Multipolarity III - Game Thread

It remembered the jungle.

Scavenging for hours. Waiting for the response. The villagers arrived. Very late-response. They were not armed, but there were too many. It needed to wait for the right moment to strike. The bipedals inspected the meteorite. They will find nothing of note. It will be reported to authorities. It decided to wait. The bipedals leave. It waits.

Uniformed bipedals arrive in a pair. Their uniforms denote a higher-rank. It decides that one or the other shall suffice. It picks the one talking more. It might be the leader of the pair. Inside it, soft sounds and smells rise up from the mud camouflaging it. The authoritative partner approaches the sound. The back of its partner is toward It and it.

The authorative partner is hypnotized. It strikes it in the neck. Response is rapid, but It's response is faster yet. It embeds itself within-

And then I turn around, zipping up my jacket to hide the rapidly-recovering wound. Vibol Soun, my partner, sighs and places his notepad in his back pocket. "Damn villagers out here are afraid of anything. Something tells me regional politics will be slightly unstable the next few months, eh?"

Processing. I laughed, "Probably." Reference to video game codified. Will be cataloged to test importance.

"So, Pich, you find anything? If not, we should get going."

I smile. "I think the villagers left us something. Come and take a look at this..."

My mind is now two. I will take Pich as the central node. I think about returning to headquarters. I agree. But first, we will report our findings to the villagers. They will be interested in what I tell them.

Joining as a NGO.
Oh shish kabob. Somewhat evil goa'uld.

I think it would be pretty hard for the United Kingdom of the Netherlands and Scotland to coup 3 nations with 5 spies...

Regardless, we accept the offer of Personal Union with London and we'll tolerate Bavaria and France until we know what to do with them.
 
Professional opionion...south America is literally the only god damn place among minors where a nation's condition has been getting better.
Considering the Colombia-Amazonia War just ended by political Unification. And it elected its new leader.

What of Germany and Iberia?

You own half of Europe now, bro! :lol:
 
Il Papa is displeased by this turn of events. Deutschland and Bayern and London would be understandable, but Iberia and France going as well is quite unreasonable one would think. Either way, I suppose the Papal States does have a DP with the United Kingdom and otherwise has good relations, so I suppose papal displeasure shall find a more constructive outlet.
 
The bad news train continues to steam ahead!

==Operation: Red Gulf==

10 navies take up position tear Ormuz’s 3 fleets apart. The Ormuz Navy destroys one Adeni fleet.

5 more navies land 5 armies on Ormuz. The single army of the state puts up a fight but is blown away before it can even kill one of the Adeni divisions.

The government surrenders, knowing that the most prosperous country on Earth has just been completely demolished on the battlefield and has not the resources or diplomacy to fight back.

President Dennis resigns the office and flees the country. His successor immediately passes a bill surrendering the country to Negan and acknowledging his new leadership. As Adeni soldiers cut down all Ormuz flags and hoist the Aden standard in their places, Dennis’ last letter to the public is read aloud:

“God save Ormuz.”

Negan, being the considerate man he is, issues his own announcement to his new citizens:

“Where’s your God now?”

Of the Ormuz trade fleet, 100 goes to Aden. 133 disperses among neighboring nations.

With only 5 spies it would be extremely difficult for me to coup 5 nations successfully, anyways...

Oh Im sure it was a ball-roll effect. one nation went so political forces in certain other countries in Europe took the opportunity to bandwagon. At any rate as I said, the Holy See would be better served transposing its indignation into a more constructive area, and indeed we have just the something in mind.
 
Definately been the year of things getting worse and worse....with some bright events.
The Namibian War is definiately one.
 
Aden

As is the integration of that nation that was unable to defend itself into one far more powerful. :)

Let us be honest here. If we had invaded the nation quietly and not if for snooping GMsreporters, no one would even have noticed.

Thier is such thing as intelligence networks.
Thier is the fact that people will have fled to nearby nations.
It's not the middle ages.
a war happening is going to be heard about.

Stats

Summary

The bloody Namib-Sanguine War has ended at last. With the collapse of the Blood Empire’s government and its replacement by a shaky democracy, the state now finds itself as an ally and client of the victorious Namibians. The costs of the war are great however; the Namib economy has contracted severely due to having geared so many of its resources towards the previous year’s offensive.

Aden’s Negan continues to be vicious and unpredictable, having quickly seized control of Ormuz, placing great strain on the Spammer economy and causing much unrest in said state. In the face of ever increasing international sanctions, Negan and his allies in the ARMS Pact continue to remain unpredictable, with the world watching in fear of who will be struck next.

