It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad, World

May our empires prove grander than ever seen!
 
For sale:
The tiny patch of land owned by the Soviet Germans betwen the Sjrb-Scandinavian border, east of Nyland.
Price: mostly negociable. 100$ might work.
Offer is sent to the leaders of the Sjrb Empire, the Imperium of Man, Iraq,Catalonia, Sweden and whoever rules Kola.
offer is NOT sent to the Society of Friends or any nation not based in Europe.
 
The Imperium of Man asks "is that New England dollars?"

What ever the case we might be interested in this patch of land for a possible trade post... unless the Norse fancy the land.

What ever the case we will help ensure the Serbians do not buy it.
 
Those are Soviet German Dollars.
Transformed into New England Dollars, it's 170$ . don't worry, it's not your fault my economy is stronger.

Anyway, I am sending my previous letter to the Society of Friends AGAIN, in case they changed their minds and want to avoid slaughter. It is not a joke and more agressive actions towards you will follow if you refuse again.
 
...well in that case we will invest enough imperial pounds to purchase this land.

£135 will do?

By the way: how small is this land your selling? It is a entire province or just some itches of land? What ever the case we want the trade post build on it to make us of this cheap price.

Okay, how do people still not get this? We need ports for Shatterdomes. You can't defend the Pacific Ocean from a farm. You do it by beating the blue acid blood out of giant ugly bastards. Do you people even remember the Golden Gate Bridge? That thing was pretty damn big. It also lasted about 35 seconds.

I, King Robert Fitzgerald Kennedy, also wonder what a "New English Dollar" is, last time I checked our nation used the New English Pound Sterling.

I, King Robert, Hubmly request that Georgia be added to England. Canada has no claim to it, We will acknowledge your claim to Greater Louisiana, but Georgia as one of the Original 13 North American English colonies should join the Commonwealth.
 
Fighters of the Free Greek Army, under the command of Captain Nikolaos Palaiologos, have landed in Athens. The have managed to encircle the surprised Sbrj forces and kill more than 3,000 soldiers with only 700 losses. After the victory FGA fighters have blown up all government buildings and banks in Athens and have taken hostages 300 Serbian civilians. They have also cut the heads of 700 dead Serbian troops, as revenge for their 700 losses, and have put them in the Church of Athens as a pyramind and named them "thropy of the Greeks from the Barbarians".
 
In the port of Peraia

A Greek man comes near Captain Nikos.

"Captain Nikos, we must leave the city of Athens before strong Serbian forces come."

"Yes. Tell all the men to prepare, for the ships are coming. We are going to retreat."

"But, sir, will we manage to retreat fast enough?"

"We will! Or we will die fighting the damn Barbarians!!!!"


3 hours later

The majority of the troops have started to enter the ships and leave Athens. But suddenly, 3,000 Serbian troops come to the port. Captain Nikos, along with 300 men, has taken a fortified position and now he will try to slow down the Serbs until all the troops leave Athens.

A soldier comes to Nikos.

"Sir, my name is Giorgos. You called me, sir?'

"Yes, Giorgos. Tell our 300 troops to fire with their machine guns at the enemy."

"Yes, sir."


The 300 Greeks fire their machines guns at the Serbs. But thousand of Serbs charge at them. At the same time, Serbian planes bombard their position. But Captain Nikos and his brave 300 men have managed to stop the Serbs long enough for the rest of the army to leave.

"Sir, the ships have left. But our ammunitions have ended."

"Now, Giorgos, let's all charge at the enemy!!! Death to the Barbarians!!!!!!"


Nikos and his 300 brave men charge to their deaths. As they pull out their swords and run to the Serbians, the Serbians fire at them with machine guns and kill them all. The 300 men have sacrifaced themselves for the nation.
 
