Cleopatra,


It's a delusion that you can stay neutral while your cities being used for military bases. If you really care about peace you won't let that happen.
You mentioned our invasion against Byzantium in the past and the free passage what was granted to us. You are wrong if you think you were neutral then and Byzantine was fool not taking any action-but that is past, that was them, this is us: we won't accept that kind of "neutrality"

About your personal note: I am not merely a woman, I am a high priestess of the Sha'Tao, the instrument of God with a holy quest to bring his kingdom to this world. My companion is the Faith and God himself.

Empress Shakti

Why Empress Shakti, you can use our cities as military bases as well. Please do so if you like. But, put yourself in Egypt's shoes: I have no military might. I could refuse Byzantium's armies, and then they would attack me. However, if I allow them passage then you attack me. You are bullying a small nation in the bottom three nations of the world with no army about a choice it cannot make. Why would you do such a thing? Why would you put us in that position? We have no power to stop either of your armies.

[India (DoC)]

about a choice it cannot make.

So I see what kind of union ou have with Byzantium.. you have no word in anymore what happens in your country. Tell them to not endanger your cities by putting an invasion force in them.. remove the transports the rest can stay for defending if they wish.

world leaders slow chatting on a forum
Where's the time where world leaders addressed each other in official letters, signed and stamped? The world has changed *sigh*

Report from New India


Indian marines liberated Madras again, since the capital is well secured this time they are to stay and hold Madras.

Most likely they don't have to hold for long. We have reports that almost all persian city in New Russia is in revolt. They can't keep up too much longer.



Meanwhile our citizens are happier than ever, they know that the final victory is near, soon God will free them from their enemies, peace and harmony will rule the world forever.

Question of the day (to see who's paying attention): is Guru Beli'Az a Hairy one or a Heavy one. (and explain why!)

[Russia (DoC)]

He's both, the fat hairy bastard...

[Arabia (DoC)]

Mecca Weekly - Russian Offer

An open letter to Arabian citizens.

Today Saladin received this strange offer from Russia ...

Offer from Russia
Russia kindly offers Arabia terms for Annexation.


As the Arabian leadership has shown itself to be incompetent, cowardly and weak, Russia offers Arabia the opportunity to join the Russian Empire.

The following terms will apply:
1. Baghdad is put under Russian administration
2. Arabia will share foreign policy with Russia
3. Arabia will join the Russian led Entente
4. Russia will aid Arabia in developing technology
5. Russia will aid Arabia in gaining new territory.

This is an offer of aid. A rejection would be most unwise.


King Igor
The Duma

It was very recent they offered us their sword and now they intend to use it on our people and annex us as a offer of aid.

My reply was simple ... balls.

We will not surrender to such tyranny. Our borders are now closed to Russia and our citizens are urged to take up arms to defend our nation.

War is yet again about to land on our shores.

Russia expands the Russo-Ottomanian Entente


Following the creation of an alliance between Ottomania and Russia, King Igor has decided to gloriously offer to expand the alliance named The Entente, to include Arabia. Though initially Arabian leaders have shown reluctance to join the grand undertaking of creating an expanded safe zone, Russian military advisors have been sent to convince the Arabian leadership of the wisdom of safety in numbers. The Arabian people have welcomed the Russians as heroes who will guarantee the safety and future of Arabia. Russia hopes that the leaders of Arabia will listen to its people and willingly join the alliance to further the interests of all people of the west.

Mound City Gazette

Native American Officials Upset Over Egyptian Sun Article

Mound City -- July 24, 1665 -- Today the Native Foreign Ministry joined Greece and Russia in condemning the poor standards and fact checking in the recent Egyptian Sun article claiming to expose a massive world-wide conspiracy.

Speaking on behalf of the Native American Foreign Ministry, communications chief, Runs With Scissors (grandson of respected Sioux business magnate, Dances With Checkbooks) had the following to say about the article: "We are shocked and appalled by the poor reporting responsible for the utter nonsense printed in Egypt. No honest person should trust the news from this source. They allege that Greeks, Persians, Russians, Koreans, Orb, Byzantines, Egyptians, Ottomans, Romans, Arabians, and Incans are all in a massive conspiracy to rule the world? Foolishness. Utter foolishness."

When asked how he could be so sure the report was false, Runs With Scissors had this to say: "Everyone with half a brain knows that our fearless leader, Chief Pontiac is the true person pulling the strings behind the scenes."

By alleging that even the tiny Arabs and Greeks were in on the conspiracy without once mentioning Native America pays a grave insult to our nation. The government is demanding an immediate retraction and admission that it is the Natives who truly run the world.
