Rise of the Arabs (Map Game)

 The Game continues 

In 1958 Egypt and Syria unify into a unitary state of the UAR which promptly collapses within 3 years. If they had made a devolved federal state giving each former constituent republic a great deal of power. How long and how big could it have got? Well you figure it out. The year is 1965, the UAR consisting of the former states of Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Jordan and North Yemen are at high tension levels with Israel. America gets deeper and deeper into Vietnam, the Space Race is underway and the whole world is reeling in tensions from the Cold War.

Backstory

 * PoD: In 1958, Egypt and Syria create a federal state leaving devolved powers while establishing a basic constitutional framework of common foreign policy, defence and customs while Syria is established as a semi- democracy and semi army ruled state.
 * As Syria maintains a great deal of independence, the new government of Iraq joins the UAR in 1958.
 * The three states do well at keeping close together with Nasser of Egypt controlling foreign policy and aspects of defence (with each state having their own army) as well as the application of customs. A lot of support is given to Fedayeen units operating in the West Bank and Jordan with these units being supplied mortars and RPGs. Radio Cairo also spreads propaganda into Jordanian cities and the West Bank
 * PoD: Al- Badr fails to escape in the 1962 North Yemen coup and is caught and executed. The civil war never breaks out although there is still low level insurgency by the tribes with no leader to rally behind and so not much happens.
 * In 1963, a 19 man raid by the Fedayeen from the West Bank into Israel leaves 2 Israeli soldiers dead and 4 wounded leading to an Israeli retaliatory strike into the West Bank to clear out what they believe to be a major Fedayeen camp. The Jordanian army refuses to respond leading to an uprising in the West Bank against Jordanian rule, this uprising spreads into Amman where protesters have street battles with local police until a UAR tank division intervenes and strikes south over the border while after large bribes 2 of Jordan's senior commanders each with a brigade under their command launch a coup and declare the monarchy dead and they are now a part of the UAR. Actual fighting is limited and mainly some resistance by the tribes to the UAR occupation but low level.
 * Tensions continue to rise with Israel but no war as of 1965 while Arabs across the middle east and beyond especially in Libya and the Arabian peninsula are heavily agitated against their current British or monarch rulers.

The Game
 

1970.0
''' Violence in China contuines although with less intesity than previously with limited Soviet casualties as the Chinese don't respond and offer a peace treaty giving Manchuria and Xianjaing to the USSR and Inner Mongolia to China as the situation grows out of control in exchange for medical and food supplies as the government threatens to lose control. '''

''' Hainan falls to the US with a several thousand marines casualties. '''

''' In Sudan the army moves in and attacks rebel positions but fails to take them and requests UAR air support. While in Libya the coup is now more secure and manages to drive most of the rebels into the desert. '''

''' In South Vietnam, there is continued resistance to the US brutality but heavy suppression of movement between the 2 countries limits the flow of weapons. '''

''' As East Germany becomes open to reunification they enter talks with West Germany who are also interested and West Germany offers reunification with full democracy provided the US and USSR agree. '''

''' Weapons and men flow into Mexico from the USSR. '''

''' A clash between peaceful protesters and South African police leaves 40 dead with a number of children as they protest against teaching Afrikaans in school. '''

''' Having considered North Vietnam's offer at the end of the year, the United States tentatively agrees to the ceasefire terms suggested, and agrees to an Indochina ceasefire along such terms. Further, the United States requests the Soviet Union host a peace conference between both the US and its South Vietnamese allies and the North Vietnamese. The location may be decided upon by the Soviets with input by Hanoi, in order to give the North Vietnamese a concession due to their conciliatory attitude. '''

Turkey: The National - Democrat party forms and gains popularity. It seeks to fight the UAR aggression as the Arabs betrayed the Turks during the Arab revolt, and strengthen ties with Saudi Arabia. 50,000 troops are sent into Yemen to fight side by side with the Saudis.
 * Saudi Arabia:
 * (In nation)king Fasil OTL begins to modernize the nation, with banning Slavery and working on improving cities and allowing Women into the school system. The new Whabbi Imam Hassan Ali Talib is known as the moving Imam as he is known for moving and giving out speeches across Arabia. Along with opening relationship with the UAR. The Saud Petroleum Company (SPC) continues drilling projects across established petroleum zones across the nation. We begin to work on a nuclear program for peaceful use looking for the means of making Urimunim or Platinum looking into the black market, we begin to work on a space program as scientist work to get a rocket in L.O.E. The King fear the aftermath of the war in China and says he heart is out for the people. secret The Saudis begin to work on a nuclear program making a nuclear reactor thing as the scientist are let lose. The King begins to work on other ways of getting money as he starts to work on opening factories to mass produce things from toys - furniture
 *   **Turkish Diplomacy:  Due to the fact that our top leaders doubt your nuclear program is peaceful,  our air force airstrikes your nuclear reactor to end the program.  This is not a declaration of war, but we do not trust Wahhabists with nuclear weapons and we certainly do not believe your program is peaceful, as you are wahhabi extremists. We this announce after these strikes that any attempts to ressume the program will result in more airstrikes.
 * (our "cold war")The Whabbi ideas are spread across Arabia, along with exporting it to Libya with the idea of an Arab Islamic Unity. We send the US the idea of Oil trading as we become an Oil powerhouse. Anti-Baathist ideas are spread across Saudi Arabia giving the idea of Islamist and the idea of Islamic Unity these ideas are sent to the UAE,Oman,the group works to improve the relationship with people by opening mosques and working on improving Poor areas and the slowly work on winning hearts and mind, most of the young followers are sent to colleges and university to rival other factions in the university. We send arms to Anti-Republic factions in N. Yemen and Jordan,and send 500 Saudi advisors under the cover of foreign fighters. Radio Al Hawk is made and is spread into the Arab World spreading Islamist ideas.  the Ghurban Al Sudan sets up at there own min state begin called the Emirate of Darfur and begin to dig in. The army begins to look for arms dealers to buy weaponry and begin to work on making a tunnel system to hide from UAR planes and to also ambush Sudanese troops. In Libya Ikhwan goes underground bombing military targets in cities and have non fighters members protest in the streets. as fighters flee into the desert rounding up with Dafurian fighters, with Libya on the brink on joining the UAR the group begin to set up rebel bases across the Libyan desert and begin to work on gaining support for the areas as the group begin to bomb troops coming into the desert, military troops that we apart of the group begin to sell weaponry to the Ikhwan. 


