Principia Moderni IV (Map Game)

The Ming Dynasty still rules over the vast lands of China. On the other side of the world, the Hundred Years War continues between England and France. Europe is still stuck in the old ways of feudalism and chivalry while the notions of a New World are considered figments of imagination.

We welcome you to the long awaited fourth expansion of that immortal series. Welcome to Principia Moderni IV! Starting in 1400 AD, this is the dawn of the modern world and the tail end of the Middle Ages. The Renaissance is just kicking off in Europe, while the nations in the western side of the continent are locked in the last gasp of the Hundred Years War. The Muslim world is still reeling from the invasions of Turks and Mongols, with the Caliphate resting in the collapsing Mamluk Egypt and the Ottomans on the rise in Anatolia. Make it count.

The first game was the most successful on the wiki, leading all the way to the modern day with mostly plausible posts and little controversy. The second game reached almost to the modern day, but failed due to a plethora of ASB events and moderator bias. The third game was much more worthy of the first, almost running into implausibility but climbing back into a shining glory by the end. Riding on the latest reforms of map games since the end of PMIII, this is the most logical next step in that evolution. Remember  above all other rules — have fun.

Moderator Strikes
These are strikes for moderators and how they moderate. The same three strikes rules apply. If a moderator is banned from moderating, however, they can still play as their nation. Mod strikes can be delivered in one of three ways: Moderators can be given strikes for the following reasons:
 * 1) If a sufficient number of players (more than half of all players voting) vote to give a moderator a strike.
 * 2) If I, Scraw, give them a strike.
 * 3) If a majority of all mods (ie more than half of the total number of mods, excluding that moderator) vote to give a moderator a strike.
 * 1) Exhibiting bias that would benefit the nation they are playing.
 * 2) Exhibiting bias that would negatively affect a player they have a personal dispute with.
 * 3) Making a ruling that contradicts a proven fact from OTL or an established fact from earlier in the game.
 * 4) Overruling a decision of a majority of moderators.

