Look Out, Sir! Revised (Map Game)



General
The year is 1912, before World War I. Can you change world history forever? You can certainly try.

The Old Game
The original Look Out, Sir! was based in an alternative World War 2, in which Italy had took the Balkans, and North Africa by themselves. This lead to Germany's men being stockpiled for Operation: Barbarossa, and quickly defeating the Soviets. The Japanese also won Midway, keeping their fleet intact.

The game began fine, but a war in South America resulted in multiple countries from around the world fighting for Brazil. The USA (somehow) kept losing all battles in the Pacific, and had rebellions popping up everywhere. The inactiveness of some players and implausibility of others made the game unplayable, and died about a week in.

Rules

 * 1) No implausibility. Ask mods what is plausible and what is not.
 * 2)  Each turn is a half year.
 * 3) Turns begin at UTC 00:00
 * 4) Don't edit past posts without permission from a moderator.
 * 5)  Resistance in countries will be determined with Random.org. A person must roll between 1-10. A 5 or below results in revolts, and a 10 or above results in no revolts. I want to stress this rule as it was completely ignored last game.
 * 6)  You may only control one nation, but may release nations as puppet states.
 * 7) Puppets act as allies, and must help the nation they are a puppet of at all times.
 * 8) Moderators have to ability to do plausible, and fair events for any and every country.
 * 9) Moderators decide what technology countries can research. This depends on the country's current economical state in game, and technological state in game and in our timeline.
 * 10)  You can not switch countries unless yours has been annexed.
 * 11) The game ends in the current year.
 * 12) New players can start the year they joined.
 * 13)  A page for your nation is strongly recommended. Be sure to include military strength and population count.
 * 14) Moderators determine what is plausible and what is not.
 * 15) Moderators designated as mapmakers are the only ones allowed to edit the map.
 * 16) Maps will be made when requested.
 * 17)  A nation historically with one side will stay with that side until they choose to leave by the minimum year of 1943. Leaders cannot leave. Example: Italy can leave the Axis beginning in 1943, but Germany may not. If one side is defeated, the winning side will determine the outcome of the defeated side.
 * 18) Colonial empires of nations conquered will become apart of the country who conquered the home country. Example: France conquers Netherlands, Dutch colonies become apart of France.
 * 19)  Nations classified as 'major power's' cannot be taken without a vote from the moderator staff whether or not a player can take it. Moderators are an exception to this rule.
 * 20)  You can only build up two of these things at a time: infrastructure, military, economy.

1914
Charles Lindbergh fly's the first airplane flight across the Atlantic, as nations are finding interest in planes for warfare

'''With racism rising in the southern parts of the USA, smaller groups of civil rights groups appear in the northern areas, disgusted by the intolerance towards the African-American ethnic group. Although numerous, they do not achieve much. '''

More Mod Events...


 * Argentina We improve northern and central infrastructure slightly. We hold a urban literacy campaign. In 1914, Argentina's economy was based on agricultural exports, mainly of grain and beef. Sheep and cattle are adored as a commodity and we expand ranches. Grain is also expanded slightly. We say we don't want to get involved in any non-Latin American wars and go neutral about the European rivalry.


 * Brazil: We ask the Ottomans for a alliance since they have most of the world's oil. We also ask Italy for an alliance since they control most of the trade in the Med sea. Lastly we ask Russia for an alliance. Our nation increases out military and navy. Also we upgrade our ports. Timber and Agriculture are our top industries. The border control increases it's troops on our southern border, just incase something happens. We look up to the three nations above us, we want their land.


