We agree to allow your delegation access to our lands. We are also pleased to know that the war that has plagued our Islamic brothers in Afghanistan is coming to an end. We thank you for you offer to send a delegation to Konstantiyyne, and humbly accept.

The Bulgarian Tsar decides not to attend the event, instead focusing on working with the new People's part and Progressive Liberal Party Government, urging them to support the industrialization plan, currently focused on car construction. Besides that however, cities were growing in population, as well as an increase in timber production, causing people to move to them. The Tsar hoped that soon enough, villages would industrialize as well, allowing the creation of new cities across Bulgaria.

He also reread the government archives and discovered the Russians are technically at war with Serbia, sending a telegram to the Russians.

To: Nicholas II and Prime Minister Stolypin

It seems that you are still technically at war with the Serbs, though thankfully there are no casualties Russia has caused them nor any they caused you. It may be wise to negotiate peace, otherwise this little mishap will be buried in the archieves and the war drag on for decades, making both nations laughingstock of the politically mindful.

OOC: Technically, my action was shot down by mods, so there is no war.

Look, I do appreciate the use of Persian characters to communicate, it does add to the atmosphere somewhat...
But can we speak in English, my native language for now on please? Though I picked Persia I do not know how to actually speak Persian, and I don't wanna run through Translate every time...

Thank you in advance!

Perhaps the esteemed Persian Guardsman, Mohammad Taqi-Khan Pessain should've expected a renown King of an ever important country to be fluent in the speakings of other languages, even if Persian was perhaps not always considered the most popular within the world... But alas, the man would have expected that the Serbian Monarch would have found it easier to communicate in English rather than the native tongue, though it does indeed humble him that Peter I would attempt to do so.

Retaining some form of professionalism in front of the foreign King, Mohammad Taqi-Khan Pessain would have given a slow nod, before saying:

IMPORTANT OOC notice

As Persian is not a language I am familiar with, please assume that even though the text is in English, this conversation is actually being spoken in Persian, alright?

Mohammad Taqi-Khan Pessian
(In Persian) "You humble us, your royal highness... It is not commonly expected for foreigners to know the native tongue, even for those of your... Prestige, and so this comes as a pleasant surprise!

By any means, I believe that Iran can facilitate your request. Abadan has already prepared some immaculate rooms within the city's most prestigious Hotel, should you have wished to use it, which indeed seems to be the case!
Should you wish to travel there, we shall escort you as we will do for the journey to Tehran."

It indeed seemed like there would not have been long of waiting, for almost as soon as the Prince of Qajar Persia, Firouz Nosrat-ed-Dowleh III and his Motorcade delegation had arrived on the outskirts of the European-Asian city, the Serbian entourage seemingly of the Prince, Alexander I and guarded by some heavily trained - looking Guardsmen would emerge into sight.

And furthermore, the Iranians would hardly get even much time to prepare for the encounter... For they would almost be blindsided by the Serbian Prince as the royal personally approached the motorcade before introducing himself, in Persian:

Alexander of Serbia
(In Persian) "Peace be upon you Firuz Nusrat al-Dawla III. I am thankful that I can speak to you personally, we know that our countries have differences but meeting you is really gratifying, I hope this means a start between our nations."

For one, the Iranian Prince would not be too caught off guard by Alexander and his knowledge of Persian... However, he would feel a sense of appreciation for the Serb's efforts to speak in his Native Tongue, for though he would keep this to himself, he would not have learnt the Serbian language personally, so the situation certainly helps to avoid a sense of awkwardness that could have occurred.
With a genuine smile, and a respectful salute to the fellow monarch from his seat atop the Ford Model T, Firouz would return by saying:

Firouz Nosrat-ed-Dowleh III
(In Persian) "To speak in my mother tongue, your royal excellency Alexander is truly appreciated. I feel it also necessary to congratulate you on being able to speak Persian, no doubt it must be quite a difficult language to learn for a foreigner...
By any means, I too hope that despite the differences the Serbs and Iranians may share between each other, cooperation and perhaps even friendship can blossom. I have always been of the mind that the old ways of fighting due to religion as truly backwards and detrimental, though I often have to keep that mindset to myself, and it seems that you would agree with me.

