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, and an era in which power is cemented.

''' A devastating earthquake shakes Persia. 200,000 are dead in and around Tabriz. Bavaria declares independence from Brandenburg, along with Prussia.Meanwhile, the Saxonian forces obtain a decisive victory over the Brandenburgian forces near Magdeburg.inspired by the recent events on Saxony, revols against Brandeburgian rule grow in western Brandenburg, espacially on Westphalia and Rhineland. Meanwhile, in the Indian subcontinent Bharat vassalizes the two small nations that it practically surrounds, Gondwana and Bidar. '''

''' I changed the event concerning the AGC, as the process of breakup should take longer than just three years.assuming that Scandinator posted the events, you yourself said that it would be complete in 1797.and it still is 1780. '''


 * Industrialization continues in Hungary.The economy grows.Egypt updates its military.Meanwhile, Newfoundland continues expanding, and Magyar Dél-Amerikabán expands 2750 sq km inland.
 * Nippon continues to expand into Karafuto as the war rages on. The Shogun is also deeply offended by the Tsar's claim to Karafuto/Sakahalin island and the Chishima/Kuril Islands which are not only part of the Nipponese nation but they are populated by Nipponese citizens. Nippon ask Finland to do something about their Union parter Russia and get Russia to remove her claim to Nipponese controlled territories, and former Nipponese controlled territories. Meanwhile Chamoru manages to conquer all of her neighbouring tribes and assumes complete control over the Mariana Islands. Kamochatoka expands too by 800 sq km. Emperor Go-Momozono dies too, and his adopted son from the Kan'in branch of the Imperial family ascends to the Chrysanthemum Throne as Emperor Kōkaku.
 * Finland will do whatever it can to convince Russia to stop claiming Nipponese Islands.
 * Russia claimed them before you entered the game... Tsar Alexi was in power from 1645-1678. but fine, We can strike some sort of deal. I will relinquish claims as long as I can be assured that Nippon does not attack Russia from those Islands...and that Russians are free to settle as they love the landscape.
 * Nippon agree not to attack Russia from Karafuto or the Chishima islands (Sakhalin & Kuril islands). Russian citizens are also allowed to emigrate to Nippon and become citizens too. Nippon also thanks Finland for their help with this issue.
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure. Industrialisation also continues throughout Finland. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 250km inward and expands Kōshi by 250km. Finland tells Russia very kindly to stop claiming Karafuto and the Chishima Islands as theirs and focus on Evenkia that they can take over and also tells Russia to take the Arctic islands above them (like OTL Servernaya Zemlya and New Siberian Islands) before someone else does. Meanwhile a few more Shinto shrines are built in the colonies, and a new small port is also built.
 * I think you need to send Lx a message on his talk page, as he appears to not be reading over Nippon's posts well enough. Also, it shouldn't take so long to take over Karafuto, you could probably reign over the whole island by next year.
 * ​Turan continues to work on its military.Turan offers a deal to Russia asking for the Caucus region and Kazakhstan(we are willing to pay the price to re-unite with our Turkic brethren). Could someone please do the war algorithym.
 * Most of the Caucasus is Armenian dominated, and the main minorities would be Georgian, Persian, and Kurdish, not Turkish. Also, who are you going against in the war?
 * Well, there is an Azerbaijani population in the Caucasus... But the main reason I want the Caucasus is because it gives me access to Kazakhstan. And my war is against Bulgaria.
 * But you don't even border Armenia, not even by sea border. With the new stability and results algorithm, I want Scandinator to do the first new algorithm so I have an example to go on.
 * I didn't see anything new. Anyhow, it is the whole Caucuses in my intrest, and I have access to the Black sea...
 * Naples: Industrialization continues, with Cambio di Pablo's experimental factory being a great success, and a couple more factories, scattered about the nation, are in planning (although it will take a few decades before they make a significant portion of Neapolitan products). Urbanization continues as well. Istoias grows 2000 square kilometers as the people there begin to move northward. Naples recognizes the independence of all the nations that have broke away from Anglo-Germany, and recognizes the Itsaygahi dominance of Wales under the condition that Itsaygahi not destroy the religion of the Welsh people.
 * Madoc's army seizes control of the West Country, and Bristol is opened up to more Itsaygahan soldiers. The 'Indians' become a frequent sight in the West Country and South Wales. Meanwhile, Owain's army of Welshmen seize Merseyside and the Border Country area of England. Charter Port Princes and Marcher Lords place their sons as governors and administators of Welsh provinces, marrying them to Welsh noblewomen. The nation is renamed the Union of Cymbria. Itsaygahi solidifies its control over Cymbria. The Isle of Man is seized and turned into an Itsaygahan colony. Madoc's cousin Chanrak takes the place of governor of the island, and exercises a deep level of influence on the mainland. Elsewhere, the colony in West Africa is expanded.
 * Persia sends relief teams to the disaster zones and asks for Russia and China to help the people. The colony of New Tehran expands by 10x40 sq. mi. Expeditions throughout the island and the Amazon continue. THe expedition to Singapore is a sucess, having finding a successful pit stop. With their job done, they return home. The military and navy continues to be expanded and upgraded. They send diplomats to France-Sweden, proposing a co-op invasion of Srivijaya.
 * Naples will help Persia too, as long as they can get some of the territory as well. Remember, with the new result equation, the war should last at least 5 years so we can get all of the territory
 * Sure, let Naples join (you hearing this Naples?)
 * Naples, hoping to gain a new colony, as it has been almost 50 years since their colony of Vicia was founded, sends aid to Persia to help them recover from the earthquake, and promises help against Srivijaya in a future war.
 * Russia continues its Settlement of Siberia. The Russian Governement officialy makes torture ilegal. The enlightenement is starting to grip the people of Russia. The Rural populace start having large families, as it is now well known that many go into the cities to try to make a living. a roadwork project begins in russia. the Great Transcontinental road finished construction. Aid is sent to Persia in the form of money and certain soldiers. Russia, Lithuania, The Iroquois, Armenia, and Kazakhstan all petition Turan to abolish Slavery and Enslavement of Christians. They ask that Turan look towards russia, and econom without slaves as inspiration. RTOZhD starts building its first rail line in the Pacific. Meanwhile, RZhK is not doing as well, as prices soar. Reaserch on a new Train engine starts. Afrikanskaya Zemlya expands by 9000km.
 * The Vietnamese and Taiwanese continue to expand their militaries in preperation for the upcoming war.


 * Sweden develops its military. It expands Hodlaand by 9150sqkm.

1781
''' The union between Portugal and Spain is broken, with Spain getting the Australian and Algerian colonies and Portugal getting the former Incan colony and the OTL Tangiers colony. (this means they both go gray) '''