 * Ottoman Empire Dip: We decline the alliance with Brazil because an alliance with Russia will deeply oppose the Ottoman views.
 * Ottoman Empire: We decide that we should drill for oil in the coast of the Arabian Sea. The Sultan announces that if we would like to extend our sphere of influence to Northern Africa, we will have to get them to oppose their current occupiers. The Sultan also says that any rebellions on the Arabian Peninsula are unacceptable, and will be punished. We offer a defence pact to the German Empire, as we both have similar interests in economic and diplomatic views.
 * German Dip: We accept the defence pact.
 * Brazilian Dip: I was looking for a trade alliance.
 * OE Dip We agree
 * United States of America: We begin building ships fro the navy, but the army is not improved much, but new rifles are issued. We declare neutrality in any overseas crisis, and begin building housing for many people in the nation. Jim crow laws continue in the South, and many southern whites feel that blacks are inferior to whites. In the North, however, there is much sympathy for the blacks. Charles Lindbergh is praised as a hero by the US citizens, and debate begins over which new state should be made: Alaska or Puerto Rico. People begin moving east into California and other areas.
 * Venezuela:  The white/pardos social divide is still in place, and little effort is made to improve the poverty and illiteracy of the nation. General and President Juan Vicente Gómez focuses instead on exploiting the country's resources for his friends, family and business partners. We begin to use the widespread telegraphic system in Venezuela to curtail the possibility of caudillo uprisings. Oil exploration projects that began in 1907/08 continue, with small wells popping up in few locations, but no major discoveries are made.
 * Russia: It is decided to invest more into the Navy, to match those of German and Great Britain.
 * Austria-Hungary: We work on our infrastructure, especially in Bosnia and Croatia. Multiple Catholic churches are built in Bosnia. The nation invests in the wood industry and fishing industry in the coastal regions, thus working on the economy.
 * Great Britain: As tensions in Europe rise, we begin to look elsewhere for alliances. The US is offered a NAP, and Brazil, China and Argentina are offered full alliances. We encourage the other Entente nations to do the same (France and Russia). MIlitary and infrastructure are built up, with particular focus on our navy. We call upon the Irish rebels to the negotiation table, should they come, the are granted a final offer of Domain of the Empire. We call France and Russia to the negotiation table about what to do in the event of war with Germany. In a separate meeting, we ask Japan what to do about Germany's Pacific colonies. As tensions run high in Ireland, the Royal army moves in to occupy Belfast and Dublin. Fearing that Britain's attention is too far spread, the King enters talks to help alleviate this issue.
 * British Raj: As a push for greater self rule continues. The British construct naval bases in Southern India to deal with piracy. The military is improved and trade is increased, allowing for a larger economic development in the coming age. The training of irregulars/recruits begins.
 * Australia (all colonies on the island):  Naval bases are constructed in the north in the event of war with Germany. Infrastructure improves.
 * New Zealand: Naval bases are constructed on the northern islands in case of war with Germany.
 * Bhutan and Nepal: Military/Economy Improve.
 * South Africa: Construction of new buildings improves the infrastructure. An army of 80,000 are stationed in case of rebellion. Military improves.
 * North and South Rhodesia: Military and economy improve.
 * Domain of Canada, Belize, and other North American Colonies ( Canada is still open if one desires): Away from Many of the tensions of Europe and the Pacific, these colonies improve infrastructure and economy, increasing trade across the empire.
 * Newfoundland: Serving as the gateway for British North American trade, The UK constructs military bases to protect British economic interests. Economy improves, as foreign and domestic  trade is common in these ports.
 * Gold Coast and Sierra Leon: Military/Economy improve.
 * Nigeria; Military and infrastructure improve. Military Bases are constructed along the border with German Cameroon.
 * Kenya and Uganda: Military and infrastructure improve. Military Bases are built along the German Colonial border.
 * Sudan and Somaliland: Military and Economy improve.
 * Hong Kong: Military and economy improve. Naval bases are constructed to protect British Interests.
 * British Oman, Kuwait, and Qatar: Military and Economy improve.
 * Argentine D: We politely refuse the alliance and stay neutral, but the British are offered 20% cheaper than normal beef meat if they agree to invest in some new meat processing works in the provinces of Chubut and Santa Fe. We offer a NAP to Brazil, Bolivia, the USA and the British until Europe calms down again.
 * British Dip: We accept the NAP, but will only accept the beef offer if this is a deal exclusive to Britain.
 * Argentine D: Agreed.
 * Liberia was an American client state, not a British colony in 1914.
 * My bad, meant for that to say Sierra Leon


 * Siamese D.: We request to purchase the Shan states so that we can be reunited with our countrymen.
 * British Dip: the King politely declines this offer but is willing to reconsider this offer in the future. The British do ask for an alliance and offer to aid in Naval development if the alliance is accepted.
 * Siam agrees.


 * Siam: The King, perceived as too foreign-influenced and weak, loses control of the government as a party of reactionary army officers seizes control. They order elections, write a constitution, and create a legislature, resulting in the election of the newly formed Social Democratic Party. The king remains as a figurehead. Siam begins to aggressively modernize its economy, constructing industry and transportation routes to increase the country's economic capacity. The country modernizes quickly, following the policies of the post-Meiji Japanese government to become a modern, industrialized economy. As a result, industrial capacity triples. With its new wealth, Siam requests to purchase the rebellious and poor colony of Laos from France. Mods?
 * Completely plausible, as France had trouble controlling Indo-China, and wasn't really in the best economic state at this time. I'd like for a second mod opinion. SwankyJ (talk) 22:28, April 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * Too much land I think, but if the war starts I think France would want to sell it.
 * Laos was really poor; it only produced 1% of Indochina's exports. In 1910 I think there were only 600 French in the country.Krasnoyarsk (talk) 22:45, April 15, 2014 (UTC)
 * They Won't give it up until they need some money in the Great War. Hasn't started yet, pretty soon. 

'''It was mostly humid jungle with only a few roads and towns. It was very under-developed back then.Whipsnade (talk) 00:14, April 16, 2014 (UTC)'''
 * Germany: We continue to produce more naval ships to match the Royal Navy of Britain. The army continues to expand.

1914.5
WONT BE HERE BY 1:00 UTC PUTTING UP EVENTS AND MY MOVE

''' The Tampico Affair occurs. The United States occupies Veracruz. Mexico cuts diplomatic relations with the United States due to the Ypiranga Incident  and the Tampico Affair. The Mexican Revolution begins shortly afterward. '''

''' The Home Rule Act of 1914 is presented to the British Parliament. '''

''' Franz Ferdinand, Archduke of Austria and his wife Sophie are assassinated in Sarajevo by young Serbian nationalist Gavrilo Princip. '''

' The RMS Empress of Ireland'' sinks. It is the largest Canadian maritime accident in peacetime with over 1,000 lost. '''

'''For the record, please look on Wikipedia for major events. Some events may be implausible due to in-game reasons so make sure to check the game if there is anything regarding it. Thank you. Blocky858 (talk) 02:30, April 16, 2014 (UTC)'''

'''Thinking about it, I haven't stated that Franz goes to Sarajevo. How could he be assassinated then? Sky Green 24 10:47, April 16, 2014 (UTC)'''

