Principia Moderni, or "The Beginning of the Modern" in Late Latin, is a map game beginning in the final days of the Middle Ages in Europe, and the early days of the Ming dynasty in China--1420 C. E...The House of Hohenzollern have become the Electorates of Brandenburg--though most of the power in the Holy Roman Empire still lies with the Habsburgs, Joan of Arc has defeated the English at Orleans, the city of Tenochtitlan is founded by the Aztecs, the Timurid Empire has united Central and West Asia, and the Yongle Emperor sends out Zheng He to voyage westwards. It is a turbulent era, in other words, an era of change, and an era in which power is cemented.

Principia Moderni Map 1840 Key

In Eastern Kazahkstan, where the Russian influence is less, Islamic uprisings begin to occur, as the movement moves east. However, they aren't full-scale revolts, yet. In China, in the "panhandle" north of Kazahkstan, minor revolts occur, but the Muslim population there has been under Chinese rule for so long that they are partially assimilated. However, to the further east in the West Changistan Areas (that used to be Changistani, but then China took before they vassilized Changistan) many revolts begin occuring.

Why are the United Emirates (former United Principalities) neutral? They even have to have some lands from the muslims who asked protection the last turn.

Which nations took Sharzur's territory aside of Armenia and the United Principalities?

All of the surrounding nations. Also Sweden is missing Franz Josef Land.

  • Persia's New Tehran colony expands 75x75 sq. mi. west. New Persia expands by 75x75 sq. mi. The Persian Andes colony expands by 75x75 sq. mi. With stability restored, the government declares a state of emergency to recover the country. They ask Russia and China for help.
    • You've not yer accepted nor rejected my terms of peace. Until you accept them, the country is still in war against the Caliphate. Really, you do need read otherones' posts and stop this copy-and-paste posts of yours.
    • Persian Diplomacy: Persia accepts to pay the costs of the war, but refuses to give them military technologies to the country, yet will establish a demilitarized zone between the two countries.
  • The Vietnamese expand their East Africa colony westwards by 76*50 sq km. The Vietnamese continue to expand industry through out the empire. The Vietnamese assist the Kenians in recovering more of their nation's former territory.
  • The New Lithuanians expand their New Samogita colony by 25*50 sq km. The New Lithuanians expand their South American colony, which they name New Ruthenia, by 25*50 sq km. They found the city of Naujas Minskas, which is selected as the capital of the new colony
  • Naples sends troops to attack the three ports of Turan, to help in the war against the Turks by the
    Indian sale

    What the borders will be if the sale goes through.

    Hungarians. The Neapolitans also send small amounts of troops to Pahang, to stop a revolt there by the Muslim minority. Attempts are made to convert the Muslims to East Asian Christianity or Buddhism. Meanwhile, due to increased Indian nationalist movements in Tamilia, the Neapolitans make one last desperate ploy to hold off the nationalist movements for at least another decade, and offer a territory trade with Bharat. Naples will give Bharat part of Tamilia that is primarily Indo-Aryan in race and language, and Bharat will give Naples a primarily Dravidian part. In addition, Naples will give the Bharatis some ancient Hindu artifacts found in old Malay ruins in Pahang. Will Bharat accept this deal?
    • In order for Bharat to accept the deal, either Godavari should be given to Bharat as a vassal or otherwise or less land should be taken off Bharat.
    • Naples does not control Godavari, and the Dravidian nationalists want as many as possible to be in their land. They state that they will, in return for that land, give not only the land they gave to Bharat in the map and the many ancient Hindu artifacts will be given, but Naples will pay for all costs of the transition as well as pay money equivalent to all the tax money Bharat would have gotten from that area for the next two years.
    • (Then who controls Godavari?) Bharat reluctantly agrees to this, but would still like Godavari.
    • Actually, now that I look at it, Godavari is independent. Govapuri, the northern of the two states that border the Neapolitan territory to the East, is an independent nation, but Collie controls them.
    • Naples sends all of what they promised to send to Bharat, and then begins transferring control of the part of Tamilia they have planned to give to Bharat to the Bharatis and to take control of the part they will gain.
  • Immigration from more advanced Germany has finally taken effect in Neue Brandenburg, as factories (mostly to process timber) are built in NBC and Neue Wilhelmsburg. By 1842 these cities will be connected by a railway. More and more people move to the city when Johann of Hesse decides to begin lead the natives in revolt against the nobles (although he claims he supports the king). The west is more dangerous for settlers, and although the nation expands west by 5000 sq km, more people live in walled towns than plantations. Urbanization continues.
  • Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 300km inward, expands Kōshi by 350km, expands Sätōri by 300km, and expands Käwäshiro by 300km. The Oulu-Tampere-Espoo-Vantaa rail-road is 19/39 done. Meanwhile the new flag of Finland is adopted, combining Finnish paganism and Shinto ideals into one. The old flag of Finland remains official as well and is to be flown over Finnish Orthodox churches and to represent the Orthodox Finns. The new flag is also used on ships and foreign relations and etc. The old flag is used for Orthodox-related stuff.
  • Burgundy is mourning the death of former chancellor Johann Karl, revered as one of the great francophone nationalists (and burgundian autonomist) throughout France-Burgundy. Now, the progressive parties take power after the death of revered Johann Karl and his conservative party in Burgundian Parliament. Jean-Paul Ribes is the new chancellor in the Burgundian Parliament and swears allegiance to France and Russia. The New Chancellor asked the central government of the Empire (Russian) the entry of more industry in the "Tsardom" of Burgundy. They claim they need more material to withstand economic downturns that have been suffering during the years of Conservative Party. It also gives the claim that the Tsar had the former King of Burgundy Charles II (and also the Emperor of France, Robert) to take the Spanish throne. This claim has two reasons: The expansion in the years 1420-1449 Castilian Empire (now Spain) which linked the Franco-Burgundian dynasties and joined the castillian throne in Castile and the issue of "Western Algeria", colonized by the Kingdom of Burgundy and later taken by the Spanish. Burgundy founds a new colony in american continent (Mexico), naming it New Burgundy (OTL: Tepic). Pushing it 100km to the north.
    • your request is granted. and just out of curiosity, does Burgundy have Salic Law? because Russsia is goverened by a woman, and france by her son because of a version of salic law that exists in this game. Wether you have Salic LAw or not will determine who rules Burgundy as the head of state. And also, do you mean to say about the Spain part, that Russia can claim the spanish throne? if so then it will be done very fast, but only after the Kazakhstan insident will be dealt with...Russia sends industrial machines and supplies to aid industrialization within her empire! Also, is the Russian Socialist PArty(now in power) asks that the Burgundians pass a law against child labour.
  • China works on quelling the revolts, especially in Changistani Areas. This prompts the Chinese to amp up their police force. Tear gas is used to quell some violent rebellions. This is a predecessor to many riot control forces. The Chinese Emperor says, "I refuse to fire upon my own people," thus promising no massacres will occur.
  • The Zeng-Zagráb railway continues to be built, and by this point, is 3/4 completed.The industry expands.Meanwhile, In Egypt, to quell the revolts, the Sultan declares Egypt a sovereign state, thus ceasing to be a vassal of Hungary.

Because the Russian government took no action the previous year to quell the Kazakh revolts, the entire nation of Kazakhstan declares its independence from Russia as an independent Khanate in a revolt. Meanwhile, the Chinese government's efforts have stopped all the protests except in the West Changistan area, where there are still some.

