Complaints
Florida is American

Issues

 * A REMINDER: Do not interweave alliances again!
 * Colonization and expansion: This needs to be brought up. I'm sure everyone notices that we are playing in the 1790s. Humanity wasn't a God back then. Technology was sub-par. So when it comes to colonization, we can't expect to colonize a large portion of land in less than 2 years. It just can't work like that. But I'm talking about colonization of the new world. If one is colonizing their own area (like Russia is doing currently, if I read properly), they'll have an easier time expanding, which is why I expanded it as much as I did. I really think we need to make a rule saying we can only expand so much. Colonization takes time, so that's why I shrunk Prussia's colony. And as I said, I want this as a rule, but I didn't feel right to just add it. ChrisL123 17:48, February 25, 2012 (UTC)

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

1792.0

 * China: The Quing Dynasty has entered a period of growth; it plans a government-funded 'trip' that has 200 merchant ships, which will go around the world, starting to South America, then to North America, then Europe, then the Middle East and Africa, then finally, areas around India; in an attenmpt to gather knowledge of the world, and modernize their military with those of great European Armies, people in China have heard from. The Empire of the Quing Dynasty has had small considerations of giving Korea it's independence.


 * New Spain: The Viceroy begins a plan of expansion. They encourage the people to have more children and settle the unsettled areas of the VIceroyalty. They also send missionaries to convert people to Christianity. THey begin to develop an industrialized economy.


 * Prussia: The king of Prussia marries the Duchess of Mecklenburg, uniting the two countries. The country prepares to establish colonies in competition with other nations. In order to protect the nation, the Prussian King proposes an alliance with Great Britain and a non-agression pact with Austria.


 * Austria: The Austrians accept Prussia's non-aggression pact. Leopold VII grants the army right to more funding to make a more powerful army after the crippling . Feeling defenseless, Austria asks for an alliance with Russia and maybe France (if monarchy is reestablished).
 * Russia agrees, mainly because we are both Absolute Monarchists.
 * United States: American milita cripple the Whiskey Rebellion, and begin the search for the leader. Realizing that America is surrounded by hostile threats, declares neutrality and Congress authorizes the creation of the United States Army and Navy, and request to purchase Florida from Spain for an reasonable price.
 * Russia: Russia beginsbuilding up it's miltary. Settlers begin to move Eastward after the government begins encouring citizens to start up their own farms. Land is made less expensive if you have joined the army, so this helps the government and agriculture. After seeing the Revolution in France, people are banned from traveling there. Also, information about the revolution has been banned.
 * Spain: Spain agrees to the US' offer, giving Florida but the Keys for a low price. Spain sends troops and ships most of its Viceroyalties, including New Spain and Chile as well as the Pyrenees. The Spanish King hires a liberal official, Francisco de Saavedra, as the new "prime minister" of Spain, demoting the Count of Floridablanca to a lower, if still prestigious, position. Saavedra's first decision is to begin a literacy and education program in both Spain and the Americas, as well as limiting the price of bread. However, these plans are delayed some years by the high cost of arming and mantaining Spanish troops.
 * Río de la Plata: The Viceroy Gabriel de Avilés y del Fierro is very popular at the time, and his efforts to improve the everyday life of the rioplatense citzens and even the tribes have made him a good reputation. Now his more interested in prepare the viceroyalty for a possible attack if the King is planning to declare war on France or even if the barbaric republic new french government plans to invade Spain and expand their dominion of the common ones. The ports of Buenos Aires and Montevideo are built up, stronger defences are rised in the outskirts of the towns and some militia corps are trained and mercenary tribes are localized, but not yet called to arms.
 * Dutch Republic: William V of Orange begins his attempt to build up and train the Dutch army and navy, while maintaining a neutral stance. Tariffs are being raised to help finance this move. In addition, The Stadtholder makes a request to Prussia for officers and advisors to help in its training. This policy of military buildup is also spread to it's colonies in Cape Colony, Ceylon and the East Indies, but in a much smaller scale, rather focusing on autonomous self-management by the Dutch East India Company.
 * Chile: Spanish Governor Ambrosio O'Higgins continues his effort for expand the territory to the. For this, he manages to make deals with the Mapuches, who lived and controling the territories beyond the Bio-Bio river, allowing him to send expeditions for built new cities. Also, he care about the needs of the population in education and health. Troops sent by Spain are recieved.
 * The Ottoman Empire: The Empire ends the current Russo-Turk War and start seeking other territories in Africa and Asia. It starts invading the Arabian peninsula. By the end of the year, though, it has conquered less than 1/6 of the area.
 * Portugal: expands its African colonies and more Portuguese emigrate to Goa were the docks are expanded to allow for the increased flow of ships
 * Siam: King Rama of Siam fears that his nation may be a target for the Europeans in their colonization, and thus promotes trade with the Europeans. He has his grandson, Jessadabodindra, betrothed to the oldest daughter of the Burmese ing Bodawpaya, in hopes of bringing those two nations closer together.
 * Quing (China) Diplomacy: It offers Siam free trade agreements, in hope of bonding Siam and China, and warns it that Siam should limit trade with European Nations, as greedy European nations, seeing what Siam can offer, may even make them more encouraged to attack Siam with no sense of justice. But, they also warn to not close down trade with Europe too much.
 * France: Our king has stated that the monarquie he have will not last much longer because our people are revolting against the king and they will probably kill him if necessarie so he makes the army wait in front of the castle fo a revolt
 * Japan: The Shogun of Japan, Tokugawa Ienari, dies mysteriously in his sleep, but without a proper heir the Rōjū take over temporarily as the leaders of Japan. They temporarily give the Emperor of Japan, Kōkaku, expanded military powers, along with a greater diplomatic role. He sends King George III of Britain a message, asking for a trade agreement, thus beginning the opening of Japan. He also asks for a formal personal meeting between the two monarchs.
 * Britain: Colonial expansion in Africa, Canada, Australia, and India continues. 35,000 troops are sent to a secret undisclosed location

