Excellent! I'm just going to refer to them as "Finnballs" since I am bad at Finnish. - 1 ton of Finnballs shall be put out to the market, to foster trade ties. Prioritize relations with our fellow Nords in Sweden, Norway, Iceland, and Estonia. - 2 more tons of Finnballs shall be put into workers' benefits. Finland cares about its workers! (also, hopefully, foreign workers will be attracted by the prospect of delicious meatballs...) - The remaining 1 ton shall be put into military R&D: developing the pride and joy of the Finnish Army's special forces - Ski Infantry! Accept Canada's offer. We don't actually have a church, but I'm sure the nationalist-LARPing types will be happy to go over and proselytize! I will also send another communique, this time to the above-mentioned Nordic nations. I will offer a free trade agreement, with significantly lowered tariffs for trading each of our respective national resources. Your donations to the market have slightly improved your relations with the other Nordic countries. Your improvements to workers benefits have also generally improved your image in the world, and people seem more willing to talk to you. You officially create the Ski Infantry, although it is not very technologically ahead of any competition it has. You'll have to put some more tons of Finnballs into it to get the upper hand. At the end of the turn you have 4 tons of Finnballs Canada accepts Antarctica's Migration Treaty. Now our people can each have summer homes, in the warmer of either frozen landscapes! It seems like your relationship with Antartica is blossoming into a mutually beneficial relationship. This, however, seems to be straining your interactions with the United States. It appears they wanted to claim the Marie-Byrd Land, and now that it's independent and recognized by another country, you, they cannot lay claim to it. They seem slightly bitter about it. Also, Finland accepts your request even if it doesn't have much of a religion that their title is based on. I'm not an idiot, of course I'll accept! I think now I'll focus on vodka and Super vodka production, and send some brave astronauts to Mars! With potato, of course, Mars Vodka is good. With your newfound area in which you can easily launch it, you send a couple people, some supplies, and a whole load of potatoes. They should arrive at the end of the next turn.  You gain ⅔ of a ton of Super Vodka at the end of the turn. (The factories are actually automatic, so you don't need to specifically focus on it each turn). "That sounds great, how many souls do you need?" Meanwhile one of my assistants reads a mail I sent earlier about how I want to build a second enclosure dam completely surrounding Terschelling, Vlieland, en Schiermonnikoog to both create more land and spite the most ancient enemy of the Dutch Neptune or Poseidon or whatever the name of the name of the god of the seas is and to spend 10 tons of hutspot on it. Oh and also to create another 12 Hommels. He responds: You spend 4 tons to create another 12 hommels. Your plan to dam the Wadden Sea is ambitious, and will probably require 6-7 tons of your National Resource. It may require more time to work completely though.

Thank you very much, Tim of Canada! Now, if we have no further matters to discuss I believe I will return to Antarctica to focus on internal matters.
First things first, increasing fish production:
==> Antarctica: Spend 4 tons of fish to buy the loyalty of more penguins to help with fishing
Also,
==> Antarctica: Check current fish stockpile

2 more tons of Finnballs shall go into better equipment and training for the Ski Infantry!
A further 2 tons, minus one meatball, shall go into diplomatic efforts. Let's see... let's use it to build up better ties with Estonia, to start off. The end goal is to reach some kind of merger, but I'm not sure how much food that'll take...
I will take the remaining meatball and throw it across the Russian border, because it amuses me.

"Oh I can afford easily 8 souls how do I send them to you?" The construction of the Superoverlyargeandquitefranklypoorlythoughtout Enclosure Dam (or Solaqfpto Dam for short) begins He responds: Your construction of the enclosure dam is halfway done due to you having a lot of tons of Hutspot to throw at it, plus there being a series of islands in the middle of where you're planning to build. Since it's costing around 5 tons, you are left with 13 tons of Hutspot at the end of your turn. It'll probably be done by the end of the next turn. > Go to the Great Temple and pray to Make-make and to the spirit of your ancestors, specifically the spirit of Māui, for advice and assistance to bring back Easter Island to its former glory.
> Declare Spanish illegal. We have sullied our mouths with the language of the conquerors for long enough.

