A Message To Phuebra

A Message To Phuebra

Greetings,

The First Empire has long believed that, through friendship, the nations of Ardia may share jointly in the fruits of prosperity. Our region of Ardia has been an engine for economic growth for quite some time yet the prosperity this brings with it has not benefited Phuebra or her People. Indeed, Phuebra has been a nation which has been struck by many issues and challenges, and one which the First Empire has not reached out to. I would like to rectify that by visiting with the Government of Phuebra to establish a firm friendship with our Southern neighbours, to see where Rokkenjima may be of assistance, and to see Phuebra embark upon the path of prosperity and plenty which I feel it is most deserving of.

For these purposes I look forward to a visit to your nation at your convenience so that we may lay the foundations for a new partnership between Phuebra and Rokkenjima. Knowing which areas are in greatest need of attention prior to this meeting will assist me in drafting a plan to work from. I look forward to your reply.

Respectfully yours;


Empress of Rokkenjima
Princess of Arovium

Your imperial majesty,

I am truly honoured to receive a letter like this from the Empress of an Empire that is so honourable as yours, and an Empire that has so much history and a proud culture. Historically our people have always viewed Rokkenjima as our big brother, culturally, we might differ, but we feel that our people are siblings, which is i why i am very happy to see this sign of friendship of you and your nation.

And yes indeed our nation has had some blows the last decades but we can't blame your nation for not getting involved as all of these conflicts were incredibly complex and there were so many sides that getting involved would only make things unnecessarily more complex.

Now however there is a clear divide in our nation, people who want to see our nation thrive and those who want to see her destabilize and shatter into pieces, i am happy to know that you aren't on the latter side, as we have also seen in your reply on the latest terror attacks that have shocked our nation. So i see loads of potential in a new friendship between our nations, in all possible ways, militarily, economically, culturally and diplomatically.

So i am looking forward to welcome you in my presidential palace in our great capital city of Khyat!

Respectfully yours;

Son Chariya,
President of the Free Federal Republic of Phuebra

A Message To Phuebra

I have seen, first hand, turmoil in my lands, suffering, strife and grief and all the things they bring with them. That we have been blessed to eradicate such things from our lands through much blood and sweat, and many tears, is a hard lesson to learn. It is my hopes that, through the experiences Rokkenjima faced, we may be best positioned to aid Phuebra in this era of your own grief and turmoil; to see a day where peace confers her blessings upon each and every Phuebran and your People know the bounty of prosperity that we have known since the conclusion of the Second Patriotic War. Despite our distance in past times I shall be honoured to join you in Khyat to chart our path forward and see the Phuebrans finally know the peace, safety and stability they have long been so deserving of.

Until I shall be able to speak with you in person I send only my best of wishes.

Respectfully yours;


Empress of Rokkenjima
Princess of Arovium

The Imperial Ryūsei landed carrying the Rokkenjiman delegation consisting of Empress Evanthe and Princess Kyōko. "Look at the trees," Kyōko said as the plane lowered, which brought a grin to Evanthe's face. "What?" she asked as she noticed, which left Evanthe to smile. "Your sister often pointed out the most mundane of things, those things that brought joy to a child like ducks in a stream resting upon rocks or a cloud that's shaped like a familiar character or animal, and just stay in that moment in awe. It's...I've missed that part of her, and even with wholly different lives no one can say you're not an Anselmo." Kyōko stayed silent for a moment before noticing a tree that seemingly made the shape of a heart with its neighbour, immediately pointing it out to Evanthe before turning away briefly, "...and this confirms it, doesn't it?" she said with a chuckle.

As the two waited for their welcome Evanthe hugged Kyōko before departing the plane. "I'm so happy you're home, once Asuna returns I'm sure you two will have much to speak of. As for today when you wish to give your opinion please do so, you're not some lackey here with me. You will be respected." Kyōko responded with a nod as the two walked down the staircase of the aircraft.

