Sure.
Ventus Prime isn't on any maps either.
Oh, nice. Thanks.

The Provisional Government
After the arrive to Mars, a Provisional Government is installed, the leader is José Carlos. Population does not surpass 400k, and Mars is now an anarchy. The government has almost no power and people are sad that they had to leave Earth. But they have hope that things will change.
The principal economic activity is trading.
The Capital city, New Guillena, is getting built.
More news later. The Guilleans have to sleep now... it has been an exahusting day...
You can see space claims in this dispatch here. Just contact Cymiopolis to make a claim on an area that hasn't been taken, or if you have the consent of the person who owns it, the sharing of a planetoid.
It looks like Volirum already answered your questions, so with that, you should be good to go! ^-^
Have fun! I'd be happy to answer other questions you may have.

“Spiders...” Impa thought. “It always has to be spiders...” The path in the cave had now opened up more, leading to a small ravine that was flowing in the same direction. Unfortunately, the webbing had increased in volume around the walls and ceiling.
Impa stayed still for a moment, looking around the walls and ceiling, not seeing anything moving. She had to be careful here, for if she fell she’d be stuck completely and likely to become something’s dinner. She took a step, and another step. So far so good.
As she stepped, she could hear something rustling behind her. Every instinct told her not to look back, but she couldn’t help it, turning around and seeing a large spider, about the size of a shuttle, creeping down the wall and shrieking at her, mandibles snapping.
Now she ran, or at least ran as fast as she could. The terrain was not in her favor and there was hardly enough room to move around. The tunnel ahead was a bit smaller, but still big enough for the spider to walk through...which gave her an idea.
Her slate still in hand, Impa quickly flipped through the screens until she found what she was liking for. She pressed a button and a large blue sphere quickly transfigured into her hands. She dropped the object at the mouth of the cave and gave herself some distance before pressing the same button again. The sphere suddenly exploded, causing the ceiling above it to collapse, blocking the opening behind her. From the sudden shriek she heard on the other side, it sounded like the spider got caught in the blast as well though at worst it probably lost a few limbs in the process.
Taking the time to peel off the webbing on her shoes, Impa soon continued forward, but something was different now. It was faint, but she could see what looked like runes chiseled into the walls around her. Wait...not runes. Impa recognizes some of these symbols, they were shown in some of the books she read about the Leitandi’s ancestors. But what were Leitandi symbols doing on a planet this far from the Ascendancy?
I would use this dispatch for roleplaying tips and pointers, including stats. Although, this reminds me that I really need to update the dispatches I'm in charge of after my long absence (•-•')
Ventus Prime, Karteria, Frellor, Sorlivia, and 2 othersEast skirsburg, and New guilleana
New Raleigh, OLN
It was a cold day in the oak city. On days like this, Ariana liked to sit in a warm room somewhere in the Presidential Mansion and complete her work there. She found herself reading and re-reading the letter sent by Scherzinger. Maybe it was that post-planning regret, but something rubbed her the wrong way. She was, of course, thankful for this response. It's not every day a politically opposite nation agrees to be at your side, especially when the issue is to support more countries with which they don't agree. However, she was worried about the negotiation process. Would it work out? For one, she knows she'll be willing to do anything for her allies, but would King Erwin be willing to do the same for Ariana?
Perhaps it was her bias getting the best of her. What matters now is finding a way to support the growing rebellions in Cymiopolis and Ventus Prime, and to find a way to stop Nationalist german empire. That is what matters, first and foremost.
She took a moment to contemplate the Carolinas' current situation and how it might conflict with her diplomatic efforts in ShangXiang. There would undoubtedly be pushback from the populace; this was unavoidable. But the nation had recovered from the Hurricane with the help of Scherzinger, so perhaps Carolinians would be a little more forgiving, given the dire circumstances. Not to mention, the Carolinas had plenty to offer to make a deal sound more appealing. The New Provinces had so much new land used for agriculture, and technological development was through the roof. All of that could make a trade deal sound more appealing. Not to mention the expanded military meant that supporting the Scherzingerian army wouldn't prove too difficult if they found themselves engaged in warfare.
Ariana sighed and closed her table, on which she had read the letter. The plan had already been put into motion. Now she just had to go to ShangXiang and convince this European power that this liberal American nation was on their side. How hard could it be?
Once again, Impa scanned every inch of her surroundings. No doubt Captain Jerrin, as well as the Ascendancy itself, would be very interested in knowing all this. It made her wonder just what she stumbled upon.
