Alliances
Ask the Danish and/or the others for help. Hell, Russia could back you up for thepromise of keeping any lands it gains if the war does spark, although all lands would be in Europe. --DaBigUn 04:30, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Weird Al
I am also a fan of Weird Al, however, my research places him around Southern California, so most likely he is dead in the 1983DD world. That is unless you have proof that he was away from a target area in 1983. Mitro 04:03, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Nothing personal, but the TL is a dystopia. Try researching to find out if he was somewhere else when DD happened.  Mitro 13:05, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Virginia
I just got back from a wedding this weekend, so I'll probably look at the chages on Monday. Mitro 21:41, September 6, 2009 (UTC)
 * I reviewed your changes and took the liberty to make some changes/additions of my own. Obviously you have the right to disagree, but I hope you consider them at least.
 * First, I shrunk the size of the state. Considering the radiation likely to effect the region, along with social instability, the entire area needs to be shrunk to the most rural parts of the area if any state hopes to survive.
 * Second, I replaced Myers with MG Thompson, the historical commander of the 101st airborne at the time of Doomsday. To go along with the new size of Virginia I had him relocate the 101st to West Virginia and after taking Charleston, using it as a base for further conquest.
 * Third, I dropped references to Fort Knox. Honestly I don't think the fort would be much use to Thompson.  Trade with Superior would be a trickle at best and without a working port he would not be able to trade with the outside world.  He may secure the fort and take the gold for later use, but in the long run it is very unimportant for the survival of the state.
 * I made some other changes as well and added some ideas of my own. If you find these changes satisfactory I can see what I can do about getting this graduated.  Mitro 21:20, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

Maybe, but then again maybe not. People with the skills you list are already in short supply in OTL, and there won't be that many just randomly wandering around 2 decades after Doomsday. Many would probably have already establshed themselves in smaller survivor communities, raised families, maybe even reached positions of power or influence themselves because of their knowledge. They would be teachers as well as practicioners of their expertise. Why would they give that up to move to a military dictatorship? Granted its possible the place they live now is not much better, or even worse, but once a place is home its hard to leave. Also why is Norfolk intact? The largest naval base in the world is located there and NATO's Supreme Allied Commander Atlantic is there. I feel it would have been hit by a Soviet nuke and it is marked on the Doomsday report as being hit. Plus it is still some distance from Virginia as it is. The Virginians would have to secure and rebuild the instrature in most of Virginia before they could get to the nuked city and then they would have to rebuild the port facilities that have been destroyed by the nuclear bomb. That is going to take years in not decades. It would make more sense to go to a smaller Virginian port. Mitro 17:51, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

Hey I am from WV (or in Doomsday, Virginia). I assumed Wheeling would be a state. So here is a American Senater from WV named Robert Byrd and I want to know if I can add him into the story.

War in Canada
I honestly don’t think Virginia will be involved in the upcoming war in Canada. Though closer then New Britain, they are still relatively far that supply and transporting any soldiers there would be a logistical nightmare (especially since it would have to be done on land). The cost would also be too much for the Virginia economy to bear. Also much like New Britain they have nothing to gain from going to war. Virginia likely has little to no contact with either Saguenay or Canada so declaring war or not would effect little of their relationship with either party. They would gain no territory from this or any other benefit if they were on the side that won. Mitro 18:57, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

Niverville
To answer your question, I really don't know. I'm not an expert on nuclear weaponry, perhaps you should ask someone else. However, as only one nuke hit Winnipeg, I think you have a pretty good chance. --DarthEinstein 22:51, September 17, 2009 (UTC)

Neues Deutschland
Just some example sentences to show the difference between "neues Deutschland" and "Neudeutschland":

Oskar Lafontaine versprach dem Menschen ein neues Deutschland.

Oskar Lafontaine promised the people a new Germany.

Neues Deutschland therefore refers to a revitalised, improved Germany. Not so much a new country in its own right. An ideal name therefore to be the name of a newspaper, or to use for hollow election promises.

Die Siedler gründeten Neudeutschland.

The settlers founded New Germany.

And this the kind of New Germany you were referring to, a new country in its own right. I guess the only way to distinguish between the two is the capitalisation of the N in "New". Please keep in mind that these translator machines are only good for passive reading, and even then they can twist the very meaning of a text. --Karsten&#160;vK (talk) 12:38, November 5, 2009 (UTC)

Cave City
You and GOPZACK have my blessing to use Cave City in regards to your respective countries. --BrianD 19:03, November 8, 2009 (UTC)

Future of Cave City
I want all of old Kentucky, parts of old Missouri, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio and Arkansas. You can do what you will with Tennessee, West Virginia, Virginia and parts of Ohio, North Carolina. I say we split old Fort Campbell 50/50. I'll take the parts in Kentucky you can have the Tennessee part. I also think our two nations should forge closer diplomatic connections. --GOPZACK 01:55, November 12, 2009 (UTC)

If you would like a road through Kentucky so you can get to Fort Campbell The Commonwealth of Kentucky would be interested in giving you such a road. I apologize if I came across as a bully that was not my intention. I want nothing but good strong relations between our two nations I just want some set boundaries for our respective nations--GOPZACK 04:12, November 12, 2009 (UTC)

If you would like to visit the Patton Museum, if by Patton Museum you mean an abandoned building with all the resources stripped from it your more then welcome to visit anytime. As for a capital I'm thinking Lexington and whoever the mayor is of Lexington would probably do. Now the area in white represent areas under Kentucky Control The areas in the yellow box are territory Kentucky claims. We also reserve the right to expand into Indiana, Illinois and Missouri as we see fit. Thus giving you part of Kentucky and ALL of Tennessee --GOPZACK 16:03, November 12, 2009 (UTC)

Ah I see, perhaps we would give you a copy of the blueprints for something in return? Like I said we are interested in forging closer relations --GOPZACK 16:26, November 12, 2009 (UTC)

The Deal
As for what I would like I want two things. #1 I would like all of Kentucky not in a shaded color and #2 an alliance between our two nations. --GOPZACK 20:29, November 12, 2009 (UTC)

I believe such an arrangement can be made for a road. Now seeing as we both want an alliance between our two nations would you be willing to spilt old Fort Campbell 50/50 then we could both invest in it's renewal saving you money. Our two nations could run joint exercises and such does that interest you? --GOPZACK 04:14, November 13, 2009 (UTC)

Very good sir I think we should finalize some type of treaty very soon--GOPZACK 17:43, November 13, 2009 (UTC)

I just saw your idea for a "Southern Compact" or the "Dixie Accord" that could be the name of such a treaty--GOPZACK 17:45, November 13, 2009 (UTC)

Portland, Tennessee
I agree, I say we make joint statement announcing our support for them. My expedition teams should be in the area very soon. --GOPZACK 18:00, November 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yank, please see comments on southern United States/Portland/"Southern Pact/Dixie Accord" under General Discussion on the 1983:DD talk page. There are a ton of ideas here that I think are worth exploring.--BrianD 19:12, November 13, 2009 (UTC)

Formal Boarder
Just to confirm you only claim the parts of Kentucky that were colored on that map correct? If so lets make that the formal boarder --GOPZACK 18:02, November 14, 2009 (UTC)

Perhaps OTL Congressman Hal Rogers (R) could be the governor. As for the capital Pikeville could work, the mayor of Pikeville could be the governor as well. --GOPZACK 20:44, November 14, 2009 (UTC)

Alright I've made a formal map of our two nations based off of the info you've provided. I'm unsure what territory you control in North Carolina and Tennessee so if you could let me know that would be great and I'll add it in. --GOPZACK 18:40, November 15, 2009 (UTC)

I've added in your North Carolina Claims and my proposed plan to divide the former state of Ohio --GOPZACK 00:51, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

I can do that, I also recommend if you've got any territorial gains in mind you do them soon before the LON claims them or protects them --GOPZACK 02:14, November 16, 2009 (UTC)

Yes we are. don't worry about all that other crap :) --GOPZACK 16:56, November 18, 2009 (UTC)

Yank, that blog post was really not the best way to handle the situation, that is why I deleted it. Now I believe your right and that Mr. X overreacted a little by your comment, but he said on my talk page he is not looking for an argument. I would suggest dropping it because making this bigger then it really is a waste of time. Mitro 02:56, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

I think thats a great idea but I think Bunning would use this estate in Virginian Kentucky as a vacation residence while keeping his main residence in Kentucky. Also Bunning may be leaving the Presidency in January of 2011 his public life is by no means over. I may use him as a goodwill ambassador or something. --GOPZACK 19:54, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

I like the idea but before I sign onto this I would like to know the fully plan for this alliance. Like the members, goals ect ect... --GOPZACK 22:05, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

I can support this so long as the member states have their sovereignty protected and have the right to leave the alliance at anytime without fear of being reprimanded. --GOPZACK 19:52, February 21, 2010 (UTC)

Unstable Earth
You can go ahead and join. Welcome to Unstable Earth! Dr. 8-Bit 23:46, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

Unstable Earth is mostly ASB, but it has a specific kind of ASB: things randomly teleporting through time and space. Note "randomly" - time travel is uncontrollable to those who live *there*. It also will soon have some regular PODs once Mr.Xeight edits some stuff. A Nazi Antarctica could work, though they almost certainly aren't time-traveling - also, please check my and Mr.Xeight's talk pages, as I just brought up the concept of Nazis. So far it's looking like they worship mushrooms (just like all of the west) and hate Christians instead of Jews. Dr. 8-Bit 01:32, March 2, 2010 (UTC)

Ah, that makes more sense. Sure, just so long as they don't affect the rest of the world too much. Dr. 8-Bit 01:52, March 2, 2010 (UTC)

Vietnam
Wow, that's strange. I was also planning on doing an article on Vietnam. Except, I planned on going the oposit direction with the communists surviving and formin a loose union with Laos and Cambodia, similar to ATL SAC or the Nordic Union. I had an early draft of the story, but maybe it would be more interesting to see a democratic, capitalist Vietnam emerge. In my opinion, Hanoi wouldn't be nuked, it wasn't that important. But regardles if it was or wasn't, you could say that the government fell because of the Chinese flocking into Vietnam. Oh, and could you perhaps tell me if you would like to do any other countries in Indochina? Because I had a few plans for other nations.Vladivostok 05:54, February 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * The fact that Vietnam is not a heavy hitter doesn't matter. They are still a Soviet ally and like the Warsaw Pact nations, Afghanistan, North Korea and others, they will likely be targeted on Doomsday.  Mitro 14:12, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

WV Targets
I had my doubts about the hotel, but the steel mills could be a likely target. The point of the Nike missiles were to protect against Soviet bombers carrying nuclear weapons. Yes the ICBM made them obsolete, thus the Soviets would just send an ICMB against the steel mills in WV. I used Nike missile site as an example to show how the steel mills of south Chicago were important targets. I don't understand why you think the introduction of the ICBM would make them a non-target.

Also there is a big difference between a product that is made and a natural resource. It would be impossible to destroy a natural resource like coal, but it is possible to destroy the factories that make steal. It is these factories that made the US a world power and I doubt the Soviets would leave such useful resources to whatever is left of the US. That is why many of the large cities would be destoryed, not because of their populations but what they provide to the United States government and military. Mitro 21:09, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

Virginia/Portland contingent thrown out of Jackson at gunpoint
How shall the Dixie Alliance respond to this? --GOPZACK 05:05, February 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * I expect that Virginia won't take this lightly. For all of the perceptions of Virginia floating out there, Jackson is ten times crazier (without the tanks and 20th century weapons). This isn't anywhere on the wiki, yet, but Jackson is run by a bunch of survivalists and crazed Army vets who managed to get order in the region, then shut the place down (they kicked out Portland reps sometime in the 1990s - I do think there's some reference to that ont he Portland page or the Tennessee page). As I said, the nutjobs don't have tanks, but that didn't keep them from trying to build their own...so there's an opportunity for one of you guys to draw up a scenario with the Thompson tank versus the Jackson "tank". Use your own imagination as to what that thing looks like :) BrianD 05:23, February 27, 2010 (UTC)

A Thought
There is a place called the Raven Rock Mountain Complex in southern Pennsylvania just south of Gettysburg which was meant to serve as a "underground Pentagon in the event of a nuclear war. By the time of Doomsday this facility no longer held the same importance that it did in the 1950's and 60's. From what I know Virginia controls the Maryland panhandle correct? If so this place could still exist and is worth exploring. Perhaps with a bit of restoration it could serve as the HQ for the Dixie Alliance. --GOPZACK 04:27, March 8, 2010 (UTC)

Heres another possible location, the National Audio-Visual Conservation Center. Which I believe is in Virginian territory.--GOPZACK 21:25, March 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * Why not use The Greenbrier Hotel? It has the benefit of being in the core territory of the member, plus it likely still has some of the equipment that would have been used for communications, etc. in case of nuclear war. Its also probably in pretty good shape compared to anything outside DA member territory. Furthermore we know it survived Doomsday. Mitro 22:16, March 8, 2010 (UTC)

