History of the World 4.0 - The Saga Continues

[deity]

A match in Madras

Had a routine inspection of Madras sparked World War?

LizardTongue was rubbing his scales with glee, for in a previous life he was Morant. His time was coming again. The powder keg had been lit on this planet and he knew he had to strike quick and fast. His only problem was Lizard. He had majority support amongst most of the senior politicians in Azande but Lizard's power was more than political. She had a trance like hold on the people. It would be a struggle.

LizardTongue was a war visionary. His computer like brain was sifting through the variables...

---

"USB = militarily and politically strong; logistically distant; tech stealers; aggressive military posture; Serb influenced; former long time ally - but a nasty enemy to be;

Serbs = politically very strong; militarily modest; overtly honoured the Treaty of Budva and overtly espouses peace but a devious manipulating breed that can never be trusted - a useful diplmatic tool;

Egypt = fundamentally ally quality and African brethren; maverick politics and flambouant leaders plagued the relationship; the technical state of war with Egypt was dangerous and needs rectification; Egypt militarily strong and brave if foolish;

India = high tech state; currently the only Azande ally but in name only, having tricked Azande out of techs; proven war monger requiring little prompting to conquer the world - a dangerous potential foe;

China = militarily and politically strong; logistically distant; origin of Azande Trade Ban; threatening posture over Azande Pacific holdings - dangerous potential enemy;

Tartars = history..."

---

LizardTongue's mind clicked over, like the wheels in a poker machine... most likely to attack Azande = USB, then China. These two nations had amassed huge armies. Then, India was dangerous, even though technically an ally. Followed by Serbs and Egypt.

The computations were complex, but here was surely an Azande war-monger intent on major global ambitions.

---

How much did Lizard know of these devious plans within plans?

I'm afraid USB cannot allow that. We cannot sit idly by and watch our friend the Egyptians get carved up by an aggressive, warmonger India. A peacetreaty acceptable by both sides will be signed. At gun point if necessary.

The Tartars were guilty of untold numbers of terrorist plots and attacks, and thus deserve the fate that has befallen them. Plus rule by others only serves the interests of the leaderless, anarchist Tartardom. Egypt however is not in this situation and a further crippling of their empire is simply unacceptable to USB interests.

I call upon the remainder of the Northern Alliance to put pressure upon India to sign an acceptable peace treaty for resolution of this conflict. I call upon our one-time friends, the Azande to put pressure on their supposed ally the Indians to do the same.

We call on our northern friends for a full invasion to return what is rightfully ours.....

Letter to the Azende Foreign Minister

I am growing concearned with your lack of communication reguarding our last dialog. The apparent lack of Azande willingness to negoiate for the colonies in the central pacific ocean are only adding fuel to the fire of those who make the case that the purpose of these colonies are purely offensive. The military command panel of the CNG has given me an ultimatum to reach a deal with your government, or break off relations. I urge you to take this opportunity to avoid a major conflict with the CNG. Our forces are prepared for any circumstance.

[Frank Johnson]

Operation East, Wind, Rain

Top Secret: CNG unit commanders, Allied general staff

Operation: East Wind Rain

Negoiation efforts with the Azande appear to be failing. Talks have not even reached a serious stage. Given the high likelyhood of Azande refusal of our demands, the current operation is to be put underway.

Operation Goals:

Primary Targets: Azande Capital Ships, Dreadnoughts, Battleships, and Support Craft, with priority given to the destruction of troop carrying ships.
Land Operations:
Destroy Azande military installations in the Central Pacific Ocean. Recon operations will be followed with bombardment from the Superdreadnoughts, and finally an assault of the islands themselves. Battlecruisers and submarines will establish a protected area in which for the task force to operate.

World Goals for Operation:
Chinese naval dominance of the PTO.
European occupation of Azande Central American colonies.
Serbian Rearmament, and return of Asia Minor to Serbia.
Destruction of Azande merchant marine, which is the only force capable of bringing their force outside of the African Continent.

[Rasputin]

The Egyptians note with mock interest the Chinese secret dopcument that was leaked into their hands. Not one mention of Egypt at all. They plan to attack Azande and take provinces for themsleves and and the USB and Serbia were to get provinces too. Yet not one word of support for Egypt in its battles.

If our allies are allied to this type of "friend" then we would ask them to apply political pressure on china to exert her influence on India and to pursue goals in asia first, then take Pacific actions later.

