Anybody who commits theft can be punished by hard time, usually for many years.

Culturally speaking, Living Freedom Land has many international robbers in the movies. Usually the good guy spends his time tracking an international jewel thief down, and the good guy usually wins. The international robber is seen as somewhat of a snob, usually with a British or French accent, but kind of cool at the same time.

Maybe because people like allies of a higher standard... Coherent, rational allies who don't run around saying ridiculous things and provoking people.

At last! Could this be... something human and non-human nations have in common? The joy, it surges in amusingly surge-y ways. :p

Some of our officials wrote -- although another country's diplomats eventually 'sponsored' to quorum -- the proposal that passed into World Assembly law as (G.A.) Resolution #20 'Suppress International Piracy'.
Does that answer your question?

The Sweetness of Lackadaisical2 would sincerely disagree with your stance here. However, we do note that we will not be pressured by foreign groups to give up citizens without a complete trial in Lackadaisical which convicts them of a crime if it had been committed within our borders, any such trial would have to be performed by the Lackadaisiclan standard of justice.

1. Then its hard to do anything to people who aren't caught.
2. Thats why we have a nuclear arsenal.
3. No, that'd be a violation of that nation's sovereignty, unless we've proof that they have already intervened in our borders at a governmental level.
4. If we've proof that they have already intervened in our borders at a governmental level, we would not hesitate to glass them.
5. We don't keep stores of gold, our currency is fiat floated.

Not only would that be extremely stupid, as the speuto (Sebytania's currency) is not tied to Sebytania's gold reserves but floats freely, but also very hard. How to commit theft on the Sebytanian Gold Reserve:

1) Locate a storage (they're pretty well hidden, mostly underground, and scattered around the country)
2) Locate an entrance (even more hidden, it may be through the sewer system, it may be via the elevator of a 5 star hotel, or something else)
3) Enter (armed guards, locked blast doors with codes changing every 6 hours, security cameras, tripwires, you name it)
4) Locate the gold (Sebytanian bunkers are generally built like mazes to make navigation difficult for those not supposed to be in, even more so for bunkers containing valuables)
5) Transport the gold out of the storage (again, through armed guards and the like)
6) Avoid getting caught (an extensive search conducted by the military, police as well as the SSS, unless you're invisible you'll propably get caught)

Most likely, one would be dead by the time they get to step three.

Robbery, murder, and such crimes are illegal here. Those committing them would be subject to arrest by the Commonwealth Police, and would be held, charged, and tried here.

Regarding deliberate efforts by foreign countries? We would stop at nothing. We would force them to stop, by any means.

If it would happen (which is unlikely), following would go on...

Singa Darwar
Kathmandu, Great Nepal

"Sie, nation of (insert nation name) has been trying to destroy our economy and cause coup" Minister of Information.
"Perhaps they want to be our next colony or a nuclear wasteland... sie - should I prepare to grant there wish?" Defense Minister
*Dictator prints out copy of "Declaration of War" from computer and signs it and adds nation name and cause in blanks.""
Sure why not.. we shouldn't reject there wish you know. Revise it and sign it honored ministers" Dictator
*Other ministers revise it and sign it but it is not revealed to outer world.*
"Done sie... our military will be ready soon" Military minister



After 3 days (At maximum)
Border of (insert Nation name)

"Fire the shot, we got green light now." Land Force Commander
*Army marches across the "no-man's land"*
"Land force attacked. Take control of air NOW" Airforce commander
*Air is covered by Nepali Airforce within next few minute*
"Land and Air attacked, Take control of Seas NOW" Navy Commander
*Navy takes control of seas.. within next few minutes*


After some weeks/months/years
Kathmandu, Great Nepal

(Insert nation name) has now ceased to exist on face of our Superior army. They tried to destroy our economy - but as we can see they failed and now are part of Nepal Empire. This victory is truly deserved and all the credit goes to our brave men who risked there life for the benefit of Great Nepal and you for supporting and doing the bit to help war effort. The total casualty on our side was (insert casualty number here), we express our greif for there deaths - there contributions shall be written in history of Great Nepal with golden letters. In the sadness of death of our solders we shall maintain empire wide silence at (insert time here).
blablabla.

See what we do?