Exactly my point ^ Blocky858 (talk) 22:52, April 16, 2014 (UTC)
 * Ottoman Empire We continue to build our military and our economy. The sultan finds interest in planes for warfare and messaging. So he contacts British and German plane building company's for parts. We send troops to the the colonial rebellions to defeat them and to keep them under control. SECRET: We ask AH and Germany for an alliance.
 * ​German Dip: We agree to the alliance.
 * Austria Hungary Dip: We also agree.
 * Argentina:The OTL 1912 political- Law 8871, known as the "Sáenz Peña Law", comes in to force in 1914. It reforms the Argentine electoral system, making the vote secret, universal and compulsory for males over 18; so effectively ended fraudulent rule of the nation's oligarchy. The cut price beef deal with the British is honored.They are toto upgraded our few meat processing units in Chubut, Santa Fe and Entre Ríos Provinces as part of the deal. Tucumán province's roads are improved slightly. Argentina is concerned over any future break down of commerce or any raids on it's beef and wheat industries.The year long work starts on 4 lesser sloops of war and 2 monitors to patrol our coastline for the time being. Long term neutrality is to be maintained. They are based on plans akin to-

 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hu%C3%A1scar_(ship)
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMVS_Cerberus
 * United States of America: We continue to maintain neutralty, and attempt to find a peaceful solution to the Ypiranga Incident. Naval expansion continues, and we build 2 new capital ships, the USS Michigan and USS Jefferson. Both are deployed for the atlantic, and we begin being more open about trade. Immigration from other nations sees the Ku Klux Klan begin gaining support in the South, and mounting raids upon Immigrants in the US. The federal Government tries to keep the peace, but it is half hearted. We begin a rescue operation for the passengers of the RMS Empress of Ireland, and search for survivors. Many come to the US, were we begin providing homes for them until Britain can supply proper aid.
 * Austria-Hungary: We work on our military and economy.
 * Venezuela: We offer our full sympathies and respects to the victims of the RMS Empress of Ireland sinkage and the attack on the Austro-Hungarian Archduke. Our President would be happy to attend Ferdinand's funeral representing Venezuela. An economic plan is written up to cancel all outstanding Venezuelan international debts, we plan to reach this goal by 1918, meanwhile the economy improves slowly but surely thanks to new literacy programs across the country. However we are untrusting of labour unions, and we prohibit companies from building oil refineries on Venezuelan soil. Companies begin to favour the nearby Dutch islands of Aruba and Curaçao for oil exploration as a result.
 * Argentine D: We offer our full sympathies and respects to the victims of the RMS Empress of Ireland sinking. 
 * Siam: The economy continues to modernize as the country industrializes. Economic reforms include a unified modern currency, banking, commercial and tax laws, stock exchanges, and a communications network. The new Bank of Siam stabiizes the economy and provides loans and the money for the continuation of a massive industrial expansion. Manufactured goods production increases, including weapons and military goods. Siam begins to produce modern rifles and guns based on foreign models, although they are still inferior in many cases. A modern education system is put in place using the government's new tax resources for all young people, while thousands of students are sent overseas to learn new skills.
 * Brazil: We start to make our own version of what we think a tank looks. Venceslau Bras accepts the trade agreement with the Ottomans. We give the Ottomans timber and food and in return they give us oil. Our navy starts to build ships. With an assassination happening in Serbia, we increase our military just incase something happens. Weapons are being mass produced in our factories. We send medical aid and weapons to Austria-Hungary, after what happened to their leader.


 * Great Britain:  Military     is built up, along with infrastructure. in light of the recent assassination and fearing a war between the major powers of Europe call for a meeting in London or, if permitted, Brussels to discuss the issues of a war between major powers. With careful deliberation, the Irish state is granted Domainship within the empire. Naval build up remains a chief concern of the empire, though the Navy remains the strongest in the world, rivaled closely by Germany.
 * British Raj:  Economy and Infrastructure are built up.
 * Domain of Canada: Economy and Infrastructure are built up.
 * Newfoundland: Economy and Military are built up. Naval bases are constructed.
 * Gold Coast and Sierra Leon: Economy and Infrastructure are built up.
 * Nigeria: Military bases are constructed through out the nation in case of German attack. Economy is built up.
 * Egypt: Work on Military and Economy begins.
 * Sudan: Economy and Infrastructure improve.
 * Kenya and Uganda: MIlitary bases are constructed in case of German attack.
 * South Africa: Military and Economy are built up.
 * North and South Rhodesia: economy and infrastructure are built up.
 * Boherlands: Economy and Infrastructure are built up.
 * Oman: Military and economy are built up.
 * Kuwait: Military and Infrastructure are built up.
 * Qatar: Military and infrastructure are built up.
 * Hong Kong:  Military and economy are built up
 * Bhutan and Nepal:Economy and infrastructure are developed (MASSIVE CHANGE HERE)
 * Australia: Military and infrastructure are built up. Naval bases are constructed to protect the colony
 * New Zealand: Same as above.
 * Bahamas: Economy and infrastructure are built up
 * Belize and other Caribbean colonies: Infrastructure and Economy are built up.
 * Guyana: Economy and Military are built up.
 * France: The Military is rapidly modernised, and a new, camouflaged Uniform is designed. We begin training exercises, and following a test in which we fire a huge barrage of Shells at trenches, and are disheartened to discover that nothing happens to the trench. We also recognise that should it come to war, we will need the women to take a pivotal role in factory work, so begin training them in special classes. A new tactic is thought up, to use Artillery better; the rolling barrage. We decide to send a diplomat to London to discuss fears of war.
 * Germany: With war near in Europe, we look back on old ideas submitted to the War Ministry to see if there was anything that could be of use in a war. We review the idea for an armored, light, three man vehicle with a revolving turret, submitted by Gunther Burstyn in 1911. We approve it, and start making plans to build it. We continue building new naval ships, wishing to have a fleet equal to or greater than the Royal Navy. We start conscripting more men for the army, as it seems war is imminent.
 * British Dip: We request you attend a meeting in London in hopes to calm tensions
 * German Dip: We accept to come to London.

