The interior of the private jet was silent save for the few murmurs that could be heard occasionally emanating from the security forces on board and every so often the rustling of paper. Matvey Naumov, the Minister of Foreign Relations of the USRSDG, looked at the source of the paper sounds and frowned slightly. The truth was the woman who made these sounds always unnerved him. He wasn't sure why but the fact that he had watched her grow from being a cheerful and laughing child who was fond of pulling pranks on him when her father let her roam free around the offices of his ministry, into the cold, distant and seemingly emotionless woman who now sat before him made him feel somewhat sad. The woman was Tsetsiliya Valentina Kuznetsov, the 26 year old daughter of Maksim Kuznetsov, one of the three founders of the USRSDG and its current leader. She currently served as the Minister of Trade of the USRSDG, a position she had proved worthy of on numerous occasions. To Naumov the efficiency she showed when she first gained her position was somewhat frightening, she always seemed to be working, he had never seen her drink; even now the Scotch she had been served by the stewardess was untouched, what unnerved him most of all was the fact that he could count on one hand the number of times he'd seen her smile since she'd become a minister. And those smiles, as nice as they were, had seemed off to Naumov, they lacked sincerity and almost seemed sinister to him. Tsetsiliya seemed to have noticed his staring and looked up from the book she was reading; "Is there a problem Minister Naumov?".
Naumov was startled by the sudden breaking of the silence but kept it from showing on his face; "No, everything is fine Miss Kuznetsov". Naumov responded calmly, he may have felt uneasy but he was experienced enough not to let it show. As Tsetsiliya scratched the scar on her left cheek and again focused on her book Naumov turned his attention to the third minister on the plane, Agafya Yevgeniya Tereshkova, the Minister of Foreign Trade of the USRSDG. Like Tsetsiliya she was a good looking younger woman but with blond hair and blue eyes as opposed to black hair and grey eyes like Tsetsiliya. Also unlike Tsetsiliya, who wore a military parade uniform, Agafya wore a normal business dress suit. In fact, despite the fact the two women often worked with one another, they had next to nothing in common. Agafya was a cheerful woman of 32 years of age who almost always had a smile on her face; seeing her sitting next to the expressionless Tsetsiliya made her joyful demeanor all the more apparent.
"Miss Tereshkova, I suggest you hold back on the drinks; we'll be landing soon"
Hearing Naumov's comment Agafya put down her drink and gave the older man a bright smile.
"You know me Matvey, I won't go overboard especially with the reputation of our nation and its leader Maksim on the line" the woman responded with a chuckle. Naumov knew one of the reasons she had gotten her position was due to her unyielding devotion to the communist party and its leader. Naumov had his suspicions that the reason she got along with Tsetsiliya so well was due to Agafya's almost unhealthy obsession with the younger girl's father. Just as Naumov was about to say something else the seat-belt light came on with a ding and the pilot's voice informed the passengers that they would be beginning their descent. Naumov quickly buckled his seat-belt and frowned when he saw Agafya clumsily buckle hers, she may not have gone overboard but she was clearly feeling the effects of the alcohol. Tsetsiliya marked her page and buckled up remaining expressionless the whole time. After adjusting her seat-belt she apparently noticed some lint on the right sleeve of her uniform and picked it off rubbing her middle finger and thumb together to remove the unwanted debris. Noticing Naumov staring once again Tsetsiliya looked his way and with a slight tilt of the head smiled at him; Naumov smiled back despite the unease that her fake feeling smile caused him. As Tsetsiliya stowed her book away Naumov focused on the task that lay ahead for the three of them.

