Excellent. Construction has started. One question though - would you like a pool, and if so then do you want it indoors or out?

your continued existance?
mutual defence treaty? anyone attacks you, i slag them with my strategic bomber fleet and ICBMs!
I am not sure if Mr Laser Beam's request for New York City included all or part of Long Island or not. He will have to tell us. If he has claimed a nearby state, then invade and take Long Island.
As you wish, Oh Majestic One. I shall erect a statue of a goose gazing with awe and adoration at an oversized 3-legged feline so that all may know that all geese of any race, custom or creed can seek shelter in Leiden thanks to the benevolence of our Most Beloved Feline. An invisible forcefield of 20,000 volts will keep pigeons and would-be Banksys at bay so that the statue will remain pristine. The charred remains of any casualties will be removed before sunrise every morning.
Amsterdam will be remained Kittydam and it shall be made law that every ship that calls into any port in my domain must produce evidence of having an extremely spoiled and well-loved feline on board or they will face a heavy fine. In every town square there will be a floral display in the shape of a 3-legged cat. We will tithe 5% of our annual flower and plant harvest to Tasmania for bribery, erm, friendship purposes. Plants that can be dried and rolled into funny cigarettes can included in the bribe, erm, friendship gift.
I am bored and looking to start a war. Who's first?
And it can't be Ireland, since I am of primarily Irish decent. I will attack my homeland about the same time that the Queen poops on her own front lawn and tries to blame Tony Blair.
Oh and I have now erected a huge cat statue in Trafalgar Square and installed vaporizing lasers to kill the pigeons before they can crap on it. I am also renamed Stone Hinge "Kitty Hinge".

If you invade me I'll make a whackload of those huge reefers like in History of the World Part 1. I'll have your soldiers stumbling around raving about tie-dyed bunnies and double rainbows.
Well, maybe someday in the future you can vacation there in the past.
Don't worry, I am quite willing to share. I claim only NYC itself.
YR is quite welcome to overrun and conquer the rest of Long Island.
Besides, I swore that I'd make her teach me her accent, and she can't do that if I defeat her in battle, which I wouldn't do anyway because, well, she just rocks, that's why.
I suppose we could jointly rule the entire state, though...what say you, YR?
Would you like to have Berlin?
I'll take Berlin if you throw in Hanover as well
so, nobody wants the oil-rich Mid East to hold the rest of us to ransom, then?
good to know...
good to know...
Ok, good for me
Just one thing : I'd like Saint Helena to sray free, things might turn out bad for me and I might use it
I have all the oil I might need in Antarctica...somewhere under here. Finding it might take a while, but it's there.
That's OK with me. Thanks for giving me Finland!Would you like to have Berlin?Hmm...that depends- is there anything cool in that half of northern Germany?
I'll take Berlin if you throw in Hanover as well
Update: Construction of the Aral Statue has finished, and I now have complete control of Kazchickenistan.
Already the peasants love me at bringing notice to Kazakhstan, as the only country in mainland Asia to be claimed, it is now the greatest country in Asia.
Ruling from Eyestana, the newly named capital, I now turn my eyes to both the unruly southern 'stans, ripe for conquest, and the possible growing threats of the European powers to the west.
Oh, and I'm sending all my peasants out on the Caspian Sea to fish as many sturgeon as possible, and claim a monopoly on caviar.

Many thanks Miss Chicken and MLB.
MLB, i have no interest in ruling the rest of NY State, but i do appreciate you're willingness to share the job with me. I can't think of anything worse than having to rule over such places as Rochester NY.....
Besides which, my plans for LI involve some really cool weapons of mass destruction so i'll be a little busy.....
Oh wise Miss Chicken,
I humbly request the right to form the Western Mediterranean Union in order to create the largest empire the world has ever seen that is based on the idea that all beaches should be nude beaches. In order to fulfil this goal I request the following territories.
France: Languedoc-Roussillon, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, Rhône-Alpes, Auvergne, Limousin, Midi-Pyrénées, Aquitaine, Corsica.
Italy: Aosta Valley, Piedmont, Liguria, Sardinia.
Spain: Catalonia, Aragon, Navarre, Basque, Valencia, Murcia, Balearic Islands.
According to my extensive population analysis (Wikipedia and a calculator), the population of this Union should be 48.4 million, give or take a million. No doubt, drawing this empire will hugely annoy the official map-maker, but I believe this is worth doing in order to push the important cause of sexy nude beaches.
In return, I promise to make you the head judge at the Cannes film festival, which will give you complete control over the famous film-stars that attend.
I hope you can see the wisdom in this proposal.
Yours graciously,
The Godfrey Steven Benn.

I am pleased to hear that my neighbor has acted with such wisdom and grace and on behalf of the peoples of the Russo-Celtic Union I would like to extend the warm hand of friendship to you and the wonderful English people.
Let us create a new and brighter destiny for our Isles!
(On that note, what shall we do we the North Sea oil?

