Idea
I am building a new game in about August 1st, with play commencing about the August 20th. It is the- The 1848 game (Map game). I have planned for new AvAr style game, but in mid Victorian times.

LG had reasonably claimed of a forum that the Confederacy was doomed so I tough of this game ~circa 1 month ago and may end up proving him wrong about the Confederates? :-) Can you make Texas great or lead the Confederacy to victory in ~1861? Rip zip and Mexico may lose a province? Because it's an alternative history site Texas just managed to ATL hold on (it's 1848, but they are as in the closing days of 1846).

My 1848 game would also have an all new algo.

Economics, infrastructure and trade plays a role in it to.

It has a new style algo to.

Scenario.
' It is the year 1848! '

Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, working in London, had written The Communist Manifesto and published in German in London on February 21, 1848.

The world's Liberals promise change, but at what cost? Anger swells in the Italian states, France, the German states, Denmark, Schleswig, the Habsburg Empire, Hungary, Switzerland, today's Western Ukraine, Greater Poland, Danubian Principalities, Belgium, Ireland, the USA, New Grenada and Brazil!... The first major outbreak came in Sicily, starting in January 1848. Then there was the French Revolution of 1848.

In Dresden, the capital of the Kingdom of Saxony, the people took to the streets asking King Frederick Augustus II of Saxony to engage in electoral reform, social justice and for a constitution.

Ever since the revolutionary events of 1830, Saxony had been ruled as a constitutional monarchy with a two-chamber legislature and a responsible ministry. This constitution continued to serve as the basis of the Saxon government until 1918. However the Revolution of 1848 brought more popular reforms in the government of Saxony. In 1849, other residents left for destinations across the Atlantic. Many natives of Saxony, such as Michael Machemehl, left for Texas where they joined other Germans in creating a German Texan community.

In Bavaria, King Ludwig I lost prestige because of his support for his favourite mistress Lola Montez, a dancer and actress unacceptable to the aristocracy or the Church. She tried to launch liberal reforms using a Protestant prime minister, which outraged the Catholic conservatives of Bavaria. On February 9, the conservative public of Bavaria came out onto the streets in protest. This conservative protest on February 9, 1848 was the first demonstration in that revolutionary year of 1848. However this was an exception among the wave of liberal protests in 1848. The conservatives merely wanted to be rid of Lola Montez. They had no political agenda or demands for change. Nonetheless, liberal students took advantage of the Lola Montez affair to stress their demands for political change in Bavaria.

Because of Prussia's size and economic importance, the smaller Germanic states began to join Prussia's free trade area in the 1820s. Prussia benefited greatly from the creation in 1834 of the German Customs Union (Zollverein), which included most German states but excluded Austria. Starting on May 18, 1848, the Frankfurt Assembly set about trying to find ways to unite the various German states into a single nation and to write a constitution. However, the Assembly proved to be unable to make any resolute decisions and degenerated into a mere debating club. A Prussian border war with Denmark may occur soon and a tensions now simmer with with Austria is imminent over the ownership of Silesia. Norway, Spain and Switzerland are still neutral.

The Dutch, French, British, Russian and Portuguese Empires are fast expanding in in Asia and/or Africa.

The Confederate states condemn some aspects of the Union and a few calls for selection! Remember- slavery was a big issue back then! One of the things at the heart of the conflict was the question of whether Kansas would allow or outlaw slavery, and thus enter the Union as a slave state or a free state. Pro-slavery forces said every settler had the right to bring his own property, including slaves, into Kansas Territory. Anti-slavery "free soil" forces said the rich slaveholders would buy up all the good farmland and work them with black slaves, leaving little or no opportunity for non-slaveholders. An armed conflict in the territory looked imminent!

Republic of Texas is still independent (its' a Althistory site after all) and just managed to hold on (it's 1848, but they are as in the closing days of 1846), The annexation ultimately sparked the OTL American-Mexican War, but this is yet to ATL happen! The great California gold rush began on January 24, 1848; but in this world it is still in Mexico.

The Oregon Treaty of 1846 marked the effective end of the Hudson's Bay Company's Columbia Department.

Locally responsible government established in Nova Scotia and Canada Province in 1848. First Canadian telegraph lines are also laid in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick that year.

The República de Yucatán limps on in Mexico and the Caste War of Yucatán also rumbles on in the Chan Santa Cruz Maya. South America is squabbling amongst its self.

Uruguayan Civil War began in 1839 and still goes on. Juan Manuel de Rosas was Governor of Buenos Aires Province with the 'sum of public power', thus becoming president. The Buenos Aires leader deposed by Rosas in 1829, General Juan Lavalle, also led a series of rebellions with different alliances against Rosas and the Federal Pact until Lavalle's defeat and assassination in 1841. Argentina would be a troubled lad for many years.

