Allright, 21 million off a 60 billion dollor budget isn't that bad.

[FutureEngland]

if you ever need funding for some thing just TG or send me a PM within reason

[Henneth annun]

Okay

[Power45]

I would buy 2, (how do we know our budget)

[Henneth annun]

You make one up but relate it to the economy

[Nulibert]

Actually, you should use a GDP calculator. One can be found here: 10000islands.proboards21.com/index.cgi?board=Library&action=display&thread=1075528889

[FutureEngland]

power45: your military budget is $8,549,164,000 and your request for to of these as been accepted and 2 of the minuteman 3 missiles come to a total of 14 million i am waiting for comfirmation from you

[turkmenbashy]

We, the nation of Türkmenbashy, are not currently a nuclear power in spite of large quantities of uranium found in the Qara-Nygarno region. However, we do realise the efficacy of the nuclear deterrent, and as such, until a nuclear weapons programme is operational, my Ministry of Defence has proposed the purchase of 10 Minuteman missiles in order to safeguard Türkmenbashy's sovereignty and territorial integrity.

Our total military budget is US$7 billion, which is 1% of our total budget of US$800 billion, so such a purchase is well within our means. Rest assured that under no circumstances will these be used in an act of aggression against other 10000 Islanders.

Yours,

Sultan Saparmurat I

[FutureEngland]

Turkmenbashy: your order has been accepted and your total bill is $70 million as soon as you confirm we will send the 10 minuteman 3 missiles as well as blue prints

we being a friendly nation would like to have an embassy from your nation and one from our nation to be in yours

[turkmenbashy]

I, Sultan Saparmurat I, do hereby affix my Official Seal to this contract , and declare it binding on my part. I have wired M2.24 billion ($70 million, see exchange rate table, my economy is currently 'Strong') to your account. If you are at all interested in purchasing some of the high quality pitchblende coming out of our newly opened mines, please do let me know and we can arrange something.

I will be only too happy to receive your ambassador. On my part, I will be sending Ozbeg Khan, Seventh Prince of the Gyuktypy Tribe, as ambassador to Future England. May the friendship between both our nations grow ever stronger!

Sultan Saparmurat I

[FutureEngland]

i thank you for your ambassador and we will send mark riley a employee of the ambassadors department and we will get back to you about the pitchblende from the mine i will send a TG about that

[Power45]

[turkmenbashy]

I believe there's a conversion table buried somewhere in this forum.
