Look Out, Sir! Revised (Map Game)



General
The year is 1912, before World War I. Can you change world history forever? You can certainly try.

The Old Game
The original Look Out, Sir! was based in an alternative World War 2, in which Italy had took the Balkans, and North Africa by themselves. This lead to Germany's men being stockpiled for Operation: Barbarossa, and quickly defeating the Soviets. The Japanese also won Midway, keeping their fleet intact.

The game began fine, but a war in South America resulted in multiple countries from around the world fighting for Brazil. The USA (somehow) kept losing all battles in the Pacific, and had rebellions popping up everywhere. The inactiveness of some players and implausibility of others made the game unplayable, and died about a week in.

Rules
1. No implausibility. Ask mods what is plausible and what is not.

2. Each turn is a half year.

3. Turns begin at UTC 00:00

4. Don't edit past posts without permission from a moderator.

5.''' Resistance in countries will be determined with Random.org. A person must roll between 1-10. A 5 or below results in revolts, and a 10 or above results in no revolts. '''I want to stress this rule as it was completely ignored last game.

6. You may only control one nation, but may release nations as puppet states.

7. Puppets act as allies, and must help the nation they are a puppet of at all times.

8. Moderators have to ability to do plausible, and fair events for any and every country.

9. Moderators decide what technology countries can research. This depends on the country's current economical state in game, and technological state in game and in our timeline.

10. You can not switch countries unless yours has been annexed.

11. The game ends in the current year.

12. New players can start the year they joined.

13. A page for your nation is strongly recommended. Be sure to include military strength and population count.

14. Moderators determine what is plausible and what is not.

15. Moderators designated as mapmakers are the only ones allowed to edit the map.

16. A map will be made every year. Maps will be made when requested.

17. A nation historically with one side will stay with that side until they choose to leave by the minimum year of 1943. Leaders cannot leave. Example: Italy can leave the Axis beginning in 1943, but Germany may not. If one side is defeated, the winning side will determine the outcome of the defeated side.

18. Nations designated as 'Empires' control only their mainland, so Britain controls only Britain, but they're colonies world wide are classified as puppet states for them. Does not apply any more.

19. Colonial empires of nations conquered will become apart of the country who conquered the home country. Example: France conquers Netherlands, Dutch colonies become apart of France.

20. Nations classified as 'major power's' cannot be taken without a vote from the moderator staff whether or not a player can take it. Moderators are an exception to this rule.

21. You can only build up two of these things at a time: infrastructure, military, economy.

1914
Charles Lindbergh fly's the first airplane flight across the Atlantic, as nations are finding interest in planes for warfare

'''With racism rising in the southern parts of the USA, smaller groups of civil rights groups appear in the northern areas, disgusted by the intolerance towards the African-American ethnic group. Although numerous, they do not achieve much. '''

More Mod Events...


 * Argentina We improve northern and central infrastructure slightly. We hold a urban literacy campaign. In 1914, Argentina's economy was based on agricultural exports, mainly of grain and beef. Sheep and cattle are adored as a commodity and we expand ranches. Grain is also expanded slightly. We say we don't want to get involved in any non-Latin American wars and go neutral about the European rivalry.


 * Brazil: We ask the Ottomans for a alliance since they have most of the world's oil. We also ask Italy for an alliance since they control most of the trade in the Med sea. Lastly we ask Rusiia for an alliance. Our nation increases out military and navy. Also we upgrade our ports. Timber and Agriculture are our top industries. The boarder control increases it's troops on our southern boarder, just incase something happens. We look up to the three nations above us, we want their land.