 * (South Yemen War )30,000 are sent in to counter any communist move in and push out Unionist factions out of Yemen,while the Ikhwan is sent to unite Anti-Unionist faction. Saudi planes use Chaff to counter MANPAD. As UAR troops and Unionist hold their ground to fight the Ikhwan we began "Operation Ramadan" as we begin a full-scale attack onto the Ziyadi having Saudi air cover and having troops target UAR heavy weaponry and pushing into the region, as the Ikhwan bomb roads and means to backup troops. The Saudi Navy is order to not fire unless fired upon. The Army begin to dig in as out air force is left out to do huge scale bombing run, but we use the Turkish airforce to bomb Unionist and UAR troops as all type of weaponry is used to hold land. More Missiles are sent to bomb Port Aden to hold troops from coming (but that won't last forever)The Turkish troops are sent to the front to back up Saudi and Ikhwani fighters as the area begin an operation called "House of Cards" as the army begins to march into hostile areas saying there goal is Aden  
 * ​What missile systems does Saudi Arabia have? the Royal Saudi Missile System was founded in 1986 OTL -Nate
 * I began a missile program early in the game -Bozi
 * United Arab Republic: President Nasser attempts to arrange a meeting with Gaddafi in person, and suggest the offer of incorporating Libya fully into the UAR. At the same time, Nasser requests Gaddafi utilize some of the military of Libya to help put down the insurgents in Sudan. In Sudan itself, a single bomber squadran and an infantry division is deployed in a military operation to blockade the Darfur region and starve the Ghurban Al-Sudan out. More economic support is given to the new government of Sudan, as well as the local government in the Darfur region, as the vast majority of the people and administration are found to be pro-nationalist. The minority Ghurban Al Sudan are simply criminals in the nation and are hunted down as such. The main fighter power and artillary remain in Yemen, where the now heavily-reduced Saudi airforce will be bombarded by superior airforce of the UAR. The navy remains in control of the port of Aden in a blockade, not firing on the Saudi navy unless fired against. As all non-nationalist support has been crushed in Yemen, the new Yemen government is de-jure annexed as a constituent state under the UAR. De-facto, however, the Saudi invasion of the north-central desert and bombardment of Aden continues to put struggle in the region. The ministry of state calls to Saudi Arabia to put an end to this senseless squander of lives and let the people of South Yemen decide their own destiny, as clearly they reject the idea of antiquated monarchy. They also condemn the pointless bombing of Aden, killing innocent lives as well as military, as barbaric actions by the Saudi Government, and shows the medieval tendancies of the Arab Monarchy. These kind of statements are broadcasted across the Arab world by the large media centers of Cairo. A movie begins to be produced in Cairo, staring Nadia Lutfi, Shadia, and Mahmoud El-Meliguy, titled Hundred Mile March, heavily used as propaganda to show the monarchies of the Arab world as villains stealing the rights of the Arab people. The tourist industry is more heavily pushed to compensate for increased military spending, while more domestic products are exported than before as well.
 * Libyan Arab Republic Dip: Gaddafi eagerly accepts Nasses Invitation for a formal meeting and agrees to the incorporation of Libya as a constituent state of the UAR.
 * what is up with this "as well as the local government in the Darfur region, as the vast majority of the people and administration are found to be pro-nationalist.", I've been invested in Sudan for a long time I doubt people would be Pro- Ba'ath without some people having oppsing views -Bozi
 * Just saying you influence things a few years doesn't make it actually happen. The fact is the region has no reason to suddenly change from nationalism to Muslim extremism, asside from the individual agents stationed there. -Nate
 * Saudi Dip: With the "news" report of the matter of S. Yemen and the Saudi so-called war crimes Radio Al Hawk is spread across the muslim world, calling the UAR communist that are godless and plot to destroy True Men of the Middle East, as daily news report across the muslim world call the attack on Dafur a "starve or join" tactic that anger people across the Muslim world . We also begin to push the idea that the UAR aids communist and begin to tell people what happen to Turkic people in the USSR, that cause fear among the people. We demand for the UAR to not back a non democratically elected government in Sudan and their calling of the rebels criminals. We also begin to call for support to protest the movie across the UAR from all Islamist Factions (as I've been invested in factions).
 * South Africa: We respond to these protests by releasing a press conference with President Bathalazar Vorster saying, "We do not know why they are protesting, do these fools not know Afrikaans is an official language." We will detonate Project Shaka Zulu next turn. We continue the war in our side of the continent. We see the middle east tearing itself apart. With this we begin to start oil drilling operations all across the country.
 * DDR:We accept reunification with west germany with the eastern border the oder neise line and with full democracy if the union of soviet socialist republics and the united states of america agrees we also send all except 100 borders troops to their camps and they will just look after the police so that they won't react inrationaly to the reunification
 * USSR dip: We support Germany's reunification as a neutral state.
 * United States dip (Copenhagen Longcut Wintergreen, to be exact): The United States is likewise supportive of both Germanies reuniting as a democratic neutral state.
 * DDR:We accept the border with denmark we now ask the great powers to accept the Treaty off Weimar Which states both germanies will reunify under control off the german democratic republic .It will leave the Warsaw Pact and become neutral. There will be elections every six years the allowed parties will be SED KPD SPD and the CDU. This will later after the goverment get more stable be changed to allow more political parties. The bunderwehr and the Nationale Volks Armee will become one army and will change logo and over time will get new uniforms the new name off the army will be Das Armee der Weimar Republik or in english the army off the Weimar Republic. The grenztruppen will become part off the army but as a border control force. We will also Keep the ban on the SRD. The last point off the treaty will also make the new country be named Das Weimar Republic or in English the Weimar Republic.
 * USSR dip: We agree
 * US Dip: The United States likewise ascents to the Treaty terms, and hope such a move brings about greater peace and prosperity to Europe.
 * Libyan Arab Republic: Gaddafi travels to Cairo in order to meet President Nasser for a formal meeting. Gaddafi also agrees to Nassere proposal to fully incorporate Libya into the UAR. Army Regiments are sent to areas Ikwhan-occupied areas, attackimg Ikwhan Bases in Desert Areas. Troops and aid are sent across the Libyan-Sudanese Border in order to support Gafar Nimerys Forces. The Libyan National Petroluemn Company is merged into the National Arab Petroleum and Natural Gas Service, completely nationalized and owned by the Libyan Socialist Union. The Libyan National Natural Gas Coporation is disbanded and it's assets frozen. Gaddafi begins to reform the Goverment Structure into a form of Arab Socialism and Arab-Nationlism. Arab Leaders are once again allowed into the country. Intensive reforms are implaced in order to transition into a Consituent State of the United Arab Republic. Gaddafi calls on Nasser to send military armies into both Sudan and Libya to end the distracting nuisance of the Ikwhan. Diplomatic relations are established with the USSR, proposing an arms deal. The Libyan Arab Republic requests admission into the UAR.
