The Hegemony (12th Feb = 2018, Part 2)

[Retech]

Japan congradulates Equatorial Guinea on their discovery of a tank.

 

--------

 

In other news, Japan pressures the United States to place an embargo on India. Meanwhile, they also put pressure on China because India is trying to free Tibet.

[Icuownage]

Russia agrees with a more economic alliance, they offer uranium (for fuel, as all our nuclear weapons were dismantled, we have a load of it lying around), they hope the Japanese can offer something better than timber

 

 

Russia offers an alliance with India (Hey I'm being neutral between you too, I'm just being friendly with everyone)

 

Also Russia offers Guinea to become their vassal state (I hope I get this the right way round)

[Retech]

(Japan is after timber. It doesn't have enough :P)

 

Japan offers its ultra-cool cars. Japan also asks Russia to embargo India. If you can convince India to stop blocking my political movements, then I'll be fine. Otherwise I'll have to embargo you too. :P

[Grim_]

Germany has granted greater executive powers to the chancellor Karl Wagner and .... *fades to a news report*

Anchor: *stereotypical german accent* This just in! In his first move with his new executive powers Karl Wagner has stripped corporations of their status as humans and is pushing a bill through the reichstage that will ban corporations from funding candidates and set a cap upon campaign contributions.

[Retech]

Fortunately the Japanese have several large trading partners elsewhere, and the lives of those in South East Asia would suffer much more. Trade doesn't seem to be one of your main points on Radio Free Asia.

 

Japan waits for Russia's response to India.

[Icuownage]

You have no reason to embargo Russia, Japan, such an act shouldn't go well with your people after we opened up a nice large alliance

 

As Russia is largely wilderness, we should have timber spare, we also offer some oil in exchange that Japan will also join on a technological advancement, as Japan is like one of the most advanced countries.

 

Russia claims they will stay neutral between India and Japan and have no interest in picking a side, if we're forced to pick sides, then we will sadly have to pull out of our alliances.

 

The merge with Kazakstan should take 1 or 2 years, we aren't annexing them, as they are such a poor country we want them to be a vassal state

[Retech]

Except that India and the South East Asian countries specialize in roughly the same things. An economic partnership with a different specialty would be much more beneficial. Besides, I began my overtures first. :P

 

Japan asks Russia to ask India to stop making overtures to Malaysia. The other nations are fine though.

[Grim_]

At the annual E.U. meeting (not sure about this let me finish up on my research) Germany again pressures for a more unified E.U. (It seems that there is some agreement in Italy and spain as well as luxembourge and ironically poland)

[Grim_]

I don't vote archi (retech do some research and check the G.D.P. of indonesia and malaysia)

EDIT: To make things more clear we do rather well without a mod and we simply do not need one so early in the game (we can figure out what is mildly reasonable by ourselves and a person not involved in the conflict and mildly knowledgeable on the countries can take the part of npc in conflicts)

[Icuownage]

We aren't picking sides, so that action isn't allowed

 

We advise both countries to either stop trying to take over the whole of Asia, we also tell Japan that India is one of the largest growing countries, apart from China, and allying with them is probably the best option.

 

We advise India that Japan-India alliance could benefit Asia immensely

[Nero]

Romania is willing to trade oil for uranium with Russia.

 

Project UV starts.

[Retech]

I think that's a bad example. The United States isn't poor, Canada isn't uber rich, and Mongolia is on the other side of the world. Economically you're similar. Lots of poor people and corruption.

 

ASEAN + 3 moves forward, especially in South Korea, which seems to be the most receptive to the talks. Malaysia is having a harder time, because of that Radio Free Asia thing. Talks begin to snag a bit.

 

---------

 

Japan says that an alliance with India is impossible if India continues spreading anti-Japanese propaganda. Otherwise, Japan would be very happy to undertake an alliance.

