Araxion

[Kaiser Mors V]

I didn't even know about it till after the fact.. and people are all buttsore about me for no real reason... So there wasn't much I could do.. and I don't know real copyright law well enough nor have the money to fight it at that level...

[andelarion]

The MCS accepted!

Araxion, some of it anyway, is back in the empire!

[Aurangzeb Khan]

It has all in all been a good day for Mangos and Camels. Except for the mangos that were eaten by the hungry camels and the hungry camels that were poisoned by the overripe mangos but a good day nonetheless.

[Jonas]

This is the prove they can't resist our power... it's time to make a Holly Alliance and declare war on and annex all countries

[Aurangzeb Khan]

Who am I to say no to such a proposition?

[Harald of Froyalan]

That's really good news indeed.

[hypatias mom]

Congratulations to our noble negotiatiator! (And I don't even know the historical significance of Araxion.)

[Harald of Froyalan]

Thank you very much.

[Jacobus Loki]

ALL HAIL HARALD!

We've got Vikings, and Babkahns and Mangoes and Angry Trees! How can they resist?

[Harald of Froyalan]

Thank you very much.

[Kaiser Mors V]

Indeed! The Kaiser is pleased greatly... And way yo go Harald... I am pleased with this success of your for the empire.... Greatly pleased...

[Harald of Froyalan]

My Lord Kaiser,

Thank you very much. I'm glad to have been able to be of service to the empire.

[Gman Russell]

What happened??

[hypatias mom]

I just went back and reread the first post on page one. We now have Araxion back as part of Shireroth, as it was in the past. It now makes sense again to me. Duke Harald, it is good that you have restored this land to our territory.

[Kaiser Mors V]

Actually.. this is indeed a great victory for Shireroth... I should check the awards we have and see if any are applicable...

[Harald of Froyalan]

The MCS has updated its map and Araxion is therefore back on the MCS map now.

[Jess]

Whew, just what Shireroth needs, more land!

I'm serious

Crap, I was just about to submit a claim for Amokolia to claim that

[hypatias mom]

But you don't understand. It's not new land to Shireroth--we're just reclaiming what was originally ours.

[Andreas the Wise]

I helped defend it too ... remember my

Guys, Shireroth is quite happily active again, possibly more active than any of your nations. And the culture it already had was amazing (has anyone else here actually read the histories?). And even having been away for three weeks I know it built up some amazing new stuff very quickly. There comes a point in every nation's life where they move beyond post count and it becomes "if I am sustaining these levels of activity and still building up culture, I can expand". Unless you do like NB and de-expand for the fun of re-expanding. Because if it was on post count alone, CoG should have as much land as Shireroth ...

post?

But for those worrying about MCS dislike, remember what Spangle said after it was accepted - It was always accepted to the claim and denied to the mod in voting. I reiterate what's been said before - if we claim small and not too rapidly, we can still keep expanding.

But if you're worried about Jeremy speaking out against us ... since we did want Cognito back, we could start by invading Vanderveer, which is the brown smear in the upper part of Cognito. Gralus is already attempting to secure the west coast, but I'm sure we'd be more than happy to support Shireroth in getting the rest of it ...

[Kaiser Mors V]

shhh... Not here... not here....
