Recipient Region of Forest REPUBLIC OF KEILERSMOOR Topic: Crisis in Posteastan Esteemed friends and colleagues, I am surprised by the recent developments. The allegations against Construction Enterprises are deeply concerning. While neither owning stocks in the defense industry nor working for profit are immoral or problematic, working with criminal gangs is. I think the best way to deal with this situation is to file a law suit against Construction Enterprises in Kenmoria. Equally surprising is the death of the Forest Dream. What has become of the idea of a unified approach? While the Landtag most certainly does not favor Velascu as president of Posteastan we also reject the overhasty call for his resignation solely based on the allegation that he supports free-market economy over command economy. In a time where the survival of the starving people should be his first concern there is not much room for him to negotiate. He has to take what is offered. Now that humanitarian aid from Forest is tied to the demand of resignation it is much more difficult for us to help the people in need. To be honest, I have difficulties finding the difference to imperialism here. Humanitarian aid must never be tied to political demands. Keilersmoor does not support this behavior in any way. Unfortunately, the political maneuver here is all too obvious. Our Forestan friends have taken the starving people of Posteastan hostage. The intention behind the call for resignation and the offer of humanitarian aid is that Velascu rejects the aid and more people die in hopes to pin these deaths on him. This is not only cynical and immoral but also against all that Keilersmoor stands for. We still do not favor Velascu and we do not think that he is doing an acceptable job but the call for resignation while close allies of Caracasus and Uan aa Boa have invaded Posteastan is more than suspicious. Who is supposed to take his place? The UGF? The Moralists? Remus Balan? What is that supposed to mean? Keilersmoor could now escalate the situation by following Uan aa Boa's example and engage in unilateral support of the Renegades or Royalists but we will not do that at this moment. Instead we ask our friends in Forest for clarification and for a concept of the future of Posteastan. For us it looks as if Posteastan is supposed to become a colony of Carcasus and Uan aa Boa. A single party state (the UGF?) with command economy, no elections and under military occupation of Karevka? Sincerely Rutger Thorbecke Foreign Minister |
Recipient Sir Donald Endersby Posteastan Alms Society Great Nortend REPUBLIC OF KEILERSMOOR Topic: Humanitarian Aid Dear Sir Donald Endersby, I write to you on behave of the Landtag of Keilersmoor. It has come to our attention that your organization serves the people of Posteastan without fear or favor. The situation in the troubled nation is reason for deep concern. We commend your volunteers for their bravery to risk their own lives for the good of others. I hope that your men are all in good health. To help you in your work the Landtag has decided to grant the substantial amount of 25 million New Deut to the Posteastan Alms Society. Additional 25 million will be delivered in goods like highly maneuverable off-road trucks modified to burn all kinds of fuel including alcohol and equipped with ballistic and mine protection, mobile distilleries, two mobile hospitals, mine detectors, flak jackets, night vison equipment, two-way radios, outdoor computers, satellite communication equipment and solar collectors. We will also deliver water purification chemicals and pumps as well as individual med packs. We hope that we can help to minimize the risk to health and life of your volunteers through this delivery. It will be shipped by cargo plane to Great Nortend as Posteastan has been classified as too risky for our own ships at the moment. As customary with humanitarian aid no prerequisites besides your approval are tied to the delivery. It is, however, the explicit wish of the Landtag that the Posteastan Alms Society tries to find an agreement with the Renegades to deliver aid to the people under siege by the National Guard. Sincerely Rutger Thorbecke Foreign Minister |

