[quote name='kitex' timestamp='1285813624' post='2469102'] A Blue Heaven Herald reporter arrived and asked "What do you think about the current instability in North America and how will your defense and foreign policy reflect that? Also what do you think of your Arctic neighbors?" [/quote] [color="#4169E1"]"Well. I think we need to all work together to make peace and stability in North America. This continent has some of the most beautiful land and strongest people on the planet. Let's keep it that way. Obviously, we have a large defense budget, and a high security budget as you all know, but I don't plan on having a huge offensive military budget. I don't plan on making MDP with every single nation around me, but I will most surly become close friends with stable nations, and we will send supplies to nations in need of it. And Artica... I have always admired you nations name. Although it is simple, it is bold and strong. The Herald is also something I read with my morning coffee on occasions." [/color]

[quote name='Triyun' timestamp='1285813312' post='2469097'] We advise you to retract your threats against our nation. -Spokesman for the Ministry of Political Satire [/quote] [color="#4169E1"]"I am sorry if you took that as a threat Mr. Minister. I was merely giving an example. You are not seen as a threat to my Queendom, but we do admire your strength and your global power abilities." [/color]

[quote name='Pikachurin' timestamp='1285811912' post='2469079'] Foreign Minister Lilian Meridian, who heard about the Water-Blues' unusually draconian security measures, would send Deputy Minister Wallace Muddkip to the conference in her place. After going through the checkpoints, where he had to embarrassingly go through numerous scanners, take off his boots, cloak and coat, he finally got to the ballroom. He waited for the Queen to answer the other inquirers, and would begin to ask his questions once he got his turn. "G-g-good evening, Your Majesty. First off, I must say you look quite dashing tonight, if I do say so myself. Anyways, I wish to ask a few questions about your new nations. First off, why did you name your nation 'Blue Water', and not Manitoba, its original name? Secondly, what are your opinions on your neighboring nations, and the nations across Hudson Bay? Do you plan on extending relations with them?" [/quote] [color="#4169E1"]"Well thank you Deputy." the Queen had a light red blush on her cheeks and then answered the questions, "I named my nation The Queendom of Blue Water because I think we need a new start. Let's forget the past, except for our heritage of course, and move into the future. Plus, this is what Blue Water is. We have so many lakes and rivers it is not even funny." the Queen thought for a moment and then replied in a softer voice to the Deputy, "We should speak during the supper after our talks here." She then finished his second question off, "I would love to expand nations around me and across the bay. Maybe even with the colony of France. Right now we are all about making friends. As long as my neighbors do not have terrible violations of human rights, like slavery of servitude, I am sure we can all be friendly." [/color]

[quote name='Vedran' timestamp='1285812586' post='2469086'] The young Arctican journalist, a new addition to Arctica News Service's "traveling reporters," which mainly attended foreign press conferences, attended this particular press conference, somewhat alarmed at the high level of security at the palace. She could not imagine the reasoning behind such strong defenses for such a new, insignificant nation. Had they already given someone a reason to harm them? Annette went through the screening, obediently but nervously. She knew the security procedures reporters had to go through, but this was her first press conference. Once she got through to the main area and it was time to begin, she joined the crowd of reporters competing for questions. "Arctica News Service; Queen Eve, please describe your nation's system of government. Also, what sort of foreign policy do you plan to implement?" [/quote] [color="#4169E1"]The Queen looked around at the armed guards in the room. "I apologize everyone. It looks like I am about to have you all lined up and shot. I think that is a terrible first impression." she signaled the guards to exit the room and they all did. She saw the faces of the diplomats and reporters get a little more relaxed. She then heard the request of the Artica News Service woman, "My nations system of government is a Absolute Monarchy. I, the Monarch, have almost absolute power within my borders. I appoint a group of ministers witch advise me on situations and also make their own decisions. Then there is also an elected Council of men and women who pass proposals and ask the I, the Queen, to sign them. If I do, they can become law, if I don't then the bill dies. I can also make Royal Decrees witch will go into law immediately, although I must give my citizens a one week warning. There is also local governments witch consists of city councils and mayors. No regional, or province governors, exist. We are one nation united, not one nation divided. For your foreign policy question... I will put it this way. This is a nation of peace, or at least I will try to keep it. Does that mean my Queendom will be neutral in everything? Absolutely not. If there is a war in Asia or Africa or Antarctica I will most likely not be involved because that is not any of my buisness. If a radical leader starts crushing nations around me, then that is a very big problem and I will help defend and liberate my fellow neighbors. But right now, Blue Water is trying to make friends, not enemies." [/color]