''' Spain's player, ManofSteele, is returning in around 10 days. I know him in IRL and he has not been able to access the internet during the Summer break as he has been out hiking and going to camps. Scan '''
 * Naples prepares its military for the coming conflict. Istoias expands 2000 square kilometers northward along the coast. The first gun factory is made for the preparations for the war with Srivijaya/Malaysia, but it only supplies a small amount of the guns. A small slave revolt occurs in Ricasolia, the only Neapolitan colony that still has slavery, but it is quickly quited down.
 * Turan keeps working on its militar, whilst spreading through Bulgaria. Turan offers 1000 golden lira for both Kazakhstan and Caucasia.
 * Just what will taking land you dont border, even by sea get you? and 1000 golden Lira for the caucasus and Kazakhstan wont work. thats only bout 500 kilos of gold. THe population of the caucasus is mostly cossacks and Armenians and Georgeans. Byt Kazakhstan is turic...but too far away from your borders to make it worth buying.
 * the model of steam engine invented by Herczog continues to replace the old o ne, Meanwhile, the armament "industry" grows.Egypt continues updating its military, and riots against Hungarian rule start on Goa and surroundings.Magyar Dél-Amerikabán expands 2750 sq km inland.
 * Catherine dubs a cossack fortress in the Kuban Ekaterinodar(modern day Krasnodar). Siberian Settlement continues, as it is almost complete, Russains celebrate. THe Far East Gubernia is named and its capital is Nicolaevsk, although Vladivostok is ready to compete for that title, as it is growing larger and larger by the year, faster than Nicolaevsk. It is predicted that IN 1790 the Popultion of Vladivostok will rise to 250 000, more than Nicolaevsk's 240 000. Russian Senate becomes very very complicated as it is not fullyapointed. the Governors are apointed by the Emperor, the Senators are appointed by the Governor, and the Empreror may mor may not have a say in who gets appointed as what. The Enlightenment catches up in Russia's Elite. Russia enters negotiations with Nippon about the situation of Russian Settlement of Sahalin. Russian America(Alaska) expands by 3000 km
 * Nippon continues to expand into Karafuto as the Karafuto Reclamation war continues, but Commander Tanuma Okitsugu expects the war to be over in the next 5 years which the Shogun is pleased by. The Shimazu clan of Kagoshima also decide to get involved in the tropical goods trade, and the Satsuma Corporation is set up to start setting up plantations in Satotochi colony growing tropical fruits and sugar. This causes Satotochi to expand by 800 sq km as new plantations are set up by the Satsuma Corporation.
 * Cymbria is secured, and a peace signed with England. Wales, the West Country, the Borders and Merseyside are all recognised as sovereign land of the new Union. Owain pledges allegiance to his Itsaygahan patrons, not like they've got a lot of choice. Itsaygahi starts to show a decidedly unhealthy interest in the AGC's former colonies. Noovelongahi (West Africa) is expanded. The military is reformed. Madoc becomes Owain's chief minister and acts as a middleman between the Marcher Lord administrators and the central Cymbrian government. Madoc and Owain institute a program of 'Levelling' stripping land from noblemen and redistributing it amongst the common layfolk.
 * Persia continues to build up its military and navy and continues to upgrade them. New Tehran expands by 40x10 sq. mi. Expeditions on the island and the Amazon continue. They ask Russia to sell Kazakhstan for 10 billion ruble.
 * China continues to industrialize. The colony expands by 3800 sq km up the Gulf Coast.
 * The Vietnamese and Taiwanese continue to expand their military for the upcoming war.
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure. Industrialisation also continues throughout Finland. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 250km inward and expands Kōshi by 250km. Meanwhile a few Karelians travel to the Finnish colonies and teach them about, as well as helping them industrialise.
 * Sweden upgrades its military. It expands Thorlaand by 9150sqkm southward at the tip of Hudson Bay.

1782
''' The Pueblo Indians form a nation about the size of Austria in their territory. Meanwhile, in OTL Colombia the Muisca Confederation manages to develop from a confederacy of tribes to a true, civilized nation the size of their OTL territory. '''
 * Naples continues to build up its military in preparation for the war. Istoias and Ricasolia both grow by 1500 square kilometers. Another weapons factory is built. Benvolio III sends a message to Hungary, asking the state of his sister Maria, who was married to prince Janos.
 * The Vietnamese and Taiwanese continue to expand their militaries in preperation for the upcoming war.
 * Persia continues to expand and upgrade its military and navy. After hearing about the news of industrialization, they decide to catch up with the industrializing nations. They establish a plan to modernize and industrialize the country: Persia should use its colony in OTL Brazil as a place to grow cash crops, encourage the buildng of railroads in the country, and ask for other industrialized nations for technical assistence. New Tehran expands by 10x40 sq mi. They begin settlements at the island and bases and pitstops across the Amazon. They decide to send an expedition to the westernmost part of the Amazon to discover its source.
 * Railroads are only available from Stage 2, which for Persia, wil start in 1790, technically, but only as experimental technology.
 * Nippon continues to expand into Karafuto as the Karafuto Reclamation war continues, and the military is expanded to help the war effort. Satotochi colony also expands by 800 sq km as new plantations are set up by the Satsuma Corporation.
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 250km inward and expands Kōshi by 250km.
 * China constructs a railroad connecting Beijing with its surrounding districts. This yields major economic and militaristic success.
 * France builds up its military. The Emperor dies and his son become August I Harold. He asks for the loyalty's confirmation from the chancellors of Sweden and Greenland. He offers the ICR and Turan the oportunity to become full members of the Franco-Swedish Parliament, with the industrial and military privileges that it involves. A new Caliph, called Suleyman, is defied by the new sultan of Argelia, Djem, who doesn't accept the new elective caliphate. The Sultan is exiled to Songhay, and his ten year old brother, Mehmet, becomes Sultan.
 * Sweden confirms its loyalty to France and develops its military. Sweden's railroad is now at the halfway point between Stocholm and Malmo. Asgard is expanded by 9150sqkm.

1783
''' An earthquake decimates the city of Calabria in Naples leaving 35,000 dead. Famine hits Japan and is worsened by the eruption of Asama-Yama which kills 20,000 people and renders the agricultural Shinano and Kuzuke provinces of unproductive for many years to come. '''

''' Meanwhile a huge explosion shakes Iceland... Laki has erupted. The sky darkens over Iceland as the lava and lahar flows kill 2,000... The ash cloud sweeps across Southern Scandinavia before turning south and blanketing continental Europe in thick ashy smog making all nautical navigation immpossible from Greenland to Lithuania and Italy to Sweden. The effects are especially bad in the British Isles with 23,000 dead from sulfur dioxide posioning and a further 8,000 die in Iceland due to flouride posioning. Many thousands die of similar causes across Europe. Unpredictable weather sweeps across Europe causing heatwaves, thunderstorms and hail across the continent destroying crops. This all ends with the dissipation of the ash cloud in Autumn. But many more have died in Iceland, the former Hanthawaddian colony and Greenland due to lack of supplies. '''

''' Meanwhile Russia, Sweden, Finland and the British Isles must deal with one of the harshest winters ever, whilst the rest of Europe is subjected to a colder winter as well. The Winter of North America is also very cold as well, with places as far south as Itsaygahi suffering colder than normal weather.  Oh boy, here goes perhaps the first worldwide disaster...'''


 * There complete. and BTW I tend to update the mod posts in chunks if it is big my computer does not like big uploads.
 * Note to players: if your nation is affected, and your turns in this turn and next don't even mention the disasters, I will be very annoyed.
 * Iceland isn't the official name of the country. 
 * It's the name of the island


 * Naples continues to build up its military in preparation of the upcoming war with the Malays for the first part of the year, with Ricasolia and Istoias both growing by about 500 square kilometers. The economy of the nation was improving, until the devestation in Calabria occured. The new resources from the expanding colonies are used to help Calabria, but they are unable to send any more when smog clouds prevent travel out of the Mediterranean sea. Naples is not hit as badly as the northern Europeans, but as the winter begins many people predict that next year will be a bad one for crops.