As the rain season had just started in Phuebra, the welcoming delegation was standing in heavy rain for a few minutes, with the soldiers standing as if there wasn't anything going on, which was probably the case for them considering the fact they all grew up in this climate. And as the plane of the Rokkenjiman delegation landed, in Kyat International Airport, which was largely rebuilt after it was completely destroyed during the civil war but there were still some very damaged hangars visible, the rain stopped and made place for the normal humid, tropical weather. Since the civil war, there have been several international delegations visiting Phuebra, but not of the representatives had been this big and influential, especially from a country as influential as Rokkenjima, so it was made sure the Empress would get a grande entrance. A row of soldiers stood next to the end of the staircase of the plane as they saluted the visitors. As the visitors walked down the staircase, a band dressed in traditional Phuebran clothes, started playing the Rokkenjiman anthem, while the Phuebran and Rokkenjiman flags were both risen next to each other.

As this spectacle unfolded, Sar Rothanak, one of the personal assistants of the President, walked towards the Rokkenjiman delegation, bowed and said "your imperial highnesses, i am too honoured to welcome you in our country, my name is Sar Rothanak, and i am one of the personal assistants of the President, she will welcome you very soon at the presidential palace, to which you shall be escorted to by our military, please follow me as i guide you to your limousine"

Evanthe would take the opportunity to walk ahead of her aid for a moment, enjoying the rain falling against her skin for a moment before falling back into line. "Cherish this," she said to Kyōko, "the sights, smells, sensations of a place you've never been before. As I've less of my career before me than behind me, you're certain to enjoy these moments countless times, but they'll never lose their significance I promise. Phuebra is beautiful, and her rains refreshing." Kyōko chuckled, "I won't be joining you in the rain but I agree, it is beautiful. I promise to cherish each moment, too."

Both Evanthe and Kyōko bowed respectfully to Sar Rothanak, "I am Empress Evanthe and this is Princess Kyōko," Evanthe replied. "We are humbled to be here with you in Phuebra." Both Evanthe and Kyōko followed Sar Rothanak into the designated limousine and awaited the moment where they would meet with the President. Taking in all the sights around them as scenery passed by their windows the two Rokkenjimans seemed to take in everything about the nation they were visiting. "Truly a beautiful nation," Kyōko said with a genuine smile, "thank you for hosting us."

The City of Khyat was around 10 minutes of a ride, as the limousine first passed the green tropical lands of Phuebra, where you would see rice farms and people harvesting it, soon in the distance you could see the skyline of Khyat, and as they entered the city they first had to drive through the slums which surrounded Khyat, the Phuebran government had put screens next to the highway, to in their words: "control the sound pollution" but in reality did it so that people who passed on the highway wouldn't see the terrible state of these neighborhoods, however, there were of course still spots where the screens couldn't completely block the view, and where the slums were still visible. To distract the Rokkenjima guests a little from the sight of the slums, Rothanak started a little small talk, "i hope the weather isn't treating you to badly, the rain season can be pretty tough, but if you ask me, i kind of love the tropical smell around you when the rain has just stopped, when i smell it, i always know i'm home."