Several European ships have charted Australia's coast, but on a few have made short landings after 1845. Most of the land is British claimed and the rest is international assumed to be so, but it's largely not even mapped!

The Russian are after the Khars region of Turkey, Moldavia and parts of northern China, Persia is under Pressure, Afghanistan is a different OTL shape back then and Russia is bullying the Central Asian emirates Khiva and Bukhara.

The Mighty Japanese Empire is just about to form and tensions between the Japanese shogunates and China simmer over Korea and the Ryukyu islands. Japan is thinking of opening up to the West.

King Pagan Min, was the ninth king of the Konbaung dynasty of Burma. He was granted the title of Prince of Pagan by his father Tharrawaddy in August 1842. Pagan Min became king when Tharrawaddy died on 17 November 1846, with the formal title of His Majesty "Pyinsama Thangayana-tin Sri Pawara Vijaya Nanda Jatha Maha Dharma Rajadhiraja Pagan Min Taya-gyi". Pagan Min won the power struggle to succeed his father by having his rival brothers killed. He had married 18 times. His chief ministers Maung Baing Zat and Maung Bhein enriched themselves by fraiming and executing rich subjects.

At this time Africa was still a new land! Oman was trying to keep its informal grip on the Swahili Coast and Anglo-Boer tensions simmered on. Oyo, Abyssinia, Katmawzmbe, Kongo and the Ashanti could shape the region.

Some African nations were regionally potent in 1848 and good gameplay. Try to change history, save an African nation, and thus White colonialism may not win? The game won't be boring if someone plays the Boers!

The Zulu's Chief Mpande, was monarch of the Zulu Kingdom from 1840 to 1872, making him the longest reigning Zulu king, but for the latter part of his reign he was king in name only as His son Cetshwayo became de facto ruler in 1856. He was a half-brother of Shaka and Dingane, who both preceded him as kings of the Zulu. He came to power after overthrowing Dingane in 1840. Mpande himself claimed that he preferred a quiet life and had only become king because he was forced into it by local circumstances.

Style

 * 1) American Civil War technology level.
 * 2) Realism (real life) style.

Mod Rules

 * 1) Mods must be plausible in their mod events and must not target any particular nation.
 * 2) Carving large empires is NOT a cause for mod targeting, unless it is implausible.
 * 3) Mods may be voted out of their modness with a popular vote from any user, supported by 50% all players, if the mod is unfair to players.

​General

 * 1) Every 30 turns, an archive page should be created to store the game's progress. This will ensure that when the game gets very long, people don't have to scroll down for an hour, or wait for 100 images to down-load.
 * 2) Be plausible, so no major ASBness allowed. No hyper-evelopment, no hyper-conquest, no wizards, no little green men from Mars and no nuclear Armageddon (i.e.: Mongolia will not launch Genghis Khan in to space in 1240AD on my watch)!
 * 3) Turns are 1 turn a day. 1 turn = 1 year in the game until 1900 and then 1 turn=6 months in the game after that.
 * 4) Definitely NO sockpuppets!!!
 * 5) I am going to limit the nations, as that when a person gets two countries; they usually neglect the other one.
 * 6) The Golden Rule: Treat others as you want to be treated... is not it! Still, you must be plausible.
 * 7) No one can invade either neutral and mod controlled- Switzerland (since going OTL neutral in the 1840's), The Vatican City (after OTL neatralite independence in 1922), Lichtenstein (since going OTL neutral in the 1860's) or Bhutan (after OTL netralite independence from the UK in 1947).
 * 8) It will take at least 3 years to develop nukes if you are one of the “Big Cheese”. It takes after 4 if you’re not a “Big Cheese” nation, but are well developed industrial nation.
 * 9) No nuke tech before 1944, though nuke research can begin after 1936.
 * 10) No space tech before 1950, though nuke research can begin after 1937.
 * 11) You need a Casus Belli or a carefully faked up one (Hitler did it in OTL to Poland) before declaration of a war.
 * 12) Mods' words are law, unless proven wrong. They can strike out implausibility. However, the reason must be stated and sourced (i.e.-Wikipedia, the BBC, CNN, ITN, NHK, Encyclopedia Britannica, and so on).
 * 13) 1/2 a game year per real day.
 * 14) Research your nation on sites like- Wikipedia, the BBC, CNN, ITN, NHK, Encyclopedia Britannica, and so on.
 * 15) Make a nation's data profile on the game's National Profile page to add some charictor and depth to the game.
 * 16) You can be a rebelling colony or vassal, but you must declare UDI and give reason for declaring it (race, religion, colonial neglect, economics, and so on) Playing as a colony or vassal is forbidden, unless you say you have made it become independent by declaring UDI or rebelling against the colonial powers.
 * 17) As for nuke use, It has been oft abused. Each nation can only let off a maximum of 10 a year with a total yield of 500kt, for each nation per year.
 * 18) Game is archived every 20 years/30 turns.
 * 19) Assassinations and oil embargoes are legitimate weapons of war too.
 * 20) The League of Nations will be formed in 1918 or after our 1st World War, whichever is sooner. We will have international resolutions/stuff here For the selection of impermanent Security Council members and the votes of non-player nations, a mod will decide every turn with Random.org.
 * 21) Don't do drugs while online.
 * 22) Must be registered User (got a named account, not just an IP number) to join.
 * 23) Expansion in extreme climates like Greenland, Niger, Nepal and Amazonia will be very slow due to logistic and climate problems for any wood-be invader.
 * 24) Puppet states, vassal nations and protectorates can be created. Places can be vasselated after 5 years of successful occupation. Vassals can be peacefully annexed after 10 if they are ethnically and religiosity the same as the suzerain state that wishes to annex them, otherwise they will remain as vassals and shall fight formal annexation.
 * 25) New turns start at 21:00:01 UTC.
 * 26) Anyone who is less than a primary power can not use terrorism to destroy heads of government or state, kill top generals or to blow up seats of government.
 * 27) If there is anything else, post on the talk page.