 * Ottoman Empire Dip: We decline the alliance with Brazil because an alliance with Russia will deeply oppose the Ottoman views.
 * Ottoman Empire: We decide that we should drill for oil in the coast of the Arabian Sea. The Sultan announces that if we would like to extend our sphere of influence to Northern Africa, we will have to get them to oppose their current occupiers. The Sultan also says that any rebellions on the Arabian Peninsula are unacceptable, and will be punished. We offer a defence pact to the German Empire, as we both have similar interests in economic and diplomatic views.
 * German Dip: We accept the defence pact.
 * Brazilian Dip: I was looking for a trade alliance.
 * OE Dip We agree
 * United States of America: We begin building ships fro the navy, but the army is not improved much, but new rifles are issued. We declare neutrality in any overseas crisis, and begin building housing for many people in the nation. Jim crow laws continue in the South, and many southern whites feel that blacks are inferior to whites. In the North, however, there is much sympathy for the blacks. Charles Lindburgh is praised as a hero by the US citizens, and debate begins over which new state should be made: Alaska or Puerto Rico. People begin moving east into California and other areas.
 * Venezuela:  The white/pardos social divide is still in place, and little effort is made to improve the poverty and illiteracy of the nation. General and President Juan Vicente Gómez focuses instead on exploiting the country's resources for his friends, family and business partners. We begin to use the widespread telegraphic system in Venezuela to curtail the possibility of caudillo uprisings. Oil exploration projects that began in 1907/08 continue, with small wells popping up in few locations, but no major discoveries are made.
 * Russia: It is decided to invest more into the Navy, to match those of German and Great Britain.
 * Austria-Hungary: We work on our infrastructure, especially in Bosnia and Croatia. Multiple Catholic churches are built in Bosnia. The nation invests in the wood industry and fishing industry in the coastal regions, thus working on the economy.
 * Great Britain: As tensions in Europe rise, we begin to look else where for alliances. The US is offered a NAP, and Brazil, China and Argentina are offered full alliances. We encourge the other Entente nations to do the same (France and Russia). MIlitary and infrastrucutre are built up, with particular focus on our navy. We call upon the Irish rebels to the negotiation table, should they come, the are granted a final offer of Domain of the Empire. We call France and Russia to the negotiation table about what to do in the event of war with Germany. In a seperate meeting, we ask Japan what to do about Germany's Pacific colonies. As tensions run high in Ireland, the Royal army moves in to occupy Belfast and Dublin. Fearing that Britain's attention is too far spread, the King enters talks to help alliviate this issue.
 * British Raj: As a push for greater self rule continues. The British construct naval bases in Southern India to deal with piracy. The military is improved and trade is increased, allowing for a larger economic development in the coming age. The training of irregulars/recurits begins.
 * Australia (all colonies on the island):  Naval bases are constructed in the north in the event of war with Germany. Infrastrucutre improves.
 * New Zealand: Naval bases are construcuted on the northern islands in case of war with Germany.
 * Bhutan and Nepal: Military/Economy Improve.
 * South Africa: Construction of new buildings improves the infrastrucutre. An army of 80,000 are stationed in case of rebelion. Military improves.
 * North and South Rhodesia: Military and economy improve.
 * Domain of Canada, Belize, and other North American Colonies ( Canada is still open if one desires): Away from Many of the tensions of Europe and the Pacific, these colonies improve infrastructure and economy, increasing trade across the empire.
 * Newfoundland: Serving as the gateway for British North American trade, The UK constructs military bases to protect British economic intrests. Economy improves, as foregin and domestic  trade is comman in these ports.
 * Gold Coast and Sierra Leon: Military/Economy improve.
 * Nigeria; Military and infrastrcture improve. Military Bases are constructed along the border with German Cameroon.
 * Kenya and Uganda: Military and infrastrucutre improve. Military Bases are built along the German Colonial border.
 * Sudan and Somalilland: Military and Economy improve.
 * Hong Kong: Military and economy improve. Naval bases are construcuted to protect British Intrests.
 * British Oman, Kuwait, and Qatar: Military and Economy improve.
 * Argentine D: We politly refuse the alliance and stay neatral, but the British are offered 20% cheeper than normal beef meat if they agree to invest in some new meat prosessing works in the provinces of Chubut and Santa Fe. We offer a NAP to Brazil, Bolivia, the USA and the British untill Europe calms down again.
 * British Dip: We accept the NAP, but will only accept the beef offer if this is a deal exclusive to Britan.
 * Argentine D: Agreed.
 * Liberia was an American client state, not a Britsh colony in 1914.
 * My bad, ment for that to say Sierra Leon


 * Siamese D.: We request to purchase the Shan states so that we can be reunited with our countrymen.
 * British Dip: the King poletily declines this offer but is willing to reconsider this offer in the future. The British do ask for an alliance and offer to aid in Naval development if the alliance is accepted.
 * Siam agrees.


