It's college app season for me and possibly many other players.
 
Russia has no need for a ceasefire, as we are not a belligerent. We do offer Russian soldiers, who thus far have been completely neutral, as peace-keepers to oversee a ceasefire.

We do not find this necessary at the moment, but thank you for the offer. Should the rebels not recognize the ceasefire, then will we be willing to accept peacekeepers.
 
So what nations are NPC?
 
South Africa, most of the nations that don't have more than 3 or 4 IC.
 
Finally, Emperor Napoleon V has authorized the creation of the Francophone Games, memberships are only offered to French vassals and colonial communities. It is his hopes that the Games will strengthen the ties between France and her loyal vassals, prizes are awarded to victorous vassals, sometimes monetary, sometimes tech or even a military ship or unit would be awarded. An official of the games commented that it all depends on how many medals a said vassal wins to warrant such a prize. France will recieve no prizes as they are the creators of the games and they desire no recognition, only loyalty and respect from its vassals and colonials.

From France
To Vassals of France; Italy, Spain, Portugal, Brazil and the colonials.


France has reopened the Francophone Games, the Games will be held in Paris next year and all nations are invited to send athletes to the games. The events are listed in the next paper. Hope to see you at the Games.
La République du Québec assumes that francophone nations which are unaffiliated with France are welcome to attend.

I am now once again, proud to announce the unveiling of THE OLYMPICS! All countries are welcome to participate! The games will be held in Athens this year.

Why has Greece chosen to name these games 'Olympic'? The Olympics are an ancient, exclusively Greek competition- surely a more appropriate name could be chosen.
 
An what the hell is "aquatics"
 
Perhaps the Quebecans would be so kind as to create a name for us. We're stumped.

An what the hell is "aquatics"

We classified aquatics as all the major water based sports, mostly all the swim meets.
 
Update 19
Year 1924


MilesPoindexter.jpg

President Miles Poindexter (P)

Americas:


UNITED STATES PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS OF 1924: Washington D.C, USA: President Johnson is at the end of his term and the elections are on the horizon. The three main candidates are Miles Poindexter of the Progressive Party, James Cox of the Democratic Party and Calvin Coolidge of the Republican party. The Progressive party still dominated the scene in a majority of the state, however many surprises arose from the election, including the 100+ Electoral votes of James Cox. Coolidge did not fair so well and came in last with only two states carried. Miles Poindexter wins the election by a substantial margin and holds onto the White House for his party.

MEXICAN ELECTIONS HOLD GROUND FOR CENTRALISTS: Mexico City, Mexico: The Centralists party managed to hold the presidency for another term with plans to increase the industrial sectors of the poorer regions and bring higher living standards and jobs.

CARIBBEAN UNDER NEW LEADERSHIP: Kingston, Republic of the Caribbean: With an official signing out of the dominionship, the Caribbean government quickly moves to make reforms to a Minarchist establishment. A reduction of government departments and projects, lowering of taxes and elimination of former tariffs turn the nation into a business haven and promotes economic growth. (Minarchist Government, +2 IC)

QUEBEC IN POLITICAL SHIFT: Quebec City, Quebec: Years of leftist rule have left a void for the right in Quebec, which has just begun to show prominently. Major aeronautics industries in Montreal begin to complain about business taxes and threaten to move to the US or Caribbean. Even under these complaints the industrial giant founded by Felicio Hernandez, officially known as Fernand Industries has opened new automobile factories in Quebec City. (+1 IC)

WAR IN SOUTH AMERICA!: Bairdstown, La Plata: Fascist leaders of La Plata have mobilized after so called military actions of Peru caused tensions to rise and war to break out. War propaganda spreads through the nation and reaches nearly everyone via state run newspapers and causes a massive jump in recruits to put down the ’threatening’ Peruvians. (+30,000 Infantry) Over 200,000 soldiers began an invasion of Peru in March which proved to be a fast and destructive campaign. By this time the war effort had been turned to “freeing the Paraguayans from the unlawful rulers in Lima”, but many abroad and in Brazil knew this to be a scam on the people. None the less the war progressed, with the final major defeat for the offensive taking place in Arequipa, where the superior forces of the Platian army defeated a larger force of Peruvian defenders. Death tolls were estimated to be around 90,000. Platian diplomats are meeting with Peruvians ones in attempts to gain a favorable peace before the Brazilians make a move. Nothing has come of it yet as the troops wait for further orders. (-1 IC Peru)
CASUALTIES:
Peru: 82,000 Infantry, 24 Artillery Pieces, 3,000 Mountain Infantry, 13 Light Recon
Plate: 26,000 Infantry, 9,000 Cavalry, 12 Artillery Pieces, 2 Light Tanks, 2 Fighters


