The Serbs had five
The Egyptians and Tartars had none
The Azande had three
The English two

William Pitt is interupted during his afternoon tea by a midlevel English diplomat.

"Sir, the Azande have approached us to request building rights in North America."
"What? Eastern North America is ours, granted to us by God himself. What specifically do they want?"
"Just one city on the island of New Foundland. They said they need a presence in the north and it will only help us in the long run."
"Hmmm, I wonder what that means..."
"I'm not sure sir, they have a 'presence' nearly everywhere in the world. A nation of small island kingdoms scattered around the globe. Quite puzzling to me sir."
"Yes quite. Though with a city so close to our American mainland, and in truth not far from our European mainland it could prove dangerous for us were relations ever to sour with the Azande. That could be used as a base from which to launch attacks on British soil."
"But sir, the Azande have been our friends for thousands of years, why would they possibly want to attack us?"
"Why would they possibly want a 'presence' in the north?"
"Hmm, good question."
"This offer will require much thought..."
"What is that noise? Oh God..."

The army and the navy met to discuss their goals for the next year.

The army yeilds to listen to the prosoals of the navy. Please give us your suggestions for military targets.

The navy suggests the following:

* Defend San Francisco
* Colonize Celebes
* Colonize Sumatra

The army disagrees with a few of your proposals. We have made 3 plans of attack, which one would you like to hear?:

* Defend San Francisco
* Attack Kosovo
* Attack New Guniene

* Defend San Francisco
* Attack Kosovo
* Colonize Celebes

* Defend San Francisco
* Colonize Celebes
* Attack Aztecia

We understand that these plans would not be carried out unless an offical declaration of war is made against us, however with the enemy posturing at our gates, we must assume his intentions are not peaceful.

Very well, we will listen to your 3rd plan...

==========================
Disaster Strikes the Colonies

The colonies are in turmoil with what appears to be an outbreak of revolution. Fighters from the rogue terrorist outfit the Sons of Liberty have taken arms against the King in a series of battles in the colonies. After years of rabblerousing by this terrorist organization, their poisonous propaganda has inflicted colonies at all levels. The King has dispatched British riflemen to the colonies to put down this pathetic rebellion.

Chief advisor William Pitt could not be reached for a comment, but this paper is certain the government will have the situation under control in short order. Loyal British subjects in Williamville and Quebec have expelled the rebels from their midst. Great victories against terrorism.

==========================
Tax Evasion

Terrorist activity has increased over the last few years. Many colonists were encouraged to stop paying their taxes. Clearly it is selfish greed motivating these rebel groups, despite the many rich plantation owners and aristrocrats behind this movement their greed is such they refuse to pay into the common good through taxes. The common man in Britain and the kingdom suffer through their selfish greed.

==========================
New York Tea Attack

In protest of their taxpaying civic duty Sons of Liberty terrorists assaulted a trading vessel in the New York harbor. After an unpatriotic boycott of British tea the terrorists threw the ship's cargo of tea into the water. This violent act resulted in property damage of many thousands of gold, and the ships crew were injured during the take over. Over 50 members of the outlawed Sons of Liberty participated, dressing up as Indians to disguise their identity.

==========================
Guerilla Attack in Lexington & Concord

In response to the Tea attack, the British garrison instituted a curfew and strict gun control laws to protect the safety of the New York people. Good sources indicate the Sons of Liberty were building caches of arms. Without registering or licencing these weapons the public is put at risk of misuse of these dangerous weapons. Reports indicate even children as young as 8 have handled and used these firearms.

The danger to public health and threat of future attacks forced the hand of British authorities who moved in on a rumored stockpile of arms in the New England town of Lexington. The radical gun nuts in the area resisted, and assembled a ragtag guerilla group to assault the British officers. It is assumed the guerillas were tipped off ahead of time by a local printer named Paul Revere. He is currently being held for questioning. There was loss of life on both sides in the ensueing conflict. Not wanting any more unnecessary loss of life, the British traveled back to New York to wait for more reinforcements. The dangerous hoodlums are still at large in the countryside, still armed.

==========================
Young Ruffians Assault Soldiers

Outside of a New York barracks, local troublemakers started a conflict with British troops garrisoned there. Two lads resisted arrest after commiting the crime of disrespecting a police officer. They ran away and other youth from the area arrived who assaulted the British troops. A crowd assembled who began to throw objects at the troops. Colonist rabblerousers claim they were just snowballs, but fearing rocks and chunks of ice the soldiers had no choice but to open fire in self-defense. Six colonists were killed including three youth and an Azande man named Crispus Attucks.

Awaiting the Azadine and Azande signatures

Everything was in slow motion. There was soft graceful movement, the tapping of drums, colourful whirls of particles gliding through the air. It was beautiful.

Lizard was a proud leader. Her destiny, however, was being written by the actions of others. At first she sensed an odour, then a form was being shaped in the dust and smoke that was swirling around the great hall in Upper Azande.

The form was only visible to Lizard. Everyone else was off the planet. It became the shape of a tall man cloaked in dark garments. She discerned a sinister voice:

"Beware, the Egyptians will attack you soon with mighty forces given by others. Azande must build strong defences and prepare for the assault. From the North I can help you... stay in my dreams... be my lizard pet...

I am not here. I do not exist."

She felt sad at the latest intelligence. Out of genuinely good motives did come mistrust and suspicion by her long time friends. She sensed the spell of the North had befallen her English allies.

She cried such tears that it was said a great storm did stir in far off lands...

[Rasputin]

The Egyptians were very concerned with rumours of war, and lies being spread. Strangely theLizard had rejected their treaty. What did this mean ? Only time would tell.......