1792.5

 * Britain: Colonial expansion in Africa, Canada, Australia, and India continues. An additonal 15,000 trooops are sent to the same loaction as the first 35,000, which just so happens to be Canada. Britain declares war on the United States of America and invades Maine, New York, OTL Ohio and Mchigan, and all territory bordering Britsh Canada. Britsh troops land in the Chesepeake Bay and march on Washington DC and take the city, capturing the Congress and the President, George Washington, and the Britsh threaten his execution if the United States does not surrender to the Britsh Empire, the Americans are promised that their indepandance will bbe kept. Britsh troops finish up the occupation of northern New England and New York as well as northern OTL Michigan Territory, Minnesota, and Wisconsin. A blaockade of the American coast is estalbihed, ruining American trade.
 * It would be very implausible for them to take all of that in half a year. This is why I don't like it when Map games go by half-years, everyone goes too fast..
 * Quing Dynasty (China): The Large Merchant Fleet reaches Spain's colony of Chile, and offer Spain as a whole, a trade agreement, opening all Chinese, and Spanish port to each other. The Chinese Merchant Fleet lost 2 ships after rough sails, they pick up 4 young men, which are experienced in history and language of Europe, and have told the Admiral to go up north, that there is a nation called the United States of America, as they go there, Chinese sailors are charting a map. The Quing Emperor, a young man with a fear that the European powers will attack Quing, or any other close nation, offers Japan, Siam, a military pact, stating, if any European power attacks any of the three nations, the other two will support the nation being attacked in any way possible. In military matters, Quing scholars from Europe, speak of the advances of gunpowder, cannons, and ships, which has greatly interested the young Quing Emperor.
 * Spain, surprised at China's opening, agrees to the request. It also thanks Rio de la Plata but declares it doesn't wish to go to war with France. Spain begins working its literacy program.
 * The Viceroyalty of Río de la Plata is still improving its military efforts. New fortifications are built in Buenos Aires and Montevideo, and a little fleet is built in the rivers, and the internal trading is improved. The viceroy wants to aument the trade with Chile. The troops sent by Spain are sent to help the militias to protect the cities.
 * Prussia: The Prussian military invades into Patagonia, establishing a colony after negotiations with the Mapuche natives. They increase fortifications on the Falkland Islands . The navy begins to build up.
 * That not appears in the map, but the Falklands (AKA Malvinas) are still spanish. They're part of the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata since 1776, its own foundation. If you invade the islands, you're declaring war on Spain, unless you convince Spain to sell them to you.
 * The United States request an ceasefire (Take's place on the talk page), an young captain from the American Army, Andrew Jackson, begins building fortifications in South Carolina, with cannons being placed at the sea, and an massive barrier is built around Charleston, the temporary capital of the United States until the ceasfire takes place. Jackson also recruits American milita men, pirates, tradesmen, and the Cherokee indians to defend Charleston from the British.
 * Chile: Governor O'higgins he order to duplicate the efforts to raise cities in the south and to enlist more men to the militias. He agree with increase the trade with Rio de la Plata and the roads toward there are improved.
 * The Ottoman Empire: The Empire starts moving south and east. War is declared on Persia.
 * New Spain: Gold is discovered in New Mexico and California, causing amssive immigration northernward. The government hopes to develop industry in the region to make the economy strong.
 * Thailand strengthens its alliance with Burma, placing Burma under its protection against any European colonialism.
 * Dutch Republic: The Dutch East India Company begins a colonial expedition west from the Cape of Good Hope. This leads to conflict with the native Zulu populations. Meanwhile, the Dutch government at home condemns the British war with the United States, claiming it to be a violation of Article 2 of the Treaty of Paris of 1783. As a result, English ships are forbidden to trade in Dutch ports until peace is made "status quo ante bellum." The Dutch continue to expand its Navy, in the event of a British retaliation.
 * Portugal: Continues to expand thier African colonies and opens up a trade port in OTL New Guinea.
 * Russia: People continue to move East after the government keeps up the subsidies for land there. The Miltary begins to notice an increase in recruits and thanks the new program for these increases. The population out in the East is still low, but it is growing. Small workshops are being set up along rivers that will make goods at a cheaper price. The number of these shops are low, but they have increased in the Moscow region, and so as part of a new infranstructure canels are being dug toward that area.