So long as Yank doesn't take issue I'm fine with that. --GOPZACK 22:24, March 8, 2010 (UTC)

PUSA
Yank most of what you have said has been said before (in one form or another) by myself and others, but this "endless stream of naive fools" you mention is something that I think only you noticed. No offense man but from my POV what happened on Talk:Provisional United States (1983: Doomsday) was that a new user made a suggestion and you jumped down his throat. Consider our first interaction. Consider how you felt when I orginally nominated the first version of Virginia for deletion (then known as the Washigton Empire) instead of talking with you first. It was a mistake on my part and I apoligized, but now you have gone and made the same mistake I made. Also would you have reacted the same way if that same new user did not mention Virginia? Just some food for thought. Mitro 19:27, March 8, 2010 (UTC)

It would be too costly to rebuild steel mills that were destroyed during a nuclear war. It would make more sense just to build some new ones somewhere else. Mitro 03:14, March 25, 2010 (UTC)

Dixie Alliance
Remember the Dixie Alliance is a joint venture between you & me, any offers of military assistance or any other type of involvement regarding the Dixie Alliance needs to be run by me.

New Richmond
I think they would never move to a "New Richmond." Remember that the Virginian Republic is centered on West Virginia, not Virginia. This is the same West Virginia that seceded from the state of Virginia to stay with the union during the Civil War. They really are not that tied to Virginia history after that point and I really doubt they would be trying to make themselves look more like the Old Dominion. The current capitol of the VR is likely to be their capitol for a long time. Mitro 18:17, April 15, 2010 (UTC)

Fargo
Hey, Yank. After seeming to have come to an agreement on Fargo, you changed the text back to stating that Fargo "voted to become part of Assiniboia." I thought I had made myself clear, Fargo is an important part of North Dakota - its biggest city and uneffected by the bombing of the air bases and silos in the northern part of the state. You are basing Assiniboia on an old map made by the first claimants of the land, and not on any activity that would be likely to re-establish those exact boundaries.

I am proposing that a line, drawn across the north boundaries of McLean, Sheridan, Wells and Eddy counties (North 47° 50') would be a good boundary. The lower halves of Nelson and Grand Forks counties would be south of that line, and could either go with North Dakota or Assinobia. I figure that land has mostly been abandoned anyway, but some of the villages in the latter two counties might want to keep the whole counties under local control.

When Zack asked me to help in the Dakotas, I assume that a viable remnant remains east of the Missouri -- of both states. Unless there is a very good reason, I don't think we should relinquish Fargo to Assiniboia. SouthWriter 17:23, May 7, 2010 (UTC)

Since you called me a Yankee bitch, I might as well call you a royalist bastard, kissing the Queen of fuckin England's hand, and saying "Oh My Majesty, you are the supreme ruler, oh god lord...............god god god, you have all the prestige and honor." --Catherine 19:04, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

How dare you say something about my country! For all I know, the queen heavily influences the government of England, and she says "The Prime ministers runs the government in my name" while the bastards go up and ask her "advice", in which she says "I want you to sign that treaty" or "I won't let you pass that law". --Catherine 19:15, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

I am not Ignorant, Fool!
For your information, I have read about the histories and government of Great Britain, both in school and at home, for I love history. Canadian history I am bored in. Anyways, Americans are not ignorant, and you do realise that the United States can bomb Canada and Britain to kingdom-come and back again. So can Russia. We actually have the strongest military AND economy on the planet, while you depend on American exports more then anything else. And we are self-sufficent in natural resources, but we try to fully exploit them. So bastard, Canada could one day be annexed by America, and one day you will be able to elect a President, just like us! Your Prime Minister is not directly elected by you, he is appointed by the Queen (or in her absence, the Queen's Governor-General), according to which party has the most seats in Parilament. He basically has no offical status, and is only a de facto (in opinion of the people and government) office, while de jure Prime Minister's position doesn't even exist! So there is a stupid American for you, you little foolish Canadian! --Catherine 19:35, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

He surely is a blemish to the Canadian image...Smallpox 22:45, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Why the Hell do we keep fighting?
I wonder why we keep arguing over things. I am tired and irritated of it, but every time I apologize, I then do something to provoke it again. Perhaps we just not contact each-other. Or we should just sign a deal over these manners. All of this stuff makes no fuckin sense. --Catherine 21:24, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Well alright then. We might as well have some distance between us. --Catherine 21:42, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Russia and Prussia
I know it seems a little much, but if the borders are agreed upon, then the Tsar of Russia (ME!!) well be OK with that. After all I dont wish to make enemies of new friends. Also if anyone else is in the alliance that was not previously mentioned in my post where I set the boarders then do tell me.--DaBigUn 03:39, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

if a war would to happen, would Prussia declare neutrality, as they have more to loose then France and are far enough away to not worry about any of their colony being attacked, but they do boarder Russia (or at least and allie of the motherland) back in Europe. This is not meant to be a threat, just an assessment.--DaBigUn 15:47, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

Deletion?
Read the introduction, Yank! This time line specifically leaves out the "cross" or any other intervention of the Creator. The timeline MUST advance with NO interference from any supernatural source whatsoever. The fact that I require that the timeline has to be within the perimeters of the Biblical record does not make it a "violation" of the No Cross No Crown "rule."

EVERYTHING in this time line proceeds on an assumption that man is ON HIS OWN. I am only starting from the premise that the record in Genesis 1 and 2 is true. That should not be a "crime" in this forum.

If I must, I can begin my own wiki. But I don't won't to have to go there. Althistory.com is a fine place to work. What say the rest of you folk? SouthWriter 17:21, June 8, 2010 (UTC)

Croatia
Hey Yank, I'd like for you to check out the changes I made to Croatia. I somehow feel that a bloody ending to Yugoslavia would be much more plausible than a peaceful one. Make no mistake that the OTL Yugoslav war was waged to in the name of some ideal of a joint state of South Slavic nations, it was simply a Serbian attempt at creating a "Greater Serbia". Thus, it would have most likely happened in this TL as well.--Vladivostok 09:54, June 9, 2010 (UTC)

Virginia (1983DD)
Actually dude, the fiberglass-stocked M-14A2's that the Armory in Winchester were producing beats the AK family in several respects:

Accuracy: Have YOU ever fired off an AK? The bullet is designed for punching through unarmored flesh at less than 200 yards. After 300, the round stops in it's revolutions and typically goes flying off to the right.

With an M-14, I can put in a group of 5 at 300 yards in 8 inches square in ten seconds. And I'm only 14!

