THE GRANADA FEDERATION
THE RULE OF SERGIO DE SAN MARTIN
Replies Needed from the Following
- N/A, for now
South America,
The Granada Federation
Ecstasy - the feeling, a sensation that rose through your body like a coffee rose bringing energy and the greatest of scents, could be many things, but one of the most pride-bringing was conquering. Not conquering where thousands of young men were sent to die while their little brothers pleaded with their mothers to bring Bubba back, nor conquering where disease was used against foes. This brand of conquering was among the most elusive. This kind of conquering was one of peace and negotiation, and it had brought 4 million new kin into the population of the Granada Federation. For now, the need to expand further was stifled for the moment, and celebratory affectations still burned among the Granadeers.
The atmosphere was not calm, however. Iberia - its two nations of Spain and Portugal - had succeeded in, at one point, colonizing much of the land that the Latin nations were attempting to reclaim. A neighbor of the Granada Federation happened to be composed of the descendants of the Viceroyalty of Brasilia, and though the ambitions of an unified Brazil had been abandoned for some time, the upset of the Granda Federation’s expansionism was disastrous for relations. The Kingdom of Brazil was prepared for war, and with a population of 8 million they were more than capable of defending themselves for some time.
A force of soldiers had begun massing, preparing to repel any preemptive strikes against the Federation. A contingent from the First Federal Army and First Premier Guard had been dispatched, composed of 50,000 men from the Federal Army and 10,000 elite soldiers from the Premier Guard. Divided into 5 divisions of 10,000 men each, the Federal Army’s divisions would be accompanied by brigades of 2,000 men each. The massing would likely be complete given time, with more time taken for fortifications, but in the meantime as key positions began to be occupied by more and more soldiers, the Communication Corps had dispatched two dozen scouts on horseback to covertly learn of the enemy kingdom’s capabilities. They would return - once again, given time - with information much needed for the defense of the Federation, and any strikes made against the Kingdom of Brazil.
Naval vessels had been deployed - largely the coastal defense vessels - to counter-balance against the decently-sized fleet of the Kingdom of Brazil. Deployed was half of an entire fleet, 25 vessels, though not the largest of them - which was a primitive ironclad version of the battleship we all know - as well as 2 submarines that would carry information between the fleet and the mainland as needed.
Back home, police officers were still being dispatched and assigned, while some soldiers had been drafted to do policing duties while training efforts had started for new forces of police for the newly acquisitioned territory. Insuring the safety of the population, and the sanctity of peace would do well for the nation’s goals. The police were repeatedly told of their peacekeeping duties - that is, to keep the peace. They were to be as amiable as possible with the population, and to make detailed reports as well as keep a log to help with the insurance that some suspicious activity - if there was any - would be caught before anything too severe happened.
A new project regarding the roads, bridges, other transport, and communications infrastructure of the nation had been undertaken. Widespread telegraph networks were a part of the project, but just the beginning. The building of bridges and roads, and the maintenance of these as well as existing ones, would be assigned 5% of the GDP as a part of the transport and communications effort being initiated. While the infrastructure of the nation wasn’t poor, it also wasn’t the best in the world. In a decade, there might be something more akin to the Native American cultures of yore present - roads connecting nearly everything in major settlements, from nearby farms linked to markets, to every aspect of a city possessing roads that were quite decent in nature.
A militia was to be set up composed of individuals from the newly acquired territory, with members of this militia slowly going on to become police officers and members of the military as the territory started to be integrated further and further. If the ownership of Brasilia looked like an occupation, public opinion of the Granadeer there would be poor, after all. The militia would start out at 1% of the population there, hopefully, with this meaning that 40,000 militiamen would be brought in over a period of several months to a year of recruitment. Integration took time, but given that time, great things could be done. Considering that the militia was to be composed of volunteers, the recruitment would likely be encouraged by propaganda encouraging protecting Brasilia. The volunteers would need to be indoctrinated as well, and assuring them that the government could pay them enough to take care of their families, offer legal representation if necessary, and provide decent enough equipment that they wouldn’t be overrun in mere minutes, as well as support from the various corps (such as the Communication Corps) in the Empire, would be part of that indoctrination.
The Dispatch
Two major positions, their status largely unknown, from which the Federation could manage their affairs in the South Atlantic Ocean had sat untouched and unclaimed by various parties. These included the island of Two Boats, with the city of Georgetown on it, and St. Helena, Ascension, and Tristan de Cunha. Twin flotillas - composed of 10 combat vessels each - were preparing to launched. With the flotillas, there would be troop transport, hospital, and supply vessels, as well as several couriers that could carry information to different parts of the mainland if additional assistance or supplies - different locations providing varying types of that - were needed.
The launch was not complete, yet. As always, there was a period of planning and preparation before something could be done, whether that was in war or in colonization. Planning and preparation was taking place now. The plan was to begin the expedition peacefully, with the combat ships bombarding any encountered enemy positions and engaging any enemy vessels. Then, the troop transports would land and deploy their soldiers to secure the position. While the need to expand was largely smited for the moment, the presence of such potentially valuable territory was causing some anxiety should an European power acquire it.
Nearby were the Portuguese. Granada probably wouldn’t have any problems with them, however.
The supplies carried were a mixture of supplies for combat and healthy amounts of goods necessary for survival, harnessing local resources, and construction. There were a plentiful amount of vessels, as the people there needed to survive for a while, and, if necessary, repair any of the docks there. Whether or not there were still people on these islands was unknown. A lack of knowledge was an unfortunate aspect of not interacting with certain locations and places. Granada had not had a part in these islands in quite some time, even lightly. Considering their somewhat isolationist tendencies, with Granada only having recently granted the Turks economic access, this was to be somewhat expected. Still, there was more to the world than Hawaiian sugar and his Hawaiian wife, Sergio had found, especially as Luca - the heir apparent to the Premiership - had encouraged interacting with the world more, and leaving the tradition of trading with a handful of powers behind.

