[i]"If I may,"[/i] The Livlander diplomat started. [i]"Why don't we try a compromise for the UK and of England & Maine? I'm sure there is a middle ground where the two nations can meet, so to speak. Such as the Western UK giving England a presence near the SAS base, in return England can lower troops levels and stay away from the EoPI situation whilst the UK can have the floor with that issue."[/i] He states.
[i]"I realize this is not my place to intervene, but I do not see any other options that do not involved hostilities between your two great nations. We can not allow Europe to be engulfed in another war. We are all from the same people, we are all human, we all have security issues. But we must work together, and so far England and the UK are not so friendly anymore in this discussion. Please consider the proposal we have offered." [/i] -
"We will wait to see comment from the Germanic Union before accepting this compromise. We agree with the Austrian's comments. We can become a crucial part in the Zurich treaty."
OOC: I apologize, I didn't see Sarah's post before I posted my response. -
"Kind sir of the UK, I do believe it would be up to the Grand Duchy to defend one or more members of Zurich if we join. Mind you, we can and do look out for ourselves in this world. We are becoming a powerful nation in eastern Europe and would be of great asset to Zurich in uniting Europe. We have no problem defending those we are allied to, be it we see combat in a day of allying or never, they are nothing less than an ally of which we will defend shall it come to such a case. However, diplomacy does not always win.
To sum up, Livonia does not see the reason why a no vote would be ample from the UK. The matter of our will can not be gauged by other parties who are unaligned to us. We politely ask that the UK change their vote to yes, so we may further help in uniting Europe and preventing was between the nations of Europe. Four nations can not speak for a continent of more than 7 grand nations." -
"This move is illegal, so far as we can see. We will retain further comment until the UK responds."

[b]*CLASSIFIED NEWS*[/b]
As the Generals approach the main military air base, they are asked to sit in the helicopter waiting for them...
[b][i]"Gentlemen, I am the Secretary of War and Defense of Livonia, Aldona Georgs. We very much do appreciate your appearance and help. However, we ask you take these blind folds and put them on while we travel to the base. It's location is top secret, and we may not reveal it to the public, or other nations for that matter. Since Germany is an Allie of ours, and we respect the nation and yourselves, we must protect the security of the nation, as Germany would be liable to release such information through the articles of their treaties. We hope you understand." [/i][/b]
She passes them the blindfolds and they take off. 15 minutes later, they arrive at a unknown location that is under construction and they take the blindfolds off. To the west and north, unfinished war factories. The south, a huge security gate with barbed wire, electric fence, 50ft concrete walls, all of which are still being completed, and guards everywhere armed to the teeth. To the east lies a huge warehouse, with a large opening, along with a small, one door entrance to what seems nowhere. The woman stands with the generals in the back of the copter, she asks them to follow her. Three guards appear behind the officers, they salute the woman.
[b][i]"Mr. Lehner and van Basten, these are your body guards. We expect no one to try anything stupid, however, we do still have rebels running around the nation and we have a few reformed in the army." [/i][/b]
The Generals and woman walk into the warehouse where a table has multiple things. She passes them each a pistol, handcuffs, pepper spray, baton, and other items.
[b][i]"These are for you, gentlemen. Use them for protection."[/i][/b]
She then has them follow her into the door to nowhere. They descend stairs, one after another, until they reach the bottom. They walk a hallway, she puts a pin into the door keypad. It opens, they follow another hallway for 100 yards, seeming to never end. They arrive at the end, to climb stairs to the top, where they open a door and find themselves in a wide open field paved with cement and a small stage up around 20ft. The field itself is over three football fields in diameter, with warehouses on every side. One, an Olympic pool is being built. Another, a two story gym. The upper floors contain shooting ranges. To the front, one four story warehouse, filled with obstacles and barriers. Another building in front of them states "Slop Hall", where all the food is served. It is on three stories. To the right, a six story building for bunking with a path leading to a two story, brand luxury house fit for a king. They walk into this fancy house. No end could be found in this place[The Base], where it seemed to be in the middle of nowhere.
[b][i]"Gentlemen, this will be your cabin. You have a room on the top floor, separate shows, bed rooms, etc. You will be restocked every morning when you leave to work." [/i][/b]
She takes a pause, they leave and go back to the giant field. She stands in front of the generals.
[b][i]"This is your drill pad, use it wisely. Drill your men, practice them. We need at very least half of these men battle ready in 3 months tops, we have professionals in each district to work under you. Train them well, and your pay check will be grander than any number you have ever seen in your life time. We will write letter for each of you for your nation, sending reports. They will be mighty proud of your work. You have phones in your house, with direct lines to Lord Martens, your family members, our President, etc. Unlimited time, take as long as you need while on break and quitin' time. There are over 15,000 men here, you will have fun."[/i][/b]
She walks back toward the door to nowhere, which is pad locked with a key, number, password, and voice identification. She turns to the men.
[b]
[i]"We expect nothing but the best from you. Shall you have any requests at all, dial my number."[/i]
[/b]
She salutes the men, then entering the door and disappears.

