Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

Orders:
-move 30% of troops stationed in Egypt (leaving 40% of total troops in country for defence) into Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq, begin invasion (use similar tactics as in Sudan, that is attempt to behead the government with a direct move toward the capital); the main objectives in Saudi Arabia will be Mecca and Medina
-start construction of another canal connecting the Mediterranean and Red Sea, this one is to be located on the border between Israel/Palestine and Egypt
-declare Suez Canal a neutral zone, all ships of any nation or faction not currently in conflict with Egypt may pass through freely (*secret*instruct inspection officials to allow ships carrying illegal materials to pass for a price*secret*)

To Arazim Co.:
We welcome your corporation setting up a branch in Alexandria. As for purchasing stock in the Suez Canal we can arrange that as well.

We would like it if your corporation would invest in the construction of the new canal planned for the Egypt/Israel border. You would be granted part ownership in the Canal.

To world:
The Egyptian government denies any and all involvement in the recent attack on civilian targets in Iraq, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia. The attack as best as our intelligence services have discovered, were done by a fringe group of radicals working for the illegitimate government of Egypt now in exile in Palestine. It was an attempt to ruin our good reputation.

To all bussiness around the World:
It seems that Europe and the United States has become hostile to bussiness, but we in the Republic of China have not. There are many benfits from setting up opperations in China.

1.) Low labor costs.
2.) Now with the demise of communism, Chinese government is repealing to relaxing all laws that apply to bussiness, thus reducing the red tape that bussniess have to go through
3.) Lowest tax rates in the world.
4.) Huge untaped market for goods.
5.) Great ports, making it easy to export goods around the world.

So Come to China and see how good China can be to bussiness.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Orders:
Start lower taxes so that they are indeed lowest in world.
Start a multi billion dollar campagin to get bussiness from the United States and Europe to move to CHina.

To China:
In light of the developing hostilities toward businesses across the globe, as well as our two nations enlightened approach of allowing our economies to flourish, we suggest that formal trade between Egypt and China take place.

To global corporations:
Egypt seeks to regain the status of its past, in light of this we have decided to make our nation the meeting place between East and West.

We are in control of the Suez Canal, the primary exchange point between Asia and Europe. In order to compensate for the demand on the Suez Canal we are constructing the Khenu Canal on the Israeli border.

Lastly, in order to reestablish Alexandria as the trading post of the Mediterranean, the city of Alexandria is being declared a free city. All corporate laws are abolished, the Egyptian government encourages corporations wishing to make business exchanges to come to the Free City of Alexandria. We will even abolish taxes in Alexandria for all corporations, the benefits we collect from you will be indirect (via things such as increase trade revenues, etc.).

To America:
The Egyptian government denies all involvement, but we do feel partly responsible to the extend that the civilian lives lost were as a result of our inability to capture the illegitimate government.

We will provide compensation to the people of those countries by rebuilding their cities, homes, and economy.

As for your demands, we at this time are still deliberating.

Orders:
-start construction of a new port at Alexandria designed to handle massive amount of ships
-start construction of large naval battle at Port Said

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

To Egypt:
We think that this would be very wise for both our nations. We can also take this probussiness attitude and take it to Africa and Asia and turn both areas into a economic power house while the United States communist government creates ruin and proverty in their nation, we can become the new super powers of the world. We have seen the failings of communism first hand, and in fact the old leadership is on the front waves of our transformation over to a capitalist economy.

SUGGESTION
Perhaps the economic model should be separate from the political one (i.e. democracy does not equal good economy, despites does not stagnate the economy), rather base the economies of nations on their economic systems, that being said communist nations suffer economic penalties due to the lack of private ownership, free markets allow the economies to flourish. And then you have all the different systems in between. This seems more realistic.

Increase Your PM Length



Despite Chinese propaganda, the United States is indeed not communist for China itself has shown that communism has failed. In fact, the United States is SOCIALIST.
Your businesses are already based inside the United States, the country with the RICHEST consumers in the world. Why spend money to move them to China, a country which is world-known for its despotism. Why move to a country which is even more in poverty than the US, a country that doesn't even have a full coverege of ELECTRIC WIRING. You deserve better.
Here in the United States, it is mandatory for water, electricity, and sewers to be hooked up to each building built.
Americans are world-renowned for being hard workers, and with the recent disaster companies like you do not need a million workers who don't even want to be in the country. What you need is a LARGE, PRODUCTIVE and happy population working for your betterment.
TruthUSA, an American news agency, has estimated that it will take tens of BILLIONS of dollars to move to China and even longer to convert from English to Chinese. Why waste so much time when you can stay here gaining benefits that China CANT offer and a quality working population?
We understand your company does not enjoy taking risks. But which is the bigger risk: Moving all your assets to China, an economically unstable country with a very poor economy or staying in America, a country with a hardworking population and still one of the leading powers of the world?

