Humanity, Awake! (Map Game)

Introduction
Somewhere in the 1950s, a massive global EMP struck, causing all electronics to suddenly black out, leaving the world in the dark. Chaos ensued. Epidemics, nuclear reactor meltdowns, starvation, and the collapse of every nation on Earth. Humanity didn't see the light of day until around 1972. That is where you come in. To colonize, wage war, and forge alliances. Good luck :D

 * Republic of Ohio begins to rebuild the military and infrastructure the former National Guard is reformed as the Republican Guard. Many major cities of Ohio are being repaired and modernized.

Korea begin its isolation policy, similar to that of the Japanese.
 * Hey GR, can you explain the connections between nations? (If they know of each other's existence, etc.)
 * Cuba: Government buildings in Cuba pop up with lights all of a sudden for the first time in decades, much to Fidel Castro's suprise who was in the very building as it was suddenly lit up. Decades has it been since there was electricity in Cuba, Cuba used old styled factory to produce food and weapons, and used old style warships to conquer Jamica and Hispaniola. A 10,000 man army already stationed in the regional capital of the Dominican Region, Santo Domingo, prepare for an invasion of nearby Puerto Rico.

 * Lithuania: Lithuania builds several universities and starts rebuilding its navy, in order to allow contacting missions to and/or recolonising of the "lost" parts of the world.
 * Chile: It rises from the ashes of war only to discover it now owns more land then ever. They began a period or reconstruction, aiming to find survivors, rebuild communities, reestablish their economy, build up infrastructure, and establish their navy and military. They begin constructing schools, hospitals, and roads everywhere to help connect to everyone.
 * American Union: More factories in Philadelphia and New York are rebuilt increasing industry. A old national guard depot is found containing several functioning old world weapons. Work is immediately assigned to the top engineers to copy these guns and figure out how to produce the ammunition. Troops begin to march into Quebec, on a punitive raid to deal with the hostile tribes which threaten the northern borders. Offers of alliance and trade are send the New CSA and Ohio.
 * Alliance offer accepted. RoO asks the American Union if it can send weapons. In exchange we will help provide then nuclear power
 * American Union agrees with offer. Be warned that these are weapons from the 50s so don't expect lazer guided missiles anytime soon.
 * Confederate States of America: The CSA celebrates its newfound independence and agrees to the American Unions trade and alliance offers. The CSA begins to build up infrastructure, industry, and its military, expansion into the unclaimed regions of North America begins as well while Confederate troops begin to assemble an army on the Texan border. A stash of nuclear weapons are found and put under super tight security.
 * The Republic of Ohio begins to send forces to the CSA as well as supplies. The Republic discovered several Air Force bases and have already begun to reproduce several old war planes. The RoO would like to offer some to the CSA in exchange for some of the unclaimed lands to the West.
 * Where is the Republic of Ohio on the map?? I don't see it, and according to the map modern day Ohio looks to occupied by the American Union-- Its not-- I am still a sovereign nation.
 * The CSA agrees to the Ohio offer and suggests that the two nations never do a war alone and that they always help each other out no matter what. Ohioan and Confederate troops continue to mass on the Texan border. Tanks and planes are also to the border. (Your spelling is atrocious)
 * The Republic of Ohio also would like to know if The American Union, the CSA and the Republic of Ohio form the Greater American Cooperative, an alliance and trade body similar to the EU where each nation is still independent but is united towards common goals.
 * American Union D: i'm all for it. Lets base it somewhere central like Richmond

Half of them still work, and Rome begins to fix them up. Caesar Anthony Sacarro states that the Roman Empire shall rise again, yet as a republic. Two planes are finished by the end of the year, RRA Survival and RRA Humanity.
 * Paris: The army is rebuilt and plans to form France again arise.
 * Japan: The Japanese Daimyos unite together to reform the Empire of Japan. They elect the former Emperor of Japan, and the current ruler of Tokyo, Emperor Hirohito to the Chrysanthemum Throne. The Emperor takes complete control of Japan with the Daimyos forming an advisory body called the Diet of Japan. Emperor Hirohito announces that Japan will "Rule East Asia in a Greater Japan and that all who oppose us shall be subjugated". The Imperial Japanese Army and Imperial Japanese Navy is reformed and conscription is enacted for males 15-21.
 * Hindu Empire: The army is rebuilt and a quarter of them head to the darken Sri Lanka to get territory.