[b]*PRIVATE TO LORD MARTENS*[/b]
Dear Lord Martens,
We have received the men you sent. They are in our secure training base and have access to your number, as do you to them. They have the best of accommodations in our King Suite, where they will live. They should check in with you rather soon.
Again, we thank you, your Majesty, for allowing us to borrow the best of the best from your army to train the new Livlander Army.
Salute,
Secretary of War and Defense, Aldona Georgs

Vice President, Basia Augustyn
Secretary of State, Bendek Kaz
Secretary of Foreign Affairs, Septimus Nikolajs
Secretary of War and Defense, Aldona Georgs
Secretary of Internal, Pinja Brigita[/b]
[i]Pictures and other lower level government are listed on our website. This is LNN, signing off.[/i]
OOC: The names don't give much hint of gender, but War and Defense is a woman as is Internal Affairs and the VP. I'll make up new people for lower level guys. -
"The Grand Duchy of Livonia would like to apply to the Zurich Treaty. We are a protectorate of Germany and feel we may be a benefit this treaty."
Was the statement made to the Zurich partners by the Livlander Elected President, Juris Kristaps. -
As soon as these blue prints were received they were rushed to the scientists in Danborg and made copies of, sent off personally by multiple armed guards to the factories. Material would be sent to these factories, with the missile technology being the first in use. Thousands upon thousands of these missiles are being made, they will be stock piled in, soon to be finished, bunkers under the factories.
Bunkers were the new fad in Livonia, they are being built all over in the major cities with populations over 1.5 million people. Depending on the city, the size would increase or decrease. Use of German technology would be used to built these amazing underworlds. They were to be built heavy duty in major cities, other, smaller cities would be less reinforced.
For the Naval Ships, Riga would be the home. Riga is a major and important port city. The docks and sea floor would be dug out for these massive ships, upgrades would continue in Livonia ports to better improve these ships of war. All mounted guns are to be replaced with new, fresh from the factory weapons. Engines would be replaced if below par. All keels would be reinforced with steel, the stem would get a large piece of steel to act as a plow in icy waters. After being armed, the ships will do test runs for all the new improvements.
Troops would be equipped with these new weapons and armor, they will test all equipment in training. The Armed Forces of Livonia are to be trained on a 12 hour day, through fierce gun fire and simulated warfare. New tanks were used in formation with The Armed Forces, shooting cardboard enemies. It was asked of Germany to send officers to train the Livlander army.
As the new Aircraft landed, the old ones would be decommissioned and sent off for scrap or sent off to museums through out the nation. New ones would also be produced and sent into stockpile, spare parts would be key in production. Dog fight scenarios would be used to train pilots in their new aircraft, along with daily test flights.
[i]Good day, Livlanders. This is LNN bringing you the newest news, new. With the unemployment rate down to 5.2%, the Livonia government has begun work on factories. They are transforming old, abandoned, partially burnt down and worn and torn warehouses and old era factories, turning them into brand new factories to produce war material. Multiple factories exist as is now, they are changing production over to war material as well as producing spare/replaceable parts, missile production, food, shelter material, and what ever else needed. The government expects to have the unemployment rate of 5.2% down to a mere 1.3% by the beginning of next month, when most of the factories will be up and running. To apply, call your local City Borough's Office. This is LNN, signing off.

