Region: The Confederacy of Free Nations
a) Pretty sure we did know about it because we were originally told the embassy would be closing.
b) Okie doke. I'm sure our MoFA will follow up or otherwise be happy to facilitate a discussion with you.
c) Pay no attention to Mag. Wanting to invade you is his way of saying he likes you.

Ya know, I'm all for fun and games, but if you ruin foreign relations it is a threat to the region; stop.

Take a chill pill guys?
Except you, Peng. We're still cool.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
Or, and this is out there but hear me out, we could form a sort of interregional union between us two (I realize it won't really happen, but I'd totally be for it). Perhaps we could include GR and AEGIS, too.
Now wouldn't that be something, eh?
Jaslandia, Magnatronia
Only if that moo is chocolate.
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
And is purple and 'Milka' is written on it.
Jaslandia
No process but to tell Bax that you want to switch it over.
Russian Fedration, Jaslandia
Yes that as well, and the milk must also have bits of banana floating in it, because reasons, and stuff.

oh boy this is the first time I've had to like majorly tweak a constitutional proposal in response to comprehensive feedback. This convention was a good idea we're gonna have a solid const after this.
The Royal Republic Of Kumania, Jaslandia, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
I know. It is really working.

After a small tet-a-tet with the Minister of Foreign Affairs in The Versutian Federation, Valturus, it has been decided that embassies will be closing after all. According to my counterpart I supposedly changed his mind and he does not want to propose any secondary alternative as he initially claimed.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in The Confederacy of Free Nations - Strongly condemns his undiplomatic, unethical and unprecedented actions driven solely by his hatred towards members of our community.
As Minister of Foreign Affairs, it is in my best wishes to protect the values of my people and my region, forcing me to close all talks with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in The Versuatian Federation, until their current Minister becomes a former one.

I think this is one of the few times I have to disagree with the DIP quote: The person behind the legend may die, but the legend itself will live on and continue to inspire others. And as long as people still believe in the ideals behind that legend, I don't think legends could ever die. But that's just my opinion.

This is the official application form, to make all ya happy about applying :) http://s15.zetaboards.com/COFN/topic/10196796/1/
Russian Fedration, Jaslandia
I would, but I'm already a mentor and constable
#exemplarycitizen
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
one of the #bestcitizens!
Einsiev, Jaslandia, Andromitus, Penguania And Antarctica
[nation=short]Vista Major[/nation] and everyone else.
If Unf is going to do his revisions of his proposed constitution on Friday, should we in the meantime have a regional poll on what we prefer our chief executive's title to be?
Jaslandia, Latrovia, Vista Major, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
I would too but I'm a lazy asswhole #notsoexemplarycitizen
So many freaking titles.
Jaslandia, Vista Major, Andromitus, Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
Supreme Emperor of the Universe for the past, the presence, the future and beyond that and for all know of and to be discovered dimensions, Defender of all Faiths, master of all creatures in heaven, on earth and in hell, Minister of all Ministers, etc. etc.
The Royal Republic Of Kumania, Jaslandia, Andromitus, Tserra
I do like the idea of our First Minister (coughhintcough) commanding armies of skeleton warriors along side angel knight-captains...
Einsiev, Jaslandia, Vista Major, Andromitus, Penguania And Antarctica, Tserra
It'd be nice to get an opinion but mostly its up to Unf since it's his constitution, unless we all voted it down cause of a name lol.
I'd vote for Chancellor. Mostly because it fits well into our history, also anything other than President will have a strange title for the second in command.
First Minister, Second Minister eh. Prime Minister, Deputy Prime Minister eh.
Chancellor, Vice Chancellor, yeahh.
Vista Major, Yukona
I think it's more to guide Unf in his edit, which is why I pointed out that we should do it before Friday when he does said edit.
And I think it would be Deputy First Minister. I don't think anywhere would say Second Minister :P But your point still stands.
Jaslandia, Vista Major
Just, the word deputy puts these faces into my mind.
http://imgur.com/a/MeJ0m
I can do it.
Oelesa
And I for one have never been more turned on by faces before, so... :P
Yukona
Oh..my, well everyone needs love I suppose. Lol
Yukona
Done
Jaslandia, Oelesa, Yukona
Votes chancellor. Lord Vader, everything is proceeding as I have foreeen
Tserra, New Jailand
Ugh. Premier. Director. Leader?!
I understand, give people the choice. But ew :P
Jaslandia, Yukona
You that fella from the train comp'ny?
Jonah has got to be one of my favorite characters from RDR. But I also liked Uncle, MacDougal, and De Santa.
Oelesa
You know, concerning titles, why not just use all of them?
It's not like long ass titles are new... just take a look at Queen Elizabeth II's titles:
Elizabeth II, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of her other realms and territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith
Oelesa
We did that sorta in Montrais.
Jaslandia, Yukona
The United Kingdom is always looking for new potential partners. Telegram us to begin the negotiations with our government and be featured in our Twitter page.
I'm sure there's some school children you can go scare.
I had a thing for Dutch lol.
Jaslandia, Yukona
Even if we did do that, we'd need a primary title that would be used as a short form (for Elizabeth II, that'd be Queen). It's a bit of a mouthful to say "I just saw Elizabeth II, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of her other realms and territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith walking down the street."
Oelesa
Imma take myself to bed. Goodnight family! :)
Jaslandia, Andromitus, Oelesa, Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
Goodnight, Lat!
Yukona
Okay, if we end up going with Chancellor- which I'm totally okay with, as I like it a lot better than President or Premier- then I will not rest until our acronym once again becomes CFN.
None of this "oh, but we had a region we called the CFN". Things can have the same acronym! And no one includes the word "of" in an acronym!! United States Of America. USOA. Ugh. *rages*
Jaslandia, Andromitus, Yukona
So if we succesfully change the Chief Executives name to "Chancellor" can we, in conjunction, change the name of Constables to something a little better, like Arbiter for example?
Oelesa
NO! Because Constabulary is a kick ass word, and that requires that it is made up of constables. And besides, arbiter sounds too much they're judges. :P
Jaslandia, Oelesa
But...Constable..ew
Yukona
How about the Chief Executive and the Board of Dorectors?
So that then they could be called collectively as the Directory?
Vista Major
Gotta go with CC on this. I like the name Constable. It's grown on me.
Jaslandia, Yukona
Oh God, what have I begun.
I just wanted a vote on the name of our chief executive because there were varying opinions of what the title should be yesterday. I don't want to reform the names of our government positions entirely, you hooligans!
By the end of this, my position will be known as the Sub-Poobah of Vice and Virtue.
Jaslandia, Friedensreich, Oelesa
That was honestly my original plan
Oelesa
Peng is sad. Very, very sad.
Jaslandia, Aghrabia, The United Providences Of Perland, Yukona
Directories don't have THAT great of a track record.