Once again the Egyptians see double crossing in the wind...

Chinese TAKEAWAY anyone !!!!!!

Re: Open letter to the Azande Government

It is the position of the Nationalist Chinese Government that the Azande colonies present in the Central Pacific Ocean represent a military threat to the Chinese heartland and the entire Pacific Rim. Our government also notes that the possesion of these colonies, as well as the stationing of naval forces in and around such colonies is contrary to the stated Azande goal of peaceful development of spacefaring technologies. Our government can take no position other than these colonies are intentionally located as strategic ports aimed against our interests, in order to launch military campaigns into the heart of the NCG.

In order to counter this threat, the CNG has set an impending deadline, for the elimination of the threat these colonies pose before pre-emptive military action begins in the P.T.O.

It is my duty as CNG foreign minister to the Azende to communicate the following offer in the interests of continued Azande-CNG peace, which should remain consistant with Azande goals of continued peaceful world relations and continued scientific research.

The CNG requires that the colonies of Jilo and Haway be immediately demilitarized, and turned over to an occupying force of Imperial Chinese Marines led by Admiral Yamamoto. Azande navy forces will be allowed to withdraw to Panama and must exist the Pacific Ocean immediately. Property rights of the inhabitants of both colonies will be respected. The colonies will take their proper role in our sphere of influance as CNG dependances. In exchange for the peaceful transfer, the CNG offers 800 gold payable immediately upon transfer of military control of the region.

I sumbit this proposal for you to review. I must remind you of the results of failure on our parts to reach a compromise. While I cannot speak for the CNG military command, the failure of these talks will most likely bring about the instigation of hostilities between the Chinese Nationalist Government and the Azande. We await your prompt correspondance.

Lizard felt beseiged on all sides.

She drafted an official response to the Chinese:

"Whilst we understand that the presence of these island colnies could represent a military threat to China I would like to assure you that in fact they do NOT represent any threat whatsoever. Azande would be happy to post internal city maps of both these cities for your consideration, to re-assure you that there is no major military presence. Upon reviewing these maps I would be interested to know if there are any units present that disturb you? WE know that you seek peace and if assured of our peaceful intentions you will likewise maintain a healthy dialog and relationship with the Azandes. Your reply is eagerly awaited."

Lizard rushed it off quickly as her young child was crying in the next room. Lidless had been a problematic child torn between the compassion and kindness of his mother and the aggression of his father - LizardTongue. His time may come and chaos may be his playground.

Lizard calmed her child and thougt over the Chinese offer, or was it a threat? Clearly it was. Maybe she should consider a higher price or settle the Chinese nerves by just selling Jilo? She had to think hard if she was going to stop her LizardTongue partner from warring with all nations on the planet simultaneously. The USB/Serb/China pact it seems was luring ghim into this trap and her misguided forum in The Great all were backing him.

She had to turn to the people.

[Berzerker]

proven war monger

Ahem... Indian people resent being characterised in such a demeaning manner...by our "ally" no less. We were attacked, will the Azande accept the insidious label of war monger should they have the audacity to defend themselves when attacked? I think not!!!

all egyptian citys, not the tartars ones !!!!

We are requesting all pre tartar invasion citys be returned

Hear ye, Pharaoh, Indian people will not return the cities responsible for Egyptian aggression just so they can once again launch another sneak attack, and the Indian people have no interest in keeping backwood hell holes once belonging to the Tartar people. What you ask is that no one hold you accountable for your aggression, clearly the world shows it's reluctance to hold you diplomatically accountable, but the Indian people will not let you escape responsibility for your betrayal.

Our offer was reasonable, the return of all Egyptian cities except 3, those cities used by Egypt to launch the attack, and $750 as reparations. But we will make our offer even more generous, India will return all cities except for Buffalo and the Tigris and Euphrates Delta city (a total of 4 cities will be returned including the Holy Lands - India had to build a city to facilitate our counter-attack). India still demands monetary reparations of $750. We are willing to listen to Egyptian proposal for a payment schedule sine we don't expect the Egyptians to have the entire payment in their current treasury.

World Leaders, listen to India:

Will you let the Egyptians launch sneak attacks and not hold them responsible? We ask for the League of Nations to vote on this matter, if no vote is forthcoming and Egyptians resume their attack, the Indian people will have no other choice than to continue the war.

