Peace in the Far East (and the crisis that preceded it)
Emerick
Last night and tonight, President Glove and I acted as mediators between our two allies, China and Japan, hoping to help them come to terms for peace. Tonight, North Corea was also present, representing their part of the conflict. Right now, I'm tentatively proud to say that our allies have all agreed to end their confrontation peacefully, so we can all focus on the greater threat of that ONE alliance raping the European countryside.
It all started a very long time ago, when the admins killed our own little revolution with their super missions, around a monthish ago. Japan needed an Natural Enemy to complete those missions, and after asking around, they chose North Corea for their War Game partner. Assuming that North Corea was taken over by the Chinese, as most of us around the world did (including some Chinese), the Japanese asked the Chinese government for permission to start it. The Chinese agreed.
The War Games went off without a hitch. People got their missions completed and some massive str increases, which was very nice, but Japan accidentally ended up wiping Corea off the map. Which was a problem. China and Corea approached Japan, asking them to free Corea and give Corea gold to recreate their old parties. There were apparently a few numbers tossed around between talks: 200, 40. Regardless, Japan's President, Alfred Ball, promised to take the proposal to their congress.
Now, I'm going to deviate from what was told to me explicitly here, because here's what I believe happened in Japan: I believe that the Japanese still believed that Corea was under complete Chinese political occupation, and therefore, anything coming from Corea was coming from China. And China, being a large and powerful country that it is, asking Japan for money, is an insult. Comparing their population numbers will make it apparent that their GDPs don't compare.
Back to the facts, Japan's congress voted not to allow their president to give any gold to Corea as reparations. To complicate matters further, during all this, there were negotiations back and forth for Japan to rent a region from Corea, and then later, China to rent from Japan. I was approached three or four days ago from China, informing me that China would be renting a region from Japan, and not to be concerned about their war declaration. However, the plan was to let the Japanese MPP drop and renew the Chinese one, so I figured there was a problem when, the next day, not only did China declare Japan as their NE, but they voted down our MPP! I soon found out all about the negotiations, and watched as President Ball pleaded with Terra to send assistance to his country. They did, but those of us in Terra HQ were equally concerned with the fact that a country from an alliance who needs assistance, and is allied with our own alliance, was getting involved in a dispute with a country allied with their alliance.
If that sounds as confusing as it does to me at 3am right now, let me just say this then: we were concerned, confused, and disturbed that two of our good allies were breaking out in war with each other. And so was Terra HQ.
I spent a night or two talking to as many Chinese and Japanese officials as I could, to try to understand this situation, and how I could help. Finally, a meeting was set.
The long and short of it was that all parties agreed that it was much more prudent to focus on our allies who are in serious danger from actual enemies, and that peace was the best option. And just like that, cooler heads prevailed. It was an amazing sight to behold. Oh, and did I mention that some Japanese (not government officials, in fact, I don't think these people are even allowed on the Japanese forums; they are very bad men) trolled the Chinese using Unit 731 avatars. So knowing everything that happened beforehand, it was delightful to see these two countries put aside their misunderstandings and issues to focus on assisting allies.
This is what our Global Community is all about, and I'm proud to have been a witness to it.
Just a small note: look here for a short transcript of Alfred Ball(president of Nippon) and martianY(MoFA of China) explaining the conflict to me after the meeting, to prep me for this article.
And let there be peace in the Far East for generations to come. Let's not forget what's really important.
~Thank you, DJ Not Nice~

Great job Emerick.
CP of eJ think Nk is PTOed by eC, Then ask the permission from them to raise NE.then wipe out NK accidently...
RIDICULOUS!!
NK is a open place with multi-culture, if your country was wiped out accidently, would you accept it with ease?
Every time Alfred would request a talk with the NK CP, like 3-4 China representatives would show up. They (NK CP included) even openly said that NK belongs to China, so any talk done to NK had to actually be done to China.
Worth nothing. For the Str training, Japan paid China for the RW of Hamgyong so Japan could have region contact with NK so we could proceed with an attack and get the mission completed for Japaneses. China agreed to it, took our gold and gave us their blessing.