"Very well. They will be found, eventually. We understand that they surely have been in the military after analyzing the attacks. Therefore, we have found several suspects in our database, where the word "suspects" is used only to stick to the legal technicalities. We will sweep the land 'till we find them, then we shall put them to trial. I would suggest that you confiscate their propierty in the meantime to prevent them from thriving."
[/quote]
[b]Classified response[/b]
"We will not confiscate the property, it would be against the rights and freedoms of the citizens. We will; however, keep police on their property so if they may return, we shall catch them and arrest them. In the process, handing them over to Germany for prosecution of the former law over the land. Would that suit you, Lord Martens?"
At this time, every day there would be a 24-7 undercover patrol of the regions surrounding the homes. The neighborhoods would be alerted to watch for items belonging to these criminals; they would soon be caught. -
"We are back live, at the debate with the LADOT where they have made a decision on the contracts that will pay for this massive. We now go inside to where we will ehar the LADOT President speak." Bendiks Misa.
"After hours of debate with the companies of the German Union and Livonian, we have come to a resolution. We will award 8 contracts to Shell and their associates. These contracts include over 20 miles of the new highway per, allowing for multiple stations at multiple exits and stops." Said LADOT President in the meeting with the companies. "Along with these contracts, there will be a total of 24 others awarded to other small station from Germany and Livonia. 553 contracts are awarded to restaurants at these stops, including 3 malls just off the highway on government property." He would continue. "We would like to thank all in attendance and wish them luck with their new contracts. LADOT looks forward to working with each and every one of you for a mutual benefit of the people, LADOT, and your business. Thank you." The President takes his leave with his staff, dismissing the representatives.
OOC: This will be paying for it, yay... -

[i]Reporter Bendiks Misa stands outside LADOT office in Danborg, Livonia.[/i]
Good Evening, I am Bendiks Misa standing just outside the LADOT office in Danborg. Just minutes ago, the nation's leaders have announced an unprecedented project. There will be one four-lane highway, connecting the nation in a circular shape along the borders of Livonia. Along with other this, other highways will be placed connecting the borders with the center of the nation, and it's capitol, Danborg. The goal of this project is to modernize Livonia's infrastructure. These highways will be four lanes on each, north and south bound, in major areas with 2 lanes each for other regions. This project will also connect the islands with the mainland for easier travel and additional development. These roads will be built to be able to carry heavy military artillery and jet, private, and military airliners.
The details are being hammered out as we speak, they are trying to settle contracts with large gas stations in Livonia, Germany, Austria, etc. All interested parties are currently arriving to speak with LADOT. We are told the highest bidder will be the winner. They are looking for hundreds of stations along this new super highway and are aiming for 3-6 contracts for development. Along with these stations, there will be rest stops, restaurants, and in some areas, malls.
The project is expected to take around 5 years to complete, local and foreign companies are also being employed to pave the massive highway. The cost of the project is well in the billions, no final number has been conformed as of yet. When we receive more information we will pass that along to you, until then, this is Bendiks Misa signing off. Back to you in the office.
OOC: If you guys wanna stake a bid, please just show up to the meeting in a reply to this thread and you will be included. If you'd like for an even larger RP, such as a massive highway to connect our two nations, then do the same in a reply.
...Meanwhile...
Men and women are heading into the office, the LADOT President has been seen heading into the building with his security. Other would arrive soon. -
[b]*Private to Martens*[/b]

