Colonisation Map Game

=Rules= These are paramount to the game!
 * The map of the Americas begins as blank.
 * Each user will represent a separate nation, colonising the New World. You can be any country within reason (i.e. not the Arabians because they are nowhere near.)
 * Please be sensible. If your colonial empire gets too big too quickly, then your colonies shall be removed. Prior to 1700, they will simply be wiped off the map. After 1700, the colonies get independence and lose some territory to the natives. Same if you get idiotic and start building spaceships in 1700.
 * Each user takes a turn for their nation. Each turn is one season. e.g. Britain begins settling Newfoundland in spring of 1600, France begins settling Acadia in 1501 etc. etc. etc.
 * You can declare independence if you want to make the USA but you aren't allowed to take your turn for four years to represent the struggle.
 * There is a save name convention. Take the year, the season (can be abbreviated), and put colonis on the end. e.g. File:1600summcolonis.png
 * Do try to write more than just France takes over this, Russia takes over that. Put some flavour in like alliances and stuff.
 * Have fun!

 * Nueva Granada expands to include OTL Antioquia and Chocó.

Most of the French population leave the islands for New France or Inaguas. A small number of the original French settlers stay to learn german.
 * The Prussian Texan colony expands. It is now about half the size of the OTL state of Texas. They officially absorb the territory purchased from the Holy Roman Empire.
 * France, Prussia, and Sundsvall sign the Triple Alliance, a free trade and mutual defence pact.
 * Tierra Del Fuego declares independence from Spain becoming partners in economical, social, and military problems, they pass a peace treaty.


 * Spain refuses the peace treaty. Several divisions cross the Patagonian-Del Fuego border
 * France requests that Spain stop the senseless slaughter.
 * Spain offers this peace treaty: They would give the area of the Río de la Plata in exchange for peace, alliance and 20,000 florins.
 * The Japanise colonise North California and Northern Nevada
 * The Chinise keep colonizing and get Eastern Washington, Idaho, and in North British Columbia.
 * Spain gives freedom of religion, freedom of culture and free lands to colonists, making a population boom, mainly by oppressed Lutherans, Calvinists, Orthodoxes, and Muslims from poor countries. Also, many areas on the OTL Amazon and the OTL Rio de Janeiro Strip are colonized by the necessity of greater lands.

Spring

 * The Prussians expand their Texan colony to encompass the the rest of the OTL state of Texas. They also expand to the Sundvall border to the north. This will be the last major expansion of the Prussian colonial empire. The Prussians primary concern is solidifying control of their colonial possessions, at least for now.
 * Spain colonizes new areas at the East of California, namely OTL Utah, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico and the south of OTL Nevada, namely the Reino de América.
 * France starts building a series of forts near all her larger colonial towns and strategic areas, strengthening the French hold on their lands. France expands her colonies further into Quebec and Ohio. Brazil expands further into the Amazon. France offers a trade union to the Dutch Brazil Colony. France starts her own coffee trade. New France starts growing large numbers of gourd vegetables.
 * The Dutch forestall the union for now. They start taxing the trade coming through the Amazon and the Beloofdezee (Chesapeke Bay), they reap huge amountf of profit.

Summer

 * With their own colonial ambitions sated for now, the Prussians turn their attention to aiding their Dutch allies.
 * The Scottish Nationalists in Great Britain's Delaware colony finally declare independance. The Prussians agree to give them supplies, weapons and training. Sundsvall troops also assist the Scots with their cavalry.
 * France further Expands her territories as she begins to pump up production on cinnamon, corn, cocoa, tobacco, squash, citrus fruit, wheat and now, barley. The French colony of Nouvelle-France commissions a large fishing fleet to be made as well as three Aigle-class fighting schooners.

Fall

 * The French colony of Nouvelle-France halts her expansion into the north to build forts and prepare for the harsher winter, Nouvelle-France does keep expanding to the south, however. The Brazilian colony also expands. A new colony is made on the northeast of South America to assist French trading ships.

