Congress of Vienna - Reinstalled (Map Game)

This is a reinstallation of the other map game.

The other (unsuccesful) reinstallation ended with nobody actually playing, probably since most were uncomfortable with following another's footsteps. So I'm trying it all over again.

NOT DONE YET

The Rules

 * 1) All pages, including country pages, diplomatic pages, algorithm and algorithm result pages and archives will all be marked with "(Congress of Vienna Reinstalled - Map Game)"
 * 2) Game starts in 1816 and whenever 8 players joined
 * 3) One year per turn. One turn per day. Anyone can start a turn, not just a mod.
 * 4) One nation per player. Players can be IPs, but be sure to use the same IP everytime.
 * 5) 15 years per archive.
 * 6) Every physical inventions (i.e. real inventions, not new science concepts) can only be made at most 25 years earlier than OTL
 * 7) You can be an occupied nation and declare independence, albeit only if you are in Europe/Canada or you declare independence from the US. Otherwise you'd have to wait until the 1920s.
 * 8) Very important: You can only play Europe or Morocco. The US is open after 1830. After 1868, you can also play China and Japan, unless those countries are already occupied. You cannot colonize more lands before 1830 either.
 * 9) Two minor divergences are made, to simplify the map and the game: The Southern German Alliance System led by Bavaria, consists of all German Confederation states not listed below, nor belongs to a foreign power (Hannover,  Holstein,  Luxembourg) and the Northern Italian Federation including five of the seven Italian states (Parma, Modena, Tuscany, Luca, Venetia)
 * 10) Algorithm: The Rules are at Algorithm (CoV Reinstalled) and the Results will be compiled not in the talk page, but in the separate Algorithm Results (CoV Reinstalled).
 * 11) Expansion into non-country areas will be limited to 10% of your current area.
 * 12) After an algorithm that the attacker wins, any territory conquered would be joined by the same colour to the first country that declared war in the attacker side. The border, if any, would still be there, so people could easily divide the conquered territory into sections by a peace agreement after the war.

1816
The Low Countries and Denmark negotiate the North Sea Alliance to rebuild pre-war economic and political conditions. Sweden-Norway and Britain are invited to the Alliance.

An extremely hot summer arrives in the Mediterranean. The Papal States and the Ottoman Empire end all hostilities and the Papal States urged all Catholic states to end tensions with the Ottomans, to which only Two Sicilies, Spain and Portugal complied. The Papal States, the Ottoman Empire, Two Sicilies, Spain, Portugal and Montenegro joined negotiations for a Mediterranean Trade Alliance, but this was suspended after ALBANIANS AND GREEKS REVOLTED AGAINST THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE. Opinions were then spread: Montenegro, Portugal and Two Sicilies supported the Ottomans  with 500, 3000 and 2000 troops respectively, but Spain enforced the rebels with 7000 troops. The Ottomans ordered 7,000 troops from Asian provinces to move to Europe to defend the European territories. The Papal States remained neutral and urged calm for negotiations.

Meanwhile, a meeting was held in Monaco between Monaco, Liechtenstein, Andorra, San Marino and some of the smallest German states about their microstate status. San Marino, Monaco, Andorra and Liechtenstein (collectively know as the SMAL-League) declared neutrality.

''Game announcement: We need about 4 mods and 2 or 3 mapmakers. Sign up above. Players of Neutral countries and experienced players (please demonstrate your experience by listing your past games at my talk page) will have preference over others.''

Northern Italy: following Papal calls to calmness in the Ottoman territories, we urge parties to the conflict to end the armed conflict and enter peaceful talks. The Crown Council draft a Constitution, with legislative power to be granted to a popularly elected Parliament. The Federal Army and Federal Navy is formed with 50,000 forces in total. January 7th will hold Parliamentary election.

Swiss Confederacy: the Cities of Geneva and Zürich are improved, with many houses being built, economy is improved thanks to our neutrality.