Throughout the week thousands of servants had arrived at the Palace of Versailles. The hauled in tables, chairs, plates, food, wine barrels, spices, and countless other things which would assist in the preparation of the Hall of Mirrors, turning it into a lavish meeting zone for the incumbent leaders of the world which were set to arrive in a few days.
In the center of the Hall a large, thirty foot by five foot oak table which stood four feet high was placed down. It was encircled by two dozen chairs, which would hold the multiple world leaders and their plus ones (mostly their deputies or ambassadors). These chairs were handcrafted, gold-rimmed chairs which were the finest France had to offer. Chairs, silverware, tableware, every detail and every triviality was made as presentable as possible. Chefs and cooks of Spanish, English, Hashemite, Asiatic, and various other origins were summoned to cook meals that were part of each of the world leader’s cuisines.
The French Imperial Guard was hired to guard the event, with hundreds of guardsmen stations in strategic positions inside and outside the Palace, with one placed in between every two world leaders/dignitaries at the table in the Hall of Mirrors. The vast and tight levels of defense propagating outwards from the Hall and to the surrounding, exterior gardens, walkways, etc ensures that not one unauthorized person could make it through.
A total of ~150,000 Francs (2.5 million USD ca. 2018) were spent on these preparations, and when all was complete after six days of ten-hour shifts for the thousands of servants, cooks, and other laborers, the Hall of Mirrors was ten times more luxurious than ever. Dozens of French statesmen and dignitaries had to come to Versailles prematurely to see the wonderful work down, and all were equally amazed. Oh how intensely the Hall glittered and shimmered! This was truly a major accomplishment by France and made for the perfect spot to discuss the future in!
Along with the invitation included in President Brogile’s inaugural speech a month earlier a separate RSVP was sent out to the world leaders to, in more detail, invite them (OOC: You don’t have to respond to this).
To: Other world leaders
From: Foreign Ministry of France
Your Excellencies, Majesties, Right Honourables, Eminences, Etc.,
On behalf of President Brogile this letter is being sent to all of you to formally invite you to the Palace of Versailles next month. We will be discussing a variety of topics, some of which are the following:
- International cooperatives to construct and fund megaprojects which will benefit our progeny, e.g. the [url=x]Niger Basin irrigation project[/url]
- Upholding peace through enhancing and popularizing diplomacy, decolonization, democratization, egalitarianism, reformism, etc.
- Promoting the development of advanced technologies to produce a sophisticated and vibrant future for our young
- Et cetera
We are modifying the Palace to fit your needs, from cuisine to customs. We have hired Chinese, English, Russian, and other cuisine-specific chefs, we’re hiring and preparing intense levels of security for your safety, and we’re preparing special valets and postillions to transport you to the Palace.
You are allowed to bring a dignitary or two, we have prepared enough seats to sit one or two additional people per head of state. There are associated congregations throughout the Palace, so you can choose even more dignitaries to bring, but they will not be in the Hall of Mirrors. Due to this we’re expecting over a hundred people to arrive. I hope you will be one of them.
Sincerely,
Minister Ferry and the entire Foreign Ministry

Meanwhile, the military development program also occurred the same time as the economical development. They received fundings, as well as hundreds of recruits who signed up for the army, following a campaign promoting the military. The military was given more training, as well as reorganization to a western military order. The commanders were trained too to cope with the change. Weapons and munitions factory were also constructed, as were storages for it and fortifications along the Mexico-US border. In addition, a plan was written for the invasion of Mexico's southern neighbor, Guatemala. The army was prepared for the invasion, while Spain was contacted about it, to inform them.
In an unrelated news, President Diaz performed a speech, praising France's new leadership. However, in another speech right after the French one, he praised Spain. He also accepted France's invitation to join the meeting.

I, Yohannes, the Emperor of Ethiopia, am writing to you to announce a change of Imperial policy concerning religion. For far too long, the Empire has been fragmented along religious lines. Christians and Muslims have fought viciously for hundreds of years, and in doing so have done nothing but divide our nation, and make it susceptible to the schemes of foreign powers.
From this day forward, there will be only three religions recognized by the state: Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. Each community will be governed in its own affairs by the designated religious authorities.
Christians will be governed by the Orthodox Church, which will be headed by the Abun, who will be chosen in the traditional manner.
Muslims will be governed by the uluma, headed the Sheikh ul-Islam, who will be chosen the Emir of Harar from among the scholars of that city.
Jews will be governed by the kessim, headed the Liqa Kahenat, who will be chosen by the people of that community.
All subjects shall have the right to have cases regarding personal matters heard in courts governed by the religious authority of their community.
Each religious authority will be consulted in the appointment of a Minister of Religious Affairs, who will handle the day-to-day matters of the state regarding religion. I shall retain my traditional role as mediator in spiritual matters of the Church, and will seek to serve in that manner to prevent religious wars in the Empire.
This settlement among the faithful will bring peace and understanding to Ethiopia, and will allow our land to flourish for many generations to come.
His Imperial Majesty Yohannes IV, Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah, King of Zion, King of Kings of Ethiopia and Elect of God