 * USSR: We agree to host peace talks in Moscow between Vietnam's and the United States. We step up support to Mexican leftist guerrillas who we encourage to enter the drug production and trafficking business as we believe this will allow them to gain power in Mexico because they will have money and people while annoying the United States. The KGB helps establish one single group as the leader of this planned leftist insurgency with their leader Jose Goyo who operates out of Cuba while his subordinates receive training before returning to Mexico with supplies where they start setting up drug rings paying farmers good wages to grow drugs while also recruiting people to fight for them. Propaganda in the form of leaflets and radio broadcasts are supplied to encourage the young to side with the new revolutionary party of Mexico. In the USSR we give funding to OGAS to create a nation wide connected information system with a central terminal at Moscow and smaller terminals across the country initially primarily west of Siberia. Peace is accepted with China and food and vaccines are provided as promised. The USSR sets about integrating their new territories with Manchuria made an Oblast and Xianjaing made into East Turkmeistan a part of Soviet Central Asia. As famine continues in Siberia we continue to keep food prices high to keep consumption low while food is moved into Siberia. Nuclear warhead production is contuined with exisiting facilties as well as work on new submarines to launch them.
 * United States of America: With a preliminary agreement to bring the Indochina War to a close, all offensive operations are immediately ordered halted as a ceasefire takes hold throughout the battle zones. For the first time since 1939, there is peace in the region and it is a most welcome one by the United States. In light of the positive steps forward by the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, the US immediately begins a draw-down of troop strength throughout Laos and the recently reconquered Hainan, allowing the Vietnamese to reoccupy the territory while allowing the government of Laos to reassert its authority on its own territory. The roughly 250,000 troops are re-positioned into Cambodia and South Vietnam, where a point system similar to WWII is instituted to figure out who should get shipped home first. Over the next few months, 300,000 troops will be sent home. With the drop of combat intensity, the Draft is scaled back to its normal Pre-War levels, although press controls will remain in place for the moment (This is partly due to the lingering issues from China).
 * Domestically, development of what is coming to be known as "The Long Game" nuclear strategy is continued apace with particular focus on the military and its abilities to continue a strategic struggle in a post nuclear environment. Reduced operational costs in Indochina allow for expedited procurement of newer ICBMs, with particular focus on bringing the new Minutemen II missiles online with serial production of such as a goal. Strategic studies of the China War showed that accuracy and to some extent reliability were an issue for US missiles, in particular the remaining stockpile of liquid fueled ones. With the solid fuel "IIs",  the US has also incorporated a larger warhead and more accurate targeting systems aide its strategic rocket force. One of the lessons drawn from the China conflict was that the strategy of largely limiting the rocket portion of Nuclear Triad to counterforce targets (With some notable, critical exceptions on targets of importance such as Beijing) while the bombers took out countervalue targets was a largely resource efficient combo, as the rockets could strike enemy air defenses and means of nuclear attack within 30 minutes, increasing the chance of bombers making it through and reducing possible damage to the US. As well, more money is pumped into the prospective Boeing contract to produce new batches of B-52s, with the current USAF order of 600 new airframes expected to begin production by the end of 1971. As well, the currently existing B-52s receive modernization packages. Increased Chaff and ECM abilities are added, in light of the growing threat of SAMs while the tail gun is strengthened in its punch and by increased use of targeting computers to aid in accuracy. Development on the XMBT-815 continues, with the injection of funds allowing the US to move up expected proto-type date to sometime in 1975.
 * Domestically, the situation is eased when it becomes clear the Chinese have no hope of responding further while the Vietnam War appears at a close and voting rights are now a reality for Black Americans. It appears to many that things are finally on the upswing for the US after the last several years, and the national mood reflects such. Having vowed to "Make Anchorage and Honolulu Great Again", US rebuilding efforts in the two States led by FEMA continue apace, although the situation for the locals remain stressful given their current residence in temporary housing. Along the Mexican border as well, the current instability has driven a refugee crisis, with many Mexicans escaping the escalating violence in their nation. To this end, many a National Guard unit in the States find themselves along the border pulling security operations that many were intimately familiar with from their time in 'Nam. The fact they are doing so now in the US is disturbing to many, but for now the situation remains just a minor irritant. Domestically, President Rhodes begins to advocate for the adoption of a Negative Income Tax at the urging of economist Milton Friedman. On another bit of domestic policy expansion, the study on Ammonia as a fuel source is dropped due to a lack of favorable power outputs but the report on MSRs shows promises and is expected at the end of the year. On the corporate front, the Datapoint company elects to hold on introducing the Datapoint 2200 terminal until Intel finishes developments on their new microchip. In the meantime, the Xanadu project under Ted Nelson is given increased funding and focus, thanks to some interest from the Department of Defense.
 * On the previously mentioned topic of veterans of the war, a small scale movement begins to be noticed among returning troops that would be instantly recognized by career soldiers of the old German Reichswehr. Having spent years in the Jungles of Southeast Asia, intense bonds of comradeship have developed among the troops and this has been strengthen by the extreme hostility they faced returning home by the Peace movement's remnant. There is an intense feeling of alienation from society at large, with many attesting to ideas not to far different from those once advocated by Ernst Junger (Whose materials do gain a surge in popularity in the US at this time, largely as a result of the aforementioned), in that war is viewed as their transcendental experience and that they are more comfortable within a militaristic environment than they are in trying to deal with a civilian world that doesn't understand the issues they face. To this end, many veterans form what come to be informally called Warriors Clubs, which while primarily used as bonding times at such places as bars and such, come to be staging grounds for a developing ideology that advocates for increased militarization of the US and intense nationalism in the face of a changing world. In the words of several of the nascent intellectuals of this movement, their movement advocates for the mobilization of the US along militaristic lines in order to mobilize the full abilities of the public and private sector to achieve the American dream for all (And especially veterans) and to ensure the continued dominance of the US as a military power. The movement is virulently Anti-Communist as a result of their experiences, and there is some minor push for conflict with Cuba and intervention of Mexico to both eliminate the threats while "Extending American prosperity" (Annexation of said lands). Given the support of the USSR in ending the Communist Chinese threat, the movement does however so signs of being be pragmatic if it serves American interests to be so. On the whole, however, the movement remains small for now.

