Industrial Revolution (Map Game)

Rules

 * The main goal of these rules is to keep the game realistic, therefore every turn must be plausible; one cannot take over the world in 10 turns.
 * Any land which is conquered has inhabitants, and they must be dealt with.
 * Every five turns, a map is to be made. The mapmakers should edit the map according to their nation's actions.
 * Each player will "call" a nation, one nation per player.
 * Actions like espionage are allowed and will be detailed later.
 * Alliances and dynastic unions are allowed, as is bargaining to achieve these.
 * If a nation is inactive, it is considered in civil disorder and thus fair game for conquering even if one was allied with it. However, resistance is stronger than if it was normally conquered.
 * There are supernational confederations (e.g. the Holy Roman Empire, the Kalmar Union), and they function like alliances. They can be broken (e.g. the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire) and they can be formed (e.g. the unification of Spain)
 * You can hire raiders/pirates and make them raid any nation's ship, but this greatly reduces that country's relationship with your nation.
 * The game ends in the present.
 * If you are new, you start the game in the turn you joined.
 * The game will start on Mar 4, or year 1780.
 * One OTL Day will be a year and one turn.
 * Turns start at 10 a.m. UTC every day, anybody can start the turn, not just a mod.
 * Archive every 15 years.
 * No nukes before 1910, no space before 1930. Random.org on who gets them first.
 * There won't be any UN until I delete this rule.
 * You can be an occupied nation and declare independence.
 * Random.org will decide who gets nukes first.
 * I will try everything for this map game to be able to switch to Visual Mode. Don't add complex styles to this page.
 * No important invention more than 25 years ahead of OTL.

1780
'''Mod Events: A native rebellion occurs in the Dutch Indies, creating the Empire of Java. Britain appears to have the upper hand in the American Revolutionary War, with Britain taking Charleston.'''

Morocco: Nation begins to modernize, and the military is built up as an invasion of the Ottomans is prepared for. Sultan Yazid launches a campaign of nationalism, and returning to the lcal Berber culture and reject many Arabic influences, meanwhil a Sufi movemant begins to take shape, but it is small and hardly known of. An alliance offer is sent to Spain. Expandion continues down OTL Western Sahara. Funding is sent to the Empire of Java, as a new Muslim state  in Asia would be beneficial to the Muslim World.

Sardinia:  A Modernization and Industrialization Program is launched. The government will do their best to boost every aspect of Sardinia, from the military to the economy, from logistics to the home front, and from culture to industralization, the government will begin to modernize, beginning with a large ship building and army upgrading program. Some 65,000 men are being called up as a national peacetime and wartime Army.

Piedmont-Sardinia could only field 30,000 soldiers during war, let alone peace.

USA: A Constitution is written and 11 new amendments are passed, with 10  from OTL and the 11th granting the Freedom of Self Determination (Secession) with the requirments being a 50.1% majority vote by the states people and at least 1/3 of Congress. The States aprove all 11, and America builds up its army and defeats the British at Saratoga and just outside of Philidelphia, taking back most of the Middle Colonies and a large chunk of the New England ones.
 * Morocco D: We offer funding for the Revolutionaries and guns, if America agrees to a trade deal and alliance after Independance.
 * America Gladly accepts the alliance offer and trade deal, offering plenty of resources and food in return for the weapons. We would love to have some ground forces as well.
 * Morocco D: We will send many soldiers to train your Revolutionaries, but since we do not wish a war with England we can not aid you in combat.

Didn't the Revolution end in 1776?

No, it started in 1776 and ended in 1783.

Spain: A new wave of expansion starts and some colonizers settle OTL Vancouver and the surrounding bay, while this, the military is built up, and Spain begins to modernize. Sardinia: An offer is sent to the USA revolutionaries for recognition, some supplies, and advisors in exchange for an alliance when they win.
 *   Morocco D: So about that alliance offer...

New Turn?

1781
USA: The USA capture  the southern colonies and liberates all the colonies. American forces then invade the western lands up to the Mississippi.

Mod event: Because of the many military campaigns of USA with little troops (35000 men), the Revolutionary army is overstretched and is beaten at Philadelphia, thus, Britain regained all land above the State of New York.

That's pretty ridiculous.

Brazil: With the Brazilian Gold Rush seeing to be ending, since most of the gold were already taken, habitants of the mining regions started complain over the Portuguese autority over Brazil, inspired by the USA. Rebellions start in the main mining cities, with the crown soldiers losing their weapons and forts across the colony. In Rio the rebels promised freedom to the slaves supporting the cause, and that was enough to then to close the port, stopping any loads of gold and tropical products. The main leaders of the several rebellions go to Rio to reach a main point and stand united against the common enemy. The goverment request a alliance with the USA, with both nations recognizing each other. The nation also requested help from France. Morocco: Continues industilization and modernization, staying on-par with European nations. Colonists are sent to southern Madagascar, and the nation continues expanding into the Western Sahara. Sufism continues to spread, and the government hires many archeologists and historians to delve into the nations past. The glass industry is built upon (as Morocco is mostlry desert). Troops are aligned along the African-Morocco border, a alliance is offered to Spain and France. Nationalism and radical nationalism are on the rise, and more power are given both to aristocrats and the people.
 * Morocco D: We offer to send funds and send officers to train your troops in return for an exclave in northern Amapa, as well as a trade deal.
 * Brazil D: We cannot simply give you land we are trying to liberate, but we can allow you to have tropical goods at a low price after the war is over.
 * Morocco D: Can I get military access?
 * Brazil D: If you help us in the war, maybe invading homeland Portugal will convince them to liberate us.
 * Morocco D: Perhaps...

