteria's getting at.)

To tell you the truth our government is considering bombing the small island off the coast of our nation in order to retrieve five SAM missiles stolen by the EL Guerilla forces. We need a bomber plane to use as we have not developed them yet. Would any nations consider letting us commandeer a bomber?
