"America annexed Greenland. Yourselves in the Union even have claims on non connecting borders. I can't wait to hear your oh so insightful justification for this one." "Once again, you avoid the question. Perhaps instead averting PR fire away from yourself in my direction, you face up to your contradictions for once. And that wasn't just directed at you." OOC: For clarification since this is bound to pop up soon enough, me and Drake have agreed to just assume Krypton was decommissioned or destroyed... whatever really. It isn't operational anymore.

OOC: Okay, my bad. But no, the photos were simply of dead bodies, as you asked. What he said.

"So who are you to decide the universal rules of annexation? Ironic really, considering your nation consists of dozens of unconnected islands."

OOC: He saw photos of dead bodies. Nothing more. So there is no way he would get to that conclusion. He cannot say they are forged, because they are not. Those men really did die, and they were suddenly attacked and murdered. All I am doing is RPing the events in my nation perfectly legally. I await your cunning reply. "So that makes it okay to invade?!"

"The Middle East is in Asia. Central America in North America. Look it up." OOC: He is RPing them by suggesting the 'evidence' I sent him (which was only photos of dead people, so how on Earth he came to that conclusion I don't know) proves I am lying, which I am not, because it is my nation, my troops, and I shall RP them as I please.

"If Kuwait stands down, leaves Africa, as shall we, and we can negotiate a peace. Until then, we shall not sit back while our men are walked over by imperialistic savages."

OOC: Kuwait invaded, I RPed my losses. Please, enlighten me as to where I have gone wrong.

"Yet he, an Asian nation, is allowed to have claims there? No. When he leaves, I leave." OOC: No. Stop RPing my troops.

"Despite how disgusting I find it that you wish to now see a damn picture of these poor people, if that is what it will take to convince you, so be it." A telegram containing numerous images was delivered to the Australia government. "We issued a just ultimatum that would benefit Africa, and is fair (we would have left too), and the response we received was an invasion. We are the aggressor? That's just a severe lack of common sense, nearly as stupid as suggesting the murderer is the victim."

OOC: I did say so in the speech, otherwise... IC: "Military officials in the region have so far confirmed that at least 13,060 soldiers have been murdered on the front, including over 30,000 casualties. The numbers however continue to grow with every second that passes."

This is ERP, not CNRP. "We have targetted a city right outside the Indian border. Of course there will be military there." OOC: There we little fortifications, but I moved troops to the borders immediately (obviously, because I was capturing the regions, thus troops enter and expand outwards until they reach the border of what they are annexing).

OOC: He invaded my African territory, and thus I am RPing the losses. So yes, he killed thousands of innocent men who were taken completely by surprise.

I used a nuclear weapon for a damn good reason. The city itself was mere miles from the Indian border, and if there is no military there then invading them would be easier than I anticipated. As for the amount of people killed, it was a sparsely populated city. The Emirate killed THOUSANDS of our innocent men for an unjust cause. I believe the saying is; an eye for an eye.

"We did not bring war to them, they brought it upon us."

*Classified* British armies across the world are put on full alert and are fully mobilised. All SDI facilities online, Indian territorial and reserve forces online, the full comprehensive UK home force is also ready. Raid shelters were dug many months ago, as with gas mask distribution, heavy propaganda campaigns and military recruitment. These programs continue to grow rapidly.

Delivered on BBC World News, broadcast to the globe; Breaking news just in, we are receiving unconfirmed reports that Kuwaiti Emirate troops have invaded British African Territory... we can now go live to Buckingham Castle where the King is delivering a press conference... "Ladies and Gentlemen, good evening. Less than 12 hours ago, I received confirmation from military officials that British territory has succumbed to invasion from a pathetic force controlled by the Kuwaiti Emirate. This unjust and unnecessary massacre was conducted brutally, many men have died over the past day. After a short meeting with my government ministers, the conclusion was obvious. We have no choice but to recognise a state of war with the Kuwaiti Emirate." The audience applauded. "Necessary precautions have been made. Thankfully, we have completed foritifcations along the border prior to this attack, so we are not heavily unprepared. Our forces world wide were mobilised weeks ago, so we are ready to respond to this attack. However thing that you, the people of the world will notice quite prominently relatively soon. In retaliation, the British have literally within the past few minutes launched a successful nuclear attack via aeroplane on a small city 11 miles from the Kuwait-Indian border. The warhead used caused mass devastation however the damages of which are currently unclear. What is good news for us is, the weapon used was minor, compared to the rest of our arsenal. This only further demonstrates the power we possess. Many of you may be concerned that they will respond the same, as may many other nations on this planet. But don't fret. I can assure you, your government will be protecting you from these savages. In the meantime, our forces shall continue to defend against the weak and pitiful assault landed by the Emirate. As for the nuclear attack, it was intended to deliver a very simple message - what we are really capable of. We demand the unconditional surrender of Kuwait and any of their allies who may join the battle, including the withdrawal of all forces and a complete ceasefire, otherwise a full invasion of the Emirate mainland will commence, and the Empire shall launch nuclear warheads at every major city of the countries involved. You have been warned. You have 30 days to comply. (OOC: 48 hours) Thank you, that will be all." The transmission cut to a satellite link live from the small city in question, demonstrating the sheer devastation caused. OOC: Just to summarise, I have recognised a state of war with the Emirate, will continue to push them back away from Africa, launched a nuclear warhead at a small city on the Indian border to demonstrate our power, and threaten to use them on every major city and launch a full invasion unless Kuwait surrenders. For now, no troops are invading the territory, merely mobilising and forcing any invaders back with our comprehensive defence. Have fun.

"Never mind, it appears I've brought a draft with me." Signed for the British Empire, King Howard GBE UK Head of State Emperor of the British Empire

So I've been invaded? Heh, okay. Have fun with that.

OOC: Yeah, you got through already, so don't think I'm meta-gaming or anything. IC: "We are willing to search trading vessels, however we will not accept any form of military equipment or weaponry to be passed through."

*Classfied* "We never thought to monitor the waterways, did we?" "Damn. They're probably transporting all kinds of equipment between each other. Let's draw something up..." *Public* The Indian fleet based in Sri Lanka has now established a blockade across the Indian Ocean. No vessels may pass into or out of the Emirate as sanction for refusing to vacate Africa. Any ships attempting to 'sneak' beyond our vision will be brought down immediately. All have been warned, so we will not recognise any blame on our halves if such actions are committed.

"Excellent. Do you happen to have a blank draft of the treaty in question?"

I would probably say Mutual Defence, at the least. That and the obvious economic and political co-operation. What are your views on this?

"Well, even though you invited me... [OOC][/OOC] I believe we both know why we are here. Our Empires have been close for many months now, and considering the global situation at present, I feel we need to get drafting a treaty immediately, if we intend to remain organised throughout the coming months."

I would like to reiterate my use of the word 'stubborn'.