 * Siam: The King, percieved as too foreign-influenced and weak, loses control of the government as a party of reactionary army officers seizes control. They order elections, write a constitution, and create a legislature, resulting in the election of the newly formed Social Democratic Party. The king remains as a figurehead. Siam begins to aggressively modernize its economy, constructing industry and transportation routes to increase the countries economic capacity. The country modernizes quickly, follwoign the policies of the post-Meiji Japanese governemnt to become a modern, industrialized economy. As a result, industrial capacity triples. With its new wealth, Siam requests to purchase the rebeelious and poor colony of Laos from France. Mods?
 * Completely plausible, as France had trouble controlling Indo-China, and wasn;t really in the best economic state at this time. I'd like for a second mod opinion. SwankyJ (talk) 22:28, April 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * Too much land I think, but if the war starts I think France would want to sell it.
 * Laos was really poor; it only produced 1% of Indochinas exports. In 1910 I think there were only 600 French in the country.Krasnoyarsk (talk) 22:45, April 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * They Won't give it up until they need some money in the Great War. Hasn't started yet, pretty soon. 

'''It was mostly humid jungle with only a few roads and towns. It was very under-developed back then.Whipsnade (talk) 00:14, April 16, 2014 (UTC)'''
 * Germany: We continue to produce more naval ships to match the Royal Navy of Britain. The army continues to expand.

1914.5
WONT BE HERE BY 1:00 UTC PUTTING UP EVENTS AND MY MOVE

''' The Tampico Affair occurs. The United States occupies Veracruz. Mexico cuts diplomatic relations with the United States due to the Ypiranga Incident  and the Tampico Affair. The Mexican Revolution begins shortly afterword. '''

''' The Home Rule Act of 1914 is presented to the British Parliament. '''

''' Franz Ferdinand, Archduke of Austria and his wife Sophie are assassinated in Sarajevo by young Serbian nationalist Gavrilo Princip. '''

' The RMS Empress of Ireland'' sinks. It is the largest Canadian maritime accident in peacetime with over 1,000 lost. '''

'''For the record, please look on Wikipedia for major events. Some events may be implausible due to in-game reasons so make sure to check the game if there is anything regarding it. Thank you. Blocky858 (talk) 02:30, April 16, 2014 (UTC)'''

'''Thinking about it, I haven't stated that Franz goes to Sarajevo. How could he be assassinated then? Sky Green 24 10:47, April 16, 2014 (UTC)'''

Exactly my point ^ Blocky858 (talk) 22:52, April 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * Ottoman Empire We continue to build our military and our economy. The sultan finds interest in planes for warfare and messaging. So he contacts British and German plane building company's for parts. We send troops to the the colonial rebellions to defeat them and to keep them under control. SECRET: We ask AH and Germany for an alliance.
 * ​German Dip: We agree to the alliance.
 * Austria Hungary Dip: We also agree.
 * Argentina:The OTL 1912 political- Law 8871, known as the "Sáenz Peña Law", comes in to force in 1914. It reforms the Argentine electoral system, making the vote secret, universal and compulsory for males over 18; so effectively ended fraudulent rule of the nation's oligarchy. The cut price beef deal with the British is honored.They are toto upgraded our few meat processing units in Chubut, Santa Fe and Entre Ríos Provinces as part of the deal. Tucumán province's roads are improved slightly. Argentina is concerned over any future break down of commerce or any raids on it's beef and wheat industries.The year long work starts on 4 lesser sloops of war and 2 monitors to patrol our coastline for the time being. Long turm neutralty is to be maintained. They are based on plans akin to-