The Pax Pontifica over Europe has collapsed; five nations have declared loyalty to the Netherscottish King. The Papacy is limited in its ability to act, not wanting to irritate a country that could easily side with ARMS if convenient, and not wanting to worry about two fronts instead of one.

The Finnish Civil War continues with a stalemate, but with the Russian ruler increasingly leaving decisions in the hands of advisors, it is expected that this situation will not last forever.

Costa Rica has purged South America of most non-PATO influences, with coups favorable to the Koopa regime having taken power in Argentina, Chile, and Peru. Costa Rica now leads the world as one of the foremost diplomatic, commercial and military powers, but remains steadfastly neutral as tensions mount between HITSGDP and ARMS.

The HITSGDP remains strong, but a widespread seizure of its client states has reduced its global share to 46% of GDP.

Border Disputes

New Zealand-Papacy: 2

Neither side has shown any sight of budging, each claiming the other should turn it over. Hilarity – and anger - ensued over some of the arguments in the two states’ governments, naturally.

Events

Assimilation! 1 Ethiopian province is now Adeni. 1 Vietnamese province is Malay. 2 Canadian provinces are now Cascadian. 1 Chad province is now Ugandan.

Refugees! People flee Ormuz and Finland.

Many ports have closed in the Spammer Republic as a result of the Adeni acquisition of Ormuz; Aden says the blockade will continue until the Spammers’ Crusade withdraws from the HITSGDP and renounces its embargoes. Many shipping businesses are also going bankrupt with their markets cut off. (-1 Industry, -25 trade)

Guinea, with minimal inflation, a stable, open government, and low taxes, has attracted investors this year.

Large numbers of Russians continue to fill the ranks of the army so as to protect the Empire’s divine right over Poland, at the cost of economic growth.

The massive shift in the kingdom’s power has caused the government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and the Netherlands to see a boon to popularity.

The Omani people have increased their signup rates, fearing that Negan might go after them next.

Energy prices continue to freefall while raw material prices continue to shoot upward.

Uprisings

Every turn occupation damage is dealt to an occupier; 1 army per 5 provinces, and 0.05 Industry per province. This is default; actual triggered rebellions can intensify the effects.

Aden loses 1 army and 0.35 Industry. Malay loses 1 army and 0.25 Industry. Russia loses 5 armies and 1.25 Industry. UK loses 1 army and 0.3 Industry.

Union of Nations

The UN continues to remain useless while the HITSGDP leads the way in countering rogue states.

For 2505-2509, the General Secretary is the Papacy.

Being elected as general Secretary grants 100 influence points. Deputies earn 10 points per term.

OCC: EDIT: Herp derp nevermind.

IC:

@Aden: Remove your blockade immediately otherwise the Spammer's Crusade will be forced to dismantle your fleet and attack your provinces. This is your only warning.
 
Firstly, we would like to ask our allies of the ARMS Treaty if they would accept Netherscottish entrance into the alliance. We have talked it over; they will join if you let them.

Secondly, it concerns us that it appears the Spammers want to start a global war.

edit: Why is my GDP like half of everyone else's?
 
Secondly, it concerns us that it appears the Spammers want to start a global war.

No, we do not wish to start a global war. Aden does. If they didn't want to then they wouldn't be blockading me and conquering THREE nations. That's just not on.
 
Aden

Negan appreciates the offer, but must decline. He has articulated the following points:

-The Adeni army is nearly 3x the size of the Spammer.
-The Adeni navy is 60% larger than the Spammer
-The economies of the nations are roughly equal, negating any possible advantages.
-Aden has a much larger resource base than the Spammers, meaning it could quickly gain an economic advantage once a blockade was put into effect.
-If the Spammers attack they will attack alone, given that it would be an act of aggression.

This is not really an act of aggression on Aden's part, just an escalation of the already-existing embargo. You cannot expect us to not hurt your economy when you are already strangling ours. Call off your embargo and we shall call off ours.

Aden could always tighten the noose to include the Red Sea as well, if the Spammer government would prefer. This is simple economic warfare: you are crippling our economy, and so we must likewise cripple yours. Leave the HITSGDP with its self-righteous ideology and renounce its fallacious vendetta against the Saviors, and we shall be happy to let our people trade as friends once more.

==

Aden and Malay endorse the United Kingdom's bid to enter ARMS. May we all prosper from this arrangement.

==

Costa Rica announces its intention to stay neutral in the event of any ridiculous HITSGDP-ARMS war. Generalissimo Bowser encourages Tropico and Solitude to likewise keep its military interests in PATO and the Western Hemisphere, rather than concerning itself with the likely colliding agendas of the other two power blocs.
