We offer to sign peace at current borders and cease expansion in Scandinavia.
 
Like I showed HUGE favoritism towards Siam in that engagement, considering your armies were off in different directions, and your people aren't cultured enough to give a crap.

Siam is nothing more than an NPC that I write stories, and actively engage in diplomacy for.

If you can't handle losing the first phase of a war because YOU messed up, I don't even want you here. Capi'latsu is now NPC.

I guess Capi'latsu will cave to Siam's demands, considering the situation.

Man, you always gotta pull some . .. .. .. .. .. .. .. . out of your ass to justify everything when you don't even KNOW why I dropped. I don't give a damn if I had to pay you 2 tribute every year or if my armies fell into a damn river and drowned, I am leaving this because of my own reasons and I'm not going to clog up the thread with details, so don't EVER talk for me and make up . .. .. .. . in my regard.

King Conkwi is the First King of the Second Dynasty. Still rulled by the Eater of the Sun he rose to powet as the only relative due to a long series of single child Kings during the "Teacher War". He is taller than others and more freewilled than the other Kings. And it shows in his behavior. He often traveled to distant lands. Deep into Siam, to Han China, to Gojoseon. He learned history philosophy and such as he ruled through messangers. When he returned he was twenty years older and much wiser.

When he did return he carried a case of worms and a case of fabric. "These Silk Worms made Silk!" he called the morning after his return, "They eat leaves of a Beorn* Tree and if you boil them after they silkify you can string the silk!" He energy was contagious and soon he lead his thinkers to feed and grow the Silkworms.

"We shall have a container!" they said "We will harvest the worst and let the best live. So young of the best are even better! We will grow Beorn Trees from China and let our workers help us harvest them." They did that, it cost hundreds of coins but the trees are planted and the walls set. They harvested 50 cocoons the first year and made three Scarfs. One was given to Conkwi. One to the Leader of Siam and one saved to sacrafice to their god. As the cocoons hatched they recorded the moths and they stayed inside the walls. Seasons later they laid hundreds of eggs and they laughed, however, it was to labor intensive and as they laughed they swore to make it easy to harves hundreds while keeping it a secret in the Kingdom to all but those who pay. (or force it)
 
Here are the orders you missed the turn before last. Expansion is the third spoiler. West Africa is mentioned there.

Carthage Orders
Spoiler :
Carthage/DarthNader
Aristocracy
Age:Bronze
Color: Dark Orange
Economy:Growing 3/2 (-1 upkeep)
Army:2(Stone age)
Navy:5(Stone age)
Sciences:1
Culture:0
Wonders:Great Port of Carthage(+economy, +navy)[2/5]


Spoiler :
Spending
- Spend 1 Jack on upgrading the entire Navy.
- Pay Romans 1 Jack for southern half of Sardinia and the land on Sicily.
- Spend 2 Jack (economic expansion) on importing massive amounts of slaves from Carthage's new territory in West Africa.


Spoiler :
Expansion
- Send half of the army south further into the Sahara.
- Send half of the army to West Africa, approximately halfway between Alderion and Beneria. The troops will solidify Carthage's hold there, expand, and ship as many slaves as possible back to the Med.


Spoiler :
Foreign/Domestic/Peacetime Military
- Begin long overdue trade with Alderion and Egypt.
- Begin trade with Rome. Also, enter an MPP with Rome.
- Develop new UU, the Carthaginian War Galley Fleet. These vessels are the most formidable in the world, and are the brainchild of Carthage's massive focus on naval combat. They are armed with fixed projectile launchers, many rowers, sails, a capped ram, and marines useful in raiding and ship fighting. They will cost 4 Jack per fleet.

I hope this solves the problem.

Wonders:The Great Stone Soup Bowl(+culture+Economy)[Complete]

Spoiler Orders :
Not for Louisianna to see.
Spoiler Louisiana will be mercilessly crushed if it reads this! :
Just messing with ya, go ahead and read I don't care.
Spoiler :
ORDERS:
Spend 2 jack on science.
Spend 1 jack on navy.
Spend 1 jack on army.
1 stored jack is for upkeep.
Begin new Wonder: Camp'ells Soup Bowl (+economy)
4 armies will guard Minnestron from attack by Louisiana by guarding the Minnestron-Louisianna border.
2 armies will be used to continue expansion in the same places as last turn.
Both navy divisions will patrol the coastline near Louisiana border to prevent their navy from entering.
Any movement of more than a messenger from Louisiana into Minnestronian territory will be seen as an act of war.


The Great Stone Soup Bowl was finished, and was a great source of pride for Minnestron. However, having only one great stone monument was not enough for the Minnestronians, they wanted another. And so it was that Master Chief Camp'ell decided to make another, slightly smaller giant stone bowl, and have it filled with an easier to make, cheaper soup that is more filling. This soup was to be called Camp'ells soup, and so the monument is to be called Camp'ell Soup Bowl.
 
Darth, you were wanting me to send fleets with armies to land in west africa? If that's the case, you should have said that. I figured you wanted to send armies southwest from carthage propper.

No, I meant land troops via ships...I thought it was a given...since any other means would fall way too short. Sorry for not being more clear, will try to be more in the future.
 
Sumeria looked at its fight against the Russians and Arabs with great pride. They knew that as long as the Egyptians were out of the war, their nation would continue to exist. The Russians and Arabs were pushed back from their taken lands. Russia still continued to hang onto its gains, but they were losing large amounts of ground against the Sumerian armies. The Emperor, Annunaki, led the Vultures into Ur himself. As soon as the push into Ur happened, the rest of the government was informed (it was too unsafe to enter Ur, Arabia still controlled some land), people rejoiced, and a two-week holiday was celebrated. Annunaki had survived the push into the Arabian-occupied region completely unharmed. Not even one scrape or a bruise. The Arabs wanted Annunaki’s head, and not only did they fail, they never even got a single microscopic mark on him.

The soldiers then paraded into the city of Ur, saluting the Urrians as they went along. The Arab weapons, which were weak stone weapons, and Arab treasures, had been paraded through the streets. Many festivals were celebrated in honor of this. The biggest event was the parade. Floats were made in honor of the many battles, including the Battle of Larsa, the battle in which the Arabians were pushed back to the deserts outside of the Euphrates. Each division had their own float, pulled by oxen and horses. The soldiers and close friends roasted their comrades and made jokes about their superiors. Even the most serious generals could barely breathe! Of course, Annunaki had a sense of humor. The Arabians only occupied a sliver of Sumerian land, but it would be taken within the next few years.

After the parade, Annunaki received a message from the Arabians. “Sumeria, we offer peace at your current borders.”

“Ho-hoh! The baby little Arabs want a peace treaty! At current borders, no less! Look, people! The wimpy Arabs are scared of our wonderful Vultures! And they actually expect us to hand over land, even after they collected all of the balls to break our NAP with us, let alone occupy our capital and threaten to burn it down! Haha! Arabs, here’s what I think of your offer!”

Everyone expected what was to happen next. The Sumerian king then took a crap on the Arab leaders’ statue’s face, wiped his bottom with the peace treaty, and signed it with his spit, “No.”

At this point, the entire city of Ur was on their knees or lower from laughing so hard. The Sumerians had just gotten started with their strike back against the Russians and Arabs. The Sumerians were fighting back.

To: Arabia
From: Sumeria

No.
 
To Sumeria
From Arab Confederacy

Yes indeed, peace at pre-war borders will be acceptable to the Arab Confederacy so long as you also re-sign the Non-Aggression Pact that was shattered by foreign deeds.

ooc: D'Artangnan you do realise I sold the ENTIRE population of Ur into slavery, and sacked the city (looting the valuable goods in the city).. Your story does not make sense!
 
To Sumeria
From Arabs

Majority of them have since died, it seems that Sumerians make unsatisfactory slaves for the desert nomads of the northern tribes, and the date and cereal farmers.

We will however pay a jack in compensation, provided no more claims are made against any Sumerian that now lies within our chains.
 
One jack? One jack? After MY capital was just looted? MY people killed? MY people forced to do work for desertfolk? And you only pay me one jack in compensation! This is an outrage!

One jack per three turns as an indemnity. That's more like it.
 
To Sumeria
From Arab Confederacy

People are expendable... If you attempt to fight us in our desert homelands you will find the true power of Arabia... We urge you to reconsider our offer as it will not get any better.
 
From the Kingdom of Egypt
To Arabia, Sumeria

Slavery and human sacrifice is condemned by the Lord Ra, or Osiris, or whoever we're worshipping at the moment. None of them like it.

We officially abrogate our non-aggression pact with the Arab Confederation.
 
To: Arabs
From: Sumer

Then it is war.

To: Egypt
From: Sumer

We thank you for your anti-slavery speech. We Sumerians don't like slavery or sacrifice of humans either. We let our people live freely because we Sumerians are good people.

NAP?
 
ooc: Slaver is condemened!!!! Every pre-industrial society had slavery as a basis of their economy.... Egypt actually more so than others. Good luck running the Nile without it!

To Egypt
From Arab Confederacy


Indeed your pathetic attempts to justify the tearing up of our agreement shows that Egypt is gearing itself for war against Arabia! We shall stand ready if you do follow through on your nefarious plans.