 * Persia continues to build up and upgrade their military and navy, They continue their industrialization plan, with settlers flocking to the colonies in OTL Brazil. New Tehran expands by 10x40 sq mi. New settlements are springing up all across the Amazon. Farms for cash crops and food stuffs are being grown all over. The plants of the rainforest are being studied, and slaves are brought from Africa (in non-player controlled areas) to do the plantation work.
 * Emperor Mengistu becomes very ill and leaves the senate to live in a private estate for a while. His appointed Acting Emperor (not his son, but another important politician) continues the senate. The government manages to shut down some illegal slave trading organizations, and slowly starts to be seen as Anti-slavery.
 * Sweden continues military development. The smog cloud covers Scandinavia and the nobility send a fast ship to France to warn them of the red sun and black fog. Communication with the Swedish colonies is able to barely continue and even then intermittently as some Swedish ships brave the Northeast Passage to deliver the news. The harvest is completed barely in time for the summer crops as a vast hailstorm destroys the Swedish winter crops causing a huge drop in projected food supplies. The Saami in the north are co-ordinated by their Saami lord (the one that leads Sweden) into providing aid for the cities in the south with the fishing methods and reindeer meat to prevent starvation in southern Sweden. With the smog clearing in Autumn the ships are able to reach the colonies and obtain the surplus food and furs for the Swedish nation. The furs from the Saami reindeer and the colonies are given out to the working class as the winter grows especially harsh. Fjordlaand supplies food to the Swedish colonies cut off from Sweden during the smog period and thus expands 9150sqkm inland.
 * IN Russia, The communications with the colonies can only go through the Mediterranean, as the passages form the Baltic have been skewed. the Northeast Passage has attracted much traffic, and that benefits the economies of northern cities. Empress Catherine asks all the Russian people to withstand the winter, as "the harshest in a long age in Europe cant even compare to winters in regular Irkutsk" where normal temperatures reach -40 and sometimes -50 (this isn't a joke, Irkutsk suffered a week where the temp. was -48, -49 and -52 centigrade last year). The Russian people, already used to winter, have less of a problem dealing with this than Lithuanians. Although, deaths by freezing increase by 200%(over the not many of last year), people are just in the middle of suffering the natural cycle of things, as people prepare for an unusually hot summer that usually follows the coldest of winters and a foreign invasion. Russian colonies enjoy much more industrial activity as they have to make up with limited trade with Russia proper. So they expand settlements to build new factories. Russian Sailors also bring the first Steam engine to New Zealand, witch expands by 9000km. The Russian colonies are amping with excitement as Catherine orders construction of one rail link per colony by the end of 1810. Canada and Novorossiya are first on the line. Rate of colonial industrialization skyrockets as they must create industry to replace trade with Russia. Enlightenment continues with Russia.
 * Spain and Gibraltar got the smog the Med is closed.
 * All I need is the straits of Gibraltar cross them, I can follow the African coast to the end of the smog and I can cross into America from there. 
 * he Emperor August I Harold of France and Sweden reacts to the crisis. He sends supplies to Sweden, specially during the winter. Also some soldiers are commanded to go north and help to stop any revolt or disturbance. The Lord Commander of the Order of Saint Robert sends himself some supplies to Sweden, but also the other affected countries, specially Finland (trying to get popularity between the Finnish people) and Greenland (another country under the rule of the Parliament). Some men of the order go help Naples and Japan be cause of the local disasters. The Emperor asks for emergency powers, and the Parliament agrees. So he takes control of the colonies and their militias and judiciary power. He commands the southern colonies (Terre de Feu, Patagonie, Malouinas and Songhay, and the Swedish colonies) to send supplies to support the northern affected colonies, like Nouvelle France, and the countries of Europe, and also the trading posts in Itsaygahi and Greenland. Rousseau supports the anti-slavery party in that country. Meanwhile, many people die in Nouvelle France and the northern France, so the king of Burgundy, who was in travel in Flanders, dies, and his son Edward I becomes king. Djem, exiled in Haiti, starts to become popular in the colonies, taking advantage of the difficult communication with the motherland. He starts a sort of "conservative party" that is opposed no only to the current governments of Arabia and Algeria, but also the emperor himself, the democratization of the Parliament, the autonomy of the Swedish states and even the religious tolerance. Many haitians become muslims, so as patagoniens, novo-french and malouinese. Mehmet of Algeria, under a regency council, expands Algeria 3050 sq km. In résumé, the french economy is lower than ever in the past decade, the disturbances are regular and the law and charity forces are exhausted.
 * The Vietnamese and Taiwanese continue to expand their military for the upcoming war. The Vietnamese want to send aid to the rest of Europe, but have to prioritize Vietnamese Ireland over all others. The German states get a trickle of aid, but most of it is send to the Vietnamese Ireland colony. The concern Vietnamese authorities show to their Irish subjects endears them to the protection they provide. Most are glad that the petty feuds between the Irish clans have been tamed by Vietnamese intervention.
 * Industrialization continues, and Herczog's model of engine continues to be adopted by the manufacturing workshops which have steam engines.Meanwhile, communication with all colonies is cut off due to the smog clouds.the only nautical trade possible is with Greece.Meanwhile, unbeknownest to Hungary, the independence movement on India grow, and the city of Govapuri declares independence.Indeopendence movements also grow in the Kalikut area.Meanwhile, in Kandy, Rajadhji assumes the throne after the death of King Kirti Sri the previous year. Magyár Dél-Amerikabán expands 3050 sq km.
 * Sorry that i didn't post the previous year, i had ran out of ideas.
 * Nippon thanks France for the aid, especially when France has her own problems to deal with. Satotochi colony is expanded by 800 sq km and more plantations are set up to offset the rice shortage caused by the famine in Japan. A large number of the farmers losing all of their crops thanks to the famine decide to join the army so they can actually get some food, otherwise production is stepped up in other areas to offset the shortage in the famine effected areas. Nippon continues to expand into Karafuto as the Karafuto Reclamation war continues, but there are troubles with lack of supplies thanks to the famine so expansion slows down a bit. Meanwhile the rebuilding of the buildings destroyed by Asama-Yama starts.
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 250km inward and expands Kōshi by 250km. The Finnish colonies also send aid and food and supplies to Nippon. Meanwhile, mainland Finland also experience a bad winter, though most are used to it, however some 1000 something die. The Finnish artist gets an idea and draws the Suomi-neito dealing with a bad storm, waving the Finnish flag with pride and strength (aka it encourages the Finns to not give in as there is hope).
 * Shipping from Itsaygahi to Cymbria ceases for the year, while Itsaygahi deals with the inevitable crop failures that result from the poor weather. It is worse in Cymbria. Madoc and Owain however, use it to consolidate the Levelling and to enact its more extreme tenets while they are safe from Itsaygahan interference. Farms are stripped from Feudal Lords and placed under 'The Administration', run by the local community with a collective granary. Madoc's cousin, the colonial governor of Man turns a blind eye to these blatantly radical Classist policies. Meanwhile, the institution of slavery is looking increasingly tired in Itsaygahi. The harvest was poor despite such cheap labour, and little profit is being extracted from them. There are increasing calls for the slaves to be emancipated. There are calls for the colony of Noovelongahi to be utilised as a 'reverse colony'. It had originally been founded as a trade station for slaves brought in from the kings further inland, but its intention now is to be the core of a colony of freed slaves transported away from Itsaygahi back to Africa.
 * China offers help to its allies affected by the disasters. Meanwhile, they take the advantage of the Commonwealth's split to buy its colony in California. In mainland China, a railroad system connecting the major coastal cities and Beijing is proposed. Construction starts in Beijing that November and Shanghai that December.

1784
''' With the extra volume of snow from the winter melting, floods sweep down the Mississippi River. Large tracts of Germany and Hungary are also flooded in the autumn. This results in the bogging down of the main Brandenburgan force in Saxonia. Flemland, Westphalia, Rhineland, and Hanover all successfully declare independence, and part of Brandenburg joins Moravia. Prussian forces and foreign mercenaries seize Berlin and Brandenburg is forced to allow Prussian independence with a good section of Brandenburg coastline. Austria sustains a revolt and decends into civil disorder with the nobility fleeing to Hungary. '''

''' West Africa, Egypt and India are hit by a huge famine and drought as the monsoon system did not deposit enough rain the previous year due to the ash. Europe sustains violent weather patterns with bad heatwaves across continental Europe bringing drought in the summer. Japans famine continues though shows signs of easing. '''

''' The colony in Greenland loses 75% of its population due to the harsh winter and the ice blockading all communication and supplies for 5 months. This is because the Gulf Stream current cooled due to the presense of ice in the Gulf of Mexico. The remaining colonists attempt to leave the colony. A similar story occurs in Iceland with a revolt against the Hanthawaddian governor; deposing him and replacing him with a Norweign Icelandic noble. The Mon population in Scandinavia, Kola and Iceland has declined by 40% overall with 60% of Icelandic Mons dying of the frigid temperatures. England allows Welsh independence but starts attacking Scotland hoping their defences will be weakened by the events of the last two years. '''

''' In Australia, unoticed by the majority of the world, an Aborigine nation forms across all of Tasmania. '''
 * The Vietnamese and Taiwanese continue to expand their military for their upcoming war in Morocco. The Vietnamese, outraged at the English attack on Scotland, begin sending massive amounts of volunteers to Scotland via the Irish colony. Most high-ranking Vietnamese officials want to finish what they started in the War of Swedish Sucession and officially make the Scottish Republic either a Vietnamese vassal or client state.
 * Scandinator, I really think Vietnam has a much better claim to Scotland than you do at this point
 * I'm not trying to claim Scotland at all.
 * I didn't want to start Great Northern War 6 or whatever over Scotland, since you were the only other person who could claim any part of Scotland, I was afraid such a thing would happen.
 * Well, since you are claiming Scotland can I have England or vica-versa?
 * Since Vietnam has gotten Scotland, I see no reason why anyone would contest Sweden's claim over England. Sort of funny how Britain, the biggest colonizer in our timeline, is being carved up as colonies of other nations in this one
 * Not really, they were incredibily weak until Napoleon wiped out the continental powers and then got slamed by Britain making Britain the greatest power in the world. Also industization helped them.