    • but russia's still winning...and this is using the revolt algorithm, and if I understand correctly(please correct me if I'm wrong), if you win in a revolt algorithm, you get to keep the territory...and unless alot more people help the fundamentalists...well...russia wins. thats what I understood about the revolt algorithm(although the one time it was used was turan and they lost)
    • No, revolt algorithm is different in that if it is a tie, the revolters still lose half their territory. You would still have to get over 33% to take all of it. And even if you reach this level, the amount you win from a war depends on how long it is, so the war might not have been long enough. If we had a stability table, it would be so much easier.
  • Spain: News of the Russian Tsar's plan to take the throne of Spain has reached the government, and they invite the Tsar to come and take the throne, as long as he wishes to go the same way as the last Spanish king.

  • Bharat's new factory construction in its vassal continues, and as job demands increase, so does the amount of migrating people to the hubs using the railways as a faster way to get to their destination. The second phase of the railroad construction plan continues. Bharat produces 10 steamships this turn, but these are for strictly military use. Naval schools are built to train officers as the navy expands. The army is continuously worked on. The mass conversion project has ensured greater unrest in many areas, and the mahajhapanas are at a loss on what to do next, with many areas experiencing mass conversions as the local hindu population begins converting other muslims into hinduism, although this is mostly done by the extremist side of the population.
  • Naya Bharat expands 550km inward towards the interior, with more colonizers arriving.
  • Hindustan expands 1000km north and inward, with better houses built in the main settlement.

  • Naples continues aiding the anti-Turkish military forces. Industrialization continues as inventors work on ways to get supplies there faster, with primitive steamships being used (although they aren't efficient enough to be adopted yet). Meanwhile, in Israel, large amounts of refugees come fleeing into the nation. Jews, Christians (primarily of the Syriac Orthodox Church), Zoroastrians, as well as Muslims who disagree with the current Caliphate (such as Quranists), flee into Israel from the UJE and Egypt and the Caliphate. The Syriac Christians primarily go to the city of Damascus, which following the Muslim exodus had been nearly abandoned, but now swells to being a large city once more. The Quranists and other Muslim minority groups primarily go to the furthest east parts of the nation. The Zoroastrians settle mostly in Beirut. The Jews settle all over. The religious statistics are now 72% Jew, 14% Syriac Christian, 6% Druze 5% Muslim, and 3% Zoroastrian.

  • The New Lithuanians expand their New Samogita colony by 25*50 sq km. The New Lithuanians expand their New Ruthenia colony by 25*50 sq km. The New Lithuanians begin the funding of industrial development in their Grand Duchy. They begin by importing industrial equipment from various places, studying it and manufacturing more of their own.

    New-nippon-vietnam-border-deal

    The new border deal Nippon offers Vietnam

    in the Philippines, in return for these borders Nippon will build half of Vietnam's fleet including the latest ironclad ships, and give Vietnam ironclad ship tech too. The refugees in Sokotara leave the refugee camps set up by Nippon too, with some returning to Persia, others back to the Caliphate and some decide to move to Korubia to start a new life. Otherwise Korubia expands by 1800 sq km so that the two parts of the colony are closer together; Satotochi expands by 1000 sq km, and Papua Nipponia expands (1000*3) 3000 sq km in the Cape York Peninsula too, as the colony begins to encompass the whole peninsula.

    • The Vietnamese also accept Nippon's offer.
    • Nippon is unwilling to give any land in the Philippines to Taiwan, but will help Taiwan to modernize her navy and set up a colony somewhere else in the world.
    • The Taiwanese accept the offer, and ask that the Nipponese set up a colony in the OTL Queen Charlotte Islands for the Taiwanese. The Taiwanese will dismantle all of their settlements and resettle them in the new colony.
  • The Turanian-Greek war continues. the armies keep advancing until summer, when Turan surrenders.However, given the Caliphate's presence, it is defined that Turan will be occupied by Greece until the definition of a peace treaty.Given Naples' involvement, the king asks the Napolitan parliament to decide whether Naples will want any territory.Meanwhile, Rangyóra expands 15000 sq km inland.

Russian Colonial settlements on the West coast expand by 3000km. Industrial workings are not haulted becasue of the war. the new taxaiton system is in place, as the Socialists declare this a huge victory for the people. Meanwhile, a book similar to the communist manifesto is writen by a socialist in Germany named Karl Marx (yet to determing the name of the ideology). This will in due time fracture the Socialist PArty into several factions, but not yet.
    • A Vietnamese person already wrote the Collectivist Manifesto, so chances are Mark would expand upon collectivism to make a "Revolutionary Collectivism" or something, so that would be the name.
  • Spain continues upgrading its millitary. Economy also improves. Agriculture stays static, with a surplus large enough to feed the entire country for two years. So that, in case of an emergency, food can be transported quickly and efficiently, the new government commisions work on an extensive rail system.
  • Sweden expands its navy. Wonderlaand is expanded by 3050 sqkm. Sweden takes over the remaining Canadian Arctic Islands.
  • Bharat's factory construction in its vassal slows down as focus is put back on the homeland and the construction of factories all over.

Naval schools are built to train officers as the navy expands and the army is continuously worked on. The mass conversion project has begun to yeild largely favourable results and the mahajhapanas decide to slow down the coversion process so that they can re-establish order in the few areas which might go critical in a year or two. The army which has grown quite powerful by this time has no major problems in establishing control over the areas and things will continue at a slower rate. The colonies recieve a bit of the limelight as many muslims being persecuted head to Australia to set up new lives. Most of these head to New Bharat and help the colony grow nicely this year.

A Collectivist party is among the officially recognized political parties in order to prevent a possible Collectivist revolution. The Taiwanese set up a colony in the OTL Queen Charlotte Islands with Nipponese assistance. They name the colony New Taihoku after the county in the homeland.

  • Persia's New Tehran colony expands 75x75 sq. mi. west. New Persia expands by 75x75 sq. mi. The Persian Andes colony expands by 75x75 sq. mi. Industrialization is completed in the country. Railraods, modern factories, capitalism, large cities, modern machinery, and new inventions become commonplace across the country. To prevent the support of collectivist ideas, reforms are established to protect workers against poor conditions. Also, anything that promotes collectivism is banned.
    • One of the founding policies of Collectivism is an intensive hatred of royalty, as it is just Communism under a different name. If there are Collectivists in Persia they wouldn't stop until the Shah is dead and replaced with a Collectivist dictator.
    • Not necessarily dictator...It would be interesting to have a democratic collectivist government wich succeeded, at least for a few years.
    • The problem with tht statement is that Collectivism, like Communism, has nothing to prevent the rise of a Stalin-type figure. Even if a Collectivist regime starts that way, eventually someone is going to seize absolute power.
    • Collectivism doesn't necessarily necessitate any particular type of government. It would be possible to have a USA-style system of checks and balances within Collectivist culture and economics. It would be difficult to set up, as the old regime would be destroyed and there would be a power vacume with no 'aristocracy' (somewhat) to step in like the USA. However, it would be interesting to have even a small state undergo a successful Collectivist revolution.
  • Naples continues industrializing, with the first profitable steamships being invented. However, the new working class is sympathetic to the collectivist ideas, so the Neapolitan government bans the collectivist writings within Naples. Istoias is expanded by 1000 square kilometers.

  • Nippon helps Taiwan to set up her colony, and offers an alliance to Taiwan too. All of Nippon proper, is now accessible by rail and the new middle classes and upper classes are the main users of the railways to travel; but the merchants and businesses of Nippon use the railways a lot more, mostly to transport goods around Nippon. More shipyards are built across Nippon too, including the super-sized Kobe Imperial Shipyard which is the largest in the world, and it produces the ironclads Nippon is giving to Vietnam to modernize her navy. Otherwise Nippon continues to expand her colonies with Shuujin expanding north along the coast by 500 sq km, Korubia expands by 1800 sq km so that the two parts of the colony are closer together; Satotochi expands by 500 sq km, and Papua Nipponia expands (1000*3) 3000 sq km in the Cape York Peninsula too, as the colony begins to encompass the whole peninsula.