Vassal Rules

 * 1) Unless the vassal can provide real military aid to a country, it cannot be used in an algorithm. For example, OTL Romania and Poland can provide military assistance to the USSR, but OTL Tannu Tuva and Grenada ain't gonna help much, so use your head!
 * 2) Vassals may declare war instead of the actual master nation.
 * 3) Places can be vasselated after 5 years of successful armed occupation.
 * 4) Vassals can be peacefully annexed to their occupier after 10 if they are ethnically and religiosity the same as the suzerain state that wishes to annex them, otherwise they will remain as vassals and shall fight a formal annexation plan.

Technical stuff

 * 1) Maintain the bit rate of the base map image. Saving images in a lower quality format or at a lower bit rate and thus results in graining and other issues that make it difficult to edit the future image. Save as a .PNG as the format tends to maintain the image quality the best. Also, every image editor now has a text tool. Using a paintbrush or pencil tool for labels is both ugly and now unnecessary.
 * 2) Edit the game in Source Mode. Editing in visual mode and creating code problems may result in your edits being undone or full of garbled data.
 * 3) Research your nation. If you choose any country, you should at least Google about it, OTL history, religion, culture, language and so on. ATL can change many thing; but suff like mountains, oil fields and monsoons will stay constant until they are destroyed by man. After you make some back-story events in early moves you can start ruleing it in your way.
 * 4) I keep going to keep a close eye on any troble.

Algorithm
See- War Algorithm (The 1848 game Map Game).


 * War Algorithm: Wars are resolved with the War Algorithm.
 * Note: Trade, infrastructure, blockades and sanctions are also going to play a part in the new war algo.
 * Simple maths: Troop numbers are related to population numbers. The Russian army is currently at ~1,500,000 and the population is at ~145,000,000. The population of Mongolia is ~2,000,000 and the armed forces number 25,000. Get it?
 * International decisions: You can't just say like "I hand ultimatum to Russia, they must join union with Poland or be crushed. They accept", well you can, but I'll delete it. No one, except mods can decide for non-player countries (NPC). Furthermore, mods must explain the decision that was made- i.e. Russia declines offer because of recent wars with your nation.

Terrorist and rebel organisation rules

 * 1) Any nation can create a proxy terrorist (OTL- IRA, etc) or rebel malitia (OTL- UNITA etc) organisation.
 * 2) Terrorists do not give any advantage in terms of algorithms, but rebel armys add 1 point to the side that they are loyal to.

Minnesota becomes a United States territory. The United States Congress passes the Gold Coinage Act allowing the minting of gold coins. Zachary Taylor refuses to be sworn in office on a Sabbath. Urban legend holds that David Rice Atchison, President pro tempore of the United States Senate is President de jure for a single day. Zachary Taylor, the 12th President of the United States of America, takes his oath of office a day later. The St. Louis Fire starts when a steamboat catches fire and nearly burns down the entire city. The first segment of the Pennsylvania Railroad, from Lewiston to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, opens for service.

 * The great California gold rush which began on January 24, 1848 and still continues; but in this world it is still in Mexico.
 * Republic of Yucatán rejoins Mexico, a year later than OTL.


