Disclaimer: I obviously do not own Battle Royale, because I am writing a story based on it on the internet. Anyway, they also do not mention allies of the Republic of Greater East Asia in the novel or the film. I have not read the manga, so I'm not sure about that. I'm just expanding upon Koushun Takami's alternative universe here.
BATTLE ROYALE INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENT
Every nation to have signed on to membership in the Anti-Imperialist Nations' Union (AINU) agrees to give up five youths, ages 14-18, to the purpose of an international Program. A great wealth of tactical information has been pulled from previous Programs, which have taken place in the Republic of East Asia for decades and in the German People's Republic for the past decade. As is common practice in the two nations who currently have Programs in practice, the home nation of the winner will provide a lifetime pension, as well as one other gift, to be specified by each government to fit their cultural boundaries and needs, to their victor.
Every nation participating will either have two males and three females, or three males and two females. If a nation is to send two males and three females this year, that same nation will send three males and two females next year, and so on.
Participating students are selected by random lottery, and will be taken from their homes under the guise of having won a free ticket to a vacation of some sort. Several free vacation contests will be held in close proximity to protect the privacy of this agreement. For the competition to remain on an equal playing field, the students must not know their fate upon departure.
The first nation to host the Program will be selected at random, with a different nation hosting every year. Once the cycle is completed, it will continue to repeat. This will also be a national event, happening once every year.
This competition will have the same classic Program rules that are implemented during Programs in the Republic of Greater East Asia and the German People's Republic.
Updates will be televised, and the Program will be advertised and watched as a general means of public entertainment. The winner will be shown on the news channels of every nation in the competition, and the regulations for making wagers on certain contestants will be specified by each central government.
New nations are always welcome to participate in the Program, though they will have certain expectations that are not present with veteran nations.
Language barriers will not be an issue, for all students in AINU nations are taught at least two ally languages from a very young age, in accordance with the original AINU agreement of 1974.
Participating nations of the first program are the Republic of Greater East Asia, the German People's Republic, the Persian Republic of Iran, the Mongolian Nationalist Republic, the Republic of Nepal, the National Socialist Republic of Russia, and the Bulgarian Slavic Union.
