Alternate Nations 3 (Map Game)

Since the first two games were so successful, I am rebooting the series for a third time. Welcome to Alternate Nations III! This is going to be a successor to the Alternate Nations Game and its ill-fated successor, Alternate Nations 2. In this game series, people create their own nations on a map turn-by-turn and write basic information on them for flavor. This is unlike the modern Map Games, but rather hearkens back to the olde Map Games of yore. It can be a great way to  waste pass time on the wiki. So what are you waiting for? Sign up now!

Note: The maps of the USA and Canada have been completed and archived here. and here we will now be moving on to __________ and soon we will be conversing the whole globe

Rules

 * Game starts with five players. It is not capped there.
 * Label your turn as Turn 1, Turn 2, Turn 3, etc.
 * A default map will be posted at the start, and to take a "turn", people make an edit to the unclaimed white parts of the map and add their ATL nation. Every turn you draw a new nation onto the map.
 * After each map edit the player will post as to what nation they added, and give a brief description of added nation- (county name, capital city, the four largest cities, religion(s), language(s), ethnic group(s), regime, literacy rate, currency, total population, economic type, total military strength and nation's favorite sport(s)), motto/national anthem, etc. (feel free to add on)
 * The largest nation that you can create is approximately the size of Sweden and Finland.
 * Don't make all of your nations as large as possible.
 * You can make up nations within the map.
 * If you do not make a map your turn will be deleted!
 *  No  robot space ninjas, Cybermen, Borg, wizards or other supernatural elements!
 * You just created a new nation = mission completed for that round!
 * When another person posts after your turn, then your free to take another turn yourself.
 * Use the map that the person above you posted! This will not lead to nations conflicting.
 * If nations conflict, the person who made the nation that overlaps with the previous nation's turn will be deleted.
 * Mods must remain vigilant to prevent conflicts from happening.
 * Sign your posts!
 * Repeat the above actions to create another nation next round, if you liked it enough to want to return, or you could just leave it at one, if you want to!
 * Use the default map's size for your updated map, but post it as a 400px thumbnail on the right side of the page.
 * Your facts don't have to be real. However, real ones are allowed. (Just don't copy real nations!)
 * All maps are set in modern times.
 * Maps must be saved as a .png, and must be entitled "AltNations_(turn number)"
 * Mods, if any one of these rules are not followed, feel free to delete the offending post.
 * Make it interesting! Don't just copy OTL facts, this is the Alternate History Wiki.
