Multipolarity IV Game Thread

[Lighthearter]

The point, New America, is that there are widows and orphans now because your men fired wantonly into a crowd. The circumstances don't matter; they were civilians.

It is your duty - nay, your responsibility! - to ensure they are compensated for the horrific and utterly avoidable loss of life. Occitania stands and insists that New America be answerable for her crime of mass murder!

Divide out the 40 Revenue and pay the families of the bereaved.

We feel no compensation is needed. The situation you describe is a twisted version of reality. My men were restricted to their singular Fort, named Fort Pershing, in anticipation of any foreign attacks on the nation of Burgundy. This organized assault on the fort may have been made by civilians, however they were civilians that were not only committing crimes, but they were putting the lives of my soldier's in danger; would you deny a man has a right to defend himself? When somebody begins to climb a fence of a military compound, or fire into it with contraband weapons, common sense says they will see a response from the military units within that compound. My men had no choice; the 'civilians' that were organized for this assault had free will to either continue about their lives or disrupt somebody else's. They had no cause to attack the compound, and even if they did they were guilty of assault, trespassing, murder, and countless other crimes; in fact the moment they began to attack the fort they ceased to be civilians, instead becoming 'enemy combatants'.

Ram Aballah IV, former Prime Minister of the brief Crimson Republic, hanged like a bad apple from the tree that dominated the Imperial Park of the Jakarta Court. Birds did more to Aballah's corpse than even his jailers during those hellish weeks in the Court basement.

But He didn't care much about the boy.

The Jakarta Court, unlike the Courts of Ceylon and Malaysia, was not taken by force of arms, and therefore had rulers that were not subjugated, but allowed in as equals. However, the Aballah line betrayed that mutual trust and it was only natural that, finally, the Jakarta Court rose.

The chancellor has gone in hiding. The Crimson King is nowhere to be find.

But not much can be done about that. The Crimson Court no longer called the shots. From this day on, the Court of Jakarta and her proud warrior race will call the shots.

The Jakartan King sat on the branch that the roped was tied around. The state press would want an opinion. And by that, they are doing just as they are being told.


"The Jakarta Court is just. The Jakarta Court is powerful. The Jakarta Court sees the truth. That truth is one that the Crimson "Republic", the United Nations, and Spartacus all fail to see. They're not evil for not seeing the truth. They're merely ignorant." The Jakartan King grabbed an apple and took a bite out of it.

"Strong countries and strong people have a civic, moral, and genetic duty to subjugate weak countries and weak people as to uplift the countries and people. It is through economic and military subjugation that the fruits of progress bloom. This tree, for example, is proof. This apple tree was a gift from the original Crimson King who, created a strong people and a strong country through sacrifice and blood.

The people of Ceylon and Malaysia, before the Court, were weak. Now, they are strong. They are equals in the eyes of the Court. Therefore, does it not make sense that our empire and our people shoulder a great burden? The Crimson Burden to uplift the politically, economically, and spiritually weak should be one every Crimson man and woman bear because it means progress and prosperity for their children.

But," The king took another bite, "Saying Crimson Burden implies we're the only ones who are strong. That's patently false of course. However, I have yet to strike true, personal alliances that feel the same. Until today."


A war for the body and souls of humanity is underway, cry discordia!

Whose side will you take, Soldiers of God?

You hear this, people of Burgundy? That's all you are to them! ENEMY COMBATANTS! For seeking to protest the military occupation of your country! Children and women! The old and the sick! Students and teachers! Now they're widows! Orphans!

THIS is what the Americans bring! Racism, oppression and twisted self-assured obsession! Is this what you want for your futures? Your families? Your children?

That's all you are to them! LET IT BE KNOWN! Protest and seek to tell the Americans that they're not wanted, and you become enemy combatants!

No. Let it be known, people of the Empire of France, that Occitania only seeks to conquer you for herself. She tells these lies, and expects others to stoop to her level. New America won't.

New America is in The Empire of France as a peaceful ally, with the troops there stopping any potential foreign invasions against you. Our countries are friends, and shall remain so. Do not fall to this Occitanian propaganda; use your heads, those reasoning skills that Ravus gave you. We did what we did to protect our men that were being attacked. If your family was attacked by a crowd, you would protect yourself anyway you could, no?

