30th Royal AeroSpace Exhibit
-
Queen Anastasia and Prince Tommy were enjoying their Bachelorette party so much -Reitzmag was such an avant-garde location to hold it. 'They at least crushed their communist uprising' Anastasia had commented on the plane, 'and, hey,' she continued sipping a glass of pinot noir with a suggestive straw, 'wouldn't it be nice if our communists were also pansy doormats who would lay down their arms despite controlling significant territory like the Reitzmic ones.'
Prince Tommy was very happy to be sharing his bachelorette party and wedding with Mikaela. She was of course vapid, shallow, and egomaniacal, but so was he. This détente between Tommy and Mikaela was probably the biggest peace agreement in European history, ever. Kristian Nyuland didn't even help these warring factions overcome their difficulties. They did it all on their own.
Carlos had been a key factor in organising the joint wedding. He often sat in his large beige sillón in their Ibizan apartment, wearing his glasses and looking through wedding catalogues and websites on his tablet, calling Mikaela to make sure they agreed on drapes, tablecloths, the menu and many other minutiae that had to be agreed before the wedding. He loved organising. Tommy did not. Tommy was a Leo (sun) which meant that he was a lot more spontaneous than Carlos, and didn't see the need for all this planning. 'It'll be like in Mamma Mia 2 when all those random island people just helped them for no discernible reason organise a wedding in a short space of time' he said.
Anastasia had been enjoying the slower pace of life in Ibiza, watching Schitt's Creek on Inquistan netflix via a VPN. Spain's netflix didn't have it. All this netflix was good and all, but Anastasia was very excited for this trip to Reitzmag. She didn't mind planes, they go zoom zoom, shoot things sometimes, she guessed. Very fun.
The 'lads' - aka El Capitan and Carlos - were in Copala City at the Casa Romanov Bar and Grill which was newly built having their stag do. What better place for a stag do than Copala City? It was a beautiful city, well, what was built was beautiful. There was so many cranes, building works, and loud noises which made for an interesting ambient atmosphere.
Tommy, Mikaela and Anastasia arrived at Buckingham palace and Anastasia and Tommy helped themselves to a flute of champagne. Anastasia then got out a flask of an unknown spirit and poured it in her flute glass.
'Don't you think using champagne as a mixer is a bit below you, Anastasia. I mean that's the kind of thing I used to do back in 2015.'
'I think that I should be celebrating the last Romanov of our generation to get married, Tommy! We're all very grateful to God above that you even are getting married in the first place.' Anastasia laughed.
'How many of your husbands are still alive, Anastasia?'
Anastasia's face turned sour. 'That's besides the point, Thomas.'
'Just don't push it, okay' Tommy said. You know if you're looking up at planes after necking your 5th vodka-champagne you'll fall over on some Reitzmic government minister - do you know what they did to Sanders?!'
'That was one time, Tommy - I mean if we condemned everyone for doing one thing one time we'd have to condemn everyone.'
'How many people have you kidnapped?'
'Well actually Nicholas Kligenburg (God rest his soul) kidnapped me one time, it was a whole thing, but I have to say I kind of enjoyed it.'
'Who even is that?'
'My second husband!' Anastasia said with confidence. 'Or wait was he my third? Anyway I think we should let these people off, it's a new government or whatever. And they're being sanctioned by communist Icholasen so they're definitely on our side.' There was a somewhat long pause. Mikaela was at the bar and wasn't there to interject with something stupid. 'I'll tell you what, when I inevitably go to get tequila shots, I'll only get 5. Is that okay?'
Tommy frowned.

Mikaela returned to Tommy and Anastasia, who were having a playful sibling squabble. Mikaela carefully placed her margarita on the table and seated herself across from the Romanovs. She turned her head to attentively examine the surrounding environment of Buckingham Palace .
"Isn't this motel so quaint?" Mikaela gushed before letting out a content sigh. "Whenever I visit less fortunate countries like Copalastan, it always makes me more grateful and appreciative of things back home, you know?"