At first, it seemed as if she had reached a dead end, but upon standing on a circular pattern, it suddenly lit up and started levitating off the ground. This again was something the Leitandi used frequently as an elevator of sorts, which only intensified her curiosity.
She was in another room, but this one was much larger and contained a lot more equipment. Monitors were attached to the wall, currently off, but Impa could hear the low hum in the background, meaning power was running from somewhere.
She went to one of the monitors and pressed a button. Almost instantly, the monitors turned on, displaying information in her language, information such as the temperature outside, conditions of said power sources powering this room and...vital signs?
Impa looked closer. Numbers were shooting off, but it was currently showing what appeared to be a brain scan, and it’s vitals were currently active. There was a name: Adlez. It wasn’t a name she recognized but she decided to push another glowing button.
Part of the wall next to her suddenly moved. The section went up, revealing a gap in the wall at first, before a large tank slowly came out. It was opaque for a moment before the opaqueness suddenly disappeared and Impa let out a gasp. There was someone inside!
PHAROS STARSHIPS HQ | Nicea, Antiope Minor
It was a pleasant day on the sunny shores on the Amphionian West Coast. With the arrival of Pharos, the seaside city of Nicea has overtaken Cymiopolis Eschate as the second most populous settlement on the planet and it may soon enough usurp Achilleion as the aerospace capital of the Most Serene Republic. As with the rest of Cymiopolitan Extraterrestrial Territories, Nicea has seen infrastructure projects popping up left, right and center. Coupled with the increase in tourism revenues from the NGE and other members of the Imperial Order, some Cymiopolitans have voiced their pleasure with being part of the Imperial Order. Hell, considering how Cymiopolis has kept her autonomy regarding domestic affairs, some even say the war wouldn't have even been necessary if the Nationalist german empire presented its offer with a less agressive tone. While some merchants have been disgruntled that they can no longer trade with their former allies in the Versailles Pact and other enemies of the Empire, it's not like there are not scores of other trading opportunities with neutral nations and other members of the Imperial Order.
Antonios Kriezis, CEO of Pharos, was still disgruntled. While it is true that Pharos would not have existed if it were not for the Imperial Order and the subsequent withdrawal of Pegasus from an "enemy state", he still wanted to make money by selling Cymiopolitan-made warmachines to our former allies. And thats why he scheduled a meeting with Alexandros Ypsilantis, the Minister of intelligence.
"So Mr. Kriezis, what is the occasion for this lovely meeting? By the way, this office is exquisite. Who is your interior decorator?", said the Minister after entering the door.
"Welcome Minister Ypsilantis. Here is my dear friend Mr. Kalamoutsos' business card. You won't be disappointed. As for the subject of this meeting, I take it you are aware of the trade restrictions we have under Imperial Order." , Antonios replied.
"Ah yes! Weapons can not be sold to enemies of the Empire. It was the only way we could avoid having to rebuild our fleets with those hideous grey triangles." , proclaimed the Minister.
"Precisely, but we will require the services of your dear friend Mr. Beltran-Fuentes", said Mr. Kriezis before pouring a glass of wine for his distinguished guest.
"I see where this is going, but please, carry on you old rascal."
"I want the Black Hand to create a couple shell companies posing as private space security groups who will escort trade convoys and protect them against space pirates. Obvious that will be a bunch of bullsh***, but the Empire won't think twice of it as these will be founded in neutral nations. I then want the Black Hand to open communications with our former allies in New united carolinas, Celestiam, North italian union and others under the trade embargo, and inform them that may purchase our products via these shell companies. Is that something you guys at the Ministry can do?"
"Can a fish swim in water?"
"That's what I like to hear μαλάκα!"
[OOC: You guys can now buy ships from Pharos even if you are enemies with the NGE, the early stages of resistance have begun]

It was a girl, close to Impa’s age, she guessed. But why was she here, on a supposed uninhabited world? She now had more questions than answers.
“I can’t just leave her like this...” she thought. Why she had been cryogenically put to sleep, she wasn’t sure, but she only hope the girl wasn’t dangerous. She looked back to the monitor and tapped some keys, until she found the command to open the tank.
A sudden alarm went off as the ice in the tank began to melt. Soon the tank itself opened, releasing the water inside. The girl fell out of the tank onto her knees, coughing slightly. That was a good sign at least.
Her eyes opened slightly as she got a hold of her bearings. Upon seeing Impa, she suddenly reacted, wobbling slightly as she got into a fighting stance. “Fru yna oui!? Frana ys E!?”
