AN OFFICIAL COMMUNIQUÉ BY THE MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS OF NEW KVENLAND

Classification: PUBLIC

Our ambassadors to your nation have recently informed us about your economic plight. We send our warmest condolences, and hope the Vecimian finances will bounce back. However, we have also noticed the violent measures the Vecimian police are using against their own people. We have proposed to send you 10,000,000 Notes (NS$ 12,000,000), in exchange for more peaceful measures. Perhaps outfitting policemen and women with tasers instead of guns?

Signed,
Rt. Hon. Björn Lundqvist
Chancellor of New Kvenland

VECIMIAN STATE COMMUNIQUE

TO: Rt. Hon. Björn Lundqvist Chancellor of New Kvenland
FROM: Office of an Taoiseach Johannes Davis of the Vecimian
ENCRYPTION: OPEN(LOW)
MESSAGE: The Empire appreciates your condolences in this turbulent time. However, you must understand, Vecima is a proud nation, we refuse to allow our policy towards internal affairs to be dictated to us by a wealthier nation. The protesters that currently occupy central Dublin, Galway, Limerick, Cork and Belfast are terrorists, rogues and hellraisers. Do not be swayed by their propaganda. Their goal is the ruination of the Empire and the destruction of our national identity. His Majesty Most Serene Emperor Martin I, personification of our glorious Empire, refuses to let this happen under his watch. This rebels shall be crushed. The sands of time are flowing as the hands of the clock tick slowly toward their doom. Let this be known, the time for play is over, Vecima shall no longer to take a soft approach to these rogues. They will fail and they shall burn. You are with us, or you are with them. There is no neutral.

We respect your nation has dignity, as our nation is the same. After discussing with our cabinet, I have come to this compromise; we send you 7,500,000 Notes (NS$ ≈ 6,000,000), with nothing in return needed. However, our opinion still stands, although it has nothing to do with our transaction. I only hope for peace in your nation, and wish both sides little loss of life.

[Silla Puja]

Ministry of Foreign Affairs




The one whose job it is to speak to other nations is blessed. Just like the highest Dragon Pujan, who speaks for Heaven, the Ambassador is the one who speaks for he who speaks for Heaven. As such, he is blessed.

- Panka Thunsi, "Code of Sillism"

Dear Emperor Martin I OR an appropriate subordinate,

After reading about the economic plight of your country, as well as the social unrest that is following that, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was compelled to write to you directly. While our nations have not had correspondences in the past, we do have a shared commitment to Monarchy. The MoFA, however, does have a few questions.

1) Is there any way to guarantee the safety of Silla Pujan nationals in your country during this time of conflict?
2) Does your nation require any humanitarian aid?
3) Is there anything that your Majesty needs to quell this rebellion that we could possibly provide?

On another note, we also have a question from the Ministry of Religious Harmony.
4) Is there any possibility for the establishment of an Embassy of Heavan (a Sillist temple) in your nation? The construction and upkeep would be paid by us, of course.

We are praying to Sakra, Guardian of the Earth and Minister of the Jade Emperor, that your nations problems are solved.


On Behalf of King Drugka Gylapo,
Minister Tshigom Tamlui

1100 Hours, Command Building, Sarayüz Regional Airport, Korchayk:
Ten men were seated around a large wooden table. The air was heavy with a lingering haze of smoke. There was silence, except for the occasional cough. A door swung open and Raif Zihni Tağalp İlkay, Minister of Finance, entered the room. He was a man who was average in every aspect. Raif İlkay wore a black pinstripe suit with a navy polka dot pocket square. He sat down at the head of the table in a plush armchair. His eyes ran up and down the room. Fiddling in his pockets, he removed a cigarette from his pocket and lit it. He inhaled deeply and reclined, allowing soft wisps of pale smoke to dance through the air.

"So," said the minister causally. "The plan. You are this nation's best economists. Correct?"

There was a murmuring of self conscious agreement.

"Good. I presume then, you know of the events in Vecima. Do you?"

The economists nodded profusely.

"A most unfortunate set of circumstances," purred İlkay. "Anyhow, you must follow the plan that we drew up to help Vecima. Good luck and Teshup bless."
The economists bowed and exited, heading to the aeroplane that would transport them to Vecima.

[Vecima]

The Prophet of the Church and President of the nation walked into his house after getting the call. The Minister of Humanitarian Affairs informed him on the disappearance of the Humanitarian Aids. He had informed the Minister to immediately contact both the leaders of the government and the rebels to make sure the Aids were safe.

From the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs
To the Rebels and Government of Vecima
The Disappearance of the Humanitarian Aids

It has come to our attention that many of our Humanitarian forces have disappeared we are contacting both the Rebels and Government to ensure the safe release of the Aids immediately. We also wish to know of who exactly caused the disappearance of our Aids. If we are not informed we will have to step in against both sides to get the release of our Aids.

VECIMIAN STATE COMMUNIQUE

TO: Wilbert Rod
FROM: Office of His Majesty Most Serene Emperor Martin I of the Vecimian Empire
ENCRYPTION: THE STRICTEST CONFIDENTIALITY(HIGH)
MESSAGE: The Empire strenuously denies any involvement in the abduction of Deseretian Mormon Humanitarian Aids. Further, we strongly condemn ANY and ALL acts of violence against foreign nationals in this nation who do valuable work supplying the people of this land with necessary resources. We insist that a full criminal investigation is underway and the rescue of the humanitarian aids is of our top priority.