 * Pueblo Confederacy: We continue our war with the comanche and successfully push them back past the OTL border of Texas. Our forces suffered heavy losses (1,500), and we wish for a peace treaty with the Comanche along with an agreement for them to stay off our land{Mod Response}. The first two christian churches our built in a couple of our southern pueblos and roughly one quarter of our population is christian. A religious divide increase between the conservative north and the christian south. We gained numerous horses from our war with the Comanche and begin building our own native herds. Our sheep herds have prospered in the unusually wet year and we have begun raising cattle herds. We ask for a defensive alliance with the Navajo {Mod Response} and the Kimuenim Tribes.
 * Comanche reluctantly agree, Navajo do not give any concrete promises despite your emissary's best attempts..
 * The Kimuenim agree.
 * France: The Human zoo continues to epxand. The Bordeaux and Sarzana cartels continue to expand. Brazil continues expanding inward. New France continues expanding inward. France keeps expanding deeper into Argentina. Parisian French continues growing as the vernacular in all the French lands. Boreno expands up the coast. Palu is expanded. Forts on the Ivory coast continues to expand.
 * Avignon Papacy: The Cardinal Borja takes the name Alexander. His first thing he does is he lifts the bans on persecution of Jews and slavery. Alexander focuses on making Coptic and Latin the official languages of mass and scripture. Alexander appoints his "nephew" aka son a cardinal.
 * British dip: Seeing this new Pope is reactionary we ask him to allow us to nationalise the monasteries.
 * Empire of Uluru: Grand Bakan Yannathan is aroused from a strange dream. He dreamed he was living among the gods, in a world filled with fantastic technology and magic, centered on a state of sand that stretched the world over, but all collapsed in a fortnight. Being very concerned of the meaning of this dream, he immediately consults the chief Dreamspeakers at the White Chapel of Mount Uluru. The Dreamspeakers assure Yannathan that this is a good omen, promising the eventual dominence of the empire over all living creatures on Earth. However, later that year, Yannathan's father Emperor Dadu II was brutally assassinated by his brother, the wicked lord Wako. The new Emperor Wako forces Yannathan into exile from the capital of Ngarrindjeri. However, Yannathan still holds high esteem among the military, and presses many campaigns in the northern hinterland to train his personal army. Meanwhile, economy improves with fishing and farmland expand across the nation. The military is improved with the new modernized iron mining, including plate armor on horseback riding. Local lords of vassal nations pay tribute of taro back to the emperor.
 * Sultanate of Cyprus: In Jaffarid Arabia, the ex-Grand Vizier Mu'Tamid al-Satter published a book defending his political ideas and those of Farid. The book, named Al'Iislahiat Waltantir (English: Reformism and Enlightenment), proposed ideas for an enlighten monarchy that support trade and social reforms, while still not going into republican ideas. He also suggest the Mujtamae system as the best first step toward a consultative monarchy. Although the book is very critical of the current Cypriot regime, it is surprisingly supporting some of Sultan Jalil's ideas, especially during his earlier reign when he focused on trade and reforming the Cypriot government. Meanwhile, in Cyprus, both Sultan Hasim and Grand Vizier Mu'sad Sarraf make a temporary truce to fight this new book, banning it from the island. Even so, many former supporters of Farid are able to get a copy on the island illegally.  Grand Vizier Mu'saf Sarraf begin modernizing the army with the help of the Mujtamae Aljaysh (Army). Meanwhile, Sultan Hasim visit Cairo to pay his respect to the Rashidun Caliph to celebrate the 75 years of the foundation of the Sultanate, when in 1675 the Rashidun Caliph promoted Hasim's great-grandfather, Emir Ahmad of Cyprus, to a vassal Sultan.
 * Belkan Federation: This year the Belkan National Congress officially ends this year with the all the major issues comming in resolved. The voters rights having been particularly contentious however has come to head as a universal male sufferage as decided upon by some major leaders of the congress Kamarov himself included saying. "If the men are willing to submit themselves to conscription, then the men should be able to decide on the leaders that conscript them." With this finalized the Belkan Federation is officially formed out of the ashes of the Empire. This leads to the elections of the Duma, Senate, and Vozdh. A Series of radical liberal parties take over most of the senate hoping to end many of the old vestiges of Feudalism within the new Republic. The Duma has many of the more level headed members of the enlightened council as well as some more conservative elements who are open to liberal reform. The Vozdh however is almost unanimously elected with Mikhail Kamarov taking place once again as Vozdh after agreeing to allow elections on the basis he remain in charge of the armies for the duration fo the crisis if he lost. With his first legitimate election to the position in the Federation he also claims victory in Greece from 1749 as word has finally reached back on the success of the campaign. With 150,000 troops now freed up, the Vozdh redistributes 50,000 around the empire sans Vlacchia and brings the other 100,000 to bear against the Russians at Galati but not before fully outfitting them with modern guns, standardized uniforms and holding a parade in their honor in Belgrad. Following this they are sent north to Galati to engage the russians with further supplies to re-arm and re-equip another 200,000 men. The Vozdh begins working on re-establishing the Belkan economy as well as other potential threats as the Invasion of Russia is potentially nowhere near the last that could be brought to bear on the new Federal state. He also goes about appointing 10 judges to the High Court system.
 * Russia: Stalemate falls upon the battlefield at Galati. The limited reenforcments of Belkan royalists still failed to produce a result. Both sides hammered each other but the Belkan Federalists had the advantage in numbers. On September 18th, a lucky Belkan bullet got the better of Tsar Pyotr II. A bullet struck him near the heart. The lines panicked, and ran. Savinkov attaemlted to rally the troops but with the Tsar dead there was little hope. A group revolutionaries seized the Palace of St. Rurik, and declared a Provisional Republic. A Duma was set up. Prince Konstantin, too young to rule was locked up. Peasants in the south did rise up, birthing a quick conscript Force couldn't put down. There were riots in the streets. A few nobles hanged in the streets. Savinkov was horrified. In mid December the situation straightened of enough for the formation of political parties. The leaders of the current government are known as the Decembrist Party, and have limited support from the military. The Radical Party, is made of fringe groups bound together to eradicate monarchy across the world and create a world Republic, their support is limited and dominant in the south. Savinkov, on December 31st, announced the formation of the National Party, his own Vozdhist party.
 * Kingdom of Mzerka and Wiyot:Our goverment Decides to begin taxation on exports of food,books and gold,this is done so that these recources would be less often shipped and traded to other lands.Our farmers also keep breeding horses some of which are begining to be used in the army for scouting.Our labourers also keep repairing damage of the earthquake.Our priests also ask the vatican if they could fund the Building of a great cathedral for the mzerkan representetives for the church and their priests(Vatican Reponse)
 * Grandduchy of Oldenburg: The new dockyard in Emden begins to producing new and faster battle- and tradingships. As the duchy's military council decided, the army will be modernized with new guns and a cumpulsary military service for the oldest son of every family in the age between 16 and 19. Every soldier has to serve for at least one year.
 * The Kimuenim, under the leadership of Friar Grebel and La'na, continue to take advantage of the bewildering array of new crops and technologies that they have begun to explore. The cultivation of potatoes, alongside wheat, corn, and other crops, continues to expand, giving rise to a population boom as starvation is reduced. The herds of the nomadic Kimuenim also increase, with new livestock - sheep and goats - proving especially popular. Friar Grebel, still at work on a translation of the Bible into Niimipu and development of an alphabet, is eager to secure coastal access, which would enable him to establish secure communication with his fellow Franciscans. Meanwhile, raiding from the Ute to the south forces La'na to call a council of the various local leaders at Kartoffelsburg. He takes advantage of this to advance more forward-minded allies over traditionalist chieftains by giving them places on the council, which coordinates defensive efforts. He plans to set up a quasi-permanent military force of around 500 men to repel raiding, equally recruited from nomadic and sedentary Kimuenim. These measures bring numerous eastward bands of Niimipu, and even some related Shoshone bands, under the authority of La'na, expanding the nation southwards along the Kimuenim River. Trade with the Pueblo expands; meanwhile, with the Kimuenim having secured agreement with the Chinook to move westwards in the autumn, a group of Kimuenim move down the river and settle along the lower Columbia River, planting crops, in an area of otherwise useless marshland - a location from which their influence can spread to the Chinook. Forges continue to be built and metal tools to spread.
 * Way to fast -Feud
 * What? How can it be too fast to "be at work" on something? Not only that, there is absolutely no reason it's implausible for a literate priest to try to adapt the Bible into the language of the group he is seeking to convert, using a modified Latin script. There are many examples of this OTL; did it with the Guarani language in the 1600s, other missionaries did it with  in the 1760s. It's not at all difficult (well, relatively) to adapt a language into the Latin script, and missionaries have a strong incentive to do so in order to convert populations.
 * Ququququ: The Koito reform continues and his Angu-Zia son is elected new Namton A'fao for a lifelong term As the Ququququ nation is finally stable enough, the outlying tribes are contacted in order to induce them into the Union. (basically, slow map expansion, approved by Feud). The Japanese contact continues, and Ququququ contine adopting children born of interracial relations in the Jin port, in order to avoid the infanticide.
 * United Kingdom of Great Britain: England has 6.8 million people and inside of that London has a population of 0.8 million, Wales has 0.6 million, Ireland has 2.7 million people and Scotland 1.1 million. The army undergoes a shifting of forces to the south of England with 2000 in London, 3000 in Portsmouth, 3000 in Dublin and 2000 in Cork, 1000 in Edinburgh and 1000 in Cardiff while an additional 13000 troops are overseas with 5000 in Arcadia, 3000 in Casablanca, 2000 in English Maiam, 1000 in Haiti as well as 500 in St George, St Helena, New Canterbury and Bay of Kost. The fleet is divided with 150 ships stationed in Portsmouth, 150 ships stationed in Bristol and 50 in New London. Within Britain the education system continues through the running of universities, grammar schools, travelling education and the boarding academies of the London Civil Service academy and the Oxford Preparatory school. With improved bridge and tunnelling abilities efforts are made to straighten roads and canals cutting down times. The beginning of the industrial revolution in western Europe is largely an increase in existing growths in manufacturing. Steam engines grow in use in the mines for pumping water but are hampered by their high inefficiency though it does allow digging deeper and more coal to be harvested. Lewis Paul's mill continues to run well making a profit with its lower costs. There is a growth in the use of cast iron from pig iron. Agriculture continues to change with almost all farms being enclosed, the four field crop rotation system being universal and the use of moldboard and wheel-less plough. The increase in the production of cast iron leads to a rise in iron ploughs which are better. With the treaty of Rabat sorted out, the conflict with Maghreb is ended and a permanent force is established in Casablanca. Construction work begins on improving the harbour significantly and building a fort near the harbour inside of the city demolishing a couple of homes but compensating allowing them to build outside. Goods from Britain such as textiles, cash crops and spices enter the city's market place without tariffs because it is a part of Britain while it finds market for the things it produces in Casablanca. People of Casablanca's religious rights are respected. Westminster bridge is opened in London while John Canton reads a paper to the Royal Society on the creation of artificial magnets. The earthquakes in Warrington are worrying but after no more appear the event is dismissed as one off and inexpiable although the Royal Society does give it some though. Secret: The Pope in Rome is asked for permission to nationalise the monasteries in exchange for coming back into the Papal fold of Rome. 
 * British Arcadia: The 5000 British troops in Arcadia are spread out with 1000 in New York, 2000 in Henry's land, 1000 in New Gwynedd and the remaining 1000 are divided between the remaining areas. In addition local militia forces do exist but they aren't standing and are spread out although they are armed. In Avalon frontiers push 50 px northwards into OTL Quebec and 50 px into Alabama from New Essex as waves of farmers finishing their contracts go looking out for their own significant plots. push in coming from Britain encouraged by offer of free land and vote in the colonial assemblies. The assemblies continue to function. The sale of furs, sugar, tobacco, coffee, bananas and other cash crops continue to bring in good money. There is a militia of 21,000 citizens who are while unprofessional do have weapons and supplies. The colonies are at 2.3 million people. The Royal Navy continue patrols in the Atlantic.
 * Roman Papal Secret Dip: The Pope agrres that the Crown can nationalise the estates of the monasteries [which let's be real is the valuable part], providing that the buildings can still be used by the monks/nuns, or adequate replacement buildings be found.
 * British dip: With the agreement of the only Pope, the one in Rome who has the full support of the British Parliament the estates off the monasteries are taken into ownership by the Crown while the Crown takes personal responsibility for the housing of all religious people allowing them to continue using the majority of their buildings with replacements found from Crown properties if required.
 * Salish Nation: Our food supply begins to diversify, growing from Fishing and Hunting/Gathering, to support minor farming as well. With our Chinook contacts, we hear of the Kimuenim people, and request an alliance/trade deal. Also, strange people have shown up on our shores. Some of them come to trade. Others, to spread their faith. In total, about 3 ships full of these people have visited us. 2 regularly show up to give us clear beads in exchange for fur. Some of our people have begun hunting creatures exclusively for their pelts. With our farming growing slowly, our population has begun growing. we commission a census, and our population is estimated at ~25k people (feel free to nerf, I do have some logic behind that number however)


