To: Argentina
From: Peru

We must apologize for having gotten a bit excited. Anyways, thanks for the thanks, and you're welcome. As for the plans Brazil told us you sent them about a joint invasion of Peru, well, either Brazil or Argentina is telling the truth; Brazil was quite clear on the matter, and that Argentina would be displeased about our airing of this issue openly, and Brazil while extremely aggressive has always been honest in the past - but neither can the Peruvian government register any past reasons to distrust the Argentinian government, so we'll take our time to work out which nation hasn't told us the truth.
At any rate, we'll see how the election goes, the Liberal party and the populace may choose not believe the government records, in which case this issue is moot (OOC: I will play in-character).

OOC: ... Who has the most to gain from the USA being tied down in a long war? The Pacific Concord, my dear sir.

OOC: Spielberg? Jew. Lucas? Jew. Japan? Jew. Coincidence? (http://www.southparkstudios.com/full-episodes/s06e09-free-hat)
If Washington's allies really believed this, wouldn't they have been blockading the Mississippi rather than the Atlantic? Well, come to think of it the USA has been investing in riverboats lately, but strange how the emergence of an American riverboat flotilla and the weakening of the blue-water blockade has seen a rise in proletarist spending, whereas before when there was no flotilla but a blue-water fleet they subsisted on their base income. I think our shipping actively avoids that area what with it overrun by proles... but by all means, ignore the Scandinavian merchants (and how Scandinavia's treasury is empty and it has spent almost nothing the last round on visible stuff).

OOC: Land route through Florida. No boats required.

OOC: You mean the Mississippi bridges? I just googled and I found one built in 1855, so I guess even a poorer America would have one by 1918, but they would probably have been blown up at some point during this war. Or maybe my geographical knowledge of the USA, or at least the Mississippi or perhaps Florida's borders in this timelines, is worse than I thought it was.

The Mississippi has hundreds of bridges by this period, let alone the use of barges.

OOC: Good point, but that's what riverboats and destroyers (don't know how far up they can go) are for stopping. Hmmmm, well I guess riverboats can't get all the way down, they shouldn't be able to carry all that much fuel and he's only got 11.

I remember hearing or being told that all but one of the bridges along the lower region of the Mississippi were destroyed, which is what prevented Florida from more easily invading. But then again, this was a while ago, so I could be wrong on the details of what I was told.

He was trying to say there was only one bridge OTL. Reading comprehension, bro, learn it.

Orders sent.

 

[Lord of Elves]

For some reason I have it in my head that the order deadline had been extended to the 25th; I'm not certain either way, so as of posting this, I am starting on my orders immediately.

[Lord_Iggy]

Posting before editing it in, I see. Or were there no casualties after all?

 

[Quisani]

Of course there wasn't a war. Any claims of conflict with in the United States are just superstitious lies propagated by foreign agents out to destabilize North American Security. All transitions were peaceful and determined entirely by the native populations. (OCC)

 

[Lord_Iggy]

OOC: We have never been at war with Eastasia...

In other news, a flag from an alternate history where Vinland got swept up in the same events that cast Harald II out of Stockholm.

Unfortunately, every time I look at it I start thinking of a bizarre combination of Yu-Gi-Oh, the Dark Lord Sauron, and Pokéballs. >_>