Whomever is the true depiction of the Abrahamic deity, your 'God' and our 'Allah', the truth is neither would want to see us fight, both the Quran and the Bible urge friendship and cooperation over violence, no?
But by any means, I do talk too much... It has been a long journey already, so perhaps we can take up the local Ottoman Caliphate's offer of temporary lodging for our delegations, and rest for a day before making travel to Belgrade? Or, should you wish, we can continue onwards nevertheless, it is truly your prerogative."

[Sapim]

Tehran, Persian Empire

After a day of rest, King Peter I, His daughters and the rest of the delegation said goodbye to the Persian officer of Abadan and headed towards Tehran with some Persians who were curious about the presence of a foreign king in their land, the the last time the Persian lands were trodden by a foreign king was Alexander the Great.

During the trip to Tehran one of the King's daughters asks her father.

(translated from Serbian) My Father, we travel a long distance and we are traveling to the capital of a nation with a culture ... different from our desire to know why we are here?

---

(Translated from Serbian) We are here because the Persians were one of the Great Ancient Empires still in existence, they are wise, fair and extraordinarily warlike, it is always good to have a relationship with them I admire them, I respect them and I fear them.

Said King Peter I.

Thrace, Ottoman Empire

After a day of rest in Kostantiniyye The Prince Alexander I and The Persian Prince Firouz Nosrat-ed-Dowleh III were heading towards Belgrade, but first they would have to make a mandatory stop in Thrace to drink the region's famous liquor. that the liquor increased the person's vigor and well-being.

You didn't commit a serious offense here (LMAO I sound like a police officer!) however, I do wish to say that whilst I very well assume your intentions are honest, I'd rather you don't godmod my characters and their actions if you can help it, ye?
For instance, I assumed that Mohammad Taqi-Khan Pessain would be travelling with Peter I and his delegation to Tehran, his platoon guarding the motorcade from any potential... Mishaps, but you make it seem like Peter left Abadan without them...

Nothing serious, after all this isn't an actual Character RP, so not much harm done... But from now on, please take what i said into consideration, ye?

And so it would be, after a day's respite in a local Ottoman Hotel within Konstantiyyne, the joint Persian-Serbian entourage would have been driven from the Capital City, forwards towards Serbia...
The cars, the Ford Model T's of the Persians and the unknown model of the Serbian delegation would sure to have been slow, however... It took many a day on surprisingly well-paved and guarded Ottoman roads before their next stop would have emerged into view:

Cuma-ı Bala

Truthfully, little of note happened on their stop to the Muslim town, yet with an ever so prominent Bulgarian vibe to it... However, there was one small tidbit that may be mentioned.

On the way to the town, the Serbian Prince would not stop talking about "How great the liquor was" in the town, it seemed to Prince Firouz Nosrat-ed-Dowleh III that the Serbs had booze on the mind... Even though already established by the Iranians countless times beforehand, it would seem that Alexander I and his Entourage would have still forgotten the messages when they finally arrived, offering to share the booze with the Persians, of which the Qajar Persian Prince would have said rather blankly this time:

Prince Firouz Nosrat-ed-Dowleh III
(In Persian) "Your excellency Alexander, I must reiterate... The Islamic faith preaches the immorality of consuming alcohol, and urges for it to never be touched, and I intend to follow that guideline.

You may drink if you want, but please do not attempt to force either me or my compatriots to do so as well."

By any means, even that small mishap was not enough to spoil the mood, relatively... For soon enough, Cuma-ı Bala would disappear from view as the motorcade was on the road again... The well-developed Ottoman-built roads proved to become less and less well maintained the closer the entourage got to Serbia. It would be quite obvious now, the Balkan country would not be far away at all...

It seemed that, despite the major cultural differences that the Serbs and Iranians shared between each other, the Serbian King and his two daughters, and the Persian Rifleman of whom which is a so called Mohammad Taqi-Khan Pessain would have still found common ground, and pleasant conversation between each other during the aforementioned Serb Royals taking their stay within a Hotel for the night...

But soon, the Serbs were prepared to leave Abadan, and did so at their quickest opportunity, either looking forward to reaching Tehran... Or leaving Abadan.
As for Mohammad Taqi-Khan Pessain, he would have stayed for an unknown reason, though some hypothesise that he was told to do so by higher commanders to 'Root out and find any Serbian 'gifts' that might have been left behind'... Luckily, those fears proved to be unfounded, and the Persian Rifleman would have been personally annoyed that he had to miss on doing an honourable action of escorting the last Foreign King within the lands since the Timurid Dynasty to investigate so-called "unfounded claims".

