*Presses buttons on remote control*

 

[D'Artagnan59]

Ah, I remember the flame war I had with human-slaughter in the first thread.

Don't recall what it was about.

 

[Fëanor]

Sauk reaffirms its own commitment to peace and neutrality.

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

@Feanor, well you should have honored the spirit of the treaty, shouldnt you?

From Republic of Italy
To Berlin Alliance

We have no qualms allowing New England to join.

 

[germanicus12]

Come on guys... my army is tired of marching and counter marching.

This is why France needs to leave. So my army can rest. Nonetheless it will be a fun war to watch but damn close to my borders.

On a side note: Front row seats to the Louisiana war are for sale at 1 EP a seat. Reserve now and get a second seat free! Right at the border of Deseret-Texas-Louisiana. You will never find better seats than this!

We pray that you see reason and not do anything rash that would jeopardize our long friendship.

King Shaka Zulu and his entourage would like to purchase said seats to said bloodshed...all of them. King Zulu likes his space.

 

[human-slaughter]

I really only recognized their independence so you monkeys would stop chattering about overpriced nerd models and get back to the game.

We have not yet shown aggression towards you; there is still time to turn around and preserve our alliance.

Since there have been no other offers... you can have all front row seats for you entourage. Since you are our biggest client, we are throwing in a protection clause free of charge. You will be guarded by the best troops Deseret can offer. When can we expect transfer to our account in the Caymans?

Better yet...we just spent all out nations money on a giant, flamboyant airship so King Zulu can watch the spectacle from wherever he pleases. You could see it easily...its covered in tiger skin and ostrich feathers.

At Adrogans...*clears throat*...BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA *cough* HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!

Ok then, have fun and be careful. We do not want you shot down now do we? That could cause an international incident.

Oh wait... that is what we want. Never mind go ahead and float right over the French Navy as they off load their troops.

Lurking

I just noted some points in this thread I would like to acknowledge (Most of which are in the beginning of the thread), and that is simply - when people spoke of me destroying Danish-Swedish relations, I giggled.

Yea, it was fun.

Spoiler :

@EQ/bestshot/whomever: could anyone explain me what happened between the Danish Empire and the Swedish Empire that now they aren't exactly in the best relationship?

Politics in the Danish Empire​

In the Danish Empire, legislative power rests in the unicameral National Danish Parliament, the Folketing. Each of the representatives of the nation has been chosen through indirect vote, with each party designing lists of possible representatives for each province and region and the voters choose the party over the candidates, as all of the candidates think on the same brainwave, so to speak.

Each party is represented by a letter, so that in the newspapers each party is known by it and not by the long names, which are only used in the sessions of the Folketing.
The five most important parties have representatives' lists in all the territories of the Empire, giving them the edge in every election, which are celebrated every 5 years.
Socialist: Dansk Socialistik Folkeparti (represented with an S)
Liberal: Dansk Fremskridtspartiet (F)
Moderate: Dansk Venstre Parti (V)
Conservative: Dansk Konservative Folkeparti (K)
Reactionary: Dansk National Arbejderparti (A)

There are also a group of minor parties in the territories of the Empire. These are normally groups of people that wish to receive independence and go their own separate way, but they are a minor group as the national parties have a bigger following. The most known of these are in the following list:
Ataqatigiit (Greenland Independentist Party, Q)
Sjálfstæðisflokkurinn (Iceland's Independentist Party, I)
Kommunist Parti (Communist Party, O)
Nijer Parti (Nijeria's Independentist Party, N)
Zambi Parti (Danish East Africa Independentist Party, Z)

The Folketing (Danish National Parliament) reserves a certain number of seats for each of the territories of the Danish Empire: Denmark gets 230 seats, Nijeria has 30 seats, Danish East Africa has 20 seats and Iceland and Greenland get 10 seats each.

In the last elections, celebrated in 1897, out of the 300 seats of the Folketing (Danish National Parliament), the voting gave each party the following seats:
Party Letter - Percentage of votes - Seats

S - 11.5 % - 22

The Konservative Parti won the elections with an absolute majority that would allow them to lead the country with commodity, as they would be able to push the legislature they wanted through without any problems.

I'm proud of you. *sniff* You're Danish, or are you just really good digging up information?

Though... What's up with building bridges? One of the bridges (Storebælt) was finished in 1998, and it nearly ruined us as well as requiring the uttermost modern technology. I guess you can build them, but I don't know of the actual stability of them. Then again, it could be that Denmark doesn't suck as much as it did OTL.

... Also, with my 4000th post, I would like to silently state that I do not think a recent action by someone in this forum was a good idea. That is at least what I'll be discussing in the newfound NESer alternate boards.
