"The USSRK will take the deal, being more focused on avenging the countless dead. We also have one request: we be the ones to receive custody of the Dutch government."

Fortunately GUN has remained quiet on non-intervention here, so you'll squeeze in nicely. You can pick up all the nuked pieces.

(Best part is that since all the Oranjes were vaporised, more or less, you can recreate the culture however you want)

Alefuryan News:

Alefurya announces the defeat of the Congo Rebellion, and purchases 1 Medium Missile.

---

Scientist Karl von Stacheligel has been awarded a medal for his contributions to Alefuryan technology. He declined the bonus associated with the medal, saying that there were people in far more need of it. Stacheligel is known for not being limited to one field, having spent many years studying numerous sciences and having absorbed them like sponges. Some of his main achievements have been refining the efficiency and lowering the costs of renewable energy, as well as inventions meant to help the sick, disabled, and elderly live healthier, longer, happier and more productive lives.

Stacheligel is also notorious for refusing to use his brain for military purposes, as a pacifist. It is for this reason many assume that he was chosen with bias by the equally-pacifistic Maximilian.

The Kaiser has also stated that he intends to hire him as the next Minister of Science, given that the incumbent is preparing to retire.

While the details have been kept confidential, Stacheligel has been given a loan and several assistants as part of a new project. In a press conference, the scientist stated that while the Defense Ministry under Retiebra aims to improve the efficiency of combat, his project will improve the lives of all those touched by it and other misfortune.

---

The Kaiser has also put forward the "Alefuryan Economic Independence Package" that will work to stimulate the manufacturing sector.

"While we enjoy good relations with the USSRK, we cannot let our economy be destroyed as everything in their country is. We must seek independence out of necessity, even if it will hurt their growth numbers."

The Kaiser was alluding to the fact that the Orient has been a manufacturing hub for more than half a century.

The package will provide twenty-five billion a year in loans, grants, subsidies and other incentives to create a domestic production base and lessen the dependence on imports. The Kaiser retaliated against claims it would make goods more expensive by saying that the increased employment and opportunity would create a stronger consumer base and make it all balance out in the end.

no you haven't. you have 4 provinces. 4. you just failed in limiting byzantine power. i can only hope you realize that.

additionally, you'll never be able to pose a threat to Byzantium. ever. we do not recognize your crappy nation and we hereby blockade it from sea, and air.

sorry, USSRK but something came up. you can have all of south Africa.

you can have custody of the dutch government. for obvious reasons

If we're no threat to you, why are you blockading us?

 

[Mathalamus]

If we're no threat to you, why are you blockading us?

um..

Blockade lifted.

Sure.

 

[Cull]

Dunno if you're aware Mathalamus, but interventionist means basically Tailless should be doing what I was doing before, you know, sticking my nose into people's buisness.

The Cape is economically interventionist. So, the government has a large degree of control (though nowhere near total) over the country's economics and finances. Diplomatically, we're a neutral nation and generally non-interventionist.

 

[Mathalamus]

Dunno if you're aware Mathalamus, but interventionist means basically Tailless should be doing what I was doing before, you know, sticking my nose into people's buisness.

let me say one thing. just one thing: don't. ever. do. it.

 

[Tee Kay]

I'm sorry, the Byzantine Empire has no right to dictate our foreign policy.

Not that we would meddle in your internal affairs, of course.