Firepower: If you are of the spray-and-pray denomination, then I can't argue with that. The AK would literally blow any assault rifle away at under 50 yards. But when you consider the sheer destructive capabilities of the 7.62x51/.308 Winchester, it is, IMO, the best round ever designed for an assault/battle rifle.

Ease of use: In 1983, there was only 7 establishments in the US with the correct tooling to produce AK's. 5 were scattered out west, one was in New York, and the other was in Springfield, Illinois. How would Virginia make them? And, if Virginia is as jingoistic as you described, then why would they use a Communist weapon? I know that they just want the best for their troops, but still!

And on the M-16, I agree. The A4 version is actually not that bad, but the rest......no comment.

BoredMatt 13:22, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

Yes the FAL is great, (the only reason why the US didn't adopt it is because FN wouldn't release the tooling for it, they finally liscenced it in 1990). I have no problems with the AK's reliability, but there is no way that Virginia can suddenly start producing them out of nowhere (the closest area where the plans would have been kept un-nuked would have been a place in Texas) and the manpower and time needed to either

A: Retool the armory in Winchester from producing the excellent M-14 (as well as the ammo, where are you going to find a deal like that?) to the AK, while not having the blueprints for it.

B: Start a factory from scratch without the plans for the tooling, while ignoring the perfectly good factory in Winchester.

I just don't see why someone as intelligent as your Colonel completely ignoring a ready-made factory producing a great gun (and the ammo) that was untouched by DD and redesigning the AK from some 20-year-old technical report by the NSA, setting up a completely new factory for it, and training the troops on it, when nobody under his command has any experience actually using the gun. BoredMatt 14:17, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

Winchester, VA, in the northern Shanendoah. As I said before, it was closed down in either 87 or 88.BoredMatt 14:48, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

And an AK looks more anachronistic than an M-14? And why the hell would Virginian troops wear civil war uniforms? WTF? We've got a lot of re-enactors here, but there is no practical reason why they would wear them. If they're centered around the 101st/West VA, wouldn't you think they would at least wear fatigues or hunting clothes? You didn't really explain the AK thing, either. BoredMatt 15:09, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

Plus, this being f***ing Virgina, why the hell would you have them wear Union uniforms? They would be shot on site in most places!

Also, if, hypothetically, Virginia suddenly started producing AKs out of nowhere, then why couldn't they string together some camo fatigues? No matter how much the uniforms give the soldiers a history lesson, (namely, how itchy and hot the soldiers were, Virginia being so fucking humid right now that right now if I go outside it feels like I'm swimming through the air), dark blue in the forests of Virginia doesn't exactly work out too well. I've tried it when I go paint-balling, and.......it doesn't work.

If YOU knew your history (or basic geography), you would realize that Virginia does not produce cotton, they produce tobacco (44% of the entire nation's!!). Also, W. VA would probably only have 1/3 of Virginia's population (you've got a good bit of Virginia proper, plus Tennessee), plus, again, how exactly would wearing civil-war era clothing be in any way beneficial to the military.

And on an alternative fabric, that's fine, but you can't just make up things to reinforce your argument. BoredMatt 15:49, June 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * Actually, Matt, he can! But then, his is more fictional than some in TTL. --SouthWriter 17:15, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

Ok, then, answer me this: We're talking about West Virginia here, so there is bound to be countless militias with various camo clothing. Plus, West VA is deer hunting central for the entire east coast, it would make sense for the Republic to just say, "We need uniforms, could you give us your hunting gear?", as opposed to the Republic saying, "We need uniforms, let's set up a factory to produce civil war fatigues that haven't been improved on in 120 years, that hold no potential benefits for us other than being relatively cheap to produce, using an entirely new material that would have to have it's own factory to produce it." And, of course, there is the small matter of getting the material needed, and to process it. BoredMatt 16:21, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

Why not have fatigues like this:


 * You know, Yank, this young man has you going around in circles! It is a bit hard to read the conversation, looking between user talk pages and all, but I get the gist of the arguments being made. The weapon of choice is going to be the one readily available, especially with a young economy like that of the Virginian Republic. Since he seems to be a native Virginian, I would go with his suggestions if I were you. The general nature of the of the article need not change, but it would be a lot more realistic if we listened to some learned advice.

Do you think I coul work with you on this? I know we were disagreeing on a lot of the military stuff, but I do know a whole lot about the area, and I could help you with that. BoredMatt 00:34, June 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Perhaps, if the regime had wanted to process plant life for fiber, the abundant crops of tobacco, having lost most of their market, could be used in some way. If not, perhaps this would necessitate the opening of trade with the Piedmont Republic, at the time still a major textile producer with the added bonus of some cotton fields to the south of its "official" borders. That would in turn foster exploration by the Piemontan government to acquire more of this resource. --SouthWriter 17:15, June 23, 2010 (UTC)

Ok, that's fine. But still, the way you make the virginians look (that is, sort of a practical, spartan democracy), then why would they keep the uniforms? If they are that practical and militaristic, then wouldn't they choose substance over style? BoredMatt 01:04, June 25, 2010 (UTC)

Yugoslavia in general
Hey Yank, I'd really like to hear your plans for this region, and perhaps if I could write about the rest of the region. Right now, I'm in the dark regarding your ideas and/or wether you had any questions about the one's you are currently writing. Remember, If you have any questions about the region, don't hesitate to ask.--Vladivostok 06:52, June 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, I somehow feel Slovenia wouldn't be to thrilled about that. Believe me, they are better of being a close ally of the Alpine Confederation. Serbia in a union with Montenegro, that I totally agree with you. Perhaps there would be a partition of Kosovo between the various ethnic groups? Just thinking out loud. Oh, and in an ideal world, some form of Bosnia would be free.