[quote name='Shatner' timestamp='1285811893' post='2469078'] "What is the Queendom's opinion on strict immigration laws such as those of the NPC?" [/quote] [color="#4169E1"]"Well... I think it is the right of any nation to choose if they wish immigrants coming into their nation or not. I think that is common sense. So, I think it is okay if you do not allow immigration. However, I think emigration, allowing people to move out of your nation, should be allowed indefinitely. Does Blue Water allow immigration as of now? No. Does it allow emigration as of now? Yes. If we wouldn't allow emigration then I think it is like holding my people hostage." [/color]

[quote name='Zoot Zoot' timestamp='1285811516' post='2469074'] What is the Queendoms view on the ongoing illegal occupation of Britain by American Colonists? [/quote] [color="#4169E1"]"A nice question" the Queen said with a smile "A nice difficult question. See I have a view called, 'Work where you belong.' If The Kingdom of Ireland was invaded, I would not feel obliged to go help. First, because I have no treaty with them, and secondly because my buisness and work should be done in North America. I believe that nations should not try to invade or harm other nations militarily if they are both on other sides of the world unless it is some mad superpower mass murdering and taking over innocent nations. So to simply answer your question, it is not my buisness if any nation is colonizing the British Isles. Although I can tell you I do not think Blue Water will ever do anything like that." [/color]

[quote name='Markus Wilding' timestamp='1285811129' post='2469063'] "Lisbon is wondering if Portuguese citizens will be allowed free access and immigration rights to Blue Water." [/quote] [color="#4169E1"]Eve looked over to the man, "Because our nation is very new into existence right now, we only have our basic laws down as of now. So technically, immigration is not legal as of now although emigration is. Thank you for your question." [/color]

Her aqua high-heals she had on perfectly matched her beautiful aqua dress. Her diamond crown shinned in the bright lights of the room like a thousand starts in the night sky. She was perfect tonight. She knew she was. Her makeup was flawless, her hair had been worked on for hours, and made sure that she would show off her hands to show that she did not have a wetting band on. She was in a beautifully decorated room and every safety precaution was taken. Outside, armed guards stood firm as snow gently fell around them, at every exit, a few on the roof, and two snipers on every corner of the roof; a spotter and the shooter (although they were both armed). All exits had two armed men on the outside and the inside of the doors guarding them. The doors are 5 inch thick solid steal, reinforced, bullet proof doors. Anyway, once a guest enters the room they would get to the first checkpoint. They would have to empty their pockets, take off their shoes, and take of a jacket if they were wearing one. They would be frisked by a man, if they were a man, or be frisked by a woman, if they were a woman. Then they were given back the possessions if they weren't considered dangerous of course. The next checkpoint would be a hand-held medal detector by two different guards. Finally, the third checkpoint would be a full body scanner. They would have to be scanned twice before they were let in to the ball room. The ball room was especially fit for the occasion. Besides the multiple security cameras hidden in the room and the guards posted in the corners, told to keep a low profile, the room was gorgeous. All the blue/aqua colors; all of the well dressed guessed. Everything was perfect. Queen Even then stood to great her guests, "Ladies and gentlemen. Thank you all for coming today. I am so happy you could all come and I apologize for the security checkpoints on the way in but my security adviser is very strict. Before we begin our talks of politics, I would like to say you will all have the pleasure of being able to eat supper with I and a few of my ministers after. So let's get down to buisness." the Queen cleared her throat, "You all are allowed to ask any questions you want pertaining to my nations policies. But please, do not ask my opinions on any wars or violent conflicts going on around the planet. I will also not be answering anything that will jeopardize my Queendom's national security." the young Queen gave a warm smile, "Who would like to ask first?"[/color]

