could be fun in Champa, the ripples from Loki are still bouncing, so I'm expecting some anti-nuclear protests soon.

Umeria might be amusing because of traditional respect for old age and to watch the Umerians dockside welcome the Hundred-Bannered Venerable Ancestor-Ship or whatever.
Orion would gladly welcome such an important and venerable vessel to our ports.
EDIT: Excellent, responses, and nuanced ones too. This should be interesting indeed. I'll have responses up soon, but I'm travelling at present so it might not be until this evening or tomorrow.
Baltar: "I don't want to miss a moment of the last Battlestar's destruction!"
Centurion: "Sir, I really think you should look at the other Battlestar."
Baltar: "What are you babbling about other...it's impossible!"
Centurion: "No. It is a Battlestar."
Corrax Entry 7:17: So you walk eternally through the shadow realms, standing against evil where all others falter. May your thirst for retribution never quench, may the blood on your sword never dry, and may we never need you again.
Fuso would definitely be interested in hosting the Enterprise during its final voyage. I suppose it would also be a good tme to hold naval exercises with the Cascadian Navy while Enterprise is in town.
I ship Eino Ilmari Juutilainen x Lydia V. Litvyak.
Phantasee: Don't be a dick.
Stofsk: What are you, his mother?
The Yosemite Bear: Obviously, which means that he's grounded, and that she needs to go back to sucking Mr. Coffee's cock.

It's not so much that I want a direct response.* It's that... well, the War on Terror as we know it owes a lot to the American role as a hyperpower reacting very angrily to an attack on its soil and calling in favors from its many ally/dependent states, while pretty much ignoring the conventions of international custom on how wars are waged.
Such a thing would look very different in a truly multipolar world where one of the few things everyone can agree on is the right of individual nation-states to be prickly about their neutrality.
*(roleplaying out an actual conference might be fun though, or it might be too complex for the play-by-post format)

That would be in one game year. We could say we have annual naval exercises perhaps. The CVBG on deployment in the northwest Pacific would attend them.
Although Hawaii might host multinational RIMPAC-style exercises that we'd all participate in too.

Yes indeed. Provided your nation doesn't go under from being bankrupt.

Hey Steve, I'll take a visit from the Enterprise as well.
As long as the Captain isn't Jonathon Archer.
Hmm, is Va'Kel Shon a Cascadian name?

I currently have RIMPAC scheduled for even years in early May, as that is the only time of year when there isn't a tropical cyclone season in the Pacific.

San Dorado is already confirmed as one stopover.
I'd probably welcome a visit to Corona. If its going to San Dorado, its just a short trip south to Corona.
So Hawaii, Fuso, possibly Umeria, possibly Champa, San Dorado, Corona, and Orion so far. Don't think I missed anyone?
I'd be shocked (and a mite offended ) if Rheinland doesn't propose a visit too.