 * Naples will not interfere with Vietnam taking over Scotland as long as the Scots are independent in their own internal affairs. Naples continues the military buildup, and Istoias is expanded by 2000 square kilometers. They send food to Tamilia to help the famine.
 * Persia continues to build up its military and navy. They continue their plan, as their control over the Amazon River increases, allowing the colonies to prosper. Newer and newer settlements are being established at the Amazon river. The expedition finally finds the source of the Amazon at the Andes, but decide to turn back since their answer is officially found. Persia is horrified of the events in its Indian territories and immedietly sends aid to the region. They begin to improve and expand their road system because of this. the inustrialization continues. They ask Russia to buy Kazakhstan for 10 billion ruble.
 * The Hungarian government sends aid to the flooded areas, which coomprised most of Northern and Eastern Hungary.Meanwhile, the weather atterns of this and the previous year cause crops to fail.Greece tries to send help. Meanwhile, the lack of assistance from the Hungarian government leads to dissatisfaction with the overnment growing on India, and the cities around Govapuri join it.Troops continue in the Austrian borders, to avoid revolts on Hungary, as Austria has fallen into civil disarray. Namib expands 2750 sq km.
 * France builds up its military. The Emperor claims Iceland to the new governor, offering him be the Prince of such island. At the same time, he commands Turan to send back the colonists to Greenland or he will claim the colony for himself again (for Sweden, in fact). With the crisis, a lot of people from the north of France and the colonies fleed to Arabia, Argelia and Songhay. Many of them are supporters of the exiled Djem, who traveled to Songhay to spread the word of Allah, reducing the popularity and influence of the Order of Saint Robert and the Parliament itself. The Emperor doesn't think that the vietnamese attempt to obatin the control of Scotland is a violation of the treaties signed after the War of Swedish Succession. He thinks in fact that he may conquest England and Wales, and calls the suomi-swedish leader to discuss the posibility of invade Britain. The caliph encourages the egyptians to emmigrate to Arabia, but Djem is using his own influence to send aid independently to his relative, the sultan of Egypt, and get his support to his claim on the algerian and arabian thrones. The Emperor decides to move the court and the Parliament to Marseille for one year, because there are already deaths in Paris. In Haiti and Nouvelle France the rebellions become more common, the same as the northern France and the southern Burgundy (waldensians).
 * How can France claim Iceland? And Turan's Greenland colony was destroyed in the moderator event, due to the volcano everyone either died or fled back to Europe.
 * I think that they are claiming Iceland in behalf of Sweden.
 * Exactly.
 * Sweden's crop fails for the second year in a row. Denmark sends aid but there is only so much the little country can do. Sweden braces for another year of near-starvation as belts are tightened. The Swedish navy sails up the Thames and threatens to bomb London to smithereens resulting in the surrender of the English nobles residing there. the Saami lord knows that Sweden cannot control England as part of its empire yet and allows England form an uneven diplomatic union of sorts with Sweden as its leader. Sweden takes over the entire Eastern and Southern coastline of England in this way. Most areas surrender quickly especially after Sweden is forced to make an example of Hastings. The town is literally blasted off the map after the local noble refused to surrender to the far superior Swedish firepower. Sweden's military is given quite a bit of experience after all these years of inactivity and the officers develop much needed command skills. Sweden prepares to launch an English-lead campaign into the midlands and West coast next year. In other news, Fjorlaand declares independence but Swedish influence in their council of nobles results in the colony merely achieving partial independence and they have now essentially become a puppet state of Sweden. A ship from Fjordlaand is lost whilst sailing to New Sweden and lands in the OTL Galapagos archipelago. Sweden establishes a trade post naming the islands the Wonderlaand Isles due to the high number of unique species there. Meanwhile Asgard expands 9150 sqkm.
 * Nippon continues tto expand into Karafuto as the Karafuto Reclamation war continues. More food supplies are brought in from aboard as the famine continues, but lots of the poor peasants unable to afford food die. Satotochi colony is expanded by 800 sq km and more plantations are set up to offset the rice shortage caused by the famine in Japan. The Shogun also allows food handouts to the poor in towns across Nippon if they become reverse troops in the army. Thanks to this, and the ongoing war in Karafuto, the Nipponese military power increases.
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 250km inward and expands Kōshi by 250km. Finland continues to send food supplies to Nippon as well, though most of it is from the Finnish colonies. The heat wave attacks Finland by surprise, and some farms fail to grow stuff. Meanwhile, some Shinto shrines are repaired as some were damaged thanks to the bad winter the Finns had.
 * Madoc warns the Swedes that an invasion of Cymbria using English soldiers will not be tolerated. The floods of this year help Madoc and Owain destroy the last of the old aristocracy and complete the Levelling. Itsaygahi remains isolated from Cymbria and assumes that all is going well. The flooding of the Mixxixxippi causes the Natchez civilisation that it dominant along the valley to collapse. Northern horse tribes rise against the Natchez, along with the peasant farmers. The north is separated as a new province of Minsauto. However, the rebellions continue, feeding into a dissatisfaction with Marcher Lord rule and a an enamour with Classist-Racialist views.
 * Charles III died and the throne passed to the Emperor of France. The Burgundian parliament need to increase their influence in France leads to elections for a new Chancellor of Burgundy (in personal union with France). The new Chancellor is shown as Johann Karl: conservative, French nationalist and Burgundian regionalist. As a first position in his office has sent several economic ships to the French and Sweden economic to increase the internal business Burgundy. Johann Karl calls the Spanish area of Algeria, before the death of Charles II belonged to Burgundy. And remember to Spain that there are still claims that finally refused to Spain due to the Castilian Empire when it conquered much of France. In the same way the Chancellor begins to move troops to the border with Lombardy (Marseille area) and are spreading in the French that are released from the confederation of Lombardy. For now just a strain.
 * To avoid any misunderstanding, yes, I allow Jaeden to re-join as Burgundy. Also he gets the colony of Guinée and now Burgundy is in perosnal union with France, as Sweden.
 * Siberian settlement continues and is nearly complete. The RUssian army is updated with more moder equipment as the farmers are dealing with the droght. Although, russia's Kuban and Caucasia regions are fairing better than usual, and so is the pacific coast. RZhK Merges with RZhD and RZhD officialy becomes the "passenger" and RZhK the "transport" company. As RUssians prepare for another year, nothing is as comparable as the drought of 1508. Russia sends some money to its co-confederate Finland to deal with the crisis. People are hopeful that this lack of crop in the Volga region can be over by next year. Canada expands 9000km

1785
''' The famine in West Africa, Egypt and India end. The death toll in West Africa was only around 100,000 but in Egypt that number reached one-sixth of the total population and in India another 11,000,000 die. The former Indian AGC colony collapses and half goes to each Hanthawaddy and Sweden. '''

''' Meanwhile in Europe eratic weather continues with France surprizingly producing a surplus harvest. Brandenburg cracks down on the Hanover independence movement mercilessly crushing the state but in leaving their southern border unguarded, Bavaria declares independence. England's invasion of Scotland collapses spectacularly. Meanwhile internal movements in the Lombard Confederation result in the Western French speaking area to declare independence and petition to join France. '''

''' Evenkia's new king relizes the futility of holding out against Russia and petitions Russia to fully annex the tiny nation as long as Evenkia's leader is guaranteed a seat in the Duma. Turan's Greenland colony collapses entirely and is totally abandoned as starvation and disease kill off 99% of the remaining colonists. Ge expands in a bid to reach the mythical sea and does but in the process non-expansionist South Ge splits off from the main Ge nation. Zululand doubles in size along with Puntland which now touches the Northern Swahili kingdoms. Pedang annexes Bali. '''


 * How come every other disaster in the whole game has followed what historically occured, yet for this one you give France a huge advantage when in real life they had a huge famine right now? It seems biased that France gets to ignore history to become stronger. Every other nation that has had a historical famine has either been forced to suffer through it. Why does Galaguerra get special treatment?

From Wikipedia: "In France a sequence of extremes included a surplus harvest in 1785 that caused poverty for rural workers, accompanied by droughts and bad winters and summers, including a violent hailstorm in 1788 that destroyed crops."


 * Sorry if a don't get it, but my english is not so good as I would like it to be, and I'm not sure what "surplus harvest" means. In my dictionary, it seems like an excess of crops, ergo, extra food resources to trade and consume, but may be I'm wrong. Someone could give me a definition?


 * Yes that definition is correct.
 * Then that is abundance. How could it cause poverty?
 * Because they had an idiot for their king who was completly out of touch with the peasants. He rasied taxes because he thought they had oh so much grain. Trust me I have studied the French Revolution and the events leading up to it extremely well as part of my History classes
 * But now there is a different king, and he haven't raised the taxes (by now, at least).


 * Bavaria already declared independence in a previous mod post.
 * Oh, sorry. I'm just confused to how a surplus could cause poverty for the farmers, wouldn't that make them richer?
 * The Vietnamese have made the Scots a client state of their Empire. That means Scotland needs to be coloured with Vietnam's client/vassal state colour and not grey.


