Principia Moderni (Map Game)

Principia Moderni, or "The Beginning of the Modern" in Late Latin, is a map game beginning in the final days of the Middle Ages in Europe, and the early days of the Ming dynasty in China--1420 C. E...The House of Hohenzollern have become the Electorates of Brandenburg--though most of the power in the Holy Roman Empire still lies with the Habsburgs, Joan of Arc has defeated the English at Orleans, the city of Tenochtitlan is founded by the Aztecs, the Timurid Empire has united Central and West Asia, and the Yongle Emperor sends out Zheng He to voyage westwards. It is a turbulent era; in other words, an era of change; an era in which power is cemented.

They condemns the Onguayal for being a religiously oppressive, warmongering nation with no care for how any non-Onguayali people wish to govern their lives. All members of the Sovereignty Defense League are required to send military aid to help Fjordlaand against Bharat or they will be in violation of the treaty and ejected from the organization. Currently, Denmark, Wales, and Hungary are other player nations in this organization (unless I missed someone else joining)

It immediately asks for an formal alliance with Eetoria, as it doesn't want any conflicts with them.

 * Foreign Minister Utsuho Niemelä of the Imperial Confederation of Saigyō agrees and begins to restore friendly relations with Australia.
 * The Commonwealth of Eetoria and Ngainkeha accept the alliance with their new Australian neighbours.

 * Brythonic Commonwealth also releases to RUSSIA and DENMARK ONLY plans for a weaponization platform in space scheduled to begin research in 1964.
 * In the post of China he already stated that the Chinese man was the first man in space. You can't contradict what people have already posted. 
 * 'Yes we can. We'll simply state that they were mistaken.'
 * Hey my original post had the parliament be angry and move Vostok one forward to march 12th instead of April 12th. I just thought that we had reached an agreement before that a Dane would be the first in space.
 * China still beats us if we put it in March, Lx.
 * The Brythonic Commonwealth makes plans to send the astronaut Leon Willis into space where he will remain for two weeks before returning to Earth. Orange computers releases a new Operating System called Orange I that is commandline based, but is faster than previous versions.

An envoy is sent to Flanders, and Alsatia to establish diplomatic ties and an offer of alliance(somebody do a random.org please)
 * I do not understand the current situation. I explicitly called the first man in space and Crim agreed to let me have it. Like Russia with the nuke I was going to launch a man for Russia Wales and Denmark. Gone back on his word Crim has. Like this Yoda does not.
 * China got their man in space...I panicked and added the space part after my edit conflict... I didn't want others superseding the Danish-Russian-Welsh space program,..names can be changed...quite easily...just name the first cosmonaut/astronaut and it shall be done
 * No word was given and the agreement was conditional. You made it clear that my side of the deal wasn't happening.
 * OK then. Giving the date of your launch proved fatal for your launched as we beat you.
 * Did you just edit Lx's turn?
 * Actually, since he gave that his guy was the first in space, you can't say you beat China. He posted first and explicitly said his man was first. Furthermore, you can't "hear about the Chinese Space program and move your program back to January 1" all on January 1, as you would only control this year, not last year. China won, stop whining about it.
 * It was on the 13th. Not the first.
 * Hey my original post had the parliament be angry and move Vostok one forward to march 12th instead of April 12th. I just thought that we had reached an agreement before that a Dane would be the first in space.
 * I called dibs on it, so I don't see why we're having this argument in the first place.
 * Australia signs a military alliance agreement with Denmark. Meanwhile, Australia continues to industrialize. It also founds the Australian Defence Force . Michael Salzman(german-british) is assigned to be the Chief of Army, and is waiting for the Australian forces to come back from fighting with Bharat, which is, as they hope, being the last time they fight for a country which was ruling their motherland for more than half century.


