A World About To Break [IC] [MT-PMT] [APP]

[Independant Canada]

Then it is confirmed.

Cuba will be Non-alligned. Cuba will remain peaceful.
It will also be a place for refueling, negotiations and trade.

CUB I would like to thank you for your cooperation during these times. You have gained a sense of honour. Peace has been found in the Caribbean at least.

[The Communist Union of B]

Aaron Wise thanks Canada as well in return for going the peaceful way and avoiding hostilities, and as a gift for their cooperation, sends Canada a shipment of the CUBs finest, freshest trout.

[Joushiki Nante Iranai]

The CUB doesn’t take to kindly to the troops stationed along their border, and warns the Queens to back off as the CUB doesn’t want trouble. Aaron Wise also asks for negotiations with the Queens to be held over a teleconference.

Until the CUB doesn’t have soldiers lined up against their wall, soldiers will be on high alert, and the 101st Shock Battalion, paired with the 50th Valpo Battalion are stationed up on top of the Cortex wall with orders to ask, tell, make. This means that intruders will be asked to leave, told what will happen if they don’t, and if non compliant, the intruders will be detained or shot.

The Queens say that they are wary that the CUB may attempt to invade Spain, Andorra or the Netherlands, but say they will withdraw a portion of their force. They also ask when Aaron Wise would be available for the teleconference and request that the Prime Minister of Spain also be present.

[Michael Waltrip]

Michael Waltrip XVIII has recently died from natural causes, and his grandson, Michael Waltrip XX, takes over as king. His first act as king is to order a large scale invasion of the Philippine Islands under approval from the Caleon Congress.

The CUB states they have no interest in invading Spain nor would even think to. The CUB is only interested in empty land, and with draws a portion of their forces as well. Aaron Wise states he’ll be available whenever.

(OOC: This post spans the period from the start of 2nd Suez Crisis to present day.)

Finally, they contacted Hypron and Independent Canada, informing them of their intentions to ally closely with them and re-establish the colonial empires of the world.

Independent Canada is glad to have revived this message. It should be noted thought that Canada is no longer a constitutional Monarchy with the British crown as our Head of State. We are now a Parliamentary Republic. Our provinces in the Caribbean are not colony's but as I have said full member states of the Canadian Confederation.

We are allied to United Kingdom of Hypron, the United States and now allied to the Kingdom of Spain! We are also in talks to ally with Kastyria.

It should also be noted that even though Canada is not a big fan of Communism, we are on cool terms with your neighbouring nation, the Communist Union of B.

In the future our Prime Minister, Stephen Mackenzie Pearson, would like to meet in person with your lovely Queens and Prime Minister.

[Caleonia]

OOC: It’d be really appreciative that you’d just call yourself Canada for the sake of simplicity as you’ve clearly shown your inability to keep consistent grammar.

[Independant Canada]

OCC: Okay, captain obvious. I am the nation of Canada. The reason for the terrible grammar is because, I'm using my tiny phone keyboard while typing the actions in a quick manner without proofreading. When I'm at an actual computer keyboard the grammar should be better.

[Caleonia]

OCC: Okay captain obvious. I'm Canada. The reason for the terrible grammar is because I'm using my tiny phone keyboard while typing the actions. When I'm at an actual computer keyboard the grammar should be better.

Thank you.

Caleon does a thing and now boom Denmark is annexed. No more expansion, Ward says. Three days later, he gets shot, but lives.

[The Communist Union of B]

The CUB has now officially annexed Costa Rica, and a small merchant freighter loaded with materials is sent to Cuba to begin construction on a World Trade Center, which will be a cease fire zone for all nations, where violence is not permitted.

After this, General Dale Byron sends Legion Echo to Nicaragua to begin an annexation similar to the last two, and upon seeing soldiers, and knowing what has happened in the two southern countries below them, Nicaragua welcomes the soldiers and do not protest and remain peaceful, as an ambassador speaks to the leader of Nicaragua on the topic of annexation of Nicaragua and the merging with the CUB.

Aaron Wise orders more troops to be sent to Central America as five countries remain unannexed. As such, a new army is formed, which is dubbed the Central Army, which consists of 102,000 military personnel of all branches, ranks, and positions. This army is transported by the 4th Renault Fleet, consisting of the same ships as the Apex fleet.

