Shireroth

I think this posticon sums up recent events far more eloquently than I ever could - nevertheless, I should probably continue, considering how many people here don't check the world outside Shireroth.Recently, Babkha, Baracao, and Treesia got embroiled in a conflict over two pieces of land, the Lighthouse City State and the Far Reaches. All three nations claimed both of these areas. Baracao and Treesia worked out a treaty in which Baracao got Lighthouse and Treesia got the Reaches, and then both states cooperated against Babkha.This angered the Babkhans, who cancelled their alliance with Baracao and unrecognized both countries. Ardashir Khan, a private citizen of Babkha and a former Lighthousian citizen who the Baracaoans used sketchy means to strip of his citizenship, attacked Lighthouse and deleted its board in protest - the Babkhan government stated they did not support this action. The Baracaoans said that they held the Babkhans responsible but said they would not "stoop to their level".The latest incident is that Ardashir Khan obtained evidence of a Treesian/Baracaoan plan to destroy Babkha. This is very disturbing information. The current state of affairs is thus:1. Ardashir is trying to convince everyone that the Treesians and Baracaoans are really evil people based on aforementioned plan. Particularly possible are actions against joint Babkhan-Baracaon citizen Atash Rahmani on charges of treason.2. Babkha has abandoned all its claims and deunrecognized Treesia and Baracao, meaning it is likely Baracao will keep Lighthouse and Treesia keep the Far Reaches.3. Ardashir is likely to undergo trial in some neutral nation for his deletion of Lighthouse. Shireroth originally supported Babkha in its claim to the Far Reaches, but now that that claim has been dropped we have no particular opinion on this whole affair, except that Treesia STILL needs to do something about it having Lac Glacei, which is ours.

Wouldn't it be odd if they asked us to hold the trial? We have a court system. With Nick busy he'd proly pass it to the LAndsraad.. well.. that's looks like jury to me..hehe Erik Mortis BrookshireCommoner of Alexandretta

What court system do you speak of, Erik? Phoenix the Risen - Dutchess of Kildare - Political Nuisance but at least She gets the job done. - Official Genkher of Gryphon Avocatio's Cool Short Sig and Gryphon the Pure's Awesome Tables! - COME BACK, STEVE!!! -"To quote a former Kaiser.... 'Shireroth doesn't give up land....'" ~UEC (Quoting Kaiser Letifer I), In response to claims on the Raynor Isles"To paraphrase a former Kaiser: 'Here! Take Amity for free! And that other half of Mar Sara too!'" ~SaiKar LumEth, (Paraphrasing Kaiser Mog I) In response to UEC"To paraphrase a former angry mob "DOWN WITH THE EVIL LAND-GIVING AWAY KAISER! REVOLT! REBELLION! CIVIL WAR!" ~Scott Siskind, (paraphrasing the Letifer Rebellion group) In response to SaiKar LumEth"I HEARBY QUESTION THE KAISERESS AUTHORITY!" ~Gryphon Avocado (Switching Day)

The one where Erik is the judge, of course kidding!D -->D">

Wasn't anything back there negated when Erik decreed the lawbook?

pub9.ezboard.com/fshirero...D=41.topicOkay...this is really loosely worded and kinda worthless because it never got formed.However I like the basic Idea behind it...and I believe that there was talk about Making a serious concil of elders...hmmm *start's plotting* Wylþeow du GrifosThe Kaiser of ShirerothThe gods blessed you with power and a visionThe gods gave you life to accomplish a mission...

I have no objection to being tried in Shireroth, having only narrowly missed out on the pleasure once before.

Why not just try him in Babkha where the judicial system has a very high reputation for its impartiality and professionalism? The only other such nation would be Ascalon, but I'm not sure if they'd deal with intermicronational trials.

Ardashir has redeemed himself in my book.Hail the Babkhan pig-dog! Now it's time to kick out the jams, motherfucker!

try him in northworthy! "Disclaimer: Whatever is in the above post is probably a result of my blind following of Kieran Bennett, because I have even less of a brain than Kieran. Don't even get me started on my lack of independent thought."

Yes.. but we're friends with both nations.. so that.. kinda makes us nuetral.....doesn't it? Erik Mortis BrookshireCommoner of Alexandretta

Actually, last time I looked, Baracao and us were on pretty bad terms...

It would probably be more accurate to say Shireroth and baracao are on no terms whatsoever And so we lay,We lay in the same grave,Our chemical wedding day...

Must we try him at all? If we do, the Babkhan judicial system has a great reputation. I'm sure that we could try him there if he has to have a trial.

Basicly I made a comment about their forums looking bad when they reformed...and they started throwing insults at us...not just about the aesthetics of our board...so i decided not to recognise the newly reformed baracao.if the babkhan's have a fair and impartial system, I see no problem with trying him there since we don't really have a coherent judicial system...and we aren't on good terms with baracao.

I'll inform the Shah of that.

Now I am earning character endorsements from Philip Locke

And I complimented a Babkhan. And a bastardly Babkhan, at that!Are these the End Times? Now it's time to kick out the jams, motherfucker!

I like the Babkhans.. is that bad? Erik Mortis BrookshireCommoner of Alexandretta

May I point out thata) that law was never written, only suggestedb) that suggestion was never voted on, and thus never passedc) that thread is in the Landsraad Archives, the graveyard of Landsraad billsand d) even if the suggestion had been written as law and actually passed, it still dates before the lawbook, and you yourself, as Kaiser, specifically stated that the lawbook replaces every law ever passed by the Landsraad. Heil Loki!!!
Heil H'Graa!!!
