International Sanctions and Embargo's Tracker
« on: March 22, 2019, 02:16:32 PM »
DATABASE OF INTERNATIONAL SANCTIONS AND EMBARGOES

This used to be a thread on the old forum that was intended to be used as a reference guide to what sanctions/embargo's were in place against which nations, who put them in place and why they were put in place. For the last couple of years there hasn't really been a 'sanction heavy' atmosphere but we've got various RP's now which may involve these so it seemed a good idea to revive the thread.

Please note that this is a reference thread so you should still be announcing sanctions etc in through press offices or media outlets.

The following categories of sanctions may be used (this section is copied directly from the old forum thread). If anyone has other categories they would like to suggest, PM me and I'll consider adding them.

Diplomatic: Removal of diplomatic ties, e.g. Embassies etc.

Trade (Passive): Bans on imports or exports from a country.

Trade (Active): Same as above, except with a military presence enforcing, e.g. blockading ports.

Arms/Military: Trade Sanctions which only extend to the arms manufacturing industry, i.e. not supplying a nation with weapons. Includes restrictions on military movement of the target nation nearby the country issuing the sanctions.

Sporting/Cultural: Prohibits sporting events and cultural events between the two countries. Seen as a form of psychological warfare in that it affects the patriotism of the populous rather than pressuring the government. (note please that stuff such as the Mundus Games may not fit into this category unless you're going to say that you refuse to compete because of that nations presence)

Recognition: The government of the target nation is not acknowledged as the legitimate government by the imposing nation.

Targeted Sanctions: Financial and asset freezes, targeted at government members.

The following is the submission form for sanctions, after which I'll add them into a table to keep track of them for the purposes of the reference list. Also please when withdrawing sanctions listed here give notice of the withdrawal here so the information is as up to date as possible.

Code: [Select]
[b]Sanction Name:[/b] A short name
[b]Target:[/b] Name of country/alliance/union targeted by sanctions
[b]Imposer:[/b] Name of imposing nation/union/alliance
[b]Type:[/b] Type of sanction (See above) + any other details
[b]Motivation:[/b] History of the embargo, and the motivation for imposing it

Sanction Name: Occupation of Royal Seleucid
Target: Celtic Protectorate in Royal Seleucid
Imposer: Crown of Abuqiya
Type: Recognition: Abuqiya refuses to recognise the Celtic Protectorate as a legitimate entity
Motivation: Abuqiya refuses to acknowledge the Celtic Protectorate as anything but a faux-entity and a front for what it sees as foreign intervention in the affairs of Midaryne. Furthermore Abuqiya is concerned with the presence of foreign soldiers stationed within the Midarayne region and views their presence as an occupation. Lastly Abuqiya does not have any faith in Ui Cenneslaig due to their close relationship with the Rouge state of the Iwi and views them with suspicious caution.
