As leaders, your job is to guide your people. Despite what ideologies you might hold dear, are we safe to assume that you all want what is best for your people, in your own ways? We're not going to pretend to know what your people want, but we highly doubt they want nuclear holocaust. Your war is going to cost millions of lives. And if you do not stop using nuclear weapons, your population will be eradicated by all out war between the communities, possibly other nations.
We do not want a nuclear war. That will only make things worse. We believe that the best option is to lay down your arms and to negotiate. Not with us, but with each other. You are a nation that values strength and valor. Where will your strength be when you're nothing but radiation and ash?
If you cannot see past your differences and must resort to war remember this: we will not tolerate the use of nuclear weapons. They are a threat to the lives of our citizens, who we are sworn to protect, just as you are sworn to protect yours. Do not use nuclear weapons, you will only escalate the war. Then we will have to be forced to pick a side and you shall lose your chance at having a nation with your ideals. And the empire has power of its own.
So this is our deal, negotiate with each other or at least use only conventional weapons and we will leave you alone. If you do not do that, we will intervene.

Dear Friends,
With the collapse of POD, I believe it is in our best interest to assist each other in this endeavor. My nation has already offered the PODians a deal, one which I included within this notice. Our nations should be united together should the PODians refuse to stop using nuclear weapons. My nation has not dealt with POD much, but we do know that they value military might greatly. Some insight into the men ruling the communities would be appreciated.

From: The Military Council of Rhodevus
Generals, you have risen to the top ranks in the government that was once the dictatorship POD and have split from amongst each other; your comrades in arms to wage war in support of your faction and state. We do not and cannot support such hostilities without any semblance of diplomacy.
What is even riskier and detrimental is the blatant usage of nuclear arms. Such devices have been considered crimes against humanity for a very long time and with good reason. We urge you to at least respect this one international law and resort to conventional weaponry. Your nuclear arsenals are huge and have the strength to wipe out life on this planet. Please do not allow the winner of your war to lead a country of ash and tinder.
Rhodevus does not tolerate the use of nuclear weaponry and will not support any faction which uses these or other WMDs in this conflict.
To: The Leadership of Rezua
From: The Military Council of Rhodevus
Friends and allies, the situation in the dictatorship is growing more worrisome by the moment. Attached is our message to the Dictatorship POD. While we also cannot stand the use of nuclear weaponry, we do not believe that the factions will be able to, or even want to sit down and talk. Military culture is too engrained in them to think of diplomacy before war. All we can do now is hope they hear our messages and respond.
We will also be in contact with other nations whom are trade partners and allies with POD. It is our hope to institute a global ban on trade with the dictatorship in order to reduce their capacity for war.
Good luck and may we continue to work together in this approaching disaster.
To: Global Trade Partners of POD
From: The Government of Rhodevus
Leaders and governments from around Sunalaya. We make up a handful of important nations for this conflict which has come about in the Dictatorship POD. We are the ones whom import and export with the country. Our trade is their sustenance and lifeblood.
In such a massive civil war as this, our lifeblood is all the more important to them. It is the hope of this government that you will join us in a complete trade ban on the Dictatorship for the duration of the civil war. We must stand together to stop our materials and supplies from increasing their capacity to wage war on themselves and our money to fuel their armies.
They have already resorted to the usage of WMDs, the lowest form of warfare. If this ban takes place, we can cripple their ability for a prolonged conflict. This will either starve them out enough to talk, or will force them to talk with us. Let us work together for a better and safer tomorrow.

Mister Prime Minister,
While the preamble of the message we have received from your government seemed to show a genuine care concerning the people of the communities, it has failed to mask your underhanded threats towards the communities, and to Renedge in particular. While I do understand it is a leader's duty to protect those under his command, it is firstly his duty to lead his people forward to a better future. It is my first duty to ensure the undying freedom of my people, which is why I must see to it that the communities answer solely to Renedge.
You see, a conventional war with between the communities would cost many more lives than that of a nuclear war. When a community is at war, you cannot stop it with words or bodies; you must remove their very will to fight. We can do this to Senns by destroying one or two cities in proverbial hell-fire, whereas a conventional conflict will only perpetually strengthen the resolves of each community, causing a war that could last for generations rather than one that has ended in days.
I would much rather slaughter a million in an instant than allow the needless deaths of billions over centuries.
I leave you with this to ponder:
Is it truly a war if we show restraint? If we do not commit to fast, precise, and brutal strikes, are we fighting a war? This is no war. This is merely a disagreement within the family. A feud of sorts. One day, perhaps, this infighting will devolve into war. If it does, I promise you, it will end swiftly.

