Chancellor Bismarck Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Dear citizens, I come to you on account today of a coup that has occured in Pen Island. At approximately 5:00 PM Pen Island time (it's always 5:00 in Pen Island) a bloodless coup occured when the citizens of the capital (all male at this time, because of the round-up) became dissatisfied with the quality of the beer they were receiving while on the job. The leaders have subsequently been hung. Beer is a very important thing in Pen Island, and it is important for our leaders to realise this. Therefore, the people have acted, and we are working on establishing a new government that will provide BETTER beer for BETTER citizens. Sincerely, Magnum Pisspot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chancellor Bismarck Posted July 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 A slender man, wearing a black suit, black shirt, black pants, and no tie, with polished black shoes, goes up to a podium in central Powergen Italia, surrounded on either side by blue swaying curtains that shimmer like the ocean. He is young, in his mid-thirties, and has black hair and dark, brown eyes. He looks out over the crowd of people in front of him, and begins to speak... "Ladies and Gentlemen, For too long has our country been riddled by a misuse of education and an overdose of unethical and immoral behavior. For too long have we been misled by government leaders chosen not by intelligence or common sense, but based on muscle and good looks. I am here today to tell you that it ends this very hour. No longer shall our country be plunged in the darkness which consumes it, but it shall be brought out into the gleaming sunlight with the world standing before us. Education, standards, regulation, and discipline will return, and will remain once and for all. Starting now, I, Jonathan Sinclaire, take control of the government and this nation. All who oppose my leadership will be arrested and put forth to a summary trial and execution." Militia-like men emerge from all sides, armed with AK-47s, pistols on belts, and grenades around their mid-section. They point their arms at the people, in a threatening way. "I will lay down the laws of this country, and I will make it clean once more. The days of darkness shall never return. Once my task is done, the country will be in better shape than most in the world, and history will vindicate me." A man jeers up at the man in black, and says, "Who are you to make such a-"..... he is shot before he finishes his sentence by one of the armed men. "Thank you, and good day." The man walks off the podium, four armed men flanking him on each side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chancellor Bismarck Posted July 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 (edited) "Bavaria will gladly supply Pen Island with good and high-quality beer." A note from the desk of Jonathan Sinclair It reads... "Dear Leaders of Bavaria, The supply of alcoholic and otherwise intoxicating beverages is now reserved for a certain portion of the population, but is no longer produced en masse for the general one. We would gladly take a few cases at the latest market cost, however. Sincerely, Jonathan Sinclaire" Edited July 27, 2009 by Pacifism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pen Island would like to remind you that any sea within 50 miles of the coast is Pen Island territory, and that any violation will prompt military action. However, outside of that limit you are free to maintain whatever you like. We would also like to note that we no longer recognise the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church, and will respond to none of his comments or questions. An investigation is being launched to determine how he is getting his messages into Pen Island, if at all, and anyone assisting will be shot. OOC: You're thinking of invading me? I plan to use this RP so I have an excuse to make my country a serious one, instead of the previous joke I was RPing. Please allow me to do so.

King Kevz Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 (edited) Carrier launched Harrier aircraft are maintaining a combat air patrol over the waters to the north of Pen Island all vessels entering said area should immediatly turn around and leave the area or they will be at risk of being destroyed. For now though the Pax Pacis aircraft are maintaing position out of range of any modern air defesnes Pen Island has. One Harrier landing and another preparing to take off.

For now though the Pax Pacis aircraft are maintaing position out of range of any modern air defesnes Pen Island has. One Harrier landing and another preparing to take off. We would wonder as to what the meaning or justification of this embargo is. Until we see any justification I have no idea why the world would allow you to play World Police. I don't think they have been so kind to those that choose random acts of aggression in the past. We need only look at Europe to see this. Good luck if you should choose hostile action against any ship entering our waters, I don't think the world will look to kindly on it whatsoever, regardless of what this aggressive religious figure might say. OOC: What the hell? OOC2: Excuse me, I don't think my new dictator is very beer-addicted. I don't think I've role-played a beer addiction in any of my new government personnell. I hardly believe a transaction for alcoholic beverages for my nation labels them as alcoholic. I also don't appreciate your random incursions into my nation and the encouraging of war on my brand-new RP nation. Perhaps you would like to explain yourself in an OOC fashion?

We strongly recommend that Pax Pacis removes it's fleet from the waters of Pen Island and Selenarctos. I have yet to see Pen Island threaten your national security or do anything more than instate an absolutist government. While we do not agree with their form of government, we believe every nation has a right to sovereignty. You are infringing upon Pen Island's sovereignty. OOC: Quit playing Global Cop. OOC: C'mon man, the name of your country isn't even serious! And neither is the beer-addicted dictator! OOC: I'm sure his dictator can easily change the name. The Church requests that Selenarctos temporarily allow ships into its waters to fight for a just cause. We see no justification to fight. The worst that Pen Island's new government has done is withdrawn recognition of the Pope as the head of religious manners in their nation. Much like Henry VIII of England*. Please allow Pen Island a chance to work it's way into the world; it has only recently transitioned into the world of serious politics. OOC: *might be the wrong Henry.

Vedran Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 "Arctica challenges Pax Paxis' policy of pretending to be the world police. These are sovereign nations you have been threatening recently with your mentions of 'peacekeepers' and 'preventive measures'. I do not believe you have the moral integrity to actually create an international incident over something as simple as a cargo ship violating a silly, unjustified blockade.

Pax Pacis, we ask you to keep peace in Asia and stop trying to be the world police. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynneth Posted July 28, 2009 Report Share Posted July 28, 2009 A containership filled with some of the best beer available in Bavaria is making its way towards Pen Island. It is being escorted by two frigates in case of pirates. Should any nation stop this ship and do anything but a simple search of the container ship, we will consider it a declaration against Bavaria. Beer is not a matter about which we joke. This message should primarily concern Pax Pacis, who certainly have not been encouraging peace in the last weeks.