Portugal: The Portuguese Crown returns to Lisbon and we ask Great Britain to abandon the protectorate over our nation. As a reward to the Brazilians for allowing our King in the time of need and giving them care and conditions we elevate Brazil as an integral part of Portugal rather than a colony. All children from the Royal Family return, including the heir to the Portuguese throne, Pedro. As liberal ideas continue to run our nation, many purpose the King a shift to a constitutional monarchy and he promises to look into it. We also send troops to occupy Olivença, which was given to us by the Treaty of Vienna and was an integral part of Portugal before the Napoleonic Wars. We continue expanding our African, Indian and Timor colonies. We offer the Netherlands to purchase Eastern Timor and we ask the Ottoman Empire that in exchange of helping them against the Greeks they allow us to conquer Oman. We are in favour of a Mediterranean Trade Alliance and we also contact other European nations looking for better relations. We swear to Britain to continue our long-lasting friendship and we will help France recover from the revolutionary times if they wish so. Albania Seeing the weakening of the Ottomans following the Greek revolt, the Pahaliks of Scutari, Janina and Berat all seize the opportunity to declare themselves independent. The three Pashaliks meet in Durres and declare the formation of an independent Albanian Confederation. They are swiftly able to gain the support of most of the tribal chieftains by promising them roles in the new government, enabling them to muster about 30,000 men. They fortify the passes around Pogradec and Vlore, and appeal for international assistance and support against the tyrannical Ottomans. Diplomats are sent to petition Austria to join this "war of liberation". Albania also offers to form a united front with Greece. The Kingdom of Spain experiences a minor shock as King Ferdinand VII dies suddenly of heart failure. This splinters support among the Spanish people, who were already debating liberalism vs conservatism. Supporters of conservatism support Infante Carlos as Carlos V while the liberals declare support for Infante Francisco de Paula, who is currently in Rome. The support for Carlos V primarily comes from Castile and Leon, Madrid, and Castile-La Mancha, while support for the liberals and Francisco come from the north (Asturias, Galicia, Navarre, and the Basque Country), west (Extremadura), east (Catalonia, Aragon, and Valencia), and south (Andalusia). Carlos V, who is already in Madrid, is coronated but about half of Spain refuses to accept this claim. As the Congress of Vienna is called, supporters from both sides arrive. Their primary goal is to seek support for their side, but they also advocate for support in the colonies. In the colonies, most juntas pledge support to Francisco, whose adviser is the exiled Manual de Godoy. A campaign is led by Godoy and Francisco, with the backing of Portugal (pending) and invades from the north and west. The invasion is met with great popular support, and soon only the area immediately surrounding Madrid remains under Carlos V's control.
 * Ottoman Dip: We approve Portuguese conquest of Oman.
 * Mod note: No alterations to the world map until 1830 please (rule 8: no additional colonization until 1830). You can take Oman in 1830 as the Ottomans approved
 * Spanish (Liberal) Diplomacy: Infante Francisco and Manuel de Godoy seek Portuguese help in the ongoing Civil War. This would be in exchange for Spanish support in removing the British protectorate.
 * Portuguese Dip: We will support the new Liberal government of Spain and we ask that instead of helping against the British, who are our allies and we are sure they will take their troops out of our nation soon, we ask that Ceuta, originally a Portuguese city and still withstanding some Portuguese heritage to be returned to Portugal
 * Piedmontese Diplomacy: We offer warm relations and an alliance to Portugal.
 * Portuguese Dip: We accept the alliance request from Piedmont with open arms. We also ask for a Royal Marriage between our two houses, since we are looking for a wife for our heir Pedro. We also state that Piedmont should join the Mediterranean Trade Alliance, and we ask the other invited states to start conversations
 * Piedmontese Diplomacy: We are open to a royal marriage and propose Princess Maria Teresa as a bride, but she is unfortunately only 13, though we would be willing to marry her to Pedro in 1820 (year of her OTL marriage). We a;sp state interest in joining the Mediterranean Trade Alliance.
 * Piedmontese Dip: We support the Albanians and offer to send supplies.
 * Albanian D: We gratefully accept the Piedmontese offer.
 * Mod note: Please create an algorithm for your war.
 * Already done. Algorithm Results (CoV Reinstalled)

