Recent events within our borders have no doubt caught your eye. This is a note to inform the leadership of the Core of a change in Government within the House of Rheinland. We wish to inform you that the Federal Republic has fallen, the Federal Government has either fled or been placed under house arrest. The Empire of Rheinland has been re-founded in it's place.
We are aware of a few prior agreements between the Federal Republic and the Core, therefore we wish to inform you that we will abide by all agreements previously made between our people. Although we wish to explore a somewhat different relationship with you than our predecessors did.
We would be most appreciative if you could forward us a reply either expressing your interest or disinterest.

»ID:Secretary Laurence Miles Arcturus on behalf of The Core High Command »Location:Durban Station, Omicron Rho »Subject:RE: Core-Rheinland relations »ENCRYPTION:INVINCIBLE
The Core bids you a good day.
As The Core High Command is currently dealing with internal affairs and sees no profit in intervention, a decision was made to remain neutral towards the political situation in Rheinland. Despite our previous deals with Federal representatives, The Core also conducted business with Daumann Heavy Constructions, resulting in construction of Ennibeck Spaceport.
Naturally, The Core is open to any propositions regarding Iridium or Azurite extractions in Omicron Delta, however, due to increased alien and terrorist activity, we cannot provide you with extra ships or weaponry at this moment.
Gloria aeterna!
- Laurence M. Arcturus on behalf of The Core High Command, The Core