Winter
The chinise and japanise merge into one nation called Asia and capture Yukon, alberta, and Montana

Sundsvall expands in all directions, and allies with the Dutch Calvinists in OTL VA.



Spring

 * The Dutch have another prosporous year.
 * Sundsvall buys some land from the Dutch on the Chesapeake in return for trading conscessions.

Summer

 * The Netherlands declares war on Sundsvall for claiming 'bought lands' from Dutch settlers.

Fall
Shawnee and Kiowa warriors fighting for Sundsvall occupy Dutch farmland. Scottish militia, repaying the support Sundsvall gave them during their ongoing revolution (all but a few coastal forts have been taken), attack and take a fort at OTL Baltimore (that was the only area bought by Sundsvall). Sundsvall sues for peace, keeping the territory they took. Dutch Reformed priests in New Netherlands support the peace agreement.

Winter

 * The Dutch governer of the New Netherlands was caught off guard by Sundsvall's quick response to war. He requests an army from the homeland, he knows the king is greedy and won't give up his lands easily. The army would be large enough to easily handle the native Sunsvallians, and it is set to arrive next year in Spring.
 * Sweden, jealous at Denmark's colonial empire, offers to aid Sundsvall in return for trading conscessions (including to supply all of Sweden's grain through Prussian ports). A fleet blockades the Chesapeake, and uses its Prussian ally as a base of ops.
 * Sundsvall troops construct a series of border forts with the Dutch holdouts, and again offers peace in return for their rightfully bought territory.

Spring

 * Genoa starts searching for new lands for farming and colonizes more of territory. The villagers start fishing at the near coasts, and constructing small sailships for exploring.
 * Sundsvall expands northward again, though at a slower rate due to the war. Currently, Sundsvall produces over 70% of the New World's grain, and seeks to solidify this. Border forts are constructed throughout the area.

Summer

 * Spain colonizes the lands between California and Sundsvall, making the Reino de América.
 * At the Battle of the Beloofezee, the weaker Swedish navy retreats from the strong merchant navy of the Dutch West India Company. This allows trade to flow freely for now. With Sundsvall busy building forts and expanding its territory westward, the Dutch fight back and capture most of the under-construction border forts. They are getting closer to the rightfully Dutch fort of Nieuw Rotterdam farther up the Beloofezee, a contingent of the Royal Dutch Navy is dispatched to blockade the port of Nieuw Rotterdam. The governer of Nieuw Nederland requests the Prussians to stop the Sundsvall access of thier ports, they hope that with their past agreements and mutual trade Prussia will favor Nederland over Sundsvall.
 * The Dutch Governor was correct in his assumptions about Prussia. Soon enough Prussian volunteers are in Nieuw Netherlands fighting alongside the Dutch. The Prussian Governor of Albertsland halts all of the Sundsvall grain shipments to Sweden that are currently in Prussian Albertsland territory. They warn the Swedes that if they don't halt the war against the Netherlands, then they will never get a single Sundsvallic grain shipment.
 * The Prussians begin building forts on the Albertsland-Sundvall border.

Fall

 * Genoa builds a town on the new colonized part of the island, the villagers haunt the animals nearby for meat.
 * France completes her construction efforts.
 * The Prussian "volunteers" have succeeded in helping the Dutch regain their lost territory. They begin to push into Sundsvall home territory.
 * The Prussians offer to purchase the French territory southeast of Lake Erie (the OTL states of Maryland, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia.) The price is left to the French to decide, within reason.
 * The Prussians also invade Sundsvall from the newly-fortified northern border of Albertsland. They begin to quickly push Sundsvall back to its core territory, as they had invaded in a vulnerable part of the nation.
 * France agrees to sell the territories to Prussia for an undisclosed amount, most money is diverted to farming but a sizable chunk guys in to funding of the Armee Coloniale Francais, or the French Colonial Army in English, the rest of the money is put into funding the French North American Trading Company. France also further divides her territories into administrative areas this year, so that government can be more widespread. France assures Prussia that they will support them into Sundvalle, as the French desire their vast wheat fields.

