Agrippina falls. A pitiful defence crumbled against the onslaught of the Welsh attack, that has now claimed the three closest cities to the Welsh borders.
The liberated cities are rejoicing at their new found freedom, and the Welsh natives habve accepted the newcomers with open arms.
The buffer-zone is now complete.

Sorry about the absence, and the lack of notice, but I had no choice in the matter. Crisis over for now.

All insurrections have indeed been quelled, however in half a dozen years we have yet to turn the corner and catch up with our advanced neighbours.
What historical event caused the huge dip in the power graph ratings about 20 or so turns ago ?

In the far away lands known as 'Burchill's Semi Acc' I believe, a sorcerer was known to create city walls and granaries out of thin air. This had repercussions in our land of semi acc, and also demos's semi acc, and who knows how many others.
The sorcerer was quickly put to death and a balance was restored to the universe.....

I plead with you Brothers and Sisters to give up this butchery!
Remember the sanctity of human life. This is not war but genocide and must stop.
Of course the choice is your's but a total surrender followed by a plea for clemency by 'The Beast' should suffice. Total Roman disarmament and significant war reparations must be enough for the appalling bloodshed to end.
I may even allow 'It' to kiss my ring if suitable repentance for 'It's' very existance is shown.
St Jon the Pacifist.

Noble St Jon, how can you now ask us to change from our path, when it is you that sent us upon our crusade?
Was it not from your urgings, your teachings, and your warnings, that we found the courage and strength to take on this foe?
Was it not you that preached for many hundred years that peace could only be found after the Beast's destruction?
And are you not still at a very unpeaceful military readiness of 'At War'?
Methinks that this path we tread lies partly due to you, and thou cannot shake off thy responsibility in this matter so lightly.
Also, to think that TAFKAB does not deserve this treatment is to err on the side of insanity. After the years of aggression, oppression, and exploitation under a Roman dictatorship and hegemony, the time has finally come to show the Romans that they are none other than schoolyard bullies, and that bullies can be beaten.
Please, do not insult our intelligence by calling for peace with TAFKAB when you have always called for war TAFKAB and his heathen forces.
The war is in part your doing, but now that the dogs of war have been released, calling them back may not be so easy. We have invested alot into this campaign, and we intend to reap as much from it as possible. Just because you have changed your tune does not mean that we will follow suit.

The Beast of Rome was a term first used by St Jon the Noble, patron saint of Australia, to describe Shavlor and his diabolical actions towards other soveriegn nations.
The Aggressor Formerly Known As Beast, was coined a few hundred years ago by the Welsh people in outcry against Shavlor and his forces upon our emancipation from Roman shackles.
TAFKAB is The Beast of Ex-Rome, if you will, as Rome is no longer, as will be the case of TAFKAB himself....

My Children, the Maya and the Welsh see phantoms where they do not exist. I love all the people of this World and seek earnestly to avoid bloodshed. The maintainance of the Australian Armed Forces at a state of 'War Readiness' was a simple oversight and I am grateful that my error has been pointed out so that it can be rectified.
Despite constant reiterations of Australian Foreign Policy the World appears to be populated by profoundly deaf leaders. Let it be known that it is almost CERTAIN that Australia WILL NEVER go to war against any of her neighbours.
St Jon, Pure of Heart, Mind and Deed.

To all World Leaders, remember next time that our neighbourly cannonised Jon requests a 'crusade' that the word and deed of the 'noble' one seldom meet in the same place.
I'm sure that all here, apart from the newly elected ruler of the Northern Natives, will remember St Jon's calls for action against the Beast.
It is not that the Welsh people hold it against the Australians for not practicing the words that their preacher has preached, in fact, it has left all the more for us to gain.
We would however like the simply courtesy of admitance of Australian instigation in this matter, purely for the scholars of the future.
Simply bear in mind the lack of correlation between word and deed, and remember who has the largest, most military ready, and uninvolved, army in the world.
You have been warned....

Please My Children! Listen to the voice of charity and stop all this wanton butchery!
Whilst I confess that I urged upon the World to join with Australia in a 'Crusade' to rid the World of 'The Beast' none would hearken to my counsel and therefore Australia sadly had to find her own path to follow. I offered my light to you all but you refused to look upon it. I even allowed Lords Demosthenes and Sophix to Kiss my Ring, an honour bestowed to few, and yet this did not move them from torpidity.
Blame me not for the war you have unleashed upon yourselves for it was planned outside of my Counsel Chambers.
As for for the comments of Lord Demosthenes about the size and unengaged status of the Australian Military, it is all determined by geography. Australia has only a modest army when the length of her borders is considered and her Navy is scant enough to patrol her enormous coastline.
I will do stoop to give reply Lord Hextupal's sarcasm and allusions to ignoble motives.
Blessings Upon You All.
St Jon, The Beacon of Light in an Otherwise Dark World.

St Jon,
We need no excuses for our actions. We believe that this crusade is a noble one, and are not ashamed of it.
It is a shame that the one who first advocated it now vehemently trying to end it. I would not wish to offend my saintly ally and neighbour, but how can we commit to peace now? You have always stated, time and again, that any such crusade MUST be fulfilled to it's conclusion, and that is what is happening.
The Welsh people might even find it in their hearts to forgive the insipid Romans for their crimes of the past. But we simply cannot trust that a peace settlement will be adhered to.
Revenge is a deadly sin, as well you know my gracious friend, and can consume the soul beyond reason. It is my belief that TAFKAB will not be able to overcome his desires of this nature.
Perhaps if you were to act in an inquisitor's role he could be persuaded otherwise.....

Welsh intelligence reports a formidable Roman army heading towards Hispalis. Nine regiments were seen moving into formation for an upcoming battle. Amongst the regiments many musketeers were counted. Calvary were also seen, although the presence of cannons has not yet been confirmed.

Your public musings are most informative (and explain the rapidly rising green line on the power graph)
To the Australians: I am sending a diplomat to Darwin to formalise cordial relations. It should arrive in about 3 turns time. Please do not misunderstand out intentions - we come in peace.

The Indigenes of the Polar Cap are welcome to send a Diplomat though we insist that once his legitimate task is performed that he depart immediately. He will not be given passage across Australian land as we are nervous enough at a potential Mayan Spy placed so close to us.

Hispalis holds out against TAFKAB's crack suicide squad. Despite their best efforts to save the Roman forces from certain death, Welsh regiments could not stop them from meeting an unfortunate end. Some Welsh Pikemen even gave their lives to try to save the suicide soldiers, but it was to no avail. Nine Roman regiments of musketeers and cavalry could not be saved.
In a bid to prevent this from happening again, Welsh forces have overtaken Aquila. The Australian border with the romans is now beginning to shorten in length. Perhaps now Noble St jon can begin his much desired demilitarisation.
In honour of this latest series of events Demosthenes has been crowned Prince Regent of Wales. I now ask that others join me in removing Roman troops and cities out of the hands of TAFKAB, for he seems intent upon sending his oppressed subjects to their death....