Impa took a step back. That was Leitandi...which only meant one thing. She put her hands out in a diffusing manner. “Ed’c ugyo, E’s hud yh ahaso. E vuiht oui eh dryd dyhg yht namaycat oui,” she said calmly.
Now it was the girl’s turn to look surprised. “Wait...you’re Leitandi as well?”
“That’s right. My name is Impa, what’s yours?”
“My name...” The girl put a hand on her head. “My head feels like it’s swimming...I don’t...”
“Well, if it helps, the monitor there says your name is Adlez.”
“Adlez...” The girl paused before recognition shown in her eyes. “Yes, that’s my name, and...wait. What year is it!?”
“It’s 2149...” Impa wasn’t sure if that number would help, but she had an idea. “Who was your leader? Before you went to sleep.”
Adlez thought for a moment. “I was assigned to protect the royal family...Jee Halen was his name.”
“Jee Halen...” It couldn’t be. Halen was one of the founding leaders of the Leitandi Ascendancy ....over a thousand years ago. “Adlez...I’m not sure how to say this but...you’ve been asleep well over a thousand years.”
Adlez looked down. “Then that means...everyone here was...” She shook her head. “I need to see what it’s like outside.”
“There’s no one else here, we scanned the planet before I came here.”
“Scanned? Like on a ship?”
“I have a feeling I have a lot to catch you up on.”
“Very well, you can tell me along the way,” Adlez said, heading towards the door before stopping. “...After I get dressed of course.”
She pressed her palm against what appeared to be a scanner. The wall next to it opened and revealed a stand for clothing as well as gear propped up behind it. She quickly got dressed before equipping her gear. Impa wasn’t sure if she was imagining things but the girl had a crossbow, one that both looked ancient and futuristic, as well as what appeared to be the hilt of a sword.
Once she was ready, she turned back to Impa. “Now then...Impa was it? Shall we go?”

It was a cold and windy evening in Midino. The streets were still unusually barren, atypical for the normally bustling city of thousands. Within the Capitol, President Takalska paced back and forth in her office, clearly pensive yet anxious. Minister Sonja Paralkar, who had been watching over her, simply wondered when the President would finally sit down. She had known Nikita for a long time, and knew it was better to just let her sort things out. She eventually spoke, seeking to break the monotony of the event, and ideally to give Nikita a distraction.
"You look like you don't get payed enough for this job" she said softly. Nikita scoffed at this with an amused smirk, but still said nothing.
"You wanna talk about it?" Sonja said sweetly. "It's a tad hard for me to help you if you... y'know... keep doing that." With this Nikita finally stopped pacing, and turned towards the Minister sitting across the room.
"Plans..." she began. "Plans that, truthfully, I have much doubt of. However, I believe that something must be done: Kadiya cannot idle by while..." she paused. Sonja gave a confused expression, not entirely sure where this was going. President Takalska finally spoke again, this time with a bit more of her usual cheer.
"I'll assemble a meeting tonight. I would like you to attend, for I feel it is important. Fear not, I'll do my best to answer your questions there. War room at 8:30?"
"Sounds good M'lady, I'll be sure to arrive promptly. But please ma'am, don't over exert yourself. These are trying times, after all."
President Takalska smiled and patted Minister Paralkar on the back.
"Duly noted. See you then."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Midino, Kadiya, 8:30 P.M
The doors to the war room clicked, and the quiet chatter ceased soon after. President Takalska stood in front of the table filled with ministers, advisors, and generals. It became clear that this meeting was no ordinary one, especially given how it was called on such short notice. After a few moments of silence,
President Takalska spoke.
"Ladies, Gentlemen, Countrymen... as you may know, our world has been rocked yet again. I'm sure you're all aware of the 70 day shutdown that plagued Kadiya, the massive rebuilding necessary for our recovery. During our absence, two friendly nations have fallen to one of our greatest foes, all within our absence. Cymiopolis and Ventus Prime, who possessed two of the mightiest space fleets known to man, have fallen to the might of the Nationalist german empire."
Several gasps and looks of dismay spread around the room, understandable given the news. However, the worst was yet to come.
"Not only have they been decimated while our watch was lowered, but I have reason to believe that Kadiya may suffer a very similar fate."
Concern now spread across the room like wildfire. A heated discussion nearly broke out, but they settled to allow the President to explain.
