Happy Birthday to Schiltzberg!

[Schiltzberg]

Oh my gosh, it has been such a fine year. It is amazing to think that one year ago I had never heard of NationStates. I have enjoyed RPing as Schiltzberg for this last year more than any of you probably realize, and I am excited to be celebrating National Schiltzberg Day for the first time, now that it is officially past midnight on March 31. Schiltzberg will officially turn one year old at 12:18:59 Central Time, according to NSNation.

[Middle Oceania]

The following is a message from the Emperor of Middle Oceania, Alexander III,

To the people of Schiltzberg,

On behalf of my people, I bid you congratulations on your anniversary. May the years ahead bring you prosperity, peace, and progress. If there is anything Middle Oceania can do to you, please yet me know. For now, please accept this gift of 1,000,000 dollars I will be sending to your government. And your people, until May 1st, will be able to travel to Middle Oceania at 50% the normal price (we will pay half their expenses no matter what method they take to arrive here).

Blessings upon you all,

Alexander III, of the House of Ludwin
Emperor of Middle Oceania

[The Peoples Commonwealth of Unity]

In honor to celebrate a full year of Schiltzberg's foundation, on behalf of The People's Commonwealth, I shall present a steel sword and shield, handcrafted by the finest blacksmiths of Unity.

Since you're nation is located in the Northern Pacific, a golden bust two hands shaking, to symbolize our two regions working together.

Sincerely,
Aleksy Kodak, Secretary of Foreign Affairs.