[Joushiki Nante Iranai]

After a written copy of the following message was received, the Queens annotated it, although this was not seen the outside world.

...

Independent Canada is glad to have revived this message. It should be noted thought that Canada is no longer a constitutional Monarchy with the British crown as our Head of State. Oops. We are now a Parliamentary Republic. Double oops. Our provinces in the Caribbean are not colony's but as I have said full member states of the Canadian Confederation. We want the culture of the nations to be retained anyway, that seems like a good way to do it. Would get a bit too much for a monarchy though, so maybe just puppeting the nations could work if we invade them for colonial purposes?

We are allied to United Kingdom of Hypron, the United States and now allied to the Kingdom of Spain! Hooray! Let's hope Hypron accepts our formal alliance too. We are also in talks to ally with Kastyria.

It should also be noted that even though Canada is not a big fan of Communism, we are on cool terms with your neighbouring nation, the Communist Union of B. It isn't that Communist though, gracias a Dios. Imagine how they'd treat us - remember what we were told Russia was like 111 years ago?

In the future our Prime Minister, Stephen Mackenzie Pearson, would like to meet in person with your lovely Queens and Prime Minister. Please say that wasn't sarcasm. We'd lose to meet in person too, though. In all seriousness, a full NATO meeting is probably needed to look at B and Caleon.

After discussion with the Prime Minister, they sent a recommendation for a NATO meeting to the United States.

[Independant Canada]

A reply from the Prime Minister himself. His reply is underlined and in italics. As stated before this is not seen by the outside world.

By "oops" does your highness's believe we made a mistake by removing the Constitutional Monarchy from Canada? I will let it be known that half of our navy ships still carry the HCMS (His/Her Majesty's Canadian Ship) our Air Force is still branded as the RCAF (Royal Canadian Air Force) and we still have the the current British head of state on our 20 dollar bill. So it would still seem we are connected to the British Monarchy but just not officially anymore. We have no plans to turn away from the British at anytime. As I have said before and I will say it again, Canadians and British stand side by side. Whether if we had the monarchy or not.

Your highness's, pardon me for the constructive criticism, but I will defend my nation for the choices we have made. Canada supports the Spanish monarchy and long shall it reign.

On the topic of colony's, your highness's rest assured your former colonial holding of the Dominican Republic, now Province of the Canadian Confederation has still kept it Spanish heritage over the years. Canada is a cultural mosaic built up by Aboriginal, French, British and now Spanish cultures. The people of the Dominican Republic are proud Canadians with a Spanish heritage!

May I suggest Morocco as your first colonial holding for the modern day. It is close to your nation and shares some of the same cultures.

Yes, I am aware of the terrible things the Soviet Union did back then. Now I don't know what the CUB does in his own nation but so far there has been no evidence of evil doings. I just had to be in good terms with him to secure Canadian interest in the Caribbean.

In the future our Prime Minister, Stephen Mackenzie Pearson, would like to meet in person with your lovely Queens and Prime Minister. Please say that wasn't sarcasm. We'd lose to meet in person too, though. In all seriousness, a full NATO meeting is probably needed to look at B and Caleon.

That was not sarcasm. When you say "We'd lose to meet you in person" Do you mean "We'd love to meet you in person?". I guess a NATO meeting will have to be held as you have implied your highness's. We're waiting on the Americans next activity/moves.

OOC: I originally meant that this wasn't sent to anyone, but what you did makes more sense. Also, 'oops' was more of an OOC 'oops' for not checking that you'd become a republic. Sorry! Additionally yes, 'lose' was a typo, it was meant to be 'love'. And finally, Russia was actually a reference to them overthrowing the Tsar and eventually ending with a communist regime - basically the dislike of monarchies - instead of the atrocities.

IC: The above misunderstandings were quickly clarified by the Queens and Prime Minister in a formal manner - overall, it took less than 10 minutes from receiving the reply to sending the clarification.

[Hypron]

(OOC: This post spans the period from the start of 2nd Suez Crisis to present day.)

Madrid, Spain

"Todo el mundo está ardiendo." [The whole world is going up in flames.]
"¡Obvio!" [Obviously!]