 * Persia, deciding to take advantage of the situation in India, declares war on Bharat. They crush the armies due to the weakening by the famine. The policy of industrialization continues. The control of the Amazon increases and new settlements are popping all over the place. New Tehran expands by 40x10 sq. mi. The region is now a producer of textiles and other consumer goods due to the cash crops, communities, and factories established there. it asks Russia to but Kazakhstan for 10 billion ruble. The industrialization and modernization of Persia continues, as they ask Russia for technical assistence. Gold is discovered in the northern part of OTL Brazil, flocking immigrants from Persia to the region. New modern ports are being built all over the coasts of Persia.
 * You only border one Indian state, and there is only really 1 independent one left, with it having two vassals.
 * Sweden sends supplies to Persia from Swedish India and asks to obtain a chunk of Bharat and its vassals.
 * Persia agrees.
 * Naples continues to prepare its military, eyeing the Malay nation in the far east. Yet they have a greater threat, developing under their own noses. Istoias expands 2000 square kilometers, sending more resources back to Naples, helping the Neapolitan economy and encouraging more industrialization. Naples sends word to France that they don't want France to rule over any parts of Lombardy historically Italian, but the French western parts will cause no conflict. Meanwhile, in Ricasolia, a slave named Tranio Oyolia escapes from his master, but instead of hiding out in the jungles among the tribes like normal, he begins to sneak around with sympathetic natives, freeing more slaves, a few of whom join his group, known as I Liberatori (the liberators).
 * The UAA sends military support to Italy, to help Naples. Also, if you conquer most of Italy, then I reccomend Naples changed to Italy.
 * Naples isn't attacking anywhere now, they are preparing for a war in the future.
 * The Vietnamese and Taiwanese coninue expanding their military to prepare for the upcoming war in Morocco. The Vietnamese volunteers, working with Scottish soldiers, manage to expel English forces from Scotland. They manage to advance to the ruins of Hadrian's Wall, which they start rebuilding to create the new defensive border between Scotland and England. The finished wall is to be a somewhat downsized replica of the Great Wall of China. The Vietnamese authorities officially found a new Scottish government, which is a semi-independant client state of Vietnam. Most Scottish citizens celebrate the old regime's end, as it had been a corrupt oligarchy run the exiled Swedish "republicans" who founded Scotland. The Emperor dies suddenly in mysterious circumstances without an heir. The Vietnamese search for a relative to take the throne of Vietnam. They discover Ba Mai Nguyễn, who was previously a minor countess in the colony of New Vietnam. She, as the closest relative to the Emperor, is the heir to the Lotus Throne. She accepts the crown, and she is crowned Empress Mai II in an elaborate ceremony.
 * Spain's player, ManofSteele, was going to propose a division of Morocco between Vietnam and Spain. He returns in a week from his holidays.
 * Vietnam has a much stronger claim to Morrocco than Spain is, if they can conquer it before then I don't see why they should have to wait for someone else when they are doing all the work.
 * Spain is right above Morocco and I doubt that you will get 33% on your own. If Spain led the conflict their stability value would win easily. Also I will not allow Vietnam to engage in any wars until I get a definate answer on the stability start year.
 * It's official now. 1785.
 * The United African allies, after a series of trades with the nation of Kongo, manage to add it to their sphere of influence (though it refuses to join the UAA).
 * France builds up its military. The Parliament decides to give the annexed part of Lombardy to Burgundy as a gift, now that it is a kingdom in direct union with the Emperor. The Emperor asks permission to the chancellor of Sweden to rise his title from "king of Sweden and Denmark" to "Emperor". He aprooves the sweidhs support to Persia in Bharat and sends some troops from France and Edessa-Antioch to get a piece of the cake. Meanwhile, the exiled Djem proclaims himself "Caliph-in-exile" or "Caliph of Songhay", where the direct confrontations between two factions are very common now. These factions are the parliamentaries and catholics in the coast, led by the Order of Saint Robert, and the islamic Djemist army, led by Djem and his supporters. The Caliph asks the Parliament to call Djem before justice and execute him. but the Emperor (head of the judiciary power) doesn't consider him a menace. The regency council of Algeria does send some reinforcements to the Parliament's faction in Songhay. France asks again Iceland to join it. The Emperor is glad with the new state of the french economy, and he moves the court to Paris again. But he refuses to give up the direct control of the colonial militias.
 * Since Iceland, having formerly been controlled by Detectivekenny, is under his control you'll have to wait for him to return to be able to get a response
 * The crops continue to fail, although the phenomenon is not so widespread as in 1784.Communication with the colonies continues closed off, and efforts to rebuild the cities affected by the floods are made.Meanwhile, Greece continues to send help, although limitedly.Neos Preveza expands 2750 sq km.
 * Contact between Cymbria and Itsaygahi is re-established. There is a combination of horror and relief at the outcome of the two-year isolation. Relief at the survival of Cymbria as a functioning unit, horror at the excesses of the Levelling and the establishment of a truly Classist radical state. News of the success of Cymbria despite floods and poor harvests reaches Itsaygahi and fans the Natchez riots into a fire. The other former tributary provinces also burst into revolution, as does the Chartered Gulf Province. The Second Itsaygahan Civil War has begun.
 * Nippon's agricultural sector begins to approach its pre-famine levels of productivity, thanks a lot to more plantations being founded in Satotochi as the colony expands by 800 sq km. Furthermore Nippon continues to expand into Karafuto as the Karafuto Reclamation war continues. Finland is thanked greatly for all the aid it sent too. (when is this blooming war gonna be over mods & mapmakers? Its former Japanese warlords so I'm sure some of them would join the Nipponese side and its been going on for 8 years. Is the end in sight? VonGlusenburg  (talk to Von!) 11:16, January 21, 2012 (UTC)).
 * You could have finished it 6 years ago =.=
 * Didn't you here me when I repeatedly said you could do it in only 1 or 2 years?
 * Yeah I saw all that, but the map was never updated to show the expansion taking over the island so I thought I had to wait longer. Should I just edit the map to show most of Karafuto under Nipponese control and end it next year?
 * I will add it in 1790.You can end the war in 1785, if you want.
 * I've changed the 1785 map to show most of Nippon controlling Karafuto, the war ends next year & all of Karafuto will be Nipponese on the 1790 map. Otherwise it looks weird how in one year I go and conquer all of Karafuto when it took be 8 years to take that little bit.
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 250km inward and expands Kōshi by 250km. Some farms begin working again, though its not saying much. All Shinto shrines that had been damaged are repaired. Meanwhile, Finland establishes plans to take down the (the ones that are in grey, that is) but won't fight it just yet.
 * Burgundy is responsible for managing the area of ​​Marseille as more autonomy. The Chancellor of Burgundy declares war on Lombardy and popular support (from the French zone) starts moving by small French-speaking peoples, trying to take Milan. he economy begins to rise due to the "war economy" and seems to have good results, but the Chancellor is concerned about the economy after the war of Lombardy. Industrialization moves, but at a slower pace and there are many expenses to try to improve it, in vain. The Chancellor will visit the "Mother Country" (France) to discuss the future of Marseille and the possible idea of ​​following the Swedish industrial model all parts of the Empire.Burgundy-Italia.png
 * Naples demands that Burgundy cease to attack Italian-speaking areas. Burgundy can take the French-speaking areas, but moving into the Italian speaking areas such as Milan will result in war with Naples.
 * There is no necessity of war. The french speaking areas already joined Burgundy, so if you declare war on Lombardy you are attempting to take the italian-speaking lands, and I jsut can't allow it.
 * Yemen expands on his Somalian colony by 800sq. km
 * The rest of England is forced into submission as Sweden and England sign a treaty binding England to Sweden in an unequal diplomatic union. Sweden is barely able to produce a crop but with French supplies the Swedish people are well fed this year. The Swedish military expands. Asgard and New Sweden claim new coastal areas totaling 1550sqkm and Wunderlaand expands to the limit. Fjordlaand extends its northern border by 5 px along the entire border.
 * Turan forces convicts to populate in Greenland. The Turkish colony expands by 800km2.
 * Russian Tsarina accepts the evenkian governement's proposal and anexes it, giving it the status of a "special guberia" for 20 years, it gives the evenkian council the power to nominate a person for the position of Governor, and the power to remove the governor. Russian Settlement of siberia continues. the Famines of the Volga are better than last year.
 * China gives more aid to its affected allies. In mainland China, the trans-coastal railroad is continued, connecting many cities with each other. A Chinese scientist develops a new, more efficient locamotive. In America, China expands its colony purchased from the Commonwealth by 3800 sq km south.