1970.5
''' The Saudis gain a working nuclear reactor which is attacked and damaged by the Turkish air force. (Warrior agreed to this) '''

how does Turkey know where my reactors are-bozi

They are very large, give of lots of energy and radiation- Person

as in being large here you so i could hide them looking at its size-bozi

Ok that isn't that small plus it gives off radiation as it has no shielding and needs people around it to build it. I mean Turkey would have intelligence about a program of this scale. If you do it in the desert it is easy to easy and if you do it in the city well people can see it being constructed. Person

''' Saudi Arabia besieges Aden as UAR troops are hauled up inside of the Port of Aden holding off Saudi attacks in despite of casualties from strikes. Much of the coastal regions are held by the Arab forces while the others by the Saudis. (Is that more sensible) '''

 Libya joins the UAR with Gaddafii remaining in power while fighting in the desert continues 

''' In Sudan the Dafur state is crushed turning it back to a low level insurgency. '''

''' Peace talks continue in Moscow about Vietnam. '''

''' Serious temperature drops occur in Asia due to the nuclear war. '''

''' Drug trafficking from Mexico increases led by the RPM who recruit a lot of new members. '''

''' East and West Germany unify under the terms proposed by East Germany. '''
 * Weimar:We hand back power to the former leaders off the DDR which now doens't exist annymore and we welcome all nations in the world to make new relationships with the west and the we also ask the non alliglined movement if we can join them and make it an actual block with an army. We also ask nations help us create our own space mession to set a person into space . We ask austria if they would like to join us as a new province: the province off Austria. We will also have elections in 2 years .Our motto is changed to "Deutschland Einig Vaterland" also know as the DEV. We also break down the wall and our Capital will stay berlin. All bundeslandes will stay but now under the name off provinces also all administrative divisions in te former ddr will become provinces with the exeption off east and west berlin which is the capital
 * Turkish Diplomacy: We request diplomatic relations begin.
 * United Arab Republic: In Yemen, the military mostly installs an occuption force over the western half of South Yemen, acting as de-facto control. Saleh becomes leader of the constituent state of South Yemen within the UAR more fully. A small task force of fighters, infantry, and tanks are sent into east Yemen, but the vast majority of troops holds the occupied territory. In Sudan, the UAR offers to retain Sudan's indepndence, but in light of possible future insugencies, offers to keep it in military and economic protection to ensure its unity and stability. In Libya, Gaddafi is made leader of the nation as a constiuent state undert he UAR. The Libyan army begins modernization to put it more on par with the miltiaries of the rest of the Middle East. The Hundred-Mile March is released to theaters in Egypt and Syria, and is immediately a best-selling hit in the Arab world. Arab nationalist propaganda is spread by radio and television to Algeria, in light of their new independence from France. In September, tragedy strikes when Gamal Abdel-Nasser passes away, and a new election is held. Anwar Sadat wins the election with 90% vote, to no one's surprise. In a speach, Sadat describes that he is going to continue the dream of Nasser in working towards uniting the Arab world, but he wil pull back on some of his more extreme policies toward Socialism and international aggression. Having secured all of South Yemen but the eastern deserts, the UAR asks Saudi Arabia to negotiate an end to the war, allowing the eastern half to remain independent if they choose by referendum, in exchange the Saudi will withdraw their troops from Yemen and Sudan. Industrial technological imporvement continues, and students are sent to Europe for foreign exchange missions. In response to the Saudi nulcear project, in spite of its lack of human resources, the UAR immediately begins working on its own nuclear program based in Aleppo to research nuclear power. The population stands at 65.7 million.
 * Saudi dip: we are willing for peace talks for S. Yemen.
 * Mod: Sudan asks Arab troops to pull out and remain it's independence although it consents to work closely with the UAR.
 * South Africa: WE DETONATE PORJECT: SHAKA ZULU IN SOUTHERN NAMIBIA. A mushroom cloud looms over the test sight as a Nagasaki sized explosion rattles the desert. We are the most powerful nation on the continent. We threaten any rebelling Bantustans destruction with this weapon. We begin to produce more bombs. We also continue to have success on the bush war in Rhodesia and the Portuguese colonies. We plan a great offensive to drive. (Mod Response): We demand Botswana to let South African troops and agents sweep through the country.
 * USSR: We keep providing support to Mexican leftist groups who we encourage to traffic drugs and arm themselves allowing them to gain control over the countrysides while in the towns they carry out a propaganda campaign and assassinations of low level soldiers, policemen and judges are carried out. The first of the new Ural class of ballistic missile submarines is created giving the Soviets an increased strike capacity. While work on updating our air forces with production of the MiG-23 starts. An increase in the production of consumer goods is attempted with increasing production of televisions and more variation being added to the Soviets supply of television programming while work on constructing OGAS across the country is started. As temperatures continue to remain low in Siberia we keep food prices high while many of the Siberians are evacuated and moved to the west of Russia to work in factories producing consumer goods.
 * Turkey: President Cevdet Sunay joins the national democrat party. M60 tanks, the best tanks in the Turkish Army, and being studied, and we begin to reverse engineer M60 tanks. In order to allow the situation in Yemen to calm and fear of Saudi retaliation for the strike on the power plant, we withdraw our forces from Yemen. The upgraded M60 tank is being produced as Kemal 1 tanks. The Kemal 1 has simplified electrons but stronger armor (it has primitive Counter Explosive armor). Many believe that Turkey is beginning to distance further away from it's Nato allies and favor non alignment. Kurdistan is made an Autonomous region governed by a Kurdish leader. This is done as a pro democracy move to prevent insurgency. However, power still remains in the hands of Ankara.  Nationalism is on the rise. There is a public outrage against Saudi Arabia, when it was found out that they funded a Turkish Ikhwan branch that threatened Turkeys secular nature. This causes widespread Saudi Flag burning in Ankara and Istanbul, and many push for war. However, an equal number want peace. Back to the arms industry, Turkey begins laying out plans to produce a fighter jet. F4 Phantom designs are studied, and the intent is to build a reverse engineered F4 Phantom fighter. Cevdet Sunay lays out Vision 2030, a plan to turn Turkey into a world superpower by 2030. The paper says the UAR and Saudi Arabia are the primary threats to the goal of Turkey. It also states that it must develop an indigenous arms industry and space program in order to survive. However, the space program plans have not materialized yet.
 * United States of America: The US continues talks in the Soviet Union with the North Vietnamese, and proposed peace pretty much along the lines requested by the North. The US will abandon Laos to become a puppet state of the North as well as accept their expansion into the former People's Republic of China in exchange for recognizing the South and cutting ties with the Viet Cong along with the same for the Pro-Western regime in Cambodia. The US will also provide $15 Billion in economic aid for five years in order to help rebuild the war damage and make it more profitable for the North to continue peace with the US and its Allies. The US also requests remaining Catholics and Anti-Communists, along with any POWs be released, as well as any Laotians who wish to escape the expected coming Communism.
 * Elsewhere in the World, the formation of a united neutral Germany requires the US to begin a withdrawal of its 250,000 force stationed there previously as part of the past US strategy of providing a conventional barrier to Communist expansion along the North German plain. With France also outside the NATO structure, NATO's position within Western Europe appears to be largely irrelevant and to that end, the United States requests expanded basing rights in Italy, Norway, and the United Kingdom to maintain the viability of the defense of those NATO nations. The expected force size for each new deployment is to be 60,000 with the grand total of 180,000 to remain in Europe. The remaining 70,000 are to be returned to the United States for stateside duties, largely along the Mexican border.
 * Domestically, the development of the new strategic theories continue apace, as does the development of the XBT-815 and coming re-start of the B-52 line along with continued purchasing of more ICBMs and NIKE missiles. In the far north, the early warning sites are brought back into use combined with SAC's more modern systems gives the US a superb early warning system. With the draft back to normal, civil rights and the US slowly disengaging itself around the World, it is hoped an era of peace will soon be upon the United States. Lower temperatures, higher cancer rates and reduced crop output due to the China conflict along with the stress of the Vietnam era had placed the American system under strain, but is now hoped these can be put behind them. To that end, focus shifts to some other areas in domestic policy.
 * Under the advisement of Charles Townes, NASA is to continue with a full fledged APOLLO Program while also completing the Skylab project advocated for by some. With secured funding, APOLLO missions are expected to continue at least into the 1980s with a hoped for semi-permanent base on the celestial body by 1985. Skylab, as the first space station, is hoped for by 1976. Elsewhere, feasibility study on Molten Salt Reactors comes back with positive results, advocating for them due to their incredible safety and ability to use a greater pool of nuclear resources (Including nuclear waste) as fuel sources. To this end, Alvin Weinberg is offered and accepts a seat on the Atomic Energy Commission to begin procuring designs and planning for the introduction of the design into both military and civilian uses. Meanwhile, the Datapoint corporation continues to wait for Intel's microchip with development on Xanadu under Ted Nelson continues.
 * Having it put on the back burner, President Rhodes announces the Family Assistance Plan as his domestic policy goal for the year and so begins to martial support for it on capital hill. The FAP, as it is known, combines most welfare programs that are designed to aid the family along with increased funding in order to provide a guaranteed annual income (GAI), designed to help offset costs of living for them as to ensure a decent life. It proves a tough fight for the President, but by the end of the year the legislation is passed. He also, as a compromise, begins means testing of all social services in order to appease conservatives.
 * Tamil Tigers: we start Bombing Ceylon bases and other goverment buliding in hopes for a Tamil Ceylon, with help form gangs, we buy Madsen machine guns,Madsen M-50s, M72 LAWs  FIM-43 Redeyes, BM-21 "Grads 152 mm,gun-howitzer M1955s,9K35 Strela-10s and 10 Soko J-21 Jastreb.

