To Representative Huscarl Agren, the government, & the citizens of the 
Midgard Herding, we offer greetings. 

To your most gracious offer of mining output and trade, we offer our
most 
gracious thanks.

from Northern Europe near the region of Scandinavia.  If we infer
incorrectly, 
we beg your forgiveness. 

And if we recall correctly, Scandinavia boasts a storied history of
fielding 
nation states whose religious identity has been predominately
Protestant.  If 
we infer incorrectly, we again beg your forgiveness.>>

To Honorable Pontif Julius III,

The founding members of the Midgard Herding, were from all over the
former 
powerbase known as the EU, prior to it's split into the NSL and FSE. 
As for 
religious identity we have no offical state religion, but to be fair and
honest 
the Church of Odin does has a strong membership but you can find many
religions 
including Catholics serving within our military.  We do understand that

Patrimonium Petrl, normally doesn't not ally with those who are not a
Catholic 
State.  We are not asking that you police our borders, our own defence
force is 
strong enough to do this for we understand when the Law of Man fails,
the only 
Honor can make things Right.  What we asking are for Trade Agreements
and 
understandings between our two powers.    

It is the stated doctrine of our good & benevolent neighbor, the Common 
Republic, that they do not condone FSE adventurism in their backyard -
and since 
system LTT 11262 lies a mere 3.7 parsecs from the Holy See of the
Patrimonium 
Petrl, we are - in this regard - of the same mind. >>

Here I have been lead wrong and most beg your forgiveness for I beleived
that 
Patrimonium Petrl, was laying claim to the LTT 11262 system.  We will
welcome 
the aid in defending the system against any possible FSE interferance in
the 
mining operations we currently have operational within.  At the same
time if 
you are not laying claim to system then the Midgard Herding will
continue to 
maintain it's Navy taskforce within the system.

But seeing as the Common Republic is an independent client state that
trades 
extensively with the FSE, as well as provides 2nd & 3rd line designs to
their 
navy, we surmise that they would be extremely reluctant to respond FSE 
incursions with military force, prefering to resolve the imbroglio
through more 
peaceful - and potentially lengthy - diplomatic negotiations. >>

Our relationship with the Common Republic is currently neutral, however
given 
that our relationship with the FSE is currently on a downslide, we are
unsure 
how this will effect them.
