Asleau gives up Israel

Asleau has decided as host to the United Nations that the holy land is best to be left unclaimed by any particular country, though, the United Nations will govern, and police the country. Since the UN is policing this country, all nations are expected to put their own part into protecting this country. A poll will be taken to see if this is what the General Assembly agrees on. If they do not agree, a debate will be had to see who does get to have the land.


On the other hand, new technology in Asleau!

Frialenia is a country in Karelia, the Baltic States, and the Kaliningrad Oblast. The government was a republic from 1900 until 1932, when the Frialenian Civil War began. It lasted from 1932 to 1947, with a break from 1940 until 1945, because WW2 came to the region. After WW2, it all went the monarchists' way. They won decisive battles at Lencenbrod and Karlianüster, taking 75,000 POWs combined. After suffering heavy losses, and losing half of its army, the Republicans gave up. 2.545.000 people died by the war, of which 1.750.000 were civilians, as the fighting was in the neighborhoods of Frialenian cities. After taking power, the monarchy began rebuilding the country, which was left weakened by WW2 and the Civil War. Frialenia saw rapid industrial growth from 1953 onwards. It is a neutral (mostly) country.

A Nation's Neighbors

Postby Utopia Beach » Tue Nov 17, 2015 4:08 pm

Lucas Marcelino; Valencia, Utopia Beach

I couldn't believe it. Everything was happening so fast! My nation, the nation of my heritage, had finally risen once again, after the attack of that nation, Nova Auraluxia, who have also recently risen again. It was my graduation day from college when I heard of the devastating attack. My father...my dearest father, Lucas Marcelino, Sr., had died during that day. My colleagues, Erasmo Marta, Rafael Phillips, Selena Toribio, they were all named after their parents as well, the greatest leaders in Utachian history. And we had to fill their shoes.
I tried my best, signing off on certain miscellaneous subjects given to me and debated. But my real passion was for world affairs. All these other historic nations, suddenly rising...Well, I can't help but be excited! And so I wrote letters to separate governments, in the hope of making allies, just as my father did. Helensted had already accepted our alliance, and for that I was glad, for Helensted had been a longtime ally and friend of the history Utopia Beach. In order to solidify the alliance, I wrote a letter to the government of The Duchy of Prussia, apparently Helensted's other half. I had always like Prussia's sensibility, those of a smart, logical government. Next was the government of Quadami-Alderney, also a longtime friend and ally of the historic Utopia Beach. The next two I had trouble on, my thoughts swirling into a vortex of worries. Ethane, the nation with the closest political beliefs as the historic Utopia Beach, and indeed the political beliefs of the Utopia Beach today. Now...they were changed somehow, although I couldn't put my finer on how. I went through it anyway, signing the offer of an alliance with my signature, the one that all said looks exactly like my father's did. The last and final letter was to the government of Grandes Terres, a nation that the historic Utopia Beach wasn't exactly friends with. But they were great friends at first too, and I hoped to bring that friendship to its former glory. I sent the letters, three in all, to the message boy, to be delivered immediately. I was done for the day, or at least I was until Ms. Toribio walked in.
"Hola, Señor Marcelino, Vengo a ustedes aquí para hablar de Nova Auraluxia. Ellos son ... muy grande, y una nación muy poderosa también," she talks quickly, as if forced.
"¿Qué esperas que haga al respecto?" I replied, annoyed. I was frustrated, for issue upon issue seemed to be piling up, and I had no time for a long conversation.
"Hay muchas llamadas simplemente ignorarlos por completo. No serán en ningún mapa , en los libros de historia , y no habrá ningún contacto entre nuestras dos naciones," she rushed, her eyes flickering towards the clock.
"¿Y usted apoya esta ?" I questioned. I would not send the suggestion to Parliament unless someone else supported it. "¿No crees que es un poco duro ?"
"Todo lo contrario , en realidad. ¡Mataron a nuestros padres, nuestro pueblo, nuestra nación!" She retorted, now fully staring at the clock.
And then I remembered. It was the anniversary of the historic Utopia Beach's fall, and the death of not just my parents, but of my colleagues' as well. It explained how distracted she was and how distracted I had been. I rushed out of my chair, it rolling into the back wall.
"¡Lo siento! ¡Debo ir!!"
She smiled, and said, "Voy a cuidar de él . Voy a usted y los otros se reúnen en el santuario , ¿bueno?"
"¡Gracias! ¡Me acabo de acordar!!"
The drive towards the graveyard seemed to take forever, and it must have been indeed, for Ms. Toribio had beaten me there. The first thing I saw was the massive tombstone, symbolic of course, for they had never...never found our parents. Then I saw the others, sitting on the grass, smiling, talking, but always with a sadness that we all shared, that only we and others who lived through the tragedy could notice. Utopia Beach may have fallen with our parents, but it will rise again, with us.

