the CEC may consider itself an ally of the ITFF.
FWIW, if the CEC is with the ITFF, shouldn't you keep that on the QT? Otherwise somebody could end up MIA and everyone would be put on KP.
OK?
The CEC congratulates Kazakhstan on its success, and would like to propose a formal alliance. With our economic power in the West, and Kazakhstan's growing influence in the East, we believe it would be in both our nations' interests to work together. The Confederation would also be happy to extend any assistance needed in Kazakhstan's inevitable conquest of the rebel states to its south.

Mr. Laser Beam:
This will indeed serve as excellent propaganda to encourage my pro-penguin stance, and generate acceptance for the penguin-citizen in international consciousness.
Your great service to my nation is much appreciated. I propose alliance, and further offer you the right to cash in a favour- within reason - at some later date.
Signed, His Insectile Supremeness, Archon Deranged Nasat.

^ I accept your offer. Furthermore I have decreed that all penguins shall be granted free admission and the best seats to all Yankees and Mets games. 
Alliance accepted. The CEC can expect to receive a hundred barrels of caviar as a opening gift from the Kingdom of Kazakhstan (officially also known as Kazchickenstan, but that is a ceremonial name, considered too long for everyday use) to solidify the alliance.
I will offer the promise of any assistance needed for the CEC in the near future in exchange for the promised assistance for those rebel states.
Uzbekistan first. The Aral Sea shall be brought fully under my control. And we don't like the Uzbeks anyway.
Signed, His Benevolent Majesty Eyes of the Kingdom of Kazakhstan.
All these places are yours. Not a great fan of beaches or water myself but I know humans are.
I am pleased to see how much effort some people are putting into their countries. Deranged Nasat is especially doing well.
Oil? Feh. In Super New England, we're using zero point energy.
Well, at least now we know where the Institute in Fallout 3 came from.Oil? Feh. In Super New England, we're using zero point energy.
And? There is a special offer somewhere?
Excellent. The islands of New Zealand, Samoa, Tonga, Nuie, Cook and minor annexes will be now know as the nation of Terraiguana.
National flag of Terraiguana:
The flag of Terraiguana is a field of green with a white canton. The green field represents the reptilian grace and decadent pleasures of the beloved lizards, which is the source of inspiration for all the nation. The canton is charged with the Royal Coat of Arms of MissChicken, as a sign of loyalty to Her Majesty as well as a testament to the historical and cultural connections to the other nations of the TrekBBS Commonwealth. The field is charged with four red stars with white borders and the stylized symbol of an iguana. The four red stars represent the constellation of the Southern Cross, referring to the geographical position of the nation as well as the activity of its governor. The iguana is drawn in the style of a Maori tattoo, honouring the original inhabitants of the land.
More to follow.
This is an excellent idea. Your choices are excellent, too. I look forward to establish diplomatic relationship with you, with full exchange of Ambassadors. Terraiguana and the Western Mediterranean Union shall be friends forever.TheGodBen said:
Miss Chicken, I would like to request the great land known as Vancouver Island. It is already technically claimed by WHF in his bid for British Columbia, but I would request it be split from that territory for the following reasons:
1. It's too expensive for anyone to get to from the mainland--darn BC Ferries--and therefore better to be made its own country.
2. Mainland BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan are pretty huge tracts of land, whereas Vancouver Island is a humble size in comparison. WHF will hardly notice its absence.
3. I will be taking a lot of hippies off his hands.
4. We will make a 50 foot high totem pole with Miss Chicken as its most important figure. We will also sell miniature versions of it as necklaces, bracelets and paper-weights to the Japanese and European tourists.

I will let you have it for the time being knowing that WHF is a loyal servant who will be willing to give up Vancouver Island in exchanged to the beautiful island of Mauritius.
I am surprised that no-one has asked for Madagascar. I reckon ruling over lemurs, fossas and aye-ayes would be cool.

