Uranium Needed - Trade and Diplomacy

The nation of Totemic needs uranium for the construction of nuclear power plants and in rare cases nuclear weapons. We do not plan to use weapons unless aggravated by another nation. These will be used only to settle disputes.

The Protected Colony of The Lupine People still has vast untapped rich supplies of urnaium to be mined. Many of these have not been claimed by the current naitons who have staked claims here. Your nation is welcome to negotiate with the tribe to begin mining ops.

To: Totemic
From: The Allied States of New Kereptica
Concerning: Sale of Uranium

The Allied States of New Kereptica will sell you uranium on the condition that you discontinue your nuclear arms program.

OOC: Your defense budget is not nearly enough to consider a nuclear program. It cost the US 250 billion $ to construct it's arsenal, and with you defense budget of 44.6 billion, you would have to spend all of your defense budget for over 5 years to build up an arsenal. That is discounting of course the maintenance costs of such weapons, which would number in the tens of billions per year for all the weapons themselvs, and the infrastructure required to keep them viable.

OOC: I'm not trying to blow your bubble, but ahve you read the International Incidents Sticky Guides? A common rule around here is no nukes for nations below 100 million.

IC:
The People's Republic of Falkasia is greatly disturbed by the fact that you wish to procure uranium to use in constructing "limited" nuclear weapons, as well as nuclear powered fission and/or fusion reactors. Too further our worries, it is also well known that your country is run by a dictator, who over the years has made numerous comments that have become a cause of worry among the international community. However, considering the fact that you are a small nation and are liekly building the generators for the good of your people, we will not (for the time being) press this any farther. However, we will be keeping an eye on you from now on to make sure nothing dangerous comes of these nuclear programs.

Marquess reacquired possessions in the uranium industry and has begun selling uranium at the price of USD$23.75 per pound, negotiable. The prices are expected to increase over the next few months, so potential buyers are encouraged to do so as soon as possible.

Marquess contracts state that their uranium may not under any circumstances be used in the creation of nuclear weaponry and will immediately cease all operations inside of and with the offending nation, as they are bound by law to do by the Most Serene Noble Republic of Santheres. The Most Serene Noble Republic of Santheres will as well cease its trade with the offending nation for an indefinite period of time.

Should this term be acceptable, negotiations may commence. May your future shine brighter.

OOC: And I'll note that you're still far away from being allowed nuclear weapons. Population 100 million is, I believe, the minimum.

[OOC: There is no "rule." 100 million is the general minimum limit, but there is no set rule stating that you absolutely cannot have nukes below 100 million. Look at the DPRK; it's dirt-poor, has only 23 million people, but has nukes.]

OOC: You're right, sounds like a mad doctor from a cartoon. Never really played a dictatorship nation before. Any tips are appreciated.

Thank you very much, we are now open for trade.

The Protected Colony of The Lupine People still has vast untapped rich supplies of urnaium to be mined. Many of these have not been claimed by the current naitons who have staked claims here. Your nation is welcome to negotiate with the tribe to begin mining ops.

We are opening our doors, and are ready to trade when you are. Thank you very much.

Agreed. I was foolish, and agree that our nation does not have the budget to support a nuclear arms program. I am raising the taxes in my nation. Thanks for the trades.

To: Totemic
From: The Grand World Order Department of Internal Control, Nuclear Material Division

The government of the Grand World Order is willing to establish the trade of nuclear material to your nation, as long as Totemic follows non/anti communistic policies and will use the material in a safe way.

TO: Totemic
FROM: Emperya

Will allow you to purchase Uranium from our mining industries under the condition that you open your markets to us wholly. That is, your government will place no restrictions and/or tariffs on goods your country imports from Emperya. Also, you must agree never to use any nuclear weapons against Emperya or her allies, even in times of war.

OOC: but there's no guarantee that someone new won't say "Hey, I got uranium, so now I have nukes!" Better to try to nip that in the bud.

IC:

The Marquess Corporation will commence shipping once you agree to our prices and wire the money. We are aware that others may be interested in your market and will do what it takes to undercut the competition and provide your nation with the very best product.

Why settle for blackmail, cultural imperialism, or cession of property?

To Keith Teeple,

We would be willing to offer you much Uranium, and Plutonium, free of charge. However, before we can do that, I wish to meet with you, personally, to discuss such things. Bring some of your leading nuclear technicians, and we can discuss the future of your nuclear power program, and the far off possibilities of a nuclear weapons program.