Chariya had just finished meditating at her little altar with a Buddha statue, even though she wasn't raised very strictly Buddhist by her parents, she always loved going to the temple with her mother when she was young and meditate, it always brought her calmness and made her relaxed in stressed times, this was a stressful day, she was quite nervous to meet with the Empress of what is perhaps the most powerful nation on Mundus, and also a nation which has influenced Phuebra in many ways by being it's more powerful nation, were it economic, culturally, but also, as a woman, never really taken seriously in a very patriarchal society that is the Phuebran, the fact that the most powerful nation in the world was a woman, always gave her motivation to ignore the men who said she wouldn't make it, and look at her now, President of Phuebra. For this big occasion she had decided to put on a traditional Phuebran dress (think Thai traditional dress, since she was President she has always motivated Phuebrans, especially members of her cabinet to be proud of their culture, as before the civil war, Phuebran leaders and politicians always wore Karinyan (ooc: western) style clothes like suite and tie, according to her this was still a sort of bowing to it's former colonial rulers, but now Phuebra is free and proud. She was escorted by her advisors to the entrance of the President Palace where she could see the military escort that was escorting the Rokkenjiman delegation arriving at the palace, she walked down as the soldiers saluted her, the door of the limousine was opened by a Phuebran soldier and as the Rokkenjiman delegation stepped out of the car Chariya walked towards them, put her hands together and bowed, "your imperial highnesses, it is my biggest honour to welcome in my Palace and in my country, i hope you have enjoyed your travel!" Now one of the advisors handed her the presents for the Rokkenjiman delegation "we have some presents for your because we are so grateful for your visit, i here have a bottle of some of the best Phuebran rice wine out there, and i also here have for you traditional Phuebran dresses, similar to the one i am wearing now, now if you'd like to follow me, the cooks have made some wonderful meals for us, where we could start our talks."

“The weather is not an issue I assure you,” Evanthe would reply as Kyōko seemingly remained focused on the new sights around her. “We have places in Rokkenjima which can prove to be quite wet with rains that seem to fall with a vengeance, yet in every natural state there is a beauty to be found.” Kyōko, meanwhile, began to paint a picture outside the veil of screens and the itinerary of the day, turning to Rothanak. “You are proud of your land, your home, you have every reason to be, so I hope the statement I am about to make does not come off wrongly,” she paused, “but I can’t help but to notice scenes from just beyond. Our nations share quite the border and, I must admit, something doesn’t sit well with me that just beyond the Rokkenjiman border such conditions can exist; I do not fault you or your government in saying this, indeed I say this with shame that we could have been doing more far sooner for our neighbours. What is prosperity and abundance if you cannot share it with your neighbours, after all? There is a need here,” she again glanced toward the window before looking back to Rothanak, “and if we’re to embark upon the path of deeper friendship know that we will never judge, but will be ready to offer solutions to see our Phuebran brothers and sisters join in the bounty which is the right of every person upon this continent,” she concluded with a reassuring smile.

As Evanthe and Kyōko exited the limousine and approached President Chariya Evanthe was the first to speak. “Madam President, it is with humility and grace that I thank you for your hospitality on this day, especially with such relative short notice. While at several critical junctures in our joint history Rokkenjima’s voice has been silent I pledge to you that we shall no longer be your silent neighbours. From this day forward Rokkenjima commits herself to full and faithful friendship with her Phuebran neighbours, and it is my sincerest of hopes that by the end of our discussions we will have carved a path forward which sees Rokkenjima and Phuebra walk into a more prosperous and certain tomorrow. Again, I thank you.”

Both Evanthe and Kyōko accepted the gifts with joy and gratitude marked upon their faces, with Kyōko opening a case which an aid had been holding. “As is our tradition I present you with a bottle of Pyrenan Mead, brewed upon the confirmation that we would be meeting here today. Just two bottles have been brewed of this particular batch, one which I am presenting to you and another in the cellar of Pyrena Castle which shall be opened and shared with you one year from this date. On behalf of the First Empire of Rokkenjima, may we walk together from this day forward in friendship.”

They then followed President Chariya and wondered what the day ahead would bring for Rokkenjima and Phuebra.

Chariya was happy with the gift of the Rokkenjimans and joked "it's fortunate that foreign affairs is dealt by me and not the Prime Minister who is a Muslim, because then we would have to refuse most of the gifts we got from foreign delegations" she said as she laughed and winked. She then lead the Rokkenjimans to the conference room where on the table some Phuebran lunch and tea was prepared "please sit" she said as she grabbed some of the documents lying on the table.

