To all the ambassadors of the other teams...!

it is great to see you here and its nice to meet you.. but actually we dont have ambassadors at the moment and i also think it is a bit early let us wait some hundred years until we all are more than a group of apes without any history

France won a battle? When?

Some Napoleon guy tended to win a lot of battles, until he tried to conquor some country called Russia...

France did, believe it or not, win a few battles...once or twice...it did happen...really...

Senor Borc, I understand the quandary. Firstly, Writing does not exist in any way, shape, or form, though I am sure certain civilizations shall soon have their hands on it's secrets. Secondly, none of us have actually encountered each other...officially, have we? The world is seperated, so it seems, still in the cradles of mankind.

And yet, I cannot stress to you the benefits of forming early on a substantial friendship, as I feel we of Spain shall have with your people of Arabia. I know that whatever the future holds for the rest of civilization, we two countries shall be as blood brothers.

Unless you count the pansy Crimean War in the 1850s, Nappy, or winning both world wars through a 'technicality' (being on the right side), then that's rather difficult.

Hey how do you say merry christmas in german?

[Jon Shafer]

Frohe Weihnachten.

I request at least a little advice here. Who is Neu Demogyptica's ambassador to the Roleplay Team? At least tell me his name so as I may be able to contact to him diplomatically. I have my duty to be done, and I cannot go back to Madrid without at least telling them that we have an ambassador to speak to.

Awaiting your word.

Ambassador from Spain

Hello ...

... people from Spain!

I just read your post and i'm pleased to hear about your friendly greeting!

I'm not the ambassador but i'm a citizen of Neu Demogyptica!

I wasn't talking to Borc so far, but i've got a notion that all our citizen would embrace the friendship to spain!

I've always found that interesting, whenever France needs to prove they can fight a war the only person or anything they use is Napoleon.

So in its entire history only one Frenchman was able to fight/win a battle?

Only one.

[Jon Shafer]

Well, there was the Hundred Years War, but they were losing during nearly all of that (and probably should have lost the whole thing, if it weren't for Joan of Arc). There's the 30 Years War, in which set France as the dominant power in Europe for a while, until getting spanked by England. And there's the American Revolution, in which France actually came out on top over Britain with the US, but normally people don't think of French victory for that conflict. The reason people always bring Napoleon up is because he's the antithesis of all that is France since him... kind of like Germany now compared to what it was 55 years ago and any time before that...

@ Ghengis


It's a very funny point of view ...
Perhaps there will be one of the many Luis too!

But i think he was a bigger emperor in his own Bed as on the battlefield ...

[GhengisFarbâ„¢]

Seriously though. I don't think there is such a thing as French people. France was named after the Franks who were Germans. So basically French people are sissy Germans.

Germans are stereotyped as warlike, aggressive, hard-working people and Frenchies are Germans who have lost all their traits.

[Jon Shafer]

If you think about things like that, then that would make all of western Europe 'German' then, excepting Ireland and Scandanavia.
