The American League of Prosperity
Government: Fascism, but the leaders are carefully selected by a process undertaken by when the previous dictator becomes too old to continue.
Leader: Fawne Till
Religion: Atheism enforced strictly, as religion is useless.
Language: English, as it is the best language.
Currency: American Dollars, as that is the best currency.
Capital: Detroit.
Economy: Standard Fascist third-position economy.
Law: We try to make sure people have no rights, because then they are easier to control.
National anthem: Music is not important to us. Rather, we focus on literature.
Development: First World.
Goal: Spread Fascism to the world, or at least, North America.
Description: After the 'Great American Experiment in Democracy' failed, the people were in anarchy as the government was falling apart. So, a severe fascism was formed, and the people are very well-taken care of while at the same times being very stifled.

No! No one but the French can be arrogant!
Please do not try to make carbon copies old nations, it makes the map look SOOOOOOOO boring, and it also wouldn't fit in the game since that's not the point. I know I'm making Egypt, yes, but I plan to ignore that big chunk of desert west of the Nile and expand into Outremmer.
I'm out of the other one in favor of this because I don't want to do two and this looks more interesting. Biological weapons FTW!
Anyway.
Neo Old Kingdom
Government: Monarchy
Leader: Pharaoh Ramses XII the Great
Religion: Egyptian
Language: Egyptian
Currency: Egyptian lira (are you seeing the pattern yet?)
Capital: Memphis
Development: Second-world bordering on first.
Economic Policy: An odd mix of capitalism, barter, and, uh, give-the-pharoh-moneyism (neo-ancient-feudalism?)
Social Freedom: Egyptians enjoy surprisingly free social lives for a monarchy.
Political Freedom: Women are better off than in other nations. No elections, it's a monarchy.
Military: The land army is large enough to protect Egypt proper. The navy is a force to be reckoned with, provided that the opposing country is smaller.
History: Ramses XII was tired of people having so much political freedom in the west, and saw it spreading to his beloved Egypt. Islam only oppresses women, and in the bad way. Also, Islam wasn't Egyptian, unlike the old gods, who were significantly more awesome (all Islam had was a flaming sword). Thus the Neo Old Kingdom was created!
Still salmon colored, because that's fairly far from yellow (ie, Egypt color). White provinces in Egypt are still partly under Egyptian republic control, and Crete is also rebelling from Greece in favor of the Neo Old Kingdom (aka planned zone of expansion).

Yes yes, I saw that.
It's just that that's pretty much an SoI on a map.
And I really don't want SoIs popping up in this thread already.

The Proletarian Commonwealth of Great Britain
Spoiler :
Government
A federal socialist republic in that central authority is held by a federal body, specifically the Federal Commune. Smaller Communes report to the Federal Commune, but maintain their own autonomy. The Federal Commune is overseen by the High Chancellor, specifically at this point in its existence, the High Chancellor Edward Hull. Various smaller regional Commune officials abound and appoint their representatives to the Federal Commune which centers in London at the Commune Hall, formerly Parliament. Naturally as part of these governmental reforms the monarchy has been abolished in favor of the greater proletarian and collective authority of the Federal Commune and its High Chancellor and Communitarians.
Capital
The Federal Commune operates from London, specifically at the rechristened Commune Hall.
Language
English
Economic Model
Moderate "Anglican" Socialism as ordained by the Communitarians of the Federal Commune.
Currency
The Pound
Development
Despite the relative violence and destruction of the Peoples' Revolution, the Commonwealth remains a first world nation, with a largely well-fed, well-educated, greatly nationalist populace who are on the whole greatly pleased by the success of the regime thus far, discounting however the questions of the place of private industry and life in the new Commonwealth.
Brief Overview
The post-War period was hard for Britain. The loss of much of its Empire disheartened the people and the government, and growing economic and social strife ultimately gave way to the series of events referred to by most Communitarians as the Peoples' Revolution, when the Old Government was overthrown as part of the struggle for just, socialist authority. The Proletarian Commonwealth styles itself as a collective regime of "peace and love".
Ultimately, the Commonwealth is based on a profound nationalism and pride of "British heritage" which rose after the adversity of the post-War period. It seeks to reunite and rebuild the Empire, in the glorious image of a socialist, proletarian utopia.

I'm not a big fan of SoIs, I just want to establish want my turn 1 borders will look like so no one decides to stick their nation in Low Egypt and Crete.

No diplomacy in this thread yet please.
Of course, I'm glad that there are a lot of Socialist states.

300 speakers isn't a dying language. it is a dead language.
It's fine.
Might have been more in in 1955. But anyway, that's a different language. This game is entirely fictional, so I don't see why I can't have the ancient Egyptian language.

I doubt there was any significant different in a 50 year timespan. I'm pretty sure Coptic has been on its last legs for a long time now and that given that alternate timeline, people had even less time to dedicate to learning a deadish language.