Back again? I just pulled back the army to fortify the occupied territory. This is getting ridiculous ~Nate

Look it's a war I can't have both sides win. I don't know what either of you are doing or anything about South Yemen, I don't know what Bozi's doing or you. Bozi says you don't even hold all of the Zayidi region. Bozi has been attacking Aden for a while he takes it and he loses a lot of troops. You still hold all the rest of the coastal plains.

 * Tamil Tigers:  we ask the USSR and China For Pilot Training and 20 MIG 17s and 20 Shenyang J-6 (Reposned needed by both nations), we captured Nawa Madagama and Walapane, we also start making Armoured Fast attack boats.
 * USSR dip: We currently decline to support the fighters.
 * Mod China dip: Due to the bad situation in China we decline to support the fighters.
 * Hellenic Republic: Hellas leaves NATO. Hellas begins major construction works to improve the existing infrastructure system in the three largest cities of Athens, Thessaloniki and Patra, using the Mixed Groups Machinery Reconstruction and volunteering citizens as workers. Three huge golden sculptures depicting Pyrrhus of Epirus of the antiquity, pointing to South Italy, Peloponnese and Macedonia with their swords are constructed next to each other in the largest square in Ioannina. A Prime Ministal Office is opened in Thessaloniki, the second largest city in Greece often regarded as "Simproteuousa" meaning co-capital, which Prime Minister George Papadopoulos schedules to visit once a week. More hard-line commies are arrested and exiled to Makronisos "Long Island" as enemies of the state, who are also branded terrorists. However we loosen our repression of the Socialist and Leftish people to improve our popularity. However the government adopts a different approach on socialism to ensure higher approval ratings by its people. Some socialist measures are adopted along with the Labor Unions reopening but under direct state control. To ensure the support and hapiness of its people the government adopts Nationalist Propaganda tactics similar to Nazi Germany's, creating the Propaganda Ministry, with Prime Minister Papadopoulos appointing a very capable and loyal man as Minister of Propaganda. Prime Minister George Papadopoulos also compiles his ambitious plan to make Hellas self-sufficient on military equipment and armament, by developing an industry capable of doing that. Contacts are conducted with Greeks abroad that have access to the tech or have the speciality to develop military equipment and especially tanks. We start constructing 5 MiG-21 Generation 2 plants with Soviet help. The Fleet is deployed in the Aegean Sea and Northern Cyprus while 20.000 troops are deployed in Thrace in the Turkish border and began the construction of a defensive line using the river of Evros as a natural shield. Prime Minister Papadopoulos asks for a referendum to be conducted in Cyrpus for a union with Hellas. (Mod Response) The government conducts meeting with the veterans of the National Organisation of Cypriot Fighters to ensure their support to unite Cyprus with Greece. (Mod Response) We ask Turkey's to not intervene offering them to joint develop and exploit the gigantic Oil and Gas reserves in the Aegean and Cyprus as well as to handsomely reward and will also compensate every willing Turk in Hellas to resettle in Turkey. President Papadopoulos understands the graveness of the Radical Islam and the threat that it poses to his nation, thus he asks its strongest rivals, the UAR, for an alliance to secure the future of Hellas.
 * UAR dip: We accept alliance.
 * Hellenic Dip: The Hellenic Republic sends a platoon of his special forces to help the UAR against Saudi Arabia.
 * Turkish Dip: We agree.
 * The Hellenic-Turkish Oil & Gas corporation is founded with 50%-50% Hellenic and Turkish participation and with capital from both nations it begins exploring and developing the Oil Wells and Gas fields in the Aegean Sea for now.
 * Hellas demobilizes its troops in Western Thrace.
 * Further Turkish Dip: Seeing Saudi Arabia as a threat to our secular and nationalist way of life as well, we request that we join your alliance with the UAR.
 * Mod: The republic of Cyprus will only agree to a referendum on having a union with Greece if the Turkish agree to allow this referendum and recognise it so not to inflame tensions. The Cypriot fighters give their support to the Greek government.
 * Turkish Dip: We agree to referendum.
 * Hellenic Dip: George Papadopoulos, whom is a very ambitious men, seek to counter the threat posed by NATO and the Warsaw Pact by creating a Third Bloc, a Nationalistic one where Nationalist nations can work together for mutual benefit, against the 2 huge military alliances of NATO and the Warsaw Pact and he firmly believes that to survive in this chaotic world the only way is cooperation. So he invites the United Arabian Republic, Turkey, Spain, South Africa, Weimar Republic, Yugoslavia to be the founding members of this great organization and ushering a new era.
 * Turkey suggests to the hellenic republic that we invite the Weimar Republic (Germany) as it is non affiailited into our bloc.
 * Hellas agrees.
 * USSR dip: We offer to construct a MiG-21 Generation 2 plants in exchange for food and fossil fuels.
 * Hellenic Dip: We accept the USSR offer and offer the USSR an alliance.
 * USSR dip: We agree to an alliance.
 * Saudi Arabia:
 * (In nation)king Fasil OTL begins to modernize the nation, with banning Slavery and working on improving cities and allowing Women into the school system. Along with opening relationship with the UAR. The Saud Petroleum Company (SPC) continues drilling projects across established petroleum zones across the nation. We begin to work on a nuclear program for peaceful use looking for the means of making Urimunim or Platinum looking into the black market, we begin to work on a space program as scientist work to get a rocket in L.O.E. The King fear the aftermath of the war in China and says he heart is out for the people. secret The Saudis begin to work on a nuclear program making a nuclear reactor thing as the scientist are let lose. The King begins to work on other ways of getting money as he starts to work on opening factories to mass produce things from toys - furniture. Seeing the airstrike on our reactor, we begin to rebuild it and move it Riyadh where it goes under the cover of a huge storage compartment, as the place is surrounded by under spies. The idea of a Sultanate comes to mind in the youth mostly military men