Nevertheless, most of the platoon would have rode upon strong Persian cavalry alongside the Serbian motorcade as the plains of Khuzestan soon turned into the Iranian Barrier which was the mountains. Days went by in the mountains, stopping at some of the smallest villages that one could ever think of to resupply when needed, but eventually the treacherous journey would have been over after half a month of travel, Tehran emerging into view.

...

Truly, Tehran was bustling with the buzz of excitement, curiosity and perhaps even apprehension as final confirmation was truly given that the Serbian Royals would be soon present within it's grounds.
As the Serbian Entourage, guarded by the Persian Cavalry guard treaded mud through the streets of Tehran, people of all different backgrounds and classes would crowd around said streets... Many would be cheering for such a momentous occasion, some were silent, with constrained expressions of apprehension, perhaps even prejudice to the 'Eastern Orthodox Foreigners'...

All the whilst, the still relatively new Parliament and it's members would be prepared for the occasion... With the Serbian Entourage finally emerging into view from behind the crowd as it was escorted directly to the Parliamentary Building, Mohammad-Vali Khan Tonekaboni would stand with fellow parliamentarians atop a rich, marble looking balcony of the building... Soon enough, the microphone pre-prepared for them would cast a booming rendition of sir Vali Khan Tonekaboni's voice across the street, for the Serbian Royals to hear:
[ The Microphone was invented in 1876, if I remember correctly... It is not too farfetched to believe that rich Persian parliamentarians would have access to one or two, yes? ]

PM Mohammad Vali Khan
(In English) "I assume that we both know English, or at the very least I hope it to be the case?
I hope I am being respectful by not assuming that your royal Highness does not know Persian, yes?

By any means, I have... We have all been tenaciously waiting for your arrival! This is perhaps the first time a foreign King has stepped foot in Tehran since the Timurid conquest of the city so many centuries ago, so it is truly an honour!
Welcome to Iran! I hope Abadan, and the journey here did not cause too much trouble.

By any means, I sincerely doubt that his royal highness of Serbia would wish to be out in the heat of the capital, surrounded by our people for much longer, so I cordially invite you to meet with me, the Prime Minister of Qajar Persia and the rest of my faithful cabinet within this here very building.
And I apologise on the behest of his majesty, Ahmad Shah Qajar that he cannot be present to meet with Serbia's royalty... Last I had heard of him the Shah was in Zahedan, negotiating some truce between the Indians and Afghans to the East of our borders."

After a Long Journey Prince Alexander I and Prince Persian Firouz Nosrat-ed -Dowleh III finally arrive in Serbian territory, The Persian Prince's Curiosity would end up saying that the Car Prince Alexander I was in was a modified T-Ford with Serbian specifications. Before arriving in Belgrade, there was a Mandatory Stop in Skopje where the local population was already waiting for them, the city is divided between Orthodox and Sunnis (OOC: There are Muslims in Serbia thanks to the Ottoman influence in the region during their rise).

The Ottoman Expo delegation finally leaves Constantinople, their departure slowed by debates on whether the delegation should focus on Secular or Religious ideas. A compromise is finally reached, allowing both Mustafa Kemal and Mehmed VI to share their personal beliefs on the issue, though neither side is satisfied with the agreement. Within 3 days, they reach the newly annexed cituy of Plovdiv, and stop to rest in one of the city's hotels. Bickering continues between the Secular and Religous halves of the delegation, though an uneasy peace is maintained between the two.

The work on the Cross-Libyan highway continues. The process of constructing the highway from both ends inwards has sped up the project exponentially, and the eastern and western portions reach Sirte and Benghazi, respectively. The expansion of Libyan ports continue, as Libya's protectorate government is slowly assimilated into the Ottoman Empire.

And indeed, after the stone and asphalt of the Ottoman Empire's new roads translated very slowly to uncouth pathways of dried dirts and only ever the occasional waysign marking that there even was still a road to be followed close to the borders, once moreso the way would have changed in a rather surprisingly jarring way, true road meeting the eyes of the Serbian and Persian entourage to Belgrade once more as the border between the Ottoman Caliphate and the Kingdom of Serbia...
The few border guards that would have been patrolling the border at the time would not have at all caused trouble to the delegations, moreso any and all would rather just give the Princes respectful salutes and let them be on their way.