To Egypt: It appears you may be having some troubhle. Would you like us to join in the war?

To Germany: *SECRET* Begin a campaign to keep companies in your country. We musn't allow China to get companies. */SECRET*

Actions:
Slash taxes on businesses by 50 percent
Begin bombing Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Iraq (SECRET: And have a few missiles stray off course and hit Iran)
Invest billions into Anti-Chinese propaganda.

Holy Roman Empire Remove this text

To Arazim Co.: The Empire is not "communist." We do allow free enterprise within our borders. You were banned for unorthodox business dealings. We will lift the ban, but we will keep a close eye on your business. The slightest hint of underhanded dealings, and your assets in the Empire are freezed and seized. We will also send troops as guards to protect the installations, but also to prevent your employers from burning everything if you are expelled from the Empire.

To Egypt and China: We would like to invite you to a "Tripartite Alliance." This will insure each member to come to the other's aid if attacked.

To Benelux: Would your countries like to join the Empire and receive the benefits thereof? You can keep your national governments; you just need to acknowledge the Emperor as head and heed his orders.

To the World: All diplomatic messages addressed to me are to be stated to the Holy Roman Empire (or just the empire for short).

MORE ACTIONS
-Dissolve the EU. As most of Europe is united under one leader, it serves no purpose.
-Post troops around Arazim Co. installations. Search and remove anything flammable or able to cause a fire. If it means that the factory workers will have to work in the dead of winter without central heating, so be it. Shoot anyone trying to sneak kerosene or matches into the facilities. Impose a no-smoking regulation. Install built-in firefighting systems during the construction of these buildings. Build fire stations nearby. Make sure to correspond future bans with rainy days.
-Decree a common currency for all Imperial nations. Gradually phase out the former monetary systems. Melt down all Euros to help produce new coinage.
-Begin government programs to employ the unemployed. Begin the construction of highways, dams, bridges, etc. to give the unemployed jobs, to stimulate the economy, and to help the well-being of Europe. Make the rebuilding of war-ravaged France top priority in this project.
-Lower business taxes.
-Add France's nuclear resources (including weapons) to the Empire's nuclear project. (I assume France has nukes).

To Holy Roman Empire (i.e. Germany):
We regretfully must decline your offer, Egypt as of date does not with to commit itself to any side in world disputes. In the interests of global trade we will therefore remain neutral in these conflicts and allow all sides to use the Free City of Alexandria as a place of commerce and diplomacy.

On another note, we request the return of Egyptian historical artifacts to our nation, your past governments seized these artifacts without the permission of a legitimate Egyptian government, we would greatly appreciate the return of said artifacts.

To Papacy:
The relations between our two states has remained cordial, and in the interests of these relations we would like for you to return the obelisk, which currently resides in Vatican City, stolen from Egypt by early Roman emperors. We ask for this so that we may proceed with the restoration of a true Egyptian state.

To China:
*secret*Both the Europeans and Americans have demonstrated to be ideologically incompatible with the views out two nations hold. It would be in our best interests to ally against any possible aggression from either the Europeans and Americans. Our two civilizations were once at the forefront of history, let us work together so bring it back to such an age.*secret*

Orders
-begin reconstructing the city of Men-nefer (i.e. the Greek Memphis) in true Egyptian architectural fashion, as well as other cities throughout the nation
-declare the captured norther part of the Sudan the Egyptian province of Nubia

To Egypt : Actually the obelisk is in the city of Rome, not within the Vatican, but we can "persuade" the city council to return it to you, if you like. We would prefer to keep it as it was always a reminder for the Roman people of the great love between our nations in former times.

To Egypt: As a token of our generosity, we hereby announce the free return of several Egyptian artifacts to their homeland. Since it is being done by UPS, however, the Egyptian government will still have to pay shipping and handling, but that's something you'll have to take up with UPS, not with me.

We agree with the Pope. The obelisk will have to stay in Rome, due to the fact that the fragile thing would crack in half if we tried to load it on to a cargo carrier.

To Pope: *secret* I think we should watch more than the US now. This new Egyptian government seems friendlier than the old one, but they could go either way very quickly. Also, the US has asked to join an alliance with us. I suppose that the new president may be in favor of peaceful relations, but the US of late has been very unpredictable. What say you?