 * (our "cold war")The Whabbi ideas are spread across Arabia, along with exporting it to Libya with the idea of an Arab Islamic Unity. We send the US the idea of Oil trading as we become an Oil powerhouse. Anti-Baathist ideas are spread across Saudi Arabia giving the idea of Islamist and the idea of Islamic Unity these ideas are sent to the UAE,Oman,the group works to improve the relationship with people by opening mosques and working on improving Poor areas and the slowly work on winning hearts and mind, most of the young followers are sent to colleges and university to rival other factions in the university.  Radio Al Hawk is made and is spread into the Arab World spreading Islamist ideas. The Ghurba group goes underground as hardcore members go into hiding in the desert while other go back to cities to gain support of people by opening schools and things like that, In Libya on the brink on joining the UAR the group begin to set up rebel bases across the Libyan desert and begin to work on gaining support for the areas as the group begin to bomb troops coming into the desert, hardcore members go into hiding in the desert while other go back to cities to gain support of people by opening schools and things like that,
 * (South Yemen War )30,000 are sent in to counter any communist move in and push out Unionist factions out of Yemen,while the Ikhwan is sent to unite Anti-Unionist faction. Saudi planes use Chaff to counter MANPAD.  The Saudi Navy is order to not fire unless fired upon. The Army begin to dig in as out air force is left out to do huge scale bombing run, but we use the Turkish airforce to bomb Unionist and UAR troops as all type of weaponry is used to hold land. More Missiles are sent to bomb Port Aden to hold troops from coming (but that won't last forever)The Turkish troops are sent to the front to back up Saudi and Ikhwani fighters as the area begin an operation called "House of Cards" as the army begins to march into hostile areas saying there goal is Aden. With the capture of Aden the army halts and begin to dig in as 10,000 more troops are sent into S.Yemen. A army of 20,000 Saudi and 20,000 Turkish troops are sent to attack other areas controlled by the UAR and Unionist.
 * I withdrew from Yemen. - Warrior
 * ​UAR: We ask ceasefire while we negotiate peace
 * Saudi: we accept the cease fire deal
 * Yugoslavia: We continue to promote a single union of one salvic race. Factories are still poping up around urban areas. Rural populations continue to migrate as farms become more mechianized.
 * Hellenic Dip: We ask Yugoslavia for jointly beneficial trade agreements.
 * UAR dip: we ask to export natural resources to you
 * Hellenic Dip: We accept and offer to export you Oil and Gas from the Aegean and the Mediterranean Sea at prime prices, as soon as our Oil Wells and Gas Fields finish construction. Also we offer to export you fruits, vegetables and fish.
 * Yugoslavia dip: We accept
 * Hellenic Dip: We invite Yugoslavia to become a founding member of the Nationalist Military Alliance.(Name will be decided by voting)
 * United Arab Republic:  The military continues to work to secure the occupied territory in Southwest Yemen. Capitalizing on the sparse population of Saudi Arabia, being unable to support a long-term war, Sadat begins establishing a long-term strategy for the occupation of the region, and continued bombardment of fortified Saudi positions, especially in Aden. This strategy relies on recruitment and partial draft of military from across the UAR, including the new territories in Sudan and Libya. The  Amman Accords  are offered as official peace agreement by the ministry of state. Algeria is offered to be a constinuent state of the Republic, or alternatively as a strong ally. Sadat sees a flaw in the Arab Republic as an over-emphasis on a one-party system. To that end, he organizes an opposition in a bi-party system known as the National Democratic Party (NDP). The miltiaries of Libya and Sudan are organized and modernized to the point they could be on par with the rest of the Republic, so as to properly battle back the new insurgencies. With industry continuing to grow, cities in Egypt and Syria resemble more western cities than ever before. With the new alliance from Greece, the UAR expands its export trade into the Mediterranean. The nulcear program in Aleppo continues to make good progress.


 * Saudi dip: we call for a cease fire with the UAR, as peace talks happen
 * Hellenic Dip: We offer the United Arab Republic to joint develop and exploit the gigantic Oil and Gas reserves in the Mediterranean Sea, as that will also enable us to create economic ties and improve relations, except from the obvious economic benefits.
 * UAR dip: We agree to this offer of explotation.
 * The Hellenic-Arabian Oil & Gas corporation is founded with 50%-50% Hellenic and Arabian participation and with capital from both nations it begins exploring and developing the Oil Wells and Gas fields in the Mediterranean Sea.
 * Hellenic Dip: We invite the United Arab Republic to become a founding member of the Nationalist Military Alliance.(Name will be decided by voting)
 * Turkey Fully Supports the peace treaty and offers to mediate it.
 * Hellas also fully supports the peace treaty and offers to co-mediate it.


 *   Turkey:  More Kemal 1 tanks are built. The F4 Phantom design continues to be studied for future reverse engineering.  In a shocking turn of events, Turkey announces it's departure from NATO.  The reason of that is because it wants more independence from the west. (SECRET): WE OFFER SOVIETS TOP NATO SECRETS IN RETURN FOR A MIG FACTORY TO BE BUILT IN TURKEY.