From then on out, it would not have taken too much of a relatively long time for the joint delegation to make it to Skopje...
Almost as quickly as the signs, the Serbian characters painted on them rather haphazardly saying it so, though of course the unfortunately illiterate Prince Firouz Nosrat-ed-Dowleh III, in the Serbian tongue would have never known without the next statement being uttered, the Serbian counterpart would soon enough inform him of this:

Crown Prince Alexander I of Serbia
"Ah finally, Welcome to Skopje a city divided between Orthodox and Sunnis, I know, I know that the Sunnis and Shias, you don't get along much more, (but) here the Sunnis cannot do anything against you without attacking me. If not, the Sunnis (would) have suffered retaliation from the Orthodox Serbs, we are in the territory of Serbia, they have to obey Serbian laws. As you can see the country is divided between Orthodox and Islamists, Skojpe is the Perfect Cultural Center, on the south side and the east side of the city is the orthodox part on the North side and West is the Sunni Part in the center is the Grand Market of the City. Our Final stop from here we will take a train to Belgrade. The railway will continue to Kostantiniyye thanks to the friendly efforts between us and the Ottomans."

With the address that the Serbian Prince had given to the Iranians aboard given, some slight intrigue would have settled within the group... The Entourage had just before passed through two separate Ottoman Caliph cities, of which both the Sunni populations of Konstantiyyne and Cuma-ı Bala had little trouble to pick on with the group, to both the Orthodox Christian Serbian delegation and the Shia Islamic Iranians, so what is with the need of mentioning such now?
Unless, of course the Muslims of Skopje are more radical than their Ottoman counterparts, which would be... Ironic, but that would be neither here nor there...

By any means, Prince Fioruz Nosrat-ed-Dowleh III would soon respond to Alexander with his thoughts aloud, being:

Prince Firouz Nosrat-ed-Dowleh III
(In Persian) "I appreciate the word of warning, your excellency, but I hope that any fears shall be unfounded.
The Shia and Sunni may have their differences in who they followed in the schism that was the Prophet's death, but there is no need to remind you that such event took place over a millennia ago, the world's moved on. Just as I would be willing to overlook any prejudgments of the Eastern Orthodox faith, the same applies for our Sunni brothers and sisters...

By any means, we had traveled through Ottoman lands before Skopje, which are quite Sunni indeed, no? And I would be hoping that if we hadn't found trouble in Konstantiyyne and Cuma-ı Bala due to such, neither will we in Skopje. Let us travel through this grand Makedonija city then, I am rather anxious indeed to take this train to Belgrade, and thus mark what may be the beginning of the prestigious Exhibition of which your capital is hosting... I can only hope that the motorcade, including these motor-driven carriages can be either kept safely in Skopje, or otherwise may be able to be brought to Belgrade alongside."

Atop the balcony of the Parliamentary building of which his honour, Prime Minister Mohammad-Vali Khan Tonekaboni would be standing, having just before given an address to the Royal Serbian entourage to the city, he would have been able to catch the Serbian King, Peter I talking not in English, or Serbian... But in Persian, surprisingly fluent at that.
For him, this would bring a small mix of emotions, mainly of respect and. Would proud be the correct word? But also the slightest hint of annoyance as well. For the PM and his Cabinet would have been content with using the native tongue to communicate in commentary on the rather interesting subjects that no doubt would be brought up, but perhaps some other medium would need to be used...

In regards to that, whilst Peter I of Serbia and his Royal delegation would still speak to the crowds below, he would speak to his flanking cabinet with:

Mohammad-Vali Khan Tonekaboni
(In Persian) "It is impressive that the Serbian monarch knows Persian to this level, would you not agree...
(*sigh*) That does put a small dent in our plans though. We shall need a new medium to comment, no?

ایا هر څوک دلته په پښتو خبرې کولی شي؟ "
(Can everyone here speak Pashto?)

Iranian Parliamentarians
(In Pashto) "Yes, I suppose most of us do... I guess you'd want us to make commentary in. Well, this tongue, no? As to avoid his royal highness, Peter I in catching onto what we would be discussing...
Let us hope that the Serbian wouldn't understand the Afghani language, then. Realistically, would he?"
PM Mohammad Vali Khan
(In Pashto) "I would not think so, what business would he have in knowing the tongue of a landlocked, weak country?"

...
Later in the day...

