Of Mountains and Llamas

"To our knowledge, there are no international courts. In regards to 'touching Peruvian citizens', we do not have any intention of harming them - we made that clear more than once in previous messages. As for Chile and Paraguay, we technically are already 'touching' them, as Tikal has minimum garrisons in all so-called 'white land' throughout the Americas. We will also not withdraw these troops, regardless of what threats or insults you throw in our direction. We will send whatever messages to Bolivia we deem necessary.

 

"As for rules? We protect America from foreign aggression. We have never broken this rule. What other rule have we broken, pray tell?"

"Good night. We will hopefully, never cross your nation again. Bolivia's Own is on our side, so don't try us.If you send messages we will not respond."

[Internal]

 

Bolivia's claims and posturing were dismissed as just that, posturing. Tikal was the foremost nation in the Americas, but also a nation with a great focus on the three great civilisations of the past: The Aztec, Maya and Inca. Protecting their lands from cultural damage or even eradication ranked even higher on the list of priorities than protecting the two continents.

Upstart Bolivia was deemed but a nuisance that could be ignored.

[Private to Bolivia]

 

"Tikal is currently in the process of recalling troops from North Ucayali and Huánuco. We request you send in troops to keep the peace."

 

[Classified]

 

Indeed, all troops in those provinces were being recalled, with little explanation as to the why. Officially, the stance was that Bolivia was better-suited to administer the two provinces.

[Peter Ilyich]

"Are you sure you want to do this? If there is something wrong we should know about, please do tell us and we will see what we may do to help. Also, will this be a permanent change or temporary?"

[Lynneth]

"This will be permanent. There is nothing wrong with the provinces. We are in the process of adjusting our priorities and goals. Some changes are needed."

[Peter Ilyich]

Confidential to Tikal

"We are not very sure if this is the intelligent thing to do, but ok. I do hope you understand why we would be suspicious of this, saying that you just went to a lot of trouble to threaten us and take those lands, Especially northern Ucayali, and now just giving them to us. But ok, trusting you."

 

Confidential

4,000 Bolivian Soldiers are sent to Northern Ucayali and Huánuco, and the states would promptly be welcomed by the Presidente's Cabinet.