 * British Empire: The BIC takes over the Sikh Empire as in OTL, but does not break it up, so it remains one united princely state under British rule (as long as Sikhs and Moslims are united the more likely the will hate each other than the British). We are merciful and give them autonomy on a par with what Nepal had after the OTL/ATL Anglo-Nepalese war ~30 years earlyer. We watch the Afghans, Ashanti, Boers and Burmese closely. Friendly relations continue with Nepal and Portugal, who we value as allies. We build more factories in British cities and make more efficient cotton farms in British held parts of India.
 * The Boer Republic asks to acquisition the isolated land around OTL Durban, in return the Boer Republic will offer cheap deals on food to the British military stationed in the region and will offer a 5 year NAP.
 * British Empier Diplomacy: Agreed!
 * Prussian Dip: a royal envoy led by Prince Frederick von Hohenzollern (under the influence of his mother, in the hopes of him becoming more liberal) is sent to Britian and it requests permission to remain in britain for the time being.
 * The United States of America: We expand our military and economy. Zachary Taylor win the election in 1948 to become the 12th president in US history. We start to build a railroad that goes through the major cities of our nation. Cotton and tobacco are our major exports. The navy builds more ships. We start to rebuild St. Louis. We try and make peace with the Native Americans allowing the males to take office and to vote.


 * US Territories: We start to industrialize the land. More military outpost are being built up.
 * Liberia: We build up our navy, military, and economy. Farming is best industry.
 * What does that even mean? Most or all of them are not citizens.
 * On a technical note, they legaly need US citzenship and a US pasport before voting.
 * France: The Second French Revoulution ends, leading to the creation of the Second French Republic. The Republic plans to lean more torward it's colonial possessions, as well as become the economic power of Europe. The French are aware of the growing power of Naples, and vows to protect the Italian states from their harm.
 * French Territories: The creation of the Second Republic is celebrated. All territories that can expand inland.
 * Roman Republic: The Roman Republic is now a French vassal, as troops come in to stabilize the nation. Most of the comoution is blamed on Naples, who are suspected of funding the Roman Republic. Naples citizens and trade ships are seized, and are requested back for ransom.
 * Duchy of Modena: We build up our army and economy.
 * Prussia: following an end of the first Slesvig war Prussia is forced to recognize the need for naval power and the need to unite the two parts of the country. Reactionaries lead by Otto von Bismark work to crush the liberal revolution in Berlin and throughout the German States. King Frederick refuses the crown of a united Germany refusin g to accept a crown the gutter. however he makes some concessions with the liberals and revolutionaries creating the first Prussian constitution giving extensive powers to a parliment made up mainly of the landed gentry and capitalists. The Junkers and industrialists start to see each other as natural allies against the prolaterate, and the Conservative party and national liberal party are founded. following the limited success of the needle gun widespread production of the breechloaded rifle begins and military reforms are started in secret with the needle gun and breechloaded cannon being kept as a national secret. Efforts to appraoch the Austrians and Bavarians are made to crush the revolutionaries. mainly out of fear of the spread of revolutionary ideas from 30 years prior.(mod response please also keep in mind otl that the german princes and monarchs support the suppression the move to suppress the revolutionaries and did so). Industrialization in the Rhineland and in Silesia continue as demands for manufactured goods grow and the urban population also begins to grow. Railways are quickly being built as well throughout the country.
 * Bavaria and Saxony wish that Prussia could help them and welcome it's help if any is given. Austria tries to handle it it's self as in OTL because they are to proud to ask for help and that the Russians had already been asked to suppress the Hungarian rebels. Bavaria, Saxony and Austria delight over the death of the liberals, but offer some minor concessions, as in OTL. The Dresden rising and alike finally collapse. Austria dose not make any compromise and crushes the rebels. The Free Imperial City of Frankfurt makes a few more concessions to Liberals about press freedom as OTL. The liberal Frankfurt Press criteria Prussia vearmitly as Frankfurt's leaders tells Prussia to go away agarly. German nationalist elements begin to demand, like OTL, a unified Germany, especially by 1848 and its revolutions. They were conflicted over the best nation-state to accomplish this, a question that became known as the German question. The "Little Germany" (Kleindeutschland) solution favored Protestant Prussia annexing all the German states except Austria, while "Big Germany" (Grossdeutschland) favored Catholic Austria taking control of the separate German states.
 * Prussian Response: Prussian forces continue to suppress the liberals in Prussian territory and troops are supplied to the German princes to help suppress the Frankfurt parliament and to restore power to the nobles and reactionaries.
 * Boer Republic: We begin to reorganize after the great Voortrekk, with settlments sending out couriers to one another to establish communication, and even a road system between the capital, Pretoria, and Bloemfontein beginsm to be built. We begin forcing the Africans off the most fertile land as we use it for farming, but offer deals to buy the land and offer opportunities to still work the land for pay, but such tactics are only partially succesful and as a result many dead Africans are strewn across the landscape. Northern parts of the Republic are still very savage, disease infested, and inhabited by blacks, and so a small regiment is sent to the North to help isolated settlers, fend off blacks, and also expand and enforce the border by 25px.