Andrey Feofilakt Lagounov watched the festivities around him and felt mildly disgusted, "how do these Foxtrovians have time for such festivities? Who is running the factory machinery?" He murmured to himself in Stormontian. As a pair of children ran by him giggling he frowned and reached into his pocket pulling out a cigarette. As he fumbled around looking for his lighter he thought about how these children required more discipline, these giggling Foxtrovian children would not be prepared for the harsh reality of an adult life. Upon finding his lighter in his back pocket he discovered it was out of fuel. After attempting to light it several more times he gave up and with a sigh replaced his cigarette in its box. Unable to relieve his craving to smoke he decided to focus on his work. Andrey was an angent of the NKGB, he was sent to Foxtrove to learn more about its culture and internal security and stability. He had been chosen for his fluency in Whedian. In fact Andrey was fluent in six languages, Glengarrian, Stormontian, Dundasian, Whedian, Leedian and Auelian and was less competent in three other languages, English, Spanish and Renfrisian. His work for the NKGB usually kept him within his own nation, the United Socialist Republics of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry, where he worked to sniff out rebels and dissenters which often had him working in the Renfrisian and Auelian speaking regions of the USRSDG. However his home nation had finally recovered from the devestating century and a half of conflicts that had ended with the People's Revolution. The leaders of the Union had isolated SDG for much of the recovery period but now they had decided that the Union was strong enough to perform on the stage of world politics. It had already been spying on many nations for decades allowing for the military of SDG to keep up to date with other nations of the world. The generals of the People's Liberation Army of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry (PLASDG) were desperate to flex the muscles of SDG's military and Foxtrove was one of their possible targets. Andrey kept this in mind while he watched a group of young women in strange clothing drink some red liquid that stained their lips and teeth crimson. As the women laughed at something one of them had said Andrey turned his attention to the police acting as security for the festival. He took note of their organization and their armaments. Snapping a picture of the police he looked at his watch, it was almost time for him to meet his contact. He stowed his camera away and began walking through the crowds of people.

BACKGROUND
[/b][/u]

The country was founded in 1922 with the unification of the Stormontian Federative Socialist Republic, the South Dundasian Socialist Republic, the North Dundasian Socialist Republic and the People's Republic of Glengarry. The SFSR split into the North Stormontian Federative Socialist Republic and the South Stormontian Socialist Republic in 1935 and the People's Republic of Glengarry, which became the Glengarrian Federative Socialist Republic upon joining the union split into the North Glengarrian Socialist Republic and the South Glengarrian Socialist Republic in 1936. The six republics were originally six separate kingdoms, the Kingdom of South Stormont, The United Kingdom of North Stormont and Osnabruck, the Kingdom of South Dundas, the Kingdom of North Dundas, the Kingdom of North Glengarry and the Kingdom of South Glengarry. These six kingdoms warred constantly vying for control over their neighbours, this period of nearly constant warfare began in July 1798 with the 3rd Stormontian-Glengarrian War. The 3rd Stormontian-Glengarrian War was a conflict between the two most powerful of the six kingdoms, North Stormont and North Glengarry. The war was originally seen as a minor border dispute with very little fighting occurring in the first three months of the war, it wasn't until the 14 October that the war began in earnest. In late September North Stormont had begun massing troops in three major location along it's border with North Glengarry and on the night of 13 October the three armies were ordered to advance. They didn't cross the border until just past midnight the following day. The three pronged invasion was extremely successful even more so than was anticipated. North Glengarry had been caught unprepared and troops were quickly moved to the front to stall the invaders. The Glengarrians were very disorganized and their troops were mainly poorly trained sometimes unarmed recruits conscripted from nearby towns and villages, this led to significantly high losses for the Glengarrians, as many as 5,000 Glengarrians may have been killed in the first two weeks of the invasion. By November the Glengarrians were able to slow the Stormontian advance and by December the Stormontian advance was halted. North Glengarry had lost at least 19,000 men by the start of December while losses for North Stormont remained below 5,000. The other four kingdoms were afraid that the balance of power would be disrupted and so decided to intervene with South Glengarry, South Stormont and North Dundas allying with North Glengarry and South Dundas siding with North Stormont. The war continued until 6 April 1801 when the two sides made peace and signed the Treaty of Berwick with no territorial changes. However by May of the same year North Stormont began massing troops along it's border with South Stormont and on 2 June the Stormontian War of 1801 began. South Stormont proved an easier target than North Glengarry as the war ended on 12 September with the signing of the Treaty of Ragemprandburg with South Stormont ceding the regions of Leedia and Lanarkia to North Stormont. While South and North Stormont were fighting South Glengarry invaded North Dundas, its ally from the war with North Stormont, on 4 August starting the Glenian-Dundasian War which lasted until North Glengarry intervened and forced the two sides to make peace in February of 1803. In 1805 North Stormont formed an alliance with South Dundas and South Glengarry and went to war with North Glengarry and South Stormont. This war was mostly fought at sea and ended in 1807 with the Treaty of Williamsburg. (Will finish at some later date)
