Official Statement of the Catholic Republic of Langenia

World tensions are escalating, caused by certain groups of nations that form into "alliances" and seek to bully other weaker countries and force them to submit to their will. This is especially shown in the example of the alliance AFAASA, whose goal is to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries and force their values, like so called "anti-slavery" on them, even though such moves do not take into account the feelings of the peoples of the countries being affected by AFAASA's brutal interventions. "Anti-slavery" is nothing more than a front for imperialism by a small group of countries, intent on world domination and rewriting the international world order to their own narrative. Langenia declares its condemnation of this, and declares that it will fight to prevent the spread of such imperialism.

As a result, we will begin movement of military forces to the Mediterranean region in support of the country of Ukraine, which is under threat from groups like AFAASA who seek to bend it to their own will. The Langenian people stand by Ukraine, joining the struggle to help them maintain the right to conduct their own internal affairs.

Glory to Langenia, and death to its enemies.

THIS MESSAGE IS TRANSMITTED AT THE REQUEST OF AFAASA HIGH COMMAND
ENCRYPTION LEVEL: CLASSIFIED LEVEL 4

---

Attention, the nation of The Catholic Republic of Langenia.

We have read through the vile and spiteful speech of hatred directed at us, and we must say that we are very much disappointed at Langenia's viewpoint on the newly formed Alliance along with it's stance with the vile pro-slaver state of Ukraine. We believe that the government of Langenia and Ukraine are blind to the immeasurable amount of misery that the millions of slaves in slaver nations have to endure every single day, with diseases, and torture running rampant across slave labor camps leading to the deaths of many slaves in those nations, not to mention the abhorrent supremacist nature shown by the Ukrainians in their statement of hatred, in which they regard the "Moskals" as a lower race, and that the Ukrainians are the more superior race.

The statement that Anti-Slaver alliances like the AFAASA are nothing more than a "front of imperialism" is truly false, for this accusation is unsubstantiated, given the fact that the alliance's virtues are to release slaves and grant them the same rights another human being would have. Two other another baseless accusations are also deemed as false, with one detailing that the alliance is secretly vying for "world domination", this one seems too far-fetched to be true, the same goes for the other one, that the members of the alliance are only "small nations". These claims which are mentioned in the statement by Langenia have little to nothing in terms of hard evidence or anything that might back up these claims, therefore, high command will release a statement directed at the International Community that the claims made by Langenia and Ukraine that their claims against the alliance are entirely false.

Regarding the statement "interfere in the internal affairs of other countries and force their values, like so called "anti-slavery" on them, even though such moves do not take into account the feelings of the peoples of the countries being affected by AFAASA's brutal interventions." The AFAASA and other associated organizations have deemed the values of these slaver nations as wrong and abhorrent in every aspects, for the very practice of slavery is deemed as cruel, unhumanitarian and a show of hate against races and ethnicities, and that nations who show support for this hateful practice will be regarded as showing support for widespread hatred against fellow human beings.

This has led us to ask the question: Does Langenia fully support and are ready to defend a bastion of hatred and intolerance?

In response to this, Langenia will be in the list of the AFAASA's primary enemies.

"Gentlemen, if I may draw your attention to a matter that may be of great interest to the AFAASA, the Imperial government is very much aware of the situation in our colonies of some of the local viceroys and governors simply ignoring any anti-slavery legislation. However over the past few years the Imperial Directorate of Colonial Order or KDO for short, has used this rather unfortunate situation to infiltrate illegal human-trafficking organizations with ties to colonial governors and the viceroys. At present the KDO, with aid from the Colonial Security Forces is getting ready to deliver a devastating blow to those organizations and governors who ignored Imperial legislation for years. I figure the AFAASA may wish to consider getting involved in these matters on some level as we believe these organizations to operate beyond just our own colonies."

Phenyzia wrote:"Said Legislations were passed in 1870 and specifically expanded to include colonial territories in 1900, I believe the time of claiming that colonial officials are simply unaware has passed. Concerns about potential economic issues and destabilizing the colonies is what has protected the two colonial viceroys from the Imperial Government simply acting against them, our new heir-apparent has however very clearly announced her desire to end the issue of colonial slavery once and for all so more drastic steps are finally being taken.
The KDO's assessment is that the pacific will ultimately fall in line with a show of force, which our Colonial Security Forces are presently preparing for together with large portions of the Imperial Pacific Fleet.
This operation codenamed Authority, should quickly eliminate the problem in the pacific, which would then leave the issue of dealing with all the former slaves, as we do not have any programs in place to return them to their country of origin. Any slavery related intel the KDO acquires in this operation will of course be made available to AFAASA officials."