Mikaela took a sip from her margarita before continuing. "It has a demure charm that I can appreciate. Not everything has to be pretty. Remember that time we went to that lovely reception at that golf club in Salem, North Regina? That was the time where Tommy drove all three of us into the pond while driving the golf cart. Remember that? Tommy claimed a bug flew into his mouth while he was driving, but he was totally drunk out of his mind, and I don't even know why we let him get behind the wheel considering it's a known fact that gays cannot drive.
"Anyway, remember how we then had to nick some spare clothes out of the Fremetian ambassador's luggage? The clothes were at least two sizes too big for us and they weren't even designer clothes made by Sahrawi children, but we still rocked those outfits anyway, even if they weren't pretty. It's more about exuding attitude than it is about taste. This place reminds me of that. I love it."
The Archbishop took another sip from her drink. "This drink is delish. We should grab some more drinks, maybe do some shots, and then explore the amenities of this motel."
-
Juncker arrived at the Palace and saw Arbishop Mikaela, Tommy and Anastasia. He gave his suitcases to an employee of the palace and approached to them: "Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. Did you have a good flight?" He said while grabing a drink.
-
HM George I saw the 4 at the lobby and greeted them.
"Oh, good morning. You have arrived, great to see you here at Reitzmag. Anyways, your rooms are ready."
George then shook the guests' hands.
He signals the butlers and told them to bring the guest's luggage to their rooms.
Then, Queen Katherine saw them and shook their hands.
"Oh, great to see you. Welcome to Reitzmag! I hope you would enjoy staying for a while. As George said, your rooms are ready but I will be waiting for you at the dining room for some drink if you want."
Prince Edward, the heir to the throne, saw Juncker and spoke to him.
Hello sir, you look familiar. Aren't you the guy I saw on TV that sent a tank float in a rally?
-
Juncker shook hans with everyone with a smile and then looked at Prince Edward: "Yes I am! I'm also Atty. Winston worst nightmare". He laughed a bit "Just kidding, it's the Spanish Humour. Anyway, thank you for your recievement, It's a pleasure to be here. I'm staying here with Mikaela, Anastasia and Tommy for a bit." Juncker said.
-
The butlers took the luggage and the guests to their rooms.
Mikaela's room looked like this:
Queen Anastasia and Prince Tommy's room looked like this:
Jean Claude-Juncker's room looked like this:
Then Queen Katherine proceeded to the dining room and drank some tea with King George while waiting the guests.
-
The Mennrimian Arrive
Saulli:Finally we are here, that took a while,I wonder if their Majesties have already reached the palace
Assistant:Yes Sir, The Kings are already here
Saulli: Nice!! And Do you know how is this place called?
Assistant:No sir, but i can ask someone here.
Saulli:Don't worry it's okay, just lets watch what did Reitzmag prepared for Mennrimiak.
Lets go inside!!Security Guard: Yes sir, i will be behind you all the time.
-
At the palace dining room, the king and queen are enjoying some hot tea. Then a guard arrives inside bringing a news to the king.
"Your majesty, the Mennrmian Prime Minister has arrived" the guard said.
"Great, bring them here at the dining room" replied George.
Then the guard went back to notify the Mennrimian Prime Minister that they were allowed for entry already. After that, they enter the palace and proceed to the dining room.
"Oh, hello Mr. Niinistö! I am glad you are here at Reitzmag. Thank you for accepting our inivitation."
-
Juncker would then look at Mr. Niinistö. He thought that they were late, which was bad, but well, it was also truth that Mennrimiak was isolated from Europe, but it was a country that deserved to be visited. "Good afternoon Mr. Niinistö." Juncker said.
-
After being shown to her room, Mikaela's heart sank to the bottom of her stomach. Mikaela had 'roughed' it many times, like that time she slept at a 4.5 star hotel in Laayoune, the Sahrawi Union, or that time she ate at a fish and chips shop in Os Corelia. The Archbishop pouted as she studied her room and carefully examined her bed.
