ITNES I - An Epoch of Change

I am announcing that I shall quit Gaul. I do not have the time to plan for all the contigencies required for this nation and do not have the energy or time to attempt to save it from a likely doom - a doom caused by the failure of a nation to consider its allies in peace. The treaty has been posted far too close to the deadline, and I cannot, unless given clear response to my diplomacy, act for Gaul.

However, Azale, if you do not want Aryavarta, I will gladly take it ;)
 
Quiter! You are perfectly capable of running Gaul, and you know it. If anyone can run Gaul, you can. The only thing that would guarantee Gual's destruction would be you leaving it.

Anywho, sorry to see you go, but I'm sure everyone here understands, time is too rare for all of us.
 
Well, Gaul had some potential back then. ;)

Being shafted by one's allies when orders are due the same night tends to suck the enthusiasm out of you. I tried to make it work, but it seems now that it shall not.

Oh boo hoo. Grow a spine.
 
To Gaul
From The Punic Empire

Indeed we shall sign peace but only if Cimberland withdraws from Didonia and the Transponeic Sea Coastline of Gaul is handed back to the Punic Empire. It will be pre-war borders but pre- Fifth Transponeic War borders.
 
The pounding of the takuapu and the rattling of the mbaraka mingled with the crackling of the great fire. Dancers and ñanderu moved rhythmically around the fire, as the fat of the hunt and the first white corn burned in sacrifice to Our Eternal Great Grandfather. The shamans sang and chanted the songs of praise for Great Grandfather. Gathered around the sacrificial fire were the warriors and holy men of ten tribes, dancing and praying to their heavenly Great Grandfather.

The Grandfathers of the ten tribes emerged from the dwelling where they had deliberated in solitude throughout the day. Together they approached the ring of men and women gathered around the fire. The music seemed to grow louder and the dancing more frenzied as the tribal elders came near. The energy was palpable as the eldest of the Grandfathers entered the midst of the sacred circle and, at last, spoke.

"Ñandeva, Ava, people of the ten tribes," he began, "on this holy day, in the presence of Our Eternal Great Grandfather, here in his city of Ypacarai, where everything is consecrated in his name, we have made a great and momentous decision. No longer will the great grandchildren of Our Eternal Great Grandfather live apart and make war against each other. The elders of the tribes, who are wise and blessed by Our Great Grandfather, have agreed upon a compact to unite our ten tribes into one strong nation. They have chosen as the leader of all Guarani the wise and noble Grandfather of Ypacarai, who Our Eternal Great Grandfather loves well."

With that, the elders of the tribes placed a crown of Huanc silver upon the head of their new leader, and the dancing and chanting resumed more powerful than before.

The rituals and ceremonies lasted through the night. When the sun arose the next morning, and all the songs had been sung, and all the burnt offerings sacrificed to Great Grandfather and Great Grandmother, the people of Ypacarai and the guests from the confederated tribes broke their fast and ate of the wealth of Ypacarai.

Such was the birth of the state of Tavyterã.

Das, your PM box is full, so I'm going to post these here, and hope you get them. They're short, and pretty basic, since the nation is just starting, and isn't fighting anybody.

Spoiler Guarani Orders :
-Unite the Guarani tribes of Uruguay, the La Plata River basin, and the lower Parana and Uruguay River basins, under the leadership of the city of Ypacarai. Use religion (see below), security needs (Phoenicians), and commercial considerations (improved trade, cooperation on large-scale agricultural improvement) as reasons for unification.

-Establish Ypacarai as the center of the worship of Our Eternal Great Grandfather, the patriarchal god of the Guarani religion.

-Establish a new UU, the Guarini (Warriors): swift warriors, wearing hardened leather armor, and armed with strong composite bows, poison-tipped arrows, and large bronze knives; they are superior marksmen and excel at long-range combat and ambushes. They are also extremely brave, because they believe they are under magical protection from their patron spirits.
 
Panda, I'll make you a deal.

If you retake Gaul, I'll take Cimberland as was originally intended. And if you don't, I suppose that I could take Gaul, though I'd much rather have Cimberland.

(Das, if this is going to work, I'd need the deadline extended 24 hours, sorry.)

I could dig an extended deadline. (MjM is really tired and has homework and doesnt feel like doig orders this moment. :p)
 
Oh boo hoo. Grow a spine.

You know what? Shut up. Please. Weren't you telling me to stop making out-of-line and mean spirited comments somewhere back? Time is difficult to manage, and since Finmaster posted the treaty so late, I had about 5 hours AT MOST to do orders, eat dinner, do homework, and do whatever else I had to do. You being a multi-millionaire and international relations major, I would think that you of all people would understand that. ;)

Besides being a jerk, you're also a big hypocrite.

@Das: I can stay as Gaul if there is an extended deadline, though I know the possibility of that is slim. However, I will issue one last diplomacy:

TO: The Punic Empire
FROM: The Empire of Gaul


Unacceptable. We will only sign peace at pre-Sixth Transpoenic War borders. Cimberland will withdraw from Didonia, but we will not withdraw from our rightfully acquired territory along the Transpoenic coast. Let us remind you that it is not you but us who occupies land.

OOC: Get off your high horse Sheep.
 
@Grandmaster: Where is your nation?
 
das you need to clear some space, I may miss the deadline if I cant get the orders in. Sent email, although never used that before so....you know.
 
to Dukunnugeya
from Nortugal:
Of course, your neutrality is respected. Unlike the European allies we had or Carthage we do not hold a grudge for those who trade with our enemies as they do with us. We do not consider the sentence "those who are not with us, are against us" as true. No one is with us as anyone can see just now...
 
Couldn't send orders, because das's PM box is full.
