OOC: Making a new question for you.
IC: INN: Reporter to Alexandra Vladameir: Is there a chance that war is to break out soon concerning you and the other nations of Trav Khar? ----------------------------------- Austin: I am not a threat to her, she is MAKING me a threat. I simply stated the flaws in her economic plan and i also stated the fact that IF war WERE to break out between the CE and the CIW, I would side with the CIW due to them saving us many years ago. Also, I would "come down and see what I'm talking about" if I was not worried that I would be either assassinated, imprisoned, or worse by the CE government. Plus, we see what goes on in that country...let's just say our intelligence department was revamped as well, and we have things from that nation that would outrage most of trav khar if we even released it. ... Concerning the statement about my nation, there is one key difference. We have always had unity as a nation. People trust me enough, and know that I will make the right decisions for my country. Yet they will take me out if i go to far. She has no stopping point, there is no to far for her, because there is no one except the puppets she has installed in her government to state otherwise! Therefore, it doesn't matter what we go through as a nation. All that matters is that we have our patriotism and our national pride. Can you say the same for the CE? Can you honestly say that citizens support a woman who killed 25 % of my diplomats as they were peacefully leaving? The other 75% had to escape like refugees! CE, be wary. Just because we have returned, doesn't mean we are weak.

OOC wel thankya kindly ;P ====================== INN -with a large pistol clearly visable on her desk- " the chance of war will be the choice of the other nations mentioned ...if the infringe on our destiney or shelter a terrorist as the seattle government has done that wil be on them ...war has already broken out between MR. morrayand his rats and the empire .. if your going to ask the effects of this war ...imagine half of your country where done away with...that is what these seattle bastards will face" ================================================================== the reporter smiled left the room and returned with a breifcase
" so you are saying that you are spying on the empire? invading its space with sattelites and spys? and you talk about freedom ....now about your diplomats... the laws of the empire clearly state that no one may enter or leave forgein or otherwise with out written permission from the empress herself ..on pain of death.. therefore you and your diplomats brought it on yourselfs ... and yes i can say they support her.... she apears on their televisons every day ...radios every night....the national anthem is playin on the loudspeakers outside...and every home has a portrait of her.... that is not all but i will not bore you with details of rallys and speeches tours and pledges ....all you need to know is the people of the empire are very nationalistic and very loyal to their empress and the vladameir family who have guided run or finaced the economy and government of the empire in some form for 400 years "

OOC: WHERE IS EVERYONE ELSE? T-T
INN reporter: So it is now a goal to personally wipe out half of seatille for the CE? Do you worry about international backlash? ------------------------- Austin:Well I see they hired you because your sharp and loyal.Unfortunately due to national aqnd international security I am not at liberty to release any military operations, I'm sure you understand. Also, you yourself made a mistake talking about freedom. Judging by what you've said it sounds like she's made a cult of personality with herself. Plus, it is a human right to be allowed in and out of a country, the right to travel. Plus foreign diplomats are given diplomatic immunity, so as long as it's not an international crime like murder, they should be allowed to leave. So she IS taking the most basic of human rights away! Also, your a reporter, you ASK for MY opinion on these issues, not state how I'm wrong by saying that YOU personally support her. *whispers to reporter as camera zooms out for break* I preffered to other reporter.

