Part 1 The Kingdom of Telosan was once a vast empire during the Mideval times. Telosan was often in war with larger nations over the national border. Eventualy the Kingdom of Telosan entered into yet another war, one that they might have won. In the war, enemy spies disabled much of Telosan's military strength. Telosan lost the war, and the land it had claimed for itself. With millions of the surviving refugees scattered across Europe, Telosan's Royal family fled to America. Over time they established themselves as a small but prosperous kingdom. Many refugees continued to arrive over time, forcing the kingdom to expand in order to hold all of its citizens. The nation was a proud fraction of its former glory. There were many who would like to see Telosan restored to its full power again. These warhawks pushed the kingdom into another war, this time in the Americas. The king at the time fought against his own citizens, urging them to keep the peace. He was assasinated and the country fell into disorganization and chaos. Now Prince Trekon declares himself the new king. Taking up his grandfather's crown, he pieced Telosan back together once again. After its long history of war, the Kingdom of Telosan merely seeks to settle down. Part 2 The Kingdom of Telosan now has recieved a decent foothold in the Americas. Being welcomed with open arms by their neighbors, Prince Trekon decided to make his home city the capital. Renaming it Trekon City, it blossomed into a major shipyard and port. The island became a major shipping and trade route. Telosan's eastern island began industrializing heavily. The southeastern island began gathering the resources lying at the ocean floor. All resources found at these islands were always shipped to Trekon City, and then dispersed among the northern island's other ports. For defense, the Kingdom of Telosan began to use its profits from trade to build a powerful navy. Telosan already owns a large shipping fleet, capable of carrying all sorts of goods to and from all its allies. Thinking of others, or rather their cash, Prince Trekon ordered the contruction of another shipping fleet. This fleet had more ships but all the ships were smaller, allowing them to navigate they many rivers found throughout the Americas. Telosan could open trade to more landlocked countries, although they lacked a decent air force. Part 3 Due to the effort by the Telosan Shipping Empire, the Kingdom of Telosan has a chance to regain its former glory without bloodshed. Telosan's shipping fleets have begun trading with countries around the world. To do this, King Trekon ordered trading posts to be established on each continent. The ships sent to open these trade posts have set off. They will set up a permenant base and return with resources on the land. The Kingdom of Telosan will then be able to open trade with all countries in the world. Telosan is supplying goods to countries in war. All of Telosan's trade fleets are now updated and contructed. Telosan's Shipping Empire now consists of 16 trade fleets. Most lay dormant in the shipyards until the trade posts have been established. With goods flowing back and forth, the need to portect it's trade fleets has become more apparent. Telosan's blossoming economy is not yet capable of taking on a full scale project as creating an entire navy. Therefore, to start off small, King Trekon and Admiral Arkari have ordered the construction of 16 class 1 destroyers. each one will be charged with escourting each of the trade fleets. Telosan can rise once again, back to fame, riches, and glory. |

Telosan's king, the noble King Trekon, recieved threats to his crown. After a recent assasination attempt, several of the countries nobles questioned his right to rule. Others declared that they were the desendants of Trekon's grandfather. In the middle of all this chaos a bright light shone is King Trekon's life. With the birth of his son, Tresoan, King Trekon wanted nothing more than keeping the throne for Tresoan. King Trekon clamped down on security. He put an end to the noble's conpiracy against him. Keeping almost everything the same as it was, King Trekon declared that the Kingdom of Telosan had become an empire. The title of King remained, all other goverment was abolished. The goverment now consists of the King and his Advisory Council. The Advisory Council was created by the head of the Navy, Army, Air Force, and Trade. The Telosan Empire has emerged. |

The Confederacy of Tutchone fully recognizes King Trekon's right to rule, and applauds his efforts in keeping the throne. |

King Trekon thanks the Confederacy for its support. It seems unlikely that any ill thoughts will be directed towards Tutchone at any point in the future. |

