States of America: Northern Defeat (Map Game)

Hello, and welcome to States of America: Northern Defeat!

POD
In this Map Game, the USA made more early gains in Canada, worrying the UK, as they wanted to keep some of their North American colonies, so they committed a larger force, utterly crushing the USA at several battles, the most notable being the Battle of Niagara. After the USA was driven from Canada, vengeful British Commanders continued down through the USA, burning many cities to the ground. When Washington was burnt down, the USA was destroyed. The Northern States, frustrated with the failure of the US government to defend them, declared independence, and the Southern States declared independence to give them the power to control their own laws. As casualties mounted, the British halted their expansion and withdrew from all but the Ohio Country and parts of Maine, which were annexed.

However, your probably wondering how this all happened with the British having the available forces, At the Battle of Leipzig in Saxony (16–19 October 1813), also called the "Battle of the Nations", 191,000 French fought more than 300,000 Coalition forces, and in OTL the French won, but in this TL the French were routed after Napoleon was killed by enemy soldiers, allowing the British to end the Napoleonic Wars by the end of 1813 and send a large amount of troops to fight the Americans, allowing the this TL's ending to the War of 1812.

Rules
The Game starts in 1816.

Turns are in years.

Game will start with just the former American states.

After three turns, the game will expand to include all of North America.

Every day at 5 PM Eastern Standard Time a new turn will start, and anyone may post the new turn.

Portugal: We attempt to expand our African colonial borders to inside Africa. Also, we enforce colonial conscription, two years service, to fight natives if things get rough.

Overall presidency changes every four years depending on election results. i e, President from Georgia, you control Federal Government.)

Persia: SECRET: We send many groups of soldiers to Spain to pillage their villages for supplies and to weaken their economy. Many of the Spanish peasants are detained and enslaved by the Persian army.

Portugal: The news quickly spreads to Spain's most bitter rival, Portugal, and we take the opportunity to invade Galicia and the northern coast (Greater Basque) to gain a border with France. Southern Spain resists, however...

Persia: Orders Portugal to send troops to Southern Spain to detain the derelicts, while Persian soldiers bomb Madrid.

'''All right guys, attacking Spain is implausible and everything you're doing has to be under one thing. So everything you do to Portugal must be under one sign bolded "Portugal." Same goes for Persia, also as for implausibility. The Pope decreed the separation of the two countries and they won't officially go to war with each other.. wouldn't happen. Also, as powerful as Persia is.. it has no way of getting its troops to Europe'''.

Hannover and Munich, however, remain provincial capitals - Hannover and Bavaria respectively as does Konigsberg for Prussia. However, Brandenburg/Berlin is named the capital of the Empire. With Colonial expansion in West Africa thanks to Hannover quite the surprise many people from Prussia proper are sent with Bavarians as well to the North West African Colony as well as the Indonesian Colony. The West African colony is named Arguin, while the Northwestern colony is named Groß Friedrichsburg. The colony in Indonesia is simply named Guinea. A small group of colonists - mostly people recruited as failed farmers or miners - are sent to the Northwestern Coast of Africa establishing a small colonial outpost in OTL Mauritania. The population reaches 200 civilian colonists as well as about 300 soldiers to defend them from natives with a constructed wall with some cannon emplacements. Taking a hint from the British Empires' previous rebellion in their thirteen colonies, a colonial council is created to hear the voice of the colonies of the German empire and to prevent the total exploitation of the colonies by an incompetent ruler in the future.

Uses the new-found money to bolster industry and science. From the Russian Academy of Sciences, aluminum and its uses are discovered, and soon, the bauxite deposits in the Urals are being mined, and the aluminum is being turned into useful things, and the secrets shared with Japan, Spain and Naples, but jealously guarded from others. Work on the Algorithm Machine continues and is modified, to utilize this new material. Tsar forces nobles to ration food to citizens in their demesne, sending out men to go from demesne to demesne, making sure food is distributed. Continues influencing Sweden-Norway with trade and diplomacy, planning to build educational buildings near the borders.