The Queens contemplated what to do. It was obvious that Hypron, CUB and Caleon were trying to create new empires, but who to ally with was another matter. Hypron was trying to re-establish the British colonial empire, but Caleon was trying to make a European empire. At the same time, Caleon was allied to CUB, a dictatorship controlling France and Italy, while Hypron was allied to Independent Canada...

It would take time to decide. Time they didn't have. After discussion with the Prime Minister and Parliament, the course of action was agreed.

First they contacted the USA, re-affirming their position within NATO and asking for forces to be stationed on the CUB border. They also stationed a large portion of the country's military along the CUB border. They then guaranteed the independence of the Netherlands and Andorra. Finally, they contacted Hypron and Independent Canada, informing them of their intentions to ally closely with them and re-establish the colonial empires of the world.

(OOC: Can someone summarise what's happening? I don't fully understand how the conflicts started. Also could the map be updated please?)

The Prime Minister receives this messages and dispatches a response.

"We would be happy to have another ally in Europe."

Odinburgh Prime Minister is interested in this European Empire.

Odinburgh Prime Minister is interested in this European Empire.

OOC: Only Canada and Hypron saw the alliance request - Odinburgh knows nothing of Hypron's alliance with Spain as it has not been formally announced.

[Ethereal Madness]

A new interest has taken Ethereal Madness by storm: Soccer (or football, as the citizens call it)!

The Ethereal Madness Premier Football League (EMPFL) was sanctioned by the Department of Sports and Recreation 3 months ago, and the inaugural season is due to start within weeks. Clubs are set up all over Ireland to compete for the Ethereal Cup.

In other news, Master Forvirring sees heightened tensions in the world, and would like to suggest that everyone relax. Maybe have some tea, or smoke some cannabis, if that’s your style.

"Trade deals are after all better than war declarations," he says, "though like my grandfather said, 'peace is not the absence of conflicts, it is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means.' We are always open for business."

His aides nod behind him, unaware that the quote was from someone else.

[Caleonia]

Caleon begins building a bridge off the coast of Hamburg. Why it’s being built? Nobody knows. Where it’s going? Who knows.

[Hypron]

The Prime Minister makes a statement to the world.

"I have quite a lot of topics to cover today. First will be The Shahanshah response to my previous message, in which he says that we are trying to remake our empire, starting with Egypt. While this is true, we are not trying to do this by warfare, more by diplomatic relations with old colonies and Commonwealth members.We do not want to be warmongers, unlike Iran, who thought the best way to take NEUTRAL territory was by conquest. We intervened to leave Egypt in peace and do a Treaty of Versailles style treaty on Iran to stop there conquest."

"Next will be our newest main battle tank. We decided in 2024 to purchase a T-72B3 from the Russian Federation. After making some modifications, we now have the T-72B4. It can mount either the 2A46M 125mm/L48 smoothbore gun or the L30A1 120mm/L55 smoothbore gun. It has the brand new Chobham/Dorchester Level 3 armor and the Perkins CV12- 6B V15 diesel engine, which has a estimated 1400 horsepower. Being a 45 ton tank, it has a horsepower per ton of 31, allowing it to have a max speed of 90 km/h. It is for sale at 5.4 million pounds. It also has a NSVT 7.62mm machine gun and a TOW 2 ATGM launcher. We have 500 of these tanks in service, with 50 being deployed to Egypt."

Ward sends an envoy to the Hypeonese Prime Minister to purchase 5 of these tanks for reasons classified. This is prime real estate for Ward, because if he can destroy these ranks easily, he has no problem dealing with Hypron if they end up battling of classified purposes, and he just so happens to know that the Prime Minister has made a huge decision to make his tanks a public offering. Ward is actually improvising the latter part.

We agree to his purchase, but we dismount the Chobham armor package for classified reasons.

[Hypron]

After careful consideration, the Prime Minister cancels the sale of T-72B4 tanks, except for Caleonia, who already ordered 5 (No Chobham Armor Package) after this order they will receive no more, and Commonwealth members.

[Caleonia]

Caleon, immediately after hearing of this, sends ambassadors to create an embassy in London and maybe set up some Di9 routes to there because why not.

OOC: Caleon requesting a Di9 route going to another country is basically Caleon asking for said country to be an unofficial ally of Caleon without spreading major political opposition.
