StKNES5: A New Lease on NES
- Thread starter Kamilian
- Start date
When studying the present situation of a country, it is often useful to look into its past. The Nurajid dynasty, which still exists today, is the only one that organized Malaysia has ever known. Before the Nurajids, barbarian warlords ruled the infant nation from around 2000 BCE to 1419.
The Nurajid dynasty started millennia ago, when Rajil and Ijail Nuraj defeated the last of the Malaysian warlords. Rajil died in that final battle, so his youthful son Ijail took the throne. He began the process of modernizing and advancing the nation, sending emissaries to nearby countries. For many generations, the Nurajid dynasty ruled alongside the elected council, and Malaysia prospered. But soon, several events would throw it dramatically into the Oriental spotlight.
Balism, the ancient religion of Malaysia, first appeared near the end of Ijail's long reign in 1357 BCE. The prophet Karzil destroyed the last of the pagan worshippers in mainland Malaysia, then disappeared. It is believed that he was brought up into the sky to oversee the balance and adjust the scales of the universe.
In 1298 BCE, King Ijail III rose to rule after the death of his short-reigning father Ijail II. He began the construction of the Golden Ports of Kuala Lumpur, now known from the furthest reaches of the Pacific to Israel. He pushed for union with the Papuans, but this angered them, who declared Malaysia to be 'undemocratic'. The proposed union with Papua also created tension between Malaysia and the other Australian nations (excluding Perth), who feared military actions against themselves from Malaysia. This distrust has lasted for millennia, and has flared into outright war more than once.
King Murzil was responsible for bringing Malaysia into the most devastating war the Orient has ever seen. Nihon, a majour power at the time, had attacked Fuzhou. Almost all of the Oriental nations came to Fuzhou's aid, including Ijail, hoping to expand Malaysia's indonesian holdings. The war raged on for over a millennium, borders shifted like sands in a windstorm, but slowly and surely, Nihon was forced back into its own islands. Finally, peace was signed, and Nihon was reduced from an empire spanning the entire western Pacific to a nation containing 4 islands.
Malaysia, inarguably, came out the best over everyone in the war. It became the majour power of the Orient, filling the vacuum that Nihon left. But it would not seek to dominate through violence. Malaysia is today a place of religion and culture. Trade, shattered by the Nihonese war, is redeveloping, and Malaysia hopes to lead the way. Balism is spreading all over the known world, explorers discover distant lands, and the people are happy and prosperous. It has been said before that Malaysia exists in a Golden Age, but that has never been more true then now.

Rules have been updated.
If you sent orders already don't worry - I'll do the stuff for you on my own this time. Most have not sent orders, yet, however, so you who have not must do your orders according to the new military increases with whatever calculations are needed.

I like the new rule changes, but might I suggest getting rid of the old military increase rules; they're in the post after trade routes and cities of culture/education/religion

To Malaysia
From the Greater Democratic Commonwealth
Those islands you question are under our control and are territories of the Greater Democratic Commonwealth. There will be no vote. The people of Western Papua who do not agree with our dominion are free to leave to any nation of their choice. The main population of Nihonese will be returned to their mother country, no Orientals have a place in our Commonwealth.
We put you on notice, that any futher interference in this matter or comment will result in an immediate decleration of war and the commencement of hostilities between our armed forces.
To Perth
From the Greater Democratic Commonwealth
We propose an alliance to ensure the Oriental menace of Malaysia and beyond does not take our lands and push our collective peoples to the brink of national extinction.

The old military post is deleted.
Sheep, just saw your thread, and I hope things work out for you and your family.
But I do need to know if you will be able to post diplo and do orders or not. Yes, this is trivial considering your family situation, but I do need to know, or else I will be confused.

To: GDC
From: Malaysia
Like I haven't heard this before
. I thought the story might help you too see things from my perspective. I DON'T WANT AUSTRALIA!Okay, Malaysia accepts the offer of the GDC. The two Puny islands south of New Guinea will be handed over to the GDC-again. New Guinea is all yours.
To: Irian Jaya (Western Papua)
From: Malaysia
We are sorry, but none of us want any more war. The GDC will treat you well. If you don't wish to live under their control, our navy can ship you out and you can live peacefully in Malaysia or Nihon.
Have I actually received an economic bonus for slaves? I don't think so (except the four eco's), it was 90% death camps and the chain-gangs were mostly to delude them Iroqs of any notion that we were actually just going to kill them.
Just my way of preempting a slapdown through arguments but I guess the story might do that.
You have an... interesting story going on there in the east. What the heck are you fighting for? Such a faroff place; to me your war seems meaningless.

