New Template for my Sig
Hi Collie, How do I add my sig here as a template? Emperor of Luxembourg *RC* (Talk to Me)

Centralisation
Hello Collie. As you can see by now - I tend to go round telling people how they can keep their nation united and such, lol. Right now I feel Iberia is too divided up between different states. What is the major language in the region? This is becuase you will need to begin to implement it as the state language as quickly as you can and begin the process of centralisaton so that your nation can be united and last into the modern day. You might also want to begin to pump in heavy propoganda into France to help them fall in line with the Portugese/Castillians - they have been a chaotic lot throughout (PMII) history. Maybe look into creating a hybrid language too? Two major nation have already done it and although ours may have been due to mixing of the populations and the need for one, for your union it is of paramount importance the people speak in the same language.

So what do you think? Or are you planing to break apart your union anyway? :L  Imp (Say Hi?!) 20:23, November 15, 2013 (UTC)

Well, I would have though Basque would have died out - I would think it should have been phased out lol. You know, you don't need to make it forced - just implement it in schools - like in India. You will have Portugese and the regional language as the languages they will learn. This will mean they will speak their own language but also, Portugese and this will help keep your empire together. No need to repress other languages at all lol.

I agree with the OTL Germany thing - but make sure the kings have less power than OTL. And get them marrying each other- so by the modern day they are basically one major Royal Family. That would make a small kingdom breaking apart basically impossible.

I think this could keep your nation together. Just make sure you allow them some sort of small parliament post 80s so they do not become like OTL Spain lol. :D  Imp (Say Hi?!) 23:42, November 15, 2013 (UTC)

I'll take it off the list, thanks for reminding me. Airlinesguy (talk) 12:55, November 22, 2013 (UTC)

Just so you know what I just did in PMII - I'm not attacking you, but I'm in the process of collapsing the Praetorate of Pure Scinece and forging their leadership into a terrorist organization after they lose power. So there are going to be Pure Science terroris attacks in various places - I'm going to attack them myself and you can help me take them out if you want - but it's nothing against you..actually I'm only hitting people who I know are nice to put some excitement into the timeline, as nobody else has tried terrrorism or chemical weapons. Commandante Lemming (talk) 21:54, December 2, 2013 (UTC)

Go ahead and invade - but Germany is going to attack as well so make sure you join up with them, and the Selk'nam and their sattelites will also be joining. I'm getting a good laugh at the idea of a multinational flotilla descending on Praetorate island of Yagich Gavin - which is the tiniest thing I own and uninhabited OTL. I don't know who is going to end up holding the island but I'm going to try and buy it back qand merge it into the Attican Union.

Either way, the entire goal of the Praetorate was to be the "mouse that roared" - and they've done that. Now I'm just going to enjoy watching how lopsided the algorithm will be :-)

Commandante Lemming (talk) 14:27, December 3, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for understanding - and yeah the entire point of this event was to bait the European powers into blowing the Praetorate off the map. Commandante Lemming (talk) 14:40, December 3, 2013 (UTC)

Could you tell me which states are which please in Africa? Thank you! And you may need to change the map for Africa, lol. :D  Imp (Say Hi?!) 00:20, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

Sure, I'll get round to answering in game. :)  Imp (Say Hi?!) 23:28, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

PMIII
Hey, Collie, Im thinking of starting the rules for PMIII soon and the map will be underway shortly. I'm going to draft it all up and pass it by you for approval. Scandinator (talk) 15:35, December 13, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry for the wait. Just fill out the fact sheet as you see fit. This sheet is for a sci fi setting I'm working on, and i wanted some nations and people to populate the galaxy with. Once I set up a wiki for the setting, you can contribute to it if you want. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 23:23, December 14, 2013 (UTC)

Y u no give name? Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 17:47, December 15, 2013 (UTC)

It can be a confederacy of sorts if you want. people living out their lives under an umbrella nation that represents them all, but has no official capital. Is the second "R" in Eorðan rīce capitalized or is that how its suppose to be? Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 19:57, December 15, 2013 (UTC)

Hey Collie, here's the with you empire. Your on the left-hand side of the galactic core. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 20:28, December 15, 2013 (UTC)

Don't worry. I know exactly the guy to talk to about it. Funnily enough, he created a nation called the Kingdom of Wessex back on Conworlds, and developed that country deeply. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 21:07, December 15, 2013 (UTC)