Principia Moderni Map 1845
  • Should there not be the potato famine in Ireland?
  • I am guessing that the situation on Ireland by the 19th century, under Vietnamese colonization instead of English, would be different, maybe.
  • The Vietnamese are running a much less oppressive regime in Ireland than in OTL. They have basically realized that they need to keep the Irish on their side, as Vietnam proper is (needless to say) farther from Ireland than England. Not only is the colonial government filled with Irishmen (thus erasing the conditions that created the famine), but the Vietnamese would have sent food from other parts of the Empire if any famine was implied to happen in the future.

Makuria absorbs Islamic Sennar.

  • Naples expands Pahang by 2750 square kilometers along the coast of Borneo. They remind Brunei that Naples has a territorial claim upon the island (the map is somewhere on the talk page) and not to expand into the Neapolitan areas. Meanwhile, promotion of the metric system and industrialization both continue, as does the movement of refugees into Israel. Naples contacts Bharat, asking the status of the Farsis there, and if the Farsis would like Naples to transport the Israeli Zoroastrian population to Mumbai. Meanwhile, in Tamlia, a few of the native Dravidian people of the peninsula begin to consider a movement for independence.
    • The Farsis have done nothing against hindus and have never persecuted them unlike other religions and they are all safe and sound living their lives normally. Bharat will allow Naples to ask Farsis if they want to move to Bombay (pretty sure it was Bombay then) and pay for their transport.
    • The majority of the Farsis in Israel wish to join their brethren in Bombay, as they do not want their religion to be dilluted across vast distances.
    • The Farsis will be allowed to come to Bombay happily, or they could go to Gujrat where most of the Farsis are based.
  • Ricasolia builds up its military.
  • The ICR expands 1500km north and south.
  • Persia's New Tehran colony expands 75x75 sq. mi. west. New Persia expands by 75x75 sq. mi. The Persian Andes colony expands by 75x75 sq. mi. They absorb all former Shahzrur states that have asked for protection after the country's break-up.

  • Neue Brandenburg expands west by 6000 sq km. The year marks the death of King Willem I of Neue Brandenburg, and the end of 40 years of absolute monarchy. Although the new King Willem II is just as conservative, many new city dwellers demand some power. The new king has the support of the army, but the court forces them to grant a constitution and a diet. The new diet asks for a military alliance with Russia, because of the socialist leaderships, and begins to implement economic reforms. However, at the end of the year the king dismisses the diet, angering many, and imprisoned Johann of Hesse, who had returned to NBC. Finally, people from Neue Wilhelmsburg to NBC to Laskreng mourn the death of a (somewhat) beloved monarch.
    • The Russians agree to the alliance
  • Brunei states they are a independent nation and that if Naples wants all of there clamied territory there just going to expand faster. Brunei expands Sulawesi colony and expands along the eastern coastline of Borneo.
    • Naples states that Brunei expanding upon Neapolitan land claims in Borneo is tantamount to them taking Neapolitan land. It is not Naples' fault Brunei's government was too weak to hold itself together and couldn't attend the conference. Its not Naples' fault that Brunei did not get to claim more land.
    • Things have changed seen the conference and you have more than enough land and areas to expand into but if Brunei dosent have a strong hold on Borneo Bruneian sovereignty could be threatened and we do not need your permission to expand into an area you dont control so we will do so without it.
    • The Vietnamese, while stating that they will not enter any potential war resulting from this conlict, state that they agree with the Bruneians. They state that, as Brunei has not stolen land directly controlled by Naples, they have no right to impose their will apon them.
    • If Brunei can take Naples' claims from the conferance, than any other claims made by any nations in that conference are hearby invalid, as they can all be taken away from them. Naples states that it regards any nation that supports Brunei taking lands claimed by Naples as giving up their own claims over any unclaimed territory in the Indonesia area. Any nation that states that Naples cannot expand into uncontrolled land that another nation has claims in thereby must allow nations to expand into areas which they claim but do not control. To say otherwise is hypocrisy.
    • The Vietnamese agree to the Neapolitan statements, saying that they with avoid interfering with Neapolitan business from now on. They however still insist that it is unfair to hold Brunei accountable to a treaty they had not signed themselves. They request that the Neapolitans negotiate their issues with Brunei.

However Nippon shows reluctance in getting involved in another military conflict, and offers to act as mediator in this matter. Otherwise Korubia expands by 1800 sq km so that the two parts of the colony are closer together; Satotochi expands by 1000 sq km, and Papua Nipponia expands (1000*3) 3000 sq km in the Cape York Peninsula too, as the colony begins to encompass the whole peninsula.
    • Naples states that Persia's actions have no influence over them. Persia elected to give up its claim, Naples will not. In order for Naples to respect the claims given out in the Rotterdam Conferance, they expect all nations who participated in the conferance to back them on this issue. If Naples' claims can be rendered invalid and stolen from them, then so can the claims of any other nation that took part of that conference.
  • Ngainkeha expands inland as more Hathawaddian immigrants enter the country, and Nai O is elected as First Minister of Ngainkeha in the first democratic elections in Ngainkeha since her independence, mostly because Nai O ruled so well before as the Nipponese appointed native ruler of Ngainkeha.

  • to pervent an international incident and unnecessary blood shead Brunei switches expansion efforts east and south into areas unclamied by Naples. More territory is captured on the island of Sulawesi. Several rail lines are layed to connect the country side to the cities. The military overhauls continue.
    • Naples states that as long as Brunei does not attempt to expand into Neapolitan claims, they bear Brunei no ill will, and that Naples will let Brunei have free trade with the colony of Pahang.
    • Brunei agrees to the trade agreement.
  • Neue Brandenburg wishes to reaffirm their alliance with Prussia in the event of an invasion of Brandenburg, and offer their full support. Meanwhile, a railroad between NBC and Wilhelmsburg is begun. Industrialization continues, with cities growing. After international pressure, Johann of Hesse is released, but dies soon afterwords. Wilhelm II redoubles the crackdown on the natives, and begins to move many to special work camps. Many take to the jungles, to begin a guerilla war, but in response clearcutting continues and the nation expands by 6000 sq km. In a fit of rage, the King breaks off all ties with Russia (please don't be offended or intervene, he will die in a couple of years and the alliance will be restored. It's just a really reactionary monarch).
    • Prussia agrees.
  • China expands its military greatly. The proposal to join Korean and Chinese railroads is accepted.
  • In Nippon a very large funeral possession passes through Kyoto after Emperor Ninkō's death, and Emperor Ninkō is buried at Sennyū-ji. Prince Osahito, fourth son of the deceased Emperor Ninkō, ascends to the Chrysanthemum Throne as Emperor Kōmei of Nippon. Emperor Kōmei pushes the Shogun to enact medical reform so that better health care is offered to the people of Nippon, after seeing some of the poor medical treatment given to his recently deceased father. This includes the use of anesthesia, across the board use of ligatures, and more research into the germ theory. Otherwise Korubia expands by 1800 sq km so that the two parts of the colony are closer together; Satotochi expands by 1000 sq km, and Papua Nipponia expands (1000*3) 3000 sq km in OTL Cape York Peninsula too, as the colony begins to encompass the whole peninsula.
  • Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 400km inward, expands Kōshi by 450km, and expands Käwäshiro by 400km. The Oulu-Tampere-Espoo-Vantaa rail-road is tested and is very successful finally. Soon, the Suomen Rautatiet Ryhmä [Finland Railways Group] is founded too, by Haruka Kaurismäki (a lady).
  • Korea thanks the Chinese for accepting their offer, and construction begins right away. Meanwhile, the planet Neptune is discovered by 2 Korean astronomers, and is named 해왕성 (Hyeng-Wang-Song). Also, the sewing machine is invented by a Korean engineer, who was looking for a way to mass produce clothing. Meanwhile, the rotary printing press is also invented, and is used to mass produce newspapers, books, pamphlets, etc. Also, another Korean scientist invents the "Morse telegraph", which uses a simple code of dots and dashes to send messages. (Is it okay for me to steal inventions like this? Cause no one else is claiming em so.... :D)
    • Russai inveted the Telegraph like one or two years ago...sorry,
    • And China discovered Neptune several years ago too. Sorry.

