Good morning,

As a new sun rises over the horizon it casts it’s light on our world. It also shows its rays over a new seed, that seed is the Chinese Empire. I have decided today to build an Empire on the foundation of peace and prosperity that can be so easily lost in Piratecraft. It is my dearest wish not to start wars or raid those around me, no, I wish to create an Empire that will not only stand the test of time but will also do it in a manner that is respectful; and without thirsting for needless bloodshed. The Chinese Empire will seek to create allies, not enemies as it progresses but it will defend itself against invaders. Do not mistake our peaceful wish for weakness, if you are the first to cast the stone we will move to defend ourselves and our land.

With this in mind it will be very hard to do any of this on our own, which is why I am asking for alliances with the BE and any other Crew or Empire that is willing to help our cause. If you are wondering why the BE was the only empire to be explicitly named, it is because of the fact that the British hold the title of the longest lasting Empire in existence so an acceptance of an alliance with the Chinese would be greatly appreciated. Any other Empires or Crew that would be willing to band with us would be welcomed to do so.

The Chinese Empire seeks strength and prosperity through peace and not war. We will look forward to our dealings with other nations in the future and to growing as an Empire with you. Welcome to the Orient.
