StJNES4: The Normal Story NES

[naervod]

Emporer Cerveza took a quick swig of beer and relaxed in his stone home, the largest in all of Iberia. Then, a messenger ran up.

"Señor, we have reports of natives calling themselves the Basques that are resisting our rule! What shall I tell General Piojo to do?"

"Our Hombres de Guerra should deal with them easily, but add more men to the army just to make sure."

"Very well sir."

The messenger departed and left Emporer Cerveza wondering what to do about those pesky Basques. He decided to send them a proposal:

"His Majesty the Emporer of Spain wishes for a peaceful settlement of this dispute. The Spanish Empire is much more organized and stronger than the Basques, so we advise you accept our proposal. All Basque lands are to be separated into provinces governed by Basque and Spanish governors, appointed by a council of both Basques and Spaniards. All landowners will get to keep and run their private property. All Basques will receive the responsibilities of Spanish citizenship and shall be subject to taxation no more than what ordinary Spanish citizens have to pay. Laws will be enacted to protect the native culture of the Basques and to protect against discrimination.

Signed,
Emperor Juan Cerveza

ORDERS:
Contine expansion into Iberia with 1/3 of army, using force if the Basques reject the proposal
Use 1/3 of the army to keep the peace at home.
1/3 of the navy shall be used to ferry 1/3 of the army across the Straits of Gibraltar and into Northwestern Africa, where the town of Ceuta will be built
1/3 of the navy is to be in the Biscay area and the other 1/3 is to be in the West Med.

Start recruiting for the army (upgrade army size)

Religion. Although Azale thought the idea was a crock, his advisors kept on saying it would unify his people. They said,"If all of our peple had one strong connection, it would strenghthen our military, economy,etc...". Didn't they think their people were united already? As he thought this, he walked down his great stone walls, preparing to make a speech, that as far as the advisors knew, would be about instituting religion. General Azale had something else in mind.
General Azale flung open the massive stone doors, and there awaited over 13000 of his people. The more he said it, his people sounded much better than subjects,for his plan. "Good Evening,my people, today I have called as many of you as I can to announce a very different change in our goverment." as he said that he could hear people slightly holding their breath."I have devised a plan, a plan that will unite this already great land" as he glanced at his advisors, one give a thumbs up while another appeared to slap hands with another advisor" My plan is called
Socialism "

This does not mean that I want to be communist yet. I am a Socialist Tribal Confedracy. Is that okay? Or is it to advanced?

Orders:

continue expanding

continue Statue of Wings

increase military

 

[EQandcivfanatic]

The growing Floridian Empire's religion revolved around human sacrifice. When at war, prisoners of war were sacrificed. DUring peace it was considered a great honor to volunteer for the sacrifice as it meant an instant trip to the afterlife to be the gods themselves. During times of war, such as against the nearby Seminoles, or times of peace the ones captured or volunteered were sacrificed on the flat top of the only stone building in Florida, just south of Orlando, the Epcot.

Using all of the stone that could be located in the area and occasionally limestone dug from below the earth, The Epoct was domed shaped, like a upside down bowl. Built through the Dome's north side was a giant stairway leading to the flat top where sacrifies took place.

This religion brought unity to the inummerable Florida people. the 100,000 men plus women and children of Florida were all united and ready to expand further into the unknown.

ORDERS

Develop bow and arrow (spend whole economy on this)
Expand south and west but with an emphasis on filling the penninsula. When expanding replace local tribes with Floridians.

OOC: I really don't see how a bow and arrow could be much use in the swamps and woods of Florida that were all that existed in this time, but whatever.

 

[SKILORD]

Georgia will continue current expansion with an emphasis on bnuilding the army and qonquering stuff.

 

[SKILORD]

Georgia's religion is Called Paganism. Wee especially like the war god... whose name I forget..... because we are a bit millitaristic.

 

[Jason The King]

Azale, Tribal Socialism is fine, but don't expect it to work very well. It has been studied that socialism only works good in small communities, and so once your civilization flourishes, it will have problems.

EQandCivfanatic: Your right, the bow does not have much effect against you.

IC:

The stone home in which the emperor sat in was growing old. He needed a new home, a palace for himself. Immedietly he sent out his workers to begin to clear a new area for a larger, more magnificent palace then his first. He would call the castle itself Berlin.

The Teutons were growing in size rapidly, conquering all who stood in their way. However, the small band of Aryans were determined to halt the prosperity of the Teuton. The Emperor decided the Aryans needed to be destroyed, and will do so to make sure it happens.

