Orders from the Yukon
Upgrade Army Size and Education.
Expand along the Pacific coastline and down the Yukon River.
Just a little note, Whitehorse is a little ways down from the headwaters of the Yukon River. But don't change anything. The headwaters of the Yukon river are actually a better place for a nation to arise.
Story coming soon, if all goes well.

cities will be shown on the map once some exist, as at this point a urban structure has not really emerged in society.
In a land of great lakes, vast forests, and towering mountains, a many races have been born.
Many tribes resided, around the many lakes at the headwaters of the Yukon River. They were all fiercely territorial, and intensely competitive. These differences that kept these people separate and estranged for centuries.
But one man was born who would change all of this. One day, the infant boy followed his father off to a hunt, and became lost. He would have certainly died, alone in the snow, if it hadn't been for a woman from another tribe who found him and raised him as one of her own.
Named Ikayeh by his rescuers, the boy grew up strong, and by maturity he was one of the most respected hunters in the entire tribe.
But he was constantly harassed by his fellows for his unknown parentage, his lost past.
So Ikayeh left, and spent many years wandering through the wilds. Eventually, he returned back to civilization, rediscovering the very tribe he had been born into.
It had come across hard times. A great power struggle had claimed the lives of many and scattered the tribe. Now it stumbled leaderless towards a deadly winter.
Taking Ikayeh's arrival as an omen, the tribe accepted him as a leader. Ikayeh led his people on a long journey, to the tribe who had raised him in his youth.
He was also accepted by the other tribe, who were suffering as well. For a great plague had swept the region, and it was killing off many of the tribes. Knowing that unity under adversity was the only way to survive, Ikayeh joined the two tribes into one, and wed a woman from the tribe of his raising to cement the bond.
Ikayeh and his united tribes, calling themselves 'The Yukon', continued to journey around to the other devastated tribes, bringing them into the greater whole and spreading any excess food to those who were unable to gather it for themselve.
By the time winter had reached its height, Ikaeh had contacted every tribe in the region. All had been attracted to him like a magnet, believing him to be a gift from the gods. For wherever Ikaeh went, disease and suffering would miraculously come to an end, and the gifts he brought would help all recover from the terrible events of the previous year.
So with all of his followers, Ikaeh built a great settlement for all to weather the winter in. Protected from harsh winds by the mountains, and surrounded with abundant resources, this great place allowed the Yukonians, or Yukonners (there's still disagreement on the word) to spend a pleasant winter, and excellent summers from then on.
In the years that followed, it was determined by Ikaeh that the settlement would be the permanent home of the Yukon. He named the city Tagish, and the first permanent structures appeared there. While some people returned back to their tribes, they remained loyal Yukonners and spread the nation.
Ikaeh eventually wandered off again, leaving the rule of the Yukon to his son Tasaka. It is believed by his people that the goddess in the sky brought him back to a realm of heroes, to a home in the night sky.

All right, well i'm doing the update now. Enjoy the peace while you can for the update after this should be much fun.
-World Events-
Within the last hundred years much expansion has occured in all of the newly formed civilizations of the world. The one exception is of course Cuba, which has nowhere to expand to yet. This of course has resulted in several border conflicts and disputes, some of which may result in war.
In the northeast New Polakia and the Iroquois have run into some trouble with a militiant nation known as Michegan. Several raids have occured and numerous families and settlements have been destroyed on the new border.
To the south the Aztecs and the Queztal Confederation have also run into dispute, arguing over disputed land near the Yucatan peninsula. Raids have occured here as well.
-World Map-
-OOC-
More will begin happening next turn, i'm sure. For now please send orders and expect an update on Tuesday, or earlier if orders are sent in quickly again.

Do note that although the NES forum is very loose on the rules, spam should not be completely pointless.
*Reno slips away
Reno just has a larger tendency than the rest of us to report spam. 
And maybe it wasn't totally spammy. He might have been laughing evilly about his plans, giving us some warning to destroy him early.
And I just realized that I'm making a post critiquing spam. Kinda hypocritical, isn't it?
