Pesident Ragnar Thorson had sat idly by as he watched his neighboring nation slowly decay. Now with no nation holding the lands to the south of The United States of Metz, the people are in anarchy, with many seeming to go hungry as violence seems to be the currency for any need that they may have. With his people sharing the same culture, beleifs and mores of society. Many citizens of Metz have family that they fear is in trouble and has no one to help. The President finally gained the approval of the senate, as an 83% vote was achieved.

President Thorson issued an announcement to the rest of the world with his intention to expand into these lands and give the people a government that they desperatly needed. His plan for expansion was approved with the fact that he had an ultimatum for his plans. He had a three year plan.

Year one: He would allow for military rule in order to stop the anarchy. As soon as a town was under control, they would be placed under the control of an elected official of the town, and the Laws and Regulations of The United States of Metz would be adopted.

Year two: State lines would be drawn, and allow for each state to elect higher officials to represent them and gain a seat(s) in the Senate. They would then also be allowed to pass their own laws that would apply to their respective state. The military would also be withdrawn by the years end, as long as peace remained.

Year three, allow these states the free and full responsibility as any of the other already existsing states. They would then be fully considered a state of The United States of Metz.

This plan was sent to all the nations of Europe and any others who inquired about the subject, asking for the world communities approval and advice. He then awaited for reply before his military would enter borderlands that existed to the south.

Official Communiqué

The Republic is eager to see lawlessness and the tyranny of chaos end in the anarchic territories of Scandinavia and therefore fully supports the efforts of President Thorson and the United States of Metz. Naturally, Stockholm requires free and fair elections for the people of these territories and would be more than willing to assist our comrades to the north in this endeavor.

The Confederate States of America, wise slightly disconnected from the political geography of Europe, stands by our allies in Porcu. We fully support the efforts of the United States of Metz in bringing democracy to an otherwise lawless territory. We applaud the courage of the Metz government under President Thorson and offer any assistance they could deem necessary to ensure this election process to be as smooth and as fair as possible.

With the support of other nations around the world, the United States of Metz began to move in the military to the places where anarchy began to prevail. Hopefully within the next few weeks, most of the violence would cease. THe President then chose to make an announcement to the international community.

"Nations of the world, We The United States of Metz have began our attempt to assist the peoples whose previous government had left them with nothing. We are doing our best to aid them in the ways they wish to receive and need. Although we are seeking to eventually add these peoples and lands to ours, we still have their aims and goals in mind and are doing what we can to help them."
