Urbanites Cancels Alliance

[Grub (Lenlyvit)]

Unfortunatley, the Urbanites have decided end all alliances and let the chips fall as they may. For the record, we stood by the Urbanites for over two years, and liberated and defended them several times.

The Urbanites were one of the regions that came to the aid of the then 15 nation region of the 10000 Islands when we were attacked without reason. We wish the Urbanites well, but it will be sad to see their region fall into disrepair and into the hands of invaders from time to time.

"*****PRESS RELEASE******

The Urbanites region would like to announce the following:

As of today, the 2nd September 2005, the Urbanites region will no longer officially participate in international events. We formally withdraw from all alliances we are currently members of and thank them for their support. We will no longer require representatives from your organisations and nor will we have any officially appointed nations participating in talks.

As of today please consider all opinions/information given in the name of the Urbanites region to be solely from the immediate source and not from the region itself.

There are many out there who deserve our thanks for their contributions to our region but unfortunately we cannot name them all here. The Alliance of Socialist States has always been one of our closest allies from the early days as have those at The Proletariat Coalition and for your support we are eternally grateful.

Do not think that we have all disappeared though! The "Elder" Urbanites will still be checking in regularly but the region is now a resting place so please respect this. One day we may choose to rise again but for now we bid you farewell.

-Urbanites-
(Endorsed by Free Iuthia: Delegate) "

*sighs

I'm sad to see this happen.

[Serconea]

Does that mean any TITOers who are in the Urbanites should come home?

[Sarcastic Librarians]

Not my decision, but that sounds right, to me. If they are withdrawing support from us, we should do the same thing. not out of spite, but as a matter of protocol.

[Jesioneka]

My ambassadorial unit has been ordered to move out eventually, so I would imagine TITO would as well. Best to check with a TO first, of course.

And yes, I am saddened too by the end of the alliance, as I've said before elsewhere. After all, now I'm out of a job It's a pity we've lost our last vestiges to the days when 10KI was a young and helpless newborn region (not that I was around for the very very beginning). On the bright side, I'm not sure alliances really mean much anymore for us, this coming from the ambassador there. Hah. But it will be interesting to see if we forge any new ones--a question I might pose in the senatorial elections coming up--so watch out incumbents and candidates!

[Bad Infinitum]

If they've asked the diplomacy to leave, I believe it is more than fitting for the military to follow suit.

[Serconea]

Thanks. Sorry if I broke any rules by discussing deployments in a publically viewable thread.