  • Bharat's factory construction in its vassal continues and the construction of factories all over is helping to increase industrial output. The second phase of the railroad construction plan continues. Bharat produces its first ironclad with great success, and the ironclad is as big as the battleships constructed, making it huge. Naval schools are built to train officers as the navy expands and the army is continuously worked on. The mass conversion project has continued to yeild largely favourable results and as the population is now converted into Hinduism, the demolition of mosques can begin with no major objections. The remaining muslims continue to migrate to the colonies in Australia to set up new lives. Most of these continue to head to New Bharat.
  • Naya Bharat expands 1000km inward towards the interior, with more colonizers arriving. Farms contine to produce a small surplus amount.
  • Hindustan expands 550km south and inward, with better houses built in the main settlement and another small industrial factory set up on the coast.

  • The Vietnamese expand their East Africa colony westwards by 76*50 sq km. The Vietnamese continue to expand industries through out their empire. The Vietnamese assist the Kenians in recovering more of their nation's former territory. Collectivism is outlawed in the Vietnamese Empire, but that doesn't prevent the movement from going underground. The movement especially takes hold in the founder's home of Ireland, who still resent the far-off government of Vietnam.

  • Prussia continues the occupation of Brandenburg with Swedish help accepted, and stability is improved in the controlled areas.
  • Innovation and science continue to flourish in Korea, with the Revolver being invented. The revolver does not need to reload after every shot, and catches on very quickly to the general population. The government purchases the designs for the revolver from Kim Yoo-Jin, the inventor. Meanwhile, factories continue to be built, and telegraph lines start to go up. Telegraphs quickly gain popularity, and the Korean government asks to make a deal with the Russians: We will share technology for the next 10 years, and Korea will give them the territory they won from Pahang. Therefore, it will be mutually beneficial to both nations.
  • Brunei annexes the two small islands off the northern coast of Borneo and rail lines continue to be layed. the Sulawesi colony is expanded toward the interior of the island and more naval vessels are built.
  • Newfoundland expands 12000 sq km. the industry expands.
  • Hungary's industry continues growing.by this time, the Grek territory starts to be reorganized into new theme and bandon, with the Cypriot theme being created, although the proccess only will end in the next year.Magyar Dél-Amerikabán expands 15000 sq km inland.
  • Egypt continues updting its military.
  • Uruguay starts to update its military, and the country expands north by 4000 sq km.
  • Nippon continues to fund medical research, with a young doctor from Osaka called Kōichi Shidōu finding fame, after he conducted a series of researches including looking how people who drank from polluted wells and rivers got ill, whereas those who drank from clean water didn't; he then showed how when people have smallpox, those who come into close contact with the person infected with smallpox would be more likely to get smallpox themselves. He then combined his findings, the work of Marcus Terentius Varro & Antonie van Leeuwenhoek and his own thoughts into his thesis about Micro-organisms and how some of them seem to spread disease. He calls these disease spreading micro-organisms Sukoshini. Dr. Kōichi Shidōu points out that the Sukoshini are too small to travel great distances so they must be carried around by larger creatures to further spread their illnesses; and that they like to breed in dirty polluted places. He concludes in his thesis that the Sukoshini eat the creatures they are living on, and their blood is poisonous so when they eat the other creatures their blood poisons the creatures causing them to get the symptoms of illnesses. Otherwise Korubia expands by 1800 sq km so that the two parts of the colony are closer together; Satotochi expands by 1000 sq km, and Papua Nipponia expands (1000*3) 3000 sq km in the Cape York Peninsula too, as the colony begins to encompass the whole peninsula.
  • Ngainkeha expands inland as more Hathawaddian immigrants enter the country, and Ngainkeha also establishes a trade deal with the neighbouring aborigine nation (I tried looking for its name & it wasn't given) so the aborigine goods could be sold across the world.
  • A diplomatic union is set up with the loose tribes of the Inuit and Eskimos that inhabit the northern reaches of Canada and Alaska with Sweden helping to form a nation for them that stretches from Alaska to Thorlaand north of the railway. All Swedish lands on the Canadian Arctic Islands are ceded to the Inuit-Eskimo Confederation. The confederation soon incorporates most of OTL Yukon, Northwest Territory and Eastern Alaska as many tribes sign on. Sweden builds a capital for them at OTL Yellowknife. Wonderlaand expands 3050sqkm onto the coasts of the last two uncolonized Solomon Islands.
  • Russia expands further into Alaska. Russian Military ends operations in Kazakhstan and the KAzakhs agree to once again be the vassals of Russia (This is because the Algroithm was not done! I dont feel like having a 10 year war!). Industry booms, and telegraph lines are set up in Moscow, as the Russians agree to the Korean deal for the revolver.
  • Bharat's factory construction in its vassal and homeland finishes and factories churn out huge amounts of iron, cotton as well as steamships and ironclads. The second phase of the railroad construction plan is almost completed, and the railroad project should be completed by next year. Bharat produces 3 more ironclads and 5 major steamships, beginning the era in which Bharat's navy emerges. Enough naval schools have been build and many civilians are press-ganged to serve on naval ships while many of the educated class attend naval schools and the army is continuously worked on. The mass conversion project has continued to yeild largely favourable results, with the demolition of mosques beginning. The remaining muslims continue to migrate to the colonies in Australia to set up new lives. Most of these continue to head to New Bharat. Bharat opens up its border with Persia after its closure many years ago, however only for fleeing hindus. No emigrating muslims will be allowed in and the alliance with Persia is cut, although trading will still continue.
  • Naya Bharat expands 550km inward towards the interior, with more colonizers arriving. Farms contine to produce a small surplus amount.
  • Hindustan expands 1000km south and inward, with better houses built in the main settlement and another small industrial factory set up on the coast.

1848

  • The Vietnamese expand their East Africa colony westwards by 76*50 sq km. The Vietnamese continue to expand industries through out their empire. The Vietnamese assist the Kenians in recovering more of their nation's former territory. The Vietnamese see the latest Nipponese discovery as confirmation for their tradition for comprehensive sanitation. The Vietnamese take the opportunity to establish official areas for the disposal of garbage known as "dumps". These areas are selected because they are far away from water or food sources to prevent contamination.
  • The New Lithuanians expand their New Samogita colony by 25*50 sq km. The New Lithuanians expand their New Ruthenia colony by 25*50 sq km. The New Lithuanians continue improving their native industry.
  • The Taiwanese expand their New Taihoku colony by 16*50 sq km. The Taiwanese continue expanding their industry to catch up with their neighbors.
  • Naples expands their Pahangese colony 2750 square kilometers, helped now by the small steamship portion of their navy. Steamships are becoming more and more common, and many predict they will replace old wooden ships soon. In Tamilia, protests emerge against the Neapolitans for small economic issues. The Neapolitan government violently puts down the protest. This results in riots, which are again put down.
  • Ricasolia improves its economy.
  • Nippon increases the amount of mining being done in the colonies, as well as growing the Nipponese timber industry. Dr. Kōichi Shidōu following the success of his thesis begins a study in the spread of Smallpox, and trying to work out ways to stop the deadly disease from spreading so much. The good doctor stumbles upon something unexpected after he notices different animals react differently to being injected with the blood of people with smallpox, and he concludes that different species of animals have different tolerances to diseases, after he infects the animals with other diseases to test his hypothesis; Dr. Kōichi Shidōu however doesn't know why animals have different tolerances though. Otherwise Korubia expands by (1800*3) 5,400 sq km so that the two parts of the colony are closer together; Satotochi expands by 1000 sq km, and Papua Nipponia expands (1000*3) 3000 sq km in OTL New Guinea island.
  • Ngainkeha expands inland more and Ngainkeha offer to sell there territory on Kangaroo Island to Spain in order to finance the building of Buddhist temples & schools across Ngainkeha.

