(eh consul how many troops do you have?) (also admin the time rate isn't really working - people are developing tech too ahead of it's time because of how slow time is moving. just my opinion.) [FFR] The French accept Benelux's request, and dig in. With the Italian advancements another 200,000 are brought out of reserve for the Army. They are stationed in several naval bases for quick deployment, specifically Corsica, Tunisia, Cairo, Alexandria, and Morocco. It will take time for them to set the new Army Group C up, however. The remaining 100,000 troops are stationed in Cairo in case of any Italian threats to the African colonies. With the nearby threat of Somalia, Djibouti hires another 5,000 conscripts, putting the local force at 25,000. Another group of 40,000 Algerian, Libyan, and Egyptian Foreign Legion fighters are brought it, with army professionals to train them. Anti-tank and anti-air emplacements are put up, along with the French military sending tank mines to the garrison of 65,000. French Africans are angered by the threat by the Italians, yet some choose to attempt to take the opportunity of this to revolt. Rebels are disorganized and ill-supplied, however, and so the French instead focus on the influx on Africans into the Foreign Legion. Totaling at 50,000 members with the additional 40,000 sent to Djibouti, most are stationed around Africa, but the majority are ordered to support Army Group C in Egypt where the Italians pose the largest threat. The 3rd and 4th Coast Guard fleets are sent to guard Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, and the Red Sea. A prototype for the missile destroyer comes out, with accuracy tests coming in with good results. Research continues, and scientists estimate that if rushed, the destroyer models will be ready for production within the month. The Shock Trooper division is readied in Corsica. No attempts at battle are made yet, however.

(well damn...) [FFR] The FFR convenes with the rest of the WLL. The French call out the Russians, saying they had no quarrel with them and that they should stay out of the innocent French colonial land in Syria. Meanwhile Syrian garrisons revolt, but no major French militia members have yet to fight the Soviets. Mainly Muslim nationalists use guerrilla tactics to destroy tanks, seeking not for communism to invade Syria. The French have officially made no war declaration on Russia, but talk among the WLL. Many French politicians have doubts for the war.

(Imperial Japan accepted) (However for Nationalist Spain: Excessive troops amounts, especially those in active duty. Please reduce these numbers extensively as this means that just about every newborn, child, teenager, adult, and elderly male is currently in either active duty or reserve to your military. That would mean you have no actual research, extremely reduced production deficit, and complete population stagnation. Therefore, you need to have a severe reduction in your current military counts to about a third or fourth of that current amount even. I even suggest flipping the ratio of your active vs. reserved troop amounts as your active personnel amounts are reminiscent of a nation currently deeply involved in a war for their homeland, not a nation currently at peace as Spain should be right now. Your population is also around 27,500,000 people by the way. You are allowed to have the Spanish protectorate of Morocco, and the "Spanish Sahara", not necessarily the entire Western Sahara as that is French territory. I'll allow the German aircraft as well as the Spanish and German's were close and it could be suggested they acquired some German engineers to assist them.) (So, Nationalist Spain, repost with a massive reduction of military personnel, adjust your territory to "Spanish Sahara" and "Spanish protectorate of Morocco", Flip the ratio of active vs. reserve personnel so there would be more reserve than active, adjust population to around the 27,500,000 mark, and add an actual aircraft amount as you do not have one right now.)

Socialist Federation of Australia [Government] -The sudden outbreak of a large scale conflict across Europe presents alarm for the Australian government as the sudden escalation can inflate Communism to new bounds and prompt another world-wide conflict. -The government begins discussing their position on the current European escalation behind closed doors after having been requested to assist in the conflict by the Soviet Union, although the Australian government and it's people see the Soviet's as friends and mutual trading partners, the outcome for Australian support looks bleak. [Foreign Affairs] -The ambassadors to the Soviet Union cite that extensive discussion would have to be done by the current government officials to discuss the possibility of Australian support in the conflict that they do not see themselves invested in. -However, in regards to the acquisition of uranium, the Australian government will offer 295 tons of Uranium in return for current MiG-15 aircraft schematics, the schematics for the T-40 amphibious reconnaissance vehicle, and the schematics to the B-4 artillery system. -The effect of Australian support has started to sway Chinese political favor towards Socialism as the Australian government begins to fund the current government in it's extensive recovery effort, military advisers are also sent over to better train the current Chinese military into an effective fighting force. China offers a section of a deteriorated port of Shanghai to Australia for their own military usage as thanks. -Australian officials however do cite that an Australian intervention into the conflict in Europe would "Without a doubt, result in a complete victory for Australia and her allies in conflict, and institute a lasting peace in Europe if the WLL precedes to disrupt world trade and prosperity only after three years of peace." -Australian government officials greet the Italian diplomats warmly, citing faith in a positive outcome for their current military operations in Europe, however, they avoid making an impression that Australia will definitely intervene to assist them. [Military] -Without any Soviet intervention in China, the Australian forces were able to push all the way North and through Beijing, while the ZSU has effectively assassinated twenty-two high ranking officers of the PLA. Mao Zedong was effectively encircled, captured, and eliminated by Nationalist Chinese personnel just west of Beijing, ending the civil war promptly. -Australian personnel begin operations with the ZSU within China to effectively clear out anymore pockets of resistance, while the Nationalist Chinese military begins garrison and public works assistance post-war to re-stabilize again behind their government. Australian medical personnel are detached in large quantities to treat the injured civilians with modern medicine and practices. -Thirty-thousand motorized personnel redeploy to Shanghai to be brought back to Australia, they will undergo ceremonial services for the dead, and re-instruction with the new mechanized vehicles currently being produced to better understand and operate such vehicles. -The current surface fleet anchored off the Chinese shores begins escort services of personnel and equipment back to Australia, while seven submarines and three destroyers begin active patrol of the Yellow Sea. This detachment will be based to Shanghai for now. -The detachment of two destroyers, and two hundred military personnel on Crete is on high alert for any action taken against them as anti-air weapon systems are set-up and utilized all hours in the event of attack, the destroyers have a specific party on-board instructed to immediately cut all holding lines to the ship in a moments notice. [Research] -The sudden escalation of forces in Europe has caused the Australian military to immediately return to their files on the Panther and IS-3 research a year ago and continue working on a tank design to properly outfit the Australian armored divisions. -The jet engine proves successful and highly-stabilized as of now, integration into aircraft will be investigated and calculated when designs are prepared. [Production] -Two "Sydney-class" battleships are being constructed, scheduled for June of next year. -Twelve "Alpha-class" destroyers are being constructed, scheduled for January of next year. -One "John Monash" aircraft carrier is being constructed in South Iran, scheduled for June of next year. -FAS Australia is expected to be released in March of next year due to it's exceptional success and no real difficulties faced during construction.

(There is a massive difference between the French and Spanish protectorates of Morocco and Guinea. They are territories that France has never owned because they were always Spanish territory since they acquired them first. Spanish Western Sahara is a sliver of coastline along the Western Sahara that has always been owned by the Spanish since the Berlin conference in 1884. Make sure you are using "French Sahara" and "Spanish Sahara" so you understand the proper territory differences.) (In regards to Vlad being an alt, he could be or he could not be. Maybe he was someone who had his account banned last month or he's just returned and made a new account. I don't really care all that much so long as he's following the guidelines and not the alternate of someone in the RP, which will be monitored. There is also the difference that this thread is much unlike most other threads, there hasn't been really any prominent Nation RP's looming in the forum, which means we are attractive to unique role-players. I would suggest not ignoring your neighbor, because that would not bode well if he chose to invade an unoccupied border. :D )