 Seeing that ' ' the   CRA is actually not in their best interests, and that they can now connect to the free nation  '' of the American Union, the northern half of the Louisiana Territory secedes from the CRA and joins the American Union. ''

' The Kingdom of Hawaii is established, and begins trading with the Japanese and Chinese, asking for alliances. '

' Seeking new lands, thousands of immigrants from Europe begin to move to the Ottoman Empire, raising the level of Christians in the population to roughly 23%. '

' The nations of South East Asia unite to form the United Kingdom of Siam to counter foreign influence. Although most were already Siamese puppets so this is really just a de facto change. '

' The CRA sells an abundance of cotton surplus, hurting prices but still selling more than usual. '

AU: We welcome North Louisiana and Florida with open arms. We allow them both to keep their culture so long as they stayed under our rule. This is to prevent rebellion. Florida is given semi-autonomy. Military continues to enlarge, and the AU becomes more economically involved in Europe. War is declared on the CRA

German D:We offer an Alliance and Trade Agreement to the AU.

AU D: Accepts.

Ottoman Empire: We expand into Africa and we expand Omani Africa and Madagascar. The Omani Africa connects with the main part of Ottoman Africa, and construction of a road begins. We are also influenced by the Ethiopians and may people in our African lands convert to Christianity, making the Sultan agree to grant the Advisory Council actual legislative powers. We industrialize and modernize, and we begin raising camels and exotic animals for sale, helping diversify the economy. Farming along the River Nile begins as well as by other rivers, which helps produce grain and other food. We send some troops and a naval squadron to aid the American Union. To compensate for our massive flush of colonists into Africa, the nations of Serbia, Bosnia, Albania, Bulgaria, Montenegro, and Rumania are formed as free nations, and the rest of the world is told to leave them alone. The six nations agree to sign a defensive alliance, but are not obliged to fight in any offensive wars.

Germany: Even though Prussia has successfully united into the German Empire, The combined Imperial Court agrees that More integration of the provinces are needed, a large scale conference is set up to further unite the Germanies into a single identity and culture more so than they already are. The Colonies in Northwestern and Western Africa are both expanded as the Larger colony boasts a population of almost 9000, while the smaller has a population of 3000. To further integrate Algeria into the German Economy we begin large scale trade from Algiers into all the Mediterranean nations and the Saharan trade route. '''The Colony in New Guinea is expanded as the population reaches 1200 with a military force of 3000 naval/army forces in the area. '''The population of Germany reaches 25 million. The population of the colonies reaches 13,200. Making good on our alliance with the AU we send 15,000 troops to Florida to help the AU. A fleet consisting of two new First Rates, three Second rates, seven Fifth Rate Frigates and three rocket artillery ships (they were unguided and they existed) is sent to North America off the coast of the CRA. The Emperor seeing the usage of factories in other nations like the British empire adopts their usage and has several primitive steam powered facilities are brought forward and built and allow for the manufacture of certain goods much faster. The Industrialization undertaken by other European powers has officially come to Germany and Germany uses the opportunity to begin building Railways across its country importing some of the technology to do this from Britain. A Gunsmith begins research into a new type of gun. France: Begins late colonization of West Africa. Sends some support to those against the AU. Development continues.
 * Algeria: The Algerians continue expansion south into the Desert solidifying the hold on their portion of the Saharan trade route. This allows for massive profits as Weapons and European made materials are a rarity in Africa.

Russian Empire: Sends colonists into the unclaimed parts of Siberia to establish settlements that might later become ports. Begins tapping into the abundant natural resources of Russia, finding huge quantities of metals such as iron, tin, copper, and nickel, and non-metallic ores such as salt, amber, precious stones, and even diamonds. The biggest resource beginning to be tapped is oil, and as such, Russia thanks Persia for the Oil Trade Agreement, but decides to cancel it, as it is no longer needed. With the new industrialism, the people are beginning to feel annoyance at the, they feel, unneeded noblemen, wanting a shift in power to the worker. The Tsar, seeing this, makes sure to show himself as a man of the people, and begins to gradually and discretely meet their demands in further lessening the importance of the nobles. The Algorithm machine is complete, making complex calculations easier and more efficient. Aluminum is used to improve the military, and laws are made requiring every able-bodied man above 18 years of age to serve in the military for two years. Scientific research is focused on aluminum, looking for more ways it can improve the military, industry and transportation, exploiting its lightness and relative abundance. One way already being implemented is in packaging. Work begins on a railway crossing from the points China and Japan send trade goods to all the way to Moscow and Saint Petersburg. Begins to look at schematics of the steam-powered locomotives of Richard Trevithick, modifying for Aluminum and more modern technology. Continues to influence Sweden-Norway.
 * China Diplomacy: If Russian scientists help Chinese scientists, the Emperor will gladly build railway lines all over the empire, so Russia can trade resources from all over the empire easier.
 * Russian D: Russia gladly sends scientists to aid their Chinese neighbors.
 * China D: The Emperor thanks you. Research begins immediately.

