The State of Iraf

Originally formed by people moving down the river Tigris and from eastern Iran Iraf formed it's own state based around the city of Susa. The Culture is highly influenced by the more powerful Sumerian cities to the east such as Ur.

The main deity worshipped is Inshushinak

Holy Tribe of Israel

History: Originally from the Fertile Crescant, a man claimed that god has spoken to him, and told of a place in the west that is a holy land, took a group of followers and made their journey to The Promised Land, where they shall rule. When they made it to the land, they built the great city of Jerusalam, to serve as a city fit for god.

Government: Monarchy

Claims:

Should I be Euskaldunak (Basques) or the Jomon (Japanese)?

Whatever you perfer. However, I will say that someone will probably be Japanese, while you might be the only one interested in Basque.

I translated the writing on the flag. Makes it look better using Snapirese (Which, to the both untrained and trained eyes, is exactly like Finnish... :mischief:) rather than English.
 
The Kasanazi Culture
Spoiler :

The Kasanazi are an aggressive, maritime people that developed on the island of Hisho (Honshu, Japan). Most of the land in Hisho is rocky or forested, and therefore, unsuitable for agriculture. The Kasanazi were therefore forced to take to the seas to feed their villages. The sparse amount of land also led to extreme competition amongst the various tribes of the Kasanazi, with resulted in a cycle of warfare that dominated the Kasanazi culture.
 
Well, I guess that settles it. I pick Jomon and declare KANLY against the Kasanazi!
























Nah, i pick the Basques. I can't edit the map right now, i'm not at home, so if anyone claims Euskadi, i'll start directly adjacent to you and dedicate my existence to ending you. :trouble:
 
I will be the Bering Tribe

More info later, and picture in attachments :D
 
Huaxia
Otherwise just another village in China, the history of the of Shou Qiu would change forever the villagers rallied around a man called Xuanyuan, who claims that the heavens have mandated that he would be the one that unify the tribes of China and take his place as the Yellow Emperor. Whether this is true or not, only time shall tell...

So, I got about 7/8 players. That's' not too shabby. I'll throw that number of NPCs in though to fill things up a bit. Going to add the "New Player Rule" to the OP here in a second. Nothing too fancy, just something to make sure a player doesn't come in while everyone's in Late Industrial and get stuck with 10 LPs in the Stone Age.
 
Screw Atlantis, I want dragons.

This should make everything fairly self-explanatory:

Game starts later today as soon as I finish up adding players to the map.
 
Euskaldunak
The Basque People

In the beginning, the Earth was barren, inhabited only by the Gods. One of these Gods, known as Pirinioak, knew that there could be more, that the world had potential. He toiled in secret to create an inhabitant worthy of the land. Pirinioak made many creatures, but none of them he felt was worthy. He went to the other Gods for help. One God, a devious one who's name was never to be spoken, offered to help. Pirinioak and the Other came closer and closer to achieving their goal, until one day, Man was made upon the Earth. Pirinioak was proud, and felt he had finally made something worthy of the Earth. But the Other stole Man, made Man a shell, and used him as a puppet. The Other had betrayed Pirinioak, and used Man as a source of slave labor.

Pirinioak was outraged, but the other Gods supported the Other. In the night, he crept into the Other's domain and took back the reins of Man. But he was discovered by the Other. The Other attacked Pirinioak, and in self defense, Pirinioak wounded the Other. Pirinioak fled the Land of the Gods, taking with him most of Man. The Other went to the rest of the Gods, and convinced them to go after Pirinioak. Pirinioak fled far, but he could not flee forever. The Other had managed to make more of Man, but these were dark and twisted by the Other's influence. Before long, these dark Men outnumbered Pirinioak and his Men.

Pirinioak knew he could not stand against this large coalition against him, and decided there was only one thing to do. He cut Man from the strings of Destiny, leaving him free to determine his own fate, a power reserved only for the Gods. Pirinioak called these Men "Euskaldunak". Pirinioak knew that the dark forces would never leave them alone, so he took them to a place past a narrow strip of land. Pirinioak then sacrificed himself, forming a chain of great mountains, mountains that evil could not pass, called the Auñamendiak. The Euskaldunak, with the help of Pirinioak's mountains, defeated the massed forces of evil. The holy mountains of Pirinioak, and the lands beyond, became the new homeland of the Euskaldunak.

The Euskaldunak have lived here ever since, waiting and watching. Evil will come again, to try and stop Pirinioak's chosen people, to put them back in chains, to tie them again with the strings of Destiny. So the Euskaldunak must remain vigilant, until the end of time.

Commentary

Spoiler :
Global

Across the world, new tribes are rising from the grips of millions of years of large-scale disorganization to form tribes. Life is hard and brutally short. Animal domestication is new but is showing promising results. Meanwhile, farming is difficult but rewarding but based on the whim of Mother Nature. Sometimes, she is kind and the tribe lives another year. Many times, she decides to test the will of the people who depend on her.

The average Leadership Point total of the world is ten.

Creating a city costs 10 LPs this turn. A city created this turn would start off generating 3 LPs.

Europe

The Snapir, Basque, and British people have organized and formed a common identity. In the Aegean Sea, the Targaryens have organized around the House Targaryen.

North America

The Bering Tribe has risen.

South America

South America is still gripped by uncivilized people but maybe this will someday change.

Africa

Africa is still gripped by uncivilization but maybe this will change someday as well.

Asia

Things are moving fast in the far east. In the village of Shou Qiu, a man named Xuanyuan has claimed the Mandate of Heaven and organized his people to form Huaxia. In Japan, the Kasanazi are rising but with a strong naval tradition created by a hostile, rocky environment. In the Middle East, the Holy Tribe of Israel has risen not too far from the State of Iraf based in Susa.

Oceania

Oceania remains gripped by barbarians.
