46 would be nice, but the MAS 36 was used much more and for a long time. Would work better with my Indochina impression better. What I would love to bet would be a MAT 49.
FN FAL. Not French, but an iconic NATO rifle.
Yeah, and that's why he and I get along so well.
He's a big nerd for this show he got me into (it's an Australian show called "Please Like Me", where an Australian man comes out of the closet and the show documents his life), while I'm a big nerd for Rick and Morty. I'm a big nerd for political science and economics, and he's a big nerd for his business classes. Things like that.
But we have some big problems that are probably only going to get worse. I'm a guy that loves to go out and do something, and he prefers to stay in. I'm a guy that likes to have parties, and he's a guy that likes small little get-togethers.

Yeah, yeah. He's a Montague, you're a Capulet :P But there's always compromise and the fact that you guys can do things separately. I mean, you obviously already do given your carnival story. But if you guys really like each other, I'm sure you guys can work on doing things that the other likes and such. It seems like he's more of an introvert whereas you are an extorvert, but I don't think that's insurmountable for couples.
And I know Please Like Me. Adorable, sad at times, and funny as all get out.

Oh, this is another adorable thing we did.
When we first met, he told me and got me into the show, and when I got to the end of it, we disagreed about who we liked best.
He said he wanted to be Josh, and I said Josh was too awkward (mind you, I've told my bf a million times that I'm awkward af. I've got another story that melted my little heart of stone if you want to hear it). He said Josh's awkwardness was adorable, and I said it just makes things complicated.
I then said I liked Geoffrey best because he's simple. He didn't like Geoffrey because he thought Geoffrey was too moody. And then I said Geoffrey was worth the moodiness XD

You're right with Geoffrey. He's adorable and down to earth. I think I still have a crush on Geoffrey.

So, at this point he and I have been talking for months and know each other pretty well. I introduced him to my best friend Miranda, and her roommate Kay saw he and I walking together. The next time Kay saw me and asked me why I didn't have sex with him yet, she was telling me all this stuff about what she would do to him.
Well, later on we went out for a lunch on campus before class. I brought it up to him (his name is Mitch) that my friend Kay saw he and I walking around and said she wanted to "fùck his brains out".
I had been using a sort of disguised way of talking about our gayness by saying we preferred pretzels over doughnuts a long time before, and he said in response: "too bad I like pretzels and not doughnuts".
I then said "Well, I told her she can disguise herself as me and do all the talking if she wanted to". I was honestly just trying to joke with him, but the next he said made my heart of stone melt.
He said "I'd know it wouldn't be you."
I dunno why I liked that so much aside from taking it as that he basically just told me that he knows me and my personality so well that he would be able to pick me out of a crowd.
I said "Because I'm too awkward to be that direct?"
He said "Yeah and some other stuff".
And then he went on to talk about how Kay (a girl with double D's and a darker shade of skin than me) would never be able to disguise as me.

Well, you want to know one of the biggest ironies I've ever seen?
Charlemagne, a Frankish King, has been considered to be the founder of the Holy Roman Empire, which is known today as the Erste Reich. The HRE lasted as a loosely connected cluster of provinces and kingdoms under the rule of the Holy Roman Emperor for around a millennium, from 800 CE to 1806 CE.
From 1806 to 1871, the powers that dominated in the former HRE were Prussia (formerly known as the Teutonic Order), Bayern (Bavaria), and for a while during the Napoleonic Wars, the Confederation of the Rhine.
After that, you know the story. Prussia united all of Germany through conquest lead by Bismarck and proclaimed the German Empire.
The German Empire quickly grew to be a power in Europe, rivaling the British Empire. It became exceptionally powerful, and the British and French grew wary of a powerful Germany.
These tensions grew and grew until the Austro-Hungarians delivered an ultimatum to the Serbians for the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand.
The Serbians refused, Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia, which dragged in the British and French (whom had a prior allegiance to Serbia from the Crimean War iirc), which caused the Germans to get involved.
Ludendorff led a pretty successful campaign in Belgium and France against the Triple Entente, and Germany destroyed the Russians in the east. Following the treaty of Brest-Litovsk, a bunch of battle hardened German soldiers could be relocated to the western front against the British and French. This led to Kaiserschlacht in 1918, a series of German offensives under the command once again of Erich Ludendorff. Kaiserschlacht was the most successful offensive by either side on the western front since 1914.
Now, that is why I say the Treaty of Versailles was so brutal. The British and French were scared of a powerful and energetic German nation. As we all know, the Treaty of Versailles lead to the Germans electing a dictator to office and starting WW2.