1793.0

 * Britain Colonial expansion continues in South Africa, Canada, Australia, Inida, and the newly established colony of Britsh Colombia. The Army, Navy, and rest of the military contniues to be modernized and expanded. Britain establishes a colony in OTL Nambia and Madagascar as well as in Anchorage (OTL), and near Seattle, Washington (also OTL). Britain proposes the Treaty of London to end the war with the USA:
 *  Sims, why did you edit your move so you established more colonies? I don't think your supposed to do that. 
 *  last time I do that

'''That whole treaty is implausible. The great George Washington would never do that. Nor would the Americans. And that land was undisputably American according to the Treaty of Paris after the American Revolution! Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 22:32, February 25, 2012 (UTC)'''


 * America: Many American settlers leave the new British territory, and settle along the border. George Washington and Congress is returned to Washington D.C. George Washington signs the Treaty of London, and later begins improvements to rebuild the Army and Navy, while Andrew Jackson is promoted to General at such an young age, becoming the world's youngest General, and continues to hold it. Settelers begin to move north into the new American states of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.


 * Britsh Diplomacy: The King of England officilay apologizes for having taken Washington hostage, and the King offers to compensate Washington with 45,000 britsh crowns, saying that Washington, "although a Yankee rebel, deserves repect as on of the greatest military commanders of out time, and the father of his beloved American republic."
 * American Diplomacy: Nah! keep your money, Washington is safe, and that's all what matters to America.
 * Britsh Diplomacy: Britain then offers to donate the above said amount fo money to the American goverment to help pay off its war debts, as the king feels something must be done to compensate the horrendous ttreament of Washington, and if he will not accept it then maybe his goverment will.
 * American Diplomacy: Agree.
 * Implausible again. [[Image:IMPERIAL NY-SPQR 1.png|25px]] Syngraféas Enallaktikí̱ Istoría, Dic mihi lingua Anglorum. 22:32, February 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * Russia: Russian settlers continue moving East, and more recruits join the miltary after the promise of cheaper land. The canals that are being built toward Moscow continue on in construction. The supply of water for the workshops and the population rises, helping the economy, and providing Russians with jobs and a steady source of tax revenue for the government.
 * Portugal: Expands deeper into Africa and sends expaditions as far north as the Congo. The Portuguese colonial army and navy are expanded to protect Portugals overseas intrests.
 * Austria: The Austrian increase of the military increases. The government plans to finally invade and annex the, to have an easier route to travel if they ever need to repel the French rebels again, but nothing is set in stone yet.
 * Prussia: The army expands further into Patagonia, now covering a fair amount of the coast. The army is massed outside the border with Saxony. The government declares that the state of Prussia (not the country) is a German state, and that it will fight to the death to preserve it.
 * Dutch Republic: The Dutch expands eastward from the Cape of Good Hope, moving to send settlers into the Natal. The Dutch government proposes an alliance will fellow Protestant nation Prussia in hopes that it will prevent a possible invasion from either Austria or the French revolutionaries.


 * The Dutch are asked if the UK can buy their South Africa colony, in return the Britsh will recognize the Dutch colony of New Holland in Australaia and cede the surrounding land to the Dutch.
 * Prussian Diplomacy: Pussia accepts the alliance proposal and suggests that the Netherlands might one day have a monarchy like the majority of nations.
 * Dutch Diplomacy: The Dutch accepts the purchase of the Cape Colony in South Africa and recognize the transfer of the land around New Holland to the Dutch. We will also take Prussia's suggestion of transitioning to a monarchy into consideration.
 * British Diplomacy: The Dutch are thanked for selling South Africa to Britain, and the promised land is vacated by Britsh troops.
 * ​New Spain: More and more people continue to pour into New Mexico and California due to the discovery of gold. They also begin settlement of the Great Plains to make it a bread basket for New Spain. The economy continues to expand. Hopefully that no one would notice, they begin expansion into the Oregon Country.
 * Thailand builds up its military and strengthens ties with Burma, entering a very very loose confederacy with Burma.
 * The Ottoman Empire: Moves further south and attacks Persia. (Am I allowed to do that?)
 * yes, you can do that, but I would build up an army first. The Britsh will aid you by sending 45,000 troops and blockading Persias coasts.
 * Dutch Diplomacy: The Dutch will also aid by allowing military access to our ports in Ceylon against the Persians.
 * Quing Dynasty: The large merchant fleet reaches North America, more specifically, Boston, and the men they picked up from the Spanish colony are suprised by hearing the results of the war, neverless, The Quing Dynasty offers The United States, and only the United States, trade agreements. Back in the mainland, hearing of deserters of the British Army in India, the Quing Emperor begins to learn of the ways European Armies fight, and begins to modernize his army in ways of fightings, and hopes to modernize his army technologically. It once agains offers Japan, a military alliance.