 * Iberia: With the recent victory over Maghreb, Iberia now holds the greatest amount of trade power in West Africa, shared with the British, French, and Scandinavians. There is an increased output of slaves and raw materials to the colonies as a result. Iberian influence in the interior begins to wane as the native states grow more independent. The nobility of Sine seize Kaolack, re-establishing the Kingdom of Saloum. The mouth of the Gambia comes under the rule of the King of Kombo. The protectorate of Bissau suffers unrest and tensions between natives and their Maghrebi and Iberian rulers. In the New World, fur traders build trading posts up the Mississippi and Missouri, expanding the Mêcicipi colony upriver. Maranhão expands along the Tocantins and Araguaia rivers and into the OTL states Maranhão, Tocantins and Piauí. Rebuilding of settlements in California continues. Exploration of the Amazon continues; some explorers reach Maipure territory this year. The native population in Trinidad dwindles due to the slave trade.
 * Italian League: With the war with Maghreb now over Italian forces return north, however, a large garrison remains in all of the seized territory, overseeing the repair or construction of fortifications and ports. Shipbuilding continues at a fast rate, especially in the south. A decree is issued by Carlo Bonaparte expanding the grand senate more than any previous expansion, vastly increasing the number of elected officials in the assembly, while also reforming the requirements to vote, giving the vote to upper middle class men, in additional to basically the entire upper class. Military build up continues steadily, due to the uncertainty of the nation's neighbors, especially Belka. Although the government interprets the overthrow/replacing of the government as a formal breaking of the two nations' alliance, thus not requiring military intervention necessarily, the government still watches the situation closely, viewing the furthering of republican ideals as a positive thing. The rate of enlightenment publications across the nation continues to grow.
 * Papal States: The Papal military is improved due to the increased unrest in Europe. Pope Michael writes an encyclical entitled Ut omnes unum sint (that all may be one), calling for Christian unity, an end to the Schism, and the unification of the Copts with the rest of Christendom. In Rome, the near-success of the Mongolian Patriarch of the East in the Conclave leads to a spike in interest in Mongolian culture. The small palace of the Patriarch's representative is besieged with artists and musicians, which leads to the small choir of Mongolian throat singers performing publically throughout Rome to great acclaim.

