Item: A Dirolan Greetings.

Dear Head of State,

The Republic of Dirola is a beautiful island-nation, notable for it's peacefulness. A former French colony, the majority of the citizens have French ancestors, but the state language is English. Dirola has many natural resources, including oil, wood and natural gas.

Following The Bill of Foreign Relations 2008, it has been decided for the nation to come of isolation, and enter the international community. We wish to share our 'paradise' with our fellow nations, like you.

We hope that we can begin relations with your nation, whoever it may be, soon.

Yours in Friendship,
President Nikolai Barbeau,
Prime Minister Jean Lemieux,
Foreign Minister Ember Savard.

OOC: Who is the majour oil and natural resource company? Can I have the form to fill out for an embassy?

OOC: Major energy company = Guild. Embassy form = Haven't thought up yet. :p

ooc: wow, I after what I have seen other new players do, this is a refreshing start

Official Communique

The Commonwealth of Zoingo would like to say "Welcome to Nationstates, or II!" to the young nation of Dirola, who has presented themselves in a proper political manner, than just by going out and declaring war on the world. We are highly interested in the tourist potential of Dirola, as well as the natural mineral resources that Dirola contains. As a token of our appreciation, we would like to give The nation of Dirola 1 Billion USD to jumpstart its economy whilst appearing on the international scene. If there were as many peaceful nations as Dirola active in the International Community, foolish wars and squabbles could more easily be delt with.

Your Friends,
Prime Minister Martin Dalons
King Ragnald IV
Minister of International Affairs Francis Pierock
Parliament Head Lord Dunmore

TO: Guild
From: Co-CEO of Belu, Geren & Oranej Dókáreum Petroleum Corporation

We wish to purchase 60% of your company in a bid to save your corporation, its nation of origin and its assets from the wrath of the Griffincrest corporation who tries to monopolise the world's oil industry. We will pay top dollar and allow you to continue on. The difference will be that you will have the support of Uiri as the Uir government owns 7.5% of this corporation by owning another corporation who is a shareholder. We can't guarantee the suppor of Kirav however, it is a joint Uir-Kiravian corporation. Please, save yourself from the personal army of the Griffincrest Corporation.

Item: Zoingo/Dirola.

Dear sir,

We are thankful for your greetings of good will towards our nation. We are extremely thankful for your donation which is being put into to fund a government economy fund. We would live to start relations as soon as possible, along with trade developments. We have started a tourist industry called 'Relatives' which will probably be one of the most popular tourist companies in Dirola. We thank you for your kind comments and hope our nations will become great allies in the near future.

Item: Guild Purchases.

Dear Co-CEO,

We would be happy to have The Geren & Oranej Dókáreum Petroleum Corporation buy 60% of our company in a bid to save us from Griffencrest. We have realised that they pose a large threat to us and we will enjoy having your company backing us. Guild is a private company, and we have decided to permit The Geren & Oranej Dókáreum Petroleum Corporation to buy a share of us.

From: Co-CEO of Belu, Geren & Oranej Dókáreum Petroleum Corporation

How much shall we have to pay?

OOC: Dirola, are you really about to give Uiri a controlling share of your energy companies?

From: Guild Energy CEO.
To: Co-CEO of Belu, Geren & Oranej Dókáreum Petroleum Corporation.
Subject: Guild Purchase.

Dear Co-CEO,

Forgive me for not stating the price in my last message. Guild, onj the international market, is small, so 6-10 million Dirolan Nationals would be enough. We are confident that you agree this is a good asking price for Guild.

Thierry Clement.

OOC: its myself and Kirav actually. And other shareholders who altogether have a minor share.
IC:

TO: Guild
From: Co-CEO of Belu, Geren & Oranej Dókáreum Petroleum Corporation

We shall give you 12 million Dirolan nationals, or 200,000 nationals per 1% which means we expect dividends of 600 000 nationals total. What is the exchange rate to the USD?

OOC: Dirola, are you really about to give Uiri a controlling share of your energy companies?