Sorry to hear that. May I ask why?
Russian Fedration, Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona
Peng had to put his cat down.
Russian Fedration, Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
Oh. Sorry to hear that, Peng. I've lost pets a couple of times, and I know first-hand it isn't easy losing an animal companion. The best you can do is push through it and go on with your life.
Russian Fedration, Penguania And Antarctica
I know. It's just after more than 10 years with someone who was always there it sucks. Just this morning she woke me up. And out of a sudden she had some kind of embolism or infarct or something. The vet could just relieve her from her pain. :(
Russian Fedration, Jaslandia, Yukona
I feel ya. Pets can often feel like friends, sometimes even family, which makes losing them even harder. It's not easy, but you'll get through it.
Penguania And Antarctica
The don't just feel like family. They are family. Of course I'll get through it. But for now I am just sad. Hope that's understandable.
Einsiev, Jaslandia, Tserra, The Cross And Davids Star, Yukona
Of course it is. Nothing wrong with taking a little time to grieve and mourn.
Penguania And Antarctica, Tserra
I would suggest First Minister y'all, as it sounds extremely badass. But that is your choice.

Can we mark something to where my puppet can take over my official spot
Jaslandia, Vista Major
for the record
as long as it's not President I really don't care about titles
I'm also enshrining the acronym 'CoFN' in the next edit just for you CC
Jaslandia, Aghrabia, Vista Major, Andromitus, Oelesa
Fixed it for you.
Vista Major
If there are any dispatches in The Directory that require updating, please contact me as soon as possible, as I will be completing a sweeping update this weekend.
Penguania And Antarctica
Well know that you mention it...
We'll make him the Prime Minister of Silly Walks.
Russian Fedration, Jaslandia, Andromitus
*Cough Cough* Hmmrrr give up your social life and contribute to your rp mmmrrhh*Cough Cough*

Vista: "Well, I guess no one is interested in the title 'Director'. Guess I'll throw my weight behind 'First Minister', which also has just me as a sole voter."
I voted for you, Bedlam Betsy.
Jaslandia, Vista Major, Penguania And Antarctica
Y'all voting for Chancellor and President are basic! Be adventurous and vote Chief Executive :P
Russian Fedration, Vista Major
Everyone's sitting here debating on an executive title, and here I am getting invaded by an ordained clergyman obsessed with French Toast Crunch. Speaking of which, to try and ensure a not-so-brutal invasion and to celebrate 1,000 pages of RMB:
*burns several boxes of French Toast Crunch before eating Reese's Puffs over the ashes of artificial cereal and cardboard*
Jaslandia, Aghrabia, Vista Major, Penguania And Antarctica, Tserra, Yukona, Magnatronia, New Jailand
Is he actually invading, I thought he was moving to eradicate the Red seas pirate problem?
Jaslandia
Good point. There's no way that could negatively impact a nation literally called "Pirate Kingdoms". :P
Jaslandia, Andromitus
Uh... what's going on?