 * Argentina: We improve northern infrastructure slightly and hold a urban literacy campaign. Sheep and cattle are adored as a commodity and expand ranches. The Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires province and Tucumán province's roads are improved slightly. The port of La Boca on the Matanza River is upgraded slightly. Beef production goes up due to the new processing plants. Buenos Aires province strategic infrastructure such as armament stores, sewers, food processing plants, railways and telegraph lines are upgraded notably. Low level copper prospecting occurs in San Juan Province. A pilot-less hot air balloon is launched across the coast near La Boca port, wafts over our 2 brand new Rivadavia class battleships and is blasted out of the skies with navel cannon fire. 12 out of 15 allotted shells expended, but number 12 did hit it. We were concerned that airplanes and hot air balloons might be weaponized by the Europeans and/or the USA in a future conflict. We watch the Mexican civil war with concern. Experts are fascinated by the new image of Pluto.
 * Argentine Diplomacy: We invite the British in to financing a new railway that links Buenos Aires Docks to the city of Buenos Aires. As payment, we will let British merchant ships use both it and the dock as they please, without customs payment, mooring fees, tariffs and so on. A 20% cheaper than normal leather and sheepskin deal is also offers exclusivity to the British. A non aggression pact is offered to Uruguay, Bolivia and Brazil. Mods decide for NPC Uruguay and Bolivia.
 * Serbia: We build up are military and begin to build fortifications on the border with Austria-Hungary.
 * Austria-Hungary: Due to pressure issued by the Croatian province, a reformation of Austria-Hungary is debated. The government is proposed to create a federalized nation, allowing equal rights to all citizens This federal idea is highly supported by the numerous Slavic ethnicities. Due to earlier acts of our neighbours, we raise funds going to the military and improve the infrastructure in regions such as Vojvodina and Bosnia.
 * Venezuela: The economy continues to improve, with literacy programs ongoing and unemployment falling as the state explores how to use and benefit from the large petroleum deposits of the nation, however companies and foreign investors are still rejected in favour of the President's family and friends. Malaria is the greatest killer in Venezuela, and with living conditions not improving much, we begin to research treatments. Community participation and health education strategies promoting awareness of malaria (as well as increased availability of mosquito nets) also occurs, and we call on other nations with malaria and mosquito problems to help in finding effective treatment and cure methods. The navy is slightly improved as we are disturbed by the ongoing conflicts in Mexico.
 * Ottoman Empire We build up our military. The Sultan says that we will contain the plague, saying that we will kill them our chemical weapons program. SECRET: ' We ask Venezuela if they would like to join the central powers.

Sorry was in a rush


 * Brazil:  With Venezuela join the central powers, we join them and do the same . The first prototype of the Brazilian tanks are made. We call it the AF-016. Our navy continues to to build more ships in mass production. We continue yo give more medical aid and weapons to Austria-Hungary. We make Serbia an enemy of our nation. More jobs are being created in our factories with the mass production of military stuff being made. We increase education and encourage people to get an education. Equal rights are given to all people of the country.

'''Implausible. Ottoman Brazil relations were kinda rough'''

For the record, Venezuela hasn't joined the Central Powers

You don't have the industrial capability to build tanks that quick, or design them.
 * British Empire: We request that the Ottoman Empire, Russia, and Austria-Hungary attended the Conference of London, set to take place late this year. Military and navy are built up to keep ahead of Germany. Economy improves as well.

Mods decide for NPC Uruguay and Bolivia.
 * Accepted.
 * Germany: We produce a prototype of the so called 'tank' idea. The tank is a one-ton, four wheel track, rectangular vehicle, with a single rotating turret. The gun is more or less a 20mm cannon. The crew is four: a driver, gunner, loader, and co-driver. It has a top speed of 60 kph, similar to some cars. The armor is thin at 15 mm. It is named the GAT-01. We begin producing more airplanes, balloons, and zeppelins for the Imperial German Flying Corps. We continue to produce naval ships and continue to conscript.
 * United States: We remain neutral but we are building up our military. We send aid to people recovering from the Lassen Peak eruption in California.
 * Siam: Institutes conscription, expanding the military and creating a large pool of reservists. Siam begins putting aside a portion of its revenue into an emergency fund to prepare for large expenditure in the future. The army is equipped with modern rifles, machine guns and artillery modelled after foreign weapons. The government also lays down several hundred new transports and dozens of destroyers.

 * Argentina: We also begin to research malaria treatments. Community participation and health education strategies promoting awareness of malaria and make the increased availability of mosquito nets in the malaria hit northern provinces of Formosa, Jujuy, Misiones and Salta. We have a whale of a time using Southern Right Whales to make industrial grade soap with. Low level copper prospecting occurs in San Juan Province and Chubut Province. A low level oil drilling operation of our own occurs at Comodoro Rivadavia and looks promising. We start building a final ship base on the ARA Almirante Brown (1880) and 4 whalers of our own. Malargüe town, the home of Argentine garlic has its roads slightly upgraded, as does the town of Comodoro Rivadavia. The army is equipped with modern rifles, machine guns and artillery modelled after foreign weapons. We regret to hear about the tram crash and ferry sinking in the USA.