1972.25

 * Chile: It continues to find any survivors in their country, diggging out anyone they can find. They continue to reestablish civilization by promoting education so that people can be taught the skills needed for a proper workforce. They send scouts outside the country to recruit any other survivors to their country.
 * American Union: Several varients of assault rifles and machine guns from the depot have been sucessfully replicated and mass production is underway. A large scale project being funded by the Kennedy family has been launched to rebuild many of the great roads which span the Union. Also the campaign against the tribes in Quebec has met sucess as Montroel and Ottowa have already been take, yet resistance still continues to wear the troops down in Nova Scotia. A several biplanes have been repaired and replicated allowing for the formation of a rudimentary airforce. In Boston several large fishing companies are attempting to build a ship capable of travelling longer distances in hopes of a expedition into the atlantic for larger hauls of fish. Elections have been announced for the following year.
 * The Republic of Ohio would like to mention that they did discover some old (OTL WWII) airplanes and have begun mass production the most common being the M180 Corsair(made up the M180 part) and has offered to send some to the AU as they are superior to Biplanes
 * Ohio is also curious to whether or not (with AU help) to begin expanding up into the Great Lakes.
 * The AU agrees to the trade of planes and asks that they set the border with ohio controlling michagan while the union can use detoit as a trading post between nations.
 * Ohio accepts.AU/Ohio.png
 * Texan Diplomacy: Texas asks what cause of war there is between our nations except the wreckless nature of it's ally the CSA. Texas requests that the American Union not attack our country.
 * The American Union states that the CSA is one of our closest allies and while Texas is only being attacked due to its weakness, not aiding its allies would set a dangerous precedent.
 * Hindu Empire: New Mumbai has been the capital after a vote of 1 person to 7 people for Mumbai. The quarter of the army that was going to Sri Lanka to make them join together. The army has been recruit more people to help as they searched for evidence from the blackout.
 * Japan: The Imperial Japanese Navy locates some of the old JMSDF ships that survived the blackout and they begin research on the vessels in hopes of replication. The Imperial Japanese Army attacks the Daimyos that refused to join Japan in Hokkaido, the Daimyos are quickly over whelmed and are absorbed into Japan. The Daimyos who participated in the invasion divide the island among themselves. Emperor Hirohito announces that Japan will "in the next ten year capture the Forbidden City and march into Beijing.". The Japanese company Mitsubishi is revived by a group of wealthy Japanese industrialist and they begin production of weapons and they begin to purchase mines to operate.
 * Texas: The communities begin to come out of the nuclear dark ages and start to restore the once-great state. The formation of Texas is comemorated with the first oil rig re-opening, begining to pump the black gold to the surface. Work begins on restoring and rebuilding cities and vehicles that can be salvaged from the attack. A new capital is established in Corpus Christi. The Texans model their government after the former United States, with the exception of two consuls being elected into the executive branch instead of one president. Texas asks for an alliance with California.
 * Californian Diplomacy: We accept. Troops begin to march toward Texas to aid it in case the Confederates attack.
 * Texas Diplomacy: Texas greatly appreciates the help that the Californians are providing to fight off the aggressors.
 * Confederate States of Ameirca: The CSA, with its Ohio and American allies having sent troops, tanks, and air planes as well as naval assistance, declares war on Texas and launches a massive invasion of the unprepared Texan nation. Allied troops make huge gains against the Texans. Someone please do an algorithm. Ohio and America both sent military forces to help the COnfederates.
 * WTH? First, turns go in quarter years, so it is 1972.25. Second, how, after 6 months, are you attacking me? We just came out of the dark ages! Travel is at a near standstill - you might be lucky to have a few functioning cars or boats. Weapons are scarse - in 20 years, many will be unaccounted for or will not function correctly, not to mention trying to find ammunition. Your population can't be a whole lot larger than mine. So how is it, even if you did attack me, that you 'make huge gains'?
 * Man always will make or find weapons for war, it is a rce with no bounds, and it will always find guns and weapons. Also,with 20 years in the dark ages doesnt mean iI couldnt have built upa military.
 * Maybe I built up a military, and your claim that Texas was unprepared was a misconception on your part. Either way, since you're coming to me, I have the homefield advantage, which includes knowledge of the terrain, little to no transportation needed, and motivated soldiers.
