(>) St. Stan is correct. If you're accepting work outside your usual territory, lack of
knowledge about current world eveents and trends can get you killed just as fast as only
bringing a knife to a gunfight. Just remember what the man said, this is only a synopsis -
not the end-all source of knowledge you'll need. Do your own research - take more than
that knife with you when you go.

(>) Nothing that's made the world news services, anyway.
(>) Maul
----------------
(>) Right in one, Maul. I for one have done my share of work

in Madagascar. Excellent place for mercenary work, with

neither Amazonia or Azania willing to commit in force, they

need someone to keep up the pressure.

It's primary source of wealth, and therefore independence, is it's surprisingly rich
deposits of various mineral resources. Of course, continued, if small, aid from both the
UCAS and CAS have been a tremendous help.
----------------
(>) Those mineral deposits have the corporations sniffing around like wolves, though.
In particular SK is after cheap resouces and manufacturing plants. When the corps. wnat
something there's usually a job for a runner in there somehwere. Pack your assasination
kit and explosives.

(>) Azania isn't an African Tir. Or at least that's what I hear. Apparently got more
in common with Amazonia, despite the fact elves are in charge.
(>) E.E.
----------------
(>) Bah, don't let the elves smokescreen fool ya. I've said it before and I'll say it
again. There's a few elves in each of the Elf Nations that know too much andare more than
just Spike Babies. Watch 'em closly.

The nation of Ras Tafari is largely peaceful however. Most of the inhabitants are devout
followers of Rastafarianism and live a peaceful, rural life, farming the magically
rejuvenated fields.
----------------
(>) Food for thought here folks: No magic is without its price. The rejuvenation
rituals mentioned here worked like a dream to revitalize the land, and return it to a
better time. So what was the price? Who paid it? Amazonia did much the same sort of thing,
and they were forced to trade off the continuous, uncontrolled expansion of the rainforest
in order to get it back. What price did Ethiopia pay for a more controlled revitalization
- and when is the bill going to come due?

----------------
(>) Those stupid Elves! I've been to Azania. The elves there are all paranoid

of humans! Even the LDS Church has to send elvish missionaries into Azania and they

aren't well received! The elves in Azania says that the Church is a North American church

ran by humans and won't even deal with the Church! Stupid elves, I wish I could just belt

them in the brain!