Sardinia-Piedmont: The navy and army are expanded upon, especially the navy. Very basic industrialization begins along the coast, in central Sardinia, and in Turin. Conservatives control the government and delegate more power to the aristocracy, but King Emmanuel also does his best to insure that only the most competent get any real positions of power.
 * Piedmontese Diplomacy: We offer warm relations and to the Austrians.

Denmark: We sign an alliance with the Low Countries, and build up relations between us. We bring up our military, and attempt to bring up morale with the US. Great Britain: We enter the North-Sea Alliance negotiations. We expand the military and economy.
 * Again, no out-of-Europe.
 * Note that the NSA is still in negotiations process and will not be officially signed for some time.
 * Portuguese Dip: We ask Great Britain to de-occupy our nation and we ask for the continuance of the old alliance between our two nations and for warm relations
 * Wait, am I occupying you? 
 * The British left some troops in Portugal OTL, to rule until the King returned. They had to be kicked out by a revolution (just trying to avoid that)
 * Oh, okay
 * British Dip: We inform Portugal that the troops will leave, as your king has returned. Our alliance will continue, and we would like to get a few trade deals.

Russian Empire: Russian Empire begins to improve economy and build up its military. An Albanian Revolt occurs in OTL Albania, Ottoman Empire and Russia nicely supports the Albanian rebels by sending money and weapons that produced in Russia. Population continues to grow, with over 500,000 people added in each year thanks to Czar Alexander I of Russia and the Population act of 1816.

Greece: Peasants and Christians alike revolt against the Ottoman Empire.

1817
Tensions rise in Lithuania after a drunker Russian tax-collector knocks out a Lithuanian farmer in a tavern. The man dies, whereupon several of his family lynch the tax-collector in reply. Russian officials are booed in the streets of Riga and Vilnius.

An epidemic of foot-and-mouth disease devastates the Scottish wool industry. On the plus side, the price of mutton plummets.

In the Kingdom of Spain, the Civil War is resolved with the conservative forces of Carlos V slowly losing ground to the liberal forces of Francisco de Paula and his adviser, Manuel de Godoy. The ultimate battle, which took place to the north of Madrid, say Carlos V captured. His arrest sparked great upheaval among the conservative camp, allowing Francisco's forces to take the capital, where he was crowned as Rey Francisco I de España. Francisco thanks the Portuguese forces for their assistance, but he refuses to cede Ceuta, citing the Treaty of Lisbon, that was signed in 1668, that granted Ceuta to Spain and revoked Portuguese claims to the city and its port. We do, however, send them some monetary compensation. Meanwhile, Manuel de Godoy, as the new Prime Minster of Spain, gets down to work with liberal thinkers and begins to plan for the mass liberalization of Spain. The first official decree of Francisco is to liberate all imprisoned "traitors to the Spanish crown" who advocated for the Constitution of 1812. He then puts the document into effect (at least temporarily) after his brother had removed it in 1814. Francisco then extends the same promise to all primary Latin American colonies provided that they continue to remain loyal to the crown. Francisco extends a hand of friendship out to his kinsman, King Louis XVIII of France, promising to restore France's old order. Great Britain: The British army officially leaves Portugal. We expand the military and economy.
 * Spain: Seeks alliances with France, Naples, and Great Britain.
 * British Dip: We accept.