"First of all I'd really like empathize how happy we are with all the help that Rokkenjima has already given whether it be vocally or fiscally, which really gives me hopes for our future relationship. I of course hope you both have seen the beauty of Phuebra but as you also have said, you have spotted the less good looking sides of our nation, the extreme poverty, and the situation some people live in, we slowly have been recovering from the civil war, but there are still so many issues we face, financially, militarily, we simply aren't capable enough yet to properly combat the terrorists and militias in our nation and we probably also wouldn't be able to defend out nation from foreign invaders, we of course get help from nations such as Vaguzia and Achkaerin, but these countries are with all due respect, half the world away, both physically and culturally, we need friends and allies close to us, so i must say i am really interested to hear your thoughts on how our nations futures should look like."

"Most fortunate that you get to enjoy this then," Kyōko said with a smile. "I still remember my first time with Pyrenan Mead, I got all manners of silly and poor Evanthe here had to scoop me up off the floor and help me back to my bed because it went down so easy, that by the fifth drink I hadn't realized just quite what I had done."

"We have to look after our neighbours after all," Evanthe continued with a smile, "if we allow our prosperity to spread, to share in the fruits of prosperity together, I believe that makes the world a truly better place. If you wish for my vision for our joint future it is one of trust, one of mutual aid and respect, and one which sees Rokkenjima assume its responsibility in ensuring that its Phuebran cousins have each and every opportunity which we ourselves have enjoyed. Rokkenjima does not wish to see an unequal relationship, no, we wish to see Phuebra re-assume its rightful place in Mundus as a nation of culture, a nation of peace and a nation of prosperity. I promise you, we shall absolve our prior sins of ignoring your plight by fully devoting the efforts of Rokkenjima toward helping the Phuebran Government and People address the issues before them, ensuring they have an equal voice and seat in the community of nations, and removing any avenue which trouble-stirrers may wish to exploit in questioning the Phuebran Government. I am prepared to offer billions in development aid, assistance in ascending to the MAEA so that we may share our nuclear technologies with Phuebra to enable it to aim for a sustainable energy future, and a relationship which will see Rokkenjima capable of providing every advantage to the Phuebran Government and Armed Forces in ensuring that the future all Phuebrans deserve is realizable. Not ten years from now, but within the next few years. We have been poor friends, poor neighbours, in allowing things to fall so deep into the abyss and for that I am sorry but," Evanthe sighed, "I'm going to do all I can to make that right. You are our friends, and I promise that the First Empire will do all within its abilities to be the truest and most stalwart friend to Phuebra and her People."

"In that vein," she continued, "where do we begin? How may we be of the most assistance here, today?"

"Well, to be quite frank, i think the part in which help is most needed at the moment is our military, we still really lack the resources and material to properly equip our military, which really doesnt help us in the fight against terrorism and also in protecting our nation in general" Chariya said as tea was being served at the table.

"For instance, right now we dont possess any functional tanks or fighter jets, the ones we had have all been lost in the Civil War, also the equipment of our soldiers is very outdated, think about guns, helmets and other basic military equipment. So i was wondering whether some deal could be worked out in which maybe we could get our hands on older Rokkenjiman military equipment, which would still be a huge step upwards from what we have now."

"An other issue in which you could help us, is in the economic side, as neighbours i really think we could help each other, whether it would be in the form of a trade deal, loans, or easier visas for Phuebrans who would like to work in Rokkenjima, do you have any thoughts on this?"

Kyōko thought for a moment, jotted down a few notes, and looked back to Chariya.

"I do believe something could be worked out; at present Rokkenjima is looking to acquire several Siris-C main battle tanks with the first deliveries expected by the end of March. This leaves the Imperial Rokkenjiman Armed Forces with some 127 Sirius MBTs which will be available for sale and, given our confidence in the Phuebran government, we would be willing to add an exception to the rules regarding sales of Rokkenjiman military equipment to CSTO or Major-Non CSTO allies for such a sale. This sale would also coincide with our intent to offer Phuebra a grant in the interests of fighting terrorism, as such the costs of such a sale would have a minimal impact upon your budget."