Sir Alexander, I have received promising news from Leozina. Endersby's men have from their latest telegramme successfully implemented the first stage of the Rose Garden plan. I have also been told by Endersby that he has received an offer from the Government of Keilersmoor to send aid on their behalf to Posteastan. This is an excellent development for the Erbonian Government. I have advised the other Directours of the society to accept the offer, and Somerham has been most encouraging. 25 million New Deut in cash and the same in goods. A welcome boost for the Society's funds, I should not think. (Sgd.) LIMMES |
SECRETARY OF THE POSTEASTAN ALMS SOCIETY Dear Mr Thorbecke, The Society was very humbled by your letter which we received to-day, and dare not countenance the non-acceptance of your Government's generous offer. The Society appreciates that the Republic of Keilersmoor has recognised its humanitarian policy and assures the Landtag that all aid and alms received will be used for the benefit of the people of Posteastan. The supplies which you have indicated would be sent will certainly improve the safety and wellbeing of not only our brave volunteers, but also those Posteastans in need. I shall write immediately to Mr Valaska to seek approval for distribution of the aid once it reaches Posteastan by the National Guard in the province held by the National Guard. Our volunteers are unlikely to risk entry into the area without satisfactory armed guard and so our delivery of aid to that region is conditional on Mr Valaska's approval. We will also need to write to the de facto leaders of the Renegades to broker a deal with them, should Mr Valaska agree, as without an agreement there is a real danger to life and limb. Regarding logistics, the goods will be accepted at Royal St Christopher's Airport. We shall make the necessary arrangements with the domestic Government of Great Nortend. We send all alms by sea to Rostechko, and thence by the River Telin to Leozina, our current base of operations. Food and other humanitarian aid will be loaded onto some railway waggons and with an armed guard, sent to Province Three. If we are unable to send aid to the Renegade-held areas, rest assured that they will be used to supply humanitarian aid to people in another region of Posteastan. I beg to remain, Sir, your most humble and obedient servant. (Sgd.) D. J. ENDERSBY Sir Donald Endersby, Secretary of the Posteastan Alms Society |
SECRETARY OF THE POSTEASTAN ALMS SOCIETY Dear Mr Valaska, With regards to your official telegramme wherein you so agreeably accepted our Society's offer to distribute aid, I am pleased that as a result of your sagacious permittance, we have stocked two ships with humanitarian aid goods, which should arrive in Posteastan late tomorrow evening, Posteastan-time, with one more being readied. We wish to seek your permission to aid to your citizens trapped in the regions held by the Renegades, in co-operation with the Republic of Keilersmoor. It is proposed by the Landtag of Keilersmoor that the Posteastan Alms Society deliver aid products on behalf of Keilersmoor. It has been requested by the Landtag that the Society attempt to broker a deal with the Renegades to distribute by your National Guard aid goods, such as food, water purification tablets, clothing and the like to the people in their territories. If you would be willing to countenance such an agreement, with your permission we shall write to the leader of the so-called “Federal Republic of Posteastan” to investigate further options. I beg to remain, Sir, your most humble and obedient servant. (Sgd.) D. J. ENDERSBY Sir Donald Endersby, Secretary of the Posteastan Alms Society |

KINGDOM OF KJALÅRA (Encryption: Public) To:Public Statement From: Queen Tove Friends, enemies, neutral bystanders, As you all know the bi-yearly naval exercise Ran’s Net is about to take place. To celebrate my birthday, I have decided that this year’s exercise will consist of four groups instead of the normal two. As the time of the year dictates we will use the international waters off the shores of Posteastan for this great exercise because other oceans are too dangerous for an operation of this size. To avoid confusion or delays I am glad to list the full number of participants in the exercise. The Expeditionary Strike Groups Trollhammer and Ice Wolf will train for a swift amphibious military intervention while the Carrier Battle Groups Fafnir and Nidhogg will test their abilities to provide theoretical air support for this fictional intervention. For additional transparency, I invite neutral observers from Schwarzenfels to participate with their own battlegroup in this exercise. Tomorrow’s wars will be fought by alliances and not by individual states. The sooner we all prepare for that the better. As a measure of precaution, I think it is highly recommended for military aircraft and ships to avoid a zone of about 100 nautical miles around the exercise since we are going to use live ammunition. I will personally observe the operation on board of one of my ships and I invite all dignitaries of the involved nations to celebrate my birthday with me. I’m sure that Ran’s Net will be a beautiful show of skill and technology. If you have any questions regarding the exercise don’t hesitate to ask. Heil og Sæl Heil og Sæl |