[color="#4169E1"]Queen Eve O'Sullivan got on to the radio span. There was something about the radio that she loved. Not because her face was hidden and she didn't need to dress up formally, something she loved to do, but because it made people listen closely. Watching a television requires little effort. Listening to the radio requires that you listen to every word that is said. By doing this, everyone will hear what has to be said. "Hello ladies and gentlemen" said the young Queen, "I am here to congratulate you all. No longer are you under regional governments or local governments with no central body to govern you all to glory. No longer must you live in fear of being taken over by some terrible government that will suppress your rights or take away you freedoms. And also, no longer will you call yourselves residents of a protectorate. No... Today you are all citizens of a nation. This new nation of ours will be derived from freedom, sustained by liberty, and will be successful on the world stage because you all will have the pursuit of happiness. My name is O'Sullivan. Eve O'Sullivan. I am your first Queen and hopefully not your last. I am here to guide all of us to a path of prosperity and friendship with nations of peace and economical expansion, and defend you from nations with aggressive actions to us. I will try the best I can to make close friends and keep us neutral in bloody conflicts. Am I perfect? No. Are you? Most likely not. Here is something to fathom, we can be closer to perfect then any other nation if we try hard enough. Of course we can never be perfect... But I am sure we can get two thirds of the way there if we try hard enough. I would like to congratulate you all tonight. You are now all citizens of The Queendom of Blue Water. My fellow Water-Blues, please join me in a prayer to keep us all safe in our new journey into this old world. Dear Lord, please watch over my people. Please give them the strength to be good citizens and please give me strength to be a good Queen to my people before anything else. Thank you all for listening. I will be holding a press conference tomorrow. God bless all of you, and God bless Blue Water." The radio service ended. Silence was something that stretched from border to border of the nation. It wasn't a silence of people waiting for something to happen, but the silence when fifty people are waiting to find the right moment to begin a cheer... Then it came... So much noise that the Queen could feel the rumble of the Earth and see the waves of her glass of water gently moving back and forth. Men, women, and children danced in the streets as fireworks soared into the night sky. Whether it was over large cities, or farm villages with few families, dancing was engaged. The Queen had to see what all of the commotion was. Surely no one knew where she was. She had broadcast on all stations. She walked to a window on the 5th story of a broadcast building and there she saw them... The night sky was lit with blue and white; the streets were filled with citizens dancing, and she could see thousands of smiling faces staring at her from the ground. She had decided two things at that point... The nations colors would be the pure colors of blue and white... And that she will have no problem being a Queen of these people... So much enthusiasm and joy... Her reign will be the happiest section of her life...[/color]

[color="#4169E1"]Please mark Manitoba (formally Louisiana) as "The Queendom of Blue Water". And if it is not to much to ask for...

[quote name='Il Terra Di Agea' timestamp='1284827804' post='2457243'] I agree, in the past we've had nations that exercise their power across the world, even without having the nation strength to back up their words.

She um..." trying to remember her mother's words, "will be coming within a few weeks... She just wanted me to come first to let me get to know people here.." she looked down at the floor, trying not to look him in the eye. She felt a strong intimidation from him. Brook moved her legs a little closer together and mumbled out, "When will we be thar Boris... Not to be rude but I'm kind of hungry..." her cheeks turned a rosier red when she felt his hand go on her's. She was acting as if she was terrified and he was apparently starting to take notice. "I'm um fine..." she took her hand back and looked out the window, "It must be nice to have so much green around ye." [/color]

Sargun=pirate =p

[color="#4169E1"]OOC: a future story follows this OOC comment.... Enjoy Brook looked out the window of the plane she was in. It was beautiful outside. Everything was so... green. Unlike the wasteland of yellow sand Organcia was, this diverse land of green and blue was like a paradise to the 16 year old. Her mother, Madam Louise (the President of Organcia witch, in that time, was the head of foreign affairs and second in command) will be coming within two weeks. She sent her daughter early to help show that Organcia trusted this grand ship and that we wanted legitimate peace. Brook's long black hair flowed down her back like the Nile river she was born near. The pilot started to speak to Brook, "We be landing soon lassy. Please be ready." Brook put her seat belt back on and cuddled into the chair. She couldn't wait to meet new people. Even though she was being used as a pawn for peace, she was happy. She would get to meet foreign officials and supposedly a attractive young lad. *** Brook grabbed her bags and got out of the plane. She walked out of the termanal only to find 20 reporters rushing her and she let out a yelp. "What do u think of the American war Brook?" "Do u support socialism?" "We have to know. What's your favorite color?" Brook backed up sheepishly, looking for the lad who was to pick her up but the flashes from cameras were blinding.[/color]

[color="#4169E1"]Juliet let out a scream, thinking it was a real gun, but was not relieved when she felt the pain of a needle jabbed in her arm. She squirmed and squirmed but she started to get more and more relaxed. Not a sleepy kind of relaxed, but more like a calm, cool, collected kind. She glared at the man as her mind began to ponder. She looked around inside the plane and her attention shifted from Kelpie to the ceiling, "The ceiling is so pretty! What kind of blue is that? I really hate blue but I'm just trying to see if you will find this amusing." she said aloud, her thoughts streaming out of her with ease and practically without her noticing, she then continued her random blabbering, "Your tie looks silky. I want to feel it."[/color]

[color="#4169E1"]Queen Madison walked out of her palace and looked around outside. The sunset was so beautiful. The sky was orange with other variating shades that even a rainbow didn't have. To her, this was the best part of the day, especially because she didn't have to do any paper work for anything or anyone at this time. Her daughter, the Princess, came scurrying out of the house and came up to her mother, "Charles said supper is ready..." she waited for her mother's reply, but the Queen's mind was set on the sky, "...Mom?" Madison blinked and then looked at her child, "Oh... Sorry darling. I will be coming inside in a few minutes..." Scarlet, the princess, sighed and went back into the pallace, her long blond hair bouncing behind her. A few "Council Girls" were walking by and the Queen waved to them. She loved her country; and wanted to make sure it would one day become a super power.[/color] [color="#4169E1"] Things being discussed in the Council: -Should men be given the right to vote?