How many Moai do you currently have under your command ? > If you have any umus left after this, build as many factories as you can.
After praying, you have a feeling fortune will be in your favor. Your ban on Spanish has been controversial, and the parts of the population that are mainland Chileans are finding it difficult to adjust to the change. It seems like some people are still speaking Spanish in private. The new Maoi are awake and are ready to help. You are able to build 3 new factories on the island, but you are encountering a new problem. You're starting to run out of areas to build the new factories on the island. Maybe you'll be able to expand it somehow? You also have 8 tons of Umu at the end of the turn because you managed to make back the money you spent on the factories. Meanwhile, at the UN Brazil "Oh yeah mates, forgot to tell ya... we have nukes now... what ya gonna do bout it? We don't plan to use them or anything, I'm just saying brothers. I'm going look for oil in my sea You've alerted the U.N about your nuke supply. This news is pretty quickly spread, and people are having a lot of mixed reactions about it, although no actual action is taken against you. You've found some Oil in the South Pacific. Thank you very much, Tim of Canada! Now, if we have no further matters to discuss I believe I will return to Antarctica to focus on internal matters. First things first, increasing fish production: ==> Antarctica: Spend 4 tons of fish to buy the loyalty of more penguins to help with fishingAlso, ==> Antarctica: Check current fish stockpileIn current world news, it's wondered why so many penguins are migrating to Marie Byrd Land. That's because you've spent 4 tons of fish. This increases the amount from 2 tons a day to 4. You currently have 20 tons of fish because the Penguins have been regularly fishing throughout the turns. > Make an agreement with Germany, Austria, and Switzerland that essentually turns them into puppet states of my new empire, but without making it obvious to the rest of the world. > After that meet up with Tim of Canada to dicuss his terms for opening up locations of the Church of Ribel in Canada. Be sure to wear a nice hat for the meeting. You seem to get an enthusiastic agreement from both Austria and Switzerland's leaders, but Germany starts to resist the Mind Control. The president of Germany quickly storms out of the room before he signs the agreement. While it appears he hasn't told anyone what's happened in the meeting, possibly because he doesn't entirely believe it himself, he has banned the import of Ribel into Germany. This move is controversial, and several people are questioning why he'd make such a specific ban. You meet up with Prime Minister Tim. You two are now free to converse. I'm not an idiot, of course I'll accept! I think now I'll focus on vodka and Super vodka production, and send some brave astronauts to Mars! With potato, of course, Mars Vodka is good. (This is just me quoting you again, because you hadn't actually made a post this round, but I still have news to inform you of about the men about to land on mars.) A collective sigh of relief is felt through the room as news comes back that the Cosmonauts have made it to Mars with only a few relatively minor hiccups on the way. Then, a party. However, some slightly shocking news is revealed. There's somebody up there calling themselves "Marcus Armstrong" who appears to have been living up there for a while. He claims to have been left there in the Mid-70's and has been farming potatoes to survive ever since. He appears to be an American Astronaut, but he seems bitter towards both N.A.S.A and the U.S for leaving him there. Should you ally with this man, or oppose him? You also recieve word that a meatball has been thrown over the Finnish-Russian border. 2 more tons of Finnballs shall go into better equipment and training for the Ski Infantry!A further 2 tons, minus one meatball, shall go into diplomatic efforts. Let's see... let's use it to build up better ties with Estonia, to start off. The end goal is to reach some kind of merger, but I'm not sure how much food that'll take... I will take the remaining meatball and throw it across the Russian border, because it amuses me. Some improvements have been made to the Ski's, including potential Rocket Skis being in development. The Skii Infantry is also generally better trained than any other skii-based infantry in the world (of which there are currently none other than your own). Estonia is grateful for the meatballs, and doesn't notice the missing meatball. It seems like there'll need to be more than food to justify a merger, but it does help a little.

A meatball has been thrown to our border? You cannot mock me, I will create kotlet to throw over your border! I will even leave a message that can be construed as either a declaration of Meat War or Meat Alliance. This God-Emperor is free to decide which one. actually no he does not get a choice I would like to ally with him in meat products, I heard Brazil has nukes. |

I order my secret police to get 8 hobo'and/or criminals and make sure they know what to do with their captives.
Meanwhile I decide to try and forge several alliances, after all We Dutch won't be able to defeat the God of the sea on our own.
Dear whoever is in charge of Russia, I have recently heard of your country's totally sensible love of potato's and your ambitious plan to harvest Mars potato's. While we Dutch don't turn them into alcohol, as a rule we too are rather fond of spuds and as such I propose an alliance between us.

To Enter Issac: supreme ruler (and only permanent resident) of Antarctica,
Congrats on the increase of fish production and the use of solar panels for electricity, Like you my people have a vested interest in preventing the icebergs from melting and as such I'd like to propose setting up trade between our nations, some of your herring for a share of our carrots and endive.