STATEMENT OF THE GOVERNMENT OF UAN AA BOA
Recent comments by Rutger Thorbecke, Foreign Minister of Keilesmoor, require response and clarification.
Firstly, the humanitarian aid currently being supplied by our government is subject to no conditions and is not tied to our call for the resignation of President Valaska. We will continue to provide food, medicine and other essential supplies irrespective of the political situation.
Secondly, Uan aa Boa has not endorsed any Posteastan faction and has no military presence within the territory of Posteastan.
Thirdly, we have no connection to the government of Karevka and do not in any way endorse their ill advised military adventurism.
Fourthly, we do not object to President Valaska on the grounds that he favours the free market. The truth is that he does not. He is engaged in creating monopolies in the provision of essential services on behalf of Construction Enterprises and the Contin and Nechita clans. There is nothing free about this, nor does one need to be a socialist to find the conduct of Valeska, the oligarchs and Construction Enterprises reprehensible.
Fifthly, Uan aa Boa has no desire to create a command economy or a socialist state in Posteastan. That is a matter for the people of Posteastan. We ask only how it can be possible for them to determine their own future while their access to water, transport, communications, healthcare and so forth is under the control of profiteers?
We understand the best prospect for a unified Forest position to be one based on (a) non-endorsement of any faction (b) unconditional humanitarian aid (c) maximum effort at procuring a peaceful diplomatic solution. We are committed to all of these. If there is an obstacle to Forest unity it is the nation of Rivienland and its endorsement of the monarchist faction.

Be advised that we have no intention of moving our ships away from the location of your planned military exercise in the vicinity of Posteastan. If you cannot be confident regarding what you are shooting at then you should avoid using live ammunition until your sailors have acquired this elementary skill. Any incidents will be treated with the appropriate diplomatic severity.

KINGDOM OF KJALÅRA (Encryption: Public) To:Public Statement From: Queen Tove Dearest Workers and Revolutionaries, It is a great pleasure working and revolutioneering with you. After reevaluating the theater, I have come to the conclusion that you are actually right. Your exercise is too close to the place where Ran’s Net was about to take place. The use of missile defense systems and long range interceptions makes damage or injuries as well as confusion of our navies very likely. To ask you to move away from the spot would be unfair and undiplomatic as we both know that the sport is the perfect place this time of the year for this type of exercise. With all the ships already in place and my birthday drawing near I have decided to move the groups a few hundred miles south, closer to the coast and away from your work and revolution. We are now technically in Posteastan waters but that is not a problem as they have neither air force nor navy which could interfere with our countermeasures. Civilian traffic is not hindered by our presence so there should be no problem. I thank you personally for your words of waring and I hope that your work and revolution will be fruitful and that your exercise is a great success. I also wish to use this opportunity to inform all authorities in my beloved Posteastan that we are now in their waters training hard for the liberation of a small, insignificant, run down nation. I hope that one of you will send me an invitation to your waters. I would be very pleased. Heil og Sæl |

Letter from the Ministry of Foreign AffairsThe Position of the Grand Duchy of Rivienland on the Plan for Peace in Posteastan
To: The nations of Forest
Dearest allies and neighbors,
I find it unfortunate to write to you at this hour, for as we enjoy the prospects of peace within Forest, the nation of Posteastan faces incredible misfortune and hardship. Though, when crisis looms in distant lands, it is now Forest, a region united in principle, that may act as mediators to assist in those in such distress. The Grand Duchy of Rivienland, along with many others, agree that military intervention cannot be considered, and that peace talks are the best option for all parties. With respect to President Valaska, the Grand Duchy would advise that peace talks continue to be supported in order to bring peace to this great, and historic nation. Without a doubt, I know Forest understands the complexities of this conflict, as shown by the line of questions from Keilersmoor, and that Forest is ready to move forward in bringing truth and justice to this situation.
We stand hand-in-hand with the recent statement from Minster Thorbecke of Keilersmoor in having a feeling of disappointment over the slow development of a pan-Forest position, and the uncalled condemnation of the free markets of Posteastan. Not only is this inconsiderate of the opinions of those native Posteastans who support this system, but only adds more complications as our region attempts to bring multiple parties to peace talks. In addition, we applaud the decision on delivering humanitarian aid to Posteastan, regardless of any political demands. As a result, Rivienland will be, in the next few weeks, sending relief supplies to the country to show our continuing support for the people of Posteastan.
But, before we can continue, I, as Minister of Foreign Affairs, feel obligated to address the allegations insinuated by Uan aa Boa, that were not only stated once, but twice. First and foremost, the Grand Duchy has not, in any way, declared our support for any of the factions, or lent our “influence to the Royalist faction”. Unlike some nations involved in this crisis, Rivienland is committed to seeing the promotion of stability, and peace within Posteastan as soon as possible. We admit to Forest, in the name of transparency, that Rivienland has sought information on the position of the Royalists, but just as much as any nation has investigated the conditions of any political faction within the country. We remain committed to a pan-Forest position of neutrality as, we a region united, discuss possibilities for a joint response.
In the best interests of showing our fullest support of a united position with our allies and neighbors, I will express again our interest in supporting the Royalist faction within Posteastan. As discussed earlier by Keilersmoor, the Royalists not only support a constitutional monarchy with free elections, but provide the opportunity to install an independent king that would not be involved in any previous crimes, and portrays the best hope for a stable nation.
Following these discussions over the position of a pan-Forest position, and belief that every nation has shared their position in detail, we push to assemble the representatives of our respective nations, and any other faction interested in observing our talks, at Villi Island in Caracasus to settle these matters in person. For every day we delay this summit, the less chance we have at finding any solution to this worsening situation.
We await your responses in good faith, and friendship.Count Moncheur et d’Orban

