Novum Saeculum (Map Game)

Novum Saeculum, or New Age in Latin is a game that starts in the Middle Ages, a time of conflict and chaos. These times were plagued by war, and people were kept in the dark about the world around them. Europe was ruled by religion, and was divided by small tribes scattering the area. No one country was able to rise above the other. But in the light of a new age, you are forced to take charge and move above the other players. Forced to fight against the other feudal kingdoms, you have to try to become the worlds first power. Take charge against them, before you fade into obscurity. Welcome to Novum Saeculum.

Rules
While there will be other pages for more detailed rules for different applications of the game, here are the basic rules of the game that everyone should keep in mind:
 * The main goal of these rules are to keep the game realistic. Every turn must be plausible and no one can achieve world domination in ten turns,
 * A turn is one day. Each turn is composed of actions, which can be militaristic, economic, diplomatic or constructive.
 * Turns begin at 00:00 UTC. You have one hour after this to edit the turn immediately before. Other past turns may not be edited.
 * Any conquered lands have their inhabitants, and they must be dealt with.
 * Keep in mind the linguistic effects of conquering and colonisation.
 * Every five years a map is to be made. A moderator marked as the Mapmaker will edit the map.
 * Every map must be saved as a .png on the current map template.
 * Each player will "call" a nation, this will be their main nation.
 * The moderators of this game have the power to grant and regulate all technology for each state as well as regulate plausibility. They also have the right to create random yet plausible and fair events in any and every nation throughout the course of the game.
 * Espionage is allowed and will be detailed later, there is a clear distinction between espionage and meta-gaming.
 * Alliances and unions are allowed as is bargaining to achieve these, although remember to be plausible.
 * If a nation is inactive then it is considered to have become isolationist and is fair game for conquering and attacking. However, there will be resistance.
 * There are supernational confederations (e.g. The Holy Roman Empire, The Kalmar Union, The European Union, The African Union, etc). They function like alliances and can be broken and formed.
 * You can commission privateers to raid a nation's shipping but they will reduce relations with the nation you hired them against.
 * The game ends in the present year.
 * Profile pages for your state are highly recommended.
 * If you are new, you may start the game in the turn that you joined.
 * No editing any past turns to contradict events which have already happened.
 * Not everyone can have an industrialized, liberal, stable, peaceful nation.
 * Each player is allowed one switch from their current nation to a new one. Other than that, nation switching is not allowed unless your nation is annexed or destroyed by war.
 * Moderators act as junior admins, all they can do is cross out years and comment on them. If abused, they may be impeached.
 * A turn will last two years until 1560. When 1560 is reached, there will be one-year turns for the remainder of the game.