'''Neocynicism fares suprisingly well in the Sino-Korean union. Barrel dwellers appear in major cities, criticizing society and comitting obscene acts. While different than their Western counterparts due to basing themselves more off of Eastern philosophy, they are still seen as deviants by most people in the nation.'''

The collapse or revolt against three major European monarchies sends shockwaves across Europe as the new ideals become blamed for this with many Italian, Belkan, Austrian, and newly Russian authors being banned in various western european countries

'''In Austria, Otto has run out of money to fund his rebellion. Unable to feed or supply his troops, most of them desert until he is left with only a paltry force of his hardcore loyalists.

The last of his supporters flee as far as they can from Austria, running to the Rhineland and hiding.'''

''' Prince Matteo of Sicily dies. Some foreign prince is elected. '''

''' A Turkic delegation from the new Great Khan arrives in Europe to learn the ways of the west. '''
 * Sicily: We continue to upgrade our navy and shipbuilding capabilities as requested by the Italian League. Sicilian forces take part in the invasion of the Maghreb, and the swift victory is celebrated by the people of the nation. With Matteo I's death the nation is shocked and mourns the popular king. In the aftermath of the war and also the loss of the Duchy of Calabria from the House of Orsini, the dynasty lacks the powerbase to win the next election, especially considering Matteo I's lack of male heir. The former Charles V even claims the throne, a claim that is rejected by the nobles, and he goes back to petitioning the pope for lands and titles. The elderly Grand Duke Michel of Savoy is elected as king. His succession is seen by some as an attempt to bring Savoy within the domain, dangerously flairing relations with France. As such the move is seen to be unwise, although the nobles approve the election nonetheless secretly in an attempt to strain the Italian League. Duke Michel never actually spends any time in Sicily however, and six weeks later dies of old age. Instead a local noble from the House of Adragna is elected, becoming known as Alessandro II. Having been ignored by the Pope, and sensing that the Pope himself is distracted with other matters, the former Charles V, at the head of a band of Sicilian exiles and mercenaries, and with assistance from the Condottiero Virginio, lays siege to the city of Paliano, the seat of the Colonna family. He declares himself Duke-Prince of Paliano, although intending to swear fealty to the Pope, and merely live within the Papal States as a feudal lord/vassal.
 * Papal Dip: The Papacy will grant the former king a title of nobility provided he demobilises and lays down his weapons immediately.
 * Sicilian Diplomacy: Charles requests that the Pope formally recognize his conquest as legitimate and in exchange he will swear fealty to the Pope and cease any violence.


 * Pueblo Confederacy: Due to the growing religious divide between our people a small civil war erupted between a few of the pueblos some of the warriors of the neutral pueblos were summoned in order bring an end to the conflict. The result was an agreement reached by the elders was to establish freedom of religion in the confederacy. Missionaries could go wherever they pleased and local shamans could continue their practices. More churches sprouted because of this agreement, including one in the capital of Taos. Our population has grown to a little over 80,00 nearly a third of whom identify as Christian. Our churches send an emissary to Rome asking for more missionaries as well as aid. Although Christianity first came to us through Iberia we follow the Roman Pope simply because we abhor slavery and the Anti-Pope supports it. We establish Iberian as our written as well as our trade language. Our agriculture has nearly reached the same levels as that of Europe and we have begun to master metal craft. We begin a settlement up in central OTL Colorado.
 * Empire of Uluru: The reign of Emperor Wako is long and terrible. He works this year to begin reducing the power of the tributary lords, and replacing many offices with local magestrates. This greatly angers the nobility, and they pledge more support to Yannathan. Meanwhile, the Grand Bakan Yannathan continues to lead his army north to conquer more of the barbarians of the northern wastelands. This year, Yannathan comes in the service of one very powerful feudal lord, and asks what quest he may perform to win his favor. The noble, whose name was Bambam, asked for Yannathan to marry his daughter, the beautiful Elanora. But first, to prove his worth Yannathan must retrieve the sacred antler of the great animal Gunni. However, this is not easy as the Gunni is almost impossible to catch. Yannathan was very clever, however, and managed to set a trap for the beast, slowing it down enough to cut off part of its horn. Overall, economy by farming and fishing continues to improve. The Dreamspeakers work to standardize the Anangu language, both spoken and written form.
 * Jaffarid Sultanate: Sultan Muhammad, age 22, continues to un-affiliate himself with any religion as Sultan, and unexpectedly, this causes some citizens to follow his lead, although such a small amount shouldn't matter at this time. Sultan Muhammad dislikes the book that originated in Maghreb, and speaks about how it very "un-islamic" of them to distribute the book at such a large celebration and to have even created it in the first place. The book written by Vizier Mu'Tamid al-Satter entitled Al'Iislahiat Waltantir is finally read by the Sultan following numerous demands. A study discovers that 47% of youths that have graduated secondary school further their education in an tertiary educational institution, which is 15% higher than it was 20 years ago. Work In Progress.
 * New Avengers 1.5: Captain Arabia II and the Avengers continue searching for the evil organization known as A'ddar, and begin interrogating suspected members. New heroes join as the search now encompasses more of Assyria.
 * Russia: Parts of the provisional government are unpopular, and the Radical Party is increasingly demanding the heir to the throne hanged on behalf the "oppressed people." Soon several terrorist bombings occur, the first domestic uses of scatter rifles are used during the 1751 Tsaritsyn Riots. The assassination of Prime Minister Nikolai Petrovich would lead the National Party and Boris Savinkov to take control in a paramilitary coup. Savinkov changed the flag to one of the Romanov colors with a sword pointed right-down. Savinkov gives his speech on the balcony of the Palace of St. Rurik "What has become of us, raging at each other 40 years after the start of a civil war. This country doesn't need more death, it needs unity. We have no need for these radicals who will just ruin this country. We will have strength, unity, order, and most importantly faith. One Nation, One Country, One Russia." After that speech the Radical Party was disbanded as the National Party became the utter majority in the Duma. Boris Viktorovich Savinkov because the "Vozdh" of Russia, becoming the dictator of the vast Russian Empire, installing Orthodox Christianity as the state religon (jews would tolerated if they accepted Savinkovs rule).
 * Papal Diplomacy: Pope Mihael (former Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople, recently elected Pope) encourages the new Russian government in its newfound religious rigour.
 * Papal States: Pope Michael's bringing of the British back into the Roman fold is hailed by one and all as a great diplomatic success, although some Benedictine abbots write to His Holiness worrying about the fate of their counterparts in Britian. Once the ever-faithful British government's generosity vis a vis the accomodation of the monastics is public knowledge, however, even the abbots rejoice in Pope Michael's success. France and Iberia, the only remaining western states recognising Antipope Alexander, are called upon to join the lead of Britain and re-enter the fold of the One Church. Missions continue,
 * The kingdom of Mzerka,Wiyot and the duchy of Miwok:Some of the rich and more powerfull families found "The national congres of the kingdom of Mzerka,Wiyot and the duchy of Miwok" they did this to get more power into their hands and limit the power of the monarchy,this Congres was also meant to get a bigger goverment.The congres doesn't have any legal power or importance at the moment but with their aims this may be changed in the future.The king does state that he does want to work with them if they will support him and show loyalty to him and the crown.