 * USSR: We agree to help the Turkish build a functioning MiG-21 Generation 2 plant in exchange for NATO secrets of some form.
 * Turkey: We agree. We send you many classified documents exposing thousands of western spies. We also send you documents showing you hidden Nato positions. In a sign of goodwill, we send you an F4 Phantom of evaluation as it contains the latest US radar tech.
 * Hellenic Dip: We also ask the USSR to help us build a functioning MiG-21 Generation 2 plant in exchange for fruits, vegetables, fish, Oil and Gas from the Aegean and the Mediterranean Sea, as soon as our Oil Wells and Gas Fields finish construction.
 * Hellenic Dip: We invite Turkey to become a founding member of the Nationalist Military Alliance.(Name will be decided by voting)
 * Turkish dip: We agree.
 * Weimar:We ask Yugoslavia and and all other NonAligned movement member if i can join it and talk about reforms off it
 * Turkish Dip: We have just left Nato, so we are interested in an alliance of some sort.
 * Hellenic Dip: We invite the Weimar Republic to become a founding member of the Nationalist Military Alliance.(Name will be decided by voting)
 * Weimar dip: We accept and i would ask if you want to buy some DDR tanks
 * Hellenic Dip: We agree to purchase 100 German DDR tanks.
 * Turkish Dip: We would like to purchase 50 Leopard 1 tanks as we are researching technology to build new tanks.
 * Weimar:We accept the deal with turkey if we get a base near adrianopel and adana we also wil allow greece to get 50 leopard 1's if we get a base on chania crete
 * USSR: We agree to host peace talks in Moscow between Vietnam's and the United States. We step up support to Mexican leftist guerrillas who we encourage to enter the drug production and trafficking business as we believe this will allow them to gain power in Mexico because they will have money and people while annoying the United States. The KGB helps establish one single group as the leader of this planned leftist insurgency with their leader Jose Goyo who operates out of Cuba while his subordinates receive training before returning to Mexico with supplies where they start setting up drug rings paying farmers good wages to grow drugs while also recruiting people to fight for them. Propaganda in the form of leaflets and radio broadcasts are supplied to encourage the young to side with the new revolutionary party of Mexico. In the USSR we give funding to OGAS to create a nation wide connected information system with a central terminal at Moscow and smaller terminals across the country initially primarily west of Siberia. The USSR sets about integrating their new territories with Manchuria made an Oblast and Xianjaing made into East Turkmeistan a part of Soviet Central Asia. As famine continues in Siberia we continue to keep food prices high to keep consumption low while food is moved into Siberia. Nuclear warhead production is continued with existing facilities as well as work on new submarines to launch them. We set to work building up factories in Greece and Turkey. We continue producing televisions in larger numbers which many in the cities can access.
 * United States Diplomacy: The US proposes an agricultural deal to the Soviet Union, of providing grain shipments are favorable rates since much of the damage to Siberian farming is an indirect result of the Sino-American war.
 * USSR dip: We thank the US for this fair deal.
 * United States of America: The United States continues its global adjustments in light of the near collapse of the NATO alliance and the end of the Vietnam War. Given the ongoing chaos in Mexico, however, the US reinforces the Southern border with several formations of troops in order to prevent the spread of violence as well as to contain and process the flow of refugees pouring in from the violence torn nation. The Department of Defense as such begins to formulate strategic planning in case an intervention is required. To this end, several additional divisions are deployed along the Southern border but held in reserve, ready to be activated and used in a general offensive into Mexico.
 * Domestically, President Rhodes elects to not run for another term and instead it is generally agreed within the GOP that former Vice President Richard Nixon will be the party nominee while it is expected Robert F. Kennedy will be the Democratic nominee. Development of the XMBT-815 continues, as does the efforts of Boeing to restart B-52 production which is expected to occur soon. In the civilian world, the same goes for Xanadu, the intel 8018/8080 microchip, and the efforts of the AEC to bring about Molten Salt Reactors. The strategic refocusing of the US military and society at large in the face of increased nuclear threats also continues. The UHC passed by President Johnson in 1965 is reformed to use a voucher system, making it more efficient, cost-effective, and reduces the bureaucracy in Washington.

''' Greece, Germany and Turkey all get closer together working to secure arms and deals. While Cyprus votes to accede to Greece this starts a race war with some Turkish Cypriots choosing to leave while others fighting back and forming a guerrilla force. Many in Turkey feel they should not allow their fellow Turks to go unsupported. '''

 Peace negotiations occur over South Yemen occur as part of the Amman Accords (Rise of the Arabs Map Game) 

''' North Vietnam signs the treaty of Moscow recognising South Vietnam while Laos and expansion into China being allowed as well as acceptance of US aid packages which are needed with the crippling famine. With North Vietnam pulling out and the US contuing to support South Vietnam the insurgency continues at a low level but many give up as without US food they are in trouble. '''

''' Fighting in Sudan and Libya continues albeit at a low level. '''

''' The Tamil Tigers go on the offensive making ground. '''

''' Drug trafficking into the US from Mexico increases while violence within Mexico increases as the guerrilla groups are underground making it hard for the government to target these groups in Dirty war while violence is carried out by the main group with murders and bombings while violence in the rurals between drugs gangs and government is sporadic. '''

''' Qatar and Bahrain become independent of the UK. '''