Mikaela pushed herself to preserve. "I can do anything," she said whispered aloud, unsure of herself, as she hopped on the bed. "Pull yourself together, Mikaela, you've been in far worse places."
In truth, Mikaela had been to far worse places. In her very brief stint as Commissioner of Internal Affairs, she visited Dromund Kaas. However, even her tent in Dromund Kaas was far better than this. After a few seconds of perseverance, Mikaela couldn't hold it together anymore. Mikaela suddenly jumped from her bed, grabbed her belongings, and sprinted as fast as she could in her heels until she reached Tommy and Anastasia's room. Without knocking, the Archbishop barged right in.
"Anastasia! Tommy! This motel is terrible! Have you seen the curtains? I can't-"
Mikaela abruptly stopped herself from complaining as she then studied the Romanov's room.
"Are you two... sharing a bed?" Mikaela huffed out in shock. "One bed, between you two?" she asked again. Before letting them answer, Mikaela ran up to the siblings and grabbed each of them by a hand.
"I'd rather stay at a Trympov Tower than this run-down place. I have never felt so poor in my life - not that there's anything wrong with being poor - I have a best friend that's poor. My friend, Jolie, her family used to be really big time sellers and retailers in the fur industry, but the environmentalists shut down her family's business. Anyway, she's poor now and I still kinda like her still, even though she's constantly going on and on and on about losing all her possessions and her property... doesn't she think of anyone else? Anyway, I am so not against being poor. I love poor people! Tommy, remember when you first got your bar tending job? Was I not supportive? I compliment you every time you work. I am soooooo pro-choice when it comes to being poor. But, like, do we have to stay here?"
Mikaela let go of the Romanov twins and hugged her belongings. "Can we just jet out to Copala City already? Let's skip whatever we're supposed to be doing here and get the fun started."
-
King George went upstairs and to the room of Queen Anastasia. There, he knocked at the door and said:
"Anastasia, we need to talk about something very important. It is a surprise, and I know you will very very very much like it. Meet me in the dining room."
Then George went downstairs and waited for Anastasia in the dining room.
-
Anastasia followed King George to the dining room and found, sure enough, King George there. Queen Anastasia didn't really know what to expect!
-
"Oh, it seems you are here. Well, I have decided to of course as a way to improve relations between Reitzmag and Free Icholasen to give an offer. And I am sure you will like it."
Then he calls a butler and tells him to show a map. Then he spreads it out on the table.
"Ok, so my offer is to give you this parcel of land as a loan until Free Icholasen gets back to its original place. This land has an area of 7,580 ha and is divided in the middle by the Buckingham River. The area will have a palace, some administrative buildings, commercial and residential areas, and some parts typically seen in a European city. And yes, this would be all constructed by Reitzmic workers. All Nicolezians will have free access to Reitzmag anytime without any visas. The area will be strictly and no-fly zone and will be a focus of security and defense by our armed forces to ensure the safety of the inhabitants."
"It would act as a temporary enclave with its own government. And since Reitzmag is in charge of its development, it would have its own representative/s in the Parliament."
"So, would you like this offer?"
Then he sips some tea then looks to Queen Katherine and smiles with her.
-
'That sounds well sick - I'm totally down for that, bruv! It'll be a lovely place to live. Thank you for your generous offer.'
-
"Very well, we have a deal. I'll just have someone write this as a proper treaty to be signed. But of course, Reitzmag only has some few requests."
"First of all, we ask if we can have access to Nicolezian-made weapons in a reasonable price. And we ask if we can have free trade and visa-free travel between our citizens. Finally, Reitzmag is offering a defensive alliance with Icholasen's Armed Forces."
"So, would you agree with those?"
Then he calls a butler.
"Tell Joe to codify a treaty between Reitzmag and Icholasen. Here are the details."
King George hands out the details of the agreement and then the butler goes to Joe Biden's office.
"Sire, His Majesty would like you to codify a treaty between Icholasen and Reitzmag. Here are the details that he provided."
"Thank you, I will hand this to him later" replies Joe.
