StKNES5: A New Lease on NES

[Lord_Iggy]

From Vietnam
To Malaysia:
So easily you side with the barbarians in Karakorum? Our long relationship of alliance, trade, and common Balist faith means so little that you ally with the Tatars who seek to destroy us?
We hope you reconsider this decision; if not, then it will be apparent that the abuses of the Nurajids have truly purged Malaysia's leading classes of true Balism.

We are going to be pressuring the Kuril'Taria to cease their actions in Vietnam, no need to worry of that friends.

We still, however, await their response.

*Secret, keep it out of NPC hands!*
To Somalia
From Ophir
Our brethren, for your own well being, we must insist. Our peoples are all that stand in the way of the heathen Zulu and the destruction of African Jewry. Together, we can re-create the glory that was African Jewry in the great days of the Israelite Empire, before the line of Solomon and Sheba died out. Apart, our lands could easily fall to the barbaric, heathen might of the Zulu. For Africa! For Torah!
*/secret*

To Ethiopia
From Ophir
The African Knesset understands your un-willingness to advance your position through political union with Ophir. We ask, instead, that you join with Ophir in a full alliance (not a mere defensive alliance, like the Jerusalem Defense Pact). Together, none can stand up to us.

To the Zulu Empire
From Ophir
The African Knesset requests a pact of non-agression to last five turns.

 

[Kamilian]

From Zulu Empire
To Ophir:
No.

From Somalia
To Ophir:
*SECRET* For now, let's just keep it at an alliance, then, as we are not strong enough to fight back the Zulu who are on our borders even right now.

From Ethiopia
To Ophir:
We agree to alliance, then.

 

[Israelite9191]

NOT SECRET
To Somalia
From Ophir
We invite you to join our alliance with Ethiopia, to be termed the Judean Alliance, barring no oposition from Ethiopia. If Ethiopia objects, please join with us in a bilateral alliance.

To Ethiopia
From Ophir
Please accept Somalia joining with us in alliance, which will be termed the Judean alliance should Somalia join with us.

 

[Kamilian]

Ethiopia and Somalia accept Ophir's proposal of Judean Alliance.

To Malaysia
from Kuril'taria
If you wish to side with the weaklings, so be it.

 

[Dachs]

I'm sorry, but my absence for the next few weeks is probably going to preclude my involvement in this NES for awhile. Please NPC the Byzantines until I get back and can exercise a measure of control over the country. (probably the next two updates). I'll try to send some sort of general order plan sometime soon.

 

[Lord_Iggy]

To Malaysia
from Kuril'taria
If you wish to side with the weaklings, so be it.

I'm sorry it had to come to this.

Vietnam, Malaysia will aid you.

 

[lordnickigawa]

From Japan
To Travancore
I accept the idea of opening a trade route.

From Japananananana
to kuril'taria
I will agree with the defensive pact of east Asia.

 

[Kamilian]

Tibetan Separatists agree to Kuril'taria's offer

From Jewish Sultanate of Morocco
To Mediterranean Kingdom:
We propose that all Iberia become part of your kingdom, with the exception of Gibraltar, which shall remain Moroccan. If you agree, we will also stop trying to proselytize so much against your people and allow free passage for all people between our empires.

Frin Mediterranean Kingdom
To Jewish Sultanate of Morocco:
Agreed.

So orders are due next Wednesday?

@Kam: do I have contact with non-American nations? Which ones?

 

[Kamilian]

this coming Wednesday - June 21st - is when the orders are due

you don't have non-American contact but can Illinois for contacts with Eire, Japan, Kuril'taria

 

[Kamilian]

not a single set of orders yet? not even a story from anyone?
diplo has been posted by people, so i kno it's not that everyone lost interest, but... just kinda curious that there's no stories, and despite certain people having governments that demand review of orders, i have yet to receive a single set.

 

[jalapeno_dude]

From: Amazonia
To: New Illinois

May we have contact with the nations you have found outside the Americas?

 

[Israelite9191]

Oh crap! I forgot that I was a republic now. OK, writing orders now.

 

[Kamilian]

From New Illinois
To Amazonia:
We will give you contact with Eire in exchange for 2 spending points.

 

[jalapeno_dude]

From: Amazonia
To: New Illinois

Are these people at peace, or are they involved in war? We wish only to trade with peaceful nations, so it does not cause controversy.

EDIT:
From: Amazonia
To: Toltec Republic

May we have contact with the nations to the east, where you have a colony?

 

[greenbud69]

My orders will be in tonight. I wrote them already, but forgot to send them. I'll try and contact Ostegan. He might not be able to send orders because he just moved to Colorado.

EDIT: This post was by JUSTOKRE, I didn't realize Greenbud had this computer so that it automatically logged onto his name... tch.

 

[Kamilian]

From New Illinois
To Amazonia:
We hear that they're having a war with some people on their own continent, but it's not near us, so it should be fine.

From Toltec Republic
To Amazonia:
We'll give you contacts with the Yoruba for 2 spending points.

 

[jalapeno_dude]

From: Amazonia
To: Toltec Republic

Do you plan to continue attacking the Yoruba? There isn't much use in trying to trade with a nation that doesn't exist anymore...
