TO: Nations of Atlantian Oceania FROM: The Federation of Novus Atlantica
While the United Nations wishes to label Novus Atlantica as being an anarchic state, we wish to confirm that it is not.
The Imperator, the Forum, and the Senate are all in firm control of Novus Atlantica. It is the fact that we wish to give our citizens the greatest level of freedoms that the U.N. labels us as anarchic. |

The Tropics of Vilita would request an official statement from the Novus Government detailing what measures are being taken to ensure this potential anarchic state remains under control. |

Novus Atlantica is nowhere near reaching an anarchic state. We look at it this way, the government of Novus Atlantica will not interfere in the lives of its citizens unless required.
Such interference comes in the forms of taxes, laws, and decisions that require the votes of the people.
Other than that the government of Novus Atlantica stays out of the lives of its citizens letting them do whatever they want as long as they do not violate any laws (such laws are few in numbers but deal with major issues such as murder, violation of another human beings' rights, etc.).

What measures are in place to prevent an actual anarchic state? |

Novus Atlantica apologizes for not responding to the question directed at us.
We have no real answer for your question though, as a state of anarchy has never been a threat we have made no precautions for it. It is the loyalty of our people to Novus Atlantica that prevents anarchy.

The nation of Abattoir would like to know how you keep your citizens in check. Do you have a police force, or do you just let citizens roam until something drastic happens and then investigate the matter? |

My government is confused by the term anarchy and state. These two concepts are indeed oxymorons, for an anarchic country or region seeks to destroy the concept of the state. That is the the purpose of anarchy. To destroy the state and create democratically elected workers collectives in its place. Indeed it does seek to remove insitutions such as the police force and the armed forces because it is believed that these things, which ultimatly are arms of the state are unnecessary and that when the state no longer exists the people will not need these things.
We believe that your government is purposfully attempting to decieve this region in some ultra left wing attempt to take control. We demand that delegates are sent to the country to review the situation.
If indeed our worries are true our entire region could become engulfed in this left wing menece. We will use all force available to us to make sure this does not happen. |

This is no "left-wing menace" as you so describe it. Novus Atlantica is merely denying its classification as being in an anarchic state.
May I also remind the arrogant Dartace that the LUCIFER project was never fully destroyed and it is entirely possible for the system to malfunction at any moment and destroy your pathetic nation's capital.

Reminder to Novus Atlantica: The use of LUCIFER without a more diplomatic attempt to settle the situation first would be frowned upon by the AO Hierarchy. |

To answer Abattoir:
There is no police force, however the Imperator's Guard, the Sardaukar, double as police units due to the fact that all nine of the Sardaukar legions cannot be guarding the Imperator at once.
Volunteer community watches are also popular in Novus Atlantica, but criminal acts rarely happen aside from such incidents as the attack on the Soul Expression ambassador. Of course acts such as that, murder, etc. haven't been occuring due to the recent changes in our government which are proving to be more appeasing to the people.
It is apparent to us that only if we move on socially will our crime be put to an end.

Puh-leeze. All Novus Atlantica is doing is protest its UN classification.
And Novus, because of that, LUCIFER will probably be completely destroyed now. |

The LUCIFER system was destroyed once on Earth and it has been re-implemented.
What makes you think I cannot do it again?
Besides, I was making it known that the LUCIFER system could malfunction and unintentionally fire. I made no threats.

If such a highly evolved system as Lucifer could fire without warning, perhaps it should be dissembled for the time being. During the war I entirely supported the NA and its efforts, but such an 'accident' would have to be checked by intervention from atleast my nation.
I do not wish to antagonize the government of Novus Atlantica against Xile, but I feel that this warning must be issued to keep this fragile peace going. |

The Xilian government makes a good point. For now, the LUCIFER project will be shut off indefinately until peace is restored to the region.

What exactly does LUCIFER do? |
