Subject: Formal Declaration of War

It was not our intent for this matter to escalate to the point of war, but America's aggression toward us and to our Russian allies can no longer be tolerated. From the beginning America seemed hell bent on war, so we are left with no choice.

India declares war on America.

Incidentally, your daugher Shirley is here in Delhi. She will be treated well but will be held indefinitely.

Good day, sir.

Chandragupta Maurya
King of India

Lamentation for those who will die

Where is the warmth of the body of the boy?
Where is the sound of his voice?
Where is strength and the power of his joy?
He died for his people and he had no choise

Where is the wisdom of the kings in this world?
Where is their glory and their pride?
Where is the hope from the wisdom they once told?
Did it vanish in the changing of the tide?

Why is the fool taking place on the throne
That once belonged to better men and kings?
When did madness take the flesh and the bone
And did Russia forget the wisdom of all things?

Why do the Indians, once proud and just and right
Now follow russia as a puppet state
For whom it speaks and fights?
Is it too late?

It's summer and the sun shines bright
though darkness falls upon us now
The warmt we feel is the coldness of the night
O cruel deeds of the sword and the bow

Where is the pride and the friendship of old days?
Where are the greetings and the joy?
They have gone like rain in a summer afternoon
Like an old man who had to die at his time
It has gone as the smile on the face of the death
And I fear that it never again will be mine

The young will die and the fools will live
For it is foolness that has taken the heart of the wise
Who will live when the civilized have fallen into barbarism?
Hail the death, for they gave their lives for a better world.

How did it come so far?
It is time......


America asks support from all its allies to counter the aggression from the Indian-Russian alliance against the free people in this world.
Let this darkness not fall upon us, for we may be the first who will fall, but we will certainly not be the last.

I, Robert LXVII call upon the citizen of Russia, release yourself from the Murderer Tsar!
Revolt against him who murdered your fathers and your unborn childs, who were unprotected behind the bellies of their mothers, when swords cutted them in pieces.
Please, revolt against the dictator in Moscow, and we will come to help you! Release yourself an be free!

I, Robert, call upon the King of India once again, release yourself from this madness. Show the wisdom and the glory that now has been hidden behind your madness. You are not a puppet of the Russians, are you? You are not a murderer, like Ivan the Murdere Tsar, You are not like him.

Or are you?
Why do the fools live and the just die?

Robert LXVII
King of the Americans

King Chandragupta proposes that the English and Germans stop whining about how little land they have. All in favor?

The English and Germans have toiled hard to seek out and settle new lands.

No more whinging from us, but no thanks to India who would see us spill each others blood rather than live in peace.

Your actions of late are of great concern to us.

Your involvement in the matter concerning my succession is an insult to the German people. We govern ourselves, free from influence from any nation. I will chose my successor prior to my passing. That you would support a fringe faction over the rightful heirs lends suspicion to your motives.

Furthermore, Germany protests the constant espionage conducted by Indian intelligence in our capital. If this continues grave measures must be taken.

Finally and most importantly, your war upon America is simply unacceptable. Withdraw this unsound declaration or Germany will be forced to act. Germany will in no way stand by and watch the Russian Empire continue this aggression. India still has the possibility to act wisely and withdraw support from the warmongering Tsar who even India's ruler himself has openly declared rash and unwise. War is not necessary to solve this ridiculous nameslinging conflict. Germany knows all too well that little good comes of war, but we will if necessary support America in this falsely grounded expansionist war.

Our armies will march at first light to defend Americas cities. Any attacks on America will be attacking Germany as well.

Strength and Honour!

From: Chandragupta Maurya
To: Gustaf Ruler of Germans

My esteemed colleague and neighbor to my south, it seems American propaganda has been more effective than we suspected it would be. By no means is this an expansionist war, and the only warmongering has been on the part of America.

After many years of forcing their missionaries through our lands and the lands of our Russian ally, we finally said enough. We informed America that their missionaries were no longer welcome in our lands. Instead of respecting our borders and our soveriegnty, they immediately grew belligerant and began talking of war.

The worst outcome we expected was a closing of borders to keep out the American missionaries if they refused to comply. After much diplomacy they have not only refused to comply with our simple request, they have called for the murder of our friend and ally, Tsar Ivan III of Russia.

I am unsure how things opperate in Germany, but here in India publically calling for the death of a fellow ruler and threatening overtly to invade is not to be taken lightly.

India and Russia sought merely to protect our borders from incursions of American religious extremists and they, in their greed and arrogance, have pushed us to war.

In light of our historically close relationship, I urge Germany to join our side in this conflict or at the very least to remain neutral. Who was it that modernized Germany by helping your father Konrad with a generous tech exchange? Who was it that stood by you in your time of national crisis when you were dealing with a hostile, expansionist England?

Well now India is dealing with a hostile, expansionist America. Please don't turn your back on our centuries of friendly relations.

Chandragupta Maurya
King of India

"As I was trying to explain sir", continued the Foreign Affairs Minister, "the situation in the south is critical. The Indian-Russian allegiance and the American people are at each other’s throats. We are afraid that it’s too late for a diplomatic solution, as war has already been declared."

