There is one little change I would like to suggest. That in the mutual defense agreement that the word defense be emphasized, and that we make it apply to Middle Eastern territory only as that is the purpose of this agreement.

1) Right of Passage in any of the M.E.T.A countries.
2) Railway network joined up to improve trade and overall industry.
3) Mutual Protection Act (Only applies for Middle East Territories no protection on offensive campains)
4) Open Ports for M.E.T.A. signatories
Ok do we all agree...sign it or say what you want to change etc.
Ottoman Empire Offical signs the treaty.

I would like to bring up the subject of Great Britain first. Requests have been pushed asking for his entrance into the M.E.T.A. Persia, while not minding the nation of Great Britiain, is unhappy over the treatment of Musliums in India. The North-Eastern part of India is largley Muslium, and feels the peoples of that area share much with Persia culture. We would be intrested in reloacating Musliums in India to Persia.
If fellow M.E.T.A members back this, Persia will send the telegram to Great Britiain concerning this.

The Shah's representive brings up an interesting point. Our people too feel kinship with the people's of India. I sign the treaty as it stand, and ask that after META takes effect that we adjourn this meeting until a dignitary from Great Britian may be present then reconvene and discuss the condition of Muslims in India as part of it's entry into this treaty.

If M.E.T.A is all sorted them we should go about acting opon it.
First Issue: Britain admission into META
Should META be purely for countries in the Middle East not merely ones with colonies in it?
Or should we expand our horizons?
Second Issue: Industrialisation
Seeing as we are working together do you want to divide the labour?
For instance: Persia handle constucting the railways in all countries. Ottomans handle building factories in all countries. Arabia handle mining industries across META. Afgans handle something else (was going to say ports and shipyards forgot Afgans landlocked)

Giving the Afghan representative a look of respect for refering to the Shah of Persia directly, the diplomat once again spoke.
"Our Afghani allies proposal is excellent. The telegram to Great Britiain prepared if needed."
The diplomat signs the treaty.
OCC: Alrighty. Once Arabia signs, we can say this one dismises. However, why don't we just post about Great Britain in the same thread.
IC:
The following telegram will be sent to Great Britain pending approval of at least one more M.E.T.A. nation,
/begin
Telegram: London From: Tehran
We would be delighted if you would be willing to attend a confrence with the current members of the M.E.T.A to discuss possible acceptance into the alliance.
/end
OCC: Started writting this before Ottomans post, now it looks a little werid. Continue dicussing the issue of Great Britain, we can send this if we need.
-------------------
Great Britain controls much land in the Middle Eastern area. I think it wise we bring a represnetative to the table, if not meerly to talk.
As for the other Ottoman proposal, we think it a grand idea. By focusing opon one thing, each nation will be able to construct things quickly and proficently.

Im in on that idea. Arabia told me he wont be able to get on until tomorrow though and he'll catch up then.
He said he agreed on everything so far so we can easily carry on without him for the meanwhile.

I want to know where both of you stand on the issue of Indian Muslims. Are you seeking fair and equitable treatment for them or are do you want to go a step farther and demand that they have some degree of autonomy?

Great Britain will no doubt want to maintain control of his lands in India. Persia is intrested in the re-settlement of Indian Musliums in Persia.

I do not think it would be fair to force Persia to accept this burden alone. I would also like to help resettle Muslims within Afghanistan's borders.

As a multicultural society already the Ottoman Empire would be more than willing to take the Indian-Muslims.
Alternativley we suggest that Britain should designate land perhaps in the North East of India towards a new country so it borders with its fellow muslim countries. Therefore the Hindu/Sikh populace can have its own country of India and the followers of Islam can have a government operating under its own religous rules etc.

This is a wonderful idea. We could provide for the joint defense and development of this new nation, built to respect the religon and ethnicity of the people of northern India.
