Is it too late to join?

[Orb]

Is it too late to join?

No, I'll just have to make a few edits. Go ahead.

[Qloos]

Such a plan would obviously lead to world peace, and would not prevent the construction of intercept missiles.  Schrödinger is in favor of nuclear disarmament.

I also publicly invite a 2nd nation in a promise to not aim nukes upon each other in the event if this motion were to fail.

[Tersr]

France agrees with Schrödinger's ambassador, we favor the nuclear disarmament.

[Xanatos Jr.]

I shall be the United Kingdom.

*monocle*

We also support nuclear disarmament, yes.

[sayaks]

Antarctica agrees that such an pact would be beneficial for all, i agree.

[Orb]

Just a minor note:

Due to the increase in number of players, you now require 7 player alliance to achieve global peace.

Also, I forgot to mention you start with one nuke and one anti-nuke. You aim newly produced nukes, just to keep it simple. So for instance, if you're a normal player, and this resolution passes, you will be aiming 1 nuke and 2 anti-nukes. That is all.

The PRC politely votes against the proposal, declaring that the ability to counterstrike against heavily armed rogue nations is paramount in the defense of not only the PRC but all legal nuclear nations. However, should the proposal still pass, the PRC will accept the judgement without issue.

[Orb]

I have decided to rework things a bit to make the proceedings a bit smoother.


Day 1 will be debate and voting, sort of what you are doing now.

Day 2 will be sending me PMs with orders and perhaps openly discussing treaties, or whatever you deem fit.

The Republic of Lemons votes NAY!
The republic cannot support giving handouts to poor countries at the same time as preventing us from using our full arsenal to provide a reason to stop other countries from attacking us.

Spoiler: Background on the Republic of Lemons: (click to show/hide)

The Republic is a constitutional monarchy governed by King Larios III who has the ability to chose 1/3 of the delegates of Parliament as well as a veto requiring 2/3 of the members of Parliament to vote against him to break (which means every single other member of Parliament), he has no other official powers.
1/3 of Parliament is Chosen by the king, each member lasts for 4 years.
1/6 of Parliament outright buy their seats (generally corporate CEO's or spokespeople and the mega rich), every 4 years seats are bought.
1/6 of Parliament are the most influential nobles, decided by votes among the nobles every 4 years.
1/3 of Parliament are elected every 4 years by the people.


The reason it is called the republic of lemons is that 15 years ago, King Larios decided to instead of electing humans to his seats in Parliament, chose lemons, saying that he could hear what they were saying. Despite the initial public outcry, in the end the other members of Parliament accepted it without too much fuss, since they knew that the members that the king chose were his puppets regardless, and would do anything he said even if they weren't fruits only he could hear.
Ten years ago the Parliment, in exchange for historic concessions from the king, taking almost all of his powers aside from his veto and his power to elect 1/3 of parliament, agreed to change the name of the country to The Republic of Lemons.

I, Ragnar Harlawsson newly chosen Jarl of the Jarldom of Norway, say NAY. Why? First of all simply because i can...and secondly i dislike the idea that nations which live to a part from Norwegian Oil and Gas change to Nuclear Power...

On another note, to Russia and Antarctica i offer an alliance in case this motion comes through, as these nations like Norway have great parts of their economy based around Oil and Gas.

[LordSlowpoke]

Agree.

The dismantling of the nuclear arsenal for the betterment of life quality is essential to achieving stability in regions which without a steady supply of power would easily turn rogue given the opportunity, making the entire point of having such a deterrent void. Thusly, San Marino implies that these who do not wish to do so are arming up in a specific manner...

[Ghazkull]

are you implying that the Jarldom tries to gear for war?

I belive that an alliance would be beneficial, but also maybe the people who live from Norways oil and gas may use it for fuel?(er du fra Norge?)

[Ghazkull]

((OOC: sorry i don't speak Norwegian...yet!))

Yes also for fuel but the point is that our Nation and your nation too, are living from the export of Natural resources like Oil and Gas. Which is far more profitable than Uranium trade. Now think of it: if these minor Nations change their coal/oil/gas based energy sector to an uranium sector we would lose money,our economy would lose money. Therefore nay to that...