 * As for myself, I'd probably be doing what I'm doing now. Trying desperately to get into university and major in English and Russian studies. Oh, and on a side note, do you realize we are currently two of the oldest users, alongside Oer perhaps, that are active on DD83 at the moment?--Vladivostok 10:39, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

I feel like an interloper here, but this "conversation" showed up on my watch list (Yank's work is crucial to the time line!). Anyway, I assume Vlad means that you two have been writing for longer than most on this time line. If "old" was according to "age" I probably have you all beat. As for you in TTL, Vlad, why don't you insert yourself in the story line, or at least put yourself on the "Honorary Citizens" page. --SouthWriter 13:17, June 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * Exactly what I was thinking. So, we are agreed,the current Yugoslavia page will reflect the changes after we create and graduate the various articles, while the Serbia article would naturally have to change its name into Serbia and Montenegro. The only catch is that I'll have to come up with an idea regarding Venice, as it controls Istria, a peninsula which is a part of Croatia. Now, I suppose I could leave that to instability and the native Italians living their, I'll flesh that part out in the post-Yugoslavian war part of the history. So, how do we go about this? I'll do Croatia and Slovenia, you do Serbia and Montenegro and Macedonia and we end Bosnia together?
 * And yes, Albania is a mystery. There was some talk regarding the countries fate, but nothing concrete. I suggest we nuke Tirana and be gone with it, it was a Chinese ally after all, and if Vienna and Belgrade would be hit, why not Tirana as well?--Vladivostok 11:09, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Winter Guard
I've decided to stick with the current name for the Russian team, the Winter Guard, no point in changing a perfectly good name. Here are the descriptions:

Winter Guard
The Winter Guard is an amalgamation of past Soviet superheroes groups. It was organized after the events that occured on Doomsday. It is a continuation of the Soviet Super-Soldiers team.
 * Winter Soldier:Having been sent to Siberia during the events of Doomsday, Alexi Shostakov, the then current Red Guardian was caught in the nuclear blast over Novosibirsk. Clinging to life, he survived the events of Doomsday, loosing his arm and earning a distinctive scar on his face in the process. He, alongside Mikhail Ursus, was the only member of the former team to have survived and was the driving force to its renewal. Having been given an advanced prosthetic arm, he leads the team, coordinating their service from Krasnoyarsk, rarely venturing in the field himself.
 * Red Guard: Anton Shostakov, the son of the Winter Guard, was the perfect candidate for the next Red Guardian. From birth, Anton was trained in the newly reestablished Red Room, being one of its finest graduates. He has also received extensive military training from his father. He is the public face of the team, being a symbol of the USSR's steady renewal.
 * Ursa Major: Mikhail Ursus was one of the original members of the Soviet Super-Soldier team and after receiving an invitation to join the new team, he readily accepted. Possessing the strength and the likeness of a bear when transformed, he is truly a force to be reckoned with. He is also a mutant rights activist in Siberia. Through his activism, the mutant community in Siberia has slowly started to become a vocal supporter of the government that once tried to enslave them.
 * Darkstar II:As the former Darkstar, Laynia Petrovna, was killed during Doomsday. Reena Stancioff, one of the best female recruits of the Siberian army, was choosen to possess the darkstar gem, replicating the powers of the original Darkstar. Although frightened by its awesome power, Reena has slowly come to terms with her newfound powers, alleviating crisis after crisis.
 * Radioactive Man: Having witnessed the awesome power of the atom at a very young age, Chen Lu, a Manchurian refugee, decided to dedicate his life to curing radation sickness, as well as being an adamant advocate of arms reduction. One day, after assuming he had reached a breakthrough in his work, an accident in his research caused the doctor to radiate extreme amounts of radiation, as well as the ability to absorb and manipulate high levels of radiation for a number of purposes and effects. Thinking the government would be able to ultimately help him control his powers, Lu readily joined the Winter Guard.
 * The Killer:Vladimir Granitsky, whose only codename is "The Killer", exhibited his unique abilities at a very early age. At the age of five, he managed to kill an eagle in mid-flight, simply by witnessing a military sharpshooter do the same. After being sent to the military to test his abilities, it was revealed that Vladimir possessed photographic reflexes, being able to copy any humanly possible feat, just by witnessing it. From then on, having trained and surpassed the scores of the original Black Widow in the Red Room, as well as having received its version of the Super-Soldier serum, Vladimir has been a part of the Winter Guard since 2006, mostly going on black-ops assignments, together with the second Black Widow.
 * Black Widow II:Yelena Chang, having been born to a Russian general and Chinese scientist, was part of the Red Room since a very early age. Having received the same training as her peers, Vladimir and Anton, she has been given the moniker of Black Widow, as she was able to equal the scores of Natasha Romanov, the original Black Widow. Mostly assigned to black-ops missions together with The Killer.

So, what do you think?--Vladivostok 15:47, June 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Glad you like it. And if I may be so bold and ask, could I by any chance flesh out the story of the various already existing characters of Viriginian Comics? Maybe right up something about the Multiverse. And yes, I'm a huge Marvel fanboy. And I have an excellent idea about who Captain Canada should be from the regular continuity.--Vladivostok 17:27, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Virginian Comics
Ok then, I'll start work on fleshing out the current characters tomorrow, perhaps even universes. Since we'll probably stick with the main universe, one thought comes to mind. What about DC characters? Did you want them to be in their own universe, or is it something that exists together now?--Vladivostok 19:20, June 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Now that's awesome. Guess I'll have to read up on my DC. It would be really interesting to find out where the "Man of Steel" was during Doomsday, probably not on Earth.(sorry, just thinking out loud, the nerd is strong in me) Oh, and the list of dead superheroes would need to be stagering.--Vladivostok 19:48, June 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well then I hope that Van Helsing and Blade are dead, because otherwise, Dracula is dead meat. Would that then make Blade the villain? Anyway, I'd just like to make things clear on who lived and who died. Now, an exact list is impossible, but I would assume that there would be no X-Men (a nuke would probably hit Xavier's school directly), Batman killed off or otherwise old by the time the comics started, Tony Stark, Spider-Man, I mean, these would all be safe bets, if it was the real world. Of course, we could make it up as we go along, but this would make things nice and neat.--Vladivostok 20:12, June 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * But you didn't think of a number of things. Time travel, cloning, or more simply put, a descendant of Van Helsing wouldn't be out of order. Oh, I didn't tell you my idea for Captain Canada. Only the most awesome Canadian in all of Marvel comics: Wolverine of course! Now that would be kick ass.--Vladivostok 20:30, June 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, adamantium would play a part in it. But most likely the healing factor would play the biggest part in the whole process. At least his brain wouldn't have been fried by the nuke. Or he simply wouldn't have been in Westchester during Doomsday. That would be the most easiest explanation. On a side note, the radiation would make the Hulk virtually unstoppable. Maybe he would be Maestro by now, now that would be great.--Vladivostok 20:52, June 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Of course, he is a strong possibility. But the problem is Superman, or anyone who comes close to his power. The man is literaly able to go back in time by himself. This sort of world shattering thing would undoubtably make him do such a thing. He needs to be somewhere out of the picture. We could send him to the Marvel-based Negative Zone, or perhaps that prison Zod was in, the name eludes me at the moment. There is a really huge list of survivors to choose from, really. It all depends on our imagination. But we should agree on not making it too crowded. Maybe guilt-ridden Magneto decides to help humanity survive? And perhaps an ANZC based Super-Soldier program creates their version of a team. Perhaps led by Green Lantern?--Vladivostok 21:53, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