 * Argentine diplomacy:
 * 1/We offer the USA the rights to prospect for and set up 2 oil wells at Comodoro Rivadavia in Chubut Province. In payment Argentina would like 5 America Steamwhalers similar this Canadian model.
 * 2/The British are offered 10% price cut lamb supply in exchange for 5 America Steamwhalers similar this Canadian model.
 * 3/The French are offered 10% cut price garlic and potatoes in exchange for some technical help on our Andean Mountain roads.


 * United States Diplomacy: We accept the trade offer to set up 2 oil wells in exchange for 5 steamwhalers


 * Ottoman Empire: Roads and water wells are upgraded in western Anatolia, Damascus and Baghdad. Whilst due to the ATL fact there is no ATL war, and so no OTL/ATL mass call up, which now never lead to the [siege of the ethnically Arminian and anti-war city of Van]; ethnic tensions still traditionally bubble with ethnic Armenians, Arabs, Greeks and Kurds. The idea of giving the remote and rebellious Mutawakkilite Kingdom of Yemen and the Kurdish rebels of Diyarbekir Vilayet and Mosul city a small piece of local religious and trade authority is mooted. The hostile Saudi Sultanate of Nejd is to be watched closely. The army is equipped with modern rifles, machine guns and artillery modelled after foreign weapons. We attend the London Conference.


 * *Ottoman Diplomacy: A mutual protection treaty like the OTL the is offered To Bulgaria and also the friendly Rashidi Emirate of Ha'il. An Ottoman olive oil for Bulgarian sheep produce trade deal is offered. Mods to decide player-less NPC Bulgarian and Rashidi response.

In OTL the Rashidi Emirate of Ha'il was pro-Ottoman since it was fiercely anti-Saudi Najd and waned a fellow Muslim allies to help defeat the Saudis.
 * Spain: After hearing of a possible new strain of influenza possibly developing within its borders, the Spanish Government moves to quarantine the sick, even if they only have the common cold, for anyone could carry the flu and not know it, then unknowingly pass it on. Development of malaria treatments also begin, especially in advance of a secret plan to retake their old Caribbean colonies, especially Cuba. They know if they are to be victorious, Spain must develop aircraft. After looking over the country's industry, the decision is made to convert the entire rail network to standard gauge in order to be able to connect with the rest of the European rail network. The factories also receive new technology, with an emphasis on mass production and safety. Fearing an attack from France to be inevitable after an unconfirmed report of French spies getting wind of the Caribbean Stratagem, Spain requests an alliance with Germany.
 * North Morocco: Additional troops and ships are sent to fortify against a possible strike by a local anti-Spanish warlord.
 * German Dip: We accept the alliance.
 * Siam: Siam continues to expand its military. many of the ships laid down last year are completed, giving Siam lots of short-range transports and some destroyers. Two cruisers are put under construction. The reserves keep training, expanding Siam's pool of prospective soldiers, while about a quarter of the government's budget is put into the emergency fund. Siam looks on the repression of its ethnic brethren in the Dutch colonies in Indonesia with dislike, especially the massacres and repression in the Acehnese Sultanate. Worried of suffering the same thing, Siam decides to act preemptively and launches a surprise attack on Dutch Borneo, using its transports to rush its troops across the straits before the stronger Dutch fleet can respond. It sends about 20,000 men to scout the Dutch positions before attacking out of the jungle. The Dutch, restricted mainly to the coastal strip, are taken by surprise. Helped by local Malays and Sea Dayak pirates, Siamese troops rout the unprepared Dutch in a battle at Pontianak, taking the city, and force the retreat or surrender of the surviving Dutch, who are treated humanely (although some are executed by vengeful headhunters). Siam sends an expedition to explore Marie Byrd Land in Antarctica.
 * British Dip:We wish to confirm our alliance
 * Venezuela: The Bolivar Coastal Field is discovered, 35 miles long and estimated to be the largest oil field in South America. In response, the government begins to offer concessions to Venezuelan businesses allowing them to drill for oil although taxes are heavy and labor unions heavily regulated. The fight against malaria continues but with no significant breakthroughs, although rates of infection are noticeably in decline thanks to the ongoing awareness programs and mosquito net rollouts. We thank Argentina for their help in researching a treatment.
 * Siamese D: Offers Venezuela a trade pact
 * Venezuelan D: We accept this offer.
 * British Dip: WE offer and alliance and in exchange we will acknowledge Venezuela's claim to the WESTERN HALF of Guyana.
 * Brazil:  Since our first tank prototype was a success we build more in our factories. We ask to join the side of the central powers. In the Amazon rain forest, we drill for oil. A new program is made for flying and the making of airplanes. The first prototype plane is being built. More ships are being made for our navy. The military drafts more troops for our boarder control team. More people are getting an education in technology. Just in case we get hit with malaria, You already have it , we also begin to research malaria treatments. Community participation and health education strategies promoting awareness of malaria and make the increased availability of mosquito nets.With the Military of Argentina equipping themselves with modern rifles, machine guns and artillery modelled after foreign weapons, we do the same. We now watch Argentina very carefully. We make prototype versions of the rifle, machine guns and other weapons.
 * Again, no industrial capability to do something massive like that. Also, Brazil isn't able to get such a massive boost in college education, especially technologic areas. And making treatment against malaria "just in case" is pretty asb. 
 * Brazil today is now about 40% major risk and 60% minor risk of malaria . He has a reason to use malaria nets, but it would be a lot more prevalent back in 1915. A full health campaign is needed, not just an odd bit 'just in case'. 
 * Argentine D: We put forward plans for Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and Chile to form an economic and trading block in the agricultural sector. The block would try and get the best deals for local exporters off of European importers and start undercutting non member rivals with cheaper exports from member states..
 * Venezuelan D: We are disappointed that we have been excluded from this plan, which we believe would pave the way for closer integration between the countries of Latin America and help us to avoid tensions and conflict akin to that of Europe.
 * Argentine D: Venezuela can join if they wish to.
 * German Dip: We accept Brazil into the Central Powers.
 * Venezuelan D: Venezuela joins the South American trade bloc.
 * Germany: With the GAT-01 being mildly successful in military tests, specifically reconnaissance and anti-infantry, we decide to begin production of 100 models. We keep making new ships and planes for the armed forces. We also keep conscripting. We begin testing new rifles and machine guns for use. We send two bomber zeppelins over the Netherlands and Belgium. We begin to mobilize our armies. We begin developing the military and economy. The 65th Infantry regiment marches from Cologne into east Liege, occupying the German-speaking communities. The action is confirmed to be an actual order given by the General staff. They say they wish to protect the ethnic German population.
 * British Dip: We ask that you remove soldiers from Belgium, a historically neutral nation
 * Argentine D: We ask for a formal alliance and a trade deal with with Venezuela,France, USA and/or the British. We reassure Brazil we do not want to cause them harm.
 * British Dip: Accepted.
 * United States Diplomacy: We accept the formal alliance with Argentina.
 * Venezuelan D: We agree to the alliance and trade deal. Amidst the revolution in Mexico, conflict in the West Indies, and Belgium fiasco we propose joint military training exercises between our newly allied nations. We also assume the UK will respect our territorial claims in western Guyana as part of this alliance.
 * British Empire: We seek to Confirm alliances Japan.
 * ​Great Britain: We are displeased with the Current war, as we believe that it violates the neutrality of Belgium. Military and Economy are built up. The Royal Navy is mobilized, ready to defend Great Britain if needed. The Conference of London is postponed indefinitely due to the ongoing war in Belgium. Soldiers are stationed on the island in case of war.