Perhaps no one wants to claim Madagascar because we *all* like to move it move it, we like to move it move it, we like to....move it?
Excellent.
I'm posting the Wikipedia article as we speak. The Western Mediterranean Union
The Western Mediterranean Union is a country in Western Europe that was formed during The Great Worldwide Reorganisation of September 2010.
Capital: Marseille
Motto: "Peace through nudity"
Official Flag:
Unlike most flags in the world, the flag of the WMU actually has a meaning. The main tri-colour of beige, dark-blue and light-blue represent the sand, sea and sky one would see at a beach. The symbol in the middle is the joining of the male and female symbols to make a stick figure that appears to have a giant wang.
Population: 48,400,001 (give or take a million)
Head of State and Government: The Godfrey Steven Benn
Currency: Beno (Ƀ)
Internet: .wmu
Drives on the: middle
History
In 1846, the famous French philosopher Louis le Brocquy (born in Dublin in 1916) first posed the idea of the Western Mediterranean Union; a union based on the then revolutionary idea that people should be naked when they go to the beach. When this idea was proposed to King Louis-Phillipe I, he laughed haughtily and rejected it. Feeling like he had no other option, Louis le Brocquy united the people of southern France and rose up in rebellion against the French government. The government sent their best general, Pierre Abelard (born 1079), and he came up with the ingenious strategy of tricking the rebels into fighting on a beach, which meant that the rebels had to take all their clothes and armour off as per their own rules. They were quickly slaughtered, and the dream of nude beaches across the north-western Mediterranean died with them.
After a century and a half of repression (being forced to wear swimsuits), The Western Mediterranean Union finally became a reality on September 16th 2010, and since then has become a major player on the international stage.
Government
The country is officially a republic, but is effectively a benevolent dictatorship. The head of state and government is known as the Imperator, and the current Imperator is The Godfrey Steven Benn; originally from Ireland, he now resides in the Imperial palace in Marseille, within telescopic viewing distance of Plages du Prado, the nearby beach. Imperator Benn is considered by most citizens to be a wise and attractive leader, and he is greatly admired for his hair.
The country used to have a constitution that provided powerful protections and freedoms for the citizenry, but it was lost after a hotel-room cleaner threw it out while Benn was attending a world leader convention. Now everyone is working from memory, which is a pity because nobody bothered to read the constitution while it was around.
Economy
The primary export of the WMU is naughty pictures taken at the nudist beaches, some of which generate substantial ad revenue when placed on the internet. A large tax is put on these pictures when exported, and many people around the world complain that this protectionist policy is stifling the worldwide trade of naughty pictures.
The WMU is one of the world's most popular tourist destinations, and the sale of binoculars and camouflage gear is 500% higher than the worldwide average.
A key driver of the tourist trade is the annual Miss Chi-Cannes film festival, which attracts famous film-stars, film critics, and rich idiots from around the world.
Culture
There are no television or radio stations in the WMU, it is assumed by the government that people can just download TV shows or listen to their MP3 players.
There is a proud sporting tradition in the WMU, mainly around the sport of beach volleyball. The national team qualified for the recent FIBVA World Cup, but the team was disqualified for not wearing a jersey.
Religion plays an important role in WMU society, with 78% of the population claiming their religion as Nudist, 14% are members of The Church of Clothing, 7% are Short-shortists, while 3% claimed no religion.
World Rankings
Ever since the creation of the WMU, it has performed poorly in world rankings for education, healthcare, the economy, crime, the environment, political freedom, and the overall quality of life. However, the country came first place for the number of nudist beaches per population, so the country is considered a huge success.
As leader of the WMU, I welcome cross-border trade between our peoples, and would like to offer an open-border treaty. I believe this would benefit us both as your people will have access to our nudist beaches, while my people gain access to your nudist ski resorts.Not at all. In fact, this is exactly why I chose a base map with a whole bunch of subnational borders.
Perhaps we should consider forming some sort of Union of European nations designed to bring our continent closer together. We can call it The Pan-European Group Thing With an Open Market, As Well As Other Areas Of Cooperation In Social, Monetary, Educational and Caravanning Institutions, or PEGTWOMAWAOAOCISMECI for short.
I welcome peace with all nations, particularly the friendly people of Terraiguana.
However, as an uncivilised south Pacific nation, my superior European values demand that I make you a protectorate of my empire and teach you the ways of Nudism. If you refuse, we will pillage your land and rape your womenfolk.
I've legalized pot and was using the tax revenue to build a bridge.
I may have a huge tract of land but I have a very modest population. Also, I don't like the thought of a nation between me and the Pacific.
I can't afford to lose the revenue stream from legalizing pot. They're either growing it or smoking it.
Pfft. I'll build a 50 metre totem and I'll name a strain of marijuana after Miss Chicken.
I hope that you will reconsider. My concern is that if I give up Vancouver Island then maybe someone like Goliath will ask for Alberta. As your loyal and humble servant I will defer to your judgment.
OK, you can keep Vancouver Island and I will give Hunter X, Mauritius, the Seychelles and any other island in the Indian Ocean he might want (if he wants them at all).
The people of the Republic of Eastern America have noticed that while the CEC has a vast industrial base, they lack several of the natural resources that said industrial base requires. We hereby propose an alliance and trade agreement whereby our resources will be used in CEC factories. The REA will also gladly see to the transportation of said goods to the CEC until such time as the CEC develops a merchant fleet.
Oil? Feh. In Super New England, we're using zero point energy.
To the Supreme Ruler of Super New England, Greetings from the people of the REA. We would like to propose a free trade agreement whereby your residents could build and maintain winter or vacation homes in the warmer regions of the REA. We would also be interested in selling you cotton and hemp products.
If I've missed any claims, I apologize. Just point out the mistake and I shall rectify it as soon as I'm able.
You are missing the Republic of Eastern America, which encompasses the entirity of the states of Georgia, North Carolina, Florida, South Carolina, Virginia, Alabama, and Mississippi in North America.
Ouch, WHF decided to play hardball. Very well, I may end up just squatting on a beach in Tofino in a Westfalia.