While we have yet to interfere with the affairs of Renedge and Senns, I fear it is indeed inevitable that Towns will be drawn into this conflict. While your concern is well founded, it would seem that you are warning of taking action when such is avoidable. It may be that taking action will only put your people in greater harm and it may be that greater harm could come to your people if you do not take action. I would advise that you gather information on Stroman's goals before you take either course. Perhaps the wisest decision you could make would be for you to prepare for the worst possible outcome while praying to God that you never see the day you need to use what you have prepared.
While I will not betray a fellow community by revealing sensitive information, I will state the following. General Stroman's use of a single nuclear device is a show of great restraint for such a man. In the history of Sunalaya, only one man has shown greater restraint, and I am pleasantly surprised to see that Senns continues to exist. I am reminded of a saying of Stroman's, one he said on what seemed a daily basis. "There is no sight more glorious and pure than that of the rising glow of a fusion bomb."

While I may respect you, and even agree with your sentiment concerning this sparking conflict; I would advise that you do not freely give General Stroman what he would wish to accomplish. I would further advise that you, for your own sakes, tone down any future communications with Renedge, as to not give him the proverbial ammunition he would seek.
I find it necessary to remind you of the history of the communities. You must keep in mind that the communities need a challenge to overcome, or they will develop such a challenge. The communities were, before the arrival of the Rhodeve Empire, constantly at war, with these current ideological differences as their same cause. Only when the Rhodeve Empire arrived did they have a common singular goal. It was only a short time after they accomplished this goal that infighting once again began to show itself. When communism began a rather potent forces in the world, that infighting ceased in the face of yet another universal goal. There is no such goal at this current time, which is what both Stroman and Knochenmus hope to achieve; a common aim.
I advise that you not make your empire our common foe, as the Rhodeve Empire did once before. Apart our communities will not thrive, this is true; but woe to those who drive them to unity.

To whom it may concern,
It would be dangerously naive to believe that our camaraderie is forgotten. While we may have been brothers in arms, and some of us even friends; our decisions must be made selflessly, resolutely, and swiftly for the benefit of the communities as a whole. I intend to ensure the safety and security of the people of Renedge by whatever means are necessary. Diplomacy is always occurring among the communities, even now we are negotiating with the others concerning the matter. Unlike the Rhodeve Commonwealth or the Rezuan Empire, however, we are not idle when we speak. We do not forgo war to talk peace, nor do we forgo peace talks to go to war, we readily do both simultaneously.
As to answer for our use of nuclear weaponry, we do not threaten acts, we simply commit to them. Now our willingness to resort to such tools cannot be denied.
Why should we, the communities, respect an international law we were not a party to? Why should your willingness or unwillingness to resort to such methods determine our own willingness. We are different countries because we hold to different laws.
While it may be distressing, there was never any way to prevent the use of weapons of mass destruction in this conflict. They could be used either preemptively or defensively. I would rather be preemptive than wait to use them on our own cities to hinder a hostile advance. I will see that this conflict ends with minimal bloodshed, and I will willingly sacrifice thousands to save millions, even though you may not be so willing.

I would think that a former ally of The Dictatorship would understand the communities better than you portray in your message to us. You should well know that we have never subjected ourselves to the bonds of laws that are not our own, nor have we subjected others to laws that were not there own. I cannot assure you that Towns will not resort to the use of WMDs or WMEs, but I can tell you this; when even a lowly rat feels as though it has no other recourse, it will bite the assaulting hand. It would be conceptually impossible to win a war with any community by resorting only to conventional arms. I can assure you that, in a global conflict, nobody would "win" a WMD war. I can also assure you that the use of WMDs in our currently rising conflict is the only hope we have of ending a war at all.
Perhaps this conflict will finally end the centuries long internal strife of the communities. Or perhaps you will get what you have asked for and this strife will simply be swept under the proverbial rug again, only to be uncovered in a future with even deadlier weapons.

It would seem that the communities have found themselves in a situation that your people should find rather familiar. The only difference between the communities your old empire invaded and the communities, as you see them now, is the advancement of technology. For several generations now, the communities were held together by their fear of being overwhelmed by another upstart global empire. Now that such a fear has subsided, the war of ideologies has resumed. The world has become unstable enough that the communities find no need to fear such a force.
Before committing to any course of action, I would advise that you revisit our two nations' histories.