 * Jin dynasty: Emperor Qianlong orders a crackdown on neo-cynicism, especially after one infamous neo-cynic, a particularly handsome courtesan by the name of Bide (often known by his baptismal name Petar) began masturbating and displaying his lengthy lavender juicebox under the gaze of Emperor, disrupting the court meeting. Fortunately for the said neo-cynic, he managed to convince the Emperor to lower his sentence from death from to dishonourable discharge and mandatory identity change, with him being blacklisted in imperial examination. Now he squats around the streets of Qingdao as a male prostitute, residing in a barrel-shaped mansion he constructed utilizing the profit he gained from commercialized sex. He also starts a Slav-themed brothel with some Russian merchants, which is oddly successful. There are sightings of the Emperor visiting said brothel to visit Bide, but any discussion about this is quickly ended under fears of penalization. With the smaller yet reinvigorated navy now finished reformation, with a permanent sailor force being established, naval vessels are deployed in the Korea strait, Sea of Korea, Taiwan Strait, and South China Sea in order to assert Sino-Korean dominance in said areas, and to ensure the safety of China and Korea's coastal settlements. Two treasure ships are sent west to visit the states of India and to Arabia. The policy of militarization continues to be pursued, with shipyards, arsenals, and industrial facilities dedicated to producing armaments (i.e., guns and armour) and other military-related objects being built. Basic sanitation is promoted; public bathhouses, spas, latrines, and sewage systems are all built. The Grand Canal is expanded and renovated to accommodate greater boat traffic, and in-order to provide adequate irrigation to more the far-flung inland rural communities. To facilitate transportation and growing merchantile acitvities, paved roads are built. Commercialization and the division of labour continues, resulting from a heightened demand for commercial goods from both the domestic and foreign market.
 * Nivkh Commandery: Tiger Pastries Inc., a subsidiary of Lady Lin Tea, continues to flourish as a business, with a fourth and fifth outlet opening in Dalyeon and Hangzhou respectively. The "Krabby Patty" (螃蟹漢堡; Pángxiè hànbǎo) is made, using crab meat, sea kelp and other ingredients. Macaroons are also made, and gain widespread popularity. The Nivkh Prince-Governor (which is the member of the Nivkh Ayzik branch of the House of Kim) continues to adopt Korean and Chinese architecture, paving roads to facilitate transport, and replacing wood and thatch roofing with stone bricks and clay tiles, respectively.
 * Sakha (protectorate): The Khan continues to adopt Korean and Chinese architecture, paving roads to facilitate transport, and replacing wood and thatch roofing with stone bricks and clay tiles, respectively. Siberian crab-apples become a local renowned fruit, and is particularly prized in Korea and northern China.
 * Xizang (protectorate): Lhasa, the capital, is expanded and modernized. Advisors are sent to assist the Tibetan clergy in administrating the protectorate. Many Tibetans are encouraged (via financial incentives) to become more sedentary, with food instead being supplied from nearby Sichuan (thereby reducing overreliance in inefficient herding). A drink made out of fermented wheat mixed with tatar milk concentrate is made, as to mimic the scent and taste of urine. This drink, known as "Tibetan Beer", is used as a "repellent" for yeti. A few sightings of yeti are reported.
 * Port of Nangang: The Emperor decides send more emissaries to the Angu peoples and peripheral tribes in Haegajang in-order to enrich the knowledge of their culture, while sends more colonists to cement the colony of Nangang from any tribal intrusions. Mixed-racial children continue to be orphaned and sent to the Angu. A fort is built on the company after several pirate raids and Japanese naval competition.
 * Sultanate of Cyprus: Sultan Hasim began to order massive searches in the cities to find copies of Al'Iislahiat Waltantir, which gained popularity among the secret groups who support a more enlightened monarchy. He also use this massive search to find the uncensored copies of Amadlan Lekka (the book from the Lord Regent of Maghreb), confiscating and arresting many members of the military. This anger the Grand Vizier Rafeed Mu'sad Sarraf quite a lot, as some of his allies are arrested and even executed for possessing the uncensored book. Mu'sad Sarraf continue to reform the army, especially since it now need a new leadership with some of the higher ups in jail. The Sultan also begin to invest to rebuild a fleet, hoping to finally rebuild it the size it was in 1733. The tensions between the Sultan Hasim and Mu'sad Sarraf grow once more, when in November a fire burn part of the royal palace. The fact Mu'sad Sarraf pinned the culprits (old supporters of Farid) so fast is seen by some as a show of his great talent and that he is necessary in the government, while other believe Mu'sad Sarrif was behind the fire and used the old liberals as scapegoats.
 * Ququququ: The Koito reform continues and. As the Ququququ nation is finally stable enough, the outlying tribes are contacted in order to induce them into the Union. (basically, slow map expansion, approved by Feud). The Japanese contact continues, and Ququququ contine adopting children born of interracial relations in the Jin port, in order to avoid the infanticide. With a solidified rule the Ququququ are now a most formidable force in the region, with infrastructural advancement putting them on a higher level than any other tribes, as well as their linguistic unity.  Moreover, the Ququququ slowly organize their military and begin creating better weapons compared to their non-organized neighbours, using metals such as iron, with guidance of the Nangang emissaries.
 * United Kingdom of Great Britain: England has 6.8 million people and inside of that London has a population of 0.8 million, Wales has 0.6 million, Ireland has 2.7 million people and Scotland 1.1 million. The army undergoes a shifting of forces to the south of England with 2000 in Aldershot, 3000 in Portsmouth, 3000 in Dublin and 2000 in Cork, 1000 in Edinburgh and 1000 in Cardiff while an additional 13000 troops are overseas with 5000 in Arcadia, 3000 in Casablanca, 2000 in English Maiam, 1000 in Haiti as well as 500 in St George, St Helena, New Canterbury and Bay of Kost. The fleet is divided with 150 ships stationed in Portsmouth, 150 ships stationed in Bristol and 50 in New London. Steam engines grow in use in the mines for pumping water but are hampered by their high inefficiency though it does allow digging deeper and more coal to be harvested. There is a growth in the use of cast iron from pig iron. The increase in the production of cast iron leads to a rise in iron ploughs which are better. Construction work continues on improving the harbour significantly and building a fort near the harbour inside of the city demolishing a couple of homes but compensating allowing them to build outside. Goods from Britain such as textiles, cash crops and spices enter the city's market place without tariffs because it is a part of Britain while it finds market for the things it produces in Casablanca. People of Casablanca's religious rights are respected. Seeing major political tension sweeping Europe, a group of radical Whigs in Parliament begin to call for support and recognition of the Russian and Belkan governments and for the monarchy to reform. This is seen by some Tories as a threat to the monarchy and groups within Britain begin to call for political change but there is a disagreement as to what they want in political change. With the Whigs facing an internal civil war and crisis, Henry Pelham meets with the Kings and gains his agreement resolve the problem of republicanism in Britain, Parliament recognises Belka and Russian republican governments but at the same time it is now mandate that any Ministry which cannot command the confidence of the House of Commons must resign. In addition the constituencies are re- organised to take account of the growth of cities abolishing a number of constituencies and removing MP's for some boroughs. In addition all those holding £10 copy holds are now given the right to vote in elections. To quell the monarchical discontent the military has to swear an oath of allegiance to defend the monarch while the militia is reorganised by individual members of Parliament giving them weapons better used for crowd suppression such as batons and large shields and excluding many people from the militia who are more inclined to support the Republicanism such as the well educated. Gunpowder and muskets are moved out of the cities. The newly taken estates of the Church are put to good use increasing the Crown incomes.
 * British Arcadia: The 5000 British troops in Arcadia are spread out with 1000 in New York, 2000 in Henry's land, 1000 in New Gwynedd and the remaining 1000 are divided between the remaining areas. In addition local militia forces do exist but they aren't standing and are spread out although they are armed. In Avalon frontiers push 50 px northwards into OTL Quebec and 50 px into Alabama from New Essex as waves of farmers finishing their contracts go looking out for their own significant plots. push in coming from Britain encouraged by offer of free land and vote in the colonial assemblies. In the new reorganisation of Parliament, British Arcadia is given a number of Parliamentary county boroughs with similar population numbers to existing English constituencies under the same conditions of 40 shilling's freeholders and ten- pound copy-holders. The sale of furs, sugar, tobacco, coffee, bananas and other cash crops continue to bring in good money. There is a militia of 21,000 citizens who are while unprofessional do have weapons and supplies. The colonies are at 2.3 million people. The Royal Navy continue patrols in the Atlantic.