 * Finland continues to build up its military, build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation. Empress Orvokki Komeiji continues to, proudly, sends more supplies to help Onguayal. Sonja Komeiji retires from singing, and gets very angered by her sisters actions, so, she decides to do something about it. One night, Sonja Komeiji enters the Tsuyukusa Eastern Palace, and begins to look for her sister, but then runs into a kitten. She stops to inspect the kitten, but soon some cats appear down the hall. Soon the cats begin to run towards her, however, Sonja Komeiji's quick to respond and runs. She manages to reach a door at the end of the hall and close it quickly. The cats then stop at the door and just stares. Sonja Komeiji then runs up the stairs to the third floor and sees this next hall being filled with purple and black tiles in a chequered fashion. Soon as she walks down the hall and finally approaches the end of it. However at the end, there is a painting of what looks like Utsuho Reiuji, in the style of if she's ready to launch an attack. Sonja Komeiji gets scared, and decides to run out. However she trips mid-way back to the door, but she manages to get back up a few minutes later, and manages to reach the door, but before she opens it she sees a kitten again. Knowing it's a trap, Sonja runs the other way and begins taking the central stairs down. Soon she reaches the first floor, and makes it to the door and runs out of the palace in tears and fear. Eventually, Sonja Komeiji manages to run into her other sister, Kyllikki Komeiji and she begins to tell her what happened and what she wanted to do. Kyllikki Komeiji then hugs Sonja and soon she decides to go to the Palace herself. Three nights later, Kyllikki Komeiji goes to the Tsuyukusa Eastern Palace and Sonja Komeiji waits outside this time. As Kyllikki Komeiji enters the palace, she sees the same kitten that Sonja saw. Though she ignores it and goes and takes the central stairs. She reaches the third floor, walks down the hallway, and also sees the same painting that Sonja saw. After that, Kyllikki Komeiji begins to open the door on the left, and enters the room. However, she sees that the room is filled with a few drawings of butterflies, and a few paintings of Yuyuko Saigyouji and Youmu Konpaku can be seen. Though she doesn't find Orvokki anywhere, and so she leaves and closes the door behind her. Then proceeds to look at some of the other doors until a bit down past mid-way, she opens that door and sees Empress Orvokki Komeiji watching some television. Empress Orvokki Komeiji then turns and becomes curious of what her sister is up to, and so asks. Soon Kyllikki Komeiji then discusses about all that happened with Sonja, and after that, requests that supplies stop being sent to Onguayal. Empress Orvokki Komeiji looks at her with disappointment, and disagrees. Later, the phone rings and Empress picks it up. It is Shogun Yuyuko Kekkonen on the phone, and requests to stop sending supplies. However, the Empress refuses, and soon hangs up and runs out. Kyllikki Komeiji tries to chase her, but can't find her anywhere else in the palace. Later, she leaves the palace, and walks back home with Sonja, in disappointment, while Sonja is still angered.

Meanwhile a Kōshi Yakuza, the Lappalainen-kai (has 20 members), calls the SDL an illegal drug-based organisation due to the fact that the letters can be easily switched around to read LSD and the fact its filled with snobbish people interfering in wars that have nothing to do with them. The Yakuzas become more active in the Region of Kōshi again. WMDs continue to be stockpiled but with the resurgence of the Yakuzas, the government starts to worry about the Yakuzas getting their hands on the WMDs and then using them or selling them to other dangerous organisations.

Nippon's space programme continues as the project sends Dr Junko Akiyama, the scientist leading the space programme into space, making her the first woman in space. Upon her return she tells the Nipponese media about her trip into space and predicts that one day the human race will conquer the starts like in some of the popular sci-fi anime shows on the television.

Danish former Regent Harald is killed in Stockholm after the snowstorm hits by a lone gunman upset over the storm. Work is stalled on the new Copenhagen subway. Peturbed by the collapse of Germany, Saxony, Brandenburg, Hanover, and Bavaria are offered trade agreements to retain positive relations with the Germans.

