Introduction of Carthage


The AUT

Recommended Posts

When I came back to Cyber Nations I had a couple of ideas in terms of new alliances. The two that really stuck, for me, was both Soldier and Carthage. If I leave CN, if I ever do, I want to expend every last idea and thought into it so I can leave in peace. Starting from Plan A with Soldier to Plan Z with Carthage. (Don't ask about the other letters I didn't count them.)

I'd like to thank all those who encouraged me to take up this endeavor. For Zenith and TFD and the rest of the Peace and Love Train for protecting me. For TPF for encouraging me and the rest of my friends who've supported me, thank you. I'd especially like to thank Fireguy for his continued help regarding my forums. You're a great friend and your help will not go unrewarded.

And no, this is not a declaration of war on all Roman themed alliances. :P

So, without anymore time to waste I bring to you the

"Last night, the crying of the children kept me awake and I had a terrible vision. I saw the fall of our city. Breached bones under a harsh sun, Carthage- gone! Why would Baal send such a vision? He is not cruel, he has watched over us. We have had victories aplenty in war. Our merchants sail to all corners of the world. And yet now, I fear, I cannot help it. We are the envy of lesser people, they tell terrible lies about us! They do not understand so they lie! But the Romans.. they are the masters of falsehood. War will come, I am sure of it. So, I will have no more false visions. And, I think, the children will be quiet tonight..."

If they encounter problems within or outside the alliance they are encouraged to talk with The Republic to help settle any disputes. The membership’s responsibility is to have fun and grow while The Republic serves their needs.

Times of War

Carthage is based on a mandatory military. Those who do not wish to fight are asked to become bank nations. Those who desert are subject to punishment. Disobeying orders may also be punished.

Amendments

Carthage holds the right to amend the charter at any time to meet the needs of the alliance, and not the other way around.

OOC: Sweet theme for an alliance! If you haven't read Pride of Carthage you need to - whether you are in this alliance or not. One of my favorite books I've ever read.

IC: Good luck!

[OOC] I'm going to check the university's library definitely interested in reading it and discussing it with you. [/OOC]

I don't need the Force as my ally to see where this is going to end.

It's such a shame someone such as yourself needs imaginary "forces" to help you foretell the future. Unlike Rome, Carthage was built in a day. ;)

Everyone else, thank you for all the well wishes. I hope I can make this alliance succeed, at the very least I won't give up. Even if it's a two man AA or a larger one.