OOC: 1. With this, another one will rise (Afflation). It's all in a greater scheme, friend. :p

From: Secutary of State Theresa Green, Republic of the Battlehawk

Greetings and Welcome to the International state. The ROTB wishs you good luck in your endeavoues and wishs to donate a sum of 50,000 USD, Alas this is all we can spare as we are in a costly war with the State of Aios. We wish to know if embassy and trade oppertunities are avaiable between our states. I personaly would like to visit your nation on an official visit. Please get back to me

OOC: Dirola, you may have missed this.

You do realize I will attempt to buy out the one which pops up too, right?

ooc: I recommend you back out now, Dirola. once you sell your major company, new companies won't be able to start up, and from a realistic standpoint he'll have a major stake in your nation.

(Imagine if all the Arab and South American nations refused to sell to the US.)

OOC: Would y'all stop assuming its my nation buying that corporation. Do you not see the thread 'Belu, Geren & Oranek Dókáreum Petroleum Corporation is formed.'? Its a corporation which was created from two other petroleum corporations one from my nation one from Kirav and 20% of its stake is for sale on the stock market. Its a corporation which either Kirav or I can RP and it isn't even wholly owned by our citizens for foreign stock traders can buy it. It is one corporation which is technically nation-neutral buying a controlling share in a Dirolan corporation. And if the Dirolan corporation's market share is less than 75-80%, new corporations can realistically start-up.

ooc: I recommend you back out now, Dirola. once you sell your major company, new companies won't be able to start up, and from a realistic standpoint he'll have a major stake in your nation.

From: Dirolan Presidency.
To: Battlehawk Secretary of State.
Item: Relations.

Our nation is thankful for your kind greertings and your donation, which has been put into a government economic plan. Dirola will not interfere in the Battlehawk/Aios Conflict, but we will still ally with the ROTB.

I would like to meet either you, Mrs. Green, or President of the ROTB Daniel Clarke at Tren'Ler for discussions. We hope you agree and we can begin as soon as possible.

President Nikolai Barbeau.


OOC: Considering Guild. Expect decision tomorrow.

TO: Guild
From: Co-CEO of Belu, Geren & Oranej Dókáreum Petroleum Corporation

We do believe that you already agreed to allow us to buy a share of your company. You accepted our earlier offer and thus we formed a contract and we had even negotiated a price - 12 million Dirolan nationals. We made a contract and if you back out now, it is breach of contract which is illegal. We are sorry but you cannot back out now, or we shall sue you.

OOC: I see you edited the quoted part of your post out. We already formed a contract, you can't back out without risking being sued for a large sum of money for we did not intend to sell our stake for a very long time. Upwards of 10 years.

OOC: Not strictly true as nothing has been signed

ooc: I won't say "I told you so", but...

Right now I'd recommend reneging on your decision outright and then survive whatever onslaught comes the best you can. maybe more big nations will feel sorry for you and step in.

OOC:

The Battlehawk - A contract does not have to be signed. It is an agreement between two parties. There is such a thing as an oral contract which is as legal bindin as a written contract the problem being he said she said. The correspondence is record, they agreed to let us buy a share of their company.

Tanuri - We'd sue for 10-20 years worth of dividends. We stated that we expected 600 000 Dirolan nationals per dividend and there are 3-5 dividends a year and thus we can expect anywhere between 18 and 60 million Dirolan nationals in compensation. They said they were small and so 6-10 million was 60% of their company. 100% of their company is 10 - 17 million. They would go bankrupt more likely than not.

OOC: Hold on, wasn't this thread supposed to be for greetings? I'm taking Tanuri's position. Sue us, go on. Hell, how much you want?

ooc: What I meant was that they not pay up- there's no court that can force them. Then they hope they don't get destroyed or blacklisted.

ooc: he just said how much he wanted... and you'd go broke unless you printed a lot more money, which would murder you with inflation

OOC: Dirola - How many dividends do you give out every year?

Tanuri - the Contract is a universal concept.