OOC: i made a few mistakes, 1. I said REPORTER when the camera zoomed out, i meant government aide, so don't think he whispered an insult to your reporter, sorry
IC: INN: Austin, since I've just obtained permission from our intelligence branch to release some of the info I previously mentioned, I will explain how we know about what goes on in that country. You see, from time to time, we accidentally intercept (or accidentally get don't know how else to say it) various radio stations, broadcasts, and television, through our state of the art program that built towers all over The New Empire in order to sufficiently provide the public with information. Our intelligence department keeps the obtained broadcasts, which everyone knows cannot be blocked once they cross OUR borders, because as everyone knows there is no stopping point to these broadcasts, only a decrease in the wavelength, and simply decrypts them and their messages to find out what major events are taking place in that country. As a nation, we like to keep informed. By the way, international law also states that you should not kill diplomats, due to their immunity, yet your Empire kills them. Plus I am sure your nation has done operations that would be deemed badly on the international community, IF they were to be released.
On the subject of the first broadcasts we had, well for one, we were a developing nation that came from a revolution that fought a cruel and evil ruler that killed many of our brethren, so yes, after we founded this nation, almost 90% of our nation supported a new government, the other 10% either were supporters of the old regime, or simply worried about our future, not a solidified empire with a leader that has been in power for quite some time as the CE, and to a lesser extent myself. Back then we only had those stations, which were not always honest, as far as I can personally tell, yet they did report the travesties, such as a nuclear bomb going off in our nation, so people watched them. A good old world example can be "FOX news" in the United States. Many opinions, but they do tell the news, just like here in the INN.
On the subject of "infringing" on national rights, I've always believed when it comes to the chain of power it should go like this. *shows paper*
International law | International Body (such as the UN) | National Government | State Government
And so on.
*puts down paper* I believe international law can supercede governments, due to the many different types of government. I believe in sovereign government, but when the citizens start to suffer due to their government, not that I am saying yours' are, then international government should step in.
Reporter: Well for the backlash part, as everyone knows, war can be devastating to a self sufficient economy if it were to somehow be brought to your homeland, an example of this would be Germany during World War 2, just on the economic standpoint, and due to the economic reform it would be increasingly difficult to build it back up if the corporations were to suffer losses from said backlash.
On a side note, Empress, why did you kill over 50 diplomats that were trying to leave the country? If anything, many people would think you would welcome them leaving, due to your seemingly isolationist standpoint on foreign affairs. Care to explain?

OOC: Oh dear, slight archive binge IC: Grevious' Office The secretary restated: "I'm sorry, General Grevious is currently away. May I take a message or should I ask for his presence?
Airspace No response was given from the CIW convoy. Knowing that the convoy was backed by CIW and Seattilan planes, and the fact that a shot would further increase CIW-Canti tensions, if not result in war, the CIW felt able to call the bluff.
Sudooku's Office "So with this 'webcam' contraption, you are essentially creating the possibility of interactive, long-distance interaction between the leaders of Trav Khar?" Sudooku asked. Grevious, who was still there, nodded. "Yes," said the technician. After several extra minutes, the Sudooku's computer was able to connect with the INN system. Grevious walked over, to the side of Sudooku's desk, grabbed a chair, and sat down. His face had a look of anticipation. Sudooku shifted in his chair. He knew that he had to look dignified and noble. After all, it was just like a regular speech or interview, only one within the comforts of his own office. Sudooku and Grevious (who was watching from the side, outside of the webcam's range) watched Austin Setzer replying to the reporter.
A message then came from another reporter: "Count Sudooku, what is the current standings with the CE, as recent tensions rise between you two?" As the sound system was switched on for a reply, Sudooku spoke. "Well, unfortunately, Cantili-CIW relations have seen better days. The recent actions of the Cantians have dissappointed us. Nevertheless, we remain resolved to find a diplomatic solution to the current conflict between our two allies. Fortunately, we currently have insufficient reason to declare war on the Cantiliahantan Empire-" "Yet." Grevious mumbled to himself. "-and we hope it remains so," Sudooku finished.
INN "Hello, this is Ronald Lande, of the Karadas Broadcasting Foundation. We have a question for Austin Setzer. The CIW government would like to know if the New Empire is comitted to finding a peaceful solution to the Seattilan-Cantiliahantan war, and if we can count on your support and diplomatic influence to help us in this regard. Thank you."

OOC: Also, your previous posts brought up an interesting issue. I always presumed our RP to take place in an alternate universe or difference world compared to Earth, though in many ways similar to whatever's happening on Earth. IC Airspace Tension was in the air, literally. Soon enough the convoy came in range of the Seattilan airport. (OOC: will now wait for Seattile here)
Sudooku's Office Sudooku flashed a smile. "Yes, relations between these countries have been very friendly in the past. I do not believe they have been optimal however, but that is simply my personal philosophy that perfection is an unrealistic concept, in that if one looks hard enough, one can always find a better option. If you'll excuse me for that small diversion, I can offer you a theory as to why our two nations have grown apart. Essentially, our empires have grown apart from each other. While we made our first steps toward democratization, the Cantiliahantan Empire has grown autocratic, removing economic and political rights, increasing the influence of the military on society, limiting their people's movement, and suspect of human rights abuses." Then the phone rang. "If you'll excuse me, I have a phone call to attend to," Sudooku said before the technician turned off the webcame and muted all sound. The image of INN could still be see though. "Good day. This is Count Sudooku. To whom do I have the pleasure of speaking to?"