Concessions are offered to Siamese and Argentinian companies looking to use the Bolivar Coastal Field for oil. We continue literacy programs in urban areas, helping to drive up employment and the economy with the oil companies. Malaria awareness programs and research into treatments continues.

 * Argentina: The Radical Party Hipólito Yrigoyen wins the election. He makes historic OTL/ATL improvements in factory conditions, regulation of working hours, compulsory pensions, and the introduction of a universally accessible public education system. The ruling elite think he’s a fool, but the public love him. Argentina starts pushing the social envelope slowly to the dismay of it’s neighbors.

The Dutch rase 10,000 men and send them to defend the Dutch East indies.
 * Russia: the economy is expanded. Austria-Hungary is asked to transfer the regions of East and West Galicia to Russia.
 * Federal States of Greater Austria (FSGA): Rejected, due to recent federalization of the region and increased autonomy.
 * Spain: With standardization of the railways well underway, a review of necessary industries is undertaken for any future total war situations due to the deteriorating stability of Europe. Meanwhile, the sick are lined up and shot to prevent the spread of influenza. Although the move is met with great disdain, King Alfonso XIII gives this statement in a national speech: "Would you rather have 100 or so people killed to prevent the spread of flu, or witness the deaths of millions of people worldwide because of US?" The Purge of the Sick is over in a few hours, and many Spanish scientists are put to work to create flu treatments, including the invention of a new treatment known as vaccine, to be injected into a vein with a syringe. On the military front, Spain opens up the first of many facilities known as war factories, disguised as steel mills. These factories are to develop vehicles and weapons, and build them as well. We request copies of the plans for the GAT-01 from our German allies. We will pay generously for them.
 * North Morocco: An uprising by the natives led by an anti-Spain warlord is crushed with little resistance. In response, Spain reinstates the Conquistadors as a military police unit for its colonial possessions.
 * Spanish Sahara: Troops are sent in response to a small threat coming from a tribe seeking to drive out the "Spanish warlords". It fails, and the entire tribal village near the capital of Spanish Sahara is burned to the ground by Conquistadors, reminiscent of the conquests in the Americas.
 * France declares war on Spain.
 * Germany: We decide to support Bulgaria. We are against the Austro-Hungarians handing over Galicia to the Russians. The GAT-01s arrive in Belgium, and with the 65th Regiment, take the whole region of Liege. (Roll of 2 for revoltings) As the new tanks speed into the city of Liege flying the German Empire's flags, a large crowd gathers in the way of the tanks. They throw fruits, vegetables, rocks, sand, dirt, and anything else they can find at the tanks. The tanks are mildly damaged. A Belgian man of French descent climbs onto one of the tanks, opening it up and throwing rocks at the crew inside. A crew member takes a pistol and shoots the man in the stomach, causing him to fall off the tank, clenching his stomach. The crowd is outraged, and begins to climb over the tanks. The tank crews begin firing the 20mm cannon, as well as running over some civilians. As the infantry arrive from both the Belgian and German armies, both sides fight it out. The Germans win a major victory here, taking minor losses. The Belgians lose most of their forces and retreat. The city of Liege is then burned to the ground because of the resistance it caused. The Treaty of Aachen is proposed.
 * Despite all of the war crimes and atrocities committed by the evil regime of Wilhelm II of Germany, Albert I reluctantly accepts the peace proposal, reassuring his citizens that the Germans will get what is coming to them. (Rex - As mod)
 * French President Raymond Poincare strongly condemns the German aggression, as exemplified by the destruction of Liege, in blatant disregard for the Geneva Conventions, which relate to treatment of civilians and the peaceful non-combatants, especially sick and wounded. Pointcare calls for the leading German general to be tried at Brussels by a court composed of British, French, Dutch, Belgian, and German judges (1 from each nation).
 * German Dip: We accept to send a judge, and the General in question, Lieutenant General Karl Dieffenbach.
 * St._Chamond.jpge begins to seriously prepare itself for mounting tensions. We begin to work to make the Entente Powers an official organization with the purpose of maintaining democratic practices throughout Europe and the world, as well as preserving the current balance of power and promoting self-determination. We invite the United Kingdom, Italy, and Russia to join as leading states of the Alliance. We also open the alliance up to the United States (as an active observer member), and any other Latin American nations. Serbia and Romania are also offered entrance to this alliance. France itself works to develop the military, with the entire army wearing camouflaged field uniforms and practicing artillery combat. Meanwhile, Colonel Estienne, an influential military strategist, proposes a series of border protections along the Franco-German border (modeled after the OTL Maginot Line). Additionally, Estienne convinces Commander Joffre to order creation of tanks to rival the German models, and car companies Renault and Peugeot quickly rise to the challenge. Renault introduces the St. Arois Mach 1, and Peugeot introduces the Leopard Mach 1. Finally, Pointcare invites Belgium to join France as an autonomous region, which would still maintain its current government but receive French (and therefore Russian and British) protection. A similar offer is made to the Netherlands and Luxembourg. At the end of the year, French spies report that the Spanish intend to expand aggressively and Poincare orders an invasion of Spain, putting the newly trained army to use.
