"Game not Found"

[Gem Hound]

Cough cough North American Hegemony cough cough.

EDIT: Makes sense. The USA has basically outlawed their own military to such an extent, that a private one steps in.

No one said the USA Expanded West. Cough Cough

Liberté de France launches an all-out behind-the-lines attack, wiping out most of the industry in Northern and Eastern Spain.

 

[Deusselkerr]

cough cough I said all North America except Mexico cough cough

Small Dick Mann resigns from office after being shot in the groin again,with the bullet narrowly avoiding his privates; he is also humiliated by the events in the West, and many called for his exit from office. "Big" William Dickinson, the conservative VP (the precedent of the Philadelphia Convention was never overturned) takes office. He conscripts thousands of fit men into the military, and rations food because of the sudden loss of foodstuffs form Western farms, especially sugar from California. Riots were planned for because of the sudden lack of sweets to satisfy the obese masses, but the majority found the effort to get up and run the streets to be too great an exertion.

Big Willie Dickinson realizes he cannot fight of the Deseret people at this time, and refuses to recognize their rebel status or legitimate status until his conscripts are trained, and weapons of war manufactured.

The muslim Mughal empire controls all of hindustan, south of the great Himalaya ranges. The sultan of Hindustan, Prince Byatulla, wants to have a populace that are Muslim and no other religions are acceptable. Cruel conversion of Hindus in the mainland follows.Shipping lines and maritime trade routes have been established with several other countries in the South East.

In the north however, beyond the land of the five rivers exists the nomads, wild men of the mountains that would come down from their mountainous abode, to raid the men of the plains. Draped in "red turbans" these men have made a name of themselves at cruel but efficient raiders.

Depends what constitutes 'Mexico' in this timeline.

Mexico might well be at 1830s borders.

Wasn't Mexico part of some Mayaincatec Republic, on account of the whole pyramid thing? At least, Tenochtitlan should be.

In the Caribbean, every island is independent. Every single one. This arose from a particularly interesting document when the New World was first discovered. The European powers, each knowing the others would race for the resources and riches of the area, signed an agreement which allowed each nation only one island in the Caribbean. At the time, it was unknown that Cuba and Hispaniola were larger than the rest, so Portugal and France, respectively, lucked out. The fact that this agreement resulted in several islands remaining unclaimed after all the major powers divided the islands amongst themselves has resulted in some unlikely colonizers, including the Mayaincatec Republic, Sweden, the Holy Russian Empire, and a band of lost Inuit. When the islands started fighting for independence, the one-island rule was deemed to apply to the new nations as well.

Southern Mexico at least, who knows what's happening in Northern Mexico.

The Hotinnosavannah League manages to keep the United States at the east of the Mississippi River.

I'm call for nintz to adjudicate North America.

 

[Lambda Ignaceae]

We gonna get another map soon?

 

[thomas.berubeg]

I'm call for nintz to adjudicate North America.

Seconded

 

[Eltain]

Calling for the Byzantine Emperor's birth certificate to be made public and distributed at every street corner in the empire, a radical Greek group bombs the royal palace in Constantinople, killing hundreds.

 

[Nintz]

Will read thread and adjucate tomorrow.

At friend's house.

 

[christos200]

Christos, however, uses the secret police to discover the terrorists and then he executes them in public.

 

[Terrance888]

He knows secretly though, that the terrorists he executed were scapegoats and half of the group is still at large.

 

[spryllino]

and that some of the people in the secret police are also terrorists, and that the public execution made most of the audience more sympathetic with the terrorist cause.

 

[Lambda Ignaceae]

botched public execution. The "terrorist" screaming out on live television his innocence, and then coughing up blood before his convulsions ceased has put serious pressure on the government.

 

[Nintz]

OOC: so tempted to lead a penguin revolution out of antartica. not sure if that would be a little to crazy..
err, if it is permited, dibs.

If you can come up with a semi-plausible way for this to work, be my guest.

Adjudication on N. America:

U.S.A. controls most of the East Coast, more so than in OTL. They control the Toronto region as well as Michigan. They haven't managed to push farther west, so losing the west coast states can't happen.

@mythmonster2 - Thanks. Now I have to come up with another 30 colors for the map.

Quebec is a broken nation of feuding states, who only unite to fight off the advances of Anglophone provinces. Together, they are unbeatable, but only dire threat ever pushes them together, as most of the Quebecois Kings hate each other.

 

[Terrance888]

Most of them are backed by American Money anyways.

 

[Gem Hound]

Where does American money come from? Sources indicate that America is economically dominated by Byzantine and Spanish merchants. Sources also indicate that America owes both these states a large sum of money.
