Imperium Offtopicum IV: Third's the Charm?

[Mathalamus]

when you claim the Mecca region ill ship over some new security items, a plane monitoring system. and we will give you several thousand AA guns. manufactured in Constantinople of course.

we don't have cargo ships, so ill send the equipment to Jeddah by Destroyers or frigates.

Since I can, I officially claim Ile-de-France and Burgundy If it's OK to claim two small provinces on a second turn, and I officially move my capital from Quebec city to Paris. On a separate note I'd like to propose the treaty of Nantes which basically is a guarantee that signatories won't make claims into other signatories core territory.

hard to define the core territory. the core territory may not even be the capital region.

If there are no objections, I claim Central Serbia and Vojodina (basically, the whole of Serbia.)

 

[civplayah]

I would like Al Madīnah and Makkah, please.

 

[remake20]

I also take the SW corner of Canada.

That's part of the point, we will have to state what we're aiming for, a good example would be that I consider my core territory to be modern metropolitan France as for you I don't know what your specifically aiming to build with a independent Greece and Kosovo/Serbia, perhaps you can expand into Asia and North Africa.

For my second round of claims, I shall be taking Northern Baja California

British troops roll into Kent and, if at all possible, East Sussex.

cant you start with bejing? usually the first territory you have will be your capital territory.

 

[Mad Man]

Tibet(south west) or Xinjiang(North west)?

ok, make it beejing instead. what difference does it make

 

[Thorvald of Lym]

In reality, none.

I'll give you a darker orange, since I'm orange already.

 

[DroopyTofu]

It doesn't make a difference. You can take whatever you want

As for my second round claims, I'd like Georgia, and if I'm allowed, North Carolina. I also set up a temporary capital in Charleston, SC.

The Federation is preparing a mass mobilisation of troops, all in the hopes of federalising the former Italian regions of Umbria and Tuscany. The fully-expanded Federation would look like the above picture.

Doubling the state's size does seem like an enormous undertaking, but this is in response to other powers also seizing great swaths of territory.

hey a question. did we colonize the new earth at our starting locations (and lost the technology on purpose) or did we rebel from our former countries?

Byzantium asks Rome for a full alliance.

I myself run on the idea that there was a great Cataclysm that destroyed all the governments of the world(as seen in my posts proposing treaties with Byzantium and Greece), with various cities turning into city-states afterward and working to rebuild their former nations...

...and perhaps more.

Byzantium asks Rome for a full alliance.

The Federation is very happy to hear of such an offer, however, it must politely decline for now; there seems to be great hostility towards Byzantium, and the world is currently very unstable, with expansions and revolutions making things difficult to assess.

The Federation, however, will keep the offer on the table for the future. Once the world's political climate stabilises, the Federation will begin to pick and choose its allies, and the Byzantines may be one of them.

As a compensation for this rejection, the Federation reminds the Byzantines that they too should be trying to claim more territory to ensure they do not fall behind.

I've updated my country bio on my first post.

Here's a copy of it for those too lazy to go back to the 1st page.

After the United States split after the <insert whyever you think the US broke apart>, South Carolina quickly set itself up as independent, following the spirit it had when it declared independence from Britian, and later from the United States in the 1860's. It moved it's capital from Columbus th Charleston, and invited all southern states to join it. Quickly, Georgia and North Carolina decided to band together with SC and form the New Confederate States of America. Though people in Atlanta and Charlotte disagree, the capital remained Charleston, for now.

Population(to be updated as the Confederacy grows): 23,771,337 (Sum of all the current state populations)
Capital: Charleston

Military: Fairly good navy, with very strong coast guard. Army is mid-level, though there is much focus on expanding the army in the world of anarchy. The airforce is large enough to defend the lands that ask the NCSA for protection, but not very helpful on the offensive.

NO SLAVERY: The NCSA has learned from the mistakes of its predecessor and does not use slavery

Government: Much like the American system, but with more power for the states' rights and less government control

Economy: Cities such as Atlanta and Charlotte are major financial and business districts. There is some manufacturing and come natural resources, though not abundant. Many rural areas are still agrarian and backwards. The government is working on developing these regions

Religion: Though there is free religion, 98% of the population is Christian.

Foreign Policy: The NCSA will remain neutral in most conflicts, unless an ally is involved. Then, it is fiercly loyal to its friends
