Blacky Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 4 years ago from today after the hardships endured in the defense of an ally, the NAAC disbanded. There were a plethora of reasons which lead to the disbandment of the NAAC, for example; the lack of trustworthy alliances which existed at the time, the unjust surrender terms which would have disgraced the NAAC's name, and the realization that the NAAC as it was could not continue to exist in what the world had become. Now, 4 years on we commemorate all that the NAAC stood for. For glory, for honor, for truth, for courage, for friendship and for loyalty. However the NAAC did not fade into the darkness. To this day a part of the NAAC lives on it's ex-members, in the aftermath of it's bravery, and in the memories of all those who played some part in the greatness of the NAAC or those who witnessed it. The NAAC lives on through it's flag which flies freely. I want to leave you all with a message that has stood the test of time, remaining as an existing blue team message for 4 years now. As potent as the day it was written. St Heliers (14th of April, 2007) "many of you will be aware the NAAC disbanded on the 14th of April 2007. NAAC was the longest standing and for much of its existence the premier alliance of the Blue Team. Its disbandment can be mainly attributed to the stresses that Great War III brought to the membership of the NAAC. I think I speak for most blue team members when I say this is a sad day for the blue team." Glory to the NAAC. May she live on in our memories forever.

D34th Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 National Alliance for Arctic Countries was a great alliance and I'm glad that I was allied to them back then. NAAC o/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borsche Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 I used to go by the name Siphai and the NAAC was my home from October 2006 until its disbandment. I served as the Minister of Recruitment. NAAC will always be the greatest alliance to me, the best collection of friends you could find. May the National Alliance for Arctic Countries live on.

Neither of those other rivalries, while great, reached that level. In the end, really the only thing that destroyed the NAAC was our martyr complex that we had.

[/quote] I wasn't around, but I am guessing what added to the NAAC/NpO rivalry was the fact that it was all based for the dominance of the Blue sphere. That adds a whole other element into the rivalry. Edited April 15, 2011 by Ryan Greenberg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
