Allow me to start this speech by saying that I am dismayed that I will probably be misquoted in the foreign media. In fact, I will probably be deeply criticized by our own domestic broadcasters, but I welcome that and encourage that. This is a nation that is built, more than any other, on the idea that each individual's opinion is safe for him or her to have and express in any way that they wish.
It is remarkably difficult to communicate what I want to say without looking like the bad guy, and I am sure once more that foreign networks will paint me as such. If that is the case, so be it, but certain regions south of the current area considered to be sovereign to the nation of Zeelar are now being formalized as oblasts of our nation. It should be noted that the African interior is poorly defined, and many borders are not well established. Indeed, the presence of the Trans-African Railways along the Cape to Cairo route and on the routes across the Sahara Desert have made many young settlements not tied to any nation flourish. Naturally, many of these feature people from Zeelar and other African Nations. These settlements should be celebrated as following the independent traditions that the ideals of modern Anarchy are tied towards.
That being said, certain regions have expressed a unanimous, and I repeat unanimous, wish to be united with the Zeelaran nation. Moreover, a certain exclave along the Red Sea has also wished for this unification. This is, again, to be celebrated and I encourage all nations to recognize that this is not a military action but a peaceful extension of protection in an uncertain world and an establishment of industrial standards to make Africa greener as a whole. The idea that Zeelar is constructing a new and efficient power grid is known internationally, and it too should be celebrated. Anyone who wishes to live across the African continent should not be denied their wish provided that they are not wasting resources when doing so.
Moreover, Zeelaran interests have maintained a fleet of seagoing vessels for a long time, but these vessels have for a long time been forces to dock at foreign ports. This is no longer the case, and this alone should save a great deal of fuel. I also wish to invite everyone to go surfing in the new exclave. Being residents of a landlocked country, our people have been robbed of the ability to try out surfboards for so long in Zeelar. Once my injuries totally heal up, I have plans to go myself after all!
Oh, I would like to extend one final invite as well. If there is any interest that does not yet have rail connections that would like them, I could either help you get in touch with Trans-African Railways or the Royal Monorail System. Either could be very beneficial for anyone who is currently denied green transportation in the own nations.

The Federation of East African Nations would like to launch a small team of experts into the areas in question to ensure that the freedom of these people are not being superseded by the government of Zeelar. Though we have view Zeelar as a bastion of personal freedoms here on the African continent we still feel it necessary to enact our own investigation so long as the government of Zeelar Agrees.
-Official statement of the East African Federation. -------------------------------------------------------------
The Russian Empire gives its full and unanimous support to the crown of Zeelar and their interests in Africa.

The memberstates of the Euroveraminus Union give their full support to the initiative of the East African Federation, and are willing to help in any manner.

First, We would like to thank the Russian Empire for her full support to the Zeelaran Crown and the projects that We have previously outlined. Moreover, we want to extend a special thanks to the Democratic Confederacy of Africa. We know that they share out goal of never allowing colonialism to threaten the African Continent again, and we hope that Zeelaran relations with the DCA continue to grow ever closer.
The initiative brought forth by the East African Federation, as well as the member states of the Euroveraminus Union, is to be admired. We are glad that such states care about the well being of other people. Indeed, that is why the map needed to be redrawn. We cannot live another day with the thought that colonialism from foreign powers outside of Africa could still continue to threaten our continent. Moreover, pollution and threats from external industrialization will never be tolerated. The Zeelaran nation was formed to fight against these oppressive things.
We welcome anyone who wishes to observe with open arms. We hide nothing because we have nothing to hide. Come as you are, and come whenever you like. Perhaps it is best if you do not even announce such things because state dinners and entertaining of foreign dignitaries is an excellent way to hide abuses. As there are none here, we would like as many individuals as they wish to visit the new areas in Zeelar and see them just as any real citizen would see them.
Otherwise, formal arrangements can be made if anyone so wishes. We just want to ensure that the rest of the world understands that this is a very real arrangement and there is no malice towards anyone. It has already been mentioned that Zeelar is a bastion of personal freedoms, and this alone should be enough to ensure the major world powers that there are no hard feelings. No human rights abuses would ever be tolerated within the Zeelaran nation, under any circumstance.

The Roman Empire fully supports the efforts of the Zeelaran Crown and the Zeelaran people to advance the nations of Africa. We offer our friends whatever support they need in these projects, if they should request it.
