[X] Plan Take it Slow
-[x] propose a cultural exchange with Fornice. Have agents get an idea of the general disposition of the population, how their government works, and what general political groups are present.
-[x] request to establish an Embassy to Hermosa on Equus, and invite Hermosa to establish an Embassy on Heimdall.
-[x] propose an exchange of the history of our nations, to achieve a better understanding of the culture and politics of our two nations. Leave out the past 20 years, this is to get an idea of our foundations, not air out the dirty laundry
-[x] work out a formal treaty recognizing the sovereignty of our territories, and a system for trade to cross our borders.
-[x] The sharing of star charts and other information on other major powers.
[X] Plan Take it Careful
-[x] propose a cultural exchange with Fornice. Have agents get an idea of the general disposition of the population, how their government works, and what general political groups are present.
--[x] Our arguement to Citizen Council would be like this: "We should align with a the stronger side on Fornice. If their dissident movement is widespread and strong, backing the current government would mean that it could be overthrown. The new government would then oppose us and our interests". We know that otherwise they would back the bureucractic government, and that can produce another S'Taxu Incident in future.
-[x] request to establish an Embassy to Hermosa on Equus, and invite Hermosa to establish an Embassy on Heimdall.
-[x] Mutual anchorage agreements in Heimdall and Equus, to allow crews to spend some time off their ships
-[x] propose an exchange of the history of our nations, to achieve a better understanding of the culture and politics of our two nations. Leave Nova Refugio out of history lessons.
-[x] work out a formal system for trade to cross our borders, without our traders going deeper than Equus and without their traders going deeper than Heimdall.
[X] OPLAN: Odd Woman Out
-[X] Write-in: Conduct a careful review of the Fornice situation before offering any aid to the rebel forces, but offer nothing to the dictatorship-remember the last time we trusted a "reasonable" ally with authoritarian means?
-[X] Write-in: approach Hermosa with just the offer of embassies in Heimdall and Equus-but only if and when their illegal penetration of our territory stops. We cannot risk another tragic accident like the Glaive incident. Additionally, continue to fortify our borders with them, and share as little information as possible about other polities like Garda-Villis and Hexos. We will not aid in these imperialist schemes against our neighbors.