 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Mohican_(1883)
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hu%C3%A1scar_(ship)
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMVS_Cerberus
 * United States of America: We continue to maintain neutralty, and attempt to find a peaceful solution to the Ypiranga Incident. Naval expassion continues, and we build 2 new capital ships, the USS Michigan and USS Jefferson. Both are deployed for the atlantic, and we begin being more open about trade. Immagration from other nations sees the Ku Klux Klan begin gaining support in the South, and mounting raids upon Immagrents in the US. The federal Government tries to keep the peace, but it is half hearted. We begin a rescue operation for the passangers of the RMS Empress of Ireland, and search for survivours. Many come to the US, were we begin providing homes for them until Britain can supply proper aid.
 * Austria-Hungary: We work on our military and economy.
 * Venezuela: We offer our full sympathies and respects to the victims of the RMS Empress of Ireland sinkage and the attack on the Austro-Hungarian Archduke. Our President would be happy to attend Ferdinand's funeral representing Venezuela. An economic plan is written up to cancel all outstanding Venezuelan international debts, we plan to reach this goal by 1918, meanwhile the economy improves slowly but surely thanks to new literacy programs across the country. However we are untrusting of labour unions, and we prohibit companies from building oil refineries on Venezuelan soil. Companies begin to favour the nearby Dutch islands of Aruba and Curaçao for oil exploration as a result.
 * Argentine D: We offer our full sympathies and respects to the victims of the RMS Empress of Ireland sinking. 
 * Siam: The economy continues to modernize as the country industrializes. Economic reforms include a unified modern currency, banking, commercial and tax laws, stock exchanges, and a communications network. The new Bank of Siam stabiizes the economy and provides loans and the money for the conitnuation of a massive industrial expansion. Manufactured goods production increases, including weapons and military goods. Siam begins to produce modern rifles and guns based on foreign models, although they are still inferior in many cases. A modern education system is put in place using the government's new tax resources for all young people, while thousands of students are sent overseas to learn new skills.
 * Brazil: We start to make our own versoin of what we think a tank looks. Venceslau Bras execpts the trade agreement with the Ottoamans. We give the Ottomans timber and food and in return they give us oil. Our navy starts to build ships. With an assassination happening in Serbia, we increase our military just incase something happens. Weapons are being mass produced in our factories. We send medical aid and weapons to Austia-Hungary, after what happend to their leader.


 * Great Britian:  Military     is built up, along with infrastrucuture. in light of the recent assasination and fearing a war between the major powers of Europe call for a meeting in London or, if permited, Brussels to discuss the issues of a war between major powers. With carful deleberation, the Irish state is granted Domainship within the empire. Naval build up remains a chief concern of the empire, though the Navy remains the strongest in the world, rivialed closely by Germany.
 * British Raj:  Economy and Infrastructure are built up.
 * Domain of Canada: Economy and Infrastructure are built up.
 * Newfoundland: Economy and Military are built up. Naval bases are constucted.
 * Gold Coast and Sierra Leon: Economy and Infrastrcutre are built up.
 * Nigeria: Military bases are constructed through out the nation in case of German attack. Economy is built up.
 * Egypt: Work on Military and Economy begins.
 * Sudan: Economy and Infrastrucutre improve.
 * Kenya and Uganda: MIlitary bases are consturucted in case of German attack.
 * South Africa: Military and Economy are built up.
 * North and South Rhodenisa: economy and infrastrucuture are built up.

 * Australia: Military and infrastrucutre are built up. Naval bases are construcuted to protect the colony
 * New Zealand: Same as above.
 * Bahamas: Economy and infrastrucutre are built up
 * Belize and other Carreibeian colonies: Infrastrucutre and Economy are built up.
 * Guyiana: Economy and Military are built up.
 * France: The Military is rapidly modernised, and a new, camouflaged Uniform is designed. We begin training exercises, and following a test in which we fire a huge barrage of Shells at trenchs, and are disheartened to discover that nothing happens to the trench. We also recognise that should it come to war, we will need the women to take a pivotal role in factory work, so begin training them in special classes. A new tactic is thought up, to use Artillery better; the rolling barrage. We decide to send a diplomat to London to discuss fears of war.
 * Germany: With war near in Europe, we look back on old ideas submitted to the War Ministry to see if there was anything that could be of use in a war. We review the idea for an armored, light, three man vehicle with a revolving turret, submitted by Gunther Burstyn in 1911. We approve it, and start making plans to build it. We continue building new naval ships, wishing to have a fleet equal to or greater than the Royal Navy. We start conscripting more men for the army, as it seems war is imminent.
 * British Dip: We request you attened a meeting in London in hopes to calm tensions
 * German Dip: We accept to come to London.