The Royal Parliamentary Building truly was buzzing with an atmosphere that is a rarity for the place... For such an important entourage to be entering not only Tehran, but also the hallowed halls of the building would be a new concept indeed. In the background, a great banquet would have been in the works of being prepared by some of the finest chefs of Tehran for the occasion, always the best to create a lasting, positive impression of Persia to their visitors, especially of the Eastern Orthodox, Balkan verity. Many great Iranian men and women, not only politicians but those who were rich enough, and interested enough to join in with the occasion, from the greatest of Landowning Families, such as the Pahlavi to the independent parties within.
By any means, it would not take long at all for the Serbian Royal Delegation to be welcomed into the building, personally by his honour Mohammad-Vali Khan Tonekaboni with this introduction:

PM Mohammad Vali Khan
(In Persian) "Revered Peter I of Serbia, once again we must say that it is truly such an honour to see you within Tehran! We may not truly know of what your intentions are here, but we can only assume that it is a positive force of which drove you from Belgrade to the Iranian capital.

(*ahem*) I hope it will not be too unorthodox to say this right now, but I must compliment you on how fluently you seem to know this native tongue.
But now, I suppose you don't wish to be standing here all day as we chat your ear off, your royal majesty? In whatever case, I must inform you that only the best rooms have been prepared for such honoured guests within these hallowed walls, I can only hope they would suit your standards. Already being prepared as we speak shall be a great banquet indeed for all of us on this fine occasion.

However, perhaps you would be inclined to begin with what you wish to have been done for this visit, no? If so, please allow us to escort you to a suitable room to begin with whatever discussions you would fancy, before the banquet preparations are completed and we would all be called for that event in the near future. We sincerely hope that Serbia comes to Iran with good intentions, and that whatever occurs here will be a true beginning of mutual acceptance, perhaps even cooperation between two of the most prestigious realms of both Eastern Orthodox and Shia Islamic faith."

Crown Prince Alexander I of Serbia
(In Persian) "(Laughter) Don't worry about your car Prince Firouz he'll be on the freight train that comes after we get to Belgrade."

After the Princes Alexander and Firouz boarded the train took off for Belgrade, the all-luxury train worthy of receiving two Princes. The First Two Cars are the Red Berets and a morse code machine to send messages to Belgrade or Receive from Belgrade, in the third and fourth are the Kitchen and Restaurant Cars and in the fifth and sixth cars are the room where the two princes can chat and the rooms. As they board the prince looks intently at the embarkation and disembarkation platform as if something was bothering him he speaks to two guards in Rusyn a language native to the Slavic regions that the Prince Firouz has no knowledge of.

(In Rusyn) "I suspect the Black Hand is here, I want reinforcements in Belgrade Urgently."

Soldiers:"It will be done my prince"

Belgrade-Skopje Railway

On the way to Belgrade a telegram in Morse code arrives at the train containing the following message.

"Your Royal Highness Alexander I come to inform you that your older brother George was murdered this morning in Belgrade By the terrorist group known as the Black Hand in one of the captured terrorists there is information that they plan to attack the train your Highness and Prince Firouz are on upon arriving in Belgrade and murdering you and murdering your father King Peter I in Tehran, the 5th Tank Division and the 9th Motorized Infantry Division already reinforce the station in Belgrade and the same message is being transmitted to the Persian government.

Regards

Prime-Minister Anto Ivanov."

Prince Alexander punches the table angrily drawing the attention of Prince Firouz to whom Prince Alexander explains the situation in Turkmen the second Persian language..

Crown Prince Alexander

(In Turkmen)"It is better in Turkmen than Persian, in 1906 a group of 10 people formed an anti-Austrian-Hungarian organization called the Black Hand, the aim was to take all the Baltic countries occupied by the Austrians and form the great Serb but my father sent a message to Austrian government to which the cells of the group in the region occupied by Austria were dissolved, they discovered the betrayal of the king and vowed revenge, this movement has the participation of Sunni Serbs for that reason the concern in Skopje. I just received a telegram in Morse code that my brother was murdered that morning he was at the expo's site arranging the last details, The Red Berets are at your disposal to protect you, when we arrive in Belgrade you will go directly to the Royal Palace rooms ready just for you and your delegation does not go out at night, the city will be turned over by the army in search of murderers."

OOC

The terrorist group black hand was only founded in 1911 but as we are a year before, I'm advancing, yes this group was supposed to be pro-Serbian but I'm doing anti-Serbian ok.