OOC: I consider the RP universe Earth, yet it's so far in the future, the past barely matters.
INN
Austin *to reporter*: Currently we are nuetral on this Cantil-Seatil conflict, but if the need for fighting arises, you can count on us as the CIW's faithful ally.
Austin: I would also like to state that I accept the empress' invitation *shakes man's hand* , but this has to be a civil conversation, no guns, no mudslinging, after all, thats what we have the INN for! *room laughs*
Inn reporter: In other news the newest Empire Fleet has been commisioned. 3 newly deemed "supercarriers", aircraft carriers capable of carrying twice as many planes, plus a missle launcher and nuclear reactor are some of the highlights in the fleet. The New Empire has also discovered a recent medical contraption that allows it to diagnose and cure people who are sick even faster.

Austin: Yes it has....I don't know whether that is a bad or good thing....So what is it that you would like to discuss? I think we can have a nice civil conversation togeth--
*stops and hears loud crowd in backround saying "Choose a side! (referring to the war)*
Excuse me real quick. *leans out window* Hey! I am having a meeting here! *rock smashes through window*
Get the security squad before things get worse!
*sighs and sits down* anyway, continue...
Outside of the Palace *police try to clear area but things get worse*
Citizen: DOWN WITH THE EMPIRE! DOWN WITH IMPERIALISM!
Squad Officer: Sir calm down or we are going to have to use force.
Citizen: Like He** I am! *pulls out gun and shoots officer* LONG LIVE THE RESISTANCE!
Squad officer: IM HIT! *rest of squad mows down citizen and aims guns at rest, all the while the media sees this*
OOC: So yes this is public.

Sudooku's office Upon hearing Roland say his name, Sudooku turned on the loudspeaker on the phone so the room (NOT INN) could hear it. He listened intently. After Roland had finished, he turned to Grevious. "We may have to accelerate your grand strategy," he said. "Perhaps. Those nukes could be interpreted as saber-rattling." "But the biological weaponry provides an opportunity... Roland, we can use that evidence on biological weaponry to inform Austin Setzer and Seattile of the threat. However, we shall not declare war yet. We shall not be the agressors here."
As Sudooku spoke, Grevious turned up the volume on the INN screen so they could listen to what was happening (note: INN still can't hear what's going on in Sudooku's office) "The Setzers could use that justification," Grevious mused, upon which Sudooku nodded.

Sudooku's office "F@#$ing hell!" Grevious cursed as he watched Austin and Alexandra speak. "Alliance? What does he think he's doing!?" Sudooku's surprise could be seen in his eyebrows, but the Count listened attentively to Roland in the meantime. "Grevious. Make sure the Setzers and Seattile are notified of the biological weaponry possessed by the Cantians." Grevious nodded, and swiftly left Sudooku's office. The Count took a couple seconds to gather his thoughts, and replied. "Roland. I have been informed that your mother is currently in Austin Setzer, talking to Setzer himself. While the CIW disdains the use of assassination attempts as dishonorable, there is a window if you feel the need to take action. Realize that I do not hate your mother as President Morey might, Roland. I pity her. I pity that which she has become. I, as leader of the CIW, want wars of agression to be a thing of the past. There must at least be one nation to give the example. We shall not attack, unless provoked. The honor of our nation is built on that. And I have doubts on your capability to organize a rebellion here in the CIW. While you will have our backing in the form of materials and supplies, I highly suggest you base your operations in Seattile instead. After all, you are then much closer to the land you wish to retake. But at least I thank you for the information on the biological weapons. At the very least I can make my allies aware of the threat the Cantiliahantan Empire poses."
Message sent from the CIW Defense Ministry to the Austin Setzer Government To whom it may concern, The CIW has recently aqcuired intelligence from Cantiliahantan defector Roland (whatever Alexandra's last name was), the son of the Cantian Empress. Roland claims that Cantiliahantan is building up its nuclear and biological weapons stock, and will not hesistate to use them on perceived threats. While the CIW accepts Austin Setzer's decision to enter an alliance with the Cantiliahantan Empire, we advise he tread with caution. Signed, General Francis Grevious