I think DC comics are clearly your field of expertice, but you have to admit Superman is sometimes capable of doing extraordinary things, while at other times, he proves incapable of doins said feats. But he would definately have to be off world, at least for the duration of Doomsday. As for Magneto, well, he is the Master of Magnetism, isn't he? he could have deflected a missile coming his way. At least in theory. I'm not quite sure when his asteroid came into play, did the comic book writers create it before Doomsday? If so, he could have been there. Or he could have been in the Savage Lands or Genosha for that matter. Oh yeah, Black Panthe, definitely a survivor, as well as Wakanda.--Vladivostok 22:11, June 24, 2010 (UTC) Naturally they would be Australian, I was thinking of simply creating the names and people from scratch, although I'd maybe use one of the already existing Green Lanterns who would most likely survive and thus fit into the story. I'll think of a name for a Virginian "Captain America", but you know how hard it is for the Super-Soldier serum to work as intended. The Russian one was however a safer bet. Anyhow, it could be something simple, like the Patriot, or something to do with well known Virginian symbols. Or the person could be strictly human and then raised to be the perfect specimen, like the MVP character in newer stories. Or he can be dark and gritty, like a mix between Batman and the Punisher. But there is also one other issue. What Superman would we use? The one before Doomsday was the strongest one, he was the Silver Age one. Do we reduce his powers or keep them as such. Personally, I'd like to see him retire, work on a farm in the Australian Outback.--Vladivostok 16:53, June 25, 2010 (UTC)

I like the Batman thing, as I already said. Now, Tony Stark's child could have been born in Australia, why not? Now, would he know from the beginning he was his son? Because there wouldn't be a whole lot of people around to tell him post-DD. And as far as the story goes, you've probably seen that I've mentioned some past events. I was thinking of mentioning them in some short summary of the story, but I'd like to know if you agree with what has been written. Oh, and how do you feel of writing what comics are currently being published: Yay or Nay?--Vladivostok 17:48, June 27, 2010 (UTC)

Sure, that could happen. Do you perhaps know if by 1983 the whole story arc of him quiting alcohol happened? If not, it would be a nice touch to make him a sort of deadbeat dad, while his son learned of his greatness only after he died.--Vladivostok 18:29, June 27, 2010 (UTC)

Napoleon's World
Mussolini must have been born way before 1922, if I'm not mistaken?KingSweden 20:57, June 25, 2010 (UTC)

I like your thinking. Right in the spirit of the Alternate Destinies page. KingSweden 22:00, June 25, 2010 (UTC)

Oh and just to make sure that what you write stays canon, southern Italy would be independent as the Papal States during the lifetime of Mussolini, but northern Italy is part of the French Empire. Also, Kim Il-sung is killed in 1945 during the Korean Civil War. Have a look here: Korea (Napoleon's World). Just a heads up. KingSweden 22:06, June 25, 2010 (UTC)

I love what you've done with Mussolini, Kim, Booth, and the lot of them, and especially Mark Hamill as a nice pleasant surprise, but three things: 1) careful with Churchill, he's got a place in Canon already. More details on that here: England (Napoleon's World) and The Anarchy (Napoleon's World). Second, I'd like to expand the Lincoln section personally, but put whatever you had in mind on there first. Thirdly, out of curiosity, who is Samuel Kinison? Keep up the good work, I love what you're doing, and let me know of any questions you have regarding Napoleon's World canon. Regards, KingSweden 04:27, July 7, 2010 (UTC)

I enjoy your interest in the TL. I've left my comments about Ontario (which I'm afraid breaches canon) on the page's talkpage. Sorry. KingSweden 23:45, July 8, 2010 (UTC)

Sounds great. Look forward to seeing what you come up with for that. KingSweden 00:57, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

Also, since you seem to have a knack for turning people into actors (which I love, I think it adds to the TL) I encourage you to check out and add to the Film (Napoleon's World) page - I started the article somewhat with your contributions in mind. KingSweden 01:01, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

I feel like I'm coming off the wrong way here: I love your contributions, they're great! I'm a sports fanatic, that's a big part of how so many characters wind up in the sports world - besides, it's very easy to throw together a quick sports/acting bio, while the geopolitical ramifications of politics takes longer to flesh out and consider. I'll get to work on Lincoln as soon as I can, I've been busy with work the past few days. KingSweden 02:10, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

You've been given Rollback rights, which means you can more easily revert vandals but are not a full admin. My concern has been that you've shown a tendency to escalate disagreements into fierce battles of wills.

 * South Florida's Key West, after being leveled after a non-nuclear strike due to its' proximity to Cuba, was rebuilt as an island port city and gateway to North America. It has the most access to international markets, from the Caribbean to South America, Mexico to Africa, its' citizens have the best of the best in terms of foreign goods.


 * The Naval equipment from Guantanamo Bay, the best equipped U.S. Navy base in OTL, and I'm assuming TTL too, completes the military triangle of the DA.


 * South Florida's proximity to the second and first world nations of the Post-Doomsday provides a gateway for any of those seeking passage to other nations, as well as the opportunity to take a luxurious vacation in the Caribbean for the rich.

Thoughts? Arstarpool 05:04, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

For personal reasons, I have finally decided to exclude South Florida. Thank you for your ideas, and I wish the best to Florida-Virginian relations. Arstarpool 04:35, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

Find out Larry the Cable Guy's real name, relocate him to Tacoma (in ATL, this is the city that developed in the Puget Sound as opposed to Seattle (which is an OTL Tacoma-sized port called Alki Bay)) and guns away, my friend. KingSweden 02:55, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

Virginia
Hey Yank, I pointed out some stuff that are wrong with Virginia on its talk page. A lot of these are issues that other people have talked to you about, but you have ignored. Arstarpool 02:15, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

You have made a solid point. But how did they get all of the territory they now control? They pretty much control all of Virginia except for what Delmarva controls! Arstarpool 23:41, July 19, 2010 (UTC)

So now the ultra-professional military is building yet another nation in the Deep South. Yank, I read the first revisions of "Virginia". The Washingtonian Empire? Mitro shot that down, didn't he? You just went for the second best thing then. Virginia is a choke point at the balls of the former US, so it is pretty much the most plausible form of what would have been an empire in Washington D.C. You have to understand the materials needed to make this "Mega Army".

