NES2 VI - Last Semblance of Order.

From Afghan Khanate
To Ottomans
Brothers? You have manipulated the word of Allah beyond recognition, you are no child if Islam, you are a brute that wishes to opress the world. Be gone, may you never darken the faith of Islam again!

To Egyptian Caliphate
We feel that you are being overly ambitious in attempting to control a majority of the Arabian Peninsula, afterall, you have not even established a government yet. However, we are very negotiable on the terms of our borders, but feel al-hasa should be within our realm of control as the majority of the populace is shi'a muslim. We feel we have drawn acceptable borders based on geography, populace, and economics, what do you say to it?

OOC: I am curious in finding out what the "Caliphate" will do next... I have this strange feeling that Thlayli and stormy will duke it out in central asia and the caucases eventually... ;) Thlayli, you still owe me an eco point :p you never did pay back that loan... :mischief:

The Qing Chinese Empire would like to inquire upon the stance of the "Caliphate" upon their stance of the Central Asian territories under Russian and Chinese control that were once part of the "Caliphate" centuries ago... :mischief: And whether or not they have any desire upon them...

I doubt it.

Considering they just claimed Anatolia I wouldn't be suprised if they did.

@dis, it's all about equal rights and etc :p Oh yeah, you reminded me to send Cixi's grandfather to Tibet :)

IC: China also must inquire the "Caliphate" position on the varied religious institutions and beliefs of Islam. (OOC: In other words, will you be a liberal, moderate, or hardliner when it comes to following the qur'an.)

We thank our allies for remaining on the side of reason.

Yes, the Spanish had recognized our claims earlier, but I do not know what has possessed them.
 
To: France
From: Zulu
Will you not aid the zulu by supplying us with weapons. If so we will guarantee you some claims along the African coast.
 
From the Zulu: I would ask all nations to aid Africa in its time of need. Those who help will be guaranteed trade from my nations. Do you not believe in freedom? Do you not believe in another strong ally to aid you in your own times of need? If you aid us, your deeds will be rewarded.
 
The Portugeuse had brought down the Zulu Nation. But, in the African sun there was still hope for Africa's people. Qwabe stood by his council. They were debating over what the situation. The generals planned their tactics. Qwabe just stared into the sunset. His men were eating their meat. Qwabe still grasped the ivory tipped spear he had carried from the beggining of his empire.

"How are we to fight such a power as the Portugeuse! They will hunt us down like antelope."

Qwabe turned around to face his men. "It is not the end my friends. As long as a Zulu lives, there is no end. We will never surrender this soil. We have fought and died. We have also fought and lived. This is only the end of the beggining my friends. We will not let them take our dignity. away! We are a proud people and will not fail." At this moment the entire camp was in awe by the sheer presence of their leader, "You men are fighting for your emperor. We shall shape our fate, just as it will shape us. We will fight. If we do step down than what are we. If you do not all stand and fight for a free Africa, then what are we. If we do not not fight than we can only dream of such a world. But if we stand and fight, then there are no boundaries. We must call all Africawns to rise up and be heard. This is our land not theirs. Men, women, and even young children, must all stand up and asnwer the call. We must all unite as one. Remember this is not our time to die. This is our time fight. Rise up men of Africa. Rise and brake your shackles. This is your time, this is our time. We will not fail. We are the zulu. Stand and fight for freedom. Death before dishonour. A life not for the emperor is not one worth living. A dead zulu is not just a zulu hero, but an African Hero."

A grand cheer erupted from the men. They felt a feeling of nationalism and pride. Mpande, Qwabe's son, watched in awe at his father. Many men had told him the spirits and very essence of Africa flowed threw him. When Mpande, looked into his eyes, there was no fear. He was truly a god. Freedom was coming and the tides of war would shift.

We are just being sure that sometime in the future, they will be given independence. We don't oppose you occupying the lands now, but we feel that a long term occupation with lead to more chaos.

EDIT: Das, you still haven't given me my economic and civil leadership increase.
 
I was actually doing research, if you are wondering, as to what areas that I currently occupy are Orthodox and which are not.
 
Open Letter from Chancellor Aleksei Bestuzhev

"The situation we find ourselves in today has been brought about by the irresponsible and inefficient actions of the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire. As per the agreement with the Ottoman Empire, the Ottomans were to withdraw from predominantly Orthodox areas of their Empire by the end of this year. However, the Sultan chose to ignore this treaty and to continue to occupy and oppress millions of Orthodox people in the Cuacus and Balkhan regions.

"As a result of these actions taken by the Sultan the Russian Government found no other course of action but to liberate the Orthodox areas of the Ottoman Empire. Currently Russia is in occupation of these areas, and the governments of Armenia, Serbia, and Bulgaria are currently being set up with the help from Russian military and civilian leaders.

"The city of Constantinopol has fallen into disorder during the crisis that took place in the Ottoman Empire, and Russian troops have occupied the city in order to protect Orthodox citizens who lived there from the Sultan and his army. This great Orthodox city will remain free from the Ottoman Empire in the future.

"Attached to this letter is the map of the guidelines Russia intends to use when setting up the new states. The borders in the map follow ethnic and religious borders and will thus produce the most stable states that we can hope for. We must again stress that Russia will not interfere in the crisis that has developed in the Muslim parts of the Ottoman Empire, as our only goal is to secure the freedom of the Orthodox populations that look to Russia for protection.

Umm, you would not be unaligned if you just chose to align yourself with us and the Krakow and the Spaniards, etc. Only for your best interests.

Please...do not make us laugh. What authority to you have to do such an act! (seriously dude, rethink this, you will likely be crushed with very little resistance considering how the confidence levels are and the military against yours)
