Rosa leaves the car, standing up tall and letting her greatcoat hang over her statuesque frame. "Privyet."

She is greeted by Chairman Yanko, the Gypsy of Bulgaria.
"Latcho, Ms. Shikinova." he says smiling, reaching out for a hand shake. "How are you this fine evening?"

"I'm doing quite well, thanks," she smiles back. "But I must confess I'm more than fascinated about your sudden reaching out. Tell me, what's on your mind?"

[Togeria]

After the meeting an agreement is reached between Meritist and the monarchy. The constitution is to be rewritten to take into account both the problems of today as well as reach out and provide aid for future decision in the far future a failure that the previous constitution tried to take into account. The new constitution is dubbed the Invictus Liberatem.

The biggest change in the constitution is the appointment of a prime minister. After a vote by the senate and house of man and to the surprise of many, Falon Mer has taken position as the 25th Prime Minister of Togerium and unlike previous decades where the position of Prime Minster was made as a symbolic title or used in position the Prime Minister will be given powers by the senate to aid in the management of the domestic as well as foreign policies.

"Well, we don't seem to share the same views and goals as our current allies. They have become irrational and violent. And seeing as how we share many cultural similarities as it is, I was hoping we could form an alliance."

[Republic Under Specters Grasp]

The SG, readied for war on Brazil, unleash their weapons onto the Brazillian lands, striking with modified TAM's, firing down rockets, artillery, and mortars onto the city of Pelotas, sending hell down the border cities, pushing in with their light tanks, light attack heli's, and TAM's, alongside Canberra's and Pucara's, bombarding and also firing on any quickly set up AA weapons,

"With Volkstrad, you mean? Interesting.. I'm personally miffed they haven't been criticized for their arms buildup in regards to a defensive nation such as us, but oh well." She grins, her good old wolf teeth showing. "I'd be overjoyed to form an alliance with your charming little nation. You're like us, only in miniature!"

She grins, her good old wolf teeth showing. "I'd be overjoyed to form an alliance with your charming little nation. You're like us, only in miniature!"

Yanko gives a warm smile at this.
"So, shall we drive and discuss the terms of our alliance? Or would you rather walk and view our city?"

"We can do both, I assume?"

[Union of Socialist Puterrepubliks]

With the guerrilla war having tied down, the Sakhandar Socialist Union begins being able to effectively issue its first policies, now that it has control over most of the nation. The police are ordered to detain any parents found to be forcing their religious beliefs on their children, and mosques are now taxed by the government.

The USP entirely finds the development of many mines and extraction sites, seeking to develop the vast but currently untouched mineral wealth hid away in Sakhandar's many mountains.

Blackwood will accept this contract, we will be soon operating, expect the mission to be done soon.

With this and a big payoff to Iran, Blackwood forces set up an FOB and resupply point. Smuggling runs are made in the night along with supply drops from transport planes to the rebels.

"We can do both, I assume?"

"As you wish, you are our esteemed guest afterall"

"Good. So, there are many things we'd love to do to establish closer connections with a like-minded nation, especially one such as yourself, but tell me - what does Romuva want from this?"

[Union of Socialist Puterrepubliks]

The mujahideen are still very much active in Sakhandar, but with the Soyuza People's Air Force still fully deployed, they are hit every day with airstrikes and raids from the fearsome Mil-24. Despite this, they manage to keep up recruitment from the disaffected adult population of Sakhandar, and with these new arms shipments, are able to carry out raids again for the first time.

Within a few weeks, they manage to attack a Soyuza oil convoy, killing ten escorting soldiers. Surprised by this sudden increase in combat ability, the Spetsnaz are ordered to immediately investigate.

"Good. So, there are many things we'd love to do to establish closer connections with a like-minded nation, especially one such as yourself, but tell me - what does Romuva want from this?"

"Mostly? A friend we can trust." he says softly. "Don't get us wrong, Volkstrad is a fine ally, but they're mostly after influencing us and keeping us under their sphere of influence."

Rosalina grins. "I could say things that wouldn't be.. constructive, but I've spent enough years already cursing their bizarre form of despotism. We'd be more productive, I'd hope - housing, fuel, armaments, education, even population transfers - we can supply all."

[Togeria]

Under Falon a new set of reforms are called to take place called the "Statera" from the Athran word meaning balance. Under her several new developments are to be taken under place with focus in the coming years to be taken along the African coast in Carthage, Nubia, and Egypt. Several new jobs have been created with process of irrigating the more deserty lands within the empire as give more access to agriculture in the region as a similar process in occurring within Palestine.

The sewer system is to scheduled to go under overhaul as several massive centers called Igvums are to be built within Gaul, Britannia, Palestine, Anatolia, Carthage, and Athran. The goal is to collect all the waste within the region that goes through the sewers and collect them in massive purification plants which will then purify the water on a near industrial scale as the recycled waste is converted to water precisely 67% of it is to be sent back to the neighboring rivers.

Within the Mediterranean studies are going into hydroelectric energy while in Gaul much of the energy is going into nuclear facilities which are routinely checked. Much of Falon's reforms are focused on conservation, alternative energy, easing domestic relations between provinces, as well ending the countries long held reliance on oil as fuel.

As said by Falon,"The rest of the world can wait. In order to truly help the world as a superpower we must usher a new day and set a example that all the world can follow."

Soon some rebels would be able to receive special operations training and can conduct many missions that are needed by them. The Blackwood logo wouldn't be able to be seen anywhere and all the ID numbers on the weapons would be filed off or just not there.

"That sounds amazing, what would you want in this alliance?"

"That sounds amazing, what would you want in this alliance?"

"We want a nation like Cascadia. One that takes care of its people and stands up for itself, but is still an extremely trustworthy military and economic partner."

[Romuva]

"That sounds amazing, what would you want in this alliance?"

"We want a nation like Cascadia. One that takes care of its people and stands up for itself, but is still an extremely trustworthy military and economic partner."

Yanko nods "We can provide that. And if you were to open trade with us, we could give you resources from the Mediterranean."

[Union of Socialist Puterrepubliks]

The USP feels threatened by Togerium's ever growing status but does congratulate these reforms, finding them eerily similar to the irrigation processes that took place to help make Central Asia more green, literally.

With the training and weaponry soon becoming apparent due to higher fatalities of SNA soldiers, the USP determines that a foreign nation must be supplying the mujahideen - because of the covert nature, Volkstrad seems most likely. Airstrikes are stepped up even more, with a total of 500 aircraft active in Sakhandar.

[Vukmire]

The Blackwood focus switches to SAM and MANPADs to aid the rebels in dealing with this Airborne threat that looms over them, Blackwood constantly switches it's logistic and supply routes as well.

Yanko nods "We can provide that. And if you were to open trade with us, we could give you resources from the Mediterranean."

"That sounds good ~ plus we'd have almost exclusive control of the Golden Sea.. well that's Black for you, I believe. Good, good.."

Yanko nods "We can provide that. And if you were to open trade with us, we could give you resources from the Mediterranean."

"That sounds good ~ plus we'd have almost exclusive control of the Golden Sea.. well that's Black for you, I believe. Good, good.."

Yank shakes his head in agreement.
"So how do you like Athens thus far?"

[Union of Socialist Puterrepubliks]

With the first Mil-24 losses in many months, the USP is infuriated by this support, and worried by the threat to its formerly unchallenged airpower. Air raids carry on with increased intensity, no matter the losses.

Lead by 800 Spetsnaz, 20,000 troops of the Sakhandar National Army begin their first ground sweep since the end of the Soyuza-led war. They are lead by T-72 tanks and equipped with BTR-60 armored personnel carriers.
