On the War with Theocrats
Parrot
So, recently, we, as the nation of Japan, have been doing battle with the Theocrats in an attempt to return South Korea to proper hands. Now, we've been having a hard time doing this. Politically, our loss was slim; off by a vote. Militarily, we've lost every battle. We've been winning for the first 23 hours, but losing that last one.
With that being said, I feel the need to speak up.
Guys, we are weaker than the Theocrats by several fold. They are much better at fighting than we are. If they wanted to, they could take over the nation of Japan with ease. The fact is that if they tried that, though, they'd be overrun by immigrants who'd vote a new government in power and in the end, cause them to lose power.
Now, I'm not trying to be a naysayer of Japan. But, I used to be a Theocrat. I used to work with these people and fight by their side. When Switzerland was fighting in the World War, I was there, fighting for their homeland and came over to Japan after France destroyed their nation. Before that though, we had gone to war with America several months ago in defense of Mexico. During this time, America had about 10,000 or more people in it and Switerzland had around 130. In battle, though, Switzerland did 1/4th of the damage America did in the entire war. In fact, I calculated that every Theocrat soldier was roughly 27 times stronger than the opposition nation's soldiers.
With that being said, they know what they're doing; they've got the resources to do it; and if we continue fighting them, nothing's going to happen. You see, the Theocrats aren't inherently evil; they've done a lot of good in the past. In fact, I've supported them up to the point where they came to South Korea; I thought it was wrong that they were going to take the hard work that so many South Koreans put into recreating the nation, just insult them, and take over while ignoring the people that brought the nation to that point. That is inherently wrong, and I have vehemently opposed the Theocrats and fought against them whenever I could on this point.
So guys, here's the deal: we're not going to defeat the Theocrats with military power; they're stronger than us. We can only defeat them by means of a political takeover. However, even that will be hard.
And, because of this, I believe it's in our best interest to negotiate with them. They're not bad people; just their recent actions have been bad. If we open the table, talk to them, and see if we can come to an agreement as to where both the South Koreans and the Theocrats can exist in harmony, we will be much better off; both militaristically and politically.

You wasted our Saturday, no deal for you.
Voted Parrot.
You have been a Theocrat and you know how things work easy in our Community.
You know our economy model, that works by letting work only Theocratic Companies to lower the probability that other players stay in our Country, lower the attempts of PTO.
With the introduction of the citizenship we realized that we can apply a completely different economy and social model, and after we spoke with old players from SK, we agree for a pacific living together. Reference:

Is this being bad? I don't think so.
We tried the path of diplomacy, Japan chosen the path of brute force attack (and for the reason you listed above, we won).
We put down all the conditions old SK and Japan wanted, about alliances, economy, freedom and armies.
We come in SK with the thought to not shoot neither once.
We tried to be diplomatic, but it looks like JIA wanted to apply our motto:
"SILENT LEGES INTER ARMA!"
Sorry guys, we have more experience in that.
P.S.
Of course soon Reiji will come saying that you have been bought by us and this is a brainwashing campaign, as he already wrote in another article.

Silent Leges Inter Arma!
The summary of events is that the Theocrats arrived some 14 days ago (and as you pointed out) ignoring us on the way in up till saturday.
They then gave us 12 hours in a tight situation to try come up with some agreement that would encompass their desires, the eSK desires, eJapan desires and included eChina and eRussia.
We actually almost got there but the loose ends couldn't be tied up to everyones satisfaction.
The contract as it stands is about 90% complete but as Mr. Sparta points out - Peace is no longer an option.
@Alfagrem, the situation was tight as you say, but Japan pressed the button to attack SK.
Japan trigged all the mess (or fails) that followed this decision.
vegaicm: if reiji comes just send him away "nicely"
voted!
Or you could say that the Theos triggered this mess. Blame is easy to place.
When you try to find an agreeement you don't declare war and attack a region.
It's your fail...

Gee Parrot, you sure have big morals, standing up for the little guy. I can't think of a single situation similar to this where you didn't help *cough*SWITZERLAND*cough*
The fact is this morning the final battle for Chungcheongnam-do could have gone either way.
As long as we only have to win on narrow fronts, then simple luck can place a victory in our camp.
Since the theos are determined to only own one region, they always place their victory on the toss of the die in the final few seconds of overtime.
Well, we've won all the important one's and will continue to. Please propose another DoW. We are just waiting in anticipation of another childish decision.
Haha! Now Parrot the Theocrat comes to tell us that we can't win. He even admits to having been part of their organization and we're to assume he doesn't have sympathies for them?
This is even more blatant than the Theocrats' other attempts at infiltration!
Reiji don't.....
Reiji, seriously, you're making Japan look bad. Hide under a rock until things settle down.
Reiji, did you still not understand that my comments about infiltration were all meant to be a bluff and a waste of time for you?
One thing only, please introduce me some real South Korean player. Please, only 5 ppl, not more. Before doing that, please stop writing this kind of bull***t: "the hard work that so many South Koreans put into recreating the nation"
Anyway, its a good article .
Reiji just grow up, and pls dont act like a 6years old child. It would be better to your nation, if you keep your mouth shut.