China: Emperor Kangxi, after reading about the Voyages of Cheng He, takes an interest in the world beyond China. Kangxi finds European missionaries in China and hears from them tales of European cities and an interesting concept named "Colonization". Thus, Kangxi starts building a fleet for departare next year, that will set up a colony in Madagascar and sail to Europe to learn about these foreign people. The government starts building plans to stop the corruption and establishes "scouts" that will tell the Central Government about the newest "true" information all through the empire. Sardinia: The modernization is going well. Sardinian weaponry, manufactured by its own factories, are now on par with other European weapons. It has great-quality artillery, and its cavalry has been upgraded. There is now 65,000 men in the army divided into infantry and cavalry. with 2,000 artillery pieces of all kinds. Logistics has also been improved while the navy is starting to get trained and modernized., nothing like the Brits, but still efficient and organized. A small air force of balloons is starting to be constructed. Mobilization is called up.
 * Morocco: Since I also have a colony in Madagascar, how about I get the southern side and you get the northern?

1782
Great Britain (GB)- Industrialization commences. The process of attempting to industrialize all of Britain begins, starting with the agricultural and textile businesses. The government begins to give tax breaks to industrialized companies. Investors are clamoring for new markets, and, as a response, Prime Minister William Petty Fitz-Maurice unveils a plan to build up the Royal Navy and gain access to new foreign ports.

Morocco: The nation expands further into Western Sahara, and the Madagascar colony expands. The navy begins blockading mainland Portugal, demanding that they give Brazil sovreignty, and sends another squadron layden with soldiers taken from the fortified Ottoman-Morrocan border. Large glass factories are built, utilizing massive furnaces. As archeology and historians begin to uncover more things, and the government promotes nationalism the local religion begins to resurface in small villages. A trade offer is sent to England and china.

Sardinia: The economy is booming and the state's modernization process is going faster than expected. A lot of jobs and industries are being created and shops are being made, giving taxes to the government. The army, navy, artillery, and are now modern equipped, competently led, and well-trained and disciplined. The Navy controls a portion of the Medditeranean, the Artillery is modernized, and the Army is led by young and competent officers.

'''Airforce? What are you smoking? Even if you had one there is no way it would be the most powerful in Europe.'''

'''Sorry. I'll remove it, but largest doesn't mean best. Airships? '''

Hot air balloons won't even be around for another decade.

Brazil: The Moroccan officers reach Rio and start training the Militia Emergency Corps, created by the Rio Conference. The declaration of Independence is signed and sent to Lisbon to be recognized by the Portuguese autorities. The supporters of independence are trying to spread the word over the cities, while most of the nobility is refusing to accept independence since almost all the slaves are being freed, and so most of the plantations were looted and a lot of gold were given to the new goverment. Planing to keep the nation united after the independence, the Rio Conference decided to make Brazil a constitutional monarchy, searching for suitable monarchs across Europe. Merchant ships were assumed by the goverment, which put some cannons to make a navy against the Portuguese. Spain: Seeing the events in Brazil it offers to aid if they give the territories of northern and eastern Amazonia to Spain, the colony on Vancouver island expands and sailors from Nueva Granada reach The Hawaiian islands claiming it for Spain; colonies expand
 * Morocco D: Your're not looking for any in Northwest Africa? :(
 * Scroll up and read Morocoo's proposal to Brazil
 * Morocco: If you intervene I call dibbs on Mozambique.
 * morroco is like belgium for portugal, spain is more strong and capable of aiding the brazilians
 * If you're going to insult me could you at least spell correctly and capitalize?
 * Sorry, but its a fact, Portugal Technology is currently more than enough to crush Morroco's army
 * Lol, nope. It's only 1782, so there isn't to much of a gap OTL, and Morocco has been modernizing these past few years, and you're still not using correct grammer and capitilization.
 * Portugal can and Could have Crushed morroco, it just didn't had a reason to take desert territory when it had great plantation in Brazil and a Slavery powered empire
 * Not only are you not capitalizing nation names, but you are capitalizing random words. I also disagree with your statement, though I admit in a war Portugal would win I don't think it would be by a large margin.
 * it would be, atleast, enough to occupy Morroco for a few years or decades
 * For the love of Satan: capitalize. Also, atleast is two words, and Morocco has one "r" and two "c"s
