Gold Reserves in your nation

Postby Alkoul » Tue Feb 22, 2011 2:55 pm

What is the estimated value of your nations gold reserves?
And what do your reserves look like?
=====================
=====================
=====================

Don't worry about us Alkoul has vast amounts of gold reserves we've been hording gold since 1179:
Image This would be only about 0.1% of all our gold, so we have a lot estimated values range from nearly 500 Trillion to 980+ Trillion.

The Government does not sit on a ton of gold, no. We have no reason to.

Only 300 million bonds in gold reserves at the moment, due to all of the expensive wars in which we have engaged until recently. We are currently increasing that by reducing military expenditures, such as eliminating the draft and establishing an all-volunteer, professional force that is smaller, but more effective at our new, more defensive policy.

The recent failed rebellion by Christian separatists in the far north has not helped matters.

The dragons have pretty much hoarded up our nation's gold reserves. You'll have to ask them.

We are unable to track a large portion of our gold reserves, most of it was hidden in foreign vaults by the previous regime come the revolution last July. We are taking efforts to get the gold back, but most of our known gold reserve looks like this.

Lebriel does not reveal our bank accounts to others just because they ask. That is vital information until the country is completely stable. The current value of the National Gold Reserves is thus heavily classified. To divulge this information without the correct security clearance papers would be harshly punished.

For a nation of six million people? Give me a calculator, some spare batteries, some papers and pencils, and I could calculate this "impossible to calculate" sum in a few weeks. I will bring along my own travel supplies.

You might die in the process, FT population is currently hovering around 500 trillion.

We do have a gold reserve it is kept at The United Imperial Economic Management Building in a vault in the deep basement, also housed in that vault is the silver reserves and the other precious metal reserves. The building also houses most government organisations with the job to regulate the economy.

We've got all the gold on Decepticon Earth, but it's not very valuable to us, so we haven't bothered to add it all up.

Unlike weird humans, we value our stuff based on how useful it actually is instead of on its rarity alone. Oil and steel are king.

For us, something like gold is only good for a few odd connectors and fancy filigree paint, so it's not worth much even though it's relatively scarce. Decepticons don't wear little doo-dads like rings, so there's essentially no demand to even bother mining the stuff.

Our de facto gold reserves are under heavy guard in various State vaults and storage bunkers. Needless to say, the value of them shall not be given.

As for the rest of our rightful gold reserves, they are spread around the four coners of the world due to the migrations of wealthy émigrés and noblemen who fled Sebastianalandia following the Revolution.

If you happen to find any Sebastianalandian émigré with substantial reserves of gold, would you kindly arrest the noble or capitalist in question and bring both them and their gold to us?