"Are they fighting already?"

"Not yet sir, but it is imminent."

"What of the other countries? What do they say?"

"So far only Germany has officially backed the Americans. They say any aggression on America will be an aggression on them. Looks like they are siding with the Americans. Unconfirmed reports indicate that the English, Spain and Chinese would remain neutral."

"That was a very aggressive move on the part of our neighbor. Start preparing an official declaration to our Russian neighbors. Why must all issues be solved with wars in this world? We just got over the English-German conflict, and now this."

"What will we do about the Spanish, sir?"

"Tell them we wish no conflict with them. Apparently they are in dire need for horses, otherwise I don't understand why they would establish themselves so near to our borders. Tell them that if those horses should wonder into our territories, we'd have no problems to share them with them. Try to set up some kind of deal regarding further Inca settlements to the west. The last thing we need is another warmongering neighbor."

Chandragupta Maurya

So sad
Never saw this coming, how the mighty have fallen......
No word about the many messages I have send to ask, even beg, for peace.
No word about my promises to not send any missionaries to India and Russia. Something the americans have never done before.

Even the missionary that was heading towards to the mongols didn't walk through Indian territory, as clearly can seen on the drawing the indians posted.

like I said, how have the mighty fallen
I still would seek peace, rather then war. Though I cannot let the surpression of the Jews in Russia continue.
Nor the indians nor the russians have responded on this issue. I still am waiting for it, Chandragupta, but apprantly you have no problems with the murdering on jewish children.

Sad

Apparently America has no problem murdering Russian Tzars and attempting to take over countries through civil war and mass violence.

Murdering the Tsar is a good Russian tradition, I just want to keep it alive.
It's quiet amazing that you still do not reply on the issue of the persecution of the jews in Russia, and the murdering if many many innocent children and women.

Like I have said before, I do not seed new territory in Russia, I seek freedom for the jews in Russia, and in fact peace for all civilians in Russia. Are you against that?

Once again I will say: Justice will be done upon the Murderer Tsar, for his actions cannot be tolerated.

You apparantly have a problem with that.
Most obviously because you are like him. Can you tell us again how your uncle died?

Robert LXVII
King of the Americans

[OzzyKP]

You seek to make Russia your slave. You seek to disrupt her rightful rulers and place corrupt Zionists on the throne. You seek to kill and destroy any in your path. Your lust for blood and power is obvious.

Now you seek to spread your cancer to the Mongols and continue to inflame the situation in the north country. After civil war and massacres by your Zionist ilk in Russia, I wonder how much the Inca or English appreciate having more Zionists on their borders? Especially in a leader with a proven track record of aggression in Khan. Your Zionist troublemakers will surely only provoke additional conflict.

So committed are you to world domination through the spread of your Zionist poison that you choose war with Russia and India rather than stop your aggressive missionary activity. Your ambition for power knows no civility or restraint.

America is a nation of liars and despots. India for one will not roll over and let America enforce its will on our peaceful neighbors. Someone has to stand up to hostile powers like America. If doing the right thing and protecting justice requires warfare than so be it. India will not stand aside and allow America to continue to disrupt the world through its Zionist agenda.

Chandragupta Maurya
King of India

[KunojiLym]

To: Robert LXVII of America

His Glorious Excellency, Tsar Ivan III, no longer sees it fit to respond personally to your inflammatory messages, so it falls upon me to frame a response.

Apparently you choose to neglect the fact that it was the murder of the late Nicholas the Great by the Zionists that provoked his sucessor's response. You also choose to neglect the fact that immeadiatedly afterwards, and for a long time following, the Zionists were actively disrupting the daily routine of Mother Russia. If we were in any way supressing the Jews in our empire, it was in direct response to these attacks upon our body politic. The way in which you selectively process information is truely amazing, and no Russian, myself included, can stand for a foreign devil making light of our troubles.

You have much to answer for, sir.

Emelian Pugachev
Chief Advisor to His Most Wondrous Excellency, Tsar of the Russian Empire, Ivan III

[Robert]

And again Chandragupta is succesfull in speaking without speaking on the issue of the Jewish persecution.

Enough words have been spilled.
Blood will have to be spilled
I will pray for a new morning for India and Russia, with noble and fair leaders, like they used to have in the past.

Once again I claim, I do not seek the throne of Russia and India. All I am looking for is peace.

[OzzyKP]

Who said anything about you seeking the throne of India?

Our people have a joke they tell, it goes something like this:

A man walks into a temple and is greeted by the guru there. "Welcome stranger to our temple," the guru says.

To which the man blurts out, "I didn't kill my mother!"

"What?" asks the guru, "I didn't ask you about your mother."

"Even so! I didn't kill her!"

Such a denial in the face of no accusations is taken as an admission of guilt here in India. Perhaps America has a guilty conscious and allows hidden agendas to slip through.

Your motivations are made clearer and clearer each day.

Chandragupta Maurya
King of India

[Robert]

Who said anything about you seeking the throne of India?

I never said anything about the throne of Russia either, though you accused me of longing for that throne as well. So I made it clear, eventhough I apparantly are in war right now with both India and Russia, I do not seek to sit upon their thrones. I seek peace for both the Indians and the Russians, and for all the free people in this world.