So...why are we removing our Embassy with TVF?
I understand full well that Valt resides there -and trust me, the thought of him interacting with our region is more nauseating to me than anyone else- but I have been promised by their FA minister -over Discord Public Chat- that their President, Minister of Justice, and Minister of Internal Affairs (alongside their public, mind you) know what he's done, and have already gotten a promise from him not to be involved in the COFN embassy. Furthermore, they seem like good people to have around.
If one wants to use the overly nationalistic -or should I say "Regionalistic"?- argument that embassies should only be made with Regions that benefit us, then TVF fits the bill as it is simultaneously active and friendly. So long as Valt maintains his side of the deal -which, by all rights he absolutely should, considering that he's an enemy of the state- I see little harm in allowing our Region to continue with TVF allies.
Jaslandia, Latrovia, Yukona
Valt is now the MoFA for their region, and he was the first one to initiate closing the embassy. Their former MoFA, who has spoken to us in the Discord, is now their Minister of Immigration.

As former MoFA who worked to get y'all to Agree embassiess would be cool despite a historical tie and slight raider tie (don't worry we're a neutral region so we embassy with raiders and defenders but we avoid that whole game cause rp is more fun), I'm sad to see the closure. However after meeting a number of you in the discord, I have hope that one day we will have a strong and close bond to rival the NS ages! I'll still be around to bother y'all in the discord so don't think you're done with me yet!!! Y'all are a great bunch and I look forward to whatever future TVF and COFN have together!

Springfield Armory XD-S. A bit too showy in design, but the baby shoots nicely and is relatively reliable. Also, baby is nice and smol. Can fit in a sweat pants pocket and you'd have no idea it us even there. Oh, and some the extended magazines for it aren't the best either, one I've tried has a tendency to make unloading the clip more difficult as it almost seemingly jams the button.

There is absolutely no way that I would close embassies with any region just because Ru or Valt or the Devil himself could be in them. I totally agree 100% with what you said.
Valturus gave the order for closing embassies with us and then sent me two TG's with the following text:
TEXT 1: "Notice of embassy closure:
Greetings, Latrovia;
I am writing to you in official capacity as Minister of Foreign Affairs for The Versutian Federation to notify you that embassies between our two regions shall be closed. I write to you personally to ensure that no miscommunication occurs from utilizing a middle man to send this message. The reasons for this decision are numerous, and primarily boil down to the lack of positive relations that can stem from an embassy with your region, known as The Confederacy of Free Nations. I believe we can both see no point in continuing embassies when they will be of no productive use.
Regards,
Valturus."
TEXT 2: "I am willing to discuss another arrangement regarding embassies, if possible."
--------------------------
Of course his actions were both undiplomatic, unethical and unprofessional. COFN's Ministry of Foreign Affairs had no way rather than ordering the closure of embassies until we will be able to negotiate with Valturus in other terms. Of course there is no way that we will fall for any middle ground that Valt might propose. I am looking for equality and understanding, if we dont get those two... I am afraid that Valt will lose this game.
Right now I am preparing a small speech to send over to their region.
The Royal Republic Of Kumania, Jaslandia, Yukona
My two posts in their respective RMB channel.
[spoiler]Greetings my fellow comrades.
My name is Harry Tsoukla Jr or you may have heard of me with my alias as Latrovia. I am the current acting Minister of Foreign Affairs, representing the COFN and my people's interests.
I approach you with more than my will and determination to fix what's wrong and create a better and more sustainable future for both of our regions.
Your Minister of Foreign Affairs, Valturus, sent me 2 Telegrams with the following text:
TEXT 1: Notice of embassy closure:
Greetings, Latrovia;
I am writing to you in official capacity as Minister of Foreign Affairs for The Versutian Federation to notify you that embassies between our two regions shall be closed. I write to you personally to ensure that no miscommunication occurs from utilizing a middle man to send this message.

