Message from Sweden.
Algaroth
Hello my dear friends Americans,
We bring you glad news from Sweden today. As you all know USA declared war upon Mexico last week. But the government failed to inform the other members of ATLANTIS about their plans at least 48 hours before the actual declaration, which is to be considered a violation of the Atlantis Treaty.
Earlier this week, the voting about the matter was ended, and the Atlantis resulting that USA now has to pay the penalty fee of 100 gold to each Atlantis member nation.
The actual voting numbers were 2-5, in favor of not enforcing, but the rules state that a 4/5 majority is needed to disregard the penalty. Therefore, USA is to pay 100 gold to each and every one of the other members.
Sweden was one of those who voted against the reprimand, we won't tell who voted for it.
Neither will our secretaries of Swedish Secrets.
We respect the ruling and will of ATLANTIS, yet we sympathize with USA. We will act upon ATLANTIS’ decision and accept the 100 penalty gold from USA. But at the same time Sweden would very much like to help our valued friend as much as possible, taking in consideration that you lost your treasury for not so long time ago and now is bound to pay several of hundreds gold in the middle of a world war.
Therefore the Swedish government decided to donate 100 gold to the United States of America as a sign of how much we value our relationships. Polar bear hunting pays so much that we actually can afford it. So while we sat here in Sweden, swimming around in pools of liquid gold, and saw our friends under so hard economical pressure, we figured that you need the gold far more than we do. Our treasury is still safe; even though we were afraid that we'd lost part of it when Toothpaste disappeared. Fortunately, he came back and we got the money once again, so we kind of thought: Why not give it away again?
That was everything from us Swedes today. We wish you a nice day and hope that you intend to use the gold responsibly (spank some PEACE GC ass, hard).

Nice 🙂 this is what friendship is about. I think USA should pay the penalty fee then all the countries that received it donated it back to USA. ~ Sweden made her move, don't disappoint them.
Voted 🙂
Voted!
Voted. It is good to see such solidarity between Atlantis nations 🙂
As a member of Congress, thank you very much for making the eUSA governments job that much easier. I hope we can continue our wonderful relationship well in to the future.
Voted!!
Thanks Sweden buddies 😃
Given my role as a congressman (not as Secretary of State), I think Sweden ought to be thanked for their generosity but the gold returned. Exceedingly kind of our Swedish allies, but how can we berate our ATLANTIS buddies for demanding 100 G as a penalty and then accept money from them?
Ah Swedish Girls...
Anyways that 4/5 doesn't sound like a good way of supporting majority rule. In fact it's more of a minority stick up everyone's ass.
Publius: Keep the money. I insist. ;o)
Better fight for Romania now!
VÖTED!
Proud to have Swedish allies. Brave, Brilliant, Bountiful Bear.
Sweden excels again 🙂
aww...
I basically love eSweden. they are our best ally in the game.
Voted and signed. 🙂
I love you guys. GO GO SWEDEN!
Ok! It's official. I love you guys :3
As the Speaker of the House, I think this is a great sign of compassion and respect from a wonderful ally. I can not speak for the entire 51 congresspeople of the USA, but I know I will be pushing for that MPP to continue past the 4 days that's remaining.
It's yet to be seen what the official stance of congress is towards this fine is, but be sure that your generosity will not be forgotten.
rules are meaningless
Sweden is a true friend 😃
The eUSA will remember this and we will forever be grateful to our allies and our friends for this action.
now once we have that settled and Mexico is over, ONWARD TO ROMANIA!
Voted and Signed 🙂
Signed.
I hereby declare the adjectives "Swedish" and "Awesome" to be interchangeable.
True allies!!! I will fight alongside a Swede any day!
Thanks.
Too bad we won't be paying.
I guess I will sign it here as well, as all my colleuges has done.
And thanks for the comments, we are most grateful.
America thanks you for your help Sweden.
eSweden: as awesome as normSweden. Thanks for not being bandwagon douchebags, guys.
Tack själv Sweden!
actually if you go by that 4/5 rule it didn't pass even though 5/7 sayed yes, simple math 4/5 = 80% 5/7 = 71.4%. unless i'm missing something here?
5/7 said no. Only two nations voted to enforce the fine.
Oh my bad
ty sweden!
Channing: You are forgiven. =o)
Sweden is the greatest Scandinavian nation!!!!
Yay, we love Sweden 😃
You rock Sweden!
Always good to have friends like this.
I Love Sweden 😃