Is it just because the 101st Airborne, an AIR FORCE DIVISION managed to create the nation that the military is the pride of the nation? And why would West Virginia/Virginia have so much Virginian national ride? Yank, I am an American. I have lived for brief to long periods of time in over 6 states and Washington D.C. I was born into a family that has been serving our military since the CIVIL WAR. The military is nothing like you portray them. They would not assemble these "militias", especially the DAMN AIRFORCE to do land-grabs. And THEY would be the ones trying to keep America alive in their hearts, not saying that it was dead.

And how about the eqippment? Tanks? Really? Do you know how many parts it takes to make tanks?

And how would they have all these other elite equippments? How would they have "one of the best equipped and trained militaries in the world"? They are/were a landlocked and isolated nation, and the materials would certainly not be coming in. Those "cars" of yours would need a lot of parts from a lot of places, as well, though I could see the Virginians scrapping old autos.

Yank, and the dictatorship you talked about, that would be a disaster. Us Americans have a burning hatred for dictatorships. Our legacy of colonial rule by those English bastard, who scrapped all of our resources to send them back to England and left us poor and starving, have left us ready to snap the neck of any president who even declared "extended emergency powers". That would not sit well with any American, especially West Virginia, a state mainly populated by "dem trigger happy Yankees".

You might not comprehend how much hardship we went through under a de facto dictatorship. You Canooks were "granted" your independence slowly and without bloodshed, while we fought for EVERYTHING we have today. Twice. Arstarpool 04:31, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

Follow-up
I was thinking of letting Walt Disney be Walt Disney in this TL as well, there are of course some parallels between the two worlds. Who exactly who is "fictional" did you have in mind? I put that line in so I could invent people (Josiah Marks, Adam Eisler, John Burwin, actors/sports figures, the entire Bonaparte dynasty and most French Imperials) on the fly. KingSweden 04:14, July 20, 2010 (UTC) Hmm. In the case of characters leading similar lives to those they did in OTL (keyword: similar, not identical) there would obviously be major differences. A good example: Mitt Romney is President between 1997-2005. In OTL, he obviously runs for Prez in 2008 and loses, but in ATL, a still-Mormon Romney who is still originally from Michigan gets involved in politics earlier and runs as a young, telegenic, Redford-esque candidate against Burwin in '96 and becomes a popular President, until scandals undo his party in his final year in office. Walt Disney could still do family animations, for example, but since this is in Napoleon's World, his studio could have taken a different turn - anti-French films, or films less reliant on "Imperial" fairytales (due to the anti-Imperial bias in the US due to the Cold War, much akin to the Red Scare) could be the norm.

Speaking of which, have any ideas on a McCarthy-esque figure for the late 1950's and early 1960's when Hoover is in office? His unpopularity would naturally help convince Hoover not to run for a second term and lead to the moderate National Party ushered in by Dick van Dyke.

Also, just a wildly unrelated thought that's been bugging me for about a week: if Jim Carrey was such a wildly popular, young and charismatic Governor in Huron, which is a MAJOR state, who would he forego the chance to be the Democratic frontrunner in 2004 (his only real competition is Jay Leno, Governor of Massachusetts, since then-Senator Springsteen was seen as a fringe liberal and couldn't keep the powerful Southern bloc in check) to go into film? Just a thought... KingSweden 05:44, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

1983: Doomsday
Yank we seem to be one of the last people on this wiki that haven't abandoned 1983: Doomsday. I was wondering if I could enlist your help in reviving it? --GOPZACK 05:16, July 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * Boo!


 * Just to let you guys know I'm still around. Yes, Zack, that young upstart Arstarpool has started up stuff elsewhere, drawing some interest in a new time line. I am still here, but I am "policing" Arstar's domain to keep it close to reality. 83DD is a lot more interesting - but was beginning to bet stale. Perhaps it was because the apparatus to "discover" the lost civilization didn't get into place until our "real time" efforts back in 2008. Some of the original assumptions have been discarded, leading to developments unheard of two years ago.


 * Also, our attempts to build scenarios around the world - of which we are not personally aware - pale in comparison to those we write about areas in which we live. The storylines become tangled due to conflicts between truth and fiction. Some editors are bent on making their creations bigger than life while others are bogged down in research to make their histories true to life.


 * Mitro seems to be the guiding hand, and without his guidance many of his lieutenants have gone astray. He will be back in about a month, and 83DD will not go away. We can do our best, in the meantime, to make sure it doesn't sink into a coma. A daily check on proposals, perhaps, and a paragraph on our favorite creation every day or two. A major section on something new once a week.


 * Just some thoughts. SouthWriter 14:16, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * The young upstart? I'm still here! I have recently spent much of my time on Wasteland Europe, but I still do a daily check of proposals, comment on talk pages, and fill in my articles on Doomsday. I'll be fully active again when Mitro returns. Arstarpool 15:20, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, hi Alex. Sorry, but you are young and by your own admission new to the "game." That makes you a "young upstart," in a nice sort of way. Your frustration with 83DD was what seemed to have launched "Wasteland Europe." In a way, "Wasteland Europe" is harder for you to manage than writing for Doomsday, since the POD is twice as far away and not as drastic. It is harder to create scenarios when all the players are still on the board during most of the game. There is a lot of "butterfly effect" at WasteEuro. SouthWriter 16:17, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

Conch Republic
I am sorry, but the Conch Republic belongs to South Florida. You can always become a caretaker for South Florida, because Zack has never made a positive edit to the page and South mainly corrects my grammar. Arstarpool 02:14, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

Something you should know: Key West is a "protectorate republic" within South Florida, so I wouldn't see any problems with us making a separate article similar to. Arstarpool 02:24, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

I really don't know where to respond to this, so I decided on it here.

From Zach's talk page:

"In an unrelated, more "neutral" event, I have made Yank a caretaker to the South Florida article after a series of complications regarding the Keys. Arstarpool 02:14, July 22, 2010 (UTC)"

And so, the "complication" is that an article is in the wings for a Conch Republic as a subdivision of "growing" South Florida. I agree that South Florida probably did not get hit as hard as first thought, but Key West was one of the accepted upon targets, so the Conch Republic is missing its capital

I only correct grammar and spelling as a service to the wiki. If you don't like it, I suppose I can resist the urge. I have left the story to you guys, since I lived in the panhandle and was only in the keys once. Other than that, I lived in Gainesville and visitied the Cape and the Orlando area a couple of times. SouthWriter 02:49, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

In fact, the Key's were hit by a low-yield missile directed at the Naval Base, damaging the southern side of the city. Key West itself is essentially a novelty, home to nothing in reality. Arstarpool 02:55, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

There are a couple things I wanna talk about.