 * Argentina: We improve northern infrastructure slightly and hold a urban literacy campaign. Sheep and cattel are adored as a commodity and expand ranches. The Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires province and Tucumán province's roads are improved slightly. The port of La Boca on the Matanza River is upgraded slightly. Beef production goes up due to the new processing plants. Buenos Aires province strategic infrastructure such as armament stores, sewers, food processing plants, railways and telegraph lines are upgraded notably. Low level copper prospecting occurs in San Juan Province. A pilot-less hot air balloon is launched across the coast near La Boca port, wafts over our 2 brand new Rivadavia class battleships and is blasted out of the skies with navel cannon fire. 12 out of 15 allotted shells expended, but number 12 did hit it. We were concerned that airplanes and hot air balloons might be weaponized by the Europeans and/or the USA in a future conflict. We watch the Mexican civil war with concern.

 * Argentine Diplomacy: We invite the British in to financing a new railway that links Buenos Aires Docks to the city of Buenos Aires.

Mods decide for NPC Uraguay and Bolivia.
 * Serbia: We build up are military and begin to build fortifications on the border with Austria-Hungary.
 * Austria-Hungary: Due to pressure issued by the Croatian province, a reformation of Austria-Hungary is debated.

Due to earlier acts of our neighbours, we raise funds going to the military and improve the infrastructure in regions such as Vojvodina and Bosnia.
 * Venezuela: The economy continues to improve, with literacy programs ongoing and unemployment falling as the state explores how to use and benefit from the large petroleum deposits of the nation, however companies and foreign investors are still rejected in favour of the President's family and friends. Malaria is the greatest killer in Venezuela, and with living conditions not improving much, we begin to research treatments. Community participation and health education strategies promoting awareness of malaria (as well as increased availability of mosquito nets) also occurs, and we call on other nations with malaria and mosquito problems to help in finding effective treatment and cure methods. The navy is slightly improved as we are disturbed by the ongoing conflicts in Mexico.

Moe jobs are being created in our factories with the mass production of military stuff being made. We increase education and incourage people to get an education. Equal rights are given to all people of the country.

'''Implausible. Ottoman Brazil relations were kinda rough'''

For the record, Venezuela hasn't joined the Central Powers

You don't have the industrial capability to build tanks that quick, or design them.

 * Accepted.
 * Germany: We produce a prototype of the so called 'tank' idea. The tank is a one-ton, four wheel track, rectangular vehicle, with a single rotating turret. The gun is more or less a 20mm cannon. The crew is four: a driver, gunner, loader, and co-driver. It has a top speed of 60 kph, similar to some cars. The armor is thin at 15 mm. It is named the GAT-01. We begin producing more airplanes, balloons, and zeppelins for the Imperial German Flying Corps. We continue to produce naval ships and continue to conscript.
 * United States: We remain neutral but we are building up our military. We send aid to people recovering from the Lassen Peak eruption in California.
 * Siam: Institutes conscription, expanding the military and creating a large pool of reservists.

player events
 * Argentina: We also begin to research malaria treatments. Community participation and health education strategies promoting awareness of malaria and make the increased availability of mosquito nets in the malaria hit northern provinces of Formosa, Jujuy, Misiones and Salta. We have a whale of a time using Southern Right Whales to make industrial grade soap with. Low level copper prospecting occurs in San Juan Province and Chubut Province. A low level oil drilling operation of our own occurs at Comodoro Rivadavia and looks promising. We start building a final ship base on the ARA Almirante Brown (1880) and 4 whalers of our own. Malargüe town, the home of Argentine garlic has its roads slightly upgraded, as does the town of Comodoro Rivadavia. The army is equipped with modern rifles, machine guns and artillery modelled after foreign weapons. We regret to hear about the tram crash and ferry sinking in thr USA.