1786
''' Strange weather patterns continue to plague Western Europe. France decends back into famine whilst weather conditions over Scandinavia and Eastern Europe stabilize '''


 * Turan is willing to pay 500 kilos of gold for Caucasia and Kazakhstan, but wonders if the Crimean Peninsula could be thrown into the deal. Turkish troops begin to get weary of the war in Bulgaria. Turan improves the living conditions for the poor by starting state run factories.
 * You can finish your war with Bulgaria whenever you want, you won. However, Lx already said that he was not going to sell you the territory, and I have to rule against such an expansion anyways, you would be increasing your territory more than 10 times the present size, with a huge segment of the population being non-Turkish in ethnicity. There is no way you could possibly control your nation.
 * I wouldn't fully integrate Kazakhstan right away. And I only recall him saying that it wasn't worth me buying, not that he wouldn't sell it to me...
 * If you read what he said, he said 500 kilos was not enough to buy it. Furthermore, the value of all of that territory is greater than ever scrap of gold in Turan, your nation would be bankrupted and fall into civil disarray due to that loss of currency. LxCaucasus (and the in-game czar) would be a fool to give away a fourth of his empire to a nation that is offering him something which provides no in-game bonus (or, in the czar's case, anything of nearly the worth of the land).
 * I say a fourth of a nation is kinda a streatch... Anyhow, I am revising my deal for Crimea and the Caucasus.
 * Actually, if he did it could be quite politically astute. Sell Turan the land, throw them into civil disarray, then invade to restore order, regaining the lost land, with little cash loss even a bit of gain and with a little extra to boot. But thats just an idea.
 * By only the Caucasus and Crimea would not throw me into civil disarray...
 * But the price needed to buy both Caucasus and Crimea would be high enough to cause the equivalent of a hyperinflation.
 * But neither of them are Turkish in ethnicity, they also would outnumber Turan and revolt against your nation. You could not control all of that territory which would be made up of people hostile you your nation, many of them people who fought for Russia against the Ottoman empire, almost all are Orthodox Christian, there's no way you could maintain control, expecially since that area is more powerful and more industrial than you. And 500 kilos of gold is only a few chests worth of gold, Russia probably collects more from the annual taxes of the Crimea alone.
 * They are not Turkish, but they are Turkic. The Azerbaijanis, then the Tatars.
 * You are forgetting the Georgians, the Ossetians, the Armenians, the Kalmyks, the Chechens, and large populations of Russians, none of whom would want to be under Turan. You cannot plausibly take over people who outnumber you and have better technology than you without them being devestated in some war. That's it.
 * The crops on Hungary start to have success again, and communication with the colonies is restored.Finally, word gets to Hungary that Govapuri declared independence, and with the northern cities joining it, this meant the loss of half the colony of India.no action is taken against Govapuri, as the colony is seen by many as useless.Neos Preveza expands 2750 sq km.Meanwhile, Newfoundland continues expanding.
 * What is the current state of the Hungarian royal family? I need to know if Maria has had any children with Janos.
 * Naples continues to expand its military during the spring of this year. However, by the summer, I Liberatori has become too dangerous to ignore. Many oppressed natives and freed Miscugli slaves have joined up with the liberators, and they are becoming a dangerous guerilla force. Naples sends a few troops, but doubts it's a real threat.
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 250km inward and expands Kōshi by 250km. A Finn musician decides to write a national anthem for the nation and creates a piece of music (some of which would have come from/be very similar to OTL ; different instruments obviously and sounds very Finnish instead) and writes lyrics too. She then shares it with the Finnish government, though while a few admit it the beat sounds a bit odd, the Finnish government decides to adopt it for now as an anthem. However, this causes another Finn musician to compose something better, but will take a while. Meanwhile, the Finnish painter teaches her daughter about how to draw/paint the Suomi-neito so when she dies, her art will continue in the family.
 * Persia advances throughout the only independent Indian state it is bordering. They ask Sweden to join on its side since it wanted to. They ask Russia to buy Kazakhstan for 10 billion ruble. The modernization and industrilization of the country continues, and also in its colonies in the Amazon. New Tehran expands by 10x40 sq. mi. The Amazon is officially under Persian control due to immigration by the mineral wealth and the booming economy. They begin plans to expand north and south.
 * You cannot afford a 10 billion loss in your currency.
 * There is also the simple fact that the number billion was not commonly used in 1786. 
 * Unfortunately for Itsaygahi, the rebels may be numerous and have great conviction, but the ruling regime controls the most economically productive areas. In Cymbria, agriculture is recovering despite difficulties with their roots in the Levelling meaning that production has not reached pre-disaster levels. Madoc prepares an army of Welshmen, other Cymbrians and a core of Jannisaries to return to Itsaygahi and open up a second front against the Union Body. Meanwhile, representatives from each of the liberated provinces assemble in Ehkanankegahu and declare the Levelled Assembly, the first step to a united Classist republic.
 * That doesn't sound very good. I don't know why anyone would willingly submit to what amounts to premature Communism.
 * The Vietnamese declare they will give plenty of financial and military aid to the Itsagahi government, as they declare that they are the true government of Itsagahi. The Vietnamese once again send large amounts of volunteers, whose battle experience would become instrumental in the future war with Morrocco. The Vietnamese fund numerous assasaination attempts against the traitor Madoc, who is reviled in Vietnam for his treacherous betrayal of his country.


 * Yemen expands their somalian territory 800sq.km-wide.
 * Nipponese forces defeat the last of the Karafuto warlords and thus complete the Nipponese annexation of Karafuto, and ending the Karafuto Reclamation war. Kamochatoka expands by 800 sq km too.
 * The Vietnamese and Taiwanese continue to expand their military for the upcoming war in Morocco.
 * The famine again strikes in France, and the emperor was wise enough to keep some harvest of the last year, but just enough for the capital and his main cities and strongholds. August I doesn't want to spend more resources than the necessary, so he reduces the merchandises sent to the colonies, making Djem obtain more supporters in his claiming of the algerian and arabian thrones. He decides tocall the arms against Rhineland, hoping that the conquest will sustain his people by a time. He wants to keep the throne of Sweden by a bit, and to conserve it he decides to give them some more autonomy to get popularity. He sends some merchindise to Scandinavia, from the past year's harvest, and also gives Sweden a few more seats in the Parliament. He offers the suomi lord of Sweden the title of Lord Paramount of Sweden. Djem's army expands Nouvelle France 2800 sq km.
 * In China, the construction of the Trans-Continental Railroad continues, connecting even more cities with each other. In America, the Baja colony is expanded 3800 sq km north.
 * Siberian Settlement is continuing, and nearly complete. A major city is founded in Kamchatka, as te netirety of Chukotka is claimed as only russian. Enlghtenment ideals contiue to be discussed. In the past decade, the ammount of "Child laborers" has gone up very much, and it is starting to worry many doctors. The russian people start to debate wether or not to outlaw this, and instead educate them. this point of view however isnt very much shared by the elite. More factories are built in large cities as moscow recuperates from its plague losses. The Church suggest everyone has large families. Industrial things in te colonies start to pich up, and a railroad is constructed by the RAZhD(RZhD in America) between Noviy vladimir and Novomoskovsk and one is planned between Hochelaga-Mon-Rayal and Stadakona-Kvebek. Population in American colonies reaches one million. Russian America expands more on the coast 3000km.(we realy need to amp up the colonial expansions, i dont think that the 3000 pixel is doing it, at this rate, it will take 1000 years mimimum to colonize the entire world if all the natoins colonized by the limit!). Meanwhile, the Polish king learns that last time he faught russia, they were nearly bankrupted, and starts thinking that this time it will be much easier to defeat russia's armies as he has done before. RUssia can spend some money on their military after the famines, and it improves the navy.
 * Sweden develops its military and sends voltunteers to fight Bharat. Wonderlaand expands to fill out the Galapagos Islands and obtains posts on Cocos Island to the north and Easter Island to the south. They also expand west and colonise OTL French Polynesia. Sweden's harvest are almost back to normal and Sweden thanks france for the help. All of England finally comes under Swedish control after the last rebels are defeated with the English army.