 * Iberia: Some Iberian explorers visit Hawaii, but make no record of their visit. Goa reaches its peak prosperity, with a population of several hundred thousand and great amounts of wealth from the Indian Ocean trade. This spawns a style of architecture unique to Goa, earning the city the nickname Goa Dourada (Golden Goa). The Inquisition is in full swing in the city, suppressing Muslims and Hindus alike. The Daman and Basseim colonies are formally separated from Bombay. Fur traders build trading posts up the Mississippi and Missouri, expanding the Mêcicipi colony upriver. Maranhão expands along the Tocantins and Araguaia rivers and into the OTL states Maranhão, Tocantins and Piauí. Exploration and trade on the Amazon flourishes between Maranhão, Nova Lusitânia, and the French colonies.
 * Archduke of Austria: After continuous states of conflict and suffering, the people of Austria are more suppressed than ever before. In sight of this, former revolutionary troop leaves Austria and travels to Belka to seek help to plan another revolt and get a loan from one of the banks. In the meantime, Austria see's a slight rebuild in the nation's agriculture starts to rebuild but the high taxes on the poor continues. People that are unable to pay would be either fined or imprisoned. The once nice leader had become a tyrant dividing the glorious nation. Wilhelm successfully gets a loan from the Bank of Zagreb. In the meantime, Wilhelm begins to gain support from the revolutionaries of Croatia in order to gain feul for a second time on freeing the people of Austria. In the meantime, Former General Rommel returns back to Austria but hears about secets of a possible second revolution. Rommel get's himself caught in it all and becomes very good friends with him. In secrecy another plan for a revolution is in the works and people in the Swiss Alps all the way to Bohemia are informed in small numbers. An "accidental fire" burns down the holiday palace in Bohemia. This time a palace is constructed in Salzburg.

