Excerpts from recent speech from Muammar al Qadhafi to the people of Tunisia

Tunisians! Today is a great day! We have worked on improving the quality of transportation deserved by all Tunisians and now we are going to embark on a journey to reclaim some of our past!

*insert cheering here, pan camera over happy crowds*
*cut back to President Muammar al Qadhafi*

I have signed the plans into actions today to build the worlds best and largest irrigation system! We will reclaim the history of our past, we will rebuild the breadbasket of the Mediterranean!

*cut to an attractive female crowd member (Tunisia has very loose rules regarding women, kind of like modern Turkey, I mean cmon he has elite female bodyguards!)*
*cut back to the President*

We are also going to embark on retraining our military to take make them the elite of the elite! We have stregnthened our ties with both our Socialist brethren and our Islamic brethren! Tunisia will become a nation we will be proud to hand off to our chinldren and our children's children and our children's children's children and our ...

*edited for brevity, show some kids smiling*
*back to the long winded President after cutting 15 minutes of the speech so as not to bore our audience*

Are you with me Tunisia? Will you work to leave a legacy to your families of which you can stand tall and raise your heads in pride! Allah will guide us to the right and just place Tunisia deserves!

First Citizen Putin praises the Stylish One on his most eloquent speech to date!

To Venezuela Socialist Republic, Arabian Umma, Tunisian Arab Jamiyrah, Pakistan, Northern Collectives, Mesopotamian Union, Alaska Republic, Sudan, Nigeria, and any other major oil producing country I may have forgotten.
From FEAR

Our nations together control almost all of the world's oil supply We propose that we reform OPEC in order to exert production limits so that we may control prices which will allow all of us to mutually benefit from our oil production. OPEC yielded great profits for many of your nations in years past and we feel it can do so again.

All of us are in need of increased revenue thus we propose that all of us slash our production this year so we may raise oil prices.

From: The Confederacy
Xavier Suarez holds a monopoly on more natural gas than any other country in the world at this present time, as it resides in the Gulf of Mexico. If fossil fuel prices climb too steeply, the Confederacy will provide an affordable energy alternative.

OOC: Why did my Secretary of the Interior sign a peace treaty with FEAR?

 

[Karalysia]

Because we kidnapped him and forced him to. Don't worry all is well. He's hanging out with Putin, it turns out they get along well.

Here's them agreeing to the land division:

Here's Putin showing Bush his vintage car collection:

Now they're going to get some drive thru burgers from White Castle:

They came back to the embassy drunk. And they lost the car. Bush was designated driver.

They partook in drunken shenanigans:

At some point they cross-dressed:

There was much revelry:

They gave a press conference still drunk:

Putin was amused being a Russian but Bush hungover:

 

[Crezth]

OOC: The Cult of Putin becomes more awesome every time a picture appears in this thread. INES II has achieved epic status just for that.

 

[Nuka-sama]

Wait what? My SoI can't do that...

 

[Karalysia]

Wait what? My SoI can't do that...

Don't be like that. We had a special connection. It was beautiful.

Putin bought flowers:

Went for road trips:

Shared a nice walk in the forest:

Went fishing:

Planned a vacation together:

Went golfing:

Viewed nude statues:

And had dinner:

 

[Kraznaya]

I'm afraid I will have to withdraw from this NES. The weekly story requirement is too much for the current things I have planned for this forum, and I cannot devote the time it deserves.

Please NPC Indonesia in the character I have played.

 

[Karalysia]

What weekly story requirement?

 

[Imago]

I have no problem with you withdrawing, but what weekly story requirement? Nations whose players write some some sort of story each turn get a small bonus. That's it. I wouldn't want you to quit under false pretenses.

In other news, if you're sure you want to quit, I would really appreciate if an experienced lurker takes Indonesia, figures out what is going on, and sends some form of orders. In this case, one more player would be easier for me to handle than one more NPC.

 

[TheLizardKing]

It will be a shame to see you gone Kraznaya..

Please, I hope Indonesia goes to a good player...

Well, Morocco puts itself forward as willing to be leader of Dar-Al-Islam. Thoughts?

 

[Imago]

Well, 'leader of Dar al-Islam' is more of a de facto than a de jure position, and since you're the most active player left in the organization, I guess the title goes to you by default.

Which at OTL 2000, expensive to refine and at our collasped state, possibly only starting to learn. (Remember that for years, they just burn the natural gas they pumped out of the oil well)

 

[Terrance888]

The Leader of our Clerical Fanatics. Osama Bin Ladin, our Secretary of the Military, is ready for his first mission.

 

[TheLizardKing]

Yeah, and I know it's not really a ruling title, moreover a political.. message me type of thing. Charles, are you okay with this?

IC: I agree.
OOC: Don't you realize most countries has atleast an unreliable source of oil?
