Imperium Offtopicum V

If an Orthodox nation claims the Holy Land, that is almost as much offense to the Catholic nations (including me) as if the Muslims would claim it.

oh come on! nothing pleases you Catholics... :(

As the rules state "Your starting territories must be connected in some way, either by land or by viable sea routes" (If it is, I'll ask the other GMs on there take on the distance between Istanbul and Israel

Since you don't have enough territory points. You're still in Modern Turkey and not even touching Modern Israel. Are you willing to make changes of your current claims before the update?

Yes.

In a related story, I'm disbanding all the navies of all people who do not have access to the sea. Don't worry - once you get a coastline you can order a new one at no cost.

fine then. i claim Istanbul, plus 9 surrounding territories. the European side must be the same as modern turkey though. i'm officially abandoning the city state concept.

I encourage you to make your next expansions into Anatolia. Just to make sure we avoid wars on the second turn.
 
Byzantine Emperor, you claimed it on your own idea. I then asked for either joint rile or handing to me. Do not lie over the Holy Land.

if you want it, please claim it on the first update. im just too tired to dispute rules
 
I had a question asked on this, so I'll just clarify here RESEARCH SPENDING IS CUMULATIVE. That means, if you can spend your income on research the amount you invest that turn will carry over to the next turn.

Income, on the other hand, is not cumulative and your per-turn income is all you have to work with in a given turn.
 
The Xi'an Empire

I will post some statistics when I have time

We make diplomacy actually challenging! :D

Also, The Green Empire temporarily disbands it´s army and navy to save on upkeep.

EDIT: X-Post, and your a bit close to China...

Xi'an is the name of my favorite city in China. I am creating an empire revolving around that. I have no dispute against the Chinese, but at the moment my Northern most province is in Fact where Xi'an is.

I don't think my claims coflicted China, if they do I am prepared to negotiate, but as long as my capital remains in my hands, I am prepared for a fair offer.
 
Drumroll please... *drumroll*

The long awaited....​

The front page will be updated to this update.

GM Notes- You can now do diplomacy, but as the rules say, please try and keep a good amount of it in PMs/VMs. That way we won't clog up the thread with "thousand-post-a-night" syndrome that plagued the other IOT's and made them impossible to follow. Remember, quality posts over quantity. This doesn't mean you can't post diplo in the thread, just be reasonable. Also try and remember, you can only sign one agreement per turn, not per country, but as a whole. The agreements, or should I say, the "big four" are listed in the rules. You can also sign only one embargo per turn.

Also, before you ask any questions on how things work, please read through the rules. Tailless did a great job of explaining the mechanics and how the game works. So please, read through the rules again if you have, or read them all the way through if you skimmed.
 
i claim six territories in the Anatolian coast. the lighter shade of purple is used.

how much income do i get per turn?
 
Update looks awesome.

@Japan: Actually, we proposed this after you came begging to reopen lines of communciation.

my me said:
I want a public apology where all can see(OOC: Thread) detailing how you were wrong, calling me a figure head, and apologizing for embargoing me. Let's say you give me 10 million florins(OOC: For RP reasons) in repayment.

And you:

At the pope's Relatively reasonable request, I am appologizing to the Pope and sending 10 Million Florins as payment. I have insulted him without cause. I also will not be embargoing him ATM.

@Aysee- See your VMs, I want to talk to you.

I mean WTH? A public apology such as that should be large, not some two liner. You insulted me without cause, yes, however you didn't point out that you called me a figurehead, you didn't apologize for embargoing me(I know not official, but I was assuming you would have as soon as you could), and the ATM thing was just not right. You ever hear of a public apology? Its supposed be big and grand and covers everything the person asks that would should.

While I really don't care right now, next time something like this comes up, with me or others, I expect that the Emperor be willing and ready to do something grand. Perhaps simple newness to the global stage?

To: The Faithful
From: His Holiness, the Pope


I grow old and weary, and I am unaware of your plans in the upcoming years. Who will sign what with who? Please do tell me so I may adjust according.

His Holiness, the Pope's Claims

As much of the Holy Land as possible. I'm not aware if I can, so please do tell soon.