Finalized report on Nasat Territory, submitted to International Community:
Founded in September 2010, the Nasat Realm of Ross constitutes the first major attempt to civilize the formally lawless territory, Antarctica. Bestowed upon Archon Deranged Nasat by Her Tripedalness, Miss Chicken, the nation has swiftly become a beacon of prosperity, architectural grandeur, and tempered justice. Economic stability is ensured through harvests of krill in the Nasat Realm Maritime Annex, tourism based around our extensive ice sculptures, and oil drilling (‘cause you know it’s under there). We also sell frozen yoghurt and penguin plushies.
Motto: “Mostly Penguins, All Glory”.
Territory: The realm encompasses the continent of Antarctica (and a few other places). Originally consisting of the Ross Ice Shelf, it expanded to surrounding mountains and other landmass, the Maritime Annex, and the distant Galapagos Colonies. We now control the entire continent and surrounding coasts. The Galapagos region constitutes our equatorial colony and serves as a source of tropical foodstuffs unavailable on the Ice Shelf.
Demonym: Nasatian.
Settlements: The city of Nasatasia, a combination of ice sculpture and more conventional architecture, serves as the national capital. One of 14 cities in the nation proper, it has a population of 300,000. A further 900,000 are split between the remaining cities and research stations/military outposts. Many (in fact most) of these “people” are, in fact, penguins. When Archon Deranged Nasat assumed control of the region, most of the major penguin tribes swore loyalty to him. A hierarchy and caste system is now in place, unifying the various breeds.
Emperor penguins serve as local mayors and generals, ruling by proxy where the Nasat cannot presently be.
King Penguins serve as judges, schoolmasters, top research scientists, and diplomats.
Chinstrap penguins are the aides, teachers, researchers, librarians, etc.
Adelie penguins are the workers, technicians, builders, and labourers.
Rockhoppers are an elite military unit.
Gentoo penguins are fishermen and farmers, harvesting krill and fish.
In addition to penguins, there are several tens of thousands of humans, refugees from other territories and families who have arrived here seeking sanctuary. In his wisdom, the Nasat granted it. These humans perform various jobs, often using the existing infrastructure of the various research outposts established prior to the Nasat’s reign.
The Galapagos colonies are home to tropical plantations, volcanic spas, and several shipyard facilities.
Language: English. I’m too lazy to learn anything else. Unless Miss Chicken decrees that I must.
Government: Deranged Nasat is the supreme authority, his whims to be obeyed. His lieutenants have sworn fealty to him from respect, awe, love, and also fear of his unusual powers - among them his ability to cry, scream and threaten to run away.
Currency: The root of all evil. 100 roots in an evil, and 100 evils in an all evil.
Law and Justice: Those convicted of capital crimes will be fed to the leopard seals.
Capital crimes include espionage (like those so-called “scientists” “studying” the ice shelf), high treason, defacing of the Nasat’s portrait, and doing that thing with the finger clicking that I hate. You all know what you’re doing, and I am not amused.
Murder or penguicide, rape, kidnapping, etc, are punishable by imprisonment and occasionally exile.
Military forces: Penguins, mostly. Our elite rockhopper commandoes are our most feared and efficient fighters, trained in all manner of combat scenarios and hardened by the ice of the Antarctic expanse. In addition, the nation maintains a fleet of boats stolen--er, sorry, I mean “liberated”-- from earlier research expeditions and visiting scientists. We also have fighter planes. We just do, okay? Our supreme weapon (currently kept in reserve) is the alien shape-shifter known only as The Thing. Hopefully, we shall never need to defreeze it.
Places of Interest:
Nasatasia, the capital. Home to the Nasatorial Palace, the great Sci-fi library (heavily biased towards Star Trek and Babylon Five), the Odds-and-ends museum, and the experimental ice-skating safari park (we had trouble fitting the skates to the elephants, let me tell you).
The Great Monument, the symbolic visage of Miss Chicken sculpted into the ice on a grand scale. Her wisdom and power are undeniable as she overlooks the realm. Visitors will stand awestruck, while invaders will hopefully tremble in their boots to contemplate her judgement (if their frostbite hasn’t already stiffened them too severely).
Further inland, near one of the cities, is a field of vast ice sculptures reflecting the many facets of Miss Chicken. Miss Chicken the Wise, Miss Chicken the Firm but Fair, Miss Chicken the Noble, Miss Chicken, She of Vision. This vast display of the three-legged one’s superiority stands as testament to our beloved benefactor, and earns the realm much money as tourists flock to visit (such profits are used to fund the development of the local communities).
The National Cross-Valley Sledding run and Grand Ice Rink; Sports are enjoyed here, like anywhere else. See also the P-P-P-Punch Up A Penguin boxing ring. Afterwards, spectators can enjoy a stiff warming drink at Fat Pedro’s.
The volcanic spas of the Galapagos Colonies are a popular relaxation resort, as are its tropical atolls.
Resources: Ice (for freezing grain in storage or for drinking water), coal, oil, various minerals (lead, uranium, etc, etc), krill, fish.
Long term goals:
1. Control of the entire Antarctic Circle.
2. Ungodly penguin-human breeding experiments.
3. A monopoly on krill fishing.
4. In the Galapagos Colonies, integrate all of Darwin’s Finches back into one species.
5. A good woman to rule at the Nasat’s side (and make little Nasats with!).
6. A space program (we hope to colonise Pluto).
International relations: The realm is eager to open relations with other nations. Joint research projects, mutual defence pacts and political or military alliances may be proposed at any time. In particular, unwanted populations and dissidents from allied territories (or any territories) are welcome to seek refuge in Antarctica. A willingness to work guarantees citizenship!

As one of the world's foremost economic powers and an importer of Middle Eastern oil (until our extensive green energy programs have been completed), the Central European Confederation disapproves of any action taken against these nations. Except for Qatar. They know what they did.
In exchange for not turning the entire region into glass, the CEC would like to propose an economic alliance with the Itchy Trigger Finger Federation. As one of the world's leading exporters with a massive and highly developed industrial base, we have many essential goods and products that would prove beneficial to the ITFF's citizenry.
Not at all. In fact, this is exactly why I chose a base map with a whole bunch of subnational borders.
If Her Majesty Miss Chicken approves your request, the CEC will happily welcome its unbearably smug neighbors in the new Western Mediterranean Empire, and we don't doubt that our many corporate executives will make extensive use of the Empire's wonderful beaches. Our winter refuge in Tahiti can only handle so many white collar criminals, after all. An updated world map will be posted later, pending Miss Chicken's decision regarding new territorial claims.