"As for trade, the First Empire would be willing to offer Phuebra eased visas, an elimination of tariffs upon goods coming into the First Empire from Phuebra to be equally matched by an elimination on tariffs imposed upon Rokkenjiman goods within five years gradually to owe to the differences between our economies, as well as an International Developmental Grant to see Phuebra capable of building up its national infrastructure in a manner which enables the Phuebran Government to provide the best platform from which the Phuebran People may succeed. Furthermore, I would like to see an arrangement which sees Phuebran students capable of studying at the finest universities within Rokkenjima on likewise eased conditions. Finally, Abstergo Industries would be capable of providing Phuebra with a world-class data network, from fiber to cellular, and believe that we could talk of these details as well. In the modern economy data is capital, and we would wish to see Phuebra capable of having the best possible advantages in the new global economy. Given our shared border such work wouldn't be too extensive to achieve and we could fill the gap between building a native Phuebran network with Rokkenjiman wireless assets in the mean-time."

A slight glance could be seen from Chariya´s face

"That would be absolutely wonderful, with that being said, we would also probably need Rokkenjiman personell, to train the Phuebrans with these for them unknown tanks, would that be possible? Furthermore, i also think it would work in the benefit for both our nations, if we worked more together militarily, it is in the interest of your nation that your neighbour wont be a safe haven for foreign invaders or terrorists, so we could give each other the guarantee that we would protect each other if one were to be attacked? So would you be interested in a military treaty, and maybe with perhaps some add ons? "

"We would also like to return some favours economically, the same you offered us, but also things like for instance making tourism visas free for Rokkenjiman citizens, we would also be ready to offer Rokkenjiman companies willing to invest in Phuebra, exceptions for paying tax, of course some tax would still be have to paid, but significantly less than other foreign companies."

"But of course," Kyōko replied. "I shall see that a steady supply of replacement parts are provided as well as all support necessary to see your men and women utilize these assets to their fullest capabilities. As for your further military proposals these shall be fine," she continued, "I know that Phuebra has not been a focus of Empress' past and that's something that we can, and must, make up for now. I would wish to propose that Rokkenjima and Phuebra declare that an attack upon one of us is an attack upon the other; furthermore, with the shedding of members in the Cross-Straits, I hope that you shall consider at some point joining Rokkenjima and the Kingdom of Tytor in making the Cross-Straits something it never has been: an organisation truly focused upon the Cross-Straits region, one which advances all of our interests, and one which ensures our collective security against threats both internal and external. In that vein we may see economic opportunities as well, enhancing our co-prosperity."

"I am fully open to all economic proposals you may have in mind," she continued. "There's no reason why the prosperity the First Empire has enjoyed cannot transcend borders into Phuebra, and it is very much my hopes that in the coming months and years we shall see a Phuebran economic miracle. I know of several Rokkenjiman firms who would be more than pleased to invest in your nation and can direct them to the appropriate individuals to establish deals upon the conclusion of our meeting."

A little smile escaped from Choriya´s face, as she listened to the bright future view of Kyoko, and she was most certainly inclined to join her in that view, but before that could happen, there first had to be made and signed some paper work "I most certainly also see the future of Phuebra as one together with its neighbours, therefore i would gladly try to steer my nation into joining CSO, but maybe even more importantly for my country right now, on short term, is to have military reassurance, so i suppose it is time to put some of the matters we spoke about earlier, on paper, to give a real birth to our new friendship as nations, a treaty of friendship. "

Kyōko shared her smile, handing Choriya a tablet. "I took the liberty of drafting something as we spoke, give it a look over and let me know what you think?"

"I truly dont see a lot of negatives if any, i believe this treaty will serve the interests of the Phuebran people and that truly, is my only interest, this agreement will make sure that Phuebra has security, and is safe from foreign invasion or too much foreign intervention, it also allows our military to take back control of our own country, i am very happy to sign this treaty."

Signed,

Son Chariya,

"It seems that we are in agreement," Kyōko said as she accepted the Phuebran signed copy of the Treaty. "Are there any other matters you'd wish to address or raise? I am certainly hopeful for what the path of cooperation has ahead of us."