Invite Argentina to a game of soccer I guess, that would be fun... and will distract the population from... the militarization project!! Yes that's right, we're deploying soldiers to patrol Venezuela's borders! No commies here!
Also, I will increase the amount of people recruited for the army, and force women to do a check in, like men. They want equality? They will have it!
But it's all fine because they're watching Brazil vs Argentina, so they won't even notice.

I did not come up with a name for myself and I think it'll stay that way. "So Brazil has nukes, how do you feel about that?" You're able to pick up a kotlet at a local supermarket and throw it over the border. Its message has been sent. You start an alliance with the Dutch. With the help of Marcus, you are able to join the materials you've sent to create a station with his current makeshift one to create the Bakunin Mars Station, currently nearby Gale Crater. Marcus is appreciative of your efforts and gladly supports your efforts to produce Moon Vodka. He, however, warns of going in a specific direction. "Do not go there! That's Curiosity's territory." The potatoes he produces, along with yours, are able to produce 2 per turn. You're unable to immediately access these martian potatoes and have to send a shuttle to receive a shipment of them, which may take a turn or two depending on how close mars is.

Seems like operation Trojan Hommel will be the way to go after all." You receive word that several zombies have been rising out of the ground on the islands nearby the work sites, and have assisted the workers there on finishing the dams. With their help, the Dam is finished early and has started draining water from the Wadden Sea. You receive word that Russia has accepted your Alliance, and Antartica accepts your trade deal. > Sacrifice your Umus to Make-make at the temple and ask him to raise the seafloor around the island to expand it. > Do not take direct action against Spanish speakers, but distribute propaganda calling them traitors and explaining how they are disrespecting our ancestors, and that if they wanna live on their island, they'd better learn their language.
The sea levels seem to drop as you sacrifice some of your Umu's. You hear it starting to recede by the 6th Umu, so you stop as you realize Make-Make is satisfied. This will probably grant enough space for 5 more factories. Some people are legitimately trying to leave on the next boat to mainland Chile, who seems slightly confused about the whole situation and decides to just take them back, and some are trying to adjust. Most are trying to leave. Invite Argentina to a game of soccer I guess, that would be fun... and will distract the population from... the militarization project!! Yes that's right, we're deploying soldiers to patrol Venezuela's borders! No commies here!

But it's all fine because they're watching Brazil vs Argentina, so they won't even notice. Argentina agrees and you have a soccer game in which both sides are very enthusiastically rooting for their teams, enough so to fulfill it's purpose of distracting them from your military projects. You notice that quite a few people who were supposed to check in have skipped that to go to the game, but this gives you another idea. A lot of Brazilians are angrily rooting for their team while opposing Argentina's team, and generally seem physically fit. They may be useful in the army.

They're sure to provide enough power to keep a significant number of people alive during the winder. Because of Antartica's hostile environment, your prefab houses are mostly underground, so It's more like a series of Prefab bunkers. Still, this is good for immigration. Your airport is built, and because of the whole 10 fish you put into it you've signifigantly advanced your airport so they can land in the sometimes high wind speeds and cold temperatures of Antartica with little issue. You've also started a Trade with the Netherlands, sending valueable vegetables into your territory as to prevent nutritional deficiencies. You're currently trading 1 ton of fish per turn for all the vegetables they offer you. At the end of the turn you are left with 3 tons of Fish.
I've not actually done anything with any Trade Deals with any Resources you all have, so I'm going to start putting those into effect now instead of any retroactive changes. Because of this, I'm going to say that Gold/Finland is releasing 1 ton of Finnballs into the market each turn after this because of his mentioned release of his finnballs into the market plus the mentioned trade offers.

I don't know how this alliance will start, but whatever.
For starters, I will instruct my astronauts to not encroach on Curiosity's territory. After that, I will send a shuttle to pick up some potatoes, maybe two depending if Marcus wants to go back.
Back on Earth, I will send half my potatoes to the Dutch, because it feels like the appropriate thing to do. This will halve my general vodka production for the next turn, but I assume we'll be fine. We may even get something nice!
As for the final touch ups... the Dutch Grandmaster warned me about not trying to provoke Brazil. Let's invest the vodka I have in clean, efficient energy, maybe something like fusion energy! The cheaper I can make everything else, the more I can focus on vodka, huhuhu.