'''In the city of Dubrovnik, a Unitarian priest by the name of Dživo Gundulić begins writing literature that appears to combine neoscholastic elements with Enlightenment ones, inspired by the recent turmoil in the country of Belka.

'''The Zulu Empire expands up the coast of East Africa militarily establishing dozens of settlements and establishing the two nearby kingdom as vassals. They also officially discover the Scandinavian colony and demand their exit. Either the Scandinavians leave or die.'''


 * Maghreb: The Lord Regent ends the wartime state. He begins rebuilding his image and blames the decentralization of the government for the loss. The ICC goes rogue and establishes a base in an unknown location near Zayiyr where it does its operations from(I no longer control it). In the Tajammanid Vizierate, a rebellion carried out by the large prisoner population succeeds and the Vizierate becomes independent. The Lord Regent dismisses the idea of further colonies as he attempts to focus on home. The Regent is willing to sell Ard Al Zuhur to Burgundy in exchange for advanced weaponry, boats, and money. Maghrebi scientists work to create a better recipe for greek fire and to make better technologies then the europeans as the europeans now have the recipe. A new version of Greek Fire is made using petroleum found in natural seeps in Algeria. It is said to be better than the old version used by the Byzantines and the one whose recipe was given to the winners of the colonial war. The Regent works to indoctrinate the local populace to Lekkaism by touring the country doing speeches as well as writing several follow-up books to Amadlan Lekka which are put in simpler words so they can be understood by normal people. Work begins on European Line Infantry. More people go into the military. The Islamic Establishment in Maghreb’s power begins to wane. Centralization of the government goes on. Maghreb allows France to keep Al Maqadas in exchange for France giving Maghreb the latest military tactics and a sample of their weapons to be manufactured. The popularity of the Zayidi dynasty also wanes after the Sultan of Seluja betrayed Maghreb. The Maghrebi populations continues to grow. Trading continues with the Kanem Empire.
 * Empire of Uluru: Having retrieved the legendary antler of the Gunni, the Grand Bakan Yannathan is then tasked by Bambam to rescue his daughter, Elanora, who was captured by a group of Yaramayhawhos. Yannathan journeyed forth into the northern barbarian lands, but surprisingly quickly came across a woman bathing in a lake. Before his lustful passions overtook him, Yannathan remembered that Elanora was pure of heart without blemish, and so would not be behaving so scandelously. So instead, the prince took an arrow and shot at the woman. Sure enough, it was revealed to be a Drop Bear in disguise. Meanwhile, the tyrant Wako continues to anger the nobility. This year, Wako organized an imperial harem for the court of the Emperor in Ngarrindjeri, assembled from the most beautiful women of the land.
 * Pueblo Confederacy: The Population of the Confederacy has grown to 11,000. We once again ask if the Navajo would join our confederacy [mod Response}. They will be able to keep their autonomy in nearly everything except those of international diplomacy. This way if any european power attempts to conquer the southwest they will find organized resistance. Our mines in the north strike silver and iron, and we found gold in the rivers. Our smiths begin working with these metals. our livestock herds have grown to nearly 100,000. We continue to train and equip our cavalry. We ask the Pope of Rome if we may have our own bishop.
 * Navajo declines-Sky
 * The kingdom of Mzerka,Wiyot and duchy of Miwok:"The national congres of the kingdom of Mzerka,Wiyot and the duchy of Miwok" Begins to gain popularity with rich traders and big Landowners as they seek to gain power from it.At the moment the king does not see them as a problem to it but he does know that his son might not have enough knowledge to handle them from the begining.Our labourers keep reparing the damage of the earthquake.Farmers keep improving breeding horses,the army also begins to use them with knights with spears and slingers
 * You can't have duchies. You don't have such a hierarchy and no lancers. -Sky
 * Grandduchy of Oldenburg: The new formed fleet of Oldenburg is growing everyday, more and more adventurers, volunteer sailsman and cartographers are ready to discover the last unknown landscapes and seas of this planet. Meanwhile, the duke had to rise the taxes because of the costs of the new dockyard, the average citizen doesn't seems to be very worried about this.
 * Sultanate of Cyprus: Money is invested to rebuild the palace, which was mostly destroyed last year by the fire. Grand Vizier Mu'sad Sarraf also invest both in the army and in the navy, hoping to turn it into a strong force in the region (or at least enough so he can deal with any opposition to the government). Small protests erupt in Limassol against the current conservative regime, which is seen by some as oppressive, but they are quickly dealt with. The political situation in the Court is paralyzed by the growing rivalry between Sultan Hasim and Grand Vizier Mu'sad Sarraf. News arrive that Mu'tamid al-Satter, the writer of Al'Iislahiat Waltantir and a traitor according to the current regime, had died at the age of 74 years old. Many of his supporter hold secret celebrations in his honor.
 * Why do you get control over the people that you sent to my nation? - Solace AKA Jaffarid Arabia
 * I'm just going to make the executive decision for now that you can't control someone who doesn't live in your nation anymore -Natemod
 * OOC: Oh, no prob, honestly I just though nobody used him. So I wanted to kill him before I forgot about him (since he's 74 years old). If someone is using him then its all good, kee him alive.
 * Belkan Federation: The new government survives its first year and with large amounts of legitimacy. With the collapse of the Russian Invasion, and the full elections of all its positions, the Federation looks to be on solid footing. however unrest occurs in the State of Serbia. Monarchists raise an army of nearly 150,000 from the Belkan peoples in the area, and raid various supply depots arming their force. Vozdh Kamarov tiring of the constant conflict decides to personally lead this conflict hoping to once and for all crush the monarchist factions in the government. The other branches of government all begin to lose control as a reign of terror takes hold with thousands of suspected monarchists being detained and arrested. Some of the worst people are executed almost immediately as the Belkan government sanctions the outright killing of hundreds, if not thousands of people. Kamarov himself confidently rides out to meet the newest faction of monarchists, hoping to put a local dracultesti branch family member on the throne. Joseph Broz Dracultesti takes the field against Kamarov and in a stunning show of success routs Kamarovs army pushing on the capital by the end of the year. The Vozdh however responds with the erecting of Barricades, defenses outside the city and the establishment of artillery hills, hills or locations built/chosen for artillery to be used in defense of the city. Joseph himself proves to be an extremely competent commander giving the underestimating Kamarov a run for his money. However Kamarov with more troops at his disposal begins bringing in troops still in Romania to defend the Capital.
 * Russia: Tuvov starts to expand a bit east. Vozdh Savinkov changes the national flag to the banner of the National Party banner. A group of Radical Party supporters launch a coup in Tsaritsyn, and declare their secession from the now Russian State. Many supporters cross into Pontus to attempt a revolution but the Radical Army is merely just an armed Mob and mopped up by the Pontic Army. Savinkov sends in the professional army to Tsaritsyn and captures the Radicals capital. After a main battle outside of Azov the Rebels collapse. Savinkov in major news allows Prince Konstantin to go into exile in Siberia. The Prince under guard moves to Omsk, and lives in a heavily guarded house. Russian envoys to different countries in Europe spread the idea of Vozdhism, the idea of ruling with a strong hand against dissenters, and a small amount of state control in the economy. The idea also preaches that state and the leader comes before the individual.
 * Hawaii: The Kingdom continues to grow and expand across its possessions in Polynesia, as well as accelerate construction of major cities and ports across Hawaii. The proposal from Russia is denied, as the king is hesitant to allow European construction not under the jurisdiction of Hawaii, and additionally points out that there is already a major fort basically right next to where Russia proposes to build theirs. Nuakane returns to Hawaii after several years of traveling as a crewman on a European ship, now going by the nickname of "Jean". He returns with tales of the cities of Laurentia and Arcadia, as well as experience with trading with the natives of OTL California, which Iberian ships commonly travel to, as did Hawaiian ally Louis-Antoine Véron on his infamous third journey. The first European style ships are constructed in Kaluahine and Honolulu, and the king orders a trade expedition to the east to personally explore the aea, led by Nuakane. Kamanawa, the Chief of Hema Pae 'Aina, reports that he has successfully created a number of protectorates/vassals in Polynesia, namely Bora Bora and Tahiti, among others. By this time Hawaiian explorers and traders have managed to establish contact with the Angu-Zia nation that Véron once informed them of, and trade is attempted to be initiated with the nation. Expeditions continue to be sent to Kirabati and the Marshall Islands, with many of the islands being subjugated by force. The fact that these islands lie in the path of the trade routes running to Angu-Zia, and to the nations of Pohnpei and Tu'i Tonga, while also being in the direction of the winds and currents from Hawaii, leads to the Hawaiian settlements here seeing quick expansion.
 * Hquv, when did we initiate trade? -SupremeSensualSamrāṭSky 20:38, August 4, 2017 (UTC) (message my talk page)]
 * My apologies. I reworded my turn, I meant to say I am attempting to initiate this trade. So you can accept or deny it.
 * United Kingdom of Great Britain: England has 6.8 million people and inside of that London has a population of 0.8 million, Wales has 0.6 million, Ireland has 2.7 million people and Scotland 1.1 million. The army undergoes a shifting of forces to the south of England with 2000 in Aldershot, 3000 in Portsmouth, 3000 in Dublin and 2000 in Cork, 1000 in Edinburgh and 1000 in Cardiff while an additional 13000 troops are overseas with 5000 in Arcadia, 3000 in Casablanca, 2000 in English Maiam, 1000 in Haiti as well as 500 in St George, St Helena, New Canterbury and Bay of Kost.