Letter from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
To: Sir Alexandru Bàrdi—de Leu, KSE GCH
Sir Alexandru,
Today, I write to you on the behalf of my government, and our express interest in the Posteastan Crisis. Throughout Rivienland, our people morn for the chaos, and traumatic loss the people of Posteastan have gone through. On behalf of His Royal Highness’s government, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would like to take a stronger position in the Crisis to help the country once again see an era of peace, and prosperity. To this end, I would like to request an audience to better understand not only your position in these matters, but to what end the Royalists are working towards a unified country. We wait for your response, and, until then, Posteastan will be in the prayers of Rivienland.
Together may we witness a restoration of peace and tradition in Posteastan.Edourard van Houtte, KGDR

There are no bystanders in the class struggle.
Grand Ambassador,
Although we represent very different nations I do not hesitate to commend your tireless struggle against the activities of slavers in general and the Sakala syndicate in particular. You may be aware of information we recently released on the symbiotic relationship between the syndicate, the Valaska government and the Kenmorian corporation Construction Enterprises. We have been disappointed that this has, in many quarters, been received as purely communist propaganda. This collusion between government, corporations and criminals should be of concern to all irrespective of their politics. We should all agree that this is the unacceptable face of corporatism. My comrades and I differ only in that we do not share in the belief that there are other faces.
To this end we believe both of us would find our objectives furthered if you were to join in the exposure and denunciation of the current activities in Roztechko.
Please find attached a dossier on the activities of Construction Enterprises in a number of other developing and war torn countries, including details of their systematic disregard for World Assembly guidance on wages and conditions of employment, their use of trafficked and otherwise enslaved workers and the tendency of trade unionists, civil rights activists and other such individuals to "disappear" in the vicinity of their projects.
I would welcome the opportunity to hear your thoughts.
There is no greater honour than the condemnation of the oppressor!
Onwards to the breaking of a red dawn!

There are no individuals. There is no outside the text.
Grand Ambassador,
It is important that humanitarian aid is without conditions or prerequisites. We will therefore never place requirements on its delivery. It should go without saying that we are very happy to promote workers' rights and to urge all parties, in Posteastan and throughout the world, to uphold them.
It seems to us futile to expect the government of Kenmoria to rein in Construction Enterprises. The corporation no doubt bases itself there in large part due to that nation's noted reluctance to provide any kind of regulation of business, and in the unlikely event that it tried to the company would simply relocate to some other laissez-faire location. Neither do we believe this is an organisation familiar with taking directions from governments - it appears they expect the relationship to work in quite the opposite way.
Forgive me, but I do not think this is an issue on which we should be content to exchange vague statements of intention like bourgeois parliamentarians. What I have been able to discover concerning your, shall we say, forthright methodology leads to me to conclude that this is not a serious answer.
Nevertheless, thank you for your time.
They call for peaceful protest... with their boot on our throats!

Dear whomever left the dossier for us,
Thank you very much for your delivery of the materials; they were extremely useful to us and will no doubt put a large dent in the hide of Construction Enterprises. We would love to publish the materials ourselves, but fear the possible wrath of a much larger company were we to do so. Thus, we have sent, securely, the dossier to the Sunday Perspective, which we have instructed to publish in a double page spread focusing on the actions in Posteastan.
Yours sincerely,

There is a small problem with dispatching a fleet to this exercise. Schwarzenfels is entirely landlocked. We don't have a navy. I still think that participating in the exercise will be a great experience for our soldiers. Schwarzenfels will send a special forces unit, two helicopter squadrons and four elite airborne units to your Strike Groups to participate. I hope that this will find your approval and we will be able to increase our nations' abilities to defend ourselves when we come under threat. On Guard!
