You have my permission, Oh True One, to order your diplomat due north through the land of Inca. But after two or three hundred leagues (2 or 3 tiles) you will be entering Spain. I see that you have already requested permission from Madrid.

Good to see that someone else has the piece of mind to display prudent vigilance.... Keep the rest of you bastards honest...

'Bout time you people took the war effort seriously and at least went to standby. My defence industry almost went bust 'cause there wasn't enough war mongering going around. But we're up and running again

Greece joins what cynics would describe as a stampede to "Alert" status. But what else can we do?

It is to be hoped that this doesn't lead any nations to feel the need to go to a full war alert status, as things are tense enough in our little world!

Turn 59 to Madrid.

My Children, I am saddened that there should suddenly be an upsurge in Military Readiness and have Prayed for you all that love will enter into your hearts and you shall seek the path of peace. The War of words between several of you has equally distressed me with wild accusations thrown back and forth with ever greater venom behind them.

'Seek reconciliation and compromise for it is the way of the Lord!' Book of St Jon v.III c.V

Unfortunately with all who border the 'Sacred Realm' increasing their state of Military Readiness I have had to accept the pleas of my Generals and do likewise. Do know that this was done with a heavy heart and the moment I see that peace has returned to the World I shall revoke my commandment.

Brother Tomas, Beloved Neighbour, I beg permission for a missionary to come under your protection and pass through your lands to the far off lands of the mythical Ink-Car people. If these mysterious people of folklore really do exist I would desire to establish a small chapel so as to show them the ways of civilised man.

St Jon, Calm amidst Turmoil.

Again Brother Tomas finds himself agreeing with his esteemed colleague St. Jon...

Roleplay or no Roleplay, Brother Tomas feels that certain words, actions or behaviours are not fitting for this forum without the Whole World agreeing what is acceptable...

Brother Tomas feels after much deliberation that he has found the true meaning behind the usage of the word 'bastards' by our Australian neighbours...

Obviously breaker is not at war with anyone - nor is there any threat of one, therefore he must be ON ALERT because he doesn't trust his own population...? Spain cannot as yet thing of any other context as to call his neighbours 'bastards' would be such an obvious 'faux pas' that we cannot even consider that that comment may be aimed at us... Besides, Spain is a Catholic nation, any perpetrators of the bastardisation of our nation would be summarily 'introduced to the Horse' for their part in Heresy, of course!

To our Welsh and French friends - feel free to use our great avenues in the interests of the furthering of World peace!

Turn 59 ==> Stavros

As a reaction to all other nations raising their military readiness, Wales has been forced to do the same. This is just a precautionary measure however, and to prove our innocent intentions we have offered peace treaties to all and sundry.

We hope that you will all agree to the peace proposals, for Wales is the weakest of all nations, lingering far behind everyone in science, population and rankings. We can offer no threat to anyone, and hope that the over-zealous among you do not try to take advantage of this.

Turn 60 to Madrid.

His Purity notes with satisfaction that tempers seem rather less frayed. This is a cause for happiness as conflict, even when not on the battlefield, is still at odds with the love and peace that is his Saintly desire.

Beloved Inca, welcome to the shores of France! You needs not trek all the way to Avignon to establish your Embassey but merely seek the well known Beach Resort of St Tropez.

As a result of our fruitful private negotiations I trust that the Honourable Xenophon will accept our offer of a Peace Treaty. All such things are but stepping stones to a long lasting and mutually fruitful friendship.

St Jon, Serenity admidst Strife.

Yes Welll... I understand that you folk are hard up in your struggling cultures, but the wave of pitifull requests for charity that I've had can hardly go without mention.
I briefly considered the request of Mech. Clock. for Machine tools from the French..... Briefly...

But Repulbic for machine tools from the Welsh.... who you trying to kid mate?

Listen.´... I'm all for fair trade and all... but the emphasis is on the FAIR. Hey for all I know you bast...(oops.... almost said the B word, and we all know thats bad (notice smiley!!))

Aherm... Hey, for all I know you people send out these wierdo requests to every culture at every turn, and it is indeed only a flick of the wrist to have them dismissed, but I do wonder whether even within your own heart of hearts you consider them fair...

Oh... And little message to the Welsh, my esteemed and well endowed, peace loving, tree hugging, lollipop sucking neighbours. Get your Diplomat away from my cities.... If I'm not mistaken, this is the same recalcitrant that I threatened with expulsion even before we all invented pointy sticks!!! Back from his travels is he? Fine... Good... I'm chuffed, just get the guy from blocking my roads... (I'll give you half a turn before I turn nasty (smiley alert!!!!)

Greece finds that we must agree with Australia after having just received a ludicrous ( and even insulting) trade offer from France.

And we notice that St Jon made mention of fruit twice while speaking of negotiations between our two countries. Perhaps he was thinking of his lunch, for nothing has been accomplished in those talks that could even remotely be described as fruitful. We begin to lose patience...