 * Argentine diplomacy:
 * 1/We offer the USA the rights to prospect for and set up 2 oil wells at Comodoro Rivadavia in Chubut Province. In payment Argentina would like 5 America Steamwhalers similar this Canadian model.
 * 2/The British are offered 10% price cut lamb supply in exchange for 5 America Steamwhalers similar this Canadian model.
 * 3/The French are offered 10% cut price garlic and potatoes in exchange for some technical help on our Andean Mountain roads.


 * United States Diplomacy: We accept the trade offer to set up 2 oil wells in exchange for 5 steamwhalers


 * Ottoman Empire: Roads and water wells are upgraded in western Anatolia, Damascus and Baghdad. Whilst due to the ATL fact there is no ATL war, and so no OTL/ATL mass call up, which now never lead to the [siege of the ethnically Arminian and anti-war city of Van]; ethnic tensions still traditionally bubble with ethnic Armenians, Arabs, Greeks and Kurds. The idea of giving the remote and rebellious Mutawakkilite Kingdom of Yemen and the Kurdish rebels of Diyarbekir Vilayet and Mosul city a small piece of local religious and trade authority is mooted. The hostile Saudi Sultanate of Nejd is to be watched closely. The army is equipped with modern rifles, machine guns and artillery modelled after foreign weapons. We attend the London Conference.


 * *Ottoman Diplomacy: A mutual protection treaty like the OTL the is offered To Bulgaria and also the friendly Rashidi Emirate of Ha'il. An Ottoman olive oil for Bulgarian sheep produce trade deal is offered. Mods to decide player-less NPC Bulgarian and Rashidi response.