Anyway, [nation=short]The_Royal_Republic_Of_Kumania[/nation], [nation=short]Andromitus[/nation], [nation=short]Magnatronia[/nation], [nation=short]Russian_Fedration[/nation], y'all have got a post waiting for you!

I'll take a lookie in the morning
I can't look from my phone
The Royal Republic Of Kumania
What about Archon? Not leaderish enough? King? Kaiser? Tsar? Emperor? Imperator? Supremator!?!?!?! :p
Also hi guys :p I will be getting more active here soon. This has been a very busy few months for me, but I should jave more time soon!
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica
Bloody PK is an artifact title by this point: anyways, Tserra did mention that one of the nation's desires is to be one of the only two nations (the other being Jaslandia) to control the Red Sea - since I have control of part of it, including split jurisdiction of the Bab-el-Mandeb strait with Jaslandia, it's seen as a blight.
Jaslandia, Aldaur, Tserra
Anything would be better than simply Prime Minister or Chancellor :P
I like Chief Executive best because it makes COFN look like a business
Oh, and you and I will be having problems if you really do own Taiwan :P
Russian Fedration, Aldaur, Andromitus, Penguania And Antarctica
Lets call Constables Sheriff's or Executioners and they can start running around telling people "You are under arrest freak!"
Friedensreich, Penguania And Antarctica, Tserra
The whole of the Pacific is the dominion of The Most Eternal Empire.
Penguania And Antarctica
Not anymore.... you know that area that is Southeastern China (Hong Kong, Macau, Hainan, Guangdong, Guangxi)? Yeah, that's me.
Russian Fedration, Jaslandia, Aldaur, Penguania And Antarctica, Yukona, New Jailand
I'd like to see you get through the Pacific without our say so. The Aldauri are an ultranationalist warrior people who serve their Divine Sovereign. Not to mention having over a thousand years of imperial history and managing a thalassocracy. The might of the Aldauri Navy is unstoppable. Not to mention our numerous allies from around the world. We will grant you access to the Pacific if you meet our demands though. Only non-military vessels may pass through the Pacific (we will protect and escort your ships if need be), and you pay a trade tax of 2% for trading through our domain. If you are a member of the ITF, you are exempt from these rules.
Ha! I'll never agree to that extortion at face value. If anything, that makes me more likely to turn to the USCS and others like RF in Afghanistan for business via overland routes to escape your tax on sea travel and rules.
Russian Fedration, Aldaur, Magnatronia
RF? Then do so. See how well that works out for you. We will sink all of your ships that dare cross our waters without our permission. The Aldauri have held dominion over the Pacific since the beginning, and that will not change. If you are not willing to comply to the reasonable demands that we have set for for all people in order to keep the Pacific peaceful and prosperous, than we have no choice but to exile you from it. The Pacific is not international waters.
Andromitus
Btw, outside of rping, I promise I am nice :p It is just within Aldauri culture to be obscenely aggressive :p
Jaslandia, Penguania And Antarctica, The United Providences Of Perland, Yukona, Magnatronia
But you don't own land north of me, and I can easily use some trade routes through the rest of China and Asia to get the same effect. Those in Russia and Siberia will undoubtedly need agricultural products given their climate, after all.
These demands are unacceptable, but again, it's alright, because of the aforementioned reasons.
I will not be joining the ITF anytime soon, and will likely join the USCS (offering them a warm water port in Hong Kong, Hainan, and Macau, the agriculture of Hainan and the manufacturing power of Guangdong) for protection and in spite if you try to coerce me into complying with your demands for a portion of my trade income and an encroachment on my sovereignty by forbidding a portion of a military.
Russian Fedration, The Royal Republic Of Kumania
And it's just in our nature as a market socialist country to be greedy af :P
Jaslandia, Aldaur, Penguania And Antarctica, The United Providences Of Perland, Yukona, Magnatronia
We don't care if you trade by land, you just are disallowed to enter the Pacific. We wish you luck on getting that protection, especially since none of them are nearby and it would take a great deal of resources to get their forces nearby to disrupt Aldauri control. We do not encroach on your sovereignty, you encroach on ours. We previously stated, the Pacific is a part of our Dominion, and we will not permit foreign warships to traverse our waters. We also offer you safe passage for a 2% fee, and you rejected our generous and fair offer alongside with a threat to bring enemy forces into our territory. We will not take this insult lightly.
Young fool... Only now, at the end, do you understand...
