[b]Kwedolobhakalle, United Vanjanan Empire[/b] An orchestra played the [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWRmNDrAFbk]Vanjanan anthem[/url] as Jade Sigfrid IV walked out onto one of the many palace balconies to address the crowd below him. Despite what one might expect, there was actually a large variety of people there. The rich stood right next to the poor, with people of numerous original nationalities gathered together without any sign of tension. However, everyone knew that the moment someone announced an economic reform, everyone would suddenly gain an Us vs. Them mentality in regards to wealth. Aside from the fact that a tax cut for the rich would start a civil war, there was little discrimination. Over all the years of Anhängare av Stjärna Frö influence, social status became less of a pyramid and more of a liquid. Still, there were plenty of people on a boat. "People of Vanjana!" He said, loud enough that all could hear his heavy accent. "A new age is upon us! The Cartographer's Guild has discovered a new land, one which other nations have decided to exploit. Obviously, we too shall be colonizing this new land!" The people cheered, and Sigfrid waiter for the noise to die down before continuing, "We will be sending out four fleets, the first will be made up of 2 Barques and 3 Galleys, and will be loaded with 500 regulars and 1200 colonists, along with assorted building materials, food, livestock, and trading supplies. The second will be made up of 2 Barques and 4 Galleys, and be loaded with 500 regulars and 1500 colonists, along with the same materials as the first. The third fleet will be supplied with one Frigate and two Brigs, carrying 1000 colonists and 500 regulars, and it goes without saying what cargo they will carry with them. The fourth and final fleet will have the same makeup as the third fleet. These fleets will found a total of eight colonies, more than any other nation as of now! The colony locations have been chosen mainly for trade with other colonies and any natives, if they happen to exist." Another cheer was let out by the crown, and this time, Sigfrind raised his hands to quiet them down. All but a few followed the request, and those that didn't followed it just a small bit later. "Obviously, this will leave us with very few ships here at home. To make the colonization process cause less of a problem, I have ordered the construction of ten Brigs. While an expensive venture, I am sure that it will be worth the money to secure our position in this new land!" The crowd let out a final cheer, and Sigfrid retreated into the palace, satisfied with their enthusiastic reaction. [hider=Message to Queen Vestfall Orgadron] [i]February 19, year of the Yagdasradich 3922, contemporary year 1701 Queen Vestfall Orgadron, beloved of the Yagdasradich, The state of your nation has recently come to my attention. It has become, speaking with full honesty, an anarchic mess of competing zealots. Some that managed to escape the war came across my monastery, they were badly injured both from the war and their journey. They were struck by the wrath of the Cadzigrara, which had entered through their wounds, which we immediately cleaned and bandaged. Sadly, a few passed on and returned to their spiritual home, but we managed to save most. They told us of the war, and of the atrocities committed. Upon hearing of this, I was shocked that any person was capable of carrying out such crimes. You yourself have always been in the favor of the Yagdasradich, and they have smiled upon your Church, but these zealots can be nothing other than soldiers of the Cadzigrara. I have no doubt that you have already taken action, but I wanted you to know that we, the Anhängare av Stjärna Frö, fully support any action you may take. If you find yourself unable to stop the forces of evil in your nation, then we will pledge ourselves to ending that evil. I apologize for if I have offended you through my religious speak, for our beliefs do not prevent the truth or untruth of any other belief. I do hope that we will have a friendly relationship, for it would be saddening to see two beliefs with such similar values be driven apart over a false idea of exclusiveness. -Kvinnasomdyrkar Tessan Marina[/i][/hider] [hider=Message to the Cartographer's Guild] [i]The Jade sends his regards, brave men and women of the Cartographer's Guild. For your brave actions in discovering and charting the New World despite the obvious dangers of doing so, as well as your willingness to share this revolutionary discovery, Jade Sigfrid IV wishes to reward you. In the docks of Kwedolobhakalle, one billion Fryas await you. It is the sincere hope of the Jade that your successes continue, and that this reward assists in your efforts. -Foreign Minister Kettil Sebastian, United Vanjanan Empire[/i][/hider] [hider=Fleet Paths] [img=http://i.imgur.com/yBFzDyN.png][/hider]
