Official Communique



The Hoply Empire of Zaheran would be interested in closer economic and diplomatic relations between our nations. However, we cannot, for the moment, sign the Peace Treaty as it would force us to give defence guarantees to countries we neither know nor trust. If Clause V is dropped, however, we might consider changing our stance. We would also suggest that you drop Clause III, IV and VI as well, as they have little, if any, effect. Anyway, our application can be found below.

The duels for leadership are a practice of leader guantlent changing on the island of Animalpolis. After a year of a single ruler any citizen can challange the incumbet to a duel, usually to the death. Both parties have to consent to a duel and it must be fought fair and square sword to sword. While it isn't madated that it's a duel to the death it usually is the case.

Very well.
Seeing as it isn't forced by law, and does not have to be to the death, we will appeal your application.

We thank you for accepting our application. As Clause V has been dropped, we are now prepared to sign the Peace Agreement. For your information, democracy has already been tried in Zaheran. It ended with the death of approximately 40 million people. As a result of this, we are now staying away from larger scale social experiments. We do not meddle in the internal affairs of other nations, and we ask you to do the same. If you wish to rid yourselves of your prejudice monarchist states, you are welcome to send an emissary.

Respectfully,
