Nice. I'll actually use that for Eisenkreis until I can get something better up. Assume that anything on the Germany page is in service in the Eisenkreis military.

Well i increased my population after i realized that there was no WW1 so not a largue part of the male population died which is equal to more population,but following the advice i decreased it to 186 millions .

Now there is IC yey , i will start writing my post

<Snipped quote by Murtox>WW1 loses were horrible, especially if combined with the diseases which took even more lives but this almost only effected Europe.
Your nation is a third world country which modernized just recently.
Granted, India had the population of 200+ million and their size roughly correlates to yours, so yeah.
I don't mind your population, though.
Especially not because this means I'm even less of a global superpower, a status I don't want for Yllendthyr to be.
At least not at the moment. Many things can happen and some nation may even conquer half the globe so it's difficult to make comments about the future.

<Snipped quote by Alfhedil>Anything but jet planes, I suppose.
By GM fiat they're being suppressed for now.

On a different note, how far is Eisenkreis on the "German WW2 Tech Tree"?
I mean the date is 1939 but Voltus already said that we are at 1943 or later levels in terms of technology.

I would like to think that we're generally at 1939-1940 but have a few things ahead of time here and there, mostly specialized weapons technology which can easily be blamed on an arms race between the major powers.

Also, all of my stuff is stolen from the Soviet Union and Greece, for an odd compilation.

I'd say I'm like 3/4 of the way through my post. At about 16,000 characters long right now.

<Snipped quote by Cyclone>I'll wait for your response, then.
That may give me more fuel to write about.
I'll be honest and say that the bombings in the first post would barely bother the Emperor and he'd just say the local forces to take care of it themselves.
I actually invented a few additions to the bombings' effect just to avoid me ignoring it as "locals stirring up trouble again".
I may also comment a few on Velikaya's speech and then have my officials meet with Hambria who appears to need my technical experts.
I already discussed a non-aggression pact with them so they are a slight bit like allies to me.
Without them I could never hold the colonies in the Zanshir Islands, for example.
Because I pretty much travel through their turf.

<Snipped quote by Willy Vereb>

Are you going to have your forces end up skirmishing with the Tin, as suggested by Voltus, or will it be a more muted reaction?

<Snipped quote by Mihndar>I doubt I'll be fighting Tin unless it provokes me.
Bombings happened on both sides, causing equal damage. It's obvious that whoever attacked it was enemies with both Yllendthyr and Tin.
After analyzis it'd be determined that military grade explosives were used and the kind which may not even be standard for either Tin or Yllendthyr.
So yeah, this whole plot is actually rather transparent.
Somebody either infiltrated Zanshir islands or supplying local rebels with weapons.
The question is who?
If the explosives are something Yllendthyr uses then it could be a rebel element in the local Drefgiad.
If the explosives are foreign then my first suspect is KalMea because I know they deal with advanced military grade explosives.
I could also suspect Avalia but they would only really attack Tin and they might be almost happy I have a presence in Zanshir.
And so on.

Generally it's just that a couple of bombs damaged buildings and killed people across the borders. It would certainly increase tension between the local forces but this alone won't be enough to cause war.
If Zanshir openly rises up against the two empires then it may even cause me to slightly cooperate with Tin for a while.
With hundreds of thousands of soldiers staging it's quite obvious that any kind of rebellion in the islands is bound to fail.
Long story short, you need more to actually cause a war.

I expected something more insidious which could've ended up with either side blaming the other. In addition I kinda overestimated the effects.
So yeah, Yllendthyr's response would be that another source of annoyance showed its head.
Whether these events later escalate into war or not depends on how all the other nations would react, IMO.

If the explosives are foreign then my first suspect is KalMea because I know they deal with advanced military grade explosives.

<Snipped quote by Willy Vereb>

Figuring out that this was a plot to turn the two sides against eachother seems fairly simple. Military grade explosives going off on both sides.

The only people who could profit from that are rebels or people against imperialism (*cough* P.R.K. *cough*). So, perhaps the evidence does not point directly to PRK, but it certainly does put the possibility of their involvement on the table.
