[Southern Xenick]

The Six have virtually united into one nation. Though they all have their own leaders, the Six are closer than ever before. The Empress (Meretica), Feodorov Vladimir Romanovich (Soviet Meretica), the Three Prime Ministers (Enoch-Hezekiah), President Augustus (The Central Gulf), King Leonidas and PM Ingvall (The New California Kingdom), and Roy Davis (The Political Union of new England) are all on the same page. Their solidarity cannot and will not easily be destroyed.

Davis, a former Texan that moved to New York, quoted Winston Churchill on the matter and included his own words:

I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once again able to defend our homes, to ride out the storm of potential war, and to outlive the menace of tyranny, if necessary for years, if necessary alone. At any rate, that is what we are going to try to do. That is the resolve of our governments and every person in them. That is the will of democracy. Our size nations, united as one, shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end... We shall fight in Meretica. We shall fight in New York. We shall fight in California. We shall fight in the Caribbean. We shall fight on the seas and oceans, with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, and we shall defend our homes, whatever the cost may be! We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, democracy or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our friends beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the Arms of God Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old. We shall protect those most powerful tools that man can yield. We shall fight to protect the vote, we shall vote to protect the right to think, we shall fight to protect the right for a nation's people to determine what kind of government it wants for itself! We shall oppose SM and all the evils that it stands for, militarily and politically. We shall oppose its attempts to take hold of more power and force others to be bent to its will!

We have nothing to fear from SM anymore than we have to fear from our allies. Our strength and our will are unbreakable and unshakeable! I do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other person or any other generation! The energy, the faith, the devotion of our countries to one another is unequaled! The figurative fire that burns in our hearts shall move to the hearts of people around the world, resulting in a mass revolution that shall bring forth peace, freedom, democracy, globalization, and, above all, unity. I pledge to ask not what any other nation can do for New England, but what New England can do for the world at large. Fellow world citizens, ask not what we can do for you, but ask what we can all do for one another as we try to move forward in the most dangerous of circumstances.

I have a dream that this world will one day see what can be done when we support one another instead of trying to cling to what we can do for ourselves. I dream of the day when every person, all of God's children, will be able to join together and say "Free at last! Free at last! Praise God Almighty, we are free at last! There is no moral issue; it is wrong to deny anyone their basic rights or deny a nation the right to choose for itself its own government, and wrong still to deny anyone the right to vote based on their political beliefs. To know war is to know that there is still madness in this world. But we do what we must. I am hopeful, and I will try as best I can, to end this battle and bring the world forward. We have some difficulties ahead. But it doesn't matter, because we've all been to the mountaintop. I would like to live a long life, but that has its place. I'm not concerned about that, now. I just want to do God's will. I've seen the Promised Land. I may not get there with you, but know that we as a people will get to the Promised Land! I fear no man! I have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord!

He pauses here for a time, seemingly to catch his breath before he continues.

There is one sign SM can make that would be unmistakable, that would advance dramatically the causes of freedom and peace. Southeast Marajarbia, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the world at large, if you seek liberalization, come here to the Six and we will open our gates to speak to you. SM, we will open our gates, and we will find a way to tear down this wall that you have built around us as you have told lie after lie about the Six of us, our wants, our needs, our desires. We will find a way forward.

We are all fortunate to be alive at this moment in history. Never, at once, has the world endured such a lack of international consensus, social progress, and hardship, with so much international crisis that nuclear warfare has been used many times in the past several months. The Awesome Confederation was one of these nations, and they used their weapons to wipe out a third of the Meretican populace and continued a war in which they participated in the mass genocide of the Meretican people. Never before have we had such an opportunity and such an obligation to build a more perfect world of our ancestors' dreams.

To my own nation and the people residing within the Six, I can hear you. The people of the world can hear you. And the people that have stood against our rights will hear us soon enough. To all of those watching tonight from beyond our shores, from Parliaments to palaces, to those hunched around TVs or radios from the North Pole to the South Pole, and the forgotten corners of the world... Our stories are singular but our destiny is shared. A new dawn is at hand, and that dawn can either be bright and optimistic or it can turn dark and bring more terror. To those that would tear the world down and have been trying to tear it down, we will defeat you, be it politically, economically, militarily, spiritually. To those that seek peace and security, we support you. And to those that have wondered if the beacon of democracy still burns as brightly as it did years ago, we have proven time and time again that true strength does not come from muscles or bones, but from within the heart, mind, and spirit. We believe in democracy, liberty, and unyielding hope! That is the true genius of democracy, that democracy leads to change, that things can be perfected. What we have already achieved gives us the hope that we can and must achieve what lies in tomorrow.

I am reminded of the life of the late Michelle Campbell, a former Senator and President of Meretica. Tonight, I think of all that she saw throughout her many decades of life. There was heartache and hope, struggle and progress. The times she was told that she couldn't do something, and the supporters that helped her press on with that creed, "Yes we can." At a time when much of the world silenced women's voices, hopes, and dreams, dismissed people based on the color of their skin, she lived them to see so many stand up and reach for the ballot, saying, "Yes we can." When there was despair and depression and death, she saw her nation rise and say, "Yes we can." When her home was war-torn and things looked bad, she took up the mantle and said, "Yes we can." When the bombs fell on their nation, she fought for democracy, saying, "Yes we can." Everything that she saw said, "Yes we can." When she died, she said one last time, "Yes we can." She has seen so much. But there is so much more that we can and should do. This is our moment. This is our time. We shall bring back prosperity and promote the qualities of peace and democracy. We shall bring back the fundamental truth that when we breathe, we breathe as one. That when someone tells us that we can't, we respond with that timeless phrase that sums up the spirit of our many peoples, saying, "Yes we can."

I ask God to bless my nation. I ask God to bless our Six nations. I ask God to bless every nation. I ask God to bless this world. Goodnight.

Once the cameras had turned off, Davis turned to his fellow rulers. "How did I do?" he asked.

"Vell," the First Premier replied, accent thick, "I do believe that iv ve are captured and sentenced to death by the SM armies, zen ve vill likely be executed. I am fine with that."

"As are we," Sara Lewis, the eldest of the Three E-H PMs answered.

"And us," agreed King Leonidas.

"I am more than willing to lay down my life for all that we have fought for," Sinestra added firmly. "A toast! Come tomorrow, we shall either be ruled to hang together or we shall most certainly hang separately!"

You cant make alts to increase your power. I expect you to refrain from doing this. I might need to ban you if you don’t take action to stop it.

Desert Worry Doubles.

Sanhana has expressed great worry over the state of The King Isle, and has begun sanctioning The King Isle. A full naval blockade was considered by Sanhanan officials, but was denied 72-58 in parliament. Military action may be taken but Sanhanan Assets are mostly devoted to the ongoing Axadonian Civil war.

Members of Sanhanan Covert Operations have been dispatched to spy on and gather info from the King Isle, disguised as tourists or transfer students. Secrecy is of the top priority, and all possible precautions have been taken to ensure that the members of the force are not discovered.