Dear leaders,
It has come to my concern that something must be done about the ongoing crisis in The Dictatorship. I believe that in order to resolve this, it must be an effort of all of us, as we are stronger together, and weaker separate. This is why I'm requesting for a meeting between our leaders in Center City to discuss how we are to handle the crisis before it gets out of hand. It is important, now more than ever, to work together to create a solution that minimizes casualties and destruction. Please respond as soon as you can, as we cannot afford to waste time right now.

To the most honorable General Knochenmus of the Community of Towns,
His Royal Highness Balthnir Kruzed wishes to personally express his deep shock at the unprovoked attack which occurred last night and wishes to offer his deepest sympathies for the war which has now met your people. In light of the circumstances, it would seem prudent that our peoples seek to cooperate in the restoration of peace in The Communities. We understand the Community of Renedge is led by an unstable man and in charge of a large arsenal of nuclear weapons. In our endeavor to see the use of these weapons confined to the pages of history, we implore the Community of Towns to accept this message as a sign of friendship and support.

Both His Royal and Imperial Highness Kaiser Siegfried I and the entirety of the Englean Kaiserreich would like to express shock at the attack on your community. It is quite unfortunate that your military forces and your populace must be thrust into the conflict so soon, and the Kaiserreich - as another nation that values honour in battle - would like to extend friendly relations to secure a peace within the former Dictatorship. The Abwehr has already listed the Commander of the Community of Renedge as a threat to both the world and your communities, and would like to assist you in the effort to secure a victory on the side of Towns. The Oberkommando der Wehrmacht has noted that Towns stands in the best interests of the Kaiserreich, and has approved support of your community by the forces of the Wehrmacht and Abwehr. We hope that our two nations may emerge victorious over the powers of evil, and are able to reach a conclusion that is positive for the both of our interests.

The Kaiserreich agrees with your statement on the subject of the Dictatorship POD. Our nations must work together to defeat the common enemy, General Stroman. It would be in the interest of our nations to establish a meeting within a neutral city for our nations to conclude on a solution, and I agree on the choice of Center City. The Oberkommando der Wehrmacht concludes that it would be in the best of interests to support the Community of Towns, for the community has the capability of resolving this conflict relatively quickly.

Mister Prime Minister,
While I do appreciate your gesture, and will accept your ambassador's presence, I cannot guaranty that a diplomatic solution will be quickly found. What is at hand is a conflict that was destined to occur for over a century. When the Rhodeve Empire landed its troops on our shores, it was fear of them that drove our communities together. The attempt of the Rhodeve Empire to colonize the communities marked the first time in which the communities feared an outside force more than themselves. It was fear that drove the communities together and it was that same fear that held them together for so long. It is not that this fear has ceased, but that this fear has been outweighed. The communities are more fearful of one another than they are of the rest of the world as a whole.
If you can resolve this fear, you have found a peaceful resolution to our war.

Mister Ashlon,
Your shock at our current predicament shows that you understand little of General Stroman. What should be "shocking" to you was his commitment to a ground battle when he would much prefer to use his nuclear weapons. This is what is concerning to me. I do assure you, as long as General Stroman is in command of Renedge, nuclear weapons will be a factor of the modern age. I can also assure you that, should Stroman make the foolish mistake of detonating one of his devices within Towns, I will use my own arsenal to turn Renedge into plate glass.
While I would accept your message as a sign of good will, if this situation is as dire as you state, I ask that you chose a side and offer some true assistance.

I would firstly state that I am grateful for your offered support in this conflict. And while I am grateful, I must ask, why is the community of Towns in the best interest of the Kaiserreich? While I trust the sincerity of the statement, I must look ahead to the future of my people. Would I be correct in assuming that we are in your best interest solely due to our military capabilities?
I must also ask, what support can we expect to receive from the Kaiserreich? Material support? Manpower? You see, I must know these things to develop a proper strategy to eliminate the threat at hand.
I would also have you understand that, should you deploy forces to this theater, we must maintain an order in which your forces are deployed to match the strategic situation. I know the capabilities of my forces and I must know the full extent of the capabilities of the forces you deploy.

