The Tea Party

Spoiler :

The year is 1746 and England drafts from its colonies an army large enough to take over India twice over. This leads to a fierce naval battle between Britain and Portugal.
Spoiler :

What Britain doesn't understand is that there is a revolution brewing in America. The experience gained from General Washington would soon backfire on the Empire. He understands the guerilla warfare needed to defeat British lines, and the diplomacy needed to win the middle ground in the Ohio Valley.
Spoiler :


The Declaration of Independence has been signed, and the American Revolution has begun. The man leading it, George Washington, has been nicknamed the American Fabius.
Spoiler :


This is a country founded on the ideals of democracy, freedom and liberty. After the war, an election is planned; although, Washington probably will run uncontested due to his leadership and popularity. The real question is, will America go towards a path of great imperialism, manifest destiny, isolation, rural democracy, elitism, federalism, and/or slavery?

The American Dream is that you can write your own history.
 
The American Revolution was violent and competitive. The American people demanded representation for their taxes. This eventually led to blockades from England, in which America was able to sink a small fleet using pirated frigates and galleons.
Spoiler :

Meanwhile, slave trading was still a reality; in obvious contrast to the Declaration of Independence which states all men are created equal.
Spoiler :

The Ohio Valley Indians fought hard for their own territory as well, but were defeated by superior weaponry.
Spoiler :

In 1783, Benjamin Franklin managed to get to Europe to talk about American ideals, politics, trading prospects, and that ilk. The galleon made a risk sailing across the Atlantic, but eventually made it to Portuguese lands where it stayed until it knew the path to France was safe from the British navy. Talking to France, America managed to get France to declare war on the British, and the French revolution soon after took place which modeled another democracy. Conversing with the Dutch, Americans learned the importance of corporations. Benjamin Franklin bringing back this information allowed new trading partners, expanded the range of democracy, and changed America from an agrarian society to a capitalist, free market society.
Spoiler :

In 1787, the war still raged on with no solution in sight. American ships continued to protect American seas, although fisherman were constantly subject to being captured. American seas were finally safe when the first Man of War, the USS Constitution, was built.
Spoiler :

The closing of the war in George Washington's 2nd term as president was a controversial move, in which he gave the Crown a large sum of money in order to secure a peace treaty. He said that was worth it, as it allowed the borders to be safe once again and naval trade routes to be open. Furthermore, he turned down a third term and continued his life at his home in Virginia. He said partisan bickering is something to be aware of and avoid. Outside of politics, American colonists looked for their manifest destiny in the West.
Spoiler :

Spoiler :


1st President, George Washington 1775-1796
Spoiler :

Bill of Rights ensured people their rights and closed the gap between Federalists and Anti-Federalists.
The American Revolution was won.
Westbound colonization and international trading partners.
 
3rd quadrennial presidential election

Federalist Party
John Adams, Age 61, former Vice President, diplomat, political theorist, and statesman. Opposed to slavery, having never bought one. Appointed George Washington as commander-in-chief during early years of the revolution. Helped Washington in securing peace with England and loans from Amsterdam (corporation tech). Wants to build up the American navy. Independent from partisan thought. Wants to stay neutral in international affairs. Wants stronger immigration laws.
Spoiler :


Democratic-Republican Party
Thomas Jefferson, Age 70, principal author of Declaration of Independence. Wants to promote expansion and colonization. Wants softer immigration laws. Wants to remove Native Americans and put them in reservations to allow room for migrants. Wants to ban buying of new slaves. Wants to take away a great deal of federal taxes. Finds the navy unnecessary since America is in peace time. Wants no trade with England, and wants to create embargos against England through other democratic allies. Doesn't believe in a standing army, instead wants a well trained militia.
Spoiler :


Ballot

Adams 8
Jefferson 7
 
American civ is always intresting. Too bad taking whole North America before 30's is really hard and building all wonders is equal matter of luck.
 
Hey has Mexico changed much in American game play so far?

"Meanwhile, slave trading was still a reality; in obvious contrast to the Declaration of Independence which states all men are created equal."

Slaves were originally considered 1/5 of a white person in your constitution, look it up. Not to mention the founding Fathers all owned slaves.
Soon your America will fall away.
 
John Adams Corporation tech will make the best.

Another one story. I like this :goodjob:
