No Day
TheMakoto
Do you know why Greeks celebrate October 28?
October 28 1940: it had been over one year into World War 2 and only 4 months ago the German war machinery had crushed France, ensuring total Axis hegemony on the European continent. Things looked grim.
On this October 28, Greece was handed an ultimatum by Fascist Italy. The Greek government was to allow the armed forces of Italy, which were allied to Germany, to occupy Greece and use the country for the war efforts against the Allied Powers or risk war at the hands of the Axis forces. A clear ultimatum. A clear choice. The facts spoke against Greece: faced with the most powerful military in existence at the time, defeat was all but certain would the country opt to resist. Realistically spoken, everything spoke for conceding to the Axis demands to at least retain a remnant of sovereignty.
Yet Greek Prime Minister Metaxas sent only a simple message in response to the threat by the Italian government:
"No."
At 5:30 am, Italian forces began to invade Greece, which ultimately ended in the subjugation of the country by fascist forces till the end of World War 2.
Today still, "No Day" is celebrated by Greeks as a sign of national pride and honorable defiance against all odds, as a sign that doing the right thing even while facing pain and hardship is possible.
On this day, December 14, Day 1120 of the New World, the Imperial Diet rejected the region swap with the government of South Korea, which has been taken hostage by hostile foreign elements. The Imperial Diet rejected having a safe transfer of regions that would have secured us peace and an economic benefit and instead opted to fight a war that we are currently hard-pressed to wage, having lost all battles of Chugoku thus far, the outcome is still uncertain. The enemy is at our door, so to say. Yet, refusing to make deals with a coercive and manipulative cabal, refusing to let our Korean brothers down, the Imperial Diet decided to embark on the way of honor and noble defiance in the face of a severe threat.
I leave it up to the politicians to decide whether this was a 'clever' move or not. But should this not be a reason to mark this December 14 as our very own No Day? A day that eJapan can be truly proud of.

Voted! The region swap would have benefited eJapan's economy, but we negotiated it with the old government under now-impeached eSK president Grease. We will now re-analyze our options and find another way to help our economy without dealing with a PTO group (even though Grease indicated there would be no bad feelings about negotiations with Clopoyaur).
"No"
The first step towards truly permanently repairing relations between Korea and Japan is to fight against the actions of the illegal government holding power in Korea. The Emperor was a great friend to Korea during his presidency and subsequent coronation, and he is setting an excellent example of why relations during that time period were so outstanding.

Give Jeju back... Than you can do whatever you want with your regions. No swap will mean NO SWAP. Talking about honor? You have our region and dare to say anything.. Make a RW and GIVE IT BACK than you can claim to fight for independence. So lame... So lol for all of the puppets here.
And you Yonai.. No backbone always against the regime never for the country. If it's not you there in power it means it is not ok, right? The normality in eSK was destroyed by people like you and Grease. So many forms of just not helping the SK. You feel so good to do things against us. But you are just not better. Even with your opposition we did great things and the economy is even better than before. Now imagine what we could have done without all this mess.
Kokawa is great.

Feeling very dizzy from all the spinning.
As for the Greek's no day, it must be the Spartan influence.
eJapan is working quickly to reset our borders and restore our diplomatic ties with eSouth Korea after this, what can only be described as a gross misunderstanding. Jeju is being RW'd as we speak, and it is our hope that Chugoku will follow suit, so that we may continue to have peaceful relations with our mainland neighbors.

I am, have always been, and will always be for South Korea. I have fought every PTO, every invasion, every economic attack that I've been in South Korea for. And though I find myself outside Korea at the moment, I continue to support South Korea. Whether or not I am against the government depends on whether that government is lawful and legitimate. I have been for the government (and led it) in the past, as well as opposing it in the past.
The Theocrats surely made the military and economy of Korea much better, seeing gold reserves and fighting ability unheard of on the peninsula before their dominance. However, they took control illegitimately and unlawfully. Just as the Romanians did. Any government that takes control illegitimately and unlawfully is bad for the nation, because it undermined democracy, regardless of economics or military growth. I won't even bother contesting whether or not the supposed economic growth has actually benefited eKoreans as much as it has eRomanians.
