:P

Multi-culturalism is no bad thing...as long as you don't force your beliefs on anyone...unfortunately Humans are forever forcing their beliefs on others....Hence why I am generally against the principle.

[bleep]ing typing without thinking....

The Slavic Republic has purchased 191.3 tonnes of gold that the International Monetary Fund was selling for $6.2b.

The IMF has also re-located its headquarters to Bucharest.

 

 

 

Slavic Republic- Dusty

Gold Tonnes 1,597.80

US Dollars: 45,643,798,760.80

US Reserve 33,985,290,000.00

Norwegian Krone: 5,000,000,000.00

Foreign Currency in Dollars: 950,000,000.00

Total Dollars: 80,579,088,760.80

Dusty...Why would the IMF sell Gold? It supposed to be used in the case of internation breakdown and what not.

Also, why would it rebase to Romania?

As of June 2009, the International Monetary Fund held 3,217 tonnes (103.4 million oz.) of gold,[4][5] which had been constant for several years. In Fall 2009, the IMF announced that it will sell one eighth of its holdings, a maximum of 12,965,649 fine troy ounces (403.3 tonnes) based on a new income model agreed upon in April 2008, and subsequently announced the sale of 200 tonnes to India,[6] 10 tonnes to Sri Lanka[7], and 2 tonnes to the Bank of Mauritius.[8] These gold sales were conducted in stages at prevailing market prices.

 

And because Switzerland is a death trap?

EDIT: nvm, they're based in the US. Whoops.

Hehe

 

Anyway, what are you buying the Gold with, since you haven't reduced any of your figures and we have already talked about why using internal currency is a bad idea, not to mention the IMF probably not accepting it.

Hehe

USD, from my surplus. Let's just say I added the amount to my reserve (from surplus) and paid with USD from my reserve to avoid all the currency exchanging and whatnot that would end up with the numbers being the same as before.

The Last Cresent has reached saturation in Switzerland, preaching Strength through Disipline, Strength though Community and Strength though Action. Extolling the virtues of working together for a common purpose, as well as fighting against those who stand in their way.

This new generation of young people are being schooled in the way of life, as opposed to acedemia, with some few hundred thousand being educated to become the thinkers of the next age. The majority of these thinkers are the activists who don't want to be part of the Last Cresent, so isolating them it double plus good.

 

Some few individuals have expressed concerns over the responsiblity given to the teenagers, but the teenagers seem to be wearing the responsbility well, enforcing law and order, even amongst their own ranks. Crime has reached near infintesimal levels and unemployment, which had always been low, has now been phased out entirely. Massive Agraian and Industrial programs are being planned, with targets and rewards being given to the communties which produce the most.

The massive flux of activity has scared a few people, but with the progress becoming streamlined and innevitable soon Switzerland will have risen to new heights, more powerful than ever before.

Cool.

And now bed.

 

You're going to bed at about the same time as I am tonight. :o

 

You're up late. And I feel like I'm about to slump over from exhaustion.

Amateurs...

Sorry I didn't respond to your posts. Went to sleep early like usual! :P

 

---

 

Anyways, I'll try to remember everything I read, but if I miss something, then don't blame me. :thumbsup:

 

1. South Africa as a country doesn't need aid, but the fact is that South Africa has massive social inequality, sorta like Brazil before it fixed itself up through the righteous reign of the Doom.

2. Japanese aid workers quickly rush into the region immediately after the typhoon hits, thanking all international aid that has gone into Indonesia. Several aircraft carriers are being used to drop supplies into Indonesia (yay, finally a good use for a military object!)

3. Ross was supposed to get all of Guinea, which is the entire island (somehow he only got half). The total real life population was 15 million, and that was before I moved in millions of people as part of my construction project. The majority of the population is concentrated in the southern part of the island. The other parts are primarily rich rainforests, which have a diversity of wildlife.

4. The Japanese emporer goes and talks with the protestors, with no visible bodyguards (but they're there). This show of courage is supposed to prove that the Japanese emporer is willing to meet with the people, because they are his people. (Note that he still sits on a level higher than the protestors, for obvious reasons. He's the emporer after all!)

5. Japanese agriculture companies begun subsidizing their Indonesian counterparts to produce produce produce! This is to model them after the Japanese industry, which has some of the highest crop yields in the world, despite the small amount of arable land.

 

Japan asks the United States/Britain to inspect cows more carefully before they are killed. If this is ensured, Japan lifts its ban on beef from the United States.

 

Japan runs advertisements in the SR extolling algae-fuels cost-effectiveness and carbon-neutrality. "The same as fuel cells...for a better price!"

Scandinavia sugguests an alliance between itself and Saudi Arabia.

but the fact is that South Africa has massive social inequality

Switzerland starts an aid program to the USA, it is expected that annexation will take 5 days.=P (joke)

 

Yeah, Ross was supposed to get the whole Island of New Guinea.

 

Dusty, what do you mean amature? Regularly up for 24-36 hours, reguarly with 10-12 hours sleep...Compared with your 16 and 8 I have a far greater efficency.

 

 

So, currently there are electric cars, from Russia, Fuel Cell cars from Brazil and Bio-Fuel Cars from Japan(as the big three)...I am so glad that I use electric cars, mainly self built but with some import from Russia.

Then there is Solar-Hydrological power from Switzerland, Nuclear from SSR, Salt-Power from Scandinavia and good old coal and oil from the USA.

As for weapons we have traditional chemically propelled weapons from SSR, electromagnetic weapons from various countries, Telum and Nex weapons from Switzerland and a healthy doesage of information weaponary from just about everyone it seems.

SSR and Scandinavia are going to the depths, Switzerland-Russia-Scandinavia-Australia are going to the stars, Japan has space program.

Switzerland completely disavows foreigners, Germany is introducing literarcy tests with grandfather clauses, the USA and Britian are freezing immigration, the SSR is becoming more multi-cultural by the day and Japan seems to have annexed its way into being the most multi-cultural country.

 

The world is really devloping apart from each other.

 

Anyway, another P-Jet has been completed, up to 7 now, with 5 to go.

I don't understand what all those numbers mean, the gold, krone etc.

 

1 year into talks with Austria and so far there is only positivity between the two states.

Okay guys, I have some pretty big news.

 

A friend of mine (Who is pretty good at coding) took an interest to the hegemony after me and Icu talked about it in school, and he decided that he wanted to make it into a true game.

It's based on Google Maps, and buildings and such will likely be made in sketchup. I'll get more information when I can, and I'll try to pester him into signing up to TIF, so he can post stuff himself.

Yay...well, kind of...The more indepth it gets the less trival arguments we can have =(

 

 

Gold is how many tonnes of gold you have:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_reserves

 

Krone is because Mather and Dusty wanted to screw about with a very easy system.

 

Basically international trade, rather than relying on 'I tax my people and spend 80 quadtrillion dollars buying Mercury' I thought it would be a good idea to just go off Gold, since it has a relatively fixed amount...So if someone wants to buy something they would trade Gold and Gold would have a value(which is in US Dollars) and thus trade is restrained to only a few billion being moved around at anyone one time.

I see, so what exchange rates are we using for all the variou currencies?

 

Happily surprised to see that Italy has the 4th highest gold reserves in the world (2009).

Only krone has an exchange rate currently, going off wikipedia generally though.

Archi, you forgot I'm doing hydrogen cars.

What is the "US Dollars" stat in the "current countries tab" thingy? How much their gold is worth?

Gold is worth 920 Dollars per ounce. something like 30 million per tonne.
