Let's ride it out. I like a challenge. Look at what Babkha does. They annex someone through an unscrupulous method, everyone complains, eventually the complaints die down, and at the end of the day everyone likes them again.If worst comes to worst, we can tell Delphi that the situation has grown untenable, and that he either has to agree to some compromise with the Republic (which we can easily work out) or leave. But I don't think we're anywhere NEAR that point yet.

As long as you think we can ride it out, I have no problems.This is your brainchild, Scott, and I've got faith in you. Just make it work.

It seems like our recent acquisition of the Dinarchy has caused everyone and their grandmother to turn their guns on us. What to do...? Edited by: Kaiseress Semisa I  at: 12/2/05 15:21

I think we may need to cap total duchy sizes at 10. specify that subdivisions may not join international organizations of any kind. and I had some other ideas.. but I forgot them at the moment.These would go in the Lawbook and Decrebook respectively.I also think we need some rules on secession, to make it impossible for subdivisions that were not once soverign powers, who when joining made an agreement which would let them loose, to secceed.

Nothing new in that conversation.What to do with Elywnn? Decree that subdivisions cant make official deals or alliances outside Shireroth, or have their own currency. Simple.What to do with the Dinarchy? Yes, this is worth it. Everything's coming to a head, and its with us at the helm with two fingers ready to pop it. If it isn't us, it'll be someone else, so why not us? As for the GC thinking we're getting too big? WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THEM?! *storms off* There are no flowers, no not this time. There will be no angels gracing the lines, just these stark words I find.

*Raises his hand in agreement with Erik and Greg on the Elwynn issue*I thought it was already illegal for subdivisions to join organizations or alliances outside Shireroth, but if it isn't, now's the time. And if it is, might as well decree it again anyway to drive the point home.I also like Erik's suggestion about an anti-secession law:Quote:I also think we need some rules on secession, to make it impossible for subdivisions that were not once soverign powers, who when joining made an agreement which would let them loose, to secceed.Simultaneously protect annexees like Hyperborea and (more recently) Antica from having their secessional provisions revoked, but keep subdivisions with no historical basis for a separate existence in our grasp where they belong.I don't know how I feel about the currency thing yet, though... maybe edging towards dangerous, but it might be better just to keep an eye on that for now.

Sager = "says".That would be a transcript between Harald Thorstein (Emperor) and Ric Lyon (Rikard).Also, Ric sent me the text of the deal going around.Quote:Whereas we have observed with alarm the growth of Shirerithian power over the proceeding year;And whereas the Imperial Republic of Shireroth has annexed by treaty the government of the Dinarchy of Antica, which some recognize as no government at all,Let it be known that the undersigned nations declare the following:1. That the aforementioned treaty, the Treaty of Aquilaria, is unacceptable to the parties of this declaration and furthermore to the micronational community at large.2. We therefore request the repeal of the aforesaid treaty by the appropriate organs of state within Shireroth.3. We furthermore let it known that the terms of the aforesaid treaty are held to be illegal by the respective signatories, and will not be respected if kept in place.4. The signatories declare that as the sole surviving government of Antica, the Antican Republic be granted full rights to all Antican land on the MCS.5. We furthermore declare that no future annexations by the Imperial Republic of Shireroth, or any successor state, shall be judged as lawful by the body of nations.6. It is furthermore stated that the claim of the Grand Commonwealth to Lac Glacei is supported by the signatory nations.7. In return for its support, the government of the Republic of Antica pledges to grant Attera the territory of New Brannum upon the return of Antican lands to the aforesaid government.8. We, the signatory nations, pledge our support to the terms of this declaration through whatever means may become necessary.My question is, why does Atterra want New Brannum so badly? I mean, Steven practically begged me just for that one piece of land before all this started. Edited by: Kaiseress Semisa I  at: 12/3/05 9:24

Ooooooh, I was thinking that John Sager had somehow become an Emperor of somewhere. Okay, I'm silly.Delphi would be most likely to know the answer to the question about New Brannum; if you haven't asked it in SEP, you might want to.

Well clearly, considering Byzantia's recent outburst, we need to stop any kind of foreign politicking on the part of fiefdoms. They're not allowed be disloyal in general, why let it pass when they're disloyal abroad?If they want to speak out of line, they can do it as foreigners, which is what they obviously feel they still are..

I removed your SEP access during the Attera thing, because you're a dual-citizen there. You can have it back now.