Winter

 * Due to the onset of winter, most activity in the current Beloofezee War ceases.
 * The Prussian grain embargo succeeds in making the Swedish bow out of the war. Grain shipments are to be restarted when the war ends.
 * Sundsvall begins to doubt why it should continue to fight, as they have not an ally in the world. They begin negotiations to bring the Beloofezee War to a close.

Spring

 * Sundsvall surrenders, officially ending the Beloofzee War. The leaders of Prussia, Sundsvall the Netherlands and France meet in Neu Konigsburg to sign the peace treaty. The Swedish, who surrendered months ago, are not invited to the conference.

Prussia- Prussia must restart the grain shipments cancelled by the war.

Sundsvall- Sundsvall must revert to their borders as of the Summer of 1610. They must relinquish all territories outside of these boundaries. The northern territories are given to France, and the southern territories are given to Prussia.

Netherlands- The Dutch are absolved of any need to pay damages or refund the purchase price of the disputed land to Sundsvall.

France- France is given the right to settle the prairies north of the shrunken nation of Sundsvall.

Summer

 * Sundsvall offers to purchase the western holdings of the French in return for supplying the grain of the French colonies for 10 years after.
 * France declines, she has no need for grain shipments from a devastated country, she can grow enough on her own.
 * Russia expands it colonies to occupy all of Alaska. The large population there is due to the fact that over this long time people have been not only immigrating but also they have been born here in North America as well.
 * Russian colony adopts the four-crop rotation from the Dutch, but it wont be effective till next year.
 * In Russia proper, the Tsar makes reforms to quell most of the people's problems with unfair labor practices and money(in general that is).
 * The Tsar decides to send more troops to Alasanko(Alaska) and starts in labor to build Forts at the ports and majore cities. these forts are more reminiscent of the Star Forts, in that they have slanted (outward) on the sides and also small holes for them to fire their weapons from; these small holes can be closed.
 * The Tsar establishes a "ALMOST-Tax-Free Zone" in the Alasanko (Alaskan) colony

Fall

 * The Prussians expand their colony on Hispaniola west to the Danish colony's border. They make an agreement to repect the border.

Winter

 * The Prussians offer to purchase the unsucessful Dutch colony of Nieuw Amsterdam in South America. They offer 800,000 gold marks, but the final price is open for the Dutch to decide.
 * The Russians complete 5 Frontier Forts, all of which are around Alexsenkov (OTL Anchorage). After all it is the largest port city so far at nearly 100,000 people; these are Forts made of wood with earth reinforcement & the max troops they can hold is 300, they are only temporary until they get the Star Forts up, then they well be tore down.

Spring

 * Great Britain reluctantly acknowleges the independance of the Scottish Nationalists of Delavare.The newly-formed nation renames itself the Republic of Nova Scotia (or "New Scotland")
 * The Prussians sign control of OTL Maryland over to Nova Scotia in exchange for an alliance with the fledgling nation.
 * The Prussians make a simmilar deal with the Netherlands over their territory in Virginia and West Virginia.
 * The Prussians also refresh their alliances with France and the Holy Roman Empire. They forge their alliances with Nova Scotia, the Netherlands, France and the Holy Roman Empire into a single colonial power bloc.
 * A new Spanish King, Alfonso II, ascends. He is ashamed of the Patagonian War and asks for an alliance between Spain and Tierra del Fuego. He also sends an alliance proposal to Prussia and expands Spain's Amazonic territory.
 * The Prussians accept the Spanish proposal, and bring the Spaniards into their power bloc.
 * The dutch crop-rotation is started this month in Alasanko. With only two forts at 90% completion, both around Alexsankov, the Russian Tsar signs an order to permanently station 30,000 soldiers in the territory. Most of them are cavalierly, as it is easiest to patrol this way.
 * A letter from the Tsar to the emperor of China explains that they would pay 800,000 gold marks for their North American territory and that if this is a deal that Russia well stop never "meddle" in their affairs.
 * A Russian diplomat arrives in Spain (proper), hearing of the multitude of other nations in North America, and ask them for an alliance. This alliance would be a mutual assurance/defense and economic "block" alliance. Trade tax between the two would be lowered and both would agree to OTL Washington State as a new border.
 * The Spaniard Council accepts the Russian offer unanimously.
 * Ships from Alexsankov begin their journey south, full with furs and wood to trade. This also marks the time when a gold rush begins after a man discovers gold on the beach near Nuva (Nome, I think). This makes the population grow fast as more people wish to arrive to get their hands on some of their own 'treasure'.