Good, the Chileans can run away if they want to, we do not need them anyways. Only the Natives will remain, just as intended. (Althought since the population of Easter Island is still mostly comprised of natives, I don't think such a large amount of people would leave ? According to wikipedia, only 39% of the inhabitants are mainland Chileans.)

((Assuming my income remains a flat 4/turn for the time being, I'll leave my market contribution as just the initial 1 ton for now))
This turn shall just be for diplomacy, as I will wait and not spend anything.
However, I will Accept Russia's offer for a meat production alliance. Let us share our technical knowledge and experience, in the hopes for mutual benefits!
I will also talk to the leader of Estonia, and ask what their ambitions are. Every country wants to accomplish something, and I do sincerely hope we have common aims to be shared.
Check on the progress of the Rocket Skis, and encourage further developments of that kind.
Lastly, I will announce the International Meatball Alliance, a diplomatic organization for all nations who appreciate meatballs. Let us sally forth into the future together! Suomi on hienoa!

Let's invest the vodka I have in clean, efficient energy, maybe something like fusion energy! The cheaper I can make everything else, the more I can focus on vodka, huhuhu. The cosmonauts do not attempt to go to Curiosity's territory, and not much has really changed. They have grown 4 tons of Martian Potatoes so far, but it'll take the shuttle a turn to get there and a turn to get back, so you should expect a shipment of 6 potatoes. You send half of the superpotatoes (for the supervodka) you've produced on earth this turn to the Dutch, leaving you only producing one third of a ton of potatoes for supervodka. You use the two and one-third tons of supervodka to produce a new clean nuclear fuel source. This boosts production of supervodka slightly so you now produce 1 ton of supervodka per turn. Good, the Chileans can run away if they want to, we do not need them anyways. Only the Natives will remain, just as intended.

The Tidal Plant increases the efficiency of the factories slightly, gaining you 1 more ton of Umu every turn. The Yam farm also generally increases the morale of the people here. This costs you 4 tons of UMU. There are some schools and a hospital, but a College would be good to establish. You build 5 factories, and they produce 10 tons of Umu. You are left with 11 tons of Umu at the end of the turn. Instead of caring, I will expand my industries so I can produce more Feijoda. You build your first factory, the Salvador Fábrica. It produces 2 tons of Feijoda on its first turn. ((Assuming my income remains a flat 4/turn for the time being, I'll leave my market contribution as just the initial 1 ton for now)) This turn shall just be for diplomacy, as I will wait and not spend anything.

It's functional, but one problem is the fact that the Rocket Skis really increase the weight of the person skiing, plus it they're just as likely to hit a tree or something. Heavy training plus development of less fuel intensive rockets is necessary to allow for this to be an efficient way to outskii the opponent. (I thought it was going to be where you contribute 1 ton to the market each turn, but since you've stated the market contribution is just 1 ton I'll just leave it at its normal rate).

Greetings, I am Mr Jazz and I have declared myself as God-King of Tasmania. Mostly because God-Emperor was used twice already.

Diplomacy: Shrug in resignation. Send one meatball (not one ton, just one) to the newly-crowned God-King of Tasmania. Enclosed in the package will be a recipe for Finnish brown sauce, and an inquiry as to if Tasmania has good brown sauce.
In addition, I will send INMA invitations to:
- Italy (self-explanatory)
- Sweden (ditto)
- Mexico (albondigas)
- USA (Italian-inspired meatballs)
- Turkey (kofte)
- Brazil (almondegas)
- Japan (tsukune)
- Vietnam (bo vien)
I'm sure I'm missing some, but these were the big meatball producers that came to mind... in the invitation, I'll also make it clear that this is in no way a binding defensive pact, or anything. Just a mutual meatball tech-sharing and cooperation treaty!
Technology: I shall focus on the rockets first. 2 tons of Finnballs into ski-rocket optimization!
In addition to rocket skis, I will also instruct our researchers to take whatever advances they pick up and apply them to making regular skis more aerodynamic and effective in general.
Economy: Nothing yet. Though, with two spent on R/D, I should just about hit 10 next turn.
Culture: Assess the current popularity of Finnish culture, and in particular of Finnish meatballs, abroad.

I write a thank you note to the leader of Russia and will send him a shipment of our Dutch potato's of equal value to the super ones as soon as I have enough, if I already have enough I will do so right now.
Next I will keep my promise to Issac and order a ship carrying half a ton f carrots and a half ton of endive to set sail to Antarctica