The retired Colonel opens the folder he's been holding onto, containing various photos of East African officials. "The Viceroy of East Africa however is an entirely different matter. We believe that he has embezzled large portions of the colonial government's funds to expand his slavery operations and strengthen his personal militia against our own Colonial Security Forces, and unlike the Pacific we can not simply blockade every possible escape route as he might just see flee into one of the neigbouring countries. A full-scale invasion would be too risky as it would most likely destabilize the entire region."

She was late to the party so to say but was eager to figure out a solution to the problem of slavery. The Jamesian Republic had quite the experience with slavery. Between the settlement of the country to 1865 The Jamesian Republic had legalized slavery. However as the years went on slavery would slowly be abolished state by state. However in an attempt to appease the South compromise after compromise was made until finally the South seceded and civil war began. The war tore the nation apart but it still stands. The scars have healed somewhat but they are still there. Today The Jamesian Republic has joined AFAASA to repay society for its sins and bring justice.

Marcia went to her assigned place and spoke.

“Good day ladies and gentlemen of the assembly, my name is Marcia Rutkowski and I’m the Jamesian representative. I have worked on the Senate Emancipation Committee in my home country and now The Jamesian Republic has decided to engage in diplomatic work to bring an end to the practice of slavery. My country for hundreds of years enslaved people mostly on the basis of race. It took a violent civil war and the near death of my nation and the deaths of millions within the borders of Jamesia to bring an end to legal institution that had survived since colonial times. That is why I am here. So never again are people enslaved and never again a nation nearly destroyed. The current course of action The Jamesian Republic believes is appropriate is to funnel money into abolitionist groups and advising groups in nations perhaps on the brink of war to peacefully negotiate the end of slavery without the nation’s destruction.” Marcia said.

The Koejginm representative spoke once more, shocking his bodyguards who were amazed at how he was able to articulate the words of the Great representative.

"Yo my dude, why are we letting colonial countries and former slave holders have a seat in this forum? It's simple that we need to be higher standard so we should stop giving these countries a seat until they prove that they are not holding these thoughts anymore bro. As for the colonies I think we should send them buckets of good food and supply to help them get out of their wrong ways. We should kick out their leader and install a new one but we shouldn't make the people suffer, aight?"

He sat back down in his bucket and sighed heavily.

L.T.C. Hawi Davies: “Say what you will about the Jamesian Republic, but it is not the United States. Its abolition of slavery came much earlier, and didn’t require a civil war to achieve; in addition, the ruling parties seem to have done a lot more to try and bridge the gap between the descendants of slaves and those without such a history. Farbeit for me to be the arbiter of this organization’s affairs, but I vote that the Republic still deserves a seat at this grand table.”

"Bro maybe they have bridged the gap, I accept it, but if we let these countries through we may accept a land that might not have the same standards as this country. At least yall should set up a standard for former slave-holding lands to abide by!"

That being said, your origins and your imperial actions are, er… much harder to get past, to put it kindly. What exactly have you been doing to amend these?”

Tammuz: "And what would that standard be? What would be required for them that other nations wouldn't have? My nation once had slaves due to the people that colonized us, but we abolished the practice when we kicked that Empire out of our lands around 8 years ago. Would we be held to the same standard? I don't think you're thinking this through. We need all the help we can get, and the Jamesian Republic seems as good an ally as any."

The Jamesian Republic wrote:Marcia decided to respond to the representative from Koejginm.

“My good sir The Jamesian Republic has been slavery free since 1865. Ever since we have been trying to fight injustices across the world and multiverse. It’s a form of payback to society for its sins. As for how we have made amends to our past we punished the states that seceded from the Republic made an amendment to abolish any type of segregation and have extended political suffrage to the Native Jamesians and have established a pact of mutual aid and ownership of the territory belonging to the Jamesian government and the tribes. But nonetheless The Jamesian Republic is dedicated to abolishing the practice where it exists and emancipate the people in bondage.” Marcia explained.

"Thank you. Considering we allow Laka a seat here, I think this Republic should be able to maintain its position."