 * Austria: Austria offers to Sell the Austrian colony for 50 Million. ia. Millitary and infrastructure is updated same with tech and Economy.
 * Denmark offers 47 million.
 * Czechland offers 60 million.
 * I doubt Czechland can actually offer 60 million without going into bankruptcy.
 * The Czechs are small and not very wealthy, they can't afford that. Plus, the Czechs don't even border an ocean, and don't have any real with a sea-bordering nation, so they can't even buy the colony.
 * Wales offers 57 million with trade options, and military bases
 * The Commonwealth of Eetoria and Ngainkeha offer Austria 30 million to gain control which the commonwealth claim is there's rightfully anyway. The nation is greatly annoyed that they have to pay to take control of the land which was claimed by the Commonwealth years before Austria set up a colony there. But they recognise that some compensation should be paid so 30 million is put on the table. The Commonwealth would also be quite hostile to any other nation taking control of this colony as the Commonwealth laid claim to the land many years before the Austrian colony was founded and the land is rightfully part of Ngainkeha.
 * The Russian Luna-3 probe is very succesful in bringing back what it was meant to do: intact photographs of the Lunar Far side, the fist ever taken in existance. Man has seen the Lunar far side for the first time. In its 5 orbits around the moon, the probe gives the Russian a valid mapping of the Lunar Surface. The 58 year old Emperor proclaims that he will strive to live untill the Russian Commonwealth and Evrokosmos have succesfuly landed on the moon, and he gives the equiveland of JFK's "We Chose to go to the Moon" speech in front of the Duma after the photographs from Luna-3 have been recovered and reavealed them to the public at the same time. Meanwhile, Evrokosmos works on Bettering the photographic capabilities of satelites for meteorologica[but realy reconesence and expionage...shhhhh! thats a Secret only Wales and Denmark should know!!!] purposes. The Russian military amps up, building more and more Missile silos and working on better, more acurate and efficiant ICBMs MRBMs and theater balistic missiles. RUssia stockpiles more nuclear bombs, and Project Ivan the Terrible begins. Russia comissions mroe nuclear subs, and its naval capacity surpases that of Nippon. Evrokosmos sends 3 Cosmonauts into Space at one time, One Welsh, One Russian, and the other, a Dane. The misison, Dubbed Sever-Vostok-Zapad(North-East-West), Lauches Vostok 3, 4 and 5. Plans for Vostok 6 and 7, Carrying the fist Russian Woman into Space, Are planned to launch next year...And that is the End of the Vostok programme, Evrokosmos Starts The Voshod programme, with a modified Vostok Spacefrat modified for a planned 3 man Crew(TOP SECRET). The Winter is harsh, but the Russian people, more used to it than most of Europe, survive, this cold not being worse that that of 1812, and they didnt have electric heaters back then! The Russians slowly recover form teh winter, and the roads break more than expected, aswell as some small villages and towns loosing power, causing 16-20 deaths due to freezing across russia...msotly seniors. The senate sends its condolances. A New model of Luna Probe is worked on for Luna-4, the "second Genereation" probe. Russia suggests the policy of advancing robotics and systems so that there can be Automated test flights of all technology without people, and have various pieces of tech without men return to caplsules and such to ensure no death occur...the "Probe before man" approach. MEanwhiel, the female candidate for The Vostok-7 mission is chosen to be Valentina Tereshkova, The honor to pilot Vostok 6 is given to a Welshman. A russian reasercher in Moscow University accidentaly invents Penecilin...an exelent and cheap antibiotic... Most everyone in Russia is getting Smallpox vaccines at birth.
 * Hungary continues updating its military. Meanwhile, Hajnal Szálasi releases another album, called "Szabad Jazz : A kollektív rögtönzések" (Free Jazz: A Collective Improvisation).Its title establishes the name of the the style played on this album.Ezsák-Afrika expands.
 * Newfoundland expands 84000 sq km.
 * Pahang builds up its military along the border with Mystiää. They again try to make propaganda claiming that Mystiää is an imperialist set-up made by the Koreans, Swedish, and Finns, and they claim that anti-imperialism in Juche is hypocritical, as without invasion they would be part of Pahang.
 * President Ano Aaltonen manages to block out and censor the Pahang propaganda to prevent it from leaked into the nation, and also releases counter-progerganda to his citizens of Mystiää. He also orders for anyone trying to find out the truth be secretly being taken away by the 'police'.
 * Istoias builds up its military, wary that a new war could break out soon.
 * Calora expands 4000 square kilometers further into South America.
 * Nippon amps up its military and produces more Ennetsu grade nuclear bombs including the new Ennetsu V2 class h-bomb (OTL Tsar Bomba). The first bomb of this new class was originally designed to have a yield of about 100 megatons of TNT (420 PJ), but the yield was reduced by Nipponese engineers to 50 megatons in order to reduce nuclear fallout (and also to prevent the blast from destroying the drop aircraft). The test took place on Karaginsky Island and the attempt was successful, as it was one of the cleanest (relative to its yield) nuclear bombs ever detonated as well as being the most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated. Nippon produces more nuclear submarines and more aircraft carriers including the new Kyodai kigyō class aircraft carrier with the aircraft carrier the Doru dora being commissioned (equivalent of OTL basically) being the world's first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier and the world's largest aircraft carrier too, thus cementing Nippon's position as the world's strongest navy not Russia. Nippon's space programme continues as the programme team up with the Sumitomo group to send into space the world's first active communications satellite. Another 2 reconnaissance satellite is sent into space along with another weather satellite too. The Furukawa zaibatsu invent the audio cassette and the Mitsubishi group invents silicone breast implants. Toshiba invent the world's first video game Uchū sensō (Space War, yes this is based on OTL Spacewar), they then go on to release a computer game version of noughts & crosses (tic, tac, toe to you Americans) and tennis game (OTL  basically). Also Nipponese stationary company, achieves great fame after the felt/fiber-tip pen is invented by Yukio Horie, the owner of Pentel.
 * Didnt we say no Technology before its time? the thing with the Tsar bomb...nice meta gaming there...did you not notice "Project Big Ivan/Ivan the Terrible". And also, Fallout would reach russian populated area...Aka it would be a deleration of Nuclear war...first you steal Sputnik by having the same design, and now you Stole the Tsar Bomb! Wait 2 more years untill 1963 like it was actualy done as was done with Sputnik. Unlike Russia, nippon has no project to create the Tsar bomb...just saying.
 * The Tsar bomba was invented in 1961, so it is not "technology ahead of its time". If they are contaminating Russia with nuclear fallout, then it could lead to nuclear war...
 * I have h-bombs, they are being improved upon to make a new class of h-bomb equivalent to which was done in 1962, a year after it was done in OTL which was 1961. Blowing up the bomb there is the safest place in the Nipponese empire. Nippon are planning on giving up their nuclear base in the Commonwealth of Eetoria & Nganinkeha to have a nuclear testing site in their own nation. Anyway before you start on Nippon for contaminating Russia, you might want to do something about the contaminating of Russia by your own bombs. No one has said a thing about nuclear fallout in this game so far, so to start a war over something which hasn't even been properly looked into and researched seems fairly implausible. And populated Russian areas? Its Siberia, its hardly Moscow levels of population. the effects won't be noticed for decades. Its gonna hit Nipponese territory too, but you want to start a war over something which is virtually unknown in the game world and takes years for effects to appear anyway? Do something about all the irradiated Russians caused by your own efforts before starting a war you won't win. Also meta-gaming? I'm inventing things as they're invented in OTL, when else am I meant to invent them?
 * Sorry...I got the bomb mixed up with something else...and oh wait...things are comming and Russia will supercede you one way or another....lets hope we dont start nuclear winter by detonating 100 MT! Also, Russia blew up their bombs in the near-unpopulated noth, mostly in the Northern Novaya Zemlya archipelago and a phew in Kazakhstan in the verry begining...dicovering Nuclear Glass! The bomb site is so dangerously close to Russian Territory. 
 * Chamoru amp up the military and the Chamorro pharmaceutical company Norratsu develop Ketamine as a derivative of phencyclidine. Ketamine testing and investigations demonstrate that ketamine's shorter duration of action and lesser psychomimetic profile make it favourable over PCP as a "dissociative" anesthetic.
 * The Nipponese Dominion of Shuubudan amp up their military and the nation bans most drugs used for non-medical purposes (i.e. getting high). The Hippuzu movement people begin to leave Shuubudan to live in more drug tollerant nations, a lot of them move to Chamoru, the commonwealth of Eetoria & Ngainkeha, Nippon and Wonderlaand as their drug policies are a lot more lenient than Shuubudan's.
 * Calls for Sunda to join the Imperial Confederation of Saigyō grow as the economy severely contracts and the country desperately needs bailout loans after years of over-spending.
 * The Saigyō ambassador to Sunda Mr Abdul Muntaqim offers Sunda the chance to join the Imperial Confederation of Saigyō. The confederacy will bail out Sunda, and the two nation's shall join together with Sunda a nation of the confederacy.
 * Sunda accepts and begins preparations to join the Imperial Confederation of Saigyō.

