Colonel Saul Tigh fixed his eye patch and stood in the elevator, listening to the music. With his hands clenched behind his back, he exited and made his way to the Office of the President. Marcus Theafer had once occupied this office before his unexpected resignation. One of the shorter terms of presidents, Theafer was a throw in for a president, forced to take the position after the Civil War. Tigh was just a Captain back then, but had proven himself and risen to Colonel. Theafer had named Tigh as his successor. (The Clamparapan Charter indicates that should a President's term or life expire, elections are held. If the President resigns, they are to name a successor.) Theafer had no idea who to pick, but remembered that Saul was a military hardliner who believed in the ideals of Clamparapa. Tigh hated fascist and communist regimes; when faced with a choice, he would gladly nuke them off the planet. However, he knew his and the nation's limits, and knew that he needed to check his emotions if his Presidency was to work. He was very good at bottling up his emotions and remaining emotionless, but that came from years of military service. He was ready to show the world what he had to offer... OOC: If you guys wanna post, go ahead. However, this is mainly just to inform everyone of the change in presidency. Tigh is darn hard and is pissed at the rises of fascist regimes

"Sir? The new successor to Theafer has been chosen."
"Really, who?"
"His name is Colonel Saul Tigh, sir."
"Hmmm, not too keen on a military man taking over, but better him, than all these regimes of opression being reborn. Send word to him that I personally want to meet him, to continue Canto-Clamparapan relations at once."
"Yes sir.."
To Colonel Saul Tigh,
As President of the United Provinces of Canton Rouge, I would be interested in meeting with you in your capital not only to further the relationship between our nations, and to see what you have in store for the world.
Yours, President Marc Dentonnine United Provinces of Canton Rouge

I, Charles Lucian, am the Emperor of the Imperial Empire of Protoa. I extend my hand of friendship to your coming to power. Hopefully, we can remain friendly as I have with Marcus Theafer.

Dear Mr. Dentonnine, I am honoured to speak to a man who holds true the ideals of freedom, not fascism, as Europe now stands on the brink of fascist rule. Those pigs can rot in Hell for all I care. I would be happy to meet with you. Together we need to free the world of dictators and their scum. President Saul Tigh Clamparapan Main/Colonial Command
Dear Mr. Lucian, I have no quarrel with you. However, I believe that Marcus' decision to leave the alliance was a great choice. Do not think that because I am new to this office, I will join your regime to become one of your puppets. After observing your actions, I have concluded that any alliance would result in your taking over of our nation with a puppet regime. No matter what happened in the past, your recent annexation has proven my point. We need more nations with freedom, not dictators. We will not attack you, but do not expect an alliance either. President Saul Tigh Clamparapan Main/Colonial Command OOC: Archon, this is just Tigh's personality, so don't take it personally

Dear Mr. Tigh,
Because of this, I will personally be coming to the capital of Clamparapa for a meeting within a couple of days, to better strengthen our ties to prevent an autocracy erupting not only here in Europe, but also in the Far East. I look forward to your response.
President Marc Dentonnine United Provinces of Canton Rouge

ooc: don't worry clamps it's all good.
Dear Mr. Tigh,
We understand your statements and will accept the conditions you have brought forth. I believe a Non-aggression stance is in order. Until then I give you my leave.
Yours,
Charles Lucian

President Tigh,
The British Empire wishes to engage in talks with you to establish ties between our nations. We are glad that another leader can see our vision for a free and democratic world. The rise of Fascism in Europe is of great concern to us, and we will be glad to have another ally in our battle against oppresion.
Yours Tony Blair M.P. Prime Minister of Great Britain and Her Majesty's Empire

Dear Mr. Dentonnine,
I would be thrilled to meet with you. If you wish, PM Blair of Britain was also requested to speak with me. We can have a formal meeting in Riefort to discuss our relations.
President Saul Tigh Clamparapan Main/Colonial Command
Dear Prime Minister,
I would be glad to speak with you on fascism and watch its demise. President Dentonnine will be at the talks as well and I do not believe he will object to your presence. Together we can crush oppressive regimes that threaten our freedom.

Saul made sure all the chairs were set, every fork properly positioned, every napkin perfect. He was a perfectionist and nothing was to be out of place for the meeting. An aide came in and told him that the Canton Rouge plane had requested clearence to enter Clamparapan airspace. He gave the aide the clearence codes and returned to work, setting the table...
OOC: I know this is short, but this is basically to get this thread moving again and setting up the conference.
