Totally surprised, I accept the offer to bring the Verionian Empire under the care of Batavia.
Re: [Ver][bat]avisering
I'm not so sure on this. The Verionian Empire only claimed this territory two weeks ago and now it should go to Batavia? The Batavians were just as surprised as I was it seems. In the mean time the Verionian Empire has not become culturally important enough that its territory deserves to be saved, it is a very short-lived project. I would be much more comfortable with returning this land to the green. I also do not understand Batavia's interest in the territory, apart from the idea that it would give them more pixels than they have now. There are other areas where expansion would be much more meaningful for them, Gustaaf has gained a small foothold on Cibola and seems to be wanting to expand there to restore Batavian control over what used to be South Batavia. I hope this is not just claimed so he can exchange it for pixels there? All in all I do not see the merit of this vast swab of so far, underdeveloped land being given away to anyone. We have given it to Jack so he can develop it as the Verionian Empire, he has not done so for a very long time.
NAO.
Let me stress however that I do think the Verionian Empire has shown great promise in the few weeks it has been active, and that I would applaud it if Jack were to continue that work. Voting against this claim by the Batavians does not mean the Verionian Empire is unclaimed at all, rather that the status quo is maintained. Jack has plenty of time to return from his ragequit and return to his fascinating nation.

To quote the Craitgod:
I stood by it then and I do now - this is way too much for Batavia to be adding on, given everything it's recently gained. I might be more sympathetic to a much smaller claim but this one's a NAY.Craitman wrote:there is a lot of orange around now, so further expansion might not pass so easily

Re: [Ver][bat]avisering
I'd not mind Chryste going to Batavia as that is reasonable and understandable. But the remainder is a considerable amount of land to be handed as a freebie, so I can't approve. NAY...
