We will accept this deal under 3 conditions 1.HMKX or Japan will also not initiate hostilities with us 2.HMKX will stop printing stuff about the UFOS(AKA your posts) 3.HMKX will agree to meet in a nuetral location to discuss a peace treaty with UFOS because we don't want war any more than you. Plus we also don't want to be called the Crazy Nation anymore
Armed African-Americans have risen up in the ARL, demanding a slice of their own territory to create a functioning independent state they can live in. Leaked documents show a large amount of funding from the UKNS. The Prime Minister, when pressed, exploded into an angry flurry of words at a journalist, admitting that yes, the UKNS funded and continues to fund an aid this group, as well as one for Native Americans.
TUN suggests not their own Independent state under their total rule, but a state which they can find the most sanctuary and have their own freedoms. As for the Native American population, TUN has supported their own Indigenous peoples for decades and has given them the same rights and advantages as regular citizens, along with their own land in Canada. We don't know for sure about any states opinions...
The families responsible for supplying the AFA Party have been detained and put behind bars after pleading guilty. A percentage of their wealth has gone to rebuilding the Southern states. Georgia keeps asking for a chunk of Alabama, but it won't happen. TUN isn't supporting the same project as the UKNS to find land and sanctuary for the black and native American population.
Javor is going to build some expressways in Tennessee. Here's the highway shield: Also, Kentucky is letting us build one thru Kentucky connecting Nashville to Cincinnati. Here are the routes they're taking: Construction starts immediately and ends 1133.
TUN has chosen a new flag to describe The United North (I don't know how to make a flag online that would look good, so I googled it because it's quick and easy) The Flag is a mixture of the United States and Canada flag, due to respect the American states under the rule of TUN, as well as Canada, where the main government resides. The United North Armed Forces have adopted a new camouflage pattern, Flecktarn. This camo pattern was derived from the German military but since it was so approved and liked enough by TUN military, it has been adopted and separately designed for separate environments, such as Desert, Jungle, and Woodlands (default) The winter camo is a different version though, and features the infamous tiger stripe pattern: Perfect for winter warfare, although depending on the exact region, soldiers might just wear solid white camo depending on if they are in a forest environment or not. As for tanks and military vehicles, patterns may vary depending on the tank division and personal tank crew, but the default camouflage besides a solid colour is Flecktarn.
To make transportation much easier, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana will now have open borders to each other as if they were regular states. Borders are still closed to countries outside though of course. TUN would also ask for Javor's permission to open up their borders to Arkansas, Mississippi and Alabama. Everyone in the US is of the same people, they are all Americans, it would be harsh to restrict travel to their neighbouring states. A big project funded to extend a very long pipeline to Alaska has started. The pipeline will run from Fort Nelson, British Columbia, Canada, all the way to Fairbanks, Alaska. The pipeline will continue through Yellow Knife, Yukon. This project is going to take a lot of work and money, but in the end, will give thousands of jobs to Canadian and Alaskan citizens and allow a cleaner and safer way to transport energy. The pipeline will be finished in 1977, it is 1973 now.
TUN has developed a gunship known as the Lockheed AC-130. It is a heavily armed long-endurance ground attack aircraft with highly sophisticated sensors, navigation, and fire-control systems. This beast of an aircraft will be introduced to the airforce in 5 posts. As well as the Lockheed C-5 Galaxy, a very large, yet extremely expensive strategic airlifter capable of carrying 180,000 pounds worth of military equipment and cargo. This beast is so expensive yet very much worth the cost due to its capabilities. The Lockheed C-5 Galaxy will enter the airforce in 6 posts. TUN is also working on new anti-submarine aircraft but that information is disclosed for now. As for TUN's computer and electronic technology, it is all being revamped. The electronics used at this moment are very outdated and would be outclassed by anyone, and unfortunately should their ill superiority in the SFA war. Radars, sensors, navigation devices, communication and others are being reworked and new equipment will enter the UNAF in 4 posts.
