Hmm, sign me up as interested in this, but will the nations be any similar to the ones in our world, or will we make the countries and their histories?

You'll make your own nation, with it's own history and culture. There are cultural similarities; for example the nation I intend to play will be Franco-Italian in nation. And there are three continents: Centran (Europe), Faresia (Asia) and Serranthia (Africa).

Here's the example map:

EXAMPLE NATION:





So here are the random rolls for the country I'll play. A few notes:
-- It's got a very small aviation industry, though it's one designer is pretty damn good.
-- Etelia has no rubber resources in the country or colonies.
-- It's middling employment has caused discontent, luckily kept in check by a Censored Press and Local police forces.
-- It has a decent sized and trained navy, but it's army (while large) is poorly trained and abysmally equipped.
-- Etelia's Foreign Minister is a communist, which (unless I intend to start a communist revolution), I should change soon.

Noooooooooooooooooooooo. It's pretty easy. I like randomly rolling because: Less work on me and a bit of a "Here's the situation."

You got an idea for a nation, @Lauder

@Theodorable

Question, how do we know how the provinces are shaped or do we do that ourselves?

They're not on the map, so at this point you can shape them yourselves. Kingdom of Etelia has 5 provinces, so it's moderately sized. France in 1910 would probably have 5 provinces. United Kingdom probably 3 (since an Island). Just go off that for now.

Dropping tentative interest here.

I think (I think) I designed a nation for something similar to this that involved colonialism a while back. Might re-purpose it for this ;)

Sounds good. Since this starts in 1910. Your nation will most likely start with some colonies (pending rolls) or not.

For those wanting a European nation, the continent of Centran has been given provinces.

Geography:


Colonies: None

The fair-skinned people of Saurilia are ones who pride themselves with toiling in the dirt to farm, mine, even sweep city.

Excellent! I'll roll @Murtox first then @Lauder.

Also Murtox. The Naming Conventions is about the name of your citizens.



Some notes on Estaratia:
-- This country is running in the red because of it's immense army, which is almost entirely equipped with brand new equipment. WOW. The Army Equipment isn't "how much of the army is equipped," but "how much of the army has worthwhile equipment."
-- Very weak on the resources, unfortunately, but with high infrastructure Estaratia can have flourishing trade.
-- Fairly decent minister who give good bonuses.
-- A good example of why rolling with a high population isn't always the best. Discontent is rising because there simply aren't enough factories to make goods for the people.