1. You mentioned that you wanted to change the name of the Dixie Alliance to the Eastern Alliance, but you said it would be too hard. If you want I could do the changes for you, but I would suggest the name "Eastern American Alliance" to avoid confusion.

2. I've noticed that you have changed the name of Virginia. Do you want me to move the page to the new name?

3. Virginia and Ithaca are both candidates for new members of the United Communities. If you agree, Virginia would be placed on the Security Council along with Superior.

Re: Trotsky
Congrats on being selected to the TSPTF!

I think Trotsky already has a role in the Oktoberkreig, but I'll look at that more carefully. What were some of your other ideas? I feel that if Edison was not being a thief/asshole as in OTL, Tesla could have invented some real innovative ideas that could have solved some of the energy issues that plague OTL (ever notice how few wars there have been in the ATL 20th century?). Just a thought. KingSweden 16:17, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

Sounds great! KingSweden 16:46, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

Tbguy and myself are looking at already established stubs for Napoleon's World, and I extended an invite to him to expand upon them. Are there any nations/wars you have interest in contributing to? Some (like Colombia, Alaska and England) are already pretty fleshed out, but there's tons left (especially on some of hte late-20th century military conflicts).

Also, any good new ideas for Film, TV or Literature in Napoleon's World? You seem to have endless suggestions for popular culture (ex. Kim Jong-Il)

KingSweden 06:22, August 8, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, those all sound pretty good, I'll play around with those. Did you ever plan on doing something with Manfred von Richtofen (whoever that is)?

ALSO, a thought on Jim Carrey and Hermann Goering.

I love the Goering idea, but I'm curious as to whether or not the Louvre would still be a museum in ATL... do you really think a line of Bonaparte emperors would use it as such? While Napoleon I and his successors built their own mighty palace, I can't imagine the Louvre getting the same treatment. I can, however, make a few quick edits to make Goering the head of the Imperial Museum in Paris. Same idea, right?

Also, I'm still uneasy about Carrey abandoning a chance to run for Prez in '04 as a popular young Democratic governor of a typically Nationalist state... Obviously Leno wins the primaries, but maybe there was a huge controversy in him picking the hard-left Springsteen as his running mate instead of the young, promising potential protege in Carrey? What do you think?

KingSweden 03:11, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

Maybe he founded the French Air Command? (The French name for Air Force)

So Napoleon I started the Louvre conversion? Hmm. I did not know that. My mistake, I should have researched that better. Do you know offhand when the Mona Lisa was moved to the Louvre in OTL? (This is mainly with the film Thieves in mind). Either way, Goering is still an art collector in ATL, your brainwave on that one works brilliantly.

In order to win the Governorship of Huron, which is about as important as Michigan if not more (OTL Toronto > OTL Detroit, it'd be the same right?), you need some pretty serious clout - and you need to pander to powerful, entrenched National Party elites that have been around for over a hundred years (the shifty nature of American party allegiance is less pronounced in ATL - the South still prefers Democrats while big business walks lock-step with the Nationalists) while also appeasing the manufacturing guilds and unions. If Carrey is a Northern Democrat, in a state like Huron he'd be what's generally called a "blue dog" or "lunch-pail" Democrat - he needs to play to the center while still leaning left.

Now you see a comfortably liberal Jay Leno winning a bunch of primaries in '04, a guy who has Senate and Gubernatorial experience and whose policies are, for the most part, pretty centrist, and his charm and humor make him a great big-ticket candidate. Carrey is seen as the perfect young protege, but then Leno goes and picks Springsteen to appease the growing far-left liberal camp of the Democratic Party (a Palin-esque move). He enters the election against the hard-right Jeb Bush and his own centrist running mate (to be chosen later) and narrowly ekes out a win.

What I guess I'm describing is an overtly leftist President left in the Oval Office when Leno resigns back in June over health concerns, sort of a liberal version of what would happen had Palin been stuck in power if McCain resigned (or more likely, kicked the bucket). I'm not an OTL Democrat or Republican, so this isn't meant to be a wankfest, I just figured it would be an interesting idea.

Besides, in 2012, who better to usurp Springsteen than the man he supposedly replaced... Jim Carrey? A centrist Midwestern Governor would fare extremely well against the hard-right Steve Young or the robotic, Romneyesque Brian Williams (who are the only heavyweight National Party frontrunners this early in the race). Carrey would be a far more lucrative option than the very liberal Senator Jack Kennedy, Jr. from New York, don't you think?

Also, I added a little something for Francis Ford Coppola... I think you'll like it haha.

Nice touch, that would be great to have these blood thirsty killers out and about, a great idea. I'll try and think outside of the box as you have and try to find some awesome, not necessarily comic book characters.

I too have a few ideas. Since I'm a fan of Ultimate Marvel, I was thinking of adding a Reserve of sorts for the ANZC, soldiers who have been given Pym particles and are now known as the Giant Men. We could also have a lot of Iron Men, not just one, patroling the skies of the ANZC. Also, to balance everything, the SAC would have the Nova Corps stationed in Brazil as well as perhaps a mutant force, I'm still working on the details. Siberia would also have a reserve force of Crimson Dynamos and a Punishment Corps, non-superpowered people who have costumes giving them enhanced senses, strength, speed and agility, who have been hand-picked from the army.--Vladivostok 21:56, August 17, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry Dude
Well, I am a fuckwad ,I guess.

To be honest I am pretty tired and I don't know what to say but I am sorry for getting into arguments with you. While I realize that your, um, condition may have started a couple arguments, most of the you-between-me arguments were actually my fault for reacting bad to some of your comments. You stood up for me during the SNU-CR dispute and then I shot you down when I rediscovered that your original attack at me when I arrived. But I know what its like for people with your case. I have a cousin with the same condition and I made fun of him at first, and still did up until this summer, when I real ized that I am not perfect and I have a couple flaws myself.

However, regardless of the situation, I'm not happy about you calling me an asshole. But I still become friends again and bury the hatchet and work together.

Would you like to work on together? It is a town that is a county next to Ithaca and maybe they can form some type of confederation sometime in the future.

Re: Papal States
I've always ballparked it at around Bologna - France definitely controls Milan and Venice, but not a whole lot else. Also, do keep in mind that the Pope and Italian republicans strike a deal to share power, thus forming the "Roman Republic" that exists today (which comprises mainland Italy, Sicily and Sardinia). I believe that this occurs in the 1970's sometime after the 1972 World Cup is held in the Papal States (one of the last times I can recall Papal States appearing in the text before the Roman Republic is formed).

Check the Timeline (Napoleon's World) page for the name of the current pope, it should be on there around 2000 or 2001?
