Revolution Imperium Offtopicum II
- Thread starter Sonereal

It makes more sense if you realize, that in my naivete, I had figured the nation was formed around 1865-1870 or so. I was not aware that the PoD was post WW2 and the current time was the 1970's.
Honestly, I never shed a thought to what year it was, I just saw the picture in the OP and thought around the mid-19th century to very early 20th.
I'll make a new nation from the scraps of a Colonial European power's claims in Africa if it's too much out of the correct timeline. Although nobody said this little ASB nation couldn't have prospered into this time period.
The only real issues with the formation of a Southern government in exile in Africa are:
1. Resistance from local blacks, who would obviously not be very friendly to Southern ways.
2. Resistance from European Powers in the area, who would not want a new player on the block.
3. The biggest issue, population. Even a "sizable" exodus would not give the Confederates nearly enough manpower to support a new nation, escpecially not on a whole new continent. Although this could account for why they're still so small in the 70's.
Other than that, why is it so ridiculous? There was a war over the rights Southerners thought were being infringed upon. It's not like there's no die-hards in the South willing to ship out once they start losing.
Do we seriously have to keep arguing about this? It hasn't even started yet!
Well Rev 1 set the stage for this game, so, yeah, you probably wouldn't be around all that time, considering Math used to own the place you founded your nation.
Anyway, if we have super nukes, why'd you think we were in the 40's?

I have a fun idea, maybe the confederates in Africa are undead.
And they all wear Nazi Uniforms while they ride unicorns into battle while screaming in Elvish while firing Gatling Lasers, turning the land bright pink as they fly over it.
Because we all know unicorns can fly.

I would still like to get a summary of the TL's events and a map showing all present claims so I can make a new nation, since this one's getting a lot of flak.

im dropping out of this game. lost interest.
Is my utterly impossible nation getting the OK or am I going to have to make a new one? Hard to do diplomacy if you don't exist.
I does want mapz.

I want mutual Defencive agreements and free trade from both of you.
We did not forget this! We accept such an offer!