Meanwhile at the airport, Simon Bridges greets all the remaining guests that arrived. Then he goes back to Buckingham Palace on a motorcade.
-
Anastasia said hi to Joe Biden, and considered his proposal. Unfortunately, Free Icholasen cannot deliver arms due to a few reasons, such as Fremetian sanctions where the Free Nicoleizian government is located. However, we can definitely agree to an alliance. Free Icholasen needs all the help it can get against the UNSR. Simon Coventry kidnapped one of their Ministers which is great and we commend him for his effort. We would also like to see about taking Copala City off of your hands, we feel that its unique heritage offers a good home for Icholasen, as its a place for refugees. These leases would both of course be temporary until Free Icholasen is brought back to its real lands.'
'Mr. Bridges.' Chairman Jirluchuz said through his iPhone XS Maxx. 'My spies have told me that the Free Nicoleizians won't give you arms - but we are happy to extend an arm of friendship, and receive an arm of cash, to give you guys some war materials. We are open to any proposals and we shall ship arms to you asap ! Thanks Simon.'
-
Simon had just arrived at Buckingham palace when his phone rang. He answered the call and was surprised to hear Chairman Jirluchuz speaking. He rushed to a place where no one can hear the conversation.
"Mr. Jirluchuz, so you want an arms deal with us. Tell me, how will this benefit Reitzmag?"
Inside the palace, George, Anastasia, Katherine, and Joe are discussing an agreement.
"Sure, we would agree on that!" said King George, then he smiles and looks at Katherine.
"Your Majesties, here is the final draft of the treaty" then Joe hands the final draft to King George and Queen Anastasia.
-
Jirluchuz responded; "Sweetie, if it doesn't benefit you that's fine we'll sell our arms to other states, but surely you want arms, my sweet.'
Anastasia gracefully signed the treaty, ANASTASIA ROMANOV-BISMARCK-KLIGENBERG -THE FIRST OF HER NAME, QUEEN OF THE UNITED DOMINIONS OF ICHOLASEN, HOLDER OF NUMEROUS INTERNATIONAL HONOURS AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS. 'That's also my BBM bio.' Anastasia said casually. 'I'm glad we could come to an agreement, we will look after the lands we are being leased, and as per the treaty, we will give them up when Icholasen is once again free.
-
George wrote his name on the treaty and signed it with his diamond-encrusted fountain pen.
George Arthur Alexander Louis Montreal, officially George I, by the Grace of God, of the Kingdom of Reitzmag and of his other realms and territories, King, Defender of the Faith
"Well of course, Reitzmag still would be in cooperation with Inquista regarding the developments. So, no worries for Free Icholasen."Meanwhile, Simon Bridges rushes inside the palace and into the dining room where he saw King George, Queen Katherine, Queen Anastasia, and Joe Biden. He then said to them in while he keeps his phone inside his coat hanging up the call:
"Your Majesties!" then he bows.
"He has called" he speaks trying to not let Jirluchuz hear his voice from the phone.
"What?!" exclaims George.
Then Simon carefully puts the phone on the table and enables loud speaker. King George then tries to signal the others to remain quiet.
"Mr. Jirluchuz, we would be happy to have your offer. May I know what type of weapons are you offering us?" says Simon on the call. Then Joe gets out of the room and calls the defense minister and the chiefs of the armed forces branches. After a few moments, they arrive at Buckingham Palace.

Juncker was in his room doing some paperwork. As he was the Internal Affairs Commissioner, he could never take a break, except when he was sleeping. He remembered Copala City and the Juncktank meme, which he thinks that helped him to win the elections. At all, it was him, the refugee-killer Trympov and the European Union's most know destroyer, Winston. "How amazing it would be that he had joined the Ibiza's balconing squad" Juncker said. He ended the paperwork and went down to the main room.
When he arrived, he didn't see anyone but employees. He seemed surprised, "where's everyone?" he thought. His birthday was on the 9th December, so it could not be a secret Birthday Party for him. He took a seat and red a book that was over a near table.
