  4. Joint Announcement from Nordreich and the Republic of Aquisgrana

    in Alliance Announcements (IC)

    Posted · Edited by Valdemar

    In the brief five months since the Republic of Aquisgrana published our Declaration of Existence, we have again and again been overwhelmed by the generosity of spirit that others have shown to us. Excepting our former protector, Nueva Vida, none has excelled in this regard as has Nordreich, who have been our allies and friends since our beginning.

    Nordreich never ceases to be an inspiration to us in their unfailing decency and good sense and their adamant refusal to let the past stand in the way of a better future for all. Leading by their sterling example, Nordreich has taught us what it means to be true comrades through everything.

    With no further ado, it is my profound honor to announce to you the

    TREATY OF NIDAROS.

    Considering the treaty web, and the fact that big wars with big names will inevitably draw in alliances who have no business being there, I'm fairly confident in saying this thing would have been global.

    You may be right, but on the other hand, don't people say that every time?

    The issue between STA and Kronos was pretty boring in my opinion. A war would be nice sooner or later, but personally I'd much rather it stem from something that is interesting.

    Hear, hear! Jack Diorno took the words out of my mouth.

    :D

    On behalf of the Republic of Aquisgrana, I thank everyone who has worked so hard to make this happen, especially our friends in Nueva Vida, 1 Touch Football, and the Grand Lodge of Freemasons.

    In addition, there is one person without whom none of this would have happened, our beautiful and charming Minister of Foreign Affairs, Elfriede Riotte (alias "nosoup4u"). She has my eternal gratitude for her infinite patience and absolutely unfailing skill at Foreign Affairs.

    We are grateful to Hizzy and Nelchael and all our friends in Nueva Vida (like karthking) for everything they have done for us, but above all, for their unflagging friendship and indispensable support for us from before we even existed.

    Thank you everyone. We are honored to be among such fine people.

    I am (for once), without words. This is a very sad day, indeed. :(

    I owe you a lot, and will always be grateful to you. You never failed to inspire TGE and, incidentally, make a heck of a great OWF post.

    As for RL, I have occasion to mention again one of my favorite quotes (not from the Maharishi, but close): "In oneself lies the whole world and if you know how to look and learn, the door is there and the key is in your hand. Nobody on earth can give you either the key or the door to open, except yourself."

    Best of luck to you in all things, and of course, you always know where to find me, my friend.
