The Tribune of the Plebs approved the new budget proposal by the Senior Council this week that called for extensive public spending on projects and investments. Senior Council Voltaire called a special committee before the Senate to administer the spending of public funds. The budget highlights are as follows:
1. Investment into asteroid belt mining will continue to be supported by treasury funds, the treasury has lent out a considerable sum to private holders in order to help the development of zero-g mining;
2. 100,000 aureus were approved on the development of industrial colonies in the outer-solar system;
2. The Senate will donate 100,000 aureus, to the 400,000 aureus already allocated from the public treasury toward the establishment of orbital Earth manufacturing colonies.
DIPLOMACY
To Empire of China:
We would be most pleased to establishing a free-trade zone between the Chinese Mars Colonies and the Republic of Akassou. The free flow of goods between our two territories will serve to benefit both peoples.
We hope our improved relations will facilitate the free flow of trade in the inner-solar system on a whole.
ORDERS
Increase public investment in asteroid mining project;
Continue plans for Saturn industrial colony;
Begin work on orbital Earth colonies; &
Continue diplomatic pressure on Uruk, Capo, & New Mascates.
You can only curse me to eternal damnation for so long!
The Grand Counsil has discussed the offer and has agreed to spend 195,000,000,000 INR on the terraforming project. The money will be divided into degressive annual sums, on a 30% ratio. That means we will pay:
1. year: 58.5 billion INR
2. year: 40.6 billion INR
3. year: 29.0 billion INR
4. year: 20.0 billion INR
5. year: 46.9 billion INR (last payment)
Do you accept?
To Akassou
From China
We welcome this decision! Shall the free trade zone boost both of our economies, and shall it be a shining example to all martian states!

We are glad we finally could reach peace with you.

Since our country is in bad shape, and we don't trust the Muslim - Hebrew Grand Alliance anymore, we ask for membership of the Asian Confederation.
Not only this would be highly beneficial for noth of us, but it will probably bring a definitive peace in the region.
We humbly await your response in the hope it shall be positive.

We suggest you stop this war, the Earth Nations are too much for you alone. Even the US when it rebelled from England was fighting against England alone, and with help from France and other European country.(/secret)
To: The Solar System
From: Canada
The NBE claims that the Martian people want independence, the nations of Earth with Martian colonies claim the their citizens don't wish to be separated from their mother countries.
Canada says: Why don't we just ask them? Earth should allow Mars to be free if they wish to, but in order to do that we should probably organize elections in the Martian Colonies asking if they wish for Independence, or if they wish to remain part of their mother country.(and monitor them, so that we are sure that nobody will try to alter the resuts).
I hope that at least those countres that call themselves "democratic" will like this idea, and accept its verdict, as it would finally solve this stupid war.

We think that the Canadian proposal would be the best for the future of both Mars and Earth.

From: La Paz Pact
The LPP doesn't have enough armies in Mars to declare war on the NBE now, especially given the vicinity of our colonies with the NBE.
For now we shall only give you, and the CDA diplomatic support.
To: Akassou
From: Uruk, Capo, New Mascate
While we wish for good relations with the Repubblic of Akassou, we can not agree on your neutral policy i this war. Therefore we shall keep our current alliance with the New Boston Empire, Flores and Diamoutene
To: Akassou
From: Diamante
Hello my dear neighbor. frankly we don't understand how you can stay in peaceful in such a great moment for Mars, join the war, and help us liberate Mars from Earth Imperialism
To: Akassou
From: Delepoi, Cavasini
We greet the powerful Repubblic of Akassou, and we applaud your chioce of neutrality in this stupi conflict, may our nations live in peace forever.
Unfortunatly the diplomacy took me more time than I thought.
So I will have to stop the update here for now.
I shall complete it later this night. As I'm running out of time right now.

Of course any haggling and other trades are possible. And depending on the size of the terrain will depend on the amount of time. Also the more money you spend the faster it goes.

The Indian Association for Standard and Fair Business Practices (IASFBP) recently rated the Russian Space Agency for it's terraformation abilities.
When observing Russian workers, we noted that they seemed very focused on tasks at hand. When we entered they were very friendly, showing us everything and explaining everything.
We did note that most Russian workers under 20, however, were extremly rude. One began to call out racial slurs to us. But this was not indicative of the entire staff.
The components were very fine, with a qualtiy grade of AA. We tested the integrity of these components (Exposure to high levels of energy, zero gravity environments, etc) and they held up very well. However the Taiwanese Maxtor SuperLasre200 did explode after being subjected to high levels of radiation.
The most surprising thing was that most of these were not Indian components but Russian ones. Most of them were very durable, and cost-effective as well. The most energy lost to "waste" was .003%, which is not that bad.
We did note, however, the skill of the operators was a bit low. Russia should invest more in training.
Tech support was very bad, primarily because none of them spoke Hindi.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
JOINT ANNOUNCEMENT BETWEEN THE
REPUBLIC OF INDIA & THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION
Declassified Project Information
The Russian Federation and the Republic of India would like to announce the beginning of the formation of the
NOVAYA MIR
and the
ANTORASHTRIO
space stations. These space stations are estimated to have a combined cost of over $2,163,245,814,163 Indian Rupees.
The NOVAYA MIR will be stationed high above the Earth, in orbit like a satellite. The ANTORASHTRIO will have a scenic setting between the MOON and MARS.
These two space stations will signify human evolution. They will be equipped with state-of-the-art electronic security systems including Pulse Laser Cannons and EMP Missiles, as well as internal security systems such as facial detection, heat signatures, and internal gun installations.
It will also be equipped with high-tech propulsion systems which will allow it to reposition itself in case of emergency. These systems are estimated to be able to travel from Earth to Pluto and back in around 120 days.
This station will feature cutting edge entertainment including Video Rooms for watching all the latest movies, the Antiriaa(TM) Music Store with every song ever recorded, and even a rare Holographic Simulation Unit which will literally immerse the user in his or her own world.
Both stations would have on-board crew and cilvian quarters for both tourists and those whom wish to reside on the station.
Imagine: A place where there are no wars, no major disease, no poverty...
Space Station populations are projected to be 10,000 occupants each, with possibilities of expansion being limitless!
Can you see the potential of the SPACE STATION PROJECT?
Governments and Corperations seeking to help build and fund the space stations are welcome! The payoff in research, military protection, and consumer spending is likely to bring returns like never imagined! Yay!
For those whom are thinking of residing on either of the stations, please contact either the RUSSIAN or INDIAN governments today!
