Posted by: Stralphi May 29 2004, 12:22 PM
The Stralphian government, on behalf of Prime Minister Teno Aleros, wishes for the annexation of two small islands near Stralphi. The transition of the indiginous people to Stralphians will be smooth, as their tribal councils will rule until the election of a new council for each island, interpretors and teachers will be installed in both islands, and they will be given representatives to the Stralphian Senate.

Here is a map of the area around Stralphi, with the two islands that the government wishes to annex marked by concentric circles:

The Tropics of Vilita are confused as to the grounds that these islands are being claimed?

OOC: You have to RP, not just claim, thats the whole point:)

Well, it started when some Stralphian vacationers(in both islands) said of tribal unrest. Also, there is evidence of mineral deposits on the islands. Our goal will be to stop the unrest and to mine with minimal tribal disruption.

While Nemya is in no close proximity to the possible annex, Her Holiness Iretta Jinx is interested in the vitality of the regional economy. As she believes these mineral deposits may enhance economic livelihood, we are inclined to NOT oppose the annex.

However, to attain a better understanding of the area and Stralphi's intentions Her Holiness questions the nature of these native people. Are they uncivil and their quality of life poor?
Also, Her Holiness is interested the habitat. Will Stralphi take precautions when dealing with he environment?
It should be noted that regardless of these answers Nemya generally has no objections

Please note that although the people are not primitive, deaths of their major leaders is the main cause for their tribal unrest, and they are not as governmentally sophisticated as the mainland of Stralphi.

Environmental precautions will be taken such that the animals and people will not be disturbed.

How do you plan on going about annexing two SEPERATE islands at the same time?

We plan to send interpretors, teachers, miners, and diplomats to both islands at the same time. They are small enough, and the Stralphian Peace Corps big enough, that this is possible. If this is not an adequate response, we will annex these islands seperately.

With your small nation and limited resources, how will these annexations be funded? I just don't see how it can be done. Please provide detail

Well, although my nation is small, it does have a dedicated population which would gladly help by providing interpretors, teachers, and diplomats.

The only problem would be mining, but once that gets started, I'd have more resources...

Her Holiness Iretta Jinx would like to convey a few words on the area of Stralphi expansion.

First we offer a few general statements:

The advancement of individuals of all nations is held in high regard of Her Holiness Iretta Jinx as it is with many other honorable nations.

The Nemyan government ascertains that the Stralphian government's intentions to be good.

The Nemyan government finds that Tropics of Vilita may be justified in their concerns on the ability of the Stralphi to annex both islands.

As a result the Nemyan governmental Chairman on Foreign Affairs offers the following:

Nemya would like to submit aide to the Annexation Effort. We will provide monetary support as well as general craftsman and what little mining equipment we have. In return, Nemya asks to send a small team of scientists to each island to better understand the environmental stability of the areas. A copy of all findings will be submitted to the appropriate authorities.

We are interested in any comments from outside sources.
We await approval or rejection from the Stralphi.

Implimentation will occur as dependant factor on the approval of the annex.
And yes, there will be cookies involved.

I have no objections to the annexation, however, I think it would be easier on the country if a larger country offered some sort of investment.

Um, on what? Clarify so I can give more detailed infomation where you want it. And don't answer "Everywhere", that's not specific enough.

Well, the first thing that will happen is that the flag will be flown. Not a big deal.
Next, we'll send teachers and interpretors to the islands to set up schools and the such...
Miners will start to come over, careful not to displace any native tribes.

Equal citizens.

Don't look at these as "Multiple Choice" Questions Stralphi, but rather pretend they are "Part II's" or "Essay Questions"

They will be fully integrated into the Stralphian election process and will be naturalized into Stralphian citizens.

Sorry, no essay. :-P

Now, when do I get my land? Just wondering.

I already told you, when you start answering questions posed upon you in a manner other than 'multiple choice'