 

[KaiserElectric]

We agree with the Occitanian position. The New American nation is built on a foundation of lies, murder, and brutality. The massacre you have inflicted on burgundy is no different than the brutality inflicted on Chicago, and the continuing genocide of the molemen.

Trade between the Confederacy and New America is hereby suspended indefinitely.

 

[arya126]

We are sad to see nations so convinced by the twisted lies of Occitania.

 

[Lighthearter]

Clearly, they don't believe them to be lies. Your military occupation of Burgundy has ended in the massacre of thousands of innocent women and children, and you don't even see fit to sacrifice pennies from your budget to ameliorate their agony of suffering for the losses? You call their people enemy combatants for daring to protest? The protestors threw rocks and you responded with automatic weapons fire.

That is not self defense. That is deliberate slaughter of innocents.

[Mathalamus]

New America can agree to this full alliance in addition to the shared research program we already have with each other.

Very Good. the Emperor is pleased with your acceptance.

There has been no military occupation? They fired with contraband weapons and scaled the fences of the fort? Please, stop twisting the facts you monster.

OOC: Seriously read the update and stop deluding yourself.

Occitania is strong, and is therefore correct. Your arguments are invalid.

 

[Lighthearter]

OOC: Seriously read the update and stop deluding yourself.

OOC: You have no idea how this game is played, and how much your actions played RIGHT into my hands, do you? I'll make this clear to you right now. If you are somehow able to reverse your entire personality and stop trying to "win" this fight with me, just pack up, and head back home, that is the single most effective thing you can do to fight me. If you stick around, I'll keep spinning this incident larger and larger until you wake up and realize you managed to hang yourself. I just handed you the rope.

Still OOC: Go home, Arya. Before I manage to disembowel New America and ensure Occitanian dominion over Western Europe for generations to come.

[Mathalamus]

uh... i don't really understand the latest dispute. something about new American soldiers in Burgundy?

Arya's troops massacred 2000 peaceful protestors attempting a sit-in at a New American military base in Burgundy. And now he's refusing to shave 40 revenue from his budget to compensate the bereaved families.

From the Jakartan Office of Public Information
Regarding Sulawesi​

It has come to our attention that the legitimate government was overthrown by a the slave minority of said country. As we speak, the slaves are extracting retribution on former slavers, their families, and legitimate craftsmen and businesses that took no part in the trade.

Spartacus, the organization responsible for the atrocities and severe and several counts of breaches of the public trust, several acts of grand mischief, treason, assassination, murder, rape, and a slew of crimes that can not even be voiced in public, is hereby condemned, and its membership banned in the Jakarta Court.

Furthermore, we are offering military alliances with every government in the region. The Crimson Court, due to foreign meddling and internal treason, failed to protect Sulawesi. The Jakarta Court does not forget its friends, and it does not forget it enemies. We are asking for basing rights in the countries and permission to station troops in members of what shall be called the Pacific-Indian Ocean Co-Prosperity Sphere.

Sulawesi's government is illegitimate. Therefore, we are left with no other option but to declare embargo on Sulawesi. The island shall be placed under total naval blockade until such time the Sulawesian military arrest the new government, reestablish the monarchy, and put the slaves on trial.

Finally, on a pleasant note, we encourage governments of the PIOCP to....well, teach their subjugated people that rebellion and even thoughts of rebellion are not only treason, but the highest crime a human can possess. Failure to keep your slaves in check will result in the same rape, pillage, and destruction we all saw in Sulawesi.

 

[Mathalamus]

the Roman Empire would like to admit something embarrassing...

we are unable to pinpoint where New America is.

 

[Lighthearter]

New York and the surrounding area. Also has 20,000 men in Burgundy because imperialism.

[Sonereal]

OOC: New England area.

Brunei, Timor, Tamil, New Guinea and the Philippines join a full alliance and grant basing rights to Jakarta.

 

[KaiserElectric]

The Roman Empire should find better friends. The New Americans are as untrustworthy as they are unstable.
