Return to Roots NES 2

[EQandcivfanatic]

erez, did you look at you army? You have upgraded. That's why.

Kennelly, your army is with the Egpytians as there is no other real way for Indian troops to get involved. Since the armies are at a chokepoint it makes it much harder for even armies of a larger size to break through. Although it is unrelated a resoultion just past prohibiting an invasion of Rome to remove the cult.

Dexter, you improve your economy by trade. I suppose it should go up for anytime i missed, but i sugegst trading with Russia or the new Nordic Republic.

As said before I am going on vacation in a few minuites and there will be no update until Sunday. Fortunately, Jason the King is also going on vacation so both the UN and RTOR threads will be dormant until we return.

Hmmm, I thought that I'd ordered my army to upgrade to Gunpowder Age too, by downgrading to medium.

Anyway, I'll just do it this turn then (so don't penalise me for having a large army with a stable economy lol, I'm downgrading it this turn to upgrade it, if you get what I mean lol!).

Orders:

Upgrade army to Medium Gunpowder Age.

Begin to concentrate on upgrading the economy by building the London Stock Exchange, and encouraging trade with other nations.

Also, slowly begin the upgrading of our education system, beginning by giving free education to all.

Thanks!

Emperor Titus had become the most powerful man in the Roman empire. For the last 10 years he ruled well. The council of Preists agreed to his rule. He had many plans for Rome.

From the Enews;
"...In an effort to boost the economy, Supreme Lord Scott has started a massive program to educate the people of Eithiopia. Knowing that he has nitwits to work with, the resources and time managed will be extensive. The people show their support with an overwelming support for their king....In other news, Egypt has given interest in their bieng troops sent from Eithiopia to Egypt to help rid the world of this 'cult'. This is suprizing considering the two nations not even 100 years ago were at war. This is truely a right step in the right direction in true peace between the 2 nations...The generals of Eithiopia have landed in Madagascar and have begun to teach the government how to run military exercises and how to finance a large military in conjunction with the Zulu government...The UN proves inconclusive and of no real power as they don't seem to agree with anything. Supreme Lord Scott has come home after wasting time with this frivolous attempt at world unity. Only his foreign Advisor has stayed behind to ensure that Eithiopia has representation."

To Egypt:
You give us a time and place, our troops will be there for you.

Orders:
continue to spend money to educate the people.

OOC:
It seems that other things are playing a part in this nes. Thats good, seeing that we together have created the biggest thread probably on the site! It's always better to move forward.
I want to put my 2 cents in.
I don't see the education as a major factor in military victory. The dumber the men, the harder they fight for even the wrong causes. Take real life for example. Bin Ladin's men are the bottom of the barrel in world education. They managed to shut down a nation for well over a month. They were sucessful, not because they were smart, but becuase the leader's leadership was excellent. I think that educating the masses has too much emphesis in this and there should be more emphesis on leadership and the ability to run a military.

Thanks for reading.

Education helps economy and science.

The size of the Arabic Army is swelling as volunteers flock to fight in the jihad against the infidels in Rome.

To the World: This cult has gone too far. The Holy Government of Shah Immam Antonyallah Muhhammad Nubriyah will not rest until this infidel cult and the sight against Allah is brought to justice. The choice is simple. Have me in the United NAtions, as the new Islamic Empire of Faith, or have the infidel cult of Rome. Rome I shall tell you will not last lonmg under the current government. We shall install proper government once we are through.

 

[Sheep]

To all Islamic Nations: The Islamic Empire of Faith, the former Arabic Confederation, calls upon you all to join us in our jihad against the infidels in Rome.

 

[Jason The King]

To The World,

Have you forgotten UN Resolution 2 (i think it is), denying the right for nations to invade Rome during this crises? The UN calls for all countries to cease their military action in Roman Territory, until their econjomy and military, not to mention it's people, recouperate. To take advantage of a nation during it's civil war is not acceptable, and if needed the Andes Confederation will put forth a Resolution to use military strength to protect Rome.

Andes Confederation

 

[naervod]

Actually we have the right to do so:
UN Resolution 4: Military (CC Votes)Yay: 1, Nay: 2
Forces would be used to remove the cult from power, BUT WILL NOT KEEP ANY ROMAN LAND.
Failed to Pass

We are currently using forces to remove the cult, and because the resolution did not pass, I will keep all Roman lands that I take until I see fit. Also, Rome is out of a Civil War and now poses a threat to the world in the form of Nostradamism.

Egyptian Caliphite