We prayed for our parents for two hours straight, before it was finally time to go. I have to admit, I didn't take the "escort" well when they said we had to leave. My father had missed my graduation, and if I was gonna devote my whole life praying for him, then it is none of their business. But I must follow all rules, as the example for this nation, this new Utopia Beach, the one that would rise from the ashes made by Nova Auraluxian weapons. I made my speech that day, the first speech I had made as president. I hoped it had brought up morale on this dark day, the anniversary of the historic Utopia Beach's fall. And it did, in fact, for cheering could be heard throughout the nation, for Utopia Beach, this new, better nation, as we learned and will learn from our father nation's mistakes. It was translated into our different languages, Spanish and Portuguese, in the hopes that all would listen.
Spanish Speech wrote:Hola a todos los ciudadanos de Utopia Beach. Hoy, hace exactamente treinta y ocho años , un cruel acto que pasó a la historia que sucedió. El ataque de Nova Auraluxia en nuestra nación padre, Utopia Beach del Caribe, y la posterior rendición y masacre de ese Utopia Beach. La mayoría de los ciudadanos...la mayoría de ellos fueron asesinados, y así eran todos los miembros del gobierno, incluyendo a los padres de la señora Marta, la Señora Toribio, el Señor Philips y yo. Ellos trataron de traernos abajo, pero sobrevivieron, y hemos crecido, y ahora somos una nación oficial del mundo! La nueva playa de Utopía, en estas tierras de España, Portugal, Marruecos y el Sáhara Occidental. Y vamos a crecer fuerte y no nos rendiremos, y vamos a llegar a ser la nación más hermosa en toda estas tierras! Nuestra belleza, nuestra cultura, estos son lo que importa. La utopía de playa del Caribe estaba en medio de la crisis, y que fue aprovechada, pero no para nosotros ! ¡Sobreviviremos!

Portuguese Speech wrote:Olá a todos os cidadãos de Utopia Beach. Hoje, exatamente 38 anos atrás, um ato cruel que entrou para a história aconteceu. O ataque de Nova Auraluxia em nossa nação pai, Utopia Beach do Caribe, ea rendição subseqüente massacre e de que Utopia Beach. A maioria dos cidadãos...a maioria deles foram mortos , e assim foram todos os membros do governo, incluindo os pais de Senhora Marta , Senhora Toribio, o Senhor Philips, e eu. Eles tentaram nos derrubar, mas sobrevivemos, e crescemos, e agora somos uma nação oficial do mundo! A nova Utopia Beach, nestas terras de Espanha, Portugal, Marrocos e Sahara Ocidental. E nós vamos crescer forte, e nós não vamos nos render, e vamos tornar a nação mais bonita ao longo dessas terras! A nossa beleza, nossa cultura, estes são o que importa. O Caribe Utopia Beach foi no meio da crise, e que foi aproveitada, mas não para nós! Nós vamos sobreviver!

I smiled then, as Utopia Beach was on the rise again, soaring towards the goal of becoming the most cultured nation.

They still don't know I am here. I am here, always here, always watching, always remembering. Nova Auraluxia, they ruined it. We could have changed all. But they took over. This new one is interesting, though, but will eventually fail. I will help it back. It needs me. They will all me.