It was your choice my friend! Lizard appealed for India to utilise diplomatic channels once India recovered it's lost cities (2 only I think); but India chose to ignore these appeals and rocketed into full scale invasion mode that has now changed the face of the planet! Egypt did not launch a civ crippling first strike but simply a nasty WOMD incursion that went wrong, and now they have paid a heavy price. Azande recognise that Egyptian tactics were not correct but India has now proven her menace to the world. It is with regret Azande must cancel her alliance with India. If India wishes to avoid war with Azande Lizard will be posting her requirements. If LizardTongue takes the helm, all bets are off. I urge you to negotiate with Lizard before the Tongue pops out...

[Rasputin]

once again the indians make claims for vast territorys..

the egyptians soley popped ia few military experienced technicinas into two suspected areas of mass weopn development, one in asia and one in America. we did this t o protect our allies to the north and the rest of the world in general.

We could have taken many more citys if that wa our aim and we did not. India then used their WOMD to conquer half of the egyptian terrortories.

If the world allows this kind of action then the world opens it self to the use of bigger longer range WOMD. Egypt will utilise whatever it can to protect it self.

WE have the technology yet have not used it. We will however use the technology now to protect ourselves.

Many lvies will be lsot in this bloodshed, and yet Serbia keeps harping opn about a league of antions which id worthless, INdia will only listen when they are brough tto their kneees. once their powerhouse of mass pollution is brought under control.

The pollution we saw in Madras during our inspoecions shocked even our most hardeend campaigners. They are abusing the environment in every way possible.

This is our last call for our allies to come join the Coalition of the willing of forever remain dilent and begone from Egyptian memories,

This is our darkest hour and the worlds greatest needs for unification are here. Decide now oh world poweres on whic hside you stand.

You either join Egypt in regaining its rightrful land territroy or you are agaisnt us.

There is no middle ground.

If Azande turned a small border dispute into a full scale nation crippling invasion Lizard would be happy to labelled a war monger

A border dispute? Egypt captured one of India's most important cities - Madras - and you call that a border dispute? And India has crippled Egypt? Hardly, there were no city improvements in any of the backwaters taken by India; in fact, the Indian people were stunned by the primitive state of these cities backed up by only weapons. And now that India has sufficiently retaliated and is willing to return most of what was gained by our counter-attack, we're told we are the war monger?

It was your choice my friend! Lizard appealed for India to utilise diplomatic channels once India recovered it's lost cities (2 only I think); but India chose to ignore these appeals and rocketed into full scale invasion mode that has now changed the face of the planet!

India received no such advice from an ally who wouldn't even condemn the sneak attack, of course, I muted all the chattering naybobs who complained it was too late for me to finish my turn. Having muted the chatter so I could finish my turn faster, I'm lectured about advice I never got. Next time I inform nations I will be muting them so I can finish my turn faster, use ICQ for such "advice". Your advice literally fell on deaf ears...

Egypt did not launch a civ crippling first strike but simply a nasty WOMD incursion that went wrong, and now they have paid a heavy price. Azande recognise that Egyptian tactics were not correct but India has now proven her menace to the world.

Yes, India NOW has 1/2 the forces of 3 other nations and only recently (because of the sneak attack) gained parity with the Egyptian invaders and the nation with +130 units feigns concern over India.

It is with regret Azande must cancel her alliance with India. If India wishes to avoid war with Azande Lizard will be posting her requirements. If LizardTongue takes the helm, all bets are off. I urge you to negotiate with Lizard before the Tongue pops out...

So be it, the Azande wish to hide on her dark continent and leave allies to fend for themselves. But should you venture off your lands to launch a sneak attack on the Indian people, we will aid any nation that declares war on you and we will attack for as long as we live. We can only view Azande behavior as an endorsement of Egypt's treason.

If you think the Indian people are war-like now, I'm trying to quit smoking, Mountain Dew, and nasal spray all at once, so I won't be getting friendlier in the near future

The Great Raz Returns

The Great Raz looked down on the situation in Asia and laughed, petty squabbles he thought, so meaningless.

He heard Emporer Muhummed ALi praying, asking what answer to give the Heathen Indians.

The Great Raz answered Emporer Ali and told him HE personally would give a sign to the Indians

And so it came to pass that the following sign in the heavesn did appear above ervery Indina city all over the world simultaneualy.
