Republic Of Iraq

 -
 -

Leader: President Tariq Al-Botto

Info: Formerly part of the Ottoman Empire, Iraq became an independent kingdom in 1932. A "republic" was proclaimed in 1958, but in actuality a series of military strongmen have ruled the country since then, the latest being SADDAM Husayn. Territorial disputes with Iran led to an inconclusive and costly eight-year war (1980-88). In August 1990 Iraq seized Kuwait, but was expelled by US-led, UN coalition forces during January-February 1991. The victors did not occupy Iraq, however, thus allowing the regime to stay in control. Following Kuwait's liberation, the UN Security Council (UNSC) required Iraq to scrap all weapons of mass destruction and long-range missiles and to allow UN verification inspections. UN trade sanctions remain in effect due to incomplete Iraqi compliance with relevant UNSC resolutions. In 2003 SADDAM was exiled and young former-general Tariq AL-BOTTO took control of this nation.

When ancient Rome was near defeat,
the invincible Tenth Legion was raised:
they beat the barbarians on the battlefield
and Rome gained peace with honour again.
When the traitor, on September the eighth,
left the fatherland in infamy,
the Tenth Flotilla was raised from the sea
and it brought weapons at the cry for honour!

Oh our Tenth Flotilla,
you that mocked England,
you victorious on Alexandria,
Malta, Souda and Gibraltar,
you already victorious upon the sea,
now even on the dry land
you will win!

To you Italian ships, stolen from us
not in battle but by treason,
and to you, our prisoners and dead brothers,
we swear:
we swear that we'll came back,
let this be God's and the Flag's will.
We swear that we'll fight
until we obtain an honourable peace!

-Issue 1 (Pre-Turn 1)

Glory be to Allah! Most merciful and most gracious!

Today in Iraq, President Al-Botto headed a large parade of our troops. He spoke to them saying "You are our greatest hope, our lions of babylon, our sons of islam and the sword which will run through our enemies"

He then preceded to a parade of children who showed their artistic talents and love for their nation by singing songs and dancing traditional Iraqi dances they had learned in their school. Al-Botto promises many civic-works projects and many new schools, universities, libaries, hospitals and public-water systems to be established, he also vowed to bring electricity to all of Iraq's major cities and towns once more.

-Issue 2 (Turn 1)

Glory be to Allah! Most merciful and most gracious!
Today Al-Botto raised 4 new army groups to defend our homeland and two new air-attack squadrons to defend our cities. These new soldiers and airmen were sworn in today in a large ceremonemy attended by President Al-Botto. He spoke today and said "Within the coming months we will raise several more army groups and equip our soldiers with the finest weapons, Allah is great"

we got told you couldnt buy trade units until the ftc was completed?

"These units may ONLY be built once a trade agreement with another nation (player or non-player) has been signed and a Foreign Trade Facility has been built in both your nations!"