Nag Ehgoeg welcomes new trading partners to the world stage, but warns that any expansion into Asia or the Middle East will be opposed with full military force if we believe that the Asian way of life is threatened by your nation. European imperialism is intolerable. However, pending a hostile reaction from our allies and fellow states in the Dominion, Nag Ehgoeg offers provisional friendship to your nation and recognises King Treko. |

OOC: Actually more of American Imperialism with European roots. Doesn't really matter anyway. IC: Telosan has not expanded to the Middle East as its resources will be of little value there. The Telosan Empire has expanded to Asia on an island for trade purposes. King Trekon is glad to see that one of his empire's trade allies has recognized his unharmful intent in expansion. Telosan accepts the provisional national friendship. |

The Telosan Empire's colonization fleets have landed on their designated land at roughly the same time. On each territory, work is nearly identical. The colonist sent out to set up trade posts immediatly set to work on docks and houses. The supplies are taken off the ships and already made buildings are off-loaded and placed on their proper locations. A dirt road is cleared and cut, connecting the town. A scouting party is set up. Mounting horses, transported with the supplies, the scouts search the island for resources, civilazation, and plant and animal life. Samples of several resources are brought back, and other resources not able to be carried are mapped out. Stocking up on supplies and goods, the territories begin gathering the resources. The fleets head back to transport more supplies and machines to create a more permenant settlement. Several fleets swarm each territory, setting up several towns/villages. Eventualy, over time roads are paved and resources shipped out to be traded. To protect his new expanded empire, King Trekon ordered 2 destroyers to be stationed on gaurd at the main port in each colony. Telosan's economy is slightly damaged, and the budget severly lowed by the rapid growth and contruction. The country is depending on its Shipping Empire and its trade allies to regain its economy. In no time at all, Telosan's small but blossoming economy should be back on track. |

Working fast, and thanks to the latest technology, the colonists have completed setting up the trade posts. They have already been trading even during construction, but they were hampered. Now the trading posts are ready to trade to their full potential. Goods are flowing back and forth between the Telosan Empire's lands. Warehouses are filled, ready to be shipped to the countries they are to be traded with. During a routine shipment, the trade fleet was ambushed by pirates. The trades ships, though able to fend for themselves, were badly battered in the skirmish. The destroyer Akari was slightly damaged but sank several pirate ships. Eventualy the harassing fleet withdrew. It seems more and more pirates have been noticing and taking advantage of the growing naval power. Telosan's fleets have been raided but never lost a ship, crew, or cargo. More military support is needed for the trade fleets. The construction of several more destroyers have been ordered by Admiral Akari, with the support of King Trekon. |

The Chancellery recognizes the new nation as a partner and friend in the world. We would also like to offer naval protection of your fleets in the Indian Ocean and Southern Atlantic Ocean in return for reduced for the free importation of Ulganian goods. Edited by Ulgania, Jun 10 2008, 07:13 PM.

Telosan has become fully involved in its trade. The economy has become slightly dependant on the success of the trade fleets. To potentially futher the profits, the trade fleets now act as mercenaries, transporting goods for other countries. Telosan charges 2% tax on the transportation of goods. The Telosan Empire accepts Ulgania as an ally. OOC: Kind of confused with the offer. You want me to import your goods for free? Or import my goods for free? |

The Swiss-Roman Republic of Porcu, albeit being somewhat uncomfortable with the chosen form of government of Telosan, recognizes a good trading partner when it sees one. As soon as free trade commences between our two nations as well as between our two large trading guilds, the VOC and the Telosan Shipping Empire, then Porcu shall officially recognize the Kingdom of Telosan. |

OOC: The kingdom of Telosan is now an empire so I would perfer it be called the Telosan Empire if you wish to use the offical name. Telosan will do just fine if you like. IC: After considering the offer made by Ulganian officials, Merchant Dracen has agreed to the deal...with the consent of King Trekon. The Telosan Shipping Empire sees the benefits of trading with the Swiss-Roman Republic of Porcu. A small flotilla of trade ships and one destroyer has set out for Porcu's harbors in the Baltic Sea. |

Ulgania is pleased with this decision, and also wishes to take advantage of the recent decision to ship trade between other nations. The expansionism of globalization is always pleasing to see. |