Portugal:  We cancel the invasion of Oman. However, we set up a colony in what is now Gabon.

 * Bulgaria D: What are the major alliances in my area?

China: China keeps on modernizing the country. Scientists at the Imperial Science Institute develop their own version of a rifle and pistol. After a demonstration of these, the Emperor is greatly impressed and orders the production of these guns. To fit this production, several factories of European design are built. With European designs, a sample artillery piece and a more Chinese traditional rocket launcher (these are unguided and are on cannon carriage)  are tested. They also impress the Emperor and are produced in the factories alongside the rifles and pistols. Naples:  Our economy continues to improve because of the EWFTO. We recruit units in the colonial militia in San Geranno, and send more colonists to expand it. We begin to build cannons in factories. We also start researching the idea of a railway to improve trade and commerce, and ask our  friend and ally, Russia, to share their ideas with us.

We recruit colonial units in Colombia(not the nation, but the territory), and Argentina/Peru, etc. Diplomacy: We ask for a trade agreement with New Spain, in order to improve relations. We ask Russia to send their friend scientists for research into railways.
 * Russian D: Sends scientists to aid research.

'''New Spain owns the Philippines - not Spain.. Hence why new Spain was selling them. Feudalplague (talk) 04:45, July 27, 2013 (UTC)'''

On the updated map Spain still owns them. Guess it was never changed that will be fixed tomorrow.

Oh ok.

Japan:  Economic boost because of EWFTO. Begins recruiting European style line infantry units, and train men to use muskets and rifles, though being a Samurai is still more popular due to the conservative shogunate. Diplomacy: We do accept Hawaii's request for a trade agreement, but we will consider the alliance offer some more

Sweden-Norway: We ask Denmark for a dynastic union and we wish to join the EWFTO. Our nation begins sending scientists and merchants to the industrialised nations of France, Prussia, Britain and USA. Industrialisation begins swiftly and the process of turning Sweden and Norway from an agrarian society to a industrialised one begins. Textile factories are built in Sweden, as well as major fisheries built in Norway. Asks China for an alliance and trade agreement, as well as one with Prussia.

 * China D: China agrees to trade with your nation, an alliance will, too.
 * American Union D: We accept, but ask for help in the war against the CRA.

'''CRA is being invaded! President, and acting General Andrew Jackson asks all freedom loving nations, step in on behalf of the CRA. Our peaceful states only want to exist in a confederacy, but the American Union wants to force a union upon them! Please, your help is needed immensely. (We ask Gran Colombia, Spain, Naples, Portugal, and Russia to intercede on our behalf)'''

 Naples D: We request that you make your case to the EWFTO to consider it, as you have asked several of us to aid you.

German D: As Germany is part of the EWFTO as of now until hostilities halt the EWFTO can not be involved as it would be in direct contradiction of the rules of not declaring war (including proxy war) on a member nation, as for the CRA their claims to AU territory must cease and they must not declare any open hostilities against the AU. Then will the EWFTO allow you and the AU to join

'''AU D: The AU states that they will halt the invasion if you stop claiming northern Louisiana and keep threatening us. we also ask for help in the war from nations in case they don't stop. We also ask Spain, Naples, Portugal, and Russia.'''

UKOS: We have banned together in order to resist European imperialism. As such, we follow the footsteps of China and begin modernizing. Agricultural technology is improved and there is a food boom. Plans of further modernization is discussed with the King and his council.

Nueva Spain: Continues to build up defenses. Residents in Florida begin to rise up against non-Nueva Spain people and cultures, claiming neither Britain, AU or CRA have any right to the land and they are part of Nueva Spain completely. Nueva Spain '''Sells the Philippines to Germany for their gold and accepts Spain's trade agreements. '''Nueva Spain continues to upgrade transportation.

'''We (AU) gave them semi-autonomy and allowed them to keep their Spanish culture. What else can they ask for?'''

'''To be part of the nation that they feel they belong to. Because also, Britain never had control of them in the first place, so they can't sell them, as I stated much earlier. So your autonomy means nothing to them, as it's similar to OTL colonies that got bought and traded and sold again over and over where they are culturally part of a greater nation and have no wishes to be overseen by someone who clearly doesn't share that culture whatsoever. All of Florida (1819 borders and all) will continue to revolt. You as the AU, and previous status as a British Colony should understand that more than ever. OOC: It was ASB Britain got it in the first place..only have 3% of it on the algo, I protested this as soon I returned. Nevertheless, parts of it were eaten up. If this is not reverted it will work itself out in the gameplay. '''

Bosnia: Bosnia's new president, Marko Joksimovic, starts his five-year plan beginning with the improvement of the military. He also is combatting the economic woes by improving the nation's roads and he is trying to get a railroad from Sarajevo to Tuzla. Bosnia asks other nations for assistance in this project.