Goods from Britain such as textiles, cash crops and spices enter the city's market place without tariffs because it is a part of Britain while it finds market for the things it produces in Casablanca. People of Casablanca's religious rights are respected. Having resolved much of the political dispute republicanism fails to gain traction in Britain. John Pringle publishes Observations on the Diseases of the Army in Camp and Garrison in London.
 * British Arcadia: The 5000 British troops in Arcadia are spread out with 1000 in New York, 2000 in Henry's land, 1000 in New Gwynedd and the remaining 1000 are divided between the remaining areas. In addition local militia forces do exist but they aren't standing and are spread out although they are armed.

There is a militia of 21,000 citizens who are while unprofessional do have weapons and supplies. The colonies are at 2.3 million people. The Royal Navy continue patrols in the Atlantic. Benjamin Franklin performs his Kite Experiment.
 * Jaffarid Arabia: Sultan Muhammad finally finishes reading Al'Iislahiat Waltantir, and comments on how it "is a good piece of literature". He publicly meets Mu'tamid al-Satter, and they hold a ceremony in his honor. Sultan Muhammad, who has defied time and space by not announcing the religion in which he follows largely, makes a speech about how "We as citizens of Arabia should be accepting of current and new cultures, languages, and religions. We should also recognize that all men are equal, and that if God had made us in his image, then God made us to not hate each other and to accept one another's beliefs." This proves controversial, however, Mu'tamid al-Satter and the Avengers back his statement, which begins to make people accept the speech as legitimate. We ask for free trade with the Italian League and Ionia (Mod).