Again, the Incan war generals are aglow with joy at the sounds of brewing war. Though their mood is somber when discussing the situation with their leader, it is obvious to Quinns that they cannot wait for glorious battle! Quinns is much older than his younger generals, and, he likes to think, much "wiser".

Breaker Morant, within a stone's throw of Incan cities, just giddy for battle, and now Xenophon threatening France due to an apparent insult from a trade offer?? Their generals, obviously, are pushing them to settle their problems with the sword.

"Turn away from such talk before it is too late! If you live by the sword, you die by the sword." (I just made that up, pretty good huh? )

Turn 61 to Madrid.

My Children, I am deeply troubled by the militaristic talk that has spread across the land. The humble disciples of mine that make up the French nation are, like myself, 'Fruitarians', in that it is my belief that 'all life', not just human or even animal, is sacred. It is true indeed that an enormous value is placed upon fruit in France for to 'murder' a potato or an onion is a mortal sin and treated in the same way as killing your very brother. Please Noble Xenophon do know that the very highest compliment, apart from kissing my ring, in France is to be associated with fruit for it is the very life-blood of Civilisation.

If, as seems obvious, neither Australian or Greek Governments wish to be offerred the exchange of knowledged gleaned by the scribes of my congregation then be assured that no such offers will be made in future. This seems a recipe for forever languishing in the trough of ignorance but the choice is yours. Please accept my sincerest Blessing to help cure the wounds of any perceived insult but know that none was intended. You are both beloved to me and your happiness is ever in the forefront of my mind. I am mortified to think that by the actions of my Disciples you have been caused hurt or thought yourselves treated with disdain.

Love and Peace unto you all.

Blessed be My Name,
St Jon, Humility amongst Pride.

Honorable St Jon,

I see that my diplomat has, perhaps, caused you to see the world in a way, similar to the Incans. We, also, believe that "all" life is Sacred. The gods (oops, I mean) Gods represent the Earth in all of it's wonder. We thought that the single God that you worshipped was only concerned with humanity and no other forms of life. It is good to see that you are beginning to see the truth.

Spain is noting with concern an increase in agitation between her fellow nations...

Up until now, all disputes have been settled fairly and amicably between nations - it
would be a sorry state of affairs if this suddenly changed after all the good work that
has been accomplished!

Turn 62 to Madrid.

My Beloved Children,

'Tis surely the 'Season of Goodwill' for at last an Exchange of Knowledge unrepugnant to My Australian Brothers has been found and through a series of lengthy negotiations, that truly can be described as 'fruitful', tensions with 'He who I love as my own child', Xenophon, seem to have eased. It is my dearest wish that my joy might be completed by his beauteous signiture upon the Peace Treaty forwarded to him.

If only the Virtuous Leader of the Australians were not so shy of sharing his cartographical knowledge he would be aware that he steps far too close to the Holy City of St Etienne and that his Archer is well within the Holy Land. A swift volte face upon his part would indeed prove most condusive to the burgeoning friendship between our Nations. Having established the loving relationship so long desired with my Brother of the Cloth, the ever gentle and just Tomas, and seemingly set fair for a similar state of affairs with Beloved Xenophon I would trust that my Northern Sees could relax in the knowledge that they too enjoyed a World free from aggression and hate.

Legendary Inca's know that even now my Missionary treads his weary path toward you in the hope of establishing a small Chapel. He was chosen personally by me as he has foresworn alcohol and begged to be allowed to travel unshod, hamstrung and carrying a Millstone around his kneck. Never again shall a similar affront to caused to another Nation as was to the Greeks by the ungodly behaviour of one of my disciples.

A thousand Blessings Brother Tomas for once again your wonderous 'Horse' was called into action. This time an entire chorus of a 120 Heretics sang in my praise and the congregation in Tours fair swooned with joy at the glory of my being! Many begged to join them that they might show their devotion but few could be spared for the streets did'st run thick with purified blood and I do'th need to think of earthly problems such as urban hygiene once in a while.

Do not think I forget you, Oh Primitive Sheperds, for my love extends even to the lowest of mortal beings. My Blessings upon you and your grazing animals at this time of celebration. All others may think you of no worth but to me you are as precious as a freshly picked strawberry and should you visit Paris I shall surely let both you and your lawfully, under Welsh law that is, wedded Ewe both Kiss My Ring.

Hallowed Be My Name!

St Jon, Tranquility amongst Tempest.

The Welsh people are being forced to to take a long hard look at their lifestyle, as the consumption of ale and assorted liqour are believed to be the major contributor to Welsh economic and scientific stagnation.

This is not something is is going down well in the villages, where the tavern is the common meeting place, and which brings in huge amounts of revenue. the closing of these establishments is not likely, however, the government may insist that they close for at least 4 hours per day.