1826
''' North America: The AU and CRA are engaged in open conflict with the AU openly proclaiming unification while the CRA's government secretly wishes for this. However, so far, the AU has secured a major ally in Germany preventing the assistance of many possible nations '''

 South America: Brazil officially declares independence and proclaims an Emperor under Dom Pedro who openly defies Portugal in a show of force with a conflict all over the former colony 

''' Europe:  The British are officially the world's up-and-coming industrial nation outshining any other nation with the possibility. People leave in droves for colonization to escape persecution and economic or personal issues. Russia's famine continues. However, it is alleviated by cheap food brought in from neighboring nations. However, it does take a while for the food to arrive from these areas. The Tsar sees no issue with his nobles and lords and refuses to hear as such leaving many peasants in the same bad situation as before. '''

''' Africa: Africa continues to be colonized by European powers and the Ottomans have expanded into the area as well. However, the Ottoman empire suffers a funding shortage from the modernization attempts of its military and its funding of expansion. Many in the Sultan's court believe a much smaller front, just bordering the coast instead of wide swaths of land in Africa, would benefit a financially troubled empire. '''

''' Asia: German and British colonies continuously expand in the area in Australia and New Guinea as well. The combination of powers in the area all decently powerful and with more modern technology keep any would-be Asian powers out of the area. The Chinese and Japanese attempts at industrialization do not catch on as much of the technology used to do this is barely understood and extremely complicated limiting the amount of factories that can be built by these powers. Also, isolationists in Japan show open distaste for the Western culture attempting to permeate their society resulting in many Samurai daimyos in Japan starting to pull their support for the Emperor alongside the Shogunate. '''

Why is Bulgaria not on the map?

Portugal: We send our army to attack Brazil's shores and seize major cities, and supply the AU with money and supplies. We also set up a colony in Tiera del Fuego (not part of Brazil).

'''German Empire: The colonies in Northwestern and Western Africa are expanded as the Emperor sets up large scale programs to give land to new settlers. A second colony is established on the other end of New Guinea.''' The German Elite 10th Division is deployed alongside the 13 Regulars in the AU to provide support to the AU. The Germans begin high training of the Algerians into a modern force providing weapons and modern training. Germany uses the already set up infrastructure of the Philippines as well as the large whole the Exchange has created in housing development to settle near 4000 people on the islands many - making the jump from New Guinea. The Philippinos are unsure of the new settlers but the lack of hostility and light military presence seems to prove that the new rulers are not there to be oppressive. The resources of the Phillipines are readily exploited under a work program which actually end up paying all who work it a livable wage. This is set up under a new mining business which promises to provide new opportunity and wealth for the people it employs as well as the empire. The less fortunate and failed people are encouraged to leave to start a new life in the colonies with major benefits such as rights to land among a few other things. Two wealthy nobles take it upon the Emperor's request to go to Arguin and Greater Frederickburg to help expand the colony and promote a sense of worth. With each lord go thousands of his followers and persons paid for by the lords themselves. This adds even more people leaving Germany for the colonies with over 30,000 deciding to leave this year alone moving along with the chartered companies or government sponsored colonies. This is due in part to the huge civil disturbance in the Americas preventing many would be new life seekers to attempt to do it elsewhere by making their lives up in another place most notably the German colonies. The German colonies population soars to 30,000 with the remaining 15,000 colonists supposed to arrive the next year.

Quebec: The cape colony expands to 3000 people. We ask to have a trade deal with an American successor state. We will help the American state that responds first. We ask to ally with Germany.

The AU accepts your offer of help.

China: China contiues modernization. Many of the new guns and artillery are in production, small parts of the army are being equipped with the new weapons and are being trained by foreign advisors on modern styles of fighting, while others yet to be equipped are practicing on dummy versions of the weapons and will be fully trained once the proper amount have been produced.

'''Please read the mod events. China is having trouble modernizing because a lot of the things are complicated and you have no real way to figure some of these things out. So pretty much, most of your people are peasants that don't know how it all works'''

Better?

'''Yes, perfect. Just know that in OTL with most Asian countries their population resisted foreign influence to the highest degree. That doesn't just go away.'''

Got it, it's just challenging to do this.