The federation parliament ask the other American nations when they will be ready to join the new superstate.
 * The Commonwealth of Eetoria and Ngainkeha amp up their military and the Commonwealth continue to negotiate with Austria to try and solve the problem of Austria infringing on the territorial claims of the Commonwealth. This seems to be taking the form of the Commonwealth buying the Austrian colony.
 * Wonderlaand finishes rebuilding itself following the war, and president Einar Hulda organises a referendum to join Scandanavia next year. He does this to bring all of Wonderlaand round to the idea as he battles against the anti-unionists, anti-Denmark Swedish nationalists and those who think this will damage Wonderlaand's close relations with its Asian allies like Nippon and the Commonwealth of Eetoria and Ngainkeha.
 * You can't join Scandanavia. You are too far away. 
 * Mauritius amps up their military and continues breeding Dodos on a large scale, as the gloal Dodo trade spreads world wide as Dodos are now farmed in almost every developed nation, albeit not on the same large scale of chickens and other more popular poultry birds.
 * Kongo expands by 50,000 square kilometers to the south.
 * Bharat funds more money into its army, and this helps to manufacture advanced tanks. They are also proud that the countries with the second and third largest fleets are fighting each other for the higher spot, and cannot compete with Bharat itself, as it builds the largest battleship(s) in the world, followed by creating more aircraft carriers, almost as large as Nippon's flagship. Bharat also churns out the first of its own nuclear suberines with ICBMs. These can operate anywhere in the world. B.A.S.A continues sending more weather satellites over the planet, and the tests begin to show more progress. A satellite is also launched to orbit the moon then return to Earth with information. It returns and tells scientists a lot about the moon and its composition. B.A.S.A's rocket is finished this year. It is too late to beat the other powers into space, but it does manage to get Bharati Astronauts into space none the less. It sets the record for getting the first women into space. War of the Worlds! is on its last year of being aired, it is a regret, but its run has been very successful. Kyuki Saas Bhi Kabi Bahu Thi continues to be aired as people continue watching it. The BBC continues to cover all the launches into space and proudly report on the first Bharatis going into space. HP Computers make more progress this year. HP computers continue to make good progress on CGI technology. The Times continues to spread, and expands services. Tata's Aircorps begin to design better helicopters. Gunships helicopters continue to be produced, while bigger transport helicopters are almost ready to be produced. The Manhav Desai F-4 Bhoot continues to be produced and more of the F-4 get delivered to the air force. The fighter is designed into a fighter-bomber varient as well. More are ordered as wars seem on the horizon. The Prince begins to spend more time in Finland. The Nuclear Agency watches over the stock-piling of nuclear bombs. They continue to research the properties of nuclear power for commercial use. ICBMs begin to be produced in large numbers with atomic warheads. The colonies declare independence. They bring back troops from Onguayal, while amp up to invade the small former Spanish colony for Bengal.
 * Bengal's Aparthied continues to be set up. To keep control, the military is amped up. The colony in South Africa is expanded by 48800km in every direction. Meanwhile, Benagl amps up for a campaign in its colony. Meanwhile, its small enclave in Bharat begins asking to join the country [Bharat] and do not want to be a Bengali colony anymore.
 * Afganistan's army continues training hard in war games. The team of scientists continue their research. The population redistribution continues. More oil and gas are extracted.
 * Onguayal work on their army and continue industrializing. More of Onguayal's fleet continues to be upgraded and Onguayal expands 45000km. Onguayal declares the war over, retreating from Fjordlaander territory angrily. The knew they would have won if the SLD had not intervined, and are not happy. Onguayal ask Bharat if they could help in their space and
 * The three Australian states declare the Federation of Australia along with the main state of Australia. They take most of their national matters into their hands, although they continue to green the desert and grow crops with the extra rainfall. Bharat recognises this new Federation bids them good luck.
 * Sindu begins to experience independence movements of its own this year as the Australian colonies declare independence. Therefore, the colony only expands (1150 [using grey expansion] * 7 * 1.5 * 3 * 1.5 [next to civil chaos]) 54350km. It seems that extra land for farming has helped expand the country, through the movements.