 * Also the would stopped in the 1950s how many microchips existed then. the american union is using older factories and is having to use crude mocks of weapons found discarded at National guard bases, we are just very lucky to find them. we won't be suddenly producing tanks, we can't even cross the atlantic. Also to reach the CSA we are repairing many of our disused roads which is likely to take the next 5 years to become fully functional.
 * So, just step off. You are hardly prepared for war, and if you attacked us, we would have no problem defeating you.
 * Paris: War is declared with surrounding French countries. The army invades them. (Someone please do an algorithm)
 * Hungaro-Romania: A militia group form the Hungaria-Romania Socialist Republic (HRSR) and begin a massive buildup of the country's military and economy (yes, I did change the spelling of Hungary on purpose).
 * California: Troops are sent to Texas, to help protect them against attack. Meanwhile, draft begins, and 3000 men are drafted to help secure the nation. Meanwhile, a Steel Plant begins construction in San Fransisco.
 * Ohio: In response to the official declaration by of war by the CSA, Ohio begins a draft for anyone between 16-21. Ohio also begins to send some old steamships down the Mississippi toward the gulf to begin exploration.
 * CSA Diplomacy: The CSA asks Ohio to declare war on Texas.
 * The Senate voted and Passed the President's Declaration of War almost unanimously. Troops, armoured and air divisions are now being sent to Texas. Ohio calls on the AU for support as well.
 * Texan Diplomacy: Texas asks what cause of war there is between our nations except the wreckless nature of it's ally the CSA. Texas requests that Ohio not attack our country.
 * The Senate ratified the War because our ally declared war on Texas, the CSA had been planning to own Texas before it was a player country, Ohio merely honoured our part of the deal. Ohio will ask all of the American Co-Op (the AU and Ohio Senate) and will discuss the war and then get back to you.
 * The GAC have concluded to continue the war.
 * Texan Diplomacy: Since you are seeking allies and the CSA is starting to make hasty and unwise decisions, Texas proposes an alliance between itself, Ohio, and the American Union, to defeat the CSA. That way, you still recieve land, still have (grateful) allies, and Texas will join the Co-Op in place of the CSA so that things will not change.
 * Siberia: Siberia has a thing or two for new expansion for they want to know what is in the northern lands of Siberia. Siberia also makes an alliance offer to the California Republic.
 * Texan Diplomacy: Texas implores Siberia not to accept the offer of the CSA. We did not provoke the attack and have done nothing to deserve it. Texas wishes for an alliance between itself and Siberia. Or, if not an alliance, at least a non-aggression pact.
 * Moscowy: the Muscovites discover their counterparts, the siberians. while they are no longer communists, they ask the siberians for an expansion treaty, so that they do not have conflict over the lands they will preside over. 640px-Proposition.png
 * Cascadia: The CSS Pacific makes it to the Hawaiian islands. A trading colony called New Columbia is set up there. The ports of Astoria, Victoria, and Seattle are being rebuilt. Cascadia looks to a bright trading future with the countries of the Pacific Rim. Due to the recent Texas-CSA war, Cascadia sets up an arms factory in Vancouver, and establishes Salem as their capital. Cascadia begins to come out of the Nuclear Dark Ages. Gold mines are established in what was Eastern Oregon and California. The government is re-established with a fusion of Great Britain's old government and Ancient Rome, with two Consuls, and a Parliment and Senate. Enviromentalism and Nationalism is widespread.
 * Texan Diplomacy: Texas requests an alliance between our countries, which could be beneficial to us both. I have no doubt that the expansionist tendancies of the CSA will not stop with my country.
 * Cascadian Diplomacy: Cascadia accepts the alliance. Cascadia mobilizes 10 WWI and WWII era planes from the old air museums at McMinnvile and Tillamook, and sends them to Texas. They are now yours for the duration of the war. However, Cascadia decides to not directly command any troops in the war, and officially remains neutral.
 * The CSA offers Siberia an alliance, and if Siberia joins the CSA in an alliance, the CSA will give Siberia parts of California or if it wishes, parts of Texas so it has a base on the Atlantic Ocean.Cascadia is also offered an alliance and offered parts of California. Both nations are promised that CS expansion into PC countires will end after Texas.
 * Cascadian Diplomacy: 
 * I don't mean to be a spelling Nazi but will you PLEASE start using spellcheck?
 * Agreed. It's getting really annoying. I keep cleaning it up and then you just post more. ARG!
 * Korea: Korea expands northward, and reclaims all of former North Korea. Meanwhile, the army is expanded, and the navy expands to patrol the Yellow Sea and North Pacific Ocean. Korea asks for trade agreements and alliances with Siberia.
