A Brave New World Part 2

[Arian]

Small pics ain't gonna work. I need them at least 400x400 pxls, preferably higher, like 640x480 pxls.
Also maybe there exist (scans of) paintings (in color) in stead of bw-photographs, i.e. of royal families. I dunno.

New "Original" Flag

[bombshoo]

New RoC flag.

Spoiler :

Red is the Earth, blue is the sky with a white sun in the middle and yellow is the heavens . The white sun's twelve rays represent the twelve months of the Chinese calendar. Though addition of the yellow heavens onto the flag is due to larger percentage of Chinese Christians then OOTL (due to New English missionaries), the Republic is still mostly secular and has Buddhist, Taoist, Muslim and Atheist leaders as well.

If these posts were missed, they have images that can be used (or not; I don't really care) as well.

If the movie needs a picture of higher quality it can be done. The Flag that I stole originally looked like that already.

Until we know the conditions that Korea wants, war between our two nations shall continue.

THE VIRGINIAN KINGDOM FLAG

The seal shows the agricultural roots of the Kingdom, along with the rifle meant to depict defense and security, while the eagle is the imperial symbol of the monarch, as well as a symbol of freedom and independence. Really an American icon. The colors hearken back to the Union Jack, but the red is meant to symbolize the monarch, the white its people, and the blue the land of the country.

Currently the Virginian Empire has no flag, and it is a heated debate within the National Assembly whether or not to adopt the Virginian flag as the Imperial Flag.



Edit: big thanks to human-slaughter for design of the flag! He deserves the artistic credit.

@Jason The King, Is that an altered Seal of Ohio? I've seen the spot that was painted after. If you stand in the right spot and at the right time, it looks almost exactly the same to this day. Its surprisingly scenic for where its at.

It's the view of Adena. I've never seen that rendition exactly but the resemblance is startling - I wonder if h-s drew it himself.

Interesting. And yes, it is the seal, just removed rays from the sun and the bushels of wheat.

He altered an existing rendition.

The Korean Empire shall surrender most of its remaining Chinese holdings to the coalition of Western powers, save for a small base in Yunnan. We will pull out our troops from the mainland, save for a strictly limited garrison in the said small base. We will surrender economic rights to Jeju and Kyushu to your coalition, and though those islands will legally belong to us you may keep garrisons there alongside ours to maintain your economic interests. We will also limit our hull sizes to cruiser-level.

However, we would like to sign non-aggression pacts with your coalition, that will remain in perpetuity. We would also like to open up free and equitable trade with the Republic of China, and we request that you convince them to allow us to do business there. Also, if it is possible, please extend this peace to the Empire of China, and perhaps help us in establishing a compromise between the Empire and the Republic, one that will be agreeable to both parties, to avoid further bloodshed.

We could agree to peace and trade with the Korean Empire and could even consider the possibility of a small Korean enclave in Yunnan under the right conditions. However what we cannot do recognize the Chinese Empire as a legitimate government in China. The Chinese Empire is a backward and oppressive regime and as long as it exists as an independent or semi-independent state there cannot be peace. The Chinese people have flocked to the Republic because we have promised to end to the tyranny of the Empire and bring democracy to China; to go back on this promise would be to betray our own people and compromise the most fundamental values of our beliefs.

From: Korea

The Korean Empire speaks for itself, as it recognizes that it cannot defend itself, much less the Chinese Empire, without destroying itself in the process. If the Chinese wish to have civil war, it is up to them: intervention is beyond this Empire at this point. We are only asking those who do have the power to intervene, the Western coalition, to do so in the name of peace, without the bloodshed that such a prolonged civil war would cause.

We may be willing to sign a peace treaty at the offer of some land given completely to Portugal, and no just an area where we can store troops in.

EP isn't the same thing as industry. A badly industrialized country can be worth less than a well run agricultural country. Also, Deseret isn't in desert. They have some of the best farmland in North America.

So Georgia with it's history of heavy industry, large quantities of farm land and population still is only 4 EP more than Deseret?

I can also make the Georgian flag larger if required.

Treaty of Baghdad

1/ Hostilities between the Ottoman Empire and the Virginian Empire cease immediately.

2/ Ottoman Empire recognizes Virginian currently-occupied territory and cedes land up to and including Baghdad, as per the map upon which it was agreed.

3/ Virginia will incorporate land ceded to it by the Ottoman Empire in some sort of protectorate with limited self government within one year (to allow the necessary nation-building).

4/ Ottoman Empire will recognize Virginian right to intervene in Persia to protect her interests there.

5/ Both parties will agree to sign a Non-Aggression Pact that will last for 15 years.

The Ottoman Empire signs.

OOC: What's the point if you're going to have economic control over the area anyway? Not having direct control of the land just means you won't have to pay for administrative costs, you know.

Orders sent.