General Knochenmus,
I would first like to apologize for the message sent previously by the military council of Rhodevus. No so much as what had been said was untrue, but that it was required to be framed in such a way as to bring forth a reaction from as many provincial leaders as possible.
Rhodevus and the Dictatorship have long been allies and due to more recent events, our alliance had been fractured. The dictatorship is in the midst of a massive civil war and Towns is lacking in a necessary department; that being industry. Something Rhodevus can potentially help with.
I would like to officially request a meeting between myself and you, to be held in a location of your choosing. Discussion should focus on potential contributions Rhodevus can make to your province as well as the course for the future relations between POD and Rhodevus. Your province is strong with a large portion of the population and as you are no doubt aware, my country has long had a history of siding with the people and what may be best for them. So, please think over this offer and respond when you are able.
We are both military minds and thus think like soldiers. We can cut through the formalities face to face and judge each other upfront, in ways we cannot do in carefully worded letters such as these.
With Respect,
Princess Heir, Sierra Everen-Abrams

My government and I wish to support the community of Lee in this conflict. I believe that Governor Sternberg is our wish bet. He is open to diplomatic talks, which could help avoid future wars. It also makes it easier for us to talk to him in the future. Sternberg will return POD to its old system, where it will not act much past a few muscle flexes. Other men would expand the power of POD. We want to cripple that ability. Unlike General Knochenmus who is old, Sternberg will live more than a few more months and can cement his power over time. This will allow power to pass more peacefully to the next man who will govern. I also believe that Sternberg will be more generous to his people.
However...in the event that this is not an option, we must consider supporting General Stroman. While an evil and vile man, he would beat down any who challenge him. He seems to be content with what POD is but might possibly invade others. I don't know, but he could stop future wars in POD from happening. We can't put in a man who will be overthrown. I don't think Stroman would be. Still...I despise this man. I despise his use of nuclear weapons. I hate everything he stands for. And I hate that I'm even considering him as an option. I truly believe Sternberg is the best option but...sometimes we must sacrifice the minority in order to protect the majority.

Ma'am,
I would be grateful for any and all support provided to Towns. As to be clear, the industrial needs of Towns are simple, we require ammunition. We are unable, as you are aware, to maintain our ammunition stockpiles in a conventional conflict with the other communities. Within two weeks, at our current rate, our hands will be forced and we will be required to resort to non-conventional means. The result would be the mass deployment of Weapons of Mass Effect.
Once again, I emphasize that our needs are conventional munitions. As a matter of security, I request that any meeting occur within the NCC located in Fort Lee. Due to the Fort Lee treaty, any national official being sent to or from Fort Lee will have combat immunity and will not be fired on by the communities. As this is a time of war, you will be mandated to travel with an armed escort of no more or fewer than ten men. Fort Lee is the only location in which your safety can be guarantied.

It would seem, to myself that your nation's government has sent us two separate messages, one encrypted and addressed to myself as well as one not encrypted and sent to every community.

You have made clear, to the community of Towns, your underhanded nature and serpent's tongue, and as such, your nation's personnel and material, will be targeted for elimination on sight.
You have been duly warned.

Mister Grayson,
It is my hope that this message is truly sincere, though I do have some concern with both messages being sent. It is my advice to your government not to communicate with the communities in such ways, as some are more wary than myself at a government that sends un-encrypted messages followed by encrypted messages. This presents your nation, to the communities, as untrustworthy and double-minded.
I do hope, for your people's sake, that General Stroman was not sent an encrypted message such as we received.
With the matter of communicating with the communities being finished, I do move on.
While I would rather diplomacy succeed on its own, without conflict, such is simply not possible with the communities. For our people, simple words and delayed actions mean nothing. One must act even as they speak to propel diplomacy with the communities, which is why while we speak we wage war until the dispute is resolved. We will be working to align the others against a common foe, though progress has been slow as of yet.

Empress Ymira, we have red over your message and have reached our own verdict and decisions as well. To start with the point of least contention, General Stroman can never and will never gain the support of Rhodevus. His continuous and open use of nuclear arms and other weapons of mass destruction automatically bars him from Rhodeve support as per Bill 187 section a. of the Ministry of International Affairs Dossier on Support and Aid (written 1971). Even without such a bill, this General Stroman is a militaristic man who would more likely attack us come his victory in POD, than continue with peace.
As for General Knochenmus and Governor Sternberg, we have come to an impasse. The general is old, but he is strong enough to unite the people of POD once more. The governor wishes to continue with the old system of governance in the dictatorship, but as can be seen by what is currently happening, we will be setting up POD for another potential conflict. We believe a new system might be better. The general however is old as you have pointed out. I will be travelling along with the Minister of International Affairs to POD to meet with the general and his successor to discuss plans and the potential for future support and supplies.
We will also be discussing Lee and Governor Sternberg. It is believed that he would make a good politician in the system which the Towns Faction is supporting. He might also make a potential strong close advisor and aid, given his aptitude for diplomacy. The main reason he cannot have my support over the general per se, is that he veils threats based on age old knowledge. It is believed that he is trying to return POD to an old system that we can see does not work in the long run.
May we discuss face to face in the coming future,
Sierra Everen-Abrams

