SheepNESA: SNESA2: Ad Infinitum again

[foolish_icarus]

If you will guarantee that any corporations/organizations will not be nationalized under your control and that any Chinese citizens will be treated either under our own laws or at least equally to your own citizens, we will open up investment and emmigration as soon as your colonization has progressed enough.

[Sheep]

The Republics constituion does not allow for nationalisation of companies unless they are directed towards national security. We wont allow any corporations that threten this security.

However your citizens will be equal in the eyes of our law. We look forward to your support.

[foolish_icarus]

Well, we won't have arms manufacturing plants there, if that's what you mean. We trust individuals would be compensated for any losses. In any case, we are glad to have reached this agreement. We will begin passing the necessary legislation.

China to Italy (SECRET) :

We are very uncomfortable with the unstable and barbaric Persians sitting on our flanks, as we suspect you are also. We would like to have a limited alliance, only in respect to the Persians, to bring about steps to ensure our mutual safety. How does this sound?

To China:
We are only guarding our own claims on Jupiters moons. We are not blocking any moons that you have built colonies on. We are revering one of Jupiters large moons for our alliance, UK, Russia and Canada.

United States projects:
Start designing new Space Carrer Ship, designed to project power throught out the solar system. They will launch special space figthers that can fight in space and in the atomosphere of most moons and planets.
Expected time for design phase to finish, 2 years.
After this construction of both the Space Carrier and Space Fighter will begin after that.

Training of all forces. This training will directly aimed at curbing the growing threat of the United Lunar States and their egarness in the use of weapons of mass destruction. Also training of new Marine Divisions that will pratice a lunar invasion.

[Jack_www]

TO China (Secret):
We find the United Lunar States not only a direct threat to earth but our plans to expand into space. They do not think twice in the use of weapons of mass destruction. This is something the United States takes very seriously and hope that China and the United States can work togather to protect earth from this growing threat.

China to U.S.: Which moon are you "reserving"?

June 2203-
Chinese space engineers have landed on Jupiter’s moon Adrastea (20 km diameter), assembling habitation modules in the interior and adding propulsion and processing equipment.

APril 2204-
The Adrastea Asteroid and Base has been maneuvered into a much closer but still stable orbit to Jupiter. The proximity and velocity differences lead to tidal heating and strong electromagnetic fields which collectors, both interior and exterior, harness for power. The remainder of the as-yet developed space in Adrastea is given over to habitation facilities and docks and storage facilities and the beginnings of a direct-collection conduit that form the basis for the mining activities in Jupiter’s atmosphere. Various gasses for industrial, power generation, and engine fuel purposes are gathered and the surpluses are either shipped directly to the Earth-Luna system or to processing and refining centers at the Chinese Europa bases, of which there are now two that have a total permanent population of over seven thousand. High transportation costs, enormous overhead, and unstable markets keep profits low or nonexistent, but as expansion and refinement of the colonies continues, the activity and revenues are expected to experience dramatic increases.

TO China:
IO are beging reveiwed for possible coloniztion by the United States and her allies.

[foolish_icarus]

China to U.S. (SECRET) :

We have seen no evidence of this on Luna's behalf, still, better safe than sorry. What actions do you recommend? (keeping in mind that everything Luna has done so far indicates a reasonable leadership and we are now commencing in profitiable activities with them.)

In regards to Io; while we think sole colonization of a moon is silly, for the reasons we outlined before, we will respect your wishes as long as you do not make unreasonable territorial claims. You are welcome to put bases on the larger moons we settle as long as they are not military bases or have too much of a military presence.

[Sheep]

To the United States

Further incursions into Luna and pratice of Luna Assualt are viewd with great dismay. We would of thought our common heritage would of meant something. After all we were once Americans. We follow your form of government. All we are doing is seeking to defend our own selves. Your cotinual colonisation of the Solar System is not being prevented, however we will not be prevented from seeking our own expansion.

We will use weapons of mass destruction but only as a last resort. We will not be dicatated to.

[Sheep]

The United Luna States announces that i has begun practice of Earthly invasions in response to the United State's practice of Luna invasions. This will cease once the US's policy ceases.

La Stampa
Giovanni del Vino proclaimed new Emperor

After 59 years of wise leadership Emperor Raffaello have abdicated from the throne, proclaiming, the only 23 years old, Giovanni del Vino as his successor.
As many people may know the succession for the Italian throne is not by dinasty, but, like in the old Roman Empire, the Emperor choose the best one between his advisors as his heir.
Great parties have been organized throughout the streets of Torino and Rome, but also just about any major cities have organized one, with the biggest one being the party in Zagreb where over a million people attended.

The new Emperor have declared that he will promote space explorations and colonization under his rule.

From: Italy

Emperor Giovanni del Vino greets his European neighbors, we wish to extend a hand of friendship to your nations, in order to secure our mutual border. Therefore we offer you a NAP.

To: United Lunar States

We heard a few things about your nation that do not please us very much: such as a possible invasion of all the Moon bases, and even further a possible Lunar invasion of Earth.
We hope that this voices are just mere propaganda, and on this regard we would like to have your assurance that no attack will be conducted by the ULS against the Italian Moon Bases.

China to Italy:

Excellent.

2205

2 NEAs (Near Earth Asteroids), Icarus (1.4 km diameter) and Geographos (2.0 km diameter and especially rich in nickel, iron and magnesium silicates) have been captured and are being towed into Lagrange Points in earth orbit to be mined for minerals and turned into space stations for transit and in space assembly/docking.

A new research college has been founded, the Exotic Technology Institute. It will consist of three campuses, one of which will be located in the capital of China’s Europa settlement. It will consist of two branches, the Domestic Branch and the Military Branch. Each will have paired departments, including Advanced Materials Dep., Propulsion Dep., Electronics Dep., etc. These products, once developed, will go into military hardware or the general market, depending on how sensitive the nature of the item is.