EDIT: Its a corporation. It can't print more money. Honestly, it would file for bankruptcy most likely scenario.

Official Communique

Minister Savard,
Your thanks are not needed, all developing countries start somewhere and yours is no exeption, because tomorrows markets may just be in your nation. Our merchant companies are highly interested in the potential status of trade with Dirola, and relations can begin at any time. If possible, maybe an arrangement of a meeting can be made between our 2 countries to hammer out trade agreements as well as establishing a non-agression pact? We await a response from Dirola, and it seems that being allies in the future is a prospect that is not far off.

Signed,
Forign Minister Francis Pièrock

Additinal Commuication

To: Dirolian Presidency
From: Theresa Green

We have been monitering your troubles with the nation of Uiri and we feel this is a internation disgrace and render our assisitance in this matter, by any means

OOC: Dirola - How many dividends do you give out every year?

Tanuri - the Contract is a universal concept.

EDIT: Its a corporation. It can't print more money. Honestly, it would file for bankruptcy most likely scenario.

ooc: my mistake, i thought you might sue the nation. bad judgement there. still if their govt decided to protect them...

and lying and cheating are also universal concepts.:)

OOC: ....Oh to hell with it. We sign or whatever **** you wanna go through. By the way, can I clean up all this crap? So far, 3 people have actually greeted the nation.

OOC: The Battlehawk, it has nothing to do with my nation. Why would your government monitor transmissions between corporations?

Tanuri - no, we are suing the corporation. How can we sue a nation?

Dirola - I get control either way, one way I get 60%, the other I get 100%. Also, I have been waiting for an embassy form.

OOC: Stop bickering. Please, greet my godamned nation!

ooc: so now you're screwed. then again, you were screwed ever since you first agreed to do it.

could I try selling your nation solar panels and windmills?

OOC: Dirola, did you agree or not? I need an IC communication which atleast responds to the communication asking for the exchange rate. I'll delete the bickering posts once I'm clear. Also, how would ANYONE know ICly?

OOC: You know what? I'm tired of this game already. All's I wanted was a bit of trade and 'hey'. Instead, I sign a little contract and everybody suddenly is interested.
I'm gone. Goodbye.

OOC: I was under the impression it was a Offiical Govermant Communicque and as such can be monitered

ooc:I thought this was supposed to lead to trade and interest, Dirola.

OOC: The Battlehawk - Did you see http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k155/Uiri/seal.gif? With that many communications, if it was really official government stuff, I would've used it atleast once.

ooc: guys, either greet Dorola Ic'ly or get out...

ooc: guys, either greet Dorola Ic'ly or get out...

OOC: Thank you. Sanity has arrived! :hail::hail::hail:

Tanuri, I meant 'so, how the hell does a small island's economy affect you?'. I don't think America would give one toss if Solomon Islands signed a trade deal.

OOC: Ok, I'm still it, the Visit and all that

ooc: I am waiting for the embassy form and I am still confused as to what went down with the BG&O DP Corp deal with Guild. Once the confusion is clear I am out of this thread for good with the exception of greeting Dirola.

OOC: Thank you. Sanity has arrived! :hail::hail::hail:

Tanuri, I meant 'so, how the hell does a small island's economy affect you?'. I don't think America would give one toss if Solomon Islands signed a trade deal.

ooc: whoa whoa whoa! I don't need to be hailed, your not protectorate......(yet ;))

OOC: Thank you. Sanity has arrived! :hail::hail::hail:

Tanuri, I meant 'so, how the hell does a small island's economy affect you?'. I don't think America would give one toss if Solomon Islands signed a trade deal.

well, now that you've signed your nation's resources over to another nation, we see a chance for business.

OOC: He did not sign his nation's resources over to ANY nation.

EDIT: Sorry. Just needed to clarify that.

ooc: I suggest to Dirola that a meeting thread be established....I can host if that is possible...

ooc: he gave a foreign company the controlling stake in his nation's energy industry. that reduces his own independence.

The nation of Tanuri greets Dirola and wishes it a successful future.
