Pelasgia
Established Nation
Propontis, Pelasgia
In the last few days, Propontis was practically teeming with motorcades, as officials moved around for the occasion of the 104th National Congress of the Socialist Workers' Party. Officials came and went, but most of the traffic was concentrated around the People's Palace, the majestic parliamentary building of the Popular Assembly, which hosted the National Congress. Certainly, nobody expected an official motorcade to head precisely in the opposite direction--toward Galatopyrgos International and Business District, where all the foreign legations were located since medieval times. Doubly so for the motorcade of a Minister of the People's Government. And yet, this is precisely what happened.
Surrounded by police vehicles, a series of black luxury automobiles made their way down Gasmoulon Avenue, the main street cutting through the small peninsula that constituted the district from its northernmost tip down to the old Radilan tower to which it owed its name. The motorcade stopped outside the Embassy of the the Republic of @Nieveland, where a small host of journalists conveniently awaited. It was there that, following a small series of official pleasantries for the public's eyes, the Foreign Ministers of the two socialist countries would meet.
"Comrade Minister," said Anaxandros Koligos, the Pelasgian Foreign Minister, to his Nievish counterpart. "I hope you will excuse the delay. Averting a war between Tarusa and the Germanics took a near superhuman effort over the last few days." He pointed to an aged bottle of wine, dated from the late 18th century, which was alleged to have belonged to the first Nievish Apostolic Nuncio to Propontis. "I hope that you will accept this gift on behalf of the Pelasgian Nation as a show of goodwill, and as proof of our honest desire for friendship between our peoples."