1787

 * Nippon begins to properly integrate the newly conquered Karafuto territories into the empire by building infrastructure, setting up new towns, rebuilding damaged towns following the war, and setting up the necessary prefectural administrators and governance. While this is going on Nippon agree to respect Russia's claim to Chukotka and agree not to expand Kamochatoka that far north; but Kamochatoka does expand by 600 sq km this year. Satotochi colony expands by 200 sq km too, as Satsuma Corp. set up more plantations. An alliance with Prussia is formed as well, as Nippon want to remain friends with their former colony and to protect Prussian sovereignty.
 * The Neapolitan military build-up continues. However, even as they build up the military, a great crisis occurs. I Liberatori lead a massive slave revolt in Ricasolia, and this time almost all of the slaves on the island revolt against the Neapolitan government. Naples' sens a small fleet to deal with what they feel will be a short, swift victory, but a hurrican destroys their fleet. By the end of the year, the Liberatori, led by Tranio Oyolia, have driven the Neapolitan slavemasters out of all of Ricasolia except for Porto di Morti.
 * THe King of Poland Taunts Russia by rejecting the part of the treaty that stated that Poland had to never claim the throne of lithuania. THis is interpreted as a decleration of War by the Russian Senate and The Russian Military along with the Cossack military is quickly mobilized. Troops from all over the Russian dominions, including some Iroquois Warriors who have been trained with rifles go to Russia to fight. This edit was simply for the Chance. More will come.-Lx (leave me a message) 01:25, January 23, 2012 (UTC)
 * I do see that we are allies, do you wish me to help?
 * You are not allowed to control the actions of NPC nations to this extent.
 * Check the War seciton in the Rules, I am fully allowed. " You may have any NPC declare war on you as long as it is plausible"
 * The keyword there is plausible. Poland is a tiny nation a hundredth the size of Russia. This is like El Salvador declaring war on the US, it's stupid and Poland would only do it if they were insane.
 * Considering that they just discovered that Russia nearly lost the first time and nearly got bankrupted, and that they would want retrobution, the Conditions make it not that implausible.
 * The only reason they almost won last time was because Sweden helped. Unless they had absolute assurance they would recieve massive aid, it would be suicide.
 * Woops...forgot that sweden helped...then russia just has to declare war because of them threatening to join lithuania agan or something.
 * Turan expands its Greenlandish colony another 800km2.
 * Persia begins to take over a part of Bharat territory. New Tehran expands by 40x10 sq. mi. The Amazon is now a trading center. Expeditions to the north and south begin. The Gold and other mineral wealth discovered in the north and south in OTL Northeastern Brazil is used to pay for the modernization and industrialization of the country. They ask Russia to buy Kazakhstan for 100 million ruble.
 * France starts to advance to Rhinlenad, and the Emperor asks for sweidish support. Now that England in in union with Sweden (and therefore, with France and Burgundy) he allow the english to send representatives to the Parliament and proclaims himself King of England, giving the suomi lord of Sweden (Does he have even a name?) the title of Lord Protector of England. France builds up its military. Djem travels to France to visit the emperor himself, asuring that he will not claim the algerian throne any more if the Emperor allows him to be the Lord Administrator of the French Colonies in America. Due the popularity and empathy of Djem, and his talent to persuade people, the Emperor decides to give him the title. Djem stays for a few months in the capital, and seems to be very popular, and the nobles seem to like him. Again, the Emperor asks Turan to join the Parliament as a full member, which would guarantee the support of the french states in any war (if the Parliament aprooves it) and would represent a huge economical and diplomatical adventage. France sends some supplies to support Persia. The Parliament votes for no intervene in the Second Russo-polish War.
 * Turan cannot join due to the popular disaproval, and its current situation. But it can for a loose confederacy that would consist of Turan, Franco-Sweden, and Russia-Finland. The structure would be:
 * French get 2 seats
 * Swedes get 2 seats
 * Turks get 2 seats
 * Russians get 2 seats
 * Finns get 2 seats
 * An additional seat would rotate between
 * Arabs
 * Alternating (gets a seat every 14 years) Africans & Bulgarians
 * Greenlandish Turks
 * Estonians
 * English
 * Alternating Kazakhs & Indians
 * Lithuanian
 * Sweden's Saami noble refuses to send support to Poland and dismisses them as a lost cause The Polish ambassador insults the Swedish people and Sweden declares support for Russia. Volunteer troops from Sweden take a small section of the front and drive into Poland. Sweden upgrades its military and sends volunteer units to France with Swedish officers allowing them to gain experience. Sweden upgrades all of England, Flanders and Denmark's main port facilities to encourage foreign trade also halving the tax on goods. The gamble pays off boosting the Swedish economy. Meanwhile Carl Michael Bellman writes and composes a new Swedish anthem using his poetic and musical skills. The Saami lord adopts it and it grows extremly popular. Wonderlaand expands across OTL French polynesia to encompass all the islands. The remaining expansion quota is used on Souther Asgard.
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 250km inward and expands Kōshi by 250km. Finland draws up final plans for a war with a nation that's on the Maluku Islands, though they do not do anything yet, and probably won't fight it until around 1790s. A few more Shinto shrines are built in the colonies. Also thanks to the Karelians (from the Karelia province in Finland) help, most Finns get the industrialisation process after years of teaching and helping; industrialisation continues.
 * The crops start to have success again.Meanwhile, Herczog's model of steam engine start to replace the older engines in a faster pace than before.The independentist movements on Kalikut intensify, and spread to the neighboring cities.Meanwhile, the plannings for the founding o a new colony start, although the place for the settlement still is undefined.Neos Preveza expands 1500 sq km and Eszák-Afrika expands 1250 sq km.
 * The Chancellor Johann Karl gave the order not to intervene in northern Italy, so Burgundian soldiers are at the Burgundy borders. The Chancellor published a book entitled "First of all the nation," in which he defends the idea of ​​nation-state is more notary by the language and culture. This idea that your book is over borders (such as profit and the opposite) and begins to persuade the Chancellor to direct their gaze to the French-speaking area of Switzerland. Burgundy will not support the Polish-Russian War, as the Chancellor is not concerned. Johann Karl has publicly against the idea of Turan to confederate the "Motherland" to other countries. Burgundy Parliament more widely popular support are great against this idea (promoted by nationalism). Burgundy's economy continues to stagnate. One reason that the economy begins to stagnate is the development and purchase of weapons, which is to formalize the army consists of the low economy.
 * The French speaking area of Switzerland is already part of Burgundy
 * Madoc's army sets sail in February and arrives in August. Madoc has managed to survive most of his assassination attempts, which merely make him more of a living legend in the eyes of the Classists (18th century Cherokee Castro anyone?). However, the Vietnamese aid and troops have made the fight against the Itsaygahan government even harder. But the war is now on two fronts, one in the west around the Mixxixxippi River and the Gulf Coast, and one in the west around the Carolinian swamps and bayous. The Union Body is forced to split its forces. The Cymbrian Leveller Lords construct roads across the nation, and rebuild most of the building lost in the war. Noovelongahi's expansion ceases.
 * The Vietnamese and Taiwanese continue to expand their miliary for the upcoming war in Morrocco.
 * The UAA illegalizes slavery, causing a huge revolt to start in Soudan. The State of Soudan revolts and attemps to secede. UAA troops move in, but fighting there gets very rough.

The Senate tells Yemen that if they join in the war, the UAA will add Puntland to the Joint UAA-Yemani colony of Somalia.
 * The construction of the Trans-Coastal Railroad continues, connecting more cities with each other. In America, the Baja colony is expanded another 3800 sq km north.

