Business-In-Exile


Generalissimo

Recommended Posts

Procinctia’s international corporations are following the example of Procinctia Publishing Press and are independently raising funds necessary to advocate Procinctia’s liberation from Northern Imperium’s unjust occupation of the country.

Procinctia’s business community will continue trading in whatever countries tolerate our (continued) presence.

Due to desperate times AT&T needs liquidate miles of telegraph for quick cash.
At $10 a mile can you really afford not to purchase a telegraph network?

All telegraph-internet interface research[quote name='Generalissimo' timestamp='1314909615' post='2792446']Aleutian Telegraph and Telecom is researching how to transfer telegraphs to popular Internet blogging sites.

The current project utilizes technologies similar to the TeletypeWriter eXchange data transmitted through telegraphs decoded to ASCII code - this ASCII code will be run through a vintage VAX computer – information from the VAX will be transferred to a commercial laptop – and from the laptop the text will be posted.[/quote]That’s right, telegraph-internet interface! Australia will own all of these devices.

"Does Procintian business have something more advanced than telegraphic cables? We stopped using telegraphs decades ago and have vaulted all the way to fiber optic cables. Either way, there is possible space in Legion for business opportunities. We have one current special economic zone and one future one in the making. We also have a fairly decent amount of venture capital available for start up companies if you have a solid enough business plan."

- Chancellor Congo[/quote]Procinctia Publishing Press, even in exile, is ridiculously profitable.
Printing was more than half of Procinctia’s economy prior to the invasion.
While the intent of your offer is respected it was an unrealistic bid for this company.
No offense was intended.

Procinctia Armament is selling two thousand of the legendary/infamous Procinctia Sedan Combat Technicals.
Even before Northern Imperium’s invasion Procinctia was running out of wrecked sedans to turn into somewhat workable battlewagons.
Unless a new supply of bombed-out family cars can be found these will be the last Procinctia Sedan Combat Technicals ever produced.[quote name='Generalissimo' timestamp='1286910537' post='2482693']Procinctia Armament is now selling Procinctia Sedan Combat Technical to foreign markets

The Procinctia Sedan Combat Technical is available for foreign export for $560.
Built with Procinctia’s highly developed Schizo Tech from Bering Wars era leftovers scavenged from multiple wastelands, this sedan combat technical was designed specifically for post apocalyptic warfare and has been tested in the unforgiving rigors of the Saint Paul City Wasteland.

[b]Procinctia Sedan Combat Technical Specifications[/b]
[i]Crew:[/i] Two, with capacity for two additional
[i]Speed:[/i] 11-13 mph armed, 33-37 mph disarmed
[i]Armor:[/i] Wielded pieces of scrap metal
[i]Armament:[/i] 50-mm anti-tank gun
[i]Advantages:[/i] cheapest infantry vehicle on the market, reliable performance, requires little service, thoroughly expendable
[i]Disadvantages:[/i] negligible Armor, poor gas mileage, relatively slow, aiming requires pointing the entire car at a target

[i]Additional Unintended Utility:[/i] Procinctia Sedan Combat Technical is the cheapest motorized vehicle, civilian or otherwise, on the market today, making it a cheaper alternative to more conventional personal automobiles
Procinctia Sedan Combat Technical is also significantly less expensive than most country’s mobile targets, making it an excellent platform for military mobile gunnery training

Upon receiving news of the availability of these Procinctia Sedan Combat Technicals the curiosity of many Commonwealth citizens were peaked. Soon over 200 orders would be made to purchase such a vehicle by a variety of consumers including collectors, historians, conspiracy theorists, war reenactors, people who really needed a cheap car as well as hardcore Mad Max fans.

If the testing crew dies the machine is re-scrapped.

Little known fact: Procinctia Sedan Combat Technicals are internally reinforced, doesn't matter what they look like internally

The Northern Imperium announces the foreclosure of all former Procinctian properties, tax records obtained from the former government seat showing that many of them were well over the limit of claimable bankruptcies. Hereby, Procinctia Armament and Aleutian Telegraph and Telecom are now subsidiary companies of Bethel Armory and Alaskan Wireless, respectively.

How can Aleutian Telegraph and Telecom be bankrupt when the corporation was sold to Communist Australia for 100 million shekels of silver?
100 million shekels of silver is a considerable investment!

Corporation Taken Over
In a shocking move by the Socialist People's Republic of Australia, Field Marshall John C. Flemming has ordered the purchase of the Procinctian Corporation, Aleutian Telegraph and Telephone. The corporation will handle all the telecommunications for the Australian nation.[/quote]Aleutian Telegraph and Telecom now handles all telecommunications for the Australian nation – astounding success!

It’s a well-known fact that Procinctia’s previous three governments didn’t have actually seat. . . or keep coherent records.

Bankruptcy?
Procinctia’s business-community-in-exile continues to flourish.
Look at the last few days of trading, we’re doing great.
More importantly our finances are secure elsewhere.
