"One Glorious"

"On whole world
Red flags are falling
By our spoken word
They are to ashes turning
One victorious
Axis is standing
Alliance glorious

Nations uniting!
Come my friends face red fewer
The time is high, to see world newer
Arising from ashes, arising from armies

Arising from our victories!
When we united
Whole world trembled
In fear they waited

Now we make evil bleed!
In glory we reclaim
What ours once was
It will give us eternal fame

The time come has!
Come my friends face red fewer
The time is high, to see world newer
Arising from ashes, arising from armies

Arising from our victories!"

Security Council:
- (Recently May) Chat Room password had been changed!
- (13/5) Kyokuzo is announced as the 3rd Supervisor. (Announcement by Sabah, outgoing Secretary General)
- Notice on Axis-United Left relations.
- Axis Intergovernmental Meeting has just ended.

Having written that, inactive members too risk expulsion from this organization.

Describe your nations policies toward human rights issues: (LGBT, religious freedom, etc): If you were to compare Elmerna with many other NS nations, we would probably receive a fairly low number. Homosexuality and many other perversions are illegal and punishable by many ways. From jail time for gay rights activists, to public execution of pedophiles and zoophiles on live TV, we generally don't tolerate the whole sexual revolution movement. Women receive the same employment and status rights as men, and are even allowed to serve in the military. Religious freedom is allowed and tolerated. However, atheism is virtually non-existent. As the Elmernan Falangist Party sees atheism as a precursor to a decadent leftist state.

I presume a third summit nears, am I right?

I guess. Though someone else this time would have to host that meeting. (Not summit, when we call it that, bad things happen)

Well who would do it? Perhaps I could.

Nah, if we can agree to what issues we need to discuss first then we'll hold it, going in randomly only for a chit chat is a waste of time.

I'm intervening in Bashria soon. We should annihilate Ardoki forces there. It doesn't have to be a formal declaration of war against the UL, also we're not attacking Ardoki homeland.

Damn, peace treaty.

[Lithuanian Empire]

Yellow everyone.

[Asigna]

Yellow everyone.

My friends, prepare for war. I'm afraid it is so soon but depending on what happens next, we would have to fight.

Fine by me. Haven't had a good war for a while.

[Ostrii Federation]

I am going to crush his army.

[Syrusia (Ancient)]

I am going to crush him.

I'm going to force Ardoki to withdraw from Bashria.

[Asigna]

I am going to crush him.

We have to know first if the United left has sanctioned this rhetoric. We couldn't be sure if it was just him.

I am going to crush him.

I'm going to force Ardoki to withdraw from Bashria.

Join forces! Let's go comrade! Fierce!

[Whiteshore]

We should send a warning to the UL!

[Asigna]

We should send a warning to the UL!

Luckily we already did.

[Ostrii Federation]

I CAN FEEL IT! COMING IN THE AIR TONIGHT!
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT FOR ALL MY LIFE!

He's doing it again. We almost signed peace agreement with him during Gran Chile - Ardoki conflict. Then he bombed his capital to stall the peace process.

Now in Bashria, when peace is almost agreed, he broke the truce, again, (if there is any) and starts his warmongering stunt again.

If we let him live this time he's only going to do it again. He doesn't want peace. He wants death.

[Whiteshore]

The barbarians who call themselves "Ardoki" should pay for their behavior.