However, we do not appreciate the stance your nation have taken towards this crisis. Your threats of "stepping in" do not amuse us. Vecima is proud nation and any intervention in this crisis, both direct or indirect will be responded to harshly. You are treading on thin ice. Be wary.

[The State of Deseret]

From the Office of Humanitarian Affairs
To the Vecima Foreign Affairs

We apologize as we did not mean to cause relations to be sour. As an apology we withdraw our warning and give your government the benifet of doubt. We simply ask to send two details to help in the investigation. You may deny; however this denying of help will result in distrust amongst the State of Deseret's populace. We do not wish for any cold relations between out countries and hope this incident does not sour relations between us.

Greetings! The Recon Empire has always been a keen support of monarchy and its ideologies, and we dread to see such dislike happening throughout your nation.

VECIMIAN STATE EXECUTIVE JOINT COMMUNIQUE

TO: King Drugka Gylapo
FROM: Office of an His Majesty Most Serene Emperor Martin I of the Vecimian Empire, Office of an Taoiseach Johannes Davis of the Vecimian Empire
ENCRYPTION: THE STRICTEST CONFIDENTIALITY(HIGH)
MESSAGE: We are honoured by your letter of support in this turbulent time. I shall address your questions. Unfortunately, the locations numbers of the Silla Punjan citizens currently residing in Vecima is at this time unknown. However, we appreciate you bringing this to our attention, I have instructed numerous auditors to begin work on reviewing the previous census in an effort to ascertain the location of your citizens and all other citizens of the world. Secondly, any humanitarian aid at this moment is appreciated. As you may or may not know, the people of Vecima are starving in the streets, businesses are collapsing, families are being wrenched apart. All help available is urgently needed. In addition to this, an open letter of support from your Majesty would be much appreciated in our fight to crush these terrorists. Lastly, let it be known, our government sponsors a policy of enforced atheism. Theism is strongly discouraged and religious societies are virtually non-existent. However, recently we amended our legislation, these changes allow for the opening of religious societies, if it's aims are the provision of humanitarian aid. An Embassy of Heaven is welcome if it meets these criteria.

MESSAGE: The Empire appreciates your generosity in this turbulent time. However, we regret to inform you that, under Executive Order no. 465830 by His Regency Most Serene Emperor Martin I, we must reject your kind offer. Although, the state finances are far from secure, we feel that such a substantial debt is not sustainable at this time. I am sure you are aware of the current situation in Vecima. We most assure you that the leaking of this document would cause untold damage.

LaBelleian Methodist Missionaries Disappear- 30/11/14

"It was all solemn faces around the main protest camp in St. Stephen's Green as news filtered through that yet another team of foreign missionaries have disappeared. The protesters awoke to find the aid camps burned to the ground, striking similarities to the disappearance of a team of Deseretian Humanitarian aids earlier this week. While the protesters continue to deny any involvement. A spokesman for an Taoiseach was in no doubt as to who was to blame: "The Empire of Vecima strenuously deny any involvement in the kidnapping of these missionaries. It is clear to all that these rogues are to blame.... The aim of these terrorists is the destruction of the Empire of Vecima and the death of our national identity. His Majesty refuses to let that happen.

Protests against the 30-year long rule of Emperor Martin I following the collapse of the economy and the end to almost a decade of stellar economic expansion. As unemployment continues to skyrocket, currently standing at 17.7%, the protests around the Empire continue to swell and intensify. Skirmishes and minor riots are now becoming commonplace in central Dublin, as riot police struggle to contain the spread of the protests. Economic activity has ground to a halt in central Dublin as protesters continue to block main streets and avenues. There are reports of food shortages due to a serious lack of supply.

1600 Hours, Dublin Airport, Dublin, Vecima:

Soldiers surrounded the economists as they dismounted the aircraft. The men bristled as they entered the open space that lay ahead of them. Ten armoured four seater cars were parked a short distance from the plane, their engines on. The head of the soldiers, Commander Şefik Tahir Üzeyir, began to command his men and the economists.
"Okay," he began, still walking briskly. "One soldier and one economist per car. Shoot if attacked. See you all at the Department of Finance."
Arriving at the cars, Commander Üzeyir made the nine soldiers and nine economists get into nine of the cars. The chief of the economists, Sör Jorin Yaser Vedat, waited outside the car he and Commander Üzeyir had been assigned. Sör Jorin Vedat was a tall, handsome man in his late thirties. He had strikingly black hair with a perfectly trimmed beard. After Commander Üzeyir had finished loading the others into the car, he got himself and Sör Vedat into the car.

1710 Hours, Office 21b, Department of Finance, Leinster House, Dublin, Vecima:

The men unloaded themselves and the man they had been assigned from their car and swiftly moved themselves into Leinster House. Sör Jorin Vedat went up to the main desk and smiled at the secretary.
"Hello," he said with a smile in perfect English. "I am Jorin Yaser Vedat, I'm with the Korchayki delegation. We have been allocated to office 21b. Please could you or someone guide us to our office?"
