Machiavellia Protectorship

[PrinceEdwardI]

Governer-General Trantor leads the column of Machiavellian guards in a procession into Shireroth. The gates of Shireroth stand wide open, decked with flowers, to greet the protectors of the Republic. The soldiers of the cybernation of Machiavellia ride in double file through the gates of Shireroth, as the citizens of the Republic line the streets to applaud.Prince Edward I, known to some as KhanMan, and his right hand man, First Minister Jason R, flank Trantor as the procession winds its way to the town square. When they reach the great publlic forum, Prince Edward I turns to address the gathered people of Shireroth."Friends, neighbors, liberty loving inhabitants of Shireroth, I thank you for your welcome!" *the crowd cheers*"We come to bring renewal to Shireroth. We ride, on the tide of spring, to insure that Shireroth will stand for many years to come. We have ridden far to reach your gates, but, from this day forward, the distance shall be as nothing."*more cheers*"Machiavellia rides to join hands with its brothers and sisters in Shireroth, to proect the Republic from those who would impose outside rule. Henceforth, Shireroth's laws and customs shall be protected eternally, and her borders guarded by brave soldiers of Machiavellia. I give you one of these soldiers, who would shed his very liveblood in defense of the Repulic. I give you, General Trantor!""Friends, neighbors, and my countrymen, I greet you as such for now I am of Shireroth, now and forever. Libertas Infinitas!"*the crowd cheers wildly*

Interesting concept, doubtful execution, unimaginable consequences. Sir IainDuke of Vilnu in the Empire of New Bruges, Knight-Councillor of Vembria in the Barony of Treesia & Fabon,Citizen and Minister of Terra Firma, a state of the Alterian FederationThe world will be saved by Beauty - Dostoevsky

[General Trantor]

I, myself, rather liked it. Lord-Governor-General Trantor Of Shireroth

[PrinceEdwardI]

Yes, Duke Ian, this will have unimaginable consequences. However, faced with either acting to honor a request of a citizen of Shireroth to prevent it's absorbsion into the Rasinate or another land, or turning a deaf ear, I acted.Shireroth is still Shireroth, and that, at least, is a consequence I can live with. As for the rest, sorry, guys, but this nation isn't going to be parcelled up by vultures. Not while Machiavellia is around with Trantor as Protector.-Edward I, Prince of Machiavellia

[Sir Iain de Vembria]

Prince Edward, You may rest assured that I shall simply sit back and watch events unfold with great interest. In anticipation,His Grace the Duke of Vilnu.

[PrinceEdwardI]

If you wish to offer input as to how Shireroth can best be re-established as a vibrant nation, please feel free to do so. General Trantor and myself will welcome any such suggestions from you, or any others.-Edward I, Prince of Machiavellia

[Sir Iain de Vembria]

If I think of anything I shall certainly let you know. My compliments, by the way, to General Trantor on his nom de micronation. :)Cordially,His Grace the Duke of Vilnu.

[PrinceEdwardI]

He sends his best, along with cordial well wishes to Foley, who, I must add, would make a great leader for Shireroth... ;)-Edward I, Prince of Machiavellia