1963
''' Iran declares total independence from the Caliphate's influence. Due to their dislike of the theocratic caliphate, Iran establishes a secular nation, though still fairly authoritarian. The parts of the French West African colony that were once part of Mali declare their independence from France. Tuareg expands to the north until it doubles its size. Meanwhile, massive pro-independence protests are held on the OTL Nigerian coast against Bharati rule. '''

 * Finland continues to build up its military, build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation. Shogun Yuyuko Kekkonen makes more neutral policies, and soon releases a new law that officially turns the Finnish Imperial Military, and reorganises and turns it into the Finland Self-Defence Forces (so now basically the Finnish military will be like otl ). Kyllikki Komeiji and Sonja Komeiji welcome the new law, and hope that Finland can be in peace for many years to come. Empress Orvokki Komeiji however is a bit worried about the idea, but is soon heavily convinced by Sonja Komeiji so she then agrees to it, which Empress does, and so she then gladly accepts this new change. The huge motorway system continues being built in Finland, along with liikennevalot. Animation films and Anime and Manga are continued to be made too. Satomi Karjalainen's Satoyori (さとより) Company continues to making/building cars and military equipment (tanks, weapons, etc.) while Ayumi Rahikkala's Tōhōnokia continues to making phones.

President Ano Aaltonen sends a copy of his blueprint of the Juche Tower to Käwäshiro. By the 4th month, President Ano Aaltonen releases his Juche ideology book, containing all the stuff about Juche, and it is soon released in both Mystiää and Käwäshiro. By the 9th month, he decides he had enough of these little Pahangers and declares war on them; he states that they are a bunch of capitalist pigs, and filled with snobbish rich people who steal from the poor, and are filled with corporate greed. He hopes to try to get them to stop what their doing and make them leave his nation alone. Soon tanks come smashing into Pahang... (okay, now somewhat of a Korean War parallel, only this one is to ¿survive or fall? [as in if Mystiää will stay or be gone themselves])
 * Pahang declares that they will defend themselves from the collectivist creation of the imperialists. The Pahangese call for New Maya, Sunda, Saigyō, Ternate, and all other Southeast Asian nations to aid them, as a victory for Mystiää could lead to Juche dominating the entire region.

