The Leth Confederacy hereby embargoes Jakarta.

But no seriousness, Timor and Sulawesi, I can do this all day and night. Spartacus continued existence in your countries will not be tolerated.

And the same goes for any future Spartacus-backed states. It is like standing up to say, "I'm Spartacus." Only I'm going to crucify you with atomic ordinance.

Australian Confederacy (and remaining 110 in payments to Jakarta annulled

Embargoes are one thing. Not paying reparations owed us is another. The Australian Confederacy has 48 hours to resume payment. You know how I am about lapsed deadlines.

Spartacus gives it's sincerest condolences to those effected by this horrendous crime against humanity. Our agents in Jakarta only found out about Jakarta's nuclear power far too late, their valiant efforts to sabotage the bombs were in vain.

We can produce bombs faster than you can sabotage them actually. That's before getting into the bombs we bought from others.

We call upon all nations of the world to end the evil Jakartan regime. Those who do not help are cowards or as immoral as the Jakartan King himself.

With or without the world's help, we promise the people of Timor and Sulawesi that you will have your revenge.

This would have never happened if Spartacus hadn't been so arrogantly causing revolutions in Jakarta's sphere. If Spartacus hadn't been toppling governments, many Timorese and Sulawesian people would still be alive.

"Which is why we are going to nuke your populace, justifying a alliance with Spartacus against the evil Court."

Goon Squad would note that Jakarta's tactics are counter productive.

And the same goes for any future Spartacus-backed states. It is like standing up to say, "I'm Spartacus." Only I'm going to crucify you with atomic ordinance.

Goon Squad wonders if Jakarta wants to be destroyed: a nation that is willing to use atomic weapons, weapons that are designed not to be used, is a nation that is justified in being removed by other nations. Goon Squad may be mercenary in nature but we cannot tolerate such... brutal cruelty.

Goon Squad urges international condemnation of Jakarta and for preparations to host the refugees that will come flooding from the isles in desperate attempt to flee the wroth of a evil atomic force.

Jakarta has shot itself in the foot by its atomic tactics.

Yes, actually.

This is clearly all Spartacus's fault. I warned them. I made it perfectly clear what I would do. I made it perfectly clear that intrusions in my sphere will be met with utmost force.

As such, I can officially say that the field tests were a smashing success. It is a shame that 350,000 people had to be the first test subjects because of the greed and zealotry of their leaders.

However, it does goes without saying this is for now on par for course. Any intrusion in our sphere by a foreign power, whether a VNSA or a nation state, without our permission will result in a 24 hour ultimatum followed by first strikes.

Furthermore, any attempt to send troops and ships through our waters without our permission will, too, result in immediate escalation via land-based atomic artillery.

Now that everyone knows how this will work, no one can say that there was no previous warnings.

Jakarta has shot itself in the foot by its atomic tactics.

For a third the cost of an actual military invasion, I have greatly disrupted, if not outright destroyed, two national economies. The lost of some trade is little against the fact we are now selling atomic bombs to make up for the supply chain disruption.

The Roman Empire opens its doors to all refugees fleeing from Jakarta. even jakartan citizens are welcome.

Likewise, any Roman who wants to know how it feels to live in a country still relevant on the international stage and wants to know how it feels to live in a strong empire again are free to move to Jakarta.

After all, wouldn't it be nice to know what strength feels like?

We would like to remind you that Australia is under our protection, & the 501st Legion will come to their defense should Jakarta attack Australia.

That being said, we urge the two Australias to resume payments, as any such inter-PACIFIC conflict would not end well- not for Jakarta, not for the 501st, & not for Australia.

Would you repeat this and your "justifications" when other nations begin sneak attacks in utter brutal desperation to ensure your no long able to fire your nuclear weapons in fear you may make the globe your hostage? Fear is a great motivation.

you just blew up two nations... with a blatant disregard for human life... im pretty sure no self respecting Romans would move to a barbarian state like yours.

some still might move, though, we aren't fascists. unlike you.

Exactly. No one wants conflict, hence why my first reaction wasn't immediately saturating an already deadly continent with mushroom samba.

As such, I am glad to hear that repayment will resume, and because I have faith in the 501st, I will lift the Sword of Damascus (officially) from over Australia's head.

Emphasis on "might".

Nope. Because sneak attacks against us will end with hundreds of thousands of dead enemy soldiers.

After all, we are an island. We know all the landing sites on our islands. We know exactly how to aim an artillery piece or several hundred on all those landing sites.

Really, any attempt at launching a sneak attack will just end in gross failure and we would laugh, and laugh, and laugh.

Following rioting in the diplomatic center of the Lethian capital, the Jakartan embassy has been abandoned and repossessed by the Confederacy. Despite a period of cooling tensions, angry citizens took to the streets in protest of the atomic bombings in the Southeast, stopping just short of storming the embassy. One Jakartan diplomat was injured by the crowd and is currently in stable condition at an undisclosed medical center. Following the riots, the Lethian council has issued a statement declaring an embargo of the Jakartan embassy, and has refused to provide a new location for the embassy, or to restore the old one. "We don't see a normalizing of relationships [with Jakarta] any time soon, for us and the rest of the world," remarked the Lethian ambassador to Jakarta, David Leer. "In my experience, they are far too pompous and inept to make major strides toward peace. If there's a silver lining here, it's that the rest of the world will finally come to see Jakarta as detrimental to world peace."

New America would like to respectfully ask for the CSA to lift its embargo against us. We have done no wrong against their country.

Tasmania does not take kindly to threats against the Australian continent. Jakarta is embargoed. Jakarta's assets repossessed and the proceeds shipped to Jakarta.

Maratha cannot condone the mass slaughter of human beings and the casualness of Jakarta suggesting more are easily made. Embargoed. Jakartese assets seized, sold, and the proceeds shipped to Jakarta. Jakarta’s investors are no longer welcome in Maratha.

Guyana cannot tolerate such willingness to destroy the ecosystem of the planet. Jakarta is embargoed.

Peru understands that there are no nationalities, only classes, and those who seek to profit by maximizing conflict between them. Jakarta has massacred our working class brethren overseas, and so they are embargoed.

Belarus had hoped it would not need to take action. However, it is obvious the Court is drunk off power, and so it shall do what it can to rein in such excesses. Jakarta is henceforth embargoed.

Embargoes are one thing. Not paying reparations owed us is another. The Australian Confederacy has 48 hours to resume payment. You know how I am about lapsed deadlines.

On reconsideration Australia shall allow the flow of capital to resume.

Thankee kindly.

Thankee kindly.

I'm very much glad you two know what would happen if my assets weren't shipped back properly labeled, stamped, and approved.