Location... Danborg, Formerly. Border of Estonia and Latvia.
Situation... Uprising of the Baltic States'.
In a Danborg underground bar, hundreds of feet below the main floor, a man walks. Dressed in a fancy waiter's outfit, he carries glasses of luxurious alcoholic beverages for the filthy rich, not many in this region can afford this. There's groups of people in the hundreds, cheering and chatting. Clanking glasses and the sound of drunks. A very well known man, leader of the underground Baltic gang, known as the Baltic Killers, was on the stage giving a speech. He is known as Ludvigs Rihards, the man of Power, Fame, and Underground War. He is very rich, he robs banks who don't support his 'Trust Fund' as he calls them. [i]"...And today begins the uprising of the Baltic peoples!"[/i] was the shout coming from the man on the stage, roars quickly follow. Four or more armed men with M16's appear on stage, dragging the Germanic city mayor, who is blind folded by a black bag, and tied around the feet and arms with rope. Ten others follow suit, dragging three more men; the Germanic members of the city council. They line all of them up on the front of the stage on their knees, still bound. The armed men stand behind each of the Germanic Law makers, while two stand on the sides of the men, preventing them from trying to escape. The crowd gathers around the stage, trying to get closer and closer, some backing away knowing what will happen. They become quiet, not a single voice is heard for the next thirty seconds and the armed men quietly load their guns. There is a drop of wine in a glass by a lady as there are multiple gun shots, no known amount was recorded, but sounding in the 20's. The men fall to the ground, bleeding and lying in pools of blood. All four members of the City Council are dead, and no one but those in attendance, strictly limited to those in the gang and uprising against the oppression, knew of these happenings. And in other cities, such as Reval, Formerly Talinn, and Riege, Formerly Riga, this event was happening on the same scale. With members of the Baltic Killers in underground bars killing as many city officials as they could gather. There was Germanic blood all over the land of the Baltic people. Ludvigs Rihards begins to shout over the people in attendance, "The Revolution has Begun! And there is NOTHING ANYONE can do to stop it!" He yells.

"I am very glad we could come to the agreement, Lord Martens." Juris Kristaps says, shaking the hand of Lord Martens. "Our two nations living in harmony is a great feat in and of itself. The Germanic Union and The Grand Duchy of Livonia will stand together for times to come, and no one will break our bond." It snaps to black and white, freezing a shot of Juris and Martens shaking hands, facing the other, in a photo to be remembered...

A man walks to the stage, he is none other than Juris Kristaps, the elected President of the new nation. He is accompanied by armed guards and other elected officials. He puts papers down and waves to the people in attendance. There is cheering, confetti flying, music playing. The people become silent as he begins his speech.
"Greetings, people of Danborg. We, The Grand Duchy of Livonia, have achieved our goal. We have been granted independence by Germany!" Cheering ensues. He hushes them, they begin to stop after minutes of cheering. "We would like to give our most graceful thanks to Germany, and Lord Martens in particular. Without him and his great nation, we would not stand here today, united and under our own rule. To Germany! Our protector, our Allie, our friend, our mentor. Thank you, Livonia! Enjoy your day." He walks off the stage with his entourage, getting into a limo and headed for the new capitol building in Danborg to begin his work. He would then make an announcement to the other nations of Europe, Asia, North America, and the rest of the world that Livonia is seeking relations with friendly nations, and would invite them to inquire with the new government about relations.

"I am glad to meet a representative of another prosperous European nation. We thank you for your help with the extremists, it went very smooth and worked out well. Cooperation of Europe is something España seeks, our lands around us being held captive by non-natives is embarrassing, but so long as they are European we have no objections. But that's beside the point, we do indeed have Sangría. We would not be España if we did not." nodding back, he brings a kitchen server to his side and asks for the finest of Sangría that we have to offer. She comes back and hands Mr. Martens and Mr. Cowell the drink.
"So it seems you have interest in España. What is it you are proposing sir?" He says, then taking a sip of the drink. -
As the embassy has the finishing touches added to it and a bow waiting to be cut, Martens arrives in Madrid, España with his diplomatic team taking up the embassy. When Martens makes it to the palace, he is personally greeted by Julio Cowell, Presidente de la España, while his permanent diplomatic team is taken to the embassy for the ribbon cutting ceremony with Ezequiel José and Mayor of Madrid.
"It is so great to finally meet you Mr. Martens. How are you? I would like to welcome to the prosperous nation of España! Come in, after that flight we are sure you could use some movement and a beverage while we talk over your visit." Mr. Cowell said, shaking hands with the Triumvirate member. They walk into a big ball room to the office where they will talk. Mr. Cowell has a secretary get a few beverages for Mr. Martens and his team while they small talk.