Italy also is afraid of war. They contact their good old ally Vietnam and ask them if they are going to join a side in this conflict, as the Italians do not wish to go to war against Vietnam, their oldest friend. Italy helps Savoy and Burgundy build themselves up. Many Italians hope that Savoy will rejoin Italy, an action which certainly seems likely.
 * If you read my past posts you will see Wales also has done a nuclear power build up, your nation is not the only one using them for generators. Wales has almost 5Andr3w777 (talk) 17:57, July 19, 2012 (UTC)
 * I hadn't seen that, but in any case, Italy is like 6 times the size of Wales so they would have more anyways.
 * Scandinavia builds nuclear power reactors following Italy's designs and three more ICBM submarines. Six new aircraft carriers are built. Troops begin to withdraw from France seeing that they are losing and the King states that the French Royal Family in exile can stay in Scandinavia, closer to France. Scandinavian intelligence decides that a war with Asia is imminent and alliance offers are sent out to the remains of Germany, Austria, Czechland, Breslau, and Hungary in case of war. Scandinavia launches the Scandinavia XIII as the last satellite of the Scandinavia program. The Luna program continues and two rovers are sent to the moon to explore the mass. The States Funeral of former Regent Harald VIII takes place and has the greatest assembly of government officials ever.
 * The first Lunar Rovers were deployed in 1970, however it is possible to have the Luna 8 or Luna 9 type probe achieve a soft landing and relay Lunar data and collect some samples, take pictures while in orbit before using Lunar gravity to slingshot to earth!
 * Austrian Diplomacy: Austria Agrees to the alliance offers.
 * Actually these are not OTL rovers, that's just what they're called. Think of these as OTL Ranger 8 and 9 and the such.
 * The Brythonic Commonwealth cancels the referendum until after the war. The Security Directorate has concluded war is imminent with the Asian powers and sends out offers of alliance to all nations in Europe. Offers of alliance are also sent to Collectivist France, as the near war is bad for all of Europe. Also alliance offers are sent to Vietnam, along with a plea to not join Nippon and Bharat in their foolish war.The PM asks Italy to remain on the European side in the conflict as they are a European nation, and are at just as much risk as the other European nations. The 5th fleet is returned to Wales, and has began to setup defensive parameters around Welsh holdings. As a security measure, the heavily fortified Welsh/British border is supported with tanks, anti-aircraft guns and a large military reserve. all inter Isles travel is postponed after a severe train wreck near the border caused by a drunk railworker. The PM attends Regent Harald's Funeral and has stated it was one of the most sad he's ever been to. All alliance and trade networks with Nippon and Bharat are cancelled. Victor electronics SECRETLY still continues trade with Nippon against government regulations. The Socialist Party wins seats in the General Assembly. Galaxy III and IV are launched at the same time, one is a space weather satellite, the other is officially an Earth weather satellite- but is really and SECRETLY a spy satellite dedicated to watching the troop movements in the East. Project Excalabur continues with renewed vigor.
 * Nippon is shocked and appalled at the Brythonic Commonwealth's actions and condemns the nation for souring relations and making attempts at diplomacy much more difficult.
 * The Vietnamese start funding their own space program, which they intend to use for only communication purposes. They have plans to start launching satellites within a few years.

This rocket, capable of being converted into a Super-ICBM, with the capability of Launching a 100+ Megaton warhead over 13 000km. Although The Rocket fails and is far form perfect, it has the potential of being he most reliable heavy launch system in the world. Russia sends sufficient funds towards the Excalubur programme. The Voskhod programme does not launch another human into orbit, due to funding being redirected to creating new rockets and Luna probes, as well as secretly Launching satellites to monitor the East. Russia builds more Missile silos, and works on perfecting the Proton Rocket's design. The Russians build more Aircraft carriers, none of them are nuclear however, The HIHS Lermontov(Helicopter Carrier), HIHS Admiral Andrei Popov, HIHS Kontr-Admiral(Rear Admiral) Pavel Pereleshkin, and the Nuclear-powered HIHS Admiral Grigori Spiridov.