  • Persia's New Tehran colony expands 75x75 sq. mi. west. New Persia expands by 75x75 sq. mi. The Persian Andes colony expands by 75x75 sq. mi. They ask Brunei for a dynstical union.
  • Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 400km inward, expands Kōshi by 450km, and expands Käwäshiro by 400km. Finland, now just realising this, also warns Burnei about their colony, as it is expanding into Finnish claimed areas they wanted in the Rotterdam Conference. Finland also warns that any supporter of their expansion will have their claims unrecognised, and hints the use of pirates/raiders as well.
  • Hungary's economy continues growing.Meanwhile, King György dies in April, and only has one daughter, Olga, who is three years old. Given this, his older sister Szidónia is asked to become a regent until 1866, but she refuses.the offer is then passed to her younger sister Amália, which subsequently, accepts and is crowned Queen Regent of Hungary in July.Magyar Dél-Amerikabán expands 15000 sq km inland.
  • Egypt updates its military.
  • Uruguay expands 4000 sq km north.
  • Newfoundland expands 12000 sq km inland.
  • Brunei is not bound by the Rotterdam conference and has held territory in Sulawesi for years. Brunei regects the dynstical union with Persia fearing this with take away to much Bruneian soverighty but sends Persia a trade agreement. Brunei expands its holdings on Borneo away from Nepoltian areas but contiues to expand the Sulawesi colony and begins construction on several coastal forts to protect Bruneian intrests in the area.
  • Korea continues to industrialize (Sorry no time for long posts)
  • Sweden supports Finland in the diplomatic row with Brunei an sends a task force to Brunei threatening to blockade the nation and bomb the Imperial Palace. Brunei is allowed the Persian claims only in the Rotterdam Conference as according to the Swedish High Council and any claims on Sulawesi are therefore invalid, The inuit eskimo confederation expands southwards as more tribes sign on and also arrives on the Alaskan west coast. Sweden expands its navy and Wonderlaand expands 15250 sqkm over the interior of the two islands remaining in the Solomon chain.
  • Fjordlaand expands north
  • Russia continues their expanison into Alaska, aswell as Aiding to Establish a system of alliances withing the Aletans, gaining thier favor, with an eventual plan of creating an Aleutan Oblast(or just a plain republic). Military is updated, as certian parties begin their campeigns. The last of the Founders of the Industrialists die this year, prompting leadership debates. After much deliberation, the Senate passes legislature posing the minimum monthly wage as cost of living(survival)+20%, making it 12 Rubles a month. This policy is very much liked by the general urban poor. Collectivism and MArxism spread within the Socialist Party. Mesheryakov thinks about Charles-Louis' offer, and an alliance between Leftist orgonizaitions will work indeed. the Ideas of Public helthcare begin to emerge, but are ignored due to bugetary problems. A bill requiring the governement to submit a budget every year is approved by the Duma, but shot down in the Imperial Council. Industrializaiton, builiding or the Trans-Siberaian Railway continues and the IWD developes a type of rifle that loads cartriges much like the revolver (but this one is one-shot)
  • Bharat's second phase of the railroad construction is completed and all smaller hubs of Bharat are now linked up with the main cites of the country. Bharat produces 4 more ironclads and 5 major steamships. The army is continuously worked on and the army is used to patrol the nation to crackdown on any suspicious activity due to "the project". The mass conversion project has continued to yeild largely favourable results, with the demolition of mosques continuing. The remaining muslims continue to migrate to the colonies in Australia to set up new lives. Most of these continue to head to New Bharat. The opening of the border has enabled hindus to come to Bharat in the thousands. Most of these then head to the colonies, mainly Hindustan where they can begin a new life in peace.
  • Naya Bharat expands 1000km inward towards the interior, with more colonizers arriving. Farms contine to produce a small surplus amount.
  • Hindustan expands 550km south and inward, with fleeing hindus from Perisa arriving and another small industrial factory set up on the coast.

  • The Vietnamese expand their East Africa colony westwards by 76*50 sq km. The Vietnamese continue to expand industries through out their empire. The Vietnamese assist the Kenians in recovering more of their nation's former territory.
  • The New Lithuanians expand their New Samogita colony by 25*50 sq km. The New Lithuanians expand their New Ruthenia colony by 25*50 sq km. The New Lithuanians continue improving their native industry.
  • The Taiwanese expand their New Taihoku colony by 16*50 sq km. The Taiwanese continue expanding their industry to catch up with their neighbors.
  • Neue Brandenburg expands west by 6000 sq km. Expansion is matched (almost) by a huge immigration rate, largely from Germany. Luis Keller is arrested in Wilhelmsburg and brought to NBC. Weltanschaaung raises an uproar, and by the end of the year has 10000 members. Wilhem II is forced to withdraw his hardline policies, and after barely surviving an assassination attempt (and finding out that his minister-president is a member of Weltanshaaung), he gives in, and summons the estates-general. He reestablishes the alliance with Russia, apologizing for ending it, and send troops to Brandenburg to place under the control of the Prussian King. He still, however, refuses to release Keller, leading to the new immigrants in NBC and Wilhelmsburg voting to create their own assembly, called the Volkstag. Much of the military is friendly to the Volkstag, and so the latter are able to create a police force and workhouses for the poor, which the King is powerless to stop. In fear, he orders the nobles to form a militia to defend the countryside.
  • Seeing all the diplomatic tensions with Brunei between Finland and Naples, Nippon suggests clearly showing Brunei what land is claimed by other nations, and then showing where is unclaimed and helping Brunei establish claims to these unclaimed lands. The Shogun see's the Vietnamese policy of "dumps" and the research of Dr. Kōichi Shidōu, and enact the 1849 Public Health Act. This act creates dumps just like the ones in Vietnam, and river pollution becomes a crime. Furthermore factory chimneys are required to be as high as possible so the smog is blown away by the wind, rather than creating a smog which would pollute the city. Otherwise Korubia expands by (1800*3) 5,400 sq km so that the two parts of the colony are closer together; Satotochi expands by 1000 sq km, and Papua Nipponia expands (1000*3) 3000 sq km in OTL New Guinea island.
    • PM Australasian expansion3
      All Persian claims in Borneo have been sold to Brunei, non Bornean Persian claims are still claimed by Persia
  • Ngainkeha expands inland more and Ngainkeha sells there territory on Kangaroo Island to Spain in order to finance the building of Buddhist temples & schools across Ngainkeha. (Note I'm just giving Kangaroo island to Spain, I don't want it as it looks daft Ngainkeha randomly owning that bit)
  • Naples expands their Pahangese territory by 2750 square kilometers onto Borneo. Meanwhile, protests continue in Tamilia, and the Neapolitan government's popularity has reached an all time low. The steamship production continues.
    • Is Tamilia going to start an independance movement soon? If so then Vietnam may want to support them, as the whole Borneo incident may have chilled Vietnamese relations with Naples somewhat.
  • Brunei agrees to sell the Sulawesi colony as long as the Finns agree to help relocate the Bruneians to a new colony. Brunei expands south and east the navy preps for war incase the deal with Finland falls through. Bruneian infastructre and industry are improved.
    • Finland agrees to Brunei's deal and will help relocate the Bruneians to a new colony, and Finland gives 115,000 Finnish Markka to Brunei as well.
  • Persia's New Tehran colony expands 75x75 sq. mi. west. New Persia expands by 75x75 sq. mi. The Persian Andes colony expands by 75x75 sq. mi. They establish a new colony in Southern Borneo, named New Isafan in OTL Manjarmasin.
    • Didn't you give up the rest of the Persian claim to Borneo to Brunei in the sale? And Persia already has a big claim on Australia, maybe you should work on expanding that instead of expanding in an area where there are lots of territorial conflicts
    • New Persia is in Australia, so it is being settled. Also, I only GAVE UP Persian Brunei, not the Persian claims of Borneo.
  • Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 400km inward, expands Kōshi by 450km, and expands Käwäshiro by 400km.
  • The industry continues growing.Magyar Dél-Amerikabán expands 15000 sq km inland.