We RW the region and there's China attacking it right away before Japan can do it. So despite knowing we needed the region, and that we outright paid them for it, they attacked it. We had to send all our tanks to NK to fight off the Chinese attack and keep it from being conquered.
Things get better. We intended to only attack Hamgyong and shut off the war immediately as convened, but now a Chinese congressman in NK declares Japan their NE and the vote wins with a strong majority. Talks requests for peace are ignored.
Japan not wanting to be stuck in a (training?) war with NK, we need to shut it off to be able to fulfill our duties with Terra. The only option was to wipe off NK entirely to close this war.
Claims of China not PTO'ing NK is pretty amusing too.
China paid it's 4 months late rent for Ryangang yet? How about half the gold promised to NK for the RW medal farming done in NK by China? Yeah didn't think so.
China has a long history of making agreements with NK and then ignoring to do their end of the deals. Kaigefoh was CP of NK as well as the well known Afanasyi Drago. The former quit NK and the latter is a rare sight in the game lately. The aggravation was too great.
Both were strong advocates of NK and them kept asking China wtf was up with China not honoring their agreements was a constant irritation for China. So they did the simplest thing : only Chinese are now elected as CP of NK and a select few non Chinese make it into congress in NK.
Nobody but a select few voices easy to ignore now make noises.
Not a PTO?
Superior Foreign Policy.
If you want to talk, the best way is to publish a newspaper in local in case the whole coutry is 'being represented'
as PTO thing, does kaige another PTO from chinese?
How kaige got our vote to be president?
The ATO group who worked with Drago had agrees to a rotation of CPs. They didn't follow thru their end of the deal for long tho. As you can see in the election tab the CPs since October goes Drago, MeiFawAn then Dandelion. Kaigefoh was up for CP in December but China decided to come back on their deal and demanded 2 for 1 in the rotation. Then comes January and Kaycloud is pushed on NK. He was there only for the CP medal. Emails sent to Kaigefoh show him telling K to back off because the CP medal is all he is missing. NK was then officially a medal farm for China. Under Kaycloud China stops paying rent for Ryangang and request for explanations sent to Kaycloud fall on deaf ears.
Comes February and after intense pressures on China and a good job uniting all the differents factions, Kaigefoh gets elected as CP. I'm his VP then and we do a vigorous campaign to get talks done with China to get the rent payments and the share of gold farming sorted out. China ignores the pleas and make it clear NK is a puppet state and making payments to a colony makes no sense.
March rolls over and the Chinese voters are following China's orders. A Chinese CP is elected.
For the following congress election, all parties are gone since Japan had to wipe off the country to shut off the war. MaiFawAn makes a call to all NK to join under the party he created. Then proceed to put almost exclusively Chinese in the running, effectively putting congress under a very strong Chinese majority wihout the need to cast a single vote.
P.S.: For those not knowing me. I've worked closely with Drago during the last two years either as Minister in NK or as close adviser. I know a thing or two about NK...
Oh and we did publish in China. The article got like over a hundred comments.
The message from China, both officials and citizens, was clear: China owns NK, f**k off.
Good news
Thank you North Korea, China, and Japan : 3
I dont mean you guys publish in China, I mean eJapan should publish in NK before they did that.
to most NK citizen including me, eJapan is so crude. they took all from us and messed up the congress election. (Workers party cant afford funding money is such a short time.... of course plato made mistake by transfering to other country.Leojane, CP and I all ticketed that )Now I didnt see any apology from eJ.
as to the relation between you and eC... I wont comment..I didnt take part in the rent negotiation, but It's good to see you change back avatar from that formular...
Good news, it's going to take global cooperation to take on the Hungo-Serb Empire (and their vassal states: Spain, etc.)
Diplomacy; the true hero of war.
I like how I was apparently trolling when I was (v)MoFA and VP at the time.
But you know, I'm just a scapegoat for the nation now, apparently. Save face harder, please.
CURSES!! Foiled by the great Emerick and his phenomenal diplomacy. My plans to create turmoil in Far East Asia and throw the governments into anarchy are ruined.
But know this...as long as there is darkness in the hearts of men, and The View is still broadcast on television...evil will always find a way.
Diplomacy's under-rated these days ...
I like this relatively new "25" next to my name....right over
