EUIOT: The Golden Bull

[mayor]

Hungry will change it's name to full if somebody gives it a ham sandwich with pickle relish.

The Prince-Bishop of Utrecht regrets to inform Hungry that he isn't in the possession of such a sandwich. He also wonders if the ?King? of Hungry doesn't have a wife that could go to the kitchen and make hime one? When the ?King? of Hungry doesn't have a wife, the Prince-Bishop would like to suggest that the King is to marry his cousin, she is very capable at making sandwiches*. As a dowry the Prince-Bishop will grant the ?King? of Hungry a Herring sandwich, a local delicacy.


He also wonders if the ?King? has some Hungry Kids. The Prince-Bishop would like them to perform at his next banquet.

*The cousin of the Prince-Bishop, not the cousin of the King... she is terrible at making sandwiches we have been told.

Spoiler :

I will assume we start in 1356 and not in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Bull_of_1222

 

[Tyo]

Indeed

Plus if you look at the picture in the OP, you can figure which it is referring to even easier.

Will we be able to change governments as in the game?

 

[Tyo]

Haven't decided if it'll be done by tech, rp, or both yet.

 

[NedimNapoleon]

Is this going to start?

 

[Tyo]

Okay, unexpected biology troll. I got sick. Update may be delayed a week.

I want to start on a weekend, and it's impossible this week due to the above. So we're gonna have to wait one more week.
Sorry.

In light of our start year:

The Bishopric of Utrecht demands to have a core on the province to its east(don't know how it's called in EUIII).
Why, you ask? well in RL the Prince-Bishops of Utrecht controlled an area called 'Oversticht' (In Dutch the Bishopric of Utrecht was called 'Sticht Utrecht') The Prince-Bishop is aware that this area isn't represented on the map but he consideres the province to his east a worthy substitute.

[GamezRule]

The Kingdom of Bohemia would like to affirm it's awesomeness.

 

[BSmith1068]

The Kingdom of Quito wonders what all this noise is coming from across the great jungle.

 

[Optical]

Pommerania wonders who the Kingdom of Quito is and where they heard that name.

 

[SouthernKing]

The Hanseatic Cities of Lubeck, Bremen, and Hamburg would like to proclaim that they are more awesome than Bohemia.

 

[Robert Can't]

Scotland gets into a fight... Again.

 

[Tyo]

Okay, the game thread might actually begin today, entirely dependent on how much I wanna do the last two dozen or so countries.

 

[JohannaK]

yes!

 

[Magnive]

Can I take Japan? If not, I'd like to have Portugal

Edit: Japan as a Japanese nation, just give me Hosokawa if it is split like in D&T

Also, will every nation have to put an equal amount of research into the techs to tech up? Isn't this unfair to small nations?