Summer

 * The Prussians send an ambassador to Moscow to explore the possibility of bringing Russia into their alliance.
 * The Russians ask that if such an alliance be made that OTL Saskatchewan and OTL Nunavut (mainland) down to OTL North Dakota & OTL Idaho be made the official borders. They also state that they well give and receive reduced tax's on all trade. However this well not extend to any other alliance members except for the Dutch and French. (sorry HRE) The borders are the non-nagotionable(?) part of the deal.
 * The ships from Alexsankov arrive in Spanish California
 * Work begins on a road system in (mainland) Russia as well as in Alasanko. These roads well be cobble stone for Alasanko and be more cemeant like for (mainland) Russia. Expected completion time is the year 1630 for (mainland) Russia and 1625 for Alasanko; the road system in Alasanko well continue until they reach the furthest town, this would account for expanding.

Fall

 * HRE offers to sell all its land in the Americas to Prussia. This becomes known as one of the biggest real estate bargains in the history of the world.
 * The Prussians accept the Holy Roman offer. The transition is not as difficult as when they purchased most of the French Bahaman territory, as both of the nations speak the same language (German). The Prussians now have one of the largest colonial empires in the Americas.
 * The previous few seasons saw masses of new French Colonists moving out west to take advantage of the great growing land and this causes France to expand rapidly to the west. Brazilian colonies had also expanded greatly. The French colonies, now probably the richest in the world, begin to create a railway that will connect all her territories and roads as well. The ship yards of many coastal towns have also expanded, allowing more ships to be made, France starts on replacing all weaker mainland French ships with the more effective domestic designs based on the Danish Schooners. French ships are a very common sight in all eastern American port towns and make up a large part of these port town's profits. The French also introduce a completely revolutionary system upon the Americas, the reservation system, this quells any Indian resistance. In an opposite light, many slaves are imported from Africa to work on the rail road, roads and forts.
 * A Russian ambassador arrives in France and ask that they precede no further in their expansion in North America, stating that it is still in talks with Prussia and their allies, which France is one of. If accepted, Russia well see what it can do to colonize the land fast so that it dose not remain empty and so that trad between the two on the North American Continent can be overland.
 * France does not see any reason why Russia should get the rest of the land in North America and establishes her own terms, France's view is that she controls the events of the OTL Canada region. France allows Russia OTL Yukon and northern British Colombia. France offers to buy Neue Wien, Japan's colony, the southern part of China's colony (including part of or all of OTL Vancouver Island) and OTL Nova Scotia as well as the Danish Colony on OTL Hudson's Bay. French starts to become the trading language in the Americas, people who don't know how to speak are at a major disadvantage, although most French Traders speak German as well.
 * A Russian emissary returns with a deal. Everything to the North-West and South West of OTL Yellowknife well be Russian, along with the Chinese colony, ambassador points out that Russian's made an offer almost a year ago (after one more season it I well have to do something as the person is not responding), OTL Alberta well be split into two. The Tsar orders patrols to step up as well as for the Russian army to prepare for war; the Tsar rather not go to war, but if these is not agreeable, then there is no other way.
 * Although with some objections, the Tsar proclaims that however fights for/in the Russian military is granted freedom, no matter greed, race, gender, or surf. This freedom is granted after a two year tour-of-duty. Escaped slaves from other nation flock to Russia in hopes of freedom by joining the military, this bolsters the ranks a huge amount.

