Imperium Offtopicum II: Chronological Order is For Chumps!

[Tani Coyote]

For reference, any state bigger than New England - Maine costs 2 points. So, for everybody, that's the United States East of New York, minus Maine, the most Northeastern state.

Distance penalty doesn't apply based on where your capital is...

Expenses cap at 5-6 points, meaning you'd only get one territory.

I'd say the states in the North cost 4, NOT including distance penalty; however, since it caps at 5, you'd still be able to get one in a single turn. That's unless your border expands toward them, in which case you can still have one point to spend...

From that, I'd say you spent 5 of 6 points.

I see you've been planning on expanding south. That's fine with me, but I think that if you expand further south you'll box me in. You've been warned.

From a nation that claims to represent Tibet, and has large amounts of land in France, proving that you are just yet another European imperialist trying to divide up China. Who else is involved? Spain? Germany? Italy?!?

Besides, Tibet doesn't include the Chinese eastern seaboard, so what right do you have to that land, other than "you're box me in", which frankly is not true.

What, I'm supposed to take the few historical Tibetan territories and be content with little land? And, you're first point is not valid. I'm not a European imperialist colonizing Asia. I'm an Asian imperialist colonizing Europe- my capital is in Tibet. Koguryo never included as much land as you have now, but I'm not throwing a fit over it. By dividing land I am trying to prevent conflict. The ideas proposed are suggestions, they're not set in stone.

Byzantine news

the Enterprise is 16% done.

also on the order of the Emperor, nuclear reactors across the country have being undergoing construction, and finally, the Emperor has requested that the space port in french Guiana be activated and send out unmanned satellites if need be.

... there are rumors that Constantinople is planning to build a new, larger International Space station.

A am accepting the numerous defensive pacts, trade agreements, and OBs. However, due to our completely opposing governments, I do not think an alliance would be a good idea ATM with N. Korea. Sorry!

If I claimed too much (I probably did, I don't completely understand the point system yet ), start getting rid of my eastern territories first. Thanks!

EDIT: Darn, Persia claimed some of the land I tried to claim.

New Claims:

 

[civplayah]

MathNerd, would you like a defensive pact, trade agreement, and/or open borders?

 

[ZeletDude]

@ Tibet;
All we want in France is the Coast to connect our claims in North Italy to Catalonia in Spain
But you can have anything you want.

 

[civplayah]

The Southern coast? Alright.

 

[MathNerd]

Yes, I will accept all three requests.

Also, India's economy is booming. GDP is currently at $1.16 trillion (US dollars), and some experts are predicting a 10% growth rate in the Indian economy over the coming year. The technology sector particularly is expected to double in just 3 years!

A company, Private Space Exploration, Inc., in the TRI (Technological Republic of India) recently released the first private spacecraft. It can currently be pre-bought at a measly $500,000 and will be available in just 6 months.

The stock of PSE has gone up 12% since the initial announcement of this plan, and over 1000 orders have already been placed.

 

[civplayah]

Yes, I will accept all three requests.

Wonderful!

Why exclude me? Just because I'm Tibetan doesn't mean I don't have power in Europe.

We will not accept either until we have the land that is rightfully ours.

 

[Mathalamus]

@ European Nations: (Excluding Tibet..)
We would like to propose trade pacts and non agression pacts with all European nations.

Byzantium agrees to both.

I have a proposal...

The Levantine Republic invites the Byzantine Republic, the Kingdom of North Italy, the United Nation of Italy and its Colonies, the Pharoahate of the Nile, Macedon and Spain to from the Mediterrean Alliance and Treaty Organization (MATO). MATO will form a forum for cultural and economic exchange. Its members shall form a trade bloc and shall pledge to defend each other from aggression.

We are willing to move past our prior disagreements and offer a trade agreement to both of your nations. In an attempt to settle the tension, we also offer you a Non Agression Pact.

The Angevin Empire claims five provinces in Scotland, Ireland and northern France, as per its recent settlement plans and formally lays its ancestral claim to the Rock of Gibraltar, as already mentioned. The Shetlands, Orknies and Iceland continue to be maintained in the Angevin sphere of influence.