Clever, that you come with jokes of your people.
Too bad that you apparantly do not care about the faith of the jewish people in Russia.

[The Capo]

Madrid, Spain...

The King couldn't believe what he was reading, the Madrid Monitor had run an editorial written by Isidor Bainor de Castilla, the son of King Bainor de Castilla. El Cid read the article at least four times before calmly placing it on the table and summoning his top advisor, Foreign Minister Bartolo Calderon de Cordoba, and telling him to bring Isidor to his court at once.

Seville...

Isidor finally arrived at the small hut in the village of Seville. It was a rainy afternoon, and the overcast had already darkened the day. He knocked twice, quite hard, on the door; he was brutally hungover from the previous night's drinking.

An old man approached the door, "What do you want!?!" he growled.

"Yes, my name is Isidor de Castilla, I am looking for a man named Alfonso?" Isidor asked the old man.

"Get in here!" the old man said as he quickly pulled Isidor into his home "Were you followed?"

"No, I don't think so." Isidor said, he was quite used to anonymity after being exiled from Madrid for nearly his entire life, in one of El Cid's acts of clemency Isidor was allowed to return to Madrid, but hadn't at this point.

"Listen, you are here to reclaim your royal heritage." the old man coughed as he searched for a seat.

"Wow, that's all?" Isidor said, "I knew this was a waste of my time, good day sir." he said as he prepared to leave.

"No listen to me you little sh*t! I am your uncle, and you will listen to what I have to say." the old man said as he pulled Isidor into his view.

"You must be joking old man! I am a nobleman! You are an old beggar of some sort, I don't know, it isn't important, I am leaving."

"Look at my ring you idiot!" the old man said, thrusting his fist into Isidor's view, he was right though; he wore the family ring.

"Amazing." Isidor said, he was used to being the last of Bainor's line. He had a daughter now, but his wife had died in childbirth and he had no interest in remarriage. He had no male heir. "So you, you, well, are there any others?" He could hardly speak.

"No, you are the last, you and your daughter Isabella. We must reclaim the throne, you don't understand, there is a big war brewing and Spain must be properly ruled to reap the benefits!" the old man explained.

"Sir, you are crazy, I know we have a proud history, but to challenge El Cid is insanity. He does well as King, he includes everyone, in fact I have been personally summoned to Madrid by order of the King," Isidor had foolishly thought the letter to be a good thing "I would never do anything to harm Rodrigo, he is a great man for Spain."

"You will change your tune boy!" the old man said as Isidor left...

Days Later, Back in Madrid...

El Cid had a strange warped sense of consensus. He wasn't particularly tyrannical, but he felt if he spoke to everyone he had to speak to in front of everyone else he had to speak to somehow they would all learn to respect one another and to make sure they didn't screw him over; nobody liked it, but nobody complained. So in his normal manner had had gathered everyone who had appointments with him in his chambers at the same time, part of the reason was to prevent people lying to him, because often the person they were lying about was in the room as well.

Isidor didn't understand what was going on, but didn't care much, and he was first in line. "My Lord, the house of Castilla hails such a gloriou-" he was quickly interrupted.

"Silence!" El Cid said as he threw the copy of the Madrid Monitor on the floor at Isidor's feet "The Madrid Monitor, there was an article in there entitled, I believe it was 'don't believe what you hear' written by you, Isidor Bainor de Castilla."

Isidor was confused "What was wrong with it sire?"

El Cid couldn't believe his ears this time "Isidor, please, I know you've been exiled from Madrid for quite some time now. But you must know that there is a war fomenting to our south between the Russians and the Americans. Now the Indians and Germans have involved themselves. We don't know what else is going on, but it strangely resembles a scenario you are outlining in your article. The one where you refered to the Jewish countries of the south as 'barbarians.' We can not allow this to occur" the King paused "Now I have been able to convince myself that this article has more to do with your stupidity than your position towards me, but then I remembered the fact that you refered to me as the man who killed your father Bainor."

"Sire, please, I was drunk. I've been drinking a lot in my spare time I apologize." Isidor was sweating, he knew for sure this would be his last day on Terra. "But it was just an article sir, I didn't mean for it to-"

"No! You listen to me you pathetic little prole!" the King barked "I AM THE KING OF SPAIN! You are a member of the nobility, you answer to me, and you do as I say, do you understand this?" El Cid was a frightening man when he was angered, and Isidor was nowhere near the bravest of men, in fact his cowardice was nearly legendary in the frontier, particularly in Toledo.

"Y-yes s-sire, I understand." Isidor was cowering, but El Cid's method worked; everyone else in the room was scared sh*tless.

"Now then, I've already ordered a special edition of the paper to be printed. You of course will have nothing to do with this. In the mean-time you will stay here in Madrid and raise your daughter Isabella properly, she is a potential candidate for a marriate with China and I want her to be raised as a proper noble-woman worthy of Spain, do you understand me?" Isidor simply nodded "Wonderful, now get away from my sight at once!"

An armed guard escorted Isidor out of the chamber, he was entirely relieved...
