To America
From Alaska
The Chicago Uprisings were clearly of Fascist nature. The Alaskan Senate nor People would support an Authocratic, Rascist, Capitalist movement aginst another Democracy.
As for our Economy, 20% went to Academic funding and 35% of Industry to Trade and Domestic Goods, for our people! I was saddened to say that 80% had, I repeat, had to go to Defense Funding because our leaders were certain that America or one of her Allies was going to invade. Such was the case, and we are still holding on, albeit from limp hands. Our Socialist Policies have increased the Alaskan lives! By simplfying the amount of products thrown at them, higher minimum wages and adding various Academic programs, we increased the Standard of Living. Caviar is disgusting.
You contradict yourself. The People voted for Socialism and independance. How can we dictate their way of life when they choose the ones who 'Dictate'? Have you seen our schools? Anti-market propaganda? We do no such things! There is freedom of expression here but they are expressing Socialism!

We have no problems with your war for unity we the Romanois. We clearly see that Venetians and Romans were Romanoi in the first place and that their nations and inserrections against Constantinople.
However the same cannot be said of Alaska, for many are Celtic and Spanish not American. We Democraticly opted for independance however the Venetians and Romans rebelled against the Romanoi. There is difference between Votes and War.

@ Kal'thzar, the orders were perfect, thanks!
Okay, can anyone else who is sending orders please do so by friday midnight GMT deadline?! Its an actual deadline this time. I promise to be less lazy also, and hopefully update on sunday night again.
/edit: I meant to say before, eco points can be spent to hurry up research project, as well as just investing in science generally, if you wanted to.
To USA and Germany
From Celtonia
Given the USA's aggression in Alaska, and Germany's occupation of mexican territory, we see no reason why we should listen to your opinion of the situation in Acadia.
To Iroquois
From Celtonia
Plans are underway to establish an autonomous protectorate (OOC: puppet state) in the province of Acadia that is currently occupied by our forces. Celtonia is working for the best interests of the people there, and wishes to strongly deny that this is 'imperialist' expansion...

To Mexican Republic
From Spain
Welcome brothers and sisters. We are overjoyed in your decision to become apart of our family and look forward to working together for a bright and glorious future. Know that we shall do our upmost to assist you in anyway possible and that we will respect your authority within your own affairs. With such cooperation we look forward to the future, and as the first step we would like to suggest a joint construction of the Univesirty of Archaology dedicated to the study and preservation of the legacy of man. Hopefully our efforts shall help further secure Mexico's rich history, and perhaps expand itself to find the unsolved questions of our past.

To Iroquois
From USA
The United States would be glad, however there is the fact that the original Democratic Acadian Government were overthrown in a fascists coup. The then fascists coup leaders were captured by mostly Celtic Special Forces...
To Celtonia
From USA
The United States would not be against the reformation of Acadia under American sphere of influence. We reiterate our well known position on Celtic influence in American shores.

Regeneration In Process
Second Chance.
There exists a theory according to which any man has just one big chance to become... great, in the usual meaning of this abstract word. Yes, any - whether a tramp or a prince. But - and this is the problem - this chance, in the 99% of all cases, comes either too early or too late for the man to use it properly, to become trully great. Only a few can and do make the right choice just in time, just when The Chance of Greatness comes.
Another theory that might be considered heretical by the followers of the previous one says that one gets lots of chances. Just use one - and you might either die in misery and mediocrity, either become "great". Or, more probably, you will go on with your life. Waiting for the next chance, mayhap. And then, the one after that. And like that, until you die, one way or another, whether succesful or not.
Leon Cugnot wasn't feeling succesful. Rather to the contrary, actually. His chance probably came too early for him to use it properly. Or was that just the first chance? Or was there any chance there at all? Regardless... here he was, a former Octave, under control of those who overthrew him... with his own help. Discouraging. But, really, that wasn't too important for Cugnot. No. The worst bit was that, well... France has fallen. France fell to the Committee of National Defense, a vile self-serving oligarchy that only pretended to stand for the people. That Committee was even worse than the old fascist regime, for it had somehow blinded the people, for it had managed to hijack the revolution and to make the people think it DOES stand for them. Oh, the Committee's rule was mild now, but that would change when it grows more confident. That was rather inevitable.
And for now... for now, the Committee was merciful. It even lifted the house arrest, though it felt more like an insult than mercy. It lifted the house arrest... and replaced it with secret agents that were making sure he doesn't try anything. Just in case.
The worst of it was that at first, Cugnot actually believed they would let him go now. He still was... naive, as Jomini, that traitor Georges Jomini, put it. They replaced the strict, overt control with just as strict, but better-hidden control, control that went... unnoticed, most of the times. Cugnot himself only became convinced that they were watching him when he, through careful observation, established that some people - he indentified three of them, two of them women - were following him no matter where he went outside of his house. He was quite sure they also had some way to look after him even in his house. Or would find a way.
Right now, he couldn't see any of the people who were... watching him, but possibly they were hidding better this time - he didn't always notice them, after all, only when they weren't careful enough. Or maybe they sent someone else to spy on him. There were too many versions...
Leon Cugnot was in a bad mood. He was too immersed in his thoughts to notice much of anything around him; thankfully, by now he knew the road to the newspaper's publishing house. Thanks to his old connections - really his father's - he managed to get a temporary (so he planned) job in a liberal newspaper, as a columnist. The newspaper owner - Henri Peiler was initially, like all the other potential employers whom Cugnot approached, wary of hiring such an odious person (though he never explicitly stated that), despite his "pity" for him, but later, "for old times' sake", or maybe out of hope that this might interest people, agreed. Cugnot didn't like his job - not only was it many steps down, but he also was skeptical of his own writing abilities, yet at the same time irritated by the fact that he often had to change lots of things in his column, to avoid offending anybody at all. What's the point of a political newspaper then?
When he finally arrived at the publishing house, a guard informed him there was someone waiting for him inside. Surprised - and wary - Leon Cugnot walked into the house, and almost immediately bumped into a well-dressed, elegant middle-aged man, who asked Cugnot whether he was "a Leon Cugnot". When he admitted that, the man immediately offered his hand to Cugnot.
"Robert Cadenet." - the well-dressed man introduced himself, shaking Cugnot's hand - "Come, mssr. Cugnot. I have a certain offer for you... the newspaper will wait, I talked with mssr. Peiler. We must speak in private - I know a restaraunt half an hour from here, it is quite good and, more importantly, reliable..."
Cugnot's heart begun beating faster as he nodded in assent and listened to Cadenet's explanations about the exact plan of the meeting. Could it be?..