Europe:


BRITISH SECRET POLICE RESTORE ORDER/RIOTS IN IRELAND: London, Britain: Years of subjugation by the British have led to a fairly predictable Irish rebellion, early successes have been tremendous with a majority of Ireland obtained in early riots and skirmishes with British Secret Police and military. Back on Britain, things calm down as the new propaganda wave and secret police scare or convince people to settle down and wait out the crisis. Many go missing suspiciously. The military is reorganized so less loyal officers are moved aside entirely for pro-fascist ones, sometimes less qualified. Many soldiers flee to France when word of their protest of this gets out. In Ireland, British police and soldiers begin using gases on crowds and anger the population even more, cries for freedom echo around the world as everyone watches the British Empire fall off it’s pedestal.
CASUALTIES:
Britain: 600 Infantry
Irish: 3,400 Misc Deaths


FRANCE HOLDS TIGHT AND STRENGTHENS DEFENSES: Paris, France: As war erupts in pockets around the globe the French build more machines of war, launching two new Goliath Battleships as a counter to possible hostile Japanese or British actions. More troops are moved to defend the borders in Croatia.


FINLAND GAINS INDEPENDENCE: Helsinki, Finland: The Russian Empire has given Finland it’s independence after over a decade of Russian rule. They remain close allies and connected in government for now, but will grow into a stable nation given time. Similar preparations are being made in Persia.


BALKAN WARS: Bucharest, Romania: A cease-fire has been agreed to by a majority of the rebelling factions with a few small skirmishes occurring here and there. Efforts to make an acceptable peace deal have yet to come through.
CASUALTIES:
Romania: 400 Infantry
Germany: 150 Infantry
Islamic Caliph: 1,200 Infantry, 1 Light Tank
Rebels: 12,000 mixed infantry and militia


DENMARK LOSES INVESTMENTS ON FEARS OF RECESSION: Copenhagen, Denmark: Years of wild spending have finally caught up to the government and many billions of dollars have been lost in investment companies in the colonies and at home. German companies have been affected by these problems as well. (-1 IC Denmark, -1 IC Germany)


RUSSIAN ECONOMIC BOOM STALLED: Moscow, Russian Empire: Industrialization has been gaining ground but the economy barely flinches as war in Romania drain on the economy with fears of another world war. Some progress is made however. (+1 IC)


Asia:


INDIA’S GREAT PLAN SHOWS PROMISE: New Delhi, ISU: Recent modernization of agricultural and urban settings in India are still paying off with a decent industrial boost. (+3 IC)


OOC: In the stats, when they are done, some spending was done in other locations due to players ignoring the rules and trying to spend using money from the wrong sectors.

The Union intends to formally release Hungary as a free, independent and neutral state in the coming years. The German people also extend a hand of friendship towards the Fins newly free and independent. From the Union and all Germans a hand of friendship and thanks is extended to the Russian government and people, stalwart as they have been in trying to remove the impediments to good relations, the Union full well intends to uphold its side of the bargain.

On that same note Romania, and the German Union, in negotiations with Russia have also agreed in principle to the re-foundation of Serbia, and Bulgaria as free nations. Details to follow.

Germany on behalf of the Central Alliance also welcomes the entry of Greece into the Central Alliance. Providing no members disagree.
 
From The United States of America
To La Plata
CC: The World

We demand an explaination for your violent actions against Peru immediately. Peru offered no provocation for such rash actions and clearly you have abused any reason to go to war by blowing a minor incident out of proportion.

We urge the Global Community to come out in opposition against La Plata's blatantly imperialistic acts and complete disregard for the sovereignty of Peru.

ooc after you send me a PM on current USA affairs after you are done with stats. I'm rather in the dark as to what Light Fang has been doing.