ORDERS (I will post here for all to see)
Expand army
Send 3/4 of army to destroy the Aryans
The last of army is to expand east.

[EQandcivfanatic]

The Floridians, though they did at first research the bows and arrows that the hostile Seminole tribes used, they realized that a far more effective weapon would be organization in battle and a strong chain of command in the military. Below is a chain of command for the Floridian army.

Organization of army (from smallest section to largest)

notabat - consists of 30 men, usually armed with wooden spears and large oval shaped shields.

notareg- consists of 4 notabats

notadivi- consists of 4 notaregs

notacor- consists of 4 notadivis

There are currently 2 notacor in the Floridian army. As time passes the number of men increase but the organization stays the same.

NEW ORDERS

train army to be superior or if it starts at farmers, trained.
expand west, but have emphasis on filling the penninsula.

[Kennelly]

Lord Nan Er had been the victor of a Choson-intern civil war.His tribe,the Pai,were now the most powerful of the Choson tribes and therefore were allowed to send 10 warriors to the Choson council while each other of the 7 tribes only could send 1,therfore Chosons always had majority (and more weapons).
The Choson religion revolved around the ancestors and their great deeds,therefore every hut had a little mud hill beside it to worship the ancestors of its inhabitants.To worship all Choson ancestors together Nan Er would construct the biggest of all mud hills.

Orders:
-use canoes to travel rivers and lakes to establish contacts and trade with other tribes,so they can be integrated more smoothly

The Holy Land of Israel

Shamen gathered around the main fire. Chief Priest Estaclies showed the tribal leaders the new religous book the Torah. A list of God's laws and rules. Puglover the Great approved of the writing. Then, two men walked into the cave. They were forgieners. Surprised that there were other nations, Puglover the Great was curious. He asked them if they wanted to join together as friends and neighbors. Meanwhile, villagers continued to sell fine goods at the local baazars. The army also discovered the Bow and Arrow and employed it in hunting and tribal warfare. Scientists were studying a strange rock. They called it Copper.

- Adopt Judiasim (sp?) as the state religon

- Expand (just a tad)

eq, what if I make each province have their own little government (made by the people), so the worker output is increased. If what you said is true, how did the USSR last so long? If socialism won't work, switch to just Atheism.

 

[Warman17]

The king of Sumer was approched by 3 messangers. Each with a differnt mesage. The first was a report from the General of the Northern Army. He reported that that the Babalonians and Assyrians had banded together. The Sumerian king was amazed at this. The babalonians and assyrains had been rivels for years. The Sumerian King believed that Assyria would be glad Babylon would be conqured. The babvylonians must have persuaded them some how.

The second messenger was reporting of strangers that the western outposts met. They were reported from two far away lands to the west, they were Isreal and Egypt. The two nations were reported powerful but the Sumerian King dismissed the messenger.

The last one was a messenger from the Grand priest of Sumer. He reported the people were losing touch to their religon. The many small temples did not attract anyone. The people still believed but they were not helping the priests at all. As a result the Sumerian king wanted a Grand Ziggurat to be built in Ur. It would be the larest and most magnificant structure in the world.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Religion:

Sumerian

Based on many gods. But the 4 main gods are:

An: God of Heaven
Ki: God of Earth
Enlil: God of Air
Enki: God of Sea

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Grand Ziggurat:

The Grand Ziggurat was to be a grand Temple. It looks much like the RL step pyrimids in Central America. It does have many differnces. It was much wider and at the most 150 feet tall. It was to be a place where priests and people would congragate to pray to their Sumerian Gods.


Effects:
Confidence Grows
Expand my Culture and Religousness

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Orders:

Grow Army in threat of Babylon-Assyrian attack
Begin construction of The Grand Ziggurat in Ur
Open trade with Egypt

OOC: You do not have my Ki Soldier under UUs

[Warman17]

The king was distered in his sleep by a messenger. He was from Egypt. The man had travled hundreads of miles for a simple sentence, but an importent one. Unfortuenetly for 5 days and nights no one knew what the man was saying. Then a man from the Arabian desert approuched the kiing. He knew a little Egyption. The message was then translated "I ask to make a gold X freindship." The king then took the message as in trade so he prepared a message in Egyption. Unfortuently it wouldn't be very good.

To Egypt:

Sumer agrees to gold frienship we bring gold and goods.