General Knochenmus,
We will be open to a meeting in Fort Lee to be scheduled for two day’s time. Along with myself and an assortment of soldiers and royal guards, the Minister of International Affairs, John Jones will be attending as well. It is my request that along with you and assortment of soldiers and guards, you bring with the man or woman you believe should be or is your heir and future successor. Without the meaning of offense, you are aging and in order to build a strong foundation in a potential alliance between us and our nations, I would like to meet the person who will be succeeding you to make sure that all our interests are aligned.
On the matter of munitions and supplies, a contingent of cargo aircraft will be sent to Towns from the West in 48-50 hours from the time this message has been sent. All aircraft will be carrying ammunition and other munitions for guns and tanks. It is my hope that continual munition delivery as well as other items that can be requested can be sent to Towns every fourth or fifth day dependent on our factories in Rhodevus and the war in The Bohin.
I am required to inform you that these deliveries are contingent on your acceptance that nuclear and biological weaponry will not be used by your nation without a strong reason informed to us prior to their usage. We can discuss this and all other potentials for conflict between us during the meeting.
Good Luck in the coming days,

Admittedly there was a time when my predecessors and even I considered nuclear weapons for Baggnagia. It was not for international power or influence reasons, but for security. Baggnagia was invaded many times and we had many territorial disputes. It seemed like armed conflict was always a matter of time because these problems remained unresolved. We turned to the nuclear program possibility as a last resort. We considered building bombs and missiles to send a final message to our enemies. We considered nuclear weapons in order to hopefully never use them, but to enjoy deterrence provided by them. Fortunately, times have changed and it has allowed us to dump that idea. Nuclear weapons should not spread anymore and Baggnagia will not reverse humanity’s progress on disarming.

Attention rulers, and citizens, of the world. While you may attempt to hide your intentions from me, your involvement in our conflict is not warranted. I do believe that we have made our intentions to defend ourselves rather clear in our most recent nuclear detonation.
As I wish to avoid unnecessary conflict at this terrible time, you would do well to note that this device was detonated within Renedge, and is merely meant to serve as a warning to those wishing to be involved in our war. You are hereby ordered to cease all military activities directed at preparing to engage in this conflict. Should you fail to comply, you risk facing the wrath of Renedge.
That is all.

It has been deemed necessary to inform you that General Knochenmus, Commandant of the Towns Marine Corps, is no longer in command of the community of Towns.
Acting as my top military adviser, at this time, General Knochenmus will be attending the previously agreed to meeting on my behalf.
As to put you at ease, in regards to our potential future use of weapons of mass destruction or weapons of mass effect, I assure you that such devices will not be used, to my vexation, in the foreseeable future. In accordance with a treaty signed by General Knochenmus in my absence, these weapons will be restricted until such a time in which either Renedge or Lee breach this treaty.
I would, as the current Commander in Chief of Towns, like to offer my thanks for your assistance in our ongoing war effort.

The Parliamentary Republic of Romaleus offers its sympathies to the injustice happening in divided POD. We under the impression that the other leaders of POD are unable to be diplomatic, so that is why we are speaking with you. We believe that unlike General Stroman and the others, you deeply care for the lives of all PODians. We the President and Ministers of Romaleus would like to extend our hand in friendship and hope that you accept. The extent of support Romaleus will send is still unknown but we are hoping to save lives, not take them. If you are successful in your attempts to become leader of united POD, we hope that you can find an ally in Romaleus in the future. We hope that our nations can peacefully coexist and that POD may someday return the favor if need be. We would like to see General Stroman removed from power so that you can reunite divided POD. Our only requests on your part are:
1.) Do not use nuclear weapons under any circumstances, Romaleus will not support any nation that actively uses unconventional warfare.
2.) Do not spread this war beyond that territories of POD
3.) Strive to bring about a swift and effective end to this war, peacefully, if possible.
4.) Prevent this event from repeating in the future. Though you speak of being a righteous man and only wanting the best for your people, we are not completely assured you are telling the truth. If this event occurs again, we may not greet you with open arms. Prove us wrong, prove you do care for your people and others.