The opening of the border has enabled hindus to come to Bharat in the thousands and they then head to the colonies, mainly Hindustan where they can begin a new life in peace. The continuous work on the army is tested, and to support the Tamilian uprisings, the army launches a full-scale invasion of Napolian India. They ask for Vietnamese and Nipponese aid.
  • Naya Bharat expands 550km inward towards the interior, with more colonizers arriving. Farms contine to produce a small surplus amount.

  • Haiti builds up its military.
  • Malouinas builds up its military.
  • Ricasolia's population undergoes a population boom. The government works to fight corruption and to improve food production to feed the increasing population. The religious revival is now over, with almost all Ricasolians being members of the Caribbean Church. The Caribbean Church absorbs the Waldensian Church of Isolque as well, and asks the Itsaygahis if they can send missionaries there.
  • Spain thanks Ngainkeha for the part of Kangaroo Island. Construction on the raill network continues apace, with many large cities now linked together. several lines are built side by side, to allow for rapid transportation of cargo, and also the slower progress of passenger trains. spain embarks on a project to upgrade its navy, attempting to reduce sweedens lead over the rest of the world. The millitary is upgraded, and the government works to further improve the economy. New Madrid expands by 4650 Sq Km.
  • Russia updates its military, and expansion continues into Alaska. Attempts are made to strengthen the alliances in the Aleuts to from a nation. the Aleutan Islands are claimed for Russia. Mesheryakov calls for elections next year. campeigning begins on both sides. The first signs of fracturing within the SPRE begin emering. South Novorossiya expands by 15 000 km. The cartrige rifle becomes standard issure for Russian troops. Construction oin the Trans-Siberian railroad continues.
  • Sweden continues upgrading its navy and launches the HMSS Sweden the largest ship ever built and with the largest canons and guns ever installed on a ship. The steel plating of the ship is thickest ever and the ship is a benemoth of the seas. It sails to Asgard where the Russian influence is seen as dangerous. The Inuit-Eskimo Conferation expands to incorparate the eastern half of OTL Alaska. Asgard expands 3050 sqkm down the Aleutians.
    • Do you realise how implausible that is? the population I would give them is maximum 5000, and thats being generous. this is a nomadic people. In quebec i took extremely inhuman tactics to make them sedentary, with extreme determination and descriminaiton, and that took about 10 years. It would be extremely implausible to have those nomads(that travel in no more than in groups of a couple dozen people) form a confederatoin and then expand to incrporate Yukon and alaska in 2 yars! I could do that for the iroquois becasue the framework for tatt condfederation already existed, and all that it needed was centralisation. no nomadic peoples will ever evolve into a naiton-state in less than a year. it takes generations to do that naturaly, and a decade to do that with determinaiton.

Principia Moderni Map 1850

Again Ngainkeha has not been expanded

Neither has Russian Alaska and for some reason Kazahstan has been changed to independant, even after the russians spend approx. 10 years(I gave up after not having the normal stability, im sorrry but 11 makes sense since industrializaiotn counts as economic developement, and was also posted 2 days after i gave up) getting it back to vassal!

Industrialization is not counted as economic expansion for two reasons. It is indirect and hard to qualify. Plus a few nations would be on 60 stability rendering this table null.

I asked a question a while back, and well, we decided that industrial expansion counts. its in one of the Russian war algorithm discussions. probabaly the 1st polsih one or around that. And also, there is no table to render null.

Nortical fishing is underestimated for human kinde.

1 - Ngainkeha expanded. but just for three years, as i added expansion in 1840-1845 and forgot the rest.i will correct it.

2 - I forgot to check who won the Russia-Kazakhstan algorythm, and the last time that i had checked, Kazakhstan was winning.

KAzakhs were winning becasue tehy had all filled out and Russia didnt have theri stability filled out. after stability was put then Russia got their stablitity we winning.

Bruneian borders have expanded since 1845

  • Naples declares war upon Bharat for attacking their colony of Tamilia. They declare the Bharatis the aggressors and that Naples is the victim, and they state that all of their allies, and all good Catholic nations, should aid Naples in putting an end to this war. The Tamilian independence groups, which are now armed and own much of the colony, announce that they recognize the Maharaja of Bharat as the ruler of all the Indian subcontinent. They ask the two former Hungarian colony nations to the west to join in the war. The Pahangese colony expands by 2750 square kilometers into Borneo.
    • Bharat supplies the Tamilians with as many weapons as they can and sets about trying to capture the ports under the control of Naples. They also try to swing the two former Hungarian vasslas to battle the Napolitans.
  • The Vietnamese expand their East Africa colony westwards by 76*50 sq km. The Vietnamese continue to expand industries through out their empire. The Vietnamese assist the Kenians in recovering more of their nation's former territory. The Vietnamese declare that they officially recognize Tamilian independance, and declare that India should be returned to the Indians. While the Vietnamese will not enter the war directly at this point, they will send plenty of supplies and volunteers for the Bharatis and their Tamilian allies. While they do not directly cease diplomatic relations with the Neapolitans they will unofficially "encourage" Vietnamese merchants to cease trade with Naples. They hardly need to "encourage" people at all, as the popular image of the Neapolitans has become thoroughly negative in Vietnam. Most of the Vietnamese think that the Neapolitans are following in the footsteps of the hated Venetians.
  • The New Lithuanians expand their New Samogita colony by 25*50 sq km. The New Lithuanians expand their New Ruthenia colony by 25*50 sq km. The New Lithuanians continue improving their native industry.
  • The Taiwanese expand their New Taihoku colony by 16*50 sq km. The Taiwanese continue expanding their industry to catch up with their neighbors.

    • The Neapolitans state that they will accept no peace but a Bharati surrender.
    • Persian response: It sends an ultimatum to Naples that if it cannot work out a agreement with Bharat withing two years, Persia will join Bharat, and will bring Russia and China into the war.
  • Ricasolia's population continues to grow.
  • Seeing as Naples has bigger fish to fry than who claims what on Borneo and Brunei is now threatened by Persia Brunei expands rapidly along the western coastline of Borneo and deep into central Borneo. Brunei with Finnish help establishes a colony in the Mascarene Islands.
  • Neue Brandenburg sees a revolution when the cities rise up on the side of Luis Keller and Weltanshaaung, who have began expounding collectivist ideals. King Wilhelm II is trapped in his palace and surrenders, only to have many of the Progressive Army (as the Volksbund's military are called) defect, and in a daring escape Wilhelm leads them over into a noble's headquarters in the west. Industrialization continues as the cities are put on a war footing. Both sides ask for foreign intervention on their side from their allies Russia, Finland, Prussia, Naples, and Nippon.

  • Nippon's Shogun Tokugawa Ieyoshi is worried about the recent Ngainkeha calls for independence, and the Shogunate is split over how to deal with the matter, if Ngainkeha did ask for independence would Nippon allow it or oppose it? To make matters worse, thanks to all the political talk about the Ngainkeha problem, liberal politicians notice the much larger amount of political freedom and democracy in Ngainkeha opposed to the ruling feudal military dictatorship of the Shogun in Nippon. People then begin to question this, and calls in Nippon for more political freedom, spread across the land. Fearing a rebellion, Shogun Tokugawa Ieyoshi declares Nipponese neutrality in any current wars, in order to save military force to deal with the potential rebellion. Otherwise Korubia expands by (1,800*3) 5,400 sq km, Satotochi expands by (1,000*3) 3,000 sq km, and Papua Nipponia expands (1,000*3) 3,000 sq km in OTL New Guinea island.