Militant Rhodesia Founded!

Deep in southern Africa (Zimbabwe) lies the almost-forgotten nation of Militant Rhodesia. For years they have lived here peacefully, a colonial state of an oppressive nation. Finally fed up with high taxes and few freedoms, they have declared independence from the mother state, and are prepared to fight fiercely to keep what is rightfully theirs.

Rhodesian officials have stated that they have no desire to expand, and wish to remain on good terms with as much of the world as possible.

New Nation! Texasa Founded

Postby Texasa » Tue Nov 17, 2015 6:47 pm

The Federation of Texasa is a very large, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 136 million Texasans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The relatively small, pro-business government is primarily concerned with Law & Order, with Spirituality, Defense, and Healthcare also on the agenda, while International Aid and Welfare receive no funds. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 14.4%.

The very strong Texasan economy, worth 6.86 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Book Publishing industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, and Tourism. Average income is 50,445 Dollars, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 154,099 per year while the poor average 12,799, a ratio of 12.0 to 1.

Crime, especially youth-related, is relatively low, thanks to a well-funded police force. Texasa's national animal is the moose, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Texasa Is Located In The USA And Mexico And Canada And Is A Federation-Democracy.

New Tech

Scientists from Nova Auraluxia had made new technology which it will use to build up its military. It includes the cheap and reliable AK-37, the M60 Patton, and American tank made to compete against the Russian T-series and the Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21, a Russian fighter jet that is highly maneuverable. These new techs will soon be incorporated into the Nova Auraluxian military.

  • AK-47
  • T-62A
  • Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21

Request for Tech Alliance

The Nova Auraluxian government has requested to form a tech alliance with Seventh Oblivion and Quadami-Alderney, the Auraluxian government hopes to establish diplomatic relations with these countries.

New Technology!

The Rhodesian Bureau of Military Design has unveiled some interesting new equipment which will undoubtedly help in the defense of Rhodesian lands.

Rhodesian Armory RA FAL
Image

The RA FAL is a new battle rifle design which shall take up the role of a basic service rifle, being issued to all troops by default until new weapons are available to diversify roles within squads.
It uses a 20-round detachable box magazine, and is select-fire. It fires a 7.62x51mm cartridge, allowing for superb range, accuracy, and stopping power.
The rifle is being put into production in two variations. One with a full stock, and another with a folding stock.


Mk.I Ferret Armoured Car
Image

The Ferret has been designed as a multi-role armoured car. Strategists believe it will prove invaluable on the battlefield due to the many purposes it is capable of serving. It is currently armed with the old, but reliable, Browning M1919 machine gun.

The new leader of Grandes Terres, the son of the old leader, Alejandro Dupont has accepted the alliance between Grandes and Utopia Beach and hopes for "a new age of friendship" between the two nations and its allies who have had a very turbulent relationship since the 1920's and has sent a gift of 1,000 bottles of vintage Grandes Terresian red wine from the vineyards of Adelaide, Australia worth up to 2,000,000 (2 million) Grando El Capitalismo's and has also gifted the leader personally with a pure gold, hand crafted and painted tea set worth up to 100,000 Grando El Capitalismo's, critics have said that the gifts have cost the tax payer way too much but Alejandro Dupont said "Anything to please our old pal" Grandes Terres would also like to open up a trade route between the two nations which will benefit both of the nations economies.

Asleau Creates a rifle!

Postby Asleau » Wed Nov 18, 2015 1:18 pm

Alseau creates the M-16 rifle!

As Asleau sees the manufacturing of many new rifles, it wants to compete in the arms race, releasing their M-16. The M-16 will be the standard rifleman's weapon in all branches of the Military. The M-16, being fairly cheap to produce, has gone into full production. The M-16 can also be used an marksman rifle. The rifle also comes in many variants, using a spectrum of scopes, rails, triggers, springs, and bolts.

(OOC: This does claim all other evolutions of the rifle!)