'''OOC: In the previous turn, Turkey claimed to be reverse engineering F-4 Phantoms and to have delivered advanced US radar tech to the Soviets in secret. This is impossible to have occurred, as the US did not export F-4s to Turkey until ''August of 1974 IOTL. ''Given I, as the US player never did authorize exports period (Nevermind earlier), that should be taken into account. As a side note, I'm highly skeptical of how Turkey, which has less industry as well as scientific knowledge of the combined might of France and West Germany, is somehow seeking to produce indigenous Leopard Is in the space of a year when it took the aforementioned European nations nearly a decade together to begin production. Further, the Soviet Union IOTL had only conducted basic research into ERA in the late 1960s, with the first test in 1969. It was not deployed in regular unit usage by the Soviets until 1985. The fact Turkey/Greece somehow managed to get fully working copies in 1971 is rather unlikely, to put it mildly. - GBUSA'''
 * Hellenic Republic: George Papadopoulos adresses the nation proclaiming the Union of Cyprus with Greece. With Cyprus voting to join Greece, they become a province of Hellas. People all over Hellas rejoice at the union between Hellas and Cyprus, military parades take place in Athens, Thessaloniki, Patra, Nicosia, Heraklion, Larissa, Limassol, Volos, Rhodes, Ioannina, Chania, Chalcis, Ammohostos and many other cities and villages all over the nation, with the vast majority of our people cheering in the streets to celebrate the union. George Papadopoulos popularity skyrockets, along with the junta's popularity, although to a lesser point. George Papadopoulos attempts to legitimize the regime by beginning a gradual democratization starting to have the desired results, Spyros Markezinis accepts his invite and becomes the President of Hellas. He also invites politicians from the old political establishment from the far-right and right-wing political spectrum to found a new party with a considerable number of them accepting. The National Political Union party is founded, with George Papadopoulos becoming its president and Spyros Markezinis its Vice President. Elections happen where George Papadopoulos wins with 69% of the votes and 225 seats in the parliament, campaigning for a war against Albania to liberate Northern Epirus, with the motto Freedom for Epirus. Three huge golden sculptures depicting Alexander the Great of the antiquity, pointing to Egypt, Thrace and Persia with their swords are constructed next to each other in Alexander the Great square in Thessaloniki. The Hellenic-Turkish Oil & Gas Corporation finishes developing the Oil Wells and Gas fields in the Aegean Sea and starts exploring and developing the Oil Wells and Gas fields in the Mediterranean Sea inbetween Cyprus and Turkey. The Hellenic-Arabian Oil & Gas Corporation finishes developing the Oil Wells and Gas fields in the Mediterranean Sea north of Cyprus inbetween Crete, Egypt and Lybia and starts exploring and developing the Oil Wells and Gas fields in the Mediterranean Sea inbetween Cyprus and Egypt. With revenue coming in from our Oil & Gas ventures we found the Hellenic Oil & Gas Corporation that starts exploring and developing the Oil Wells and Gas Fields in the Ionian Sea and the Gulf of Patras. We finish construction of 5 MiG-21 Generation 2 plants with Soviet help. The 5 new MiG-21 Generation 2 plants has begun producing Mig 21 fighters on a massive scale. The Mig 21 fighters are being produced under the name "Pyrrhus F88s". AMX-30s main battle tank and AMX-30Ds are reverse engineered to be produced locally. We continue to handsomely reward and compensate every willing Turk in Hellas to resettle in Turkey. Turkish Cypriots are but a small minority so we increase security and rout out the insurgent bases, while troops also are deployed to Western Thrace to pacify any possible insurgencies. George Papadopoulos calls the Turkish Cypriots and end the fighting and stop their cowardice murders as they are nothing but a scarce minority compared to the total population of the island. Otherwise the Greek army shall respond with greater force. Some Civil rights are offered in return for an end to the insurgency. Over 120.000 Turks left Greece for Turkey by now, after being rewarded and compensated. Approximately 100.000 Greek troops are secretly deployed at the border with Albania, along with 1000 tanks, 250 aircrafts and half the Greek Navy. George Papadopoulos adressing the nation from Nicosia, spreads a message of hope to every Greek, about how much we have achived together united and announces the initiation of the operation codenamed Epirotan Fury, as Greek troops cross the Greco-Albanian borders and war is declared to isolated Albania, for the liberation of the North Epirus. We ask Israel to sell us an IMI 120 mm gun blueprints and the right to produce them in exhcange for Oil & Gas. (Mod Response) We also ask the US to sell us a Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-110 engine blueprints and the right to produce them in exchange for Oil & Gas. We ask the Weimar Republic to sell us a Leopard 1 tank blueprint and the right to produce them in exchange for Oil & Gas. President Papadopoulos reinvites Spain, South Africa and Yugoslavia to be the founding members of the Nationalist Alliance to usher a new era as cooperation is required between Nationalist nations in order to survive and prosper in this chaotic world, with Turkey and the Weimar Republic having already joined.
 * Tamil Tigers: With the decline of Help by both the USSR and China, we sell our J-21 Jastrebs to the indoasian Miltray for 20 MIG 17s,20 Shenyang J-6, Polit trianeing and 5,000 H&K G3s whinch will be use next month, we ask yugoslavia to trade 10 M-84s tanks,500 Zastava M76s and 1,500  Zastava M72s in excange for Deeds 2 big Oil fields and a 3% claim in all oil comeing out of ceylon (reponsed needed), for couple weeks now we have been embroiled in the battle of Kandy, while take battle was rage we captured Jaffna and Hambantota, by this rate we will capture colombo in 2 years, we founded the Company Tamil Oil and Gas which will beat The Hellenic-Arabian/Hellenic-Turkish/Hellenic Oil & Gas Corporation by 34 Billion dollars.
 * Hellenic Dip: We secretly offer the Tamil Tigers 100 German Panzer IV tanks, 50 aircrafts as well as funds to help them win their war in exchange for a base in Ceylon.
 * Tiger dip: we accpet
 * Turkey: The new Leopard 1 tanks are examined, 25 are put into field service, while the other 25 are to be examined for reverse engineering. The plan is by next year to produce the new tank as the "Attila I" tank. There is also a plan to use all tank technology we have learned combined an develop an indigenous Turkish MBT, "Osman I". The new mig factory has begun producing Mig 21 fighters on a massive scale. F4 Phantoms continue to be studied for future reverse engineering. The Mig 21 fighters are being produced under the name "Suliman F33s". The coastline is heavily fortified to fight invasion. The National Democrat Party wins popularity. Industrialization is happening, on a massive scale.
 * Hellenic Dip: We welcome Turkey into the Nationalist Military Alliance as a founding member. We ask for the blueprints of Leopard 1 tank and the Turkish MBT tank and the blueprints of the ERA armor in exchange for the blueprints of Cannon-class destroyer escort USS Garfield Thomas (DE-193).
 * United Arab Republic:  President Sadat continues to set up the biparty system between the leftist Arab Socialist Union and the centrist National Democratic Party. The national unity of the Republic is re-enforced with radio and television propoganda, creating a sense of nationalism in the republic from Libya and Sudan to Iraq and Syria. The discontiguous states of North and South Yemen are brought up to have closer economic and political ties to the core. Military occupation of South Yemen continues, as the ministry of state works to negotiate a truce with Saudi Arabia.  The UAR joins the Naitonalist Alliance and takes a leading role to establish its organization. In a speech from Cairo, Sadat describes how the nationalist ideal was first exemplified by Nasser in his revolution.  The modern militaries of Libya and Sudan work to put down insurgents as criminals to the federal government. President Sadat passes economic reforms to steer away from the socialism of Nasser, and create a more direct capitalist economy. The nuclear program continues, hoping to create a stable nuclear reactor in 18 months. Improved missle systems and defense rockets also start to be developed.


 * Hellenic Dip: We welcome the United Arab Republic into the Nationalist Military Alliance as a founding member.