"This is of course uncertain, but I will not leave Kadiya unprepared. Early on, we have been one of NGE's largest critics, and have constantly been at odds. Though we have never engaged in open war, our fleets have engaged one another in our defense of the North italian union and Five Sicilys's extraterrestrial colonies. Our ideals clash, we have engaged before, and now two friends of ours lay defeated. What is to stop them from targeting us next? We have proven ourselves defiant and unafraid of German imperialism, but if they decided to attack, there would be little we could do. They're isolating their enemies. They've destroyed the Ventuan and Cymiopolitan fleets, and may very well seek to target us, especially with less support on our behalf. These are desperate times, and thus call for desperate measures. I have plans— plans which, I admit, are highly ambitious. However, they can only strengthen our position, and possibly allow us to liberate Ventus Prime and Cymiopolis from chains."
She pressed a few buttons on the table, and a holographic political/physical map of South Asia sprung up.
"I plan on expanding Kadiya's borders. This will give us more room for terrestrial bases and economization, something our nation sorely needs. I plan on expanding up the Indian coast to Maharashtra, and then eastward, all the way to Vietnam."
As she spoke, Kadiya's holographic borders expanded into the unclaimed territory, giving it a much more competent appearance.
"These lands are lawless and unorganized; the ruins of once great civilization. We can assist in the reconstruction of these areas under one banner, all the while making ourselves more competent internationally. I have several other additions and changes of which I will email you later. Next... my international strategy. In order to both open Kadiya up to more opportunities and bolster our position against potential attack, we need allies. Strong ones. We must resume communication with the rest of SAPO, Japan... all of our friends and allies, and we must do it immediately."
President Takalska continued her discussion, and after everyone in the room had spoken their piece, she dismissed them all and adjourned the meeting. She then returned to her office, where she knew she'd have a night full of writing ahead of her. She sent out a series of letters, one to the leader of each nation she had in mind. She only prayed a response would arrive in the near future...
To Queen Émillie VII of Celestiam,
Your majesty, I write to you of an offer, one I hope you will consider. Kadiya has had little contact with Celestiam, although I seek to change this. We share common allies, common ideals, and common foes, and thus it seems only natural to send my greetings. It is my hope that Kadiya and Celestiam may become allies, and sign an official agreement between us, promoting trade, welfare, and defense. Though it would be a most welcome occasion to have this offer be my only point, sadly it is not so. I am sure you are aware of the Nationalist German Empire, and their actions towards both Ventus Prime and Cymiopolis. I fear that they may choose to target Kadiya, something I hope does not come to fruition. With the help of Celestiam, it is my hope that we may deter the German Empire from openly attacking, and perhaps assist in liberating Cymiopolis and Ventus Prime from the reigns of the Germans. Please consider my words, and thank you for your time.
—Nikita Takalska, President of Kadiya
To King Nicola I of the North italian union,
Your highness, it is with both urgency and an offer of friendship that I write to you this day. With your approval, I wish to establish formal relations between the North Italian Union and Kadiya. It would seem only a natural step, given our cooperation in the past, and shared allies and ideals. However, it is not entirely pleasant news that I bring, as mentioned previously. I have reason to believe that the Nationalist German Empire will not stop their conquests at Cymiopolis and Ventus Prime, but will continue to smother their enemies. I fear that Kadiya may fall within their crosshairs, and if this proves to be so, my nation could very well fall. It is my hope that with an alliance between our nations we can not only deter NGE from attacking either of us or our allies, but also assist in the liberation of our fallen friends. I do hope you consider my words, and thank you for your time.
—Nikita Takalska, President of Kadiya
To President Ariana Thompson of the New united carolinas,
Madame President, I sincerely hope this letter reaches you well. It is my hope that, given our shared ideals, allies, and past cooperation, that we may establish formal relations between our two nations. In this chaotic world, it is important to have allies you can depend on, and I pray that Kadiya may be able to fill that role. However, I admit that this letter is not solely of good events. It is my belief that the Nationalist German Empire may target Kadiya following its successful campaigns against both Cymiopolis and Ventus Prime, something I greatly fear. Should the Carolinas and Kadiya back each other, the Germans would ideally be dissuaded from hostile actions, and we may be able to lend some much needed assistance to our fallen allies. Thank you for taking the time to read this letter, and I do hope we can work something out.
—Nikita Takalska, President of Kadiya
To President Amanda Miller of New spiedska,
Dear friend, I hope you have been well. I apologize for the lack of communication, Kadiya has suffered a massive and crippling shutdown, something we are still recovering from. I would like to, if possible, strengthen diplomatic ties between our nations. New Spiedska is quite popular at home, and for good reason; it is a shining pillar of democracy and hope, something Kadiya and her people quite value. Sadly, I write this letter not only to wish good tidings, but to make yet another request of you. Tying in with my earlier request to strengthen our nations' bonds, I ask for your help. I fear that the Nationalist German Empire will strike Kadiya next, having already subdued Cymiopolis and Ventus Prime. I humbly request your aid, not only to deter attack, but to possibly liberate our dear allies from German chains. I do hope you consider, and I apologize for not writing with less urgent news.
