Ms. Kynes,
I'd call it at least noteworthy, before 2680 Lodamun had a 6 trillion dollar GDP, during that decade (2690-2700), GDP dropped to less than 2 trillion. I'd call that pretty big but it doesn't really matter anymore does it and we shouldn't focus all our time on this. That is just a subsidiary to the larger picture on how Lodamun got the large amount of money to pay for all these military structures, hiring private enterprise etc etc; did Lodamun get loans from another nation to pay for all that equipment? Are they in a position to pay them back? I do notice that your Defense Ministry is funded very highly and has a high consumption rate but I'm still wondering how Lodamun got that large amount of money very quickly to pay for those 8 aircraft carriers and 200 ships etc. I'm sure all those things included cost more than 125 billion dollars. If the Lodamun Finance Ministry can talk on this subject It would be greatly apperciated.
There is no international law justifying what you are doing; if you would just abide by the Law of the Sea treaty, we would not be having this discussion. Again, Hulstria understands Lodamun's right to protect themselves but as I said they don't have the right to infringe upon other nation's sovereignty who don't have any association with this Nova Terra conflict. I call upon the government of Lodamun to at least recognize these complaints and make adjustments to their quarantine in a way where friendly ships don't have to be unlawfully inspected on free waters. Lodamun should be respectable of other nations and they will receive the same. Lodamun is perfectly capable of defending their nation in 500k off their coast and they should be focusing on building up internal defenses, focusing more on Internal Affairs to defend their nation.
(ooc: As TWoodWill said, real world laws don't have any meaning in Terra).
