I am generally good with maps. I'll try to whip up an approximation of everyone's claims thus far after I've worked on my NS.


Thanks.

Two thirds of South America seems a little excessive for a single state. Then again, we have a federated EU.

I feel as though this is an important question for me to ask before I presume it.

What with the breakup of the United States and the federated EU's poor economic and financial status, can it then be assumed that Great Britain is the post-war world's financial leader, and the pound sterling the international reserve currency? I intend on making my state more or less a direct, logical continuation of the present day United Kingdom, taking the drastic changes in the international world into account.

This may help you determining the borders of mine.
The only additions besides these are Croatia and the remainder territories of Romania and Serbia.

<Snipped quote by The Nexerus>

Ok, You know what, here is an idea. @Durandal@Willy Vereb.
Ok Durandal, let Willy get the territories he wants, and the EU can get France. Hows that sound?
I like this idea of course. But it'll depend on Durandal.

So sorry about not getting back to you guys earlier. I'm fine with the concessions of bolded states and l the italicized ones. I guess I'll take France, though my initial reason for not including them or the UK were initially France has less in common with the other nations and splendid isolation, respectively.

Edit: Does anyone want the other Scandinavian countries?

I'm playing up splendid isolation big time.

Just to be clear: you're fine with all of Willy's territorial requests, then? Bold and italicized alike? You will gain France, in consequence.

I only care if you want the Baltics or Moldova. Cause then we'll have war. At the moment the Soviet Empire only has Ukraine and Belarus, though.

I am fine with his claims, yes. Makes more sense logically in a way. Both bolded and italicized, if he wants the italics that is. As to whether or not I actually want France, ubdecided.

@Mihndar
Nothing in the Baltic Countries other than Poland at the moment, if that even counts.

You're Russia anyways, so you'd never get through Finland.

It'd be interesting to see someone playing as a united Scandinavia, especially given the fact that they wouldn't have all of that juicy Norwegian oil.

Oy. For your information Finland was part of the Russian Empire for more than a century.

Wow, this kind of has exploded since I posted in the int check. Anyway, here's my WIP nation sheet. It contains some more updates since initially posted in the int check.

WIP:

Nation App
Legal Nation Name (Such As United Soviet Socialist States of America):
The Caliphate of Instanbul

What Areas Do You Control (Territories):
Turkey, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Isreal, Sinai, Egypt, Iraq

Flag or Banner (National and Political):



Political Party (What Party leads the Nation):
Sunni Brotherhood

Type of Government (Easy Pz):
A Caliphate. A type of theocratic autocracy where the highest religious leader (Caliph) is also the highest political leader. The Caliph is the Chosen representative of Allah in the mortal world. The Shura, a gathering of community leaders elects the Caliph for life. Upon the Caliphs death, all the community leaders gather to choose the next Caliph. It is the Sunni Brotherhood party who presents the possible candidates to the Shura.

Military (How many People and Military and Main Generals):

The caliphate's regular military is divided into 3 branches. Army, Air-force and Navy. The navy includes the marine corps. The Caliphate conscripts every able bodied man aged 17 into a 5 year service. After their initial service the conscripts can join the military as a career soldier. The higher ranking officers and special forces units consists of career soldiers. Next to the official military forces the Caliphate has a paramilitary wing of radical islamists recruited from all over the world known as the Martyr Brigade.











Martyr Brigades
The martyr brigades is a multinational fundamentalist paramilitary organization with the aim of adding other territories to the Caliphate. It consists of radical Islamic insurgents who are trained in the Caliphate to conduct a-symmetric warfare and terrorism against the infidels. Recruits from all across the world join this organization and setup local cells to further the spread of the true Islam within their own country. Its idiology teaches its members that it is the duty to wage jihad upon all the infidels until the entire world is united under one Caliphate.

Productions (What your nation Produces):
Oil, gas, agricultural products, industrial manufactured goods, Iron. Another great source of income to the Caliphate is the exploitation of the Suez Canal and the Bosphorus strait. Countries and companies have to pay special tributes to the Caliphate in order to make use of the sea lanes.