In the Toliara Palace
Giio looked fondly as his daughter Renelle sat smiling at Prince Menilik. Princess Menilik he corrected himself. At first he had been afraid of losing his little daughter, but now that he realised how happy she was he had done much to prepare for the celebration, the best Kohanes in Madagascar and Israel had been hired for the wedding, he alone had invited over six hundred patrons and his daughter had invited over a thousand, Giio’s head spun imagining how many Prince Menilik and his royal family invited. Currently the wedding was planned to take place in Israel, Giio had hundreds of royal galleys built lavishly built with gold trimming and intricate designs. 50 of his elite royal guard were to attend the wedding their armour made of pure gold, his own gift to the soon to be newly weds was a large palace built on one of the small coral islands to the east of Madagascar, as well as a sceptre crusted with diamonds and rubies, signifying Prince Menilik to be a Successor to the crown. Giio had never sent a dowry to Isreal however, assuming his aid in the battle against the Pashtuns would be enough. The marriage was the most important part of the ceremony, however Giio would be speaking to King Solomon about many issues, and the two nations would always fight to protect each other. Giio turned back towards the seamstress, and the beautiful dress Renelle was in, nodding his approval, the planner began to talk to him about the flowers...

King Solomon stared out to sea as the Malagasy ships made the final leg of the trip on water, entering Aqaba harbour in all the splender of Madagascar's riches. His son Prince Menilik and the Princess Renelle of Malagasy came off the ship with King Giio leading the way. Following them came the royal guard of Malagasy, followed by the royal servants, then all of the courtiers and other guests that had been brought from the south lands. King Solomon, and his favored wife, Sheba, greeted the southerners at the dock. They then proceeded to the caravan of camels and camel drawn carriages to make the journey from the southern port of Aqaba to Jerusalem, and the Holy Temple where the wedding would be performed by the Kohane Gadol himself with the help of the finest Kohanes from all over Israel and the Malagasy Empire.
********
"Dear friend, tell me what you think of Israel's lands so far? As I understand it, you have docked in every one of Israel's colonial ports for at least a week. Surely, you must have stories to tell." The Wise King spoke with the knowledge fo the ages. In his voice was a knowing tone, as if he knew exactly what the Southern King, as the Israelites know King Giio, would say.
"I must tell you Solomon," only the future father in law of the king's son could get away with that, "All of your cities were marvelous, but I must say, there was only one that has truly brought inspiration to me."
"And what would that be?" King Solomon, for once, was truly astonished. He had expected Giio to go on about the natural beauty of Male, the markets of Zanzibar and Caluula, and the synagogues of Mecca and Medina. Now, his majesty was intrigued like never before to find out which city had caused such awe for King Giio, when the others had not.
"While every port had its own culture, its own uniquness that shows that diversity and wonder of Israel, none of them caused me to be greatly astonished. They were all quite beautiful, don't get me wrong, but only one of them had that something."
"And which one would be that, my friend?"
"Aqaba, for when I saw the docks spread out before me, I knew that I had reached the Holy Land. I had reached that land which the Kohanes had taught me about. That land that was promised to the patriarchs. while the other cities had more culture, and more diversity, and more riches, none of them were in Eretz Yisroel."
Solomon smiled. He now knew that he had truly made a wise decision in this marriage. Here was a man with as much religious conviction as himself. A man who truly knew the Lord as his own, one who understood the Law and cherised Eretz Yisroel, the Land of Israel. His son would be marrying a daughter of good heart and soul, and be recieving a father in law of good conviction andmuch wisdom.
********
The caravan had finally reached Jerusalem. The bustling capital of Israel had only recovered from years of Afridis occupation in Israel rather recently, but already it was a thriving metropolis bustling with tradegoods flowing in from Tel-Aviv and Aqaba. There had been a recent population boom in the city as the descendents of what is now turmed the "diaspora" are returning to Israel. They have brought with them much wealth that was earned in other nations and new ideas that were developed deuring the time they were away.
Looming over this bustling city was the Temple of King Solomon, more commonly known as the Holy Temple, or evne just the Temple. Built with Lebanese cedar, Egyptian gold, Armenian gems, and many other treasures and luxuries, it is the pride andjoy of Israel. Many times it has been the site of weddings for the nobles of the tribes. But soon, it would be the site of much more. King Solomon's heir, Prince Menilik, would be married in the Temple to Princess Renelle of the Malagasy empire. The royal blood lines would be united and in this ceremony forever would Malagasy and Israel be united.
********
Menilik lifted the veil off of his wife's face. Soon they would be married. As Sheba wathced, she felt a tear begin to well up in her eye. She quickly got herself back under control. She was Solomon's queen for a reason, and that was her strength. There were many other wives that he could make his queen at any second, andyet he chose the foreigner who had tried to trick him. But watching her son be married, and to the daughter of the Southern King no less, was the greatest event in her life. Ever since her kingdom had fallen to the Yemenites, she had fought her way to the top through any means necessary. Now, even though she had lost her kingdom, her son would still be inheriting not one, but two. How cunning the Lord is. One day He takes everything away from you, but ifyou just persevere, he returns what he took away and more. This was the greatest day of her life, and soon, she would be indulging herself on cuisine from every corner of the known world while her son and knew daughter sat together at dinnerfor the first time as man and wife.