I believe we can both see no point in continuing embassies when they will be of no productive use.
Regards,
Valturus.
TEXT 2: I am willing to discuss another arrangement regarding embassies, if possible.
--------------------------------------
Of course as you might understand, these two texts are offensive enough as they are miss interpretations with their aim to miss inform your citizens and our current and future diplomatic relations.
These two texts along with the final order of closing embassies are enough for me to make me treat my counter-part Valturus with less respect and dignity. But I chose to stand my ground and be a better man.
His actions and his order is both unprofessional, undiplomatic and unethical, as this is a political action driven by your Minister's personal vendetta against the word of my people. As a Minister I wish nothing ill to your people, but I am here to represent my people's voice and their best wishes to create something unique and wonderful among our people.
This is not my region, so I have no right to make demands, but I humbly request that your people and your government take action towards this fascist order.
With best regards
~Latrovia[/spoiler]
[spoiler]To make this even more fair, I request that I have an immediate voice debate with my counter part and your Minister of Foreign Affairs Valturus, so justice can be served. It could be in Discord and any citizen and leader of each of our regions can participate.[/spoiler]

Minor syntax error. In English, to preface your title with "acting" usually means that you are filling the role in a strictly temporary manner. When VP Dick Cheney took over for President Bush when the latter was undergoing a colonoscopy, Cheney was "Acting President". As you are the MoFA elected in your own right, you are simply the Minister of Foreign Affairs, not acting Minister of Foreign Affairs.
Tl;dr Cheney shot his friend in the face.

Killing 60 million people, forcibly creating famine, using his position to enact authoirtarianist policies, frequently killed off his rivals such as Kirov, Radek and Trotsky? And it's a matter of opinion? It's a matter of fact

Economically it put the union in the 3rd spot in the world behind US and Germany. Yea im the First to Admit stalin wasent the sweetest of cookies , but without him the USSR let alone Russia wouldent exist today,and that im Eternally greatful for ,and tommrow i will celebrate that .

Killing 60 million, including his political rivals, expanding the NKVD and causing intentional famine is opinion?

yea 60 mil is bad (Even tho ive never seen that number ive seen something like 15-20M...yea but still) Expanding the NKVD i wouldent call a bad thing and Intentional Famine is not what that was.
and no Khrushchev didnt , and yes Gorbi was a westerner at heart . his interviews a few years ago he said that the Break up of the Union was a Grave mistake on his part.
Come to The Confederacy of Free Nations for the bants, stay for the riveting discourse.

But really, true.
Hey man, its how you interpret "riveting" that makes this place.
How am I anti-Russian? I was a Slavaboo in my early teens, I can speak basic Russian - I'm far from it, don't be so sensitive. Expanding the NKVD by holding mock trials and therefore executing or sending people he personally didn't like to labour camps. Regardless, if he was such an economic genius he would have had the foresight. I'm not saying Khrushchev did as well, they were just endless plans pouring out quantity over quality. Energy and consumer quotas were constantly failed. Gorbachev at least brought more economic growth to the USSR and stopped the Russian state from dominating the entirety of Eastern Europe, the Caucasus and Central Asia. And no, Gorbachev didn't say that, he said he regretted giving Yeltsin the power he actually said this:
"The fact that I went on too long in trying to reform the Communist party." He should have resigned in April 1991, he said, and formed a democratic party of reform since the Communists were putting the brakes on all the necessary changes." (paraphrasing).
And what he does regret is how awful Russia entered into a mixed-market economy, which was like a badger in a charity ceramic shop.

The USSR was an experiment in state capitalism that proved that an authoritarian communist state is doomed to fail from itself as opposed to libertarian communist communities that only failed due to authoritarian communists.
I think I draw the line of bad when you start killing thousands and millions of people indiscriminately, no matter what you achieved.

[B]Article from the Sulanian Independent[/B]
"Following the surge in nationalistic sentiment premiering after the election of SNP head Joshua Varen to governor, as well as the sweeping SNP numbers in the Senate, a resurgence in the use of the Sulanian Cross Flag, formally known as the Republican Flag, has swept across Sulania. Sulanian Nationalists, in a public display of their support for Independence, have raised the flags outside of a number of homes across the province. Even some local governments of opted to fly the old Republican Flag rather than the Provincial Flag of Sulania.
Today, efforts have been made by SNP leaders in the Senate to introduce a bill to make the Republican Flag the new Flag of the Province. This would be a major step in solidifying Sulania's movement to secede from the Reich, though it is unknown how many will support the rush to the old Republican Flag.
Governor Joshua Varen has come out in full support of changing the flag, while former Governor Poklonskaya opposes the move, calling it 'a vehement and incendiary move that will only further strain tensions with the Reich.' It is unknown how the Republican Party will vote, though the SNP led coalition has already rallied support for the move, while the opposition has rallied against. The vote for the new flag will come in the next 2 days, and until then the debate will continue."
