From: The Empire of Abyssinia
To: The Kingdom of Portugal
We would like to extend a hand of peace to our brothers in Christ, the Kingdom of Portugal. Taking into account our nations' history of cooperation, I propose an alliance between our nations in which the Empire of Abyssinia will support the growth of the Portuguese Empire if the Kingdom of Portgual supports Abyssinia's own ambitions.

In Which We Meet the Bonheurs
Paris - 1740
Monsieur Bonheur is now an old man. For the past 40 years he has lived in and operated a lodging house named La Maison de Beaumont, or the House of the Beautiful Hill. The House does not really lie on beautiful hill, and is a rather ordinary street. M. Bonheur, however, believes the name gives the place a flair, and attributes his moderate success to this appealing title. It resides on the outskirts of Paris, in what we call the Latin Quarter, on the Rue de Patay. It has served him well, and here he lives with his family - a wife, two daughters, and a son.
The son, the oldest, is named Jean Bonheur, after his father and the daughters are named Valerie and Louisine, with Louisine being the oldest of the two. His wife, named Ursule, is a woman of steely determination and a maternal conviction and it is she who is responsible for the natural good nature of her children and her husband. Valerie and Louisine are both kind girls, and each helps their mother with the job of keeping up the lodging house while they attend school during the day. Education, in Ursule's opinion (her opinions being as strong as her faith in god) is of paramount importance. Jean at age 18, meanwhile, is a rebel to his parents yet a patriot to his country, and eagerly wishes to join the army. Infact, this is where we meet the Bonheur family, and it is at this hour that Jean approaches both his parents in their kitchen - his mother preparing a meal and his father balancing the checks.
"Father, I wish to join the Army."
His father, being the man that he is, was pleased.
"Sure son, the army is a noble place for a young man such as you. Join and be happy and I shall support you."
His mother did not look up from her stew but said simply, and calmly -
"There will be no such talk in this house. The army is not a fine place for a young man and you are wrong to think so. What if you are killed? A poor old lady such as me cannot stand that burden. And what of your sisters? No, there will be no mention of the Army in this house."
This, however, simply infuriated Jean to the point that he declared that he would enlist no matter what, and stormed out of La Maison de Beaumont with a pained expression on his face.
M. Bonheur merely shrugged, seeing nothing wrong with the Army and voicing his opinions thusly.
Mme Bonheur still did not look up from her stew, said simply "There will be no talk of the army in this house.", and would not talk to her husband for a week. Valerie and Louisine, meanwhile, continued their life as usual.

So, consider Krakow open. I bequeath it to Stalin006. I'm really looking for something more relaxing after taking such a long leave... IC:
Kingdom of Segu
Capital: Segou
Ruler: ? / Symphony D.
Government: Absolute Monarchy
Centralization: Tight Federation
Tech. Level: Late Enlightened Age
Army (Training): 10 divisions (Tolerable)
Navy (Training): None yet
Economy: Not Bad (+1)
Size (points required): Small (1)
Leadership (Military/Civilian): Tolerable/Barely Tolerable
Infrastructure: Pathetic
Education: Illiterate
Living Standards: Very Low
Culture: Strongly Cultured
Confidence: Admiring
Projects:
Nation Background: The Bambara peoples of Segu have already created and destroyed several kingdoms when in 1712 Mamari Kulibali "the Commander" took over. Mamari formed one of the best and most modern Black African armies yet to exist and with it defeated all his enemies, stretching the empire to its current size. Recently there has been a comparative rise of commerce with France.
OOC: That should do. Last change! I swear.

I believe Contempt claimed the Kingdom of Segu
From Afghan Khanate
To the Kingdom of Portugal
Let us reaffirm our close ties with a defensive alliance. Surely this will aid us both in the Middle East.

OOC: It's been demonstrated numerous times in this thread already that reservations mean nothing. But if he really wants it, I'd be content to sit this one out and watch since I didn't get to see NES2 V.

Hey das, why does England own Easter Island?

The Catholics lost most of Germany, Poland and Hungary, plus some influence in France, but gained the priceless gem of Abyssinia. And some ground in England, too. Oh, and if that's not enough, they're rather more united amongst each other in general, apart from the French and their allies.
He did, just after Symphony took Sweden (which he wanted for himself).

The French forgot to take it from them when they found it.
Actually, that does work - they DO need to send the most dangerous political prisoners somewhere, and the Tower was already destroyed during the Third English Civil War (in its beginning, in fact).

OOC: Well... somebody else took Sweden, and I relinquished Krakow to Stalin, so I suppose Segu is Contempt's then. I suppose I shall merely sit this one out and watch. Good hunting gentlemen.

how does the size stat work das... i know im dumb but please, you know explain for me

Read rules. If you still didn't get it... read rules again. Its all there somewhere.
But if you really want me to explain it, the size depends on the amount of territory you control. The more territory, the harder it is to grow stuff like infrastructure and education, because there's more roads to build and more people to... educate, I suppose. For a nation with a size that demands 2 eco. points, you will have to invest 2 eco. points into education for it to grow a level, rather than 1 for a smaller nation.

The size stat determines the amount of eco. points you should invest into a misc. stat in order for it to grow one level.