Due to the extremely fundamentalist interpretation of the Quran, sharia and other Islamic works the capitalist banking system has been replaced by Islamic banking which does not charge interest on their loans. Also the country is closed to all international companies that are not run by the Islamic banking principles. This has a negative impact on the countries economy.

History of the Nation (Easy Pz):

Main Race (What is your State Race + Racial Demographics):
Turks: 48 %
Arabs: 42%
Other: 10%

Main Religion (What is your State Religion + Religious Demographics):
Radical Sunni Islam. The Caliphate endorses a very radical version of the Sunni Islam. It forces everyone within the state to convert to this form of Islam. Religious minorities have been subjugated to extreme violence and genocide. Any other form of religion is prohibited by the state. People who refuse to convert can be punished by death of sold into slavery. Most people who identify with other religions than the Sunni Islam are slaves owned by religious fighters and leaders.

The United Kingdom of Greater Britannia


Legal Nation Name:
The United Kingdom of Greater Britannia

What Areas Do You Control?:
The current territories of the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland; Calais (in France) and a small, undefined and fluctuating area around it; the Faroe Islands; Gibraltar; and Iceland (although the interior is only nominally under British control - the coast is, however, under London's direct administration.) Other Overseas Territories have either been annexed by other powers (a motive for new British expansionism) or are too isolated to be governed directly from London. Britain seeks to re-establish control over these lost territories.

Flag or Banner:


Political Party:
British New Imperialist Party (a radicalised merger of elements of today's Conservative and UKIP parties. These two parties continue to exist but are much weaker and less influential)

Type of Government:
Constitutional Monarchy and Parliamentary Democracy

Military: 250,000 (approx.), and rising.

Productions:
Oil (from North Sea), Steel, Shipbuilding, Automobiles, limited satellite industry based in Scotland, export of wind-generated electric power to other European nations (if any others still exist).

History of the Nation:
Will be completed and refined if/when other European nations join.

Will be along the lines of economic devastation after the Third World War giving rise to extremist parties in an unstable British state (still including Scotland after the socialist policies of SNP failed and drastically weakened both the interior Scottish economy and that of the rest of the United Kingdom, gaining support for continued union with England to prevent Scottish collapse). These extremist groups gained support for much the same reasons as the fascist powers of the 20th century rose to power. Fortunately, the Constitutional Monarchy (still intact at this time) preserved democracy by refusing point blank to sign any proposals by Parliament to abolish the system, both out of genuine concern for the well-being of the British people and out of the expectation that any dictator would seek to remove the monarchy as an opposition and counterbalance to their rule. To protect the monarchy, the Queen issued an order as her last act before she died, re-creating the Royalist forces of the English Civil War. They were to again represent the interests of the monarch, but act only as bodyguards against treasonous aggression.

Since then, elements of the far right have crept into Parliament but are kept from absolute power by the remaining, less radicalised parties and the influence of the monarchy. This has not prevented, however, a significant increase in military spending and militarisation and a more aggressive foreign policy - not opposed by most MPs as Britain lacks the resources to become self-sufficient and a significant world power.

Ultimately, Britain seized control of Eire, the Faroes and Iceland, and consolidated British holdings on the Isle of Man, the Channel Islands and Gibraltar by ingraining them into the United Kingdom itself.

Main Race:
White British (85%)
Black African/Commonwealth/British (3%)
Asian/Asian British (2.3%)
Other (9.7%)

Main Religion:
Christianity (professing) (65%)
No Religion (25%)
Islam (5%)
Other (5%)

Other:
- Head of State - King William V (Her Majesty the Queen, Prince Philip and Prince Charles all perished in the Third World War)
- Head of Government - Prime Minister Joseph Blakeney

Alright. The United Kingdom, Ireland, and all British overseas territories and Crown dependencies are hereby claimed. Tack on Newfoundland, Cyprus and Iceland as well.


...And speaking of which, just more or less finished. Still need to work out the military, though.

It would be one of the few Powers from the Pre-WW3 World (Along with Russia) that would continue to be united and powerful.
