NES2 VI - Last Semblance of Order.

Oh Iggy, what a big mistake you made...

OK, Thlayli's claimed Spain, and all the good nations are gone. I'll lurk until someone quits as a good nation.

Enjoy. I'll expect the same of you next time Thlayli.
 
In other words, Kentharu, to get from one level to the next with size 3, you'll have to invest 3 eco points into it.

WHAT?!?!?!?! NOO!!! It's not like you don't know what will happen if Thlayli becomes Spain! He'll do something that reaps the fabric of Spanish Society completely destroying it as a bulkwark against France! :cry:

Amen. ;)
 
Sorry, but I'm sick of fighting Thlayli. :p

Although I never did have a chance to send military orders against him...

Meh.
 
“Check the pressure on those valves Orhan, keep it low.” Ahmed shouted over the whistles. He gripped the handle of the pressure lever, and began to pull it, moving it slowly inch by inch. “come on push harder, Mesa! Get over here and help me”

One of the many textile factory in Constantinople, now being run by Orhan, the owner of Steam Innovators Co. The take over had been smooth, though the workers were a bit scared of Orhan and his rather large company (considering his company was the second largest in the Ottoman Empire) , however, they had warmed up to him in the past 4 months, since he was the only owner who actually worked in the factories and knew anything about anything that had to do with steam. His father had been the one to start his company, after making an improved version of the steam engine that allowed it to haul twice as much for only half the coal.

“That’s ok, keep that pressure around that level for now, if it gets any higher, lower it by 1/3, and wait for it to stabilize then increase it by 1/5 every 3 minutes, it should stretch the pipes some more so we can take more heat and pressure in the main valves.”

“Mr. Orhan, someone is here to see you” a young boy said from behind him.

“Whats that? Ah yes he is here, good good, alright boys remember, 1/5 every 3 minutes” Orhan took off his gloves and whipped the sweat from his brow before opening the door that led out of the steam room. A gentleman in royal attire (only worn by high government officials) stood in front of him, he looked normal, except he wore a rather large top hate and held a can in his hand. Orhan smirked and held out his hand in greeting, the gentleman shook it firmly.

“Good Afternoon Mr. Orhan, how do you do” the man said with a rather strange accent.

“I’m fine, I assume you are here about the deal?”

“Indeed I am, but first let me introduce myself, I am Mehmed Ahmed of the Foreign Trade Relations Department. As you may already know Osman IV is giving grants to the major companies in the Ottoman Empire.”

“Indeed I am aware of that, come then, lets have a seat then” Orhan led the gentleman into his near by house (which wasn’t very big, but rather homely) and motioned to a seat on the porch. “so what are the details of this grant?”

“Well you will be given funds to help setup a national railroad system. Of course you will be working with other companies in the country.

“Of course” Orhan said with a smirk

“You and all the other companies shall meet on 13th April of this year at the Department of Transport. And Osman IV shall be there himself.”

“This is more than a national railroad system isn’t it” Orhan narrowed his eyes on Mehmed who only smirked.

“Good afternoon Mr Orhan, I expect to see you there on the 13th, preferably at 9:00am sharp if you please, again, good afternoon” the man took off his top hat and bowed low before straightening up and walking towards the main road.

“A rather strange man…”
 
1740.

The Danish navy is weak because of the clamouring of the Industrialists, who think that, since Denmark-Norway is a peaceful country, building a large navy is a waste of money. Besides, lots of older ships were scrapped because of their incessant demands.

Ok, and from what I've been able to read there was no Great Nordic War from 1700-1720 like in OTL. How is the Danish sentiment in Scania, Halland, Blekinge and Gotland which are traditionally Danish? Has there been a systematic extermination of the "Danishness" there as the Swedes actually did?
 
das, is my story ok? umm as in are steam engines around yet? you did say the industrial age had started, and it did start with steam machines right? (textile workshops and what not)

No, they didn't get around to it during the Protestant Empire and the Republic was more indecisive about minorities, so the Danes have a notable population there and even have a separatist party that supports the annexation of Skane by Denmark.

Yes, there are steam engines.
 
What the hell is NES2 B?

I meant to type NES2 C....

Sorry, but that's not much clearer...

The letter between "C" and "B" on the ordinary keyboard being what it is, I'd assume that:
a) You are drunk;
b) You have some other problems with aiming at your keyboard;
OR
c) You AREN'T talking about NES2 V.

:p

But anyway, yes, NES2 V.