    • do you realise how implausible that is...I just have to fight fire with fire. This naiton is so implausible, that vast territory can just be counteracted by one russina invasion, and all will be taken in oneyear. there is o way that those nomads, living in groups of 40 or so people could form a naiton that fast, or even expand it for that matter!
  • Fjordlaand expands to the Onguayal border.
  • military research continue and Scientific research aswell. IN the recent Russian Elections, the Socialists once again win the eections, now putting mescheryakov's total mandate to 13 years. Mesheryakov considers Charles' request. But in this eleciotn, the Socialists gain only a slim majority of 264 seats, the rest gone to the Polish and Liberal parties. the Industrialists are reduced to a 20-seat membership, taken by the liberals. they think about how to turn themselves around, or get destroyed. the Polish party wins 45/50 polish seats. the Aleuts form a nations in the remaining parts of Alaska and part of the west coast. The EMpress MAria gets sick, and suffers from extreme pain, and some sorts of hellucinations.
    • Read what I posted on the talk page... The nation is too big on the map. It is way smaller on the mainland. Collie took the claims and posted it as the reality. They only occupy the Arctic Islands and the northern coast of Canada, a little inland area of Yukon and half of Alaska.
    • This, and your previous expansion I missed, are both incredibly implausible.
    • Not like the swedes capturing the canadain arctic islands as part of Sweden proper(I mean Alaska as Russia Propper)

The Neapolitan arsenal cannot compensate, as the workers there have gone on strike on account of the economic collapse due to the war. Unable to continue fighting, Naples withdraws all forces from Tamilia and announces that they will no longer fight Bharat. Neapolitans who were living in Tamilia, as well as many Christian converts, flee to Neapolitan Pahang, which is expanded 6000 square kilometers into Borneo. The Neapolitans hold reelections, and the new chancellor, Cambio Occhiochiuso announces that he wishes to repair Neapolitan relations with Vietnam

    • Not. he is clearly copy-pasting. if he wasn't, he would stop expanding Persian Andes... because the colony is locked.
  • The Neue Brandenburg Civil War culminates in a battle on the outskirts of Wilhelmsburg between the rebels and the Finnish supported royal troops. The King wins easily, retaking Wilhelmsburg and entering NBC in triumph. Luis Keller flees to Neue Wilhelmsburg, which expands by 600 sq km. The King thanks Nippon and Finland for their support and executes several remaining members of Weltanshaaung. However, in NBC street fighting ensues between the army and the Progressive Army.
  • The Nipponese pro-democracy protests are put down violently, and scenes quickly turn ugly as the protests turn into riots, and some of liberal Daimyo offer their support to the liberals. Slowly more and more Daimyo join the liberal side, and they demand the Shogun to enact democratic reforms or face being overthrown. The Shogun fearing a loss of his clan's dominance, quickly ushers in the 1851 Democracy Act, which gives the people of Nippon much more political power. This ends the "Tokugawa Bakufu period" and starts the "Democratic Bakufu Period". The liberals are pleased with this, and stop their rebelling; and preparations for the first prefectural elections begin. Nippon colonies expand too, with Shuujin expanding by 800 sq km, Korubia expands by (1,000*3) 3,000 sq km, Satotochi expands by (1,000*3) 3,000 sq km, and Papua Nipponia expands (1,000*3) 3,000 sq km in OTL New Guinea island.

  • Naples works on recovering after the war, with Chancellor Occhiochiuso attempting to repair the Neapolitan international image by abolishing indentured servitude and by expanding the right to vote to less-wealthy Neapolitans.
  • Dravidia works on creating their new nation. They set up a democratically elected assembly, which governs alongside the Bharati Maharaja, and they divide their nation into several provinces, each governed by a mahajhapana. Dravidia establishes religious freedom; however, anti-Catholic feelings are high due to animosity to the Neapolitans
    • The mahajhapanas are asked if they would like to join the cabinet of the mahajhapanas of Bharat and both nations will be treated like one, in other words equally.
    • The Dravidians wish for their own independence, as they don't want to be simply part of Bharat. Thy state that they will work closely with the Bharatisbut they won't merge the governments as they wish to be independent
    • That was not what Bharat meant. The nation will remain independent, it is just so matters of government are simplified.
    • Dravidia agrees to the clarified request
  • Ricasolia recognizes Dravidia.
  • Neue Brandenburg experiences a huge political shift when, after NBC is finally pacified of guerillas, the King experiences an assassination attempt. This seems to make him somewhat less reactionary, and when more riots begin outside the royal palace he gives in and allows the Estates to meet again, with the Volksdiet representing the lower classes. The estates are the nobles, the other landowners, and the Volksdiet. The third is the only that holds actual elections, and it quickly elects a Russian-style socialist faction as the majority.

    • Bharat says they will take a bit of time to decide as the need to work on internal matters first.
  • Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation. Finland also expands Hyvinkää 400km inward, expands Kōshi by 450km, and expands Käwäshiro by 400km. The Republic of Kazami repels the beauharnism ideology as they don't have a clue of what it is and don't care one bit. The Republic of Kazami closes it's borders to Malouinas; and soon begins heavily guarding it's areas with lots of ships so nothing like that happens again. Finland also sends ships to help guard the Republic of Kazami as well. The daughter draws the Suomi-neito standing tall on the large islands (representing the Republic of Kazami) using her power to destroy and drown the Malouinas' ships with the caption 'Varo kivan!' (Finnish for: Beware the nice ones! [Basically what it means is that the Finnish government is usually friendly and peaceful, but can get angry when things go wrong or invasion/foreigners spreading their propaganda in Finland and Finnish territories etc.]).
  • Korea continues to industrialize, with much railway and telegraph lines being laid down. Korea suggests that a telegraph cable be laid across the Strait of Korea with Japan, which would connect the two nations even more.
  • Nipponese liberals take a few ideas from the beauharnism preaching Prince, however the liberals wish to see how their own theories & ideas work out for Nippon before using the ideas of foreigners. (I don't know what beauharnism is, give me some info about it & I'll give it a read to see if it fits in with what I'm planning for liberal Nippon) The first prefectural elections begin with prefectural diets being elected for each one of Nippon's prefectures; and work goes under way for the first lot of Ministerial elections, and the first lot of colonial elections too. Also Nippon puts the Ngainkeha indepedence talks on hold, until the Nipponese elections are finished and there is a new government to discuss independence with. Nippon also agrees to Korea's plan to link the two nations up by telegraph, and the Shogun starts a program to link the whole of Nippon up via telegraph. Finally, Nippon colonies expand as well, with Shuujin expanding by 800 sq km, Korubia expands by (1,000*3) 3,000 sq km, Satotochi expands by (1,000*3) 3,000 sq km, and Papua Nipponia expands (1,000*3) 3,000 sq km in OTL New Guinea island.
    • Is like a mix of communism (AKA classism and collectivism, plus russian socialism) and napoleonism.
  • Ngainkeha accepts the Nipponese suggestion to put the independence talks on hold until the new Nipponese government is elected. This gives Nai O to begin campaigning so that nearly the whole country wants independence, but in a similar way to how Nippon got independence from Vietnam so the two nations remain good allies. Ngainkeha expands inland some more too, and as cotton begins to be grown in the country on a large scale, lots of textile mills begin to open up in the large coastal cities of Ngainkeha. This is also helped by the increase in coal mining to power the mills. Plus while mining for coal, a lot of gold is found to, and Ngainkeha begins to become quite a big mineral exporter, and lots of jewellers set up shop in Ngainkeha creating very fine pieces of jewellery to sell as well.
  • Brunei expands the military focusing on the navy and calvary.
  • Bharat produces 4 more ironclads and 7 major steamships. The army is continuously worked on and better rifles will be implemented and the army will be trained on how to use them.