 * Throughout the French colonial empire, the provinces are prepared for potential war. As war seems ever closer, the navy continues to improve and begins to drill for blockades and seizures of the colonies of other nations, which will probably take place in a first-come, first-serve basis. Tunisia is annexed into Algiers. Meanwhile, as the war against Spain begins, the French North African army attacks Morocco and Western Sahara.
 * Wait, Italy? Weren't they on the side of the Central forces at the beginning?
 * Ottoman D: We don't see what the problem is about, Spain only treated their colonial rebels as they deserve. Anti-colonial rebels are sh*t in our view. The Arab rebels in our nation are lucky we only cut their noses of this time! (The Ottomans were naturally intolerant of rebels).
 * British Dip: Accepted.
 * Federal States of Greater Austria (FSGA): The Government finally puts into action the federal plan, after a two-year preparation. This grants non-Austrian and non-Hungarian ethnicities larger autonomy in their respective regions. This increases the support of the numerous ethnicities towards the newly re-organized nation. Partially autonomous governments focus on infrastructure. The nation as a whole begins funding the adaptation of the German tanks to the Greater Austrian terrain and the Greater Austrian needs. Although Federal states will have rights to pass laws unique to their respective federal state, a new constitution is being written that will be valid in the whole nation.
 * Brazil: We start to drill on the coast of our nation for oil. Our scientists continue to work on a cure for malaria. With the growing tensions in Europe we send supplies to our allies of the Central Powers. With our flying program becoming a hit, one person builds a prototype plane to fly himself. He flies for 10 minutes at the speed of 25 mph at 200 feet in the air. Our military increases with the production of weapons being made. Our navy continues to build more ships. We send troops into Bolivia and Paraguay to influence them in the Brazilian way. With France declaring war on Spain we support Spain in the war. We declare war on the Republic Of Arauca. (mods can you please make an algo for this war) We tell Venezuela to watch out for this man and we will help you capture him.
 * The Brazil conquers the Republic Of Arauca.
 * British Empire: War is declared on Spain. The Royal Navy Blockades the Nation.
 * ​Great Britain: With rising tensions in Europe continuing, we begin to develop tanks. Military and Economy improve. In response to the Easter Uprising in Ireland, military presence in Ireland increases. Despite this, a referendum will be held late next year to see if Ireland wishes to remain a domain of the empire or become an autonomous country. The largely protestant areas in the North will likely be against this while the Catholic majority will favor it.
 * British Raj: Military and Economy improve.
 * Gibraltar: Military and Economy Improve.
 * Domain of Canada: Economy and Infrastructure improve.
 * Newfoundland: Same as above.
 * Guyana:Same as above
 * Australia:Same as above
 * New Zealand: Same as above.
 * Egypt: Military and Economy improve
 * Sudan: Military and infrastructure improve
 * Somalia: Economy and infrastructure improve
 * Nigeria: Economy and Military improve.
 * Uganda: Same as Above
 * Kenya: Same as above.
 * OTHERS WILL BE ADDED LATER HOPEFULLY.
 * I'm doing the Algos.Whipsnade (talk) 14:55, April 20, 2014 (UTC)
 * Please state actual troop numbers in future wars.
 * I would like help by the other mods. Some one else can do mod events and turn the year, I just did it because no one else did. 
 * Ottoman D: It is sad to see Moslem Berber die, but that is a sad fact of colonial rule under Christians. We don't see what the military-political problem is about, Spain only treated their colonial rebels as they deserved. Anti-colonial rebels are sh*t in our view. The Arab rebels in are nation are lucky we only cut their noses of this time! (The Ottomans were naturally intolerant of rebels).
 * Argentina D: We are upset to see Spain invaded and condemn it. All refugees from Spain can come to Patagonia and upgrade our nation's farms. We require 100,000 to fill the labour shortages in the region. Humanitarian aid is sent to Spain.
 * Siam: Declares war on Spain and sends 40,000 troops (mainly newly recruited from Borneo) to assist its British ally.  In the meantime, Borneo is integrated into the nation at large. Infrastructure, especially transport networks and health services, are greatly expanded, gaining the respect of the once-oppressed Bornean populace.  Transport expands throughout the country, enabling improved military movement and expanding the economy. Siam proposes the Treaty of Djakarta to the Netherlands to end the war. (Mods?) In the meantime, Siam invades the Celebes to pressure the Dutch, first scouting and then running troop across the straits from Boreno into the trackless interior. Once there, they assemble and take the Dutch by surprise in a mirror of the Borneo offensive, accompanied by thousands of Sulawesi tribesmen, remembering the Dutch campaigns of 1905-6.
 * Sulawesi(Celebes) falls. Andalusia falls, bur Seville holds out. Seville had a population of 210,000, thus needs a separate Algo. Wallonia falls after some fighting. Vlaams falls, but Antwerp holds out. Antwerp had a population of ~300,000, thus needs a separate Algo. Mods, is this right?