 * Nippon amps up its military and produces more Ennetsu grade nuclear bombs most of the new bombs being Ennetsu V2 class, some of these new bombs are designed to yeild more than 100 megatons but Nippon decides not to test them in case the explosion is so big northern Kamochatoka prefecture becomes completely inhabitable. Nippon produces more nuclear submarines and more aircraft carriers including another Kyodai kigyō class aircraft carrier, and the INN also complete another 2 Yamato class battleships. Nippon's space programme continues as 2 new reconnaissance satellites are sent into space, mostly to spy on the Europeans. Nipponese astronught Hideki Kyoutoyoma becomes the first man to walk in space, while he films the experience with a camera, the clip is glorified in the Nipponese media, especially Mr Kyoutoyoma's accompanying words in the footage: "If you look up, there are no limits, but silence surpasses speech." The Nipponese space programme begins planning for a lunar landing in the next couple of years, a probe is sent to map the moon to find a suitable landing spot. He returns home to a hero's welcome and Toshiba invent the compact disk and hypertext as Toshiba continue to supply nearly all universities in Asia with computers making company profits more than double its nearest European rivals. Mitsui's textile division invents kevlar and begins to sell kevlar vests to the Nipponese special police forces. Soft contact lenses invented by Mitsubishi and the Nishio Sugar Company invent & release their own line of artificial sweeteners.

The Nipponese band the Wandering Ronin (OTL Rolling stones) finds great success in Nippon's music industry and begin touring in other Asian nations.
 * Russia has already had a space walk you ARE NOT the first
 * When did Russia do this exactly? I looked at the Russian post for 1965 and didn't see any mention of a space walk. The first space walk was in 1965 and if Russia did this before 1965 then your breaking the rules. Anyway I suspect you did it before 1965 then, meaning that it would be voided as your doing it before it happened in OTL, meaning that Nippon was first.
 * EDIT: Yeah I looked you did it in 1964, a year earlier than it happened in OTL meaning it gets voided and Nippon is first.
 * Chamoru amp up the military and the Chamorro pharmaceutical company Norratsu's top opticians invent soft contact lenses and other engineers at Norratsu improve upon the iron lung to create the respirator.

 * Corrected as the Fench colony is nowhere near the Niger River, and has no parts of OTL Nigeria.it is mostly on OTL Ghana and Ivory Coast.

''' The government if Itsaygahi is overthrown by the Tsalagi Independence Front, which destroys the theocratic Islamic Itsaygahi government to establish the secular Tsalagi Republic.

Elections are held this year with former general Alexander Volus, the Socialist Party leader, winning majority of the vote. His first act of office is to open a direct line to the Nipponese government in an effort to establish more postive relations to hopefully avoid a world war. The Government of Nigeria is offically recongnized as is the People's Republic of France. Trade offers and an alliance pact is sent to both nations. The referedum on joining the Republic of Britain is still on hold pending a reply from the Nipponese on their intentions. The worst Hurricane on record, Hurricane Delia strikes the west coast of Wales, luckly Ireland took most of the damage. As a gesture of good will the Red Cross is sent to Ireland to help with the recovery. Plans continue to merge the Big Three alliance into one confederation of states called Pan Europa. Referendums are sent to Scandinavia and Russia on the vote.
 * Nippon rejects the idea of the Brythonic Commonwealth, Nippon demands that Brythonic Commonwealth apologize and things go back to how they were before the Brythonic Commonwealth cut ties with Nippon. Nippon demands trade concessions from the Brythonic Commonwealth too, as compensation from the Brythonic Commonwealth for nearly starting a world war too.
 * Oh hate to break it to you but the Brythonic Commonwealth has been our name since the 50's, where have you been? Just because we hold an election and the Socialist party, NOT COLLECTVIST takes power for 4 years is no reason to" reject the idea of the Brythonic Commonwealth" Also you can forget any trade reparations
 * What on Earth are you talking about? The idea I was referring to was "opening a direct line to the Nipponese government in an effort to establish more postive relations to hopefully avoid a world war." Hence I then said Nippon wants things to go back to how they were before the Brythonic Commonwealth cut ties with Nippon, you know, what the commonwealth did last turn? Nippon clearly stated Nippon was shocked and appalled at the Brythonic Commonwealth's actions to cut ties with Nippon and then condemned the commonwealth for souring relations and making attempts at diplomacy much more difficult. The Brythonic Commonwealth started this whole problem after the Brythonic Commonwealth randomly decided to cut ties with Nippon. Nippon is hurt by the Brythonic Commonwealth's actions towards them and wants to be compensated in the form of trade concessions as the Brythonic Commonwealth nearly started a world war over nothing! You have much to learn about spying and strategy my friend. ~VON
 * I am sorry I mis understood this part "Nippon rejects the idea of the Brythonic Commonwealth" I thought you were criticsizing my gov't and where does spying and strategy com into play? I cut ties with you because you seemed to be on your merry way to cause World War, how is one nation breaking ties with you, threatening World War? I did not threaten you. I was afraid of a suprise attack against my allies, so I pre-empitvely responded. I apologize for the confusion. We will pay trade reparations as a gesture of good faith.