Northern Italy: '''Following the election, the vast majority of the parliament is organized Into three parties. To the right was the Conservative Party (67/200) who trusted the current structure of the Federation; to the left was the Reform Party (66/200) who demanded further centralization of the federation; and the Royalist Party (63/200) who were simply nobles and wealthy men satisfied with the economy. Four politicians still sat as independents. The government is formed with the Crown Council and Parliament's approval. This government of 20 actually consisted of nine conservatives, six royalists and five reformists. Meanwhile, a new constitution version Is drafted, but does not satisfy any of the parties' demands. The Army and Navy is strengthened further. We urge the Ottomans to retreat from Albanian and Greek lands and Instead focus on Slavs (Bulgarians, Serbs and Macedonians)''' Sardinia-Piedmont: The navy and army are expanded upon, especially the navy. Very basic industrialization begins along the coast, in central Sardinia, and in Turin. Conservatives control the government and delegate more power to the aristocracy, but King Emmanuel also does his best to insure that only the most competent get any real positions of power. King Emmanuel also begins to try pushing legislation to end Salic Law, this would allow for one of his daughters to inherit the throne rather than his youngest brother, Charles Felix, as Emmanuel has no son.
 * Ottoman Empire: The Ottomans do not recognize the move and send a warning that they should not interfere with the crisis.
 * Northern Italy: We are just advising what you should do, and we will not Interfere with It. The basic reason why we advise you so is that Slavs affiliate with Russians, so they can power a larger threat than Albanians and Greeks who are culturally and linguistically Isolated and less likely to ally with a great power, and thus you could more easily retain control.
 * Ahh. OK. -Sergi

Ottoman Empire: The Ottoman Empire moves regiments to Tirana (Albania's Capital) And to Korçë keeping the "Albo- Greek Riots" Away.. Meanwhile, The Ottomans also try to convert the Orthodox Serbs, Orthodox Romanians to convert into Islamic Ottomans. Also the Ottomans take navy and blockades Durrës, Vlorë (Albanian Ports) to later take siege of Albania. The Ottomans are recruiting Navy in İstanbul, Antalya. The Ottomans also recruit military in İstanbul, Ankara, Çorlu

Ottoman Dip: Sends a warning to Northern Italy. Tries to make alliance with '''Portugal, Two Sicilies. Asks "Call Of Arms" to Portugal'''


 * Portuguese Dip: We lend some troops and ships to the Ottoman Empire

Russian Empire: Russian Empire begins to improve economy and build up its military. Some revolutions in Ottoman Europe occurs in OTL Albania and Greece, Russia nicely supports the Albanian and Greek rebels by sending money and weapons that produced in Russia. Population continues to grow, with over 500,000 people added in each year thanks to Czar Alexander I of Russia and the Population act of 1816. In all cities over Siberia, most new houses and churches are built, more farms are built to feed its expending population. Russia also supports the Orthodox Romanians in Romania to don't let coveted to Islam by sending money and weapons that produced in Russia.

Portugal: After much deliberation, the King proclaims the end of the absolutism in Portugal and the creation of a Constitution. He forms a Cabinet of Ministers who are told to write a Constitution for Portugal. We hope that in 1818 the Constitution is ready to be installed. Meanwhile, the nation is now free of foreign troops and we say goodbye with pride of the British help. We also decide to invest in industrialization and some factories are opened in the Great Lisbon area. Many also state that a reform of the military is needed and fast, and so the military budget is increased slightly. We agree with the Royal marriage between our Kingdom and Piedmont to occur in 1820. The people are happy the King has returned and hopes for a new future are higher and higher. Albania: Having liberated much of Albania in the successful rising last year, the Albanian chieftains meet at Durres to decide their next move. Meanwhile, fortification of the southern passes and major cities continues. After hearing of the Ottoman advance on Tirana and Korçë, they decide to halt the Ottoman attack in the south. Fortunately, the Ottomans have sent only a few regiments, giving the Albanians a local superiority. Additionally, the irregular troops have rearmed over the winter with Russian arms. The chiefs can also call on around 10,000 well-trained Albanians who previously served in the Ottoman army but now fight for their motherland. Several dozen men are sent to foment rebellion in Serbia, now suffering from Ottoman conversion attempts.