Pleased with their past hospitality, Malaysia joins NPAT and becomes a full-fledged member. With mild tensions rising in Malaysia and small communist groups popping up, Malaysia would love to be under the protection of their much stronger allies. Thankfully the military that TUN rebuilt for Malaysia back then is enough to keep rebel groups down. TUN will help Malaysia in time of need.
The HMKX Empire has released their newly redesigned E-3. This is likely a direct response to the TUN's newest Aircraft. The HMKX Army is not very special other than the fact it is HUGE AS HELL (A result of the massive population), and therefore HMKX is priding itself on its Air Force. (OOC: Consider this New Jet two parts MiG-29, one part MiG-29M, and one part F-16 with an eastern design philosophy.) A multirole fighter designed to be mass-produced and dominate the air, the hull is almost identical to the older E-3 design and the current E-3 could be reconverted into the new design. High-caliber machine guns and Air-to-Air Missiles sit on this Aircraft. While having a low rate of fire, the Machine guns could rip apart the Empire's wildest TUN expectations with ease. (Hint, the F-16 is the Empire's wildest expectation's rough equivalent. IRL, the MiG-29 could rip apart an F-16 with 3-5 hits.). Extensive computer suites dot the jet in order to assist with missions. It is twin-engine, with a top speed of 2230 Kilometers Per Hour at high altitudes. It undergoes rugged and simple creations, with even the computer suites being attempted to be easy to maintain. Making up for its suboptimal thrust-to-weight ratio is its supermaneuvrability (OOC: It's real, look it up). HMKX plans to replace the existing fighters with these. (OOC: Unlike IRL, they use a lot of Aluminum which allows its faster speed (Guinea, Wink Wink)). Complete in 3 years to completely replace them considering the sheer scale, but their first trial shall be against a certain racist African Country. (OOC: a rough match for the F-16 IRL, but it's a slightly less competent all-purpose jet and a slightly better air superiority fighter.) Radars are also continuously being developed along with various other sensors. The Yi Sun-Shin-Class Carriers are online, with 6 units ready to project the Empire's might all over the world. They are undergoing quiet, hushed up sea trials. They have been disguised as the Empire's currently existing Calamity-II-Class Carriers but considering how large the Yi Sun-Shin-Class ships are compared to the older models, it's difficult to see how long they'll remain secret for. One or two will be deployed to test them out on a certain racist African Country. Depending on their combat performance, another 2 might be ordered. Submarines, Submarines, Submarines! Lots and lots of submarine are being created to disrupt sea trade all around the world. HMKX is making more and more computer chips, they've just created a model cheap enough for public use. They are trying to be top of the line, and they are succeeding. They're planning to sell 4-bit computers to the Public soon.
HMKX-South Africa relations continue to decline. Arguments are now a common sight in the OEO, with HMKX and South African officials walking out of the conference room and engaging in creative shouting matches. South Africa refuses to end Apartheid and is threatening to reassemble its Nuclear Weapons. HMKX keeps making rash moves out of anger because South Africa keeps insulting it about race. Little does anyone know, HMKX wants South Africa to do this. They want a war, and they want to curbstomp South Africa and is continuously inflaming tensions in South Africa. This is but a stepping stone for a long-term plan. Meanwhile, in Equatorial Guinea... HMKX, with the assistance of Guinea is now commencing a plan to remove Macias Nguema from power. They will try to pull an Iraq, because straight-up invasion might not work right. Young revolutionaries are being contacted and rescued in order to help them remove Macias from power and install a democracy. The true motive of this coup is an attempt to gain another foothold into Africa. HMKX is encouraging expansionism along its African allies, with Guinea having attacked and annexed the Sierra Leone and the New Abyssinian Empire attacking and annexing Somalia. HMKX is also attempting to dethrone the Moroccan King, without outside assistance. HMKX is attempting to take advantage of POLISARIO's attempts to establish an independent state, and HMKX is infiltrating the throne. 10 posts until the plan can finally succeed. Libya is also one of HMKX's many African projects. There appears to be some people who want to do a coup. Many military officials seem to want to seize power, might ride on their coattails than betray them because they are not going to be good for the country. Nations in Africa are not exactly eager to become HMKX allies, but if there is a dictator they allow them to continue existing for as long as they are not too brutal nor degrading the economy.