Many cities in Bharat begin to boom with Dravida coming into a dynastical union with Bharat and job seekers heading north. Trading through the seas is also encouraged by the government as this is seen as a way to help Bharat export native produce. The remainder of the Kingdom of Lanka is convinced to become a vassal of Bharat in light of growing Bharati power as well as for protection from not so friendly powers. The king will also become a mahajhapana of Bharat, joining the king of the former AGC colony as the second king of a vassal to become a mahajhapana.
  • Naya Bharat expands 1000km inward towards the interior, with more colonizers arriving. Farms contine to produce a small surplus amount.
  • Hindustan expands 550km southward, with fleeing hindus from Perisa arriving and another small industrial factory set up more inland this time.
  • The Russian Military is updated, and the public health act is put into place. The federation act is put onto the house, witch would devide the powers alocated to the Duma and Imperial council between the federal and Gubernatorial juristiction. it is rejected, but sombody comes up with the idea that power should be maintained at the lowest level possible. Libertarianism comes into the spectrum as a new political theory. The Russian Empress' sickness progresses, as she shows signs of worsening. doctors give her less than a year to live. Construction of the Trans-Siberain line is nearly complete, and RUssia promotes alliances between the aleuts and expands into alaska. a very large gold veign is struck in chukotka. Russians think that by 1860, they could set up an Aleutan nation to counteract the IEC's expanison(although most of the territory is "claimed" and loose people live and move around it).

  • Dravidia now is organized, and sends its mahajhapanas to the court of the king of Bharat. The Dravidians work on improving their nation, back to how it was before much was destroyed in the war.
  • Brunei sends a trade agreement to Dravidia and expands south. Many more Hindus immigrate to Mauritius and the colony is expanded.
    • Why on earth more hindus would migrate to Brunei when Bharat has one truely hindu colony and the country's official religion is hinduism. As well as this, Persian hindus are coming to Bharat and some then head to Hindustan.
    • These are Hindus from Brunei and Bruneis former colony the major religion of Brunei is Hinduism with some muslims. These Hindus are ones from Brunei itself immigrating for better oppurtunities in the colony not Hindus from Persia or Bharat.
    • Oh. I am pretty sure it had hindus migrating to Brunei. In that case...
    • Bharat asks for an alliance with Brunei seeing that the are a mostly hindu nation. They hope that the two nations can work together and also ask for open trading between nations.
    • Brunei agrees to trade with Bharat but is wary of a full military alliance.
    • Bharat instead asks for a political alliance rather than a military one, recognising Brunei's hesitancy with the military alliance.
    • Brunei agrees to this
  • Neue Brandenburg is shaken up yet again as the death of the king Wilhelm II leads to a time of confusion. The king has no direct heirs so the next king is literally a somewhat philanthropic factory owner (think OTL Carnegie, Gospel of Wealth, that kind of thing) named Adalhard Abedroth, who becomes King Adalhard I. He objects to a magnificent coronation ceremony, and although he still lives in luxury in the royal palace he still fires the majority of his courtiers, including the minister president. Several Beauharnist, Collectivist, and Royalist candidates rise up to fill his place and as the year ends speculation arises as to who will take his place. The country sees industrialization slow down slightly, but expansion continues apace by 6000 sq km.
  • Uruguay expands 8000 sq km inland.
  • Newfoundland expands 12000 sq km inland.
  • Hungary updates its military.Magyar Del-Amerikabán expands 11500 sq km inland.
  • The first colonial & ministerial elections take place in Nippon, with mostly liberals & pro-shogunate representatives coming into power. Political parties also begin to form in Nippon as representatives with similar ideologies become political allies, and begin to band together. The largest party is the Pro-Shogunate conservative party, followed by the liberal party, followed by the Pro-Emperor party, and then a large range of parties with more specialized goals. A few radical communist parties are around too, but they only hold around 20 seats in the whole Nipponese political system, as the ideas of communism have largely been rejected as the Nipponese are still content with the current system, and the Emperor's divine rule. Talks begin with the Ngainkeha government to allow Ngainkeha to succeed from Nippon, and Nippon agrees with the idea, as long as the two nations remain good allies, trade partners, and help each other out in times of need. Plus Nippon colonies expand too, with Shuujin expanding by 800 sq km, Korubia expands by (1,000*3) 3,000 sq km, Satotochi expands (1,000*3) 3,000 sq km, and Papua Nipponia expands by (1,000*3) 3,000 sq km in OTL New Guinea island. The Universities of the Pacific Rim Cooperation Group is set up too, which is a group for universities in the Pacific Rim where they join up, and help each other in research and exchange programs and the like.
  • Ngainkeha agree to the Nippon deal, and Ngainkeha is given independence by Nippon, and inmediately after this Ngainkeha signs the pact of iron with Nippon, so the two nations have a military alliance, numerous trade deals, mutual cooperation in times of war, and the universities of Ngainkeha join the Universities of the Pacific Rim Cooperation Group.
  • China expands its military heavily this year. Meanwhile, the University of Shanghai is established.
  • Finland continues to build up their military, and continue to build and improve some infrastructure and continues industrialisation.

  • Russian continues to expands into Alaska, encourages alliances within the Comunities of Aleuts, and Shows sweden the borders outlined in the Conference of St Petersburg, outlining russia's claims to Alaska and the American West coast. RUssian military is updated, and more advanced steamships and icebreakers(used exclusively by russia), are being used in winter, and the Northeast passage is decide to be maintianed allyear round. The Socialist Party Is thinking about the incorporation of the two parties, but refuses as he does not want radicaly leveling the Nation. The Socialist party encourages Socialist and NEw Socialist(Marxist) movements around the world. THe Socialist party fractures furhter, and It is seen as if Mesheryakov is the only person holding the party together. IN may, the empress Maria dies tragicaly of an unknown illness.

    • Do you know what a dynastic union is? Because you don't just ask for one, you state that the monarch/heir to your throne is searching for a spouse and ask if the other monarch/heir is interested.
    • Changed it. A personal union means a union made through marriage, right?

Some day, we'll see the flags of the true socialism in every pole in land or mst in the sea.

  • Bengal begins an ambitious internal colonization program to settle various marshy areas in the south. The authorities believe that this will improve the socioeconomic well-being of its people. Meanwhile, Naundesa approves a plebescite to transmigrate the entire country to the region of OTL Ecuador, or Songone, a name derived from a myth tracing the Naun language to when early Mon whalers with Russian captains first reached Toeh Ngoa Nyoing via the northeast passage around 1630. Facing an oncoming winter, the crew wished to cut the time traveled by crossing the Laptev Sea. However, a major storm hit when the crew landed on OTL Peschanyy Island. The crew had been accustomed to speak their own respective languages, Mon and Russian, but finding themselves in this situation, they were forced to communicate with each other. The first recorded creole word used was "mochin," for walrus. Upon the arrival of springtime, they left the island, naming it Songone, derived from a corruption of "song hani," or "circular shallow place in the sea." The word "hani" also describes the Equator, on which Songone is located. With agreements from local Mon governors in the south, who remain loyal to New Hanthawaddy, and other local rulers, as well as Sweden, arrangements are made for 160,000 Polarians to settle in Kunukutu, just outside Kitu, and the surrounding countryside. Thus, the former Hanthawaddy and Swedish colonies in Ecuador, as well as the Colombian Swedish colony and the OTL Galapagos Islands, would be placed under Polarian rule.