Specifications

Weight 7.18 lb (3.26 kg) (unloaded)
8.79 lb (3.99 kg) (loaded)
Length 39.5 in (1,003 mm)
Barrel length 20 in (508 mm)
Cartridge 5.56×45mm NATO
Action Gas-operated, rotating bolt (direct impingement)
Rate of fire 12–15 rounds/min sustained
45–60 rounds/min semi-automatic
700–950 rounds/min cyclic
Muzzle velocity 3,110 ft/s (948 m/s)
Effective firing range 550 m (601 yd) (point target)
800 m (875 yd) (area target)
Maximum firing range 3,600 m (3,937 yd)
Feed system 20-round detachable box magazine:
0.211 lb (96 g) empty / 0.738 lb (335 g) full)

Image

(OOC Disclaimer: Many think that the rifle was made in 1962, though, that is when it was commissioned, not made. The rifle was manufactured in 1959!)

(OOC Disclaimer: Many think that the rifle was made in 1962, though, that is when it was commissioned, not made. The rifle was manufactured in 1959!)


OOC: goddamn it the M16A1 (first one) was made in 1969 and you have a picture of the M16a2 made in 82

The Restorer

Mid Summer, 1960 - Mediterranean waters, the coast of the Algeria

The First Consul of the Fourth French (Frankish) Republic, Olivier Constantine, monitored the deck of the aircraft carrier from his command post on the Florent de Varennes. In this state of thought, the Admiral of the French navy, Pierre Barjot, tapped the First Consul on the shoulder grabbing his attention. "Monsieur, the planes are ready in all five carriers. We are ready to launch once you make your way to the flight deck," the esteemed Admiral Barjot reported in a commanding voice. Immediately after updating the First Consul, Barjot returned to his post at the window overlooking the deck and yelled to a nearby communications officer, "You! Monsieur! Make sure our damned infantry transports are ready and the planes are ready for take off, by this time the Algerians have most likely spotted us!"

The sounds and sights of productivity in a military headquarters took place around Olivier Constantine, as he left the small headquarters on the Florent de Varennes aircraft carrier he smirked to himself. He would be known in history as the restorer of the French Empire as it was under de Gaulle twenty-five years ago.

Soon enough the First Consul made his way past the maze of the inner tunnels of the Florent de Varennes and found himself on the flight deck. Once on the deck a Navy Officer wearing a bright orange life vest ran up to him and said to the the First Consul, "We are seventy five kilometers off the Algerian coast Monsieur, do you give word for Aerial operations over the Mediterranean Coast of the Algiers?"

"Of course Officer, Admiral Barjot informed me that operations are underway?"

"Oui, and the film crew is over by that GB-IV, one thousand GB-IVs are scheduled to launch from Marseilles within the hour immediately after our preemptive strike of one hundred GB-IV fighters. This is what you ordered am I correct?"

"Indeed," and with this statement the First Consul made his way to the filming crew, where a [propaganda] public service ad would be produced and released to the public to rally support for the reclamation of Algeria.



Helensted Begins Operation to Reclaim Algeria!

In the winter of 1945 the Helenstedian Province of Algeria seceded from the French Republic following the unification of Prussia and France under the Frankish Empire. The Muslim minority has ruled over the French majority since then under a tyrannical Sunni government modeling that of [modern] Iraq. Just a few months after gaining power as First Consul, Olivier Constantine declared war on Algeria to reincorporate it as a French Commonwealth nation and save the Algerian Frenchmen from the Muslim regime. In his historic words following the deceleration of war, Olivier Constantine stated that "...the Colonial Empire of the union of Frenchmen under the Fourth French Republic will no longer be a thing of the past, it is time for the French people worldwide to once again unite, and to once again purge the world of the tyrannical hands that dare to subjugate the French population.

Five French-Helenstedian Corps (250,000 men) were immediately mobilized and were formed into the new "French Foreign Legion," and was modeled off the Foreign Legion that ruled the globe under the Fourth Republic. The Foreign Legion then embarked on transport craft to sail south to the coast of Annaba, where the invasion of Algeria would start.