—Nikita Takalska, President of Kadiya
To Foreign Affairs Minister Sano Suzuki of The sakura nippon
Minister Suzuki, I do hope you are well. I must apologize for the lack of contact from Kadiya; we have suffered from a massive seventy day shutdown, and we are steadily recovering. First and foremost, I must inquire: is Japan still interested in joining SAPO? If so, Kadiya will happily resume trade, and assist in the further development of Japan. Regardless of whether or not Japan has changed its mind regarding SAPO, I would like to re-establish communications between our nations, and hopefully form an official alliance. It is during these trying times that allies are most helpful, and I hope that Kadiya may be there should Japan need it. I eagerly await your reply.
—Nikita Takalska, President of Kadiya
Snow showered from the heavens, covering the entire glacial valley in copious amounts of the powdery, dense material. A small team was walking to a cliffside in the valley, digging and shivering through the layers that piled up more than 4 feet in height. In 5 hours, they were to reach the cliffside that they needed, but then came the hardest part- a blowtorch would have to melt through a -45 degree metal door. They excavated a large hole in the snow, around 300 feet in diameter and 7 feet deep where the door was. Then they got out a miniature nuclear reactor to generate the heat concentration and began to melt through the steel, tungsten, and many alloys that made up the vault. Around 2 weeks later, they broke through, reaching the inside of an old pre-war lab. Mist layered the floors, and it was dark. This was the beginning of project Anti.

After his meeting with the Leitandi, the governor begins scouting Cetus, and begins building a third fleet. He decides to scout out the numerous gas giants in his sizable sector of the area for habitable moons. As there are many gas giants in the Constellation, he hopes to find at least 4 suitable candidates.

ShangXiang Scherzinger
Day of Meeting between New united carolinas and Scherzinger
It was a grey overcast day. It had been raining off and on throughout. Erwin looked out the window with a tinge of joy. This was his favourite kind of weather. He lost himself in the beauty of the weather, turning around to remind himself of the dismal situation that he found himself in. 3 Emperors preceded Erwin, and none of them made dealings with nations of liberal standing, much less invited them to the nation. He stared at the ceiling of the room he was in, admiring the beautiful painting on the ceiling. He sighed with disappointment, contemplating the decision he had made.
The soft patter of Momo's feet was heard shuffling around the room. Momo was tidying up the room, keeping herself busy with chores she made for herself. After hearing her husband, the sound halted, and she quickly moved over to Erwin. "Erwin my dear, is there....something wrong?" She asked. "Sweetheart, my angel, never in the history of our nation have we invited a nation such as the New united carolinas to our nation. It would be the first time a liberal nation has stepped foot in Scherzinger, On top of that, a democratic nation. Usually we invite the likes of Emperors and Empresses to the nation, like minded people and those who are far easier to deal with." He started.
"It seems like a rather large waste of time to be having this meeting. We fundamentally disagree on the political ideals, the governmental structure of our nations, our values? Do you really think that this is a good idea?" Erwin finished. Momo sat down, crossing her beautifully toned legs. "Erwin my love, in times like these, where the nazis are putting their filthy hands on anything and everything that they can put a name to, one must put aside their differences and attempt to make some sort of deal. Nobody is saying that we have to be best friends. Though that would be absolutely amazing for global relations. All I am merely implying, is that after we assisted with their hurricane relief efforts, the least we could do is follow u and see if they require any further assistance. And who is to say they dont feel the same about us? We are a Monarchy with conservative values. We are the political enemy to them, imagine how their President must feel about all of this. Though, that said, why dont you at least give it the slightest tinge of positivity. Maybe they would like to thank us for our efforts. Perhaps they might be here to reward us. Or maybe youll get a medal. You've always wanted a medal from a foreign nation." Momo said.
Erwin looked in the mirror, adjusting his uniform, polishing his medals, and putting his Officer's cap on. The braid shone a magnificent gold and the brim a lustered black. "I suppose that makes sense. I hope we didn't extend our generosity for nothing." Erwin said. Erwin & Momo left the room, and gathered their other diplomats. Hiei and Hannah ( https://i.imgur.com/Mxn2EBC.png ) joined this meeting, they waited outside for President Ariana to arrive. Erwin shook his head, hoping that he wouldn't regret this decision.