Spoiler WiP :
The Military of the Republic of Sweden

The Republic of Sweden's military is divided into the standard army/navy/air force. It specialized in rapid response to threats overseas, utilizes quick but very well practiced deployment to attempt to end wars quickly, and uses the element of surprise to annihilate any threats. The majority of its military uses cutting edge technology developed at the Stockholm Testing Facility, one of the best R&D facilities on the planet, located 10 miles outside of the capital. This testing facility houses the R&D for the national military, plus the R&D for multiple other companies based out of Sweden. The military is compromised of about 1 million soldiers, with another 1.5 million across its territories (see The Swedish Regional Guards Divisions), and a total of 3 million men and women able to fight for their nation in a crisis in just Sweden alone. Many of the men and women in the navy and air force also can be deployed as marines or soldiers wherever needed.

The Swedish National Army
The Swedish National Army is comprised of roughly 500,000 soldiers, not counting COs above the rank of Colonel. 75,000 have specialized jobs inside of the army, from medics to engineers to tank drivers. Although soldiers are allowed to purchase whatever weapons they want to use (as long as it is ammo compatible), every soldier is given specified weapons by the Swedish Military upon joining.

Specialized Forces
The Swedish National Army has three Special Forces teams, info about which are rarely disclosed. They use extremely advanced weaponry, stealth equipment, and recon equipment, and are designated for different tasks. The Swedish Paratrooper Brigade is used to drop behind enemy lines and perform sabotage, take out HVTs, and rescue downed pilots or stranded soldiers. The Swedish Ultramarine Brigade acts similarly, but uses coastal insertion instead of aerial insertion. The Swedish Protector Division is an elite group of soldiers tasked with fighting in mountainous and snowy environments, and will do so in either enemy territory or to protect Scandinavia from invasion.

Okay, how do people still not get this? We need ports for Shatterdomes. You can't defend the Pacific Ocean from a farm. You do it by beating the blue acid blood out of giant ugly bastards. Do you people even remember the Golden Gate Bridge? That thing was pretty damn big. It also lasted about 35 seconds.

A Mari Usque Ad Mare. This is not negotiable. We want access to the Pacific Ocean. The PPDC can share the Port of Vancouver with full rights to onshore facilities, but we want control of the city itself and shared rights to the port.

I, King Robert, Hubmly request that Georgia be added to England. Canada has no claim to it, We will acknowledge your claim to Greater Louisiana, but Georgia as one of the Original 13 North American English colonies should join the Commonwealth.

Done. Georgia is ceded to the Commonwealth.

The territories we claim at Gatineau will be the full extent of core Canadian territorial claims; that is, territories that will be directly annexed to the Republic. We will have no further territorial demands.

The Threads of the Manx Imperium

The Grand Duchies, Direct Duchies, Doge Realms and Other Direct Vessels to the Emperor with the Additional Notion of Court Posts of the Imperium of Man


By Cristeena Mylchreest, Court Historian to His Imperial Majesty Emperor Illiam II of the Imperium of Man

Many lands make up the Imperium of Man, its first ruler being Empress Johnet Kermeen the Pius who has in founding the Imperial Church of Man declared that "each realm will in becoming of Man will be one with Man but governed with each custom of its own let set to the will that the world will know." She founded the Imperium after a simple claimant of Ulster and Liverpool; at her death and the crowning of her successor Magnus I saw all of Ireland and nearly all of Great Britian under Imperium rule. To keep his siblings at bay Magnus gave made his sister (the second by Johnet) Aelid the dominion over Ireland and to his younger brothers, Fynn and Martyn, gave Scotland and England respectfully. Wales was granted to Aland Lewin, he becoming the first imperial doge in order to help advance the economy, while Cornwell as it got conquered was made a duchy that answered directly to the emperor instead of a grand duke, the first Duke of Cornwell being Magnus's aunt Ysbal. Now under Illiam II many lands belong to the Imperium, the system of feudal dominion used as a means of maintaining the empire by localising rule to the lowest level. From the village leaders who would answer to the barons, mayors and bishops, all to the way to the grand dukes and imperial doges answering only to the emperor and his closest kin can one see the grand hierarchy. As for the grand duchies and those in charge of governing then, as well as the provinces governed by a imperial doge, comes the importance of a list of said figures of authority.