Five aircraft carriers were also commissioned to the Mediterranean, where a preemptive strike of 100 GB-IVs was launched to strike various manufacturing facilities across Algeria. This attack was successful and the Helenstedian attackers lost zero planes in the process due to Algeria's lack of updated technology to combat jets. After the preemptive strike, 1,000 GB-IVs and 500 B-52 Voler Château bombers were launched from Marseilles Airforce Base and destroyed many of the naval defense systems protecting the East of Algeria from coastal assault. This attack the Algerians were prepared however, but the Cracher du Feu fighters they sent to combat the GB-IVs were torn to shreds by the superior jets. The Algerian military lost 562 planes while the Helenstedian contrary lost 19, the remaining Algerian airforce fled to an airforce base near Algiers.

After the very successful air assault discussed above, the landing force of 250,000 landed near the city of Oran without resistance for the Algerian coastal defense fled inland after the bombing raids. The Foreign Legion was split up into their appropriate corps and are estimated to face Algerian resistance in the next few months of combat, but as of now the French-Algerian population supports the Helenstedian cause wholeheartedly.

this morning Loyalist American troops cross the frontier between the Northeastern and Southeastern parts of Brazil encountering no real opposition from local natives who greeted the troops as their protectors resulting in little if any fighting thus making such annexation possible as the Union Jack is hoisted from one village to the next.

''Provocation makes war''-President Rockefeller

President Rockefeller has signed a bill into law declaring war on the Philippines. This is in response to the great tragedy of the sinking of cruise ship G.B Big Pharma, which killed 77 passengers. General Raymond Spruance of the Navy has been sent to lead the 1st Fleet, which composes 8 aircraft carriers, 6 battleships, 20 destroyers, and 15 cruisers and General Douglas MacArthur has been sent to manage the 4th Operational Group, which composes about 270,000 infantry.

''Sir, is it time?'' a young 1st Fighter Squadron Leader asks General Spruance on carrier Essex, ''Yes, launch the squadron, make a raid on Legaspi as I have stated before'' ''Yes sir!'' The 25 GB-IVs of the Squadron encounter almost no naval resistance, as the Filipino government is unprepared. The fighters, armed with missiles and 20mm canons strafe, strike, and destroy nearly 54 aircraft. When the Army of the Philippines was alerted, a meager naval force of just 5 destroyers and 4 cruisers was assembled to counter the 1st Fleet. The enemy destroyers tried to launch an attack with their 4 inch cannons, although they quickly were repelled and three of them were sunk by torpedo attacks. Then, a broadside by battleship Nevada and sister-ships Connecticut, New Hampshire, and Delaware knocked out the remaining destroyers and disabled all the enemy cruisers.

The Filipino navy effectively lost before it's battle even began. When the naval conflict finished, the 4th Operational Group landed on Samar, and encountered tiny resistance. A small group of 5,000 Filipino soldiers attempted to meet up with the 4th Operational Group, but were mowed down and destroyed by the 4th's Light Armor brigade and machine gunners. Quickly, the isle of Samar was taken, and the Filipino Campaign had begun.

Massive Damage of Enemy Fleet

The 2nd Fleet of the nation of Loyalist-America, which recently declared war on GreatestBanks, has been ravaged by attacks from the 1st Fleet. 15 Submarines from the 1st Fleet launched torpedo attacks which sunk 10 of the severely outdated battleships of the enemy fleet. Then, the 4th Fighter Squadron launched missile attacks on this fleet, sinking another 7 ships. Afterwards, the severely battered enemy fleet was met by a surface force, 4 battleships and 10 destroyers.

''Fire, fire, fire, fire!'' radios Admiral Spruance to the Commander of Battleship Nevada, and so it happens. The battleships launch a massive broadside, with their 15 inch shells penetrating deep into the enemy fleet, sinking the remaining battleships and the remaining enemy cruisers. Afterwards, the destroyers launch a series of unbearable torpedo attacks, sinking almost all of the enemy fleet. Effectively destroyed, and their troop transports left with no protection, the Loyalist-American fleet retreated...