She began letting out shreaks and screams as the restrained her and she began to sob, "Don't hurt me don't hurt me!!!" she shivered in fear as she tried hurting the men who were restraining her but their armor eaily stopped anything from hurting them. On the way to Dublin, she squirmed and thrashed as much as she could, so uncomfortable in her restraints. She glared at the soldiers but when they glared back she quickly minded her own buisness. Then she saw him... A man with pepper and salt hair came and loosened her cuffs. Juliet kept quite for a while, "Who are you?"[/color]

[color="#4169E1"]ORGANCIAN NEWS SERVICE (ONS) POINT OF VIEW: 8:32 A.M. John looked down for a moment then up at the cameras, "Ladies and gentlemen we have breaking news. We have unconfirmed reports that a [i]high-powered explosive device[/i] has just gone off around the 30th floor of Finance Center of Organcia building. Again those are unconfirmed reports." the televisions switched to a picture of the burning building on the right and John on the right. The building was missing a big chunk of it, something like three floors and a lot of room that was once covered with office materials and people. "We are not exactly sure who has done this or what has happened." he put his hand to his earpiece, "Okay... I have just gotten conformation that Bryan and his camera man is alive. He gave us a report saying that gunfire erupted because the man jumped threw security when an alarm went off. Unfortunately he was not hit..." the view zoomed in to the street around the building, "As you can see there are many firetrucks and police cars down there... I am not sure how they could even come close to putting any of this out... Hang on we have more breaking news here... Yes okay the Chancellor Limo is currently going down Port Street. We are not sure exactly why the Chancellor has been evacuated but there are several more cars behind the limo..." John talked for a while longer, probably trying to keep his viewers calm and collected, and said after a few more minutes of talking, "Everyone if you can, please do not call 551 unless you are in a legitimate emergency." END OF POINT OF VIEW: 8:41 A.M. Port Juliet, Organcia: The Capital POINT OF VIEW: 8:37A.M. Chancellor Juliet "Yes ma'am... And gunfire was also heard..." two armed men brushed by Charles. They had on black military uniforms and black sunglasses to match. The first with a deep voice said, "Madam Chancellor you need to leave [i]now[/i]." She looked back at her ministers and the President. "I am not going anywhere until you give everyone in this room a ride along with me." Charles quickly stepped in through to doorway into the room, wanting to go along with the ride. The staff of the building watched as the Chancellor, President, and ministers all rushed to the outside and each piled into a limo. Charles, Juliet, and John having their own private one of course. They zoomed off with the Organcian flag fluttering on the little 5 inch flags in the front of the car. All the lights along Port street turned green and the others turned red on the opposing streets. One of the armed men in the front handed Juliet a red cell-phone (a secure line). "Madam Chancellor I am sorry to contact you on such short notice. I have the National Guard on standby with requests to drop paratroopers over the city. Whatever is happening, we need to keep stability. You are currently being brought to a secret location beneath the ground." Juliet paused for a moment, "I give you the goahead, just have civil defense block out all stations for a few minutes and give a emergency report that any paratroopers dropping over the city are national guard. I don't want our citizens acting friendly fire on our own men." the general put his finger on the hang-up button, "Yes Madam Chancellor." Juliet turned on her limo TV to channel 38 and John tucker was talking, "-one if you can do not call 511 unless you have a legitiment emergency... I am going to let you all go for a moment because the department of Civil Defense has a emergency brodcast message.." the screen went black for 15 seconds and then a recording came on, "THIS IS A MESSAGE FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL DEFENSE. PLEASE STAY INDOORS. ARMED ORGANCIAN FORCES ARE TO BE PARASHOOTING INTO PORT JULIET WITHIN THE HOUR. PLEASE DO NOT BE ALARMED. THIS IS NOT A TEST. THIS IS A MESSAGE FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL DEFENSE." the message kept replaying and Juliet sighed and laid back in agony as helicopters and Hercules began to get ready to transport men to the city. She looked down at her pager and saw she had several messages, already, from other heads-of-state and other governments. [i]God help us[/i] is all she could think. [/color]
