[Antaurus]

Following the recent military coup, the Republic of Antaurus has suspended official trade relations with the El Banano De Republico indefinitely. Due to the recent blockade of El Banano De Republico, the Republic of Antaurus will not provide direct assistance to civilians. Antaurus will however provide any and all aid to refugees and other countries aiding in the transport and protection of these civilians.

Would warships be avalable to protect our flotella of civil aid vessels? If nessicery, we do not wish to empty our naval bases.

Unfortunately, without complete control New Bern is not comfortable with investing so much money. Perhaps an objective look at the situation. You face invasion, if New Bern had a controlling share invading this CorporNation would be the same as invading New Bern itself. With the vast resources and protection offered by the New Bernian government the El Banano De Republic could become a great success.

If you change your mind please let us know.

Supply of millitary vessels is seen by the Republic of Antaurus as an act of war and will not be risked. However, in the event of an attack on any civilian aid vessel, the Republic of Antaurus is fully prepared to provide military assistance to defuse such acts against neutral vessels.

[Yethtu]

Understood.

Our aid flottella will temporarly be stalled in nearby allied nations until such a time that the Combat Flotella III arrives

[NS Limbaugh Island]

IC:

USNS Pelican Bay was a Mercy-class hospital ship, one of only two in the US Navy. She was now approaching the waters of this new indecently led nation. With her was a small escort, the Perry-class frigate James Langston, and a Brooke-class, the Kylee Maiden.

Beneath them, however, was more. A single Barbel II-class diesel-electric submarine, USS Bonefish was quietly sailing along, just keeping pace with the surface ships. In addition to a complement of eighty officers and men, she carried six specialist operatives.


******************************

Message from the President of the United States

Greetings,

I am writing to inform the government of the Banana Republic that a hospital ship is en route to take aboard any foreign nations who wish to leave.

I am also requesting to establish an Embassy in your country.

Sincerely,
President David Tweed

[El Banano De Republico]

We accept both of these offers, and hope you will be able to have a stable relation with us. Are you interested in purchasing some bananas?

[Las Pinas]

Richard Penn is working as a waiter on a posh neighborhood cafe in a resort city overlooking a bay. As he do his rounds, he overheard a fat old man commenting something on the morning paper---

"Blood and ashes! There is country called Republic of Banana and their main produce is banana? I wonder if their anthem is "Saging lang ang may puso!"

"What's that dear?" asked problably her wife. "Where did you learn that foreign language?"

"Bah. I just heard that from Rudy while we were playing bingo. I have no idea what it means, it's just that when I bought a banana, he sang that one-liner repeatedly. It was crazy."

"Excuse me sir, ma'am, would you like anything aside from what you order?" asked the waiter.

"None dear. We are quite---"

"Hey Richard!" asked the old man. "What is your opinion of what's happening to this banana nation, especially the takeover of the government by a corporation?"

"Errr...I just work---"

"What is your opinion regarding the intervention of the major powers into this backwater, agricultural nation?"

"Ahh sir..----"

"What is your opinion regarding--"

"Dear! What are you doing!?" shouted the wife.

"Leave me be woman! Again, young man, why do the international community care if a company takes over its country and makes its people produce bananas at 2 cents per hour? Why? Why? Answere me!"

"Sir...I don't--"

"Honey! That does it!" the wife screamed. She reach for her handbag, and suddenly tasered her stupid husband.

[New Hayesalia]

The group of over 50 Mover Heavy Transports were streaming over the capital of North Kreigan. They began to drop their cargo on the city border, over 5000 paratroopers infantry and boxes of supplies. They were being escorted by 100 Razorback Strike fighters, and 15 Porcupines. An AWACS plane was jamming radar and SAM sites. They would land at an offshore air-base, bulit by New Hayesalia on an unclaimed island, in international waters. It maintained guard personnel, but it was mainly for naval training.

Corporal Kara Orram was one of the first to drop. Looking out of the back of the large aircraft, she saw the massive banana plantations. Their Chameleon body suits came in-built with a parachute, a re-usable one. She checked that her Nighthawk was strapped to her waist, her Wasp to her outer leg, and all webbing packs were secured, before jumping from the 1500 feet.

As she crumpled hitting the ground, re-storing her chute, looking out at the somewhat bleak beach (although, by her standards as a Jalewa native, most beaches seemed pretty dull.) she spotted an approaching armada of Halpo-Class landing vehicles letting loose Camels or Ogres, some Rams for the supplies, and even a few Mammoths and Yaks equppied with AA guns. "Hmm, no Boxers. Looks like we've got a lovely 7 kilometre walk ahead of us." she thought aloud.

"Logistics group, load up the Rams!" said Lieutanant-Colonel Gerebah, the Detachment Commander, over the radio
The boxes contained food and building materials. The 5th Airborne Division, Cpl. Orrams regiment, the largest paratroopers group in the New Hayesalian Military, the 7th Logistics and Transport Group, over 2000 Army construction workers and logistics managers, and the 19th Airborne Brigade, which had the facilities for 30 Cougar Attack Helicopters, and the 76th Air Transport Group, containing 50 Eagle Helicopters. they would build a base from tents until they could get main building materials in, but they had plenty of space and supplies to manage an airfield for 65 Helos and multiple SAM sites in a large valley.

"So, lets do it."

[Pythria]

El Banana De Republico Times - Propaganda, Front Page
In response to a threat of reduced banana prices by Soviet Engineers, Jim Bobwick ordered

the following measures to drop overhead on banana plantations:

Children aged 12 and above must serve on the plantations, for $1 per hours
All fit adults not serving in the corporate military must work on the plantations, or begin back-yard state-owned banana farms
BMPs will be modified to carry bananas from place to place

We hope this will be enough to drive the evil gay communist soviet engineers out of business. Heil the Banana!
Also, all fit men and women aged 20-50 must enlist in the militia, and will be supplied rifles to use in case of an invasion.

--Official Message from Pythria--

In light of this recent action, the CC of Pythria withdraws their support. We have come to the conclusion that you are not actually a capitalist corporation, as nobody of your claimed ideology would force people to work, nor would the banana farms be nationalized. Additionally, no capitalist would be a fascist. Therefore, you must be pretending.