1788

 * The Vietnamese and Taiwanese continue to expand their military for the upcoming war, but it is now it is in doubt whether the Vietnamese will attack Morrocco or the Classist Cymbrian rebels. The Vietnamese re-establish the semi-legendary Sathu order, and form the first sathu cells created since the order was willingly destroyed centuries ago. These first few cells are dedicated to the destruction of the Classist regime in general, and the assaination of the reviled Madoc the Indian in particular. The newly-reborn order succeeds in several major acts of sabotage against the Classist regime, and assassinates quite a few low-ranking Cymbrian government officials. This succeeds in giving the Itsagahi government more time to defeat the disgusting Cymbrian traitors.
 * I Liberatori in Ricasolia, led by Tranio Oyolia, have gained many victories against the Neapolitans. Fearing that a defeat would make Naples look bad in the international community's eyes, Benvolio III announces that Ricasolia is not worth reconquering and that he will focus on more important colonies, such as Tamilia, and on the potential gaining of territoris. I Liberatori takes control of the newly founded Republic of Ricasolia, with Tranio Oyolia as the new president, and abolishes slavery in the new nation founded by ex-slaves. Many Neapolitans on the island are killed, with the survivors fleeing back to Naples. Naples regroups the military forces from the island and rebuilds that sector of the military.
 * The construction of the Trans-Continental Railroad continues in China. Due to an accident, the railroad is not expected to be completed until 1790. In America, the San Francisco colony is expanded 3800 sq km south.
 * Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 250km inward and expands Kōshi by 250km. Some other few Finns convert to Finnish paganism. Soon the Finnish government promotes Finnish paganism and Finnish mythology along with Nipponese culture/language and Shinto. A few Finn musicians compose some music that mixes Finn and Nipponese, and it is enjoyed by many Finns.
 * Nippon expands Kamochatoka by 1550 sq km as more exile villages are set up, and logging intensifies. Shogun Tokugawa Ieharu dies as well, and Tokugawa Ienari becomes the new shogun. There are also riots in rice shops in Edo and Osaka because the price of rice hasn't returned to pre-famine levels; the riots are dealt with by the Shinsengumi but the Shogun forces the rice shops to lower prices some more, so prices are just above pre-famine prices. This pleases the rioters and the matter is resolved.
 * To protect the Classist regime in Cymbria, the nation is divided into Generalities, each governed locally to prevent damage in one area effecting the rest. And each generality is to be governed by a council who convene in secret. In Itsaygahi, Madoc's forces promise liberation to the slaves of Itsaygahi in return for their support and promising land in Noovelongahi for all who choose to go. The beginnings of a slave revolt similar to that in Ricasolia begin to emerge, much to slaveowners horror, forcing this minority into the Unionite (reactionary) camp. Madoc himself is under heavy personal guard to try and avoid assassination.
 * Don't worry. I've replaced the Classists with the Russians as the target of Vietnamese ire.
 * Industrialization continues. Meanwhile, the use of Herczog's engine continues to popularize, as it does not speand so much fuel as the formerly-used engine.Magyar Dél-Amerikabán expands 2750 sq km.Meanwhile, debate to where the new colony should be still goes on.Expeditions to map both places are launched.
 * Turan expands its colony in Greenland by another 800km2.
 * From 1784 to 1788 have completed the 4-year mandate of Chancellor, which was presented to Parliament of Burgundy... again. Johann Karl is still the conservative and nationalist thick as Chancellor of Burgundy. Johann Karl's victory is due to industrial upgrading, the army improved and revolutionary nationalist ideal that allowed the peaceful annexation of Marseille and the French speaking part of Switzerland. But his political career was marred by the economy, which still falls. The news in Burgundy on the annexation of the French speaking part of Switzerland seems to have brought riots and vandalism by Switzerland, which the Chancellor has taken to launch an ultimatum to the Swiss government and then declare war. The Burgundy Army begins to lead his troops into the whole of Switzerland, trying to prove and improve the Burgundian arms industry and thus reactivate the economy. Meanwhile, some foreign French-speaking border areas begin to be full of nationalist propaganda. Build up its military.
 * The French speaking part of the Helvetic Confederation was already part of Burgundy.
 * The UAA makes a deal with Soudan. Soudan will become independent but, it cannot trade with any nation other than the UAA, and it must support the UAA in all wars. Soudan is lowered to the status of vassal state. All the slave traders move to Soudan (where slavery remains legal). This forces the government to look for new ways to produce goods. They import few dozen steam engines from Hungary and begin testing them.
 * The Saami Lord of Sweden feels the time is right. He orders a full Swedish invasion of the Kola Peninsula and Livonia. The surprize attack cataches the Russian navy off guard with ten suicide submarines sinking over half the Russian Baltic Fleet with their separate attacks on Riga and St Petersburg.

 * There was no official deal, and there will be no roleback. And you better watch your tone, or else I will tear Russia apart by moderator revolts as punishment for your unreasonable behavior
 * I'm not the person that stabs somebody in the back after they just had a royal wedding with your sovreign's own daughter. and I did mention many times that the only reason i did not have siberia alrady, is that every time I tried...Insta-Nearly-Killed-By-Sweeden and everybody like why u expand in asia, we no like that . So then, duting the 1750 war agianst Poland, People started coplaining again that I wasnt expanding in siberia, so I told everyone that stop complaining where I expand becaue my point was just proven now. Whenever siberia was being settled, Everyone just took advantage of my -10 for expanding and said hey, l'ets hyperexpand in a territory with 10 times my population! 
 * That's it. Your temper tantrum has made me decide to join the war on Sweden's side.
 * I didn't know about the royal marry. You just gave me a casus belli. I'll accelerate the successsion process. I'm sorry but I go to war or probably Sweden tries to become independent again.

 * Naples divides its military forces into three sections. One defends Neapolitan territories from Russian attacks, the other attempts to blockade Russian territories to prevent them from sending aid to the mother nation, and the other aids the Swedish forces up north. Naples sends many gifts to the Vietnamese for their help in the war. Benvolio III asks his brother in law Janos to at least remain neutral in the war, if they don't wish to aid Naples. He reminds Janos that the Neapolitan parliament is worried about allowing half-Hungarian Sándor (or, as he is called in Italian, Alessandro) to be the heir to the throne of Naples, but he is sure he can convince them to accept the prince as the heir to the Neapolitan throne... Meanwhile, the Pope declares Russia excommunicate for the act of bombing Jerusalem, and excommunicates any Catholic who would aid Russia.
 * Russia isn't catholic, there orthodox, and don't care what the pope says. and we bombed Stockholm and just fired canons on Jerusalem and "coastal cities" like Nice, Marseilles, etc...

 * Ricasolia is too poor to help either side in the war, and President Oyolia doesn't see any purpose to do so. He asks Itsaygahi for an alliance.
 * France is still fighting Russia there up north. Joachim Murat re-offers the Finns to change their side. In the French Parliament the Finns would be represented in a super-national democracy, not vassalaized by a empire.

The king Peter start to march to Warsaw, where he plans to take the throne for his overlord. Djem marchs in Siberia with his legions. He joins his brother the young sultan of Algeria Mehmet, the Caliph in Mecca, to ask their relative Muhammad II, sultan of Egypt, to, at least, remain neutral, if not join the war against Russia.

The Emperor asks, in name of the Church, in name of the democracy, of the conctitutional monarchies of the world, and his own name, the help of the UAA against Russia.

 * Did you realize that russia decided to remove their claims to The kurils and sahalin, and you just stab me in the back? even after we signed aln alliance and russia wanted to promote finnish independance.
 * Finland was siding with France against Russia, so Finland must of seen Russia as a threat to Finnish independence so we sided with our good friends Finland. As for our 1780 agreement, I am still complying with it: Russian citizens are free to come and settle in Sakhalin and the Kuril islands and I didn't attack Russia from Karafuto or the Chishima islands (Sakhalin & Kuril islands), I simply bombarded Vladivostok and my closet naval base to Vladivostok where the attack came from would be from Honshu island. You never asked for an alliance, just not to attack you from Sakhalin or the Kurils and to let Russians settle in Nipponese territory. Perhaps if you had paid attention to the game and accepted my 1775 offer, we wouldn't be having this conversation as I would of happily stayed neutral but I have still obeyed the terms of the 1780 deal.

Madoc is made Supreme General, and prepares his offensive, due for next year. In the north, the Unionites hurriedly prepare an army of European mountain-men, the remnants of the Marcher Lord armies and a reserve of poorly armed militias. In Cymbria, things are pootling along nicely. However, a certain measure of corruption of the system is emerging as the administrators and their subordinates tend to have much more pleasant lifestyles than their subjects.

John besieges Warsaw and sends his troops to look for polish nobles to join the french cause. Meanwhile Djem has left his troops at command of the nipponeses generals while he goes to Haiti to work in the local militias (France builds up its military). In Haiti a new party has appeared.

 * "Rule 1, on page 1 of the book of war, is: "Do not march on Moscow". Various people have tried it, Napoleon and Hitler, and it is no good. That is the first rule.

It is a vast country, with no clearly defined objectives." - Field Marshal Bernard Law Montgomeryor this version: "The US has broken the second rule of war. That is, don't go fighting with your land army on the mainland of Asia. Rule One is don't march on Moscow. I developed these two rules myself." It is good to notice that rusia also has china on their side. once again, i'm just stating this as well, um, not trying to insult anyone...but there are coincidences. -Lx