In OTL the Rashidi Emirate of Ha'il was pro-Ottoman since it was fiercely anti-Saudi Najd and waned a fellow Muslim allies to help defeat the Saudis.
 * Spain: After hearing of a possible new strain of influenza possibly developing within its borders, the Spanish Government moves to quarantine the sick, even if they only have the common cold, for anyone could carry the flu and not know it, then unknowingly pass it on. Development of malaria treatments also begin, especially in advance of a secret plan to retake their old Caribbean colonies, especially Cuba. They know if they are to be victorious, Spain must develop aircraft. After looking over the country's industry, the decision is made to convert the entire rail network to standard gauge in order to be able to connect with the rest of the European rail network. The factories also recieve new technology, with an emphasis on mass production and safety. Fearing an attack from France to be inevitable after an unconfirmed report of French spies getting wind of the Caribbean Stratagem, Spain requests an alliance with Germany.
 * North Morocco: Additional troops and ships are sent to fortify against a possible strike by a local anti-Spanish warlord.
 * German Dip: We accept the alliance.
 * Siam: Siam continues to expand its military. many of the ships laid down last year are completed, giving Siam lots of short-range transports and some destroyers. Two cruisers are put under construction. The reserrves keep training, expanding Siam's pool of prospective soldiers, while about a quarter of the government's budget is put into the emergency fund. Siam looks on the repression of its ethnic brethren in the Dutch colonies in Indonesia with dislike, especially the massacres and repression in the Acehnese Sultanate. Worried of suffering the amse thing, Siam decides to act preemptively and launches a surprise attack on Dutch Borneo, using its transports to rush its troops across the straits before the stronger Dutch fleet can respond. It sends about 20,000 men to scout the Dutch positions before attacking out of the jungle. The Dutch, restricted mainly to the coastal strip, are taken by surprise. Helped by local Malays and Sea Dayak pirates, Simese troops rout the unprepared Dutch in a battle at Pontianak, taking the city, and force the retreat or surrendr of the surviving Dutch, who are treated humanely (although some are exectued by vengeful headhunters). Siam sends an expedition to explore Marie Byrd Land in Anarctica.
 * British Dip:We wish to confirm our alliance
 * Venezuela: The Bolivar Coastal Field is discovered, 35 miles long and estimated to be the largest oil field in South America. In response, the government begins to offer concessions to Venezuelan businesses allowing them to drill for oil although taxes are heavy and labor unions heavily regulated. The fight against malaria continues but with no significant breakthroughs, although rates of infection are noticeably in decline thanks to the ongoing awareness programs and mosquito net rollouts. We thank Argentina for their help in researching a treatment.
 * Siamese D: Offers Venezuela a trade pact
 * Venezuelan D: We accept this offer.
 * British Dip: WE offer and alliance and in exchange we will acknloedge Venezuleas claim to the WESTERN HALF of Guyania.
 * Brazil:  Since our first tank prototype was a success we build more in our factories. We ask to join the side of the central powers. In the amazon rain forest, we drill for oil. A new program is made for flying and the making of airplanes. The first prototype plane is being built. More ships are being made for our navy. The millitary drafts more troops for our boarder control team. More people are getting an education in technology. Just in case we get hit with malaria, You already have it , we also begin to research malaria treatments. Community participation and health education strategies promoting awareness of malaria and make the increased availability of mosquito nets.With the Military of Argintina equipping themselves with modern rifles, machine guns and artillery modelled after foreign weapons, we do the same. We now watch Argintina very carefully. We make prototype versions of the rifle, machine guns and other weapons.
 * Again, no industrial capability to do something massive like that. Also, Brazil isn't able to get such a massive boost in college education, especially technologic areas. And making treatment against malaria "just in case" is pretty asb. 
 * Brazil today is now about 40% major risk and 60% minor risk of malaria . He has a reason to use malaria nets, but it would be a lot more prevalent back in 1915. A full health campaign is needed, not just an odd bit 'just in case'. 
 * Argentine D: We put forward plans for Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and Chile to form an economic and tradeing block in the agricultural sector. The block would try and get the best deals for local exsporters off of European importers and start under cutting non member rivals with cheep exports from member states..
 * Venezuelan D: We are disappointed that we have been excluded from this plan, which we believe would pave the way for closer integration between the countries of Latin America and help us to avoid tensions and conflict akin to that of Europe.
 * Argentine D: Venezuela can join if they wish to.
 * German Dip: We accept Brazil into the Central Powers.
 * Venezuelan D: Venezuela joins the South American trade bloc.
 * Germany: With the GAT-01 being mildly successful in miltary tests, specifically reconnaisance and anti-infantry, we decide to begin production of 100 models. We keep making new ships and planes for the armed forces. We also keep conscripting. We begin testing new rifles and machine guns for use. We send two bomber zeppelins over the Netherlands and Belgium. We begin to mobilize our armies. We begin developing the military and economy. The 65th Infantry regiment marches from Cologne into east Liege, occupying the German-speaking communities. The action is confirmed to be an actual order given by the General staff. They say they wish to protect the ethnic German population.
 * British Dip: We ask that you remove soldiers from Belgium, a historically neutral nation
 * Argentine D: We ask for a formal alliance and a trade deal with with Venezuela,France, USA and/or the British. We reasure Brazil we do not want to cause them harm.
 * Britsh Dip: Accepted.
 * United States Diplomacy: We accept the formal alliance with Argentina.
 * Venezuelan D: We agree to the alliance and trade deal. Amidst the revolution in Mexico, conflict in the West Indies, and Belgium fiasco we propose joint military training exercises between our newly allied nations. We also assume the UK will respect our territorial claims in western Guyana as part of this alliance.
 * British Empire: We seek to Confirm alliances Japan.
 * ​Great Britain: We are displeased with the Current war, as we blieve that it violates the neutrality of Belgium. Military and Economy are built up.

The town is agriculture the center of production of seed potatoes, along with minor crops such as alfalfa, onion and garlic. Oil exploration starts on a small way and the firm YPF is found the work. Uranium ore is found, but is considered not worth mining, since all it’s good for is things like glow in the dark singeing night visible watches . The international borders of Misiones, Entre Ríos, Corrientes and Formosa provinces are fortified with a 4 foot tall earth berm wall, a few guns and loads of barbed wire. Buenos Aires port is upgraded and linked to Buenos Aires city by a light railway.
