Proxian Empire Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 "As King Douglas of the Proxian Empire, I am pleased to announce that we have granted the independence of four separate nations (ranging from Wales to Normandy) in the past few days. This is good for the ever growing cultural diversity of Europe; a Europe as we see it was meant to be. However, there are a select group of Celtic peoples that we cannot leave to chance. Presently, our Spanish and Portuguese territories are known as part of the Proxian Protectorate, but henceforth the Proxian Empire will be annexing the following region to protect the cultural and linguistic rights of the Celtic people who live in the Basque Region. This territory is officially part of the Proxian Empire. We will continue to welcome other nations in the remnants of our protectorate as we see fit."

Subtleknifewielder Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 We see no reason to oppose this move by the Proxians. So long as the people do not object to the annexation, we will continue to hold this view. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacharth Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) The Basque region is a very important region to the Celtic people, and we congratulate the Proxian Empire on their annexation of the territory.

Proxian Empire Posted June 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 The Basque region is a very important region to the English people, and we congratulate the Proxian Empire on their annexation of the territory. Proxia is not an English nation, it is Scottish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iKrolm Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) OOC: Basque != Celtic!!! IC: The Nation of Selenarctos fails to see how annexing a people preserves the culture of said people, but does not wish to antagonize the Proxian Empire.

V The King Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 "We're quite unsure of how the Basques are related to the Celtics... but since it's Proxia's own protectorate, we will not oppose the move and let them do as they wish, although we find the reasoning given to the international community rather bogus."

Proxian Empire Posted June 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 OOC: I want to clarify that I am aware that in the real world the Basque Region is not Celtic. I am not implying this. In this fantasty RP this region is under my control, and therefore they are whatever I say they are . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Well, if you're talking about the Basque Country, one would assume it'd be mostly inhabited with... Basques, probably some Spanish and French as well. That's of course assuming that no demographic statistic is provided - since historically Celtic people have not inhabited the region, I'd reckon people would need some numbers in regards to the ethnic makeup of the area - it has changed, of course, but no one outside Proxia knows and thus will be left confused."