The Russian Governement works some more on the "Samoderzhavets" initiative. Work is done to perfect the Proton Rocket deesign, and work is done to make a prototype Lunar Lander from The Succesful Luna-9 models that are one of the only vehicles to succesfuly land on an extraterrestrial surface. Ajustments are done to The Probes to take into account Humans and their need for space. A newer, more spacious module is made and a proton Rocket is modified to succesfuly send a man and a lander to the moon. Meanwhile, The Soyuz(Unity, Union, or other variatons thereof in Danish or welsh are acceptable for the name in the respective programmes) proggrame has a headstart as the protoype module is launched into orbit, Later, Using advanced robotics, the Sputnik-Korabl 11 and 12, tests for the docking in the Soyuz craft. They are a success, and he new ejection system is tested, although a bit less reliable, it can usualy work. Meanwhile, a sad day is underway in russia, as the lead Rocket Pioneer, koroloev, tragicaly dies of cancer, and is postumorously promoted from Colone and awarded the rank of Generalissimo of the Russian Imperial Armed Forces, hearby giving him the right to the ranks of Admiral of the Russian Fleets(Probably in order to name an aircraft Carrier after him), and Grand Air Marshal of the VVF(air force)and and was inducted into the order of Saint Andrew, in honor of his servicein getting russia into space. The Sikorsky 15 training jets are officialy put out of service, and sold for scraps or recycled to make newer jets. Work on the exalibur project continues, as the Russians launch 5 newly designed "sablya" probes, that are meant to immitate meteor strikes, officialy to examine the possible explinaitons to the Tunguska event, many of the scientific community believe to be casue by an asteroid strike making an arial burst, and examine if an object can strike the earth in such a way not to produce a crater.(dont say this didnt happen, becasue it is an exernal event, probably an asteroid hitting the earth! there is nothing anyone could have done to affect that as we can not control space!). The sablya satelites, however have another, more secret purpose, only known to the top-ranked officials in Russia, and even then only on a need-to-know basis including the late Korolev, making the ammount of people who know 8, excluding the Royal family, and the secret is not revealed on paper, and only in confidential rooms verbaly, as to make it harder to make it revealed through espionage. The True purpose of the Sablya probes is to act as orbital weapons platforms, and the tests were realy to test their accuracy when deployed from orbit, and how much a pure-impact from space would make, and one of the probes had a large-yield vaccum bomb, s to test the arial burst theory and was actualy to test if it is possible an asteroid caused tunguska as its primary purpose. all Sablya probes landed within 1-2.25 km of their goals after orbit, proving it possibe to lauch directed weapons from satelites in orbit. It is published in all scientific journals that Tests with the Areal burst bomb prove inconclusive as it was detonated way to high to provide any reasonable data or effects to prove any theory, although the possibility is much more supported now that a little more eidence is brought forth. The no-bomb satelites failed to explode on their own, or did so during early stages of re-entry, proving that some external events were needed to initiate the areal burst that theoreticaly might have casued Tunguska. The Rusisan military builds more nuclear warheads, and nuclear ICBM subs. work on nuclear Jets begins everywhere. Russia has over 15 000 nuclear warheds, and 20 000 nukes. Work on the Ostankino Tower in Moscow begins.
 * Whoa whoa whoa, my Venera 1 landed on another planet way before your Luna 9 so it wasn't the only thing on extraterrestrial surfaces.
 * ​It was still part of the joint space programme, correct? so it was designed form the same model as the Luna 9.
 * What are you talking about? You said "Luna-9 models that are one of the only vehicles to succesfuly land on an extraterrestrial surface." Actually forget it, you corrected it by saying "one of the only" so it's all good now.
 * Your last part there is a aprt of my Project Excalabur plan, remember. Your ok I just wanted to let everyone elso know that all three of us are doing this. and it is led by the Brythonic Commonwealth
 * ​yes it is. and I said only 8 people knew. I didnt know i had to specify it wasn't only russians becasuse I though everyone knew that all three of us was working on it. Only the highest ranking officials know of theri true purpose, and even the ones responsible for the lanch think it was to test tunguska event theories.
