Well, things certainly seem to be going well for Herr Wonker aka the Spawn of Satan. It's a pity he doesn't have any friends, though. With all that chocolate around surely he can make someone like him?

Good point. Maybe I'll get some advice from The Golden Pig and The Concrete Porker on using food in diplomacy.
Wow, just noticed this! Really cool setup, I like your conversion from EUII into the marketing business, really cool!
Haven't you had any problems with anonymous phone calls threatening not to let Wonker Jr. out? Or maybe some Oompa-Loompa's with boards displaying "STRIKE FOR NO APPARENT REASON!"???
But seriously, really cool! Ironic that the second brother to go into the forum is the first one I read...However, haven't really seen J. Passapartout writing AARs lately, so ...
Keep it up!

I've been working slowly on my Golden Pig story.
Spawn of Satan... Hmm... I should take that name for myself...
Let the BB wars begin.
"Court is now in session," said the judge, beginning the case of Mainz Chocolate Company v. Habsburg & Son Law Firm, Siena Pope-hat Makers, Eire Rainbow Pots Inc., Cologne Perfume Co., Kleves Nothing-in-Particular Corp., English Mutton Wholesalers, Munster Goat Milkers, Wurzberg Architectural Company, Royal Bank of Scotland, France Mega-Super Corporation, and Poland Snow Co.. I shall not traumatize you with the details of the case, but I shall merely say that the MCC lost, and lost in such a spectacularly pitiful way that it would bring even the most bitter enemies of the company to tears. Wonker was sentenced to death, and control of the Mainz Chocolate Company handed over, for the most part, to Habsburg & Son Law Firm.
I bring you one last scene before the end of the story. Wonker was talking to Friedrich V, the president of Habsburg & Son, as they walked down a dark corridor. "Heh. Heh, good for you..." Wonker said nervously and desperately, "You've... won."
Friedrich continued walking, not even glancing at Wonker. Wonker looked even more dissapointed.
"Uh, you see, I'd been planning to retire, so I planned that... contest... and... you won! You get the factory, my boy. Congratulations! See, am I not just the kindest old man?"
Friedrich stopped walking and turned toward Wonker. He spoke in a slow and mocking tone, as one might speak to a child, "Yes. Yes, whatever you say Mr. Wonker."
And with that, Wilhem Wonker was thrown into a ravine infested with hungry crocodiles.
And very few people in the continent of Europe lived happily ever after.
Morale of the story:
1. Have positive relations with at least one nation
2. Choose an easier country next time.

Aw, too, too sad! The Chocolate Factory has closed down 
Well, it was a brave attempt, and very entertaining while it lasted. There's nothing for it now - you'll just have to start another one!

Hopefully he'll beginanother one soon, though I must also express my disappointment
I will be starting a new AAR any time now. I'm looking at Castille as a nice, easy, yet fun country to play. Does anyone have recommendations?

I may not agree with point number 2, but the first is beyond dispute.
Next time, in addition to your legal staff, make sure you have a good Public Relations Department. This was a great AAR, if all too short. Better luck next time.