Now that The relations between our two countries have started looking up we would like to request admission to the OEO
WORLD ANNOUNCEMENT TUN has started another worldwide organization, this time instead of being a military pact and alliance, it is focusing on one of the direst topics as of now. The Environment. Although our climate seems to be fine to the common folk, United North and European scientists have gathered deadly information which shows that our world could see a huge shift in climate within the next two or three decades. It is starting now though and has been going on ever since the Industrial Era in the 1800s. Scientists claim that if we don't start caring for our world, we would see sea levels tremendously rise due to melting ice IN our lifetime. It isn't only about pollution though, millions of animals lose their habitats every year to deforestation, and continuous dumping of garbage and plastics into our oceans will cause devastating results to our precious marine life. We cannot keep living in a world that we are destroying every day; it may seem fine right now, but very shortly it will become a disaster, we will deeply regret it. That's why The United North has started a worldwide organization made up of hundreds of countries to prevent a rotten future for our children, and our children's children. In this organization, we will combat deadly commissions, stop pollution, prevent deadly harm to our oceans, our environment and our animals. We will start the process of using clean energy and becoming a more productive world... This organization is called the World Environment Organization (WEO). This is not a war pact, an alliance, or anything to do with war, this is only an organization full of countries who don't want to see our world fall to shambles. Even your worst of enemies can be in this organization, but we are all fighting for the same thing. A better world. The WEO has already invited many countries to join the organization, and many have accepted. These countries include: North American Countries: The United North California South Dakota Oregon Wisconsin Rhode Island New Mexico Illinois Florida Mexico South American Countries: Venezuela Panama European Countries: Finland Germany Switzerland Austria Romania France Spain Portugal Andorra Monaco Greece Italy Bulgaria Middle Eastern Countries: Israel Qatar UAE Kuwait African Countries: Ethiopia Botswana Zimbabwe South Africa Guinea Asian Countries: Malaysia Singapore Laos Vietnam Japan Oceanic Countries: Papa New Guinea Australia New Zealand (Note: I did not include any countries which were colonized by current players countries. At least I hope I didn't, and if I did forgive me) The WEO HIGHLY encourages other countries such as Javor, the United Kingdom of the North Sea, the United Federation Of States and the HMKX Empire to join the World Environment Organization. As a member, you would have to be involved with various projects and meetings which would revolve around our world environment and the state we are living in. As a member, you would also have to start resorting to clean energy, such as nuclear, hydro, wind and solar. Members who don't show any sign of participation and show tardiness will be excluded. Although, just because your country is becoming clean VERY slowly, it doesn't mean you are being tardy. Not showing any performance and lack of respect for other nations and your environment will lead you into trouble. Remember, this is not a war pact or military alliance of any kind. Regardless of any negative affiliations with other neighbouring states, we are all working together to make a better world. We ask who were invited to consider joining, the WEO would love to have you! Also, the main HQ is located in Manhatten in New York City. The Headquarters has already been built and each country has been given a seat, with plenty of empty seats to go around.
We want to join. In lots of times in the past, we've installed solar panels on gigantic solar farms. Solar powers some area in Javor, but we're about to set up a gigantic solar incentive system, bigger than ever. We will pay people in every state to install solar panels. Not only will we pay for the entirety of the expense of solar panels, we will pay them CH$0.02 per kWh extra produced that they don't use. We will also be raising money using special license plates for CH$7.50 extra when registering for a license plate. Here are what they look like:
Welcome, consider yourself a member! We appreciate your progress and dedication to protecting the environment already, keep going so we can make the world a better place! Map has been updated
