Central America, eh? These will be Olmecs. Note, though, that they... are not very pleasant to play as, if only because you don't have horses and are in the Stone Age. That, and there are nasty barbarians out there. But if you're up to the challenge, sure thing.
 
Actually, seems like Texas Toast and MjM came in time as well.
 
Yes, Wednesday.

EDIT: A.k.a. tomorrow. So... nation descriptions and development plans, if any. Those without nation descriptions will be dropped.
 
Nation: Arghen Sein
Ruler: Lluk

Nation Background: Lluk the great barbarian crossed the frigid wastes of the polar ice cap and settles on the other side of the world. He took many pretty women to be his slaves while travelling through this otherworld and eventually settled down in a nestly valley between a wide river and the hilly canyons on the other side.
They had many, many, many, many, many, children and Lluk kidnapped an obscene horde of girls for orgies to make sure they would procreate and bring forth a grand horde of babies that would grow into rabid menfolk called barbarians by southern wussies. Then they would KEEEEEEEEEEELL anyone who says things like 'there is no honor' or 'diplomacy'.

What do you mean with development plans?
 
Uh, Toteone, I don't quite understand where are you supposed to be started... Oh, and could you elaborate more on your nation itself?

tossi, well, if you want, you could send some sorts of (brief) instructions about how your nation is supposed to develop; it might or might not be carried out, depending on the circumstances.
 
Mohenjo-daro
On the fertile soils of the Indus Valley, a civilization has been founded. Taken literally, Mohenjo-daro means "Mound of the Dead" but the streets are alive with commerce and culture. The capital is a technological marvel of antiquity and trade flourishes with local city-states. A medium sized military has been raised to protect trade interests...
 
das - So do you prefer a more vague story-esque thang like what I did two pages back or would you prefer nice dry things which tell what I want to do? *stupid question but I thought I might as well ask. Was worried that my story was a bit vague*
 
Phoenician Development Plans:

-explore the shores of the mediterran sea with my ships and etablish small trade stations at the coasts of foreign lands.
-etablish control over all of Canaan
-settle Cyprus
-get unbelievable rich
 
To Sparta
From Balkan Federation

We are up for peace and trade,but we need an updated map from our god Polarberum for borders.

End of diplo

Descr:Balkan Federation is a tight Federation of all Balkan people,all people are equal that is if they arent slaves for the nobles.The soil is of high quality and crops do well,allowing a large population.
 
BananaLee - as long as I manage to actually get some general information over what sort of a nation you are trying to do, any form is acceptable, a development plan is not mandatory, but good stories are likely to help out your nation somewhat.
 
No diplo yet...

And the Balkan Federation - as already said - doesn't sound very ancient. For one thing, it was only called Balkans after mid-19th century.
 
Umm okay how about Illyrian federation?
 
Umm okay how about Illyrian federation?

Illyria is rather northern... Why not Pindusian? Or Macedonnian (sorry, sorry)?
 
Yeah, das, is my thing on Rome all wrong? I did it from memory...probably forgot a lot of stuff.

Roman Plans:
Try and stay where we are, go further along the Latin coast towards Capua and north towards Pisae. Don't venture much into the sea, mine silver for money, wonderful money. Support any established civilian colonies with our military.
 
Macedonnian Federation will be okay :)

Plans:
INVENT IRON!
Mine stuff as much as I can.
Expand in all directions.
Build new setllements on rivers.
Educate people,grow economy.
Trade with other nations.
Grow a medium-sized army.
 
Minoan Crete

Early Minoan saw the slow rise of the culture from a neolithic state with the importation of metals, the tentative use of bronze, and the appearance of a hieroglyphic writing.

In the Middle Minoan period the great palaces appeared at Knossos and Phaestus: a pictographic script was used, ceramics, ivory carving, and metalworking reached their peak.

The Minoans had their own language, though little is known about it. It was written in a number of different scripts over the centuries.

Development Plans

- Establish controll over the entire of Crete and it's neightboring islands, plus Cyprus.

- Establish trade with the other peoples of the Eastern Mediterranean.

- Build the biggest navy on the whole of East Med.

- And grow rich with trade. ;)
 
I might remove the nasty pieces later, but it does give this horrible nation a feeling of 'Argheeen Sein!' and that is sort of the purpose, although Arghen Sein is philo-morically a pointless nation.
Eeeeh,
well don't take it seriously

'tis be a disturbed mind just having fun

Nation: Arghen Sein
Ruler: Lluk

Nation Background: Lluk the great barbarian crossed the frigid wastes of the polar ice cap and settles on the other side of the world. He took many pretty women to be his slaves while travelling through this otherworld and eventually settled down in a nestly valley between a wide river and the hilly canyons on the other side.
They had many, many, many, many, many, children and Lluk kidnapped an obscene horde of girls for orgies to make sure they would procreate and bring forth a grand horde of babies that would grow into rabid menfolk called barbarians by southern wussies. Then they would KEEEEEEEEEEELL anyone who says things like 'there is no honor' or 'diplomacy'.

Spitsbergen... please. That'd be the island north of Norway.

And as for society, Lluk's grandchildren quickly engaged in much incestous activity (there were no other people around) before they finally started building ships to go further south and come unto their manifest destiny.
This means that they are raiders who fish, raid, farm a little, raid, kill women, rape men, eat **** when they're out of food, drink blood, blackmail others, kill, bash heads in... a simple chaotic evil society I would believe with a very strong sense of purpose (to do whatever the heck they feel like at the moment).
Our people have very high fertility ratings (despite the incest Lluk's seed 'n legacy (btw. he's still alive) was very potent DNA and whatever, pregnancy is 8 months and our people grow up rather fast (almost like orcs) with men achieving their physical prime at 18 and women at 16.

So it's a Viking society manifest, except there's more debauchery then a Greek philosopher could dream off and there's more hack and less law and people do whatever they like!