Winter

 * The Netherlands declares war on ANOTHER country for claiming Dutch territory, this time, Nova Scotia. They move their navy and in the spring will be in position to surround all the major ports, cutting off trade. They are also set to use portions of their military to ambush and harass Nova Scotian trade on the mainland.
 * An Russian ambassador arrives in the Netherlands and gives them the same deal they gave the Spaniards a couple months back. They also include this time a three-way alliance between the three; this is sent to the Spanish by another ambassador.
 * The spanish accept the offer, and the alliance with Russia becomes a bloc. Alfonso also sends a colonist convoy north, where it finds the coast of OTL Greenland and settles there.
 * The Prussians move soldiers into Nova Scotia and warn the Dutch that they would not tolerate agression. They are posed to invade Nieuw Haarlem from all directions if the Dutch invade Nova Scotia.
 * The Prussians also maneuver a fleet bearing soldiers to the coast of the Dutch colony in South America. For declaring war on an ally, the Prussians make certain that the Dutch lose everything.
 * Spain's Armada Invencible goes to Prussian lands to warn Prussia not to attack the Dutch, or both Russia and Spain will intervene. Thousands of soldiers are placed on the Prussian border.
 * The Tsar sends a notice to his commanders saying simply, "Don't let these enemy's take a single foot on Russian soil and protect the allies. May god have mercy on our soul". This is followed by orders to send to brigades to Spanish California and to send two more army groups into Alasanko.
 * By now, most Star Forts are done, with the only exception being 3 fort's at 95% each. These are on the frontier lands of Alasanko near supply towns.
 * Austria, Spain's ally, which has the same royal family as his, masses troops in the Saxon-Prussian border after Saxony gives Austria military access. Spain also masses troops on the New World.
 * The Prussians promise that as long as the Dutch do not invade Nova Scotian territory, they will not invade the Dutch colonies. The Prussians also note that the Nova Scotians are in the same alliance as the Dutch, and that the Prussians are attempting to punish the Dutch for this betrayal of the alliance's trust.
 * The Prussians speak the truth, but it is pointed out the the Nova Scotians did un-lawfully expand into Netherlands territory.
 * Polish allow for the Russians to move throw there territory and also amass troops, ready in the un-pleasant event of war.

Spring

 * The Prussians cancel their deal with the Dutch, and take back the the territory they gave to the Dutch. The Prussians explain that they want nothing more to do with the traitorous Dutch.


 * The Dutch do not want a full scale war. The majority of the population in southwest Nova Scotia, up the Beloofezee, and in North Brazil, in French territory is Dutch. They clamour for unity with the homeland. The governer sees this and offers an agreement with Nova Scotia and France, although the terms are still undecided; all the governer can hope for is to gain most of the Dutch population back without angering the unjust Prussians and French.
 * With Prussian support, Sundsvall moves troops through Prussia right near the border with the Dutch. Sundsvall also renews their alliance with the French and Prussians.
 * France IMMEDIATELY asks all participating countries to meet in Port Du Nord in New France to discuss the borders of all the countries in the Americas. France does not wish for conflict but in the event that Russia, Spain or the Netherlands attack she will join on Prussia's. It should be reminded that not only is France the world's dominant superpower (with the HRE, in which Prussia has tons of influence being the second strongest by a considerable margin over the next strongest country, Russia). France's population dominates with 20 million people along with Prussia/HRE at 15 million with Russia having 14 million, Spain's lower population of 8 million and the Netherlands laughable, comparatively, 1.5 million people. France hopes that these countries could avoid a war through these discussions.
 * The colony of Neue Wien votes to become part of New France because of the majority of the population there being French. France waits to see if Russia will accept her latest border proposal so that she can begin expanding again.
 * Haha, who gave you the power to suddenly decide how much people live in my territory? 20 million people, THAT is laughable. Excuse me for playing by the rules, hey let's all punish the guy who follows the rules.
 * ^take it to the talk page, please.