[Icuownage]

Russia offers an alliance with every country in the world (by that I mean all of you guys, not all those NPC's)

 

So can all of you respond, if you don't I will just assume you accepted them in

 

We send a team of ambassadors to all countries

 

Oh and to countries like Japan where we have an alliance, we set up a small embassy there, but say Japan cannot be allowed to enter the embassy (sorry)

 

Also, Russia begins a project

 

Project Umbra (It has nothing to do with shadow, I just damn like the name)

 

It's secret of the highest order, and only me and the closest advisors know of its existence

 

There is no set time on how long it will take to complete, as preparations are still underway

[Retech]

Japan offers the Russians an embassy in downtown Tokyo. The land is estimated to be worth millions of dollars.

 

Japan begins Project Squeaky Clean

 

------------

 

South Korea and Indonesia begin political integration. Malaysia seems to be fractured, half of the country near Thailand leaning towards India, while the area bordering Indonesia are leaning towards Japan. Tensions remain high, and the country might split into two! (That's my little compromise there.)

[Nero]

Romania accepts an alliance with Russia.

[Icuownage]

Squeaky Clean :o? I can only imagine it involves taking a huge bath... :P

 

Russia waits for the approval of every country accept India and Japan, as so far they agreed (India you said carried on, and as we were on good terms, I guess you mean carried on with good terms)

 

We begin building embassies in Romania, India, Japan

 

We also ask if some of our ambassadors can accompany a high up official in your country, so we can get a feel for your country

[Grim_]

Germany cordially denies the thought of any alliance (working under the E.U. right now) for how we deny it think the scene in 300 where the ambassador is kicked into a pit but instead of the kicking part bring in a state dinner where the food gave him food poisoning and the hooker that was sent back to his room was a guy.

[Icuownage]

Russia is disgraced by Germany's actions, for such a cold action, with no call for it, and killing a high up official of Russia, we trade embargo Germany. We also strengthen the military guarding the border that is on the side Germany is on.

[Retech]

Japan accepts the request and waits for a highly ranked official to accompany our guides around the country. -Hopes for Prime Minister+-

[Grim_]

(Icu I just gave your diplomat food poisoning and gave him a little surprise so to speak) Germany rather hurt sends a tankard full of beer to russia (little do you know that the beer is infected with genital warts... [i joke of course]) Also rocco check the wiki pages for malaysia and indonesia. Finally what makes you think they would give up independence in the first place?

[Retech]

Unfortunately for India, countries like Thailand, Burma, Laos, and Burma seem more interested than Indonesia.

 

----------

 

South Korea has been named the Republic of the Korean Peninsula, with Indonesia being named the Indonesian Republic. Singapore has accepted military protection.

 

-----

 

Grim, they've been trying to integrate themselves since the 1980s. There's already precedent.

[Icuownage]

Retech, we are hoping for one of my ambassadors to go around with one of your officials, not a tour around your country a such, but just a view into your power, like you would take us around the white house of Japan or the number 10 downing street, or w/e Japan has ><. If you want a Japanese official to do the same in Russia, we oblige.

 

We accept the gift from Germany, and the Embargo is lifted, by the forces arent pulled out.

 

We keep the beer for later, and will use it if Germany come for a little dinner, we also invite every country.

[The Dark Lord]

Well I didn't take European History, I didn't know how it ended, was worth a try ><

 

Aren't you living in England? You should know a little bit about European history.

 

After WWI, bundles of Deutschmarks were used as _______ ______ by children because money was _______ _______ than _____? (10 points) :P

 

Oh, and my chapter in AP European History deals with the postwar period between WWI and WWII. It has some pretty interesting and shocking things to read about.

[Retech]

The secretary of state heads to Russia for a week of booze and whatever else they do in Russia. My officials treat your ambassadors to the first piece of Sushi taken from the first generation of a new breed of royal manta ray.

They were used as firewood because it was cheaper to burn the paper than to purchase firewood with it.

Vietnam has been successfully annexed by the PRC, and radio stations have been set up to blare propaganda. The PRC also begins constructing a facility at a classified location, and also begins research on a new medical project.