1917


'''During the drafting of the new FSGA Constitution in Vienna, a major bombing, blamed on the Serbian Black Hand kills the leaders of all regions of Austria. Among the few survivors is Stjepan Radić, Croat politician.'''

As a result, the FGSA devolves into Civil War, with the declarations of independence of the following nations being issued: Slovenia, Croatia, Transylvania, Bohemia, Slovakia, West and East Galicia.

'''Elsewhere in Europe, the leaders of the Low Countries accept joining the French Republic as autonomous regions. The unpopular Spanish king is forced to accept new powers by the Parliament, which urges the King to accept the Treaty of Le Havre, which would end conflict between all nations invading Spain.'''

''' After the French assume control over all former Belgian and Dutch colonies, the Siamese decide to leave Sulawesi rather than risk French colonial aggression in a difficult decision. '''

'Lieutenant General Karl Dieffenbach is tried and sentenced to death by a vote of 4-1 (with the German judge ruling not guilty'') for his role in the Rape of Liege. News of this event spreads to the US, where the anti-Germans are extremely distraught.'''

 * Argentina: A supply of 1,000 free potatoes and 10 tons of wheat are sent to Spain. Comodoro Rivadavia in Chubut Province is prospected for oil by YPF and 4 well a drilled. A minor copper mine opens in Mendoza region at Malargüe. A few prototype aircraft are made. Several steam trains are made. Immigrant laboures requested from Spain, Italy, Serbia, Mexico, Britain, USA and Portugal due to labour shortages in Patagonia. Road and ranch upgrades occur in Rivadavia, Jujuy, and Salta. People of mixed White/Native Argentine Indians are given equal rights to Whites. We offer a trade deal to the Ottoman Empier, Colombia, Venezuela, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Cuba, China, Japan, Siam and Peru.
 * User quits the game saying it's ASB and give's Argentina to Satern 120.Whipsnade (talk) 01:04, April 21, 2014 (UTC)


 * Ottoman Empire: The Ottoman Empire gives the remote Mutawakkilite Kingdom of Yemen and the Emirate of Asir independence. Kurdish rebels of Diyarbakir Vilayet and Mosul city are warned to back-down or face assault, but as a concession the Kurdish language is legalized in that Vilayet. An alliance akin to the OTL Ottoman German Alliance is offered to Germany. Relations are strengthened with Ha’il and Bulgaria. A sloop of war based on the HMS Espiegle. Several steam trains are made and a passenger ship based on the SS Henry Chisholm are laid down. A few prototype aircraft are made. and a universally accessible public education system is introduced in Anatolia, Damascus and Eastern Thrace. The Ottomans agree to the trade deal.
 * Satern 120 will be returning today, so he gets the Ottomans back.


 * Italy, excited by the collapse of its longtime regional rival but ally due to practicality, decides that a break with the German and Austro-Hungarian states is in order. This is only made stronger by the desire of the current Italian monarch to increase relations with France, which is quickly becoming one of the main superpowers. As such, Italy applies for alliances with Russia, France, and Great Britain. Italy also mobilizes its military to seize Slovenia, which is quickly annexed. Relations with Croatia are improved.
 * France, under President Poincare, continues to develop itself as a large-scale world power. The airplane and tank industries continue to recieve even greater widespread support, and therefore investments. Renault and Peugeot continue to be major European automotive and tank manufacturers as the Leopard Mach 2 is introduced as a great success for Peugeot. Joffre continues to develop the Estienne Line (OTL Maginot Line) after finishing his combat in Spain. With the end of the Spanish War, Aragon and Navarre is improved to be brought up to French standards. Public education in that region begins to focus on assimiliating the two cultures as much as possible, with education in Catalan and French.
 * The French Colonial Empire is reorganized into 6 Regional Directorates (North, Central, Eastern Africa; Americas; Indies; China). Each directorate is now in charge of its own respective region and reports to the President in Paris. Suriname and Guyana are merged into Greater Guyana, and all islands in the American Directorate are merged into the Greater Antilles. Meanwhile, the rebellions are crushed with relative ease by the Kepi Blancs.