Republic of Bulgaria: The government is officially set up, with a bicameral Republican legislature. President Anastas meets with with Bosnian diplomats in an effort to establish trade agreements, and perhaps a mutual technology pact. Bulgaria begins to try to influence the government of Rumania (I am allowed to vassalize like PM II, or do I just invade?) The miltary expands greatly. The President appoints Georg Runmas as Head of Industry. Runmas orders more factories to be constructed. Alliance requests are sent to Germany.

Bosnia Diplomacy: Bosnia welcomes the Bulgarian diplomats in Sarajevo.

German D: We accept the alliance.

'''Yes. We can vassalize it. It will just take a while for your influence to take control considering the Balkans are ridiculously ethnically diverse. I will also add all the Balkan nations to the map I keep forgetting. Feudalplague (talk) 01:17, July 28, 2013 (UTC)'''

Colombia: as a last resource, Spain is asked for Colombia's independence and the new nation would swear allegiance and solidarity to Spain as its mother nation. While this, Cartagena and the Caribbean continental territories including Panama are asked if the Federation is recognized as independent, to join back the federation as member nations due to the cultural ties that Panama, and Cartagena held with the rest of Colombia. Military and navy are built up

*Spanish D: Spain hereby recognizes the independence of Gran Columbia, and accepts their allegiance. We wish to end all hostilities and ask for a trade agreement.

Colombia D: Joyous at the event, accepts the agreement and offers the King of Spain to take the title of Don Protector de la Gran Colombia = Lord protector of the Great Columbia. It now asks Cartagena, the Atlantic Coast and Panama to rejoin now with full freedom due to their cultural ties.

Brazil: begins a naval clash in the South Atlantic which we win and with 10,000 men we take the colony of Tiera del Fuego.

Bosnia: Bosnia begins their project to get the railroad from Sarajevo to Tuzla. Bosnia also improves their military solely for defense. They also begin using Ottoman weaponry left from the occupation. Bosnia declares themselves neutral in all world affairs. Many Bosnians are being employed in the railroad project. Also, small protests are occurring in Zenica due to a labor dispute. Bosnia wants to extend trading and diplomatic relations with their neighbors.

German Dip: We offer trade and an alliance with Bosnia.

Naples and Sicily: Economy continues to flourish. We begin to work on a railroad. Several bomb ketches are manufactured for the navy. Military drills are held in Malta, led by the Knights of St. John. Supplies are sent to San Gerrano, as well as more colonists, and some native African units are recruited in the army there. We begin to influence North Italy. Diplomacy: We see that both American nations have asked for our assistance in their conflict, and we are obligated to remain neutral unitl the EWFTO makes a decision. We request that both nations make a case to the EWFTO so that we may decide. Also, tells Japan that if there is a civil war the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies will fully support the Emperor.

Mod Here, where is your colony again?Feudalplague (talk) 03:40, July 28, 2013 (UTC)

'''It's on the map. It's the red place above Portuguese Angola in Africa.Likenhaufen (talk) 03:47, July 28, 2013 (UTC)'''

Spain:  Economy continues to improve. More men are recruited in South America. We expand the navy. We build cannons to fortify the forts bordering Portugal. We will support the Emperor in Japan if civil war breaks out.

AU: Seems to have an upper hand of the war. the Military is still increased, and Europenization continues.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Ottoman Empire: We replace religious law with secular law, homosexuality is no longer punishable by death,  We cotninue to modernize and industrialize and we continue trading with the Balkan nations we recently gave independance. We build roads across the country and weapon factories while the economy continues to diversify. We continue to slowly Christianize.

1827
North America: Conflict between the two north American powers continues with the AU decisively achieving an advantage

South America: Brazils independance is met with jubilation from the nations indigenous and the Emperor leads a series of sucessful raids and small battles gaining the confidence of the people that their attempt will be successful.

'''Africa: Colonial expansion continues, however Tribal Raiders in Africa begin to harrass the Germans, Neopolitans, and the Ottomans due to their recent expansion encroaching on their territories. The Ottomans suffer as they maintain a wide front in Eastern Africa opening them up to Trade Caravans. The German Colonies also suffer to some degree as a few hundred people have been killed in Greater Fredericksburg prompting the colonial administration to request help from the Fatherland.'''

'''Asia: Modernization continues slowly as the complexity of the European technology still baffles many chinese. However notable progress is made in small scale of Chinese Military units as they are able to use German and British imported rifles, however the Demands of the European powers militaries continually drains the possibility of getting reliable shipments.'''
