Nice!

Took way too long to remember this

Ottomans comming soon

Name: The Ottoman Empire, Osmani, Turkey

Appearance:


Allegiance: Central

Personality: Osmani enjoys living a rather lavish and hedonistic lifestyle, even in the face of her increasingly fragile realms of territory decay. She has a large, pompous personality, commanding a huge presence. While her time has come to pass, Osmani still carries herself like the great power she used to be.

Likes: Osmani enjoys very lavish foods, particular over the top decadent things such as stuffed melon, rose serbet, and other things such as these. Her greatest love is Coffee, which she drinks with a side of Lokum; but if she wants something more hearty, she drinks the yogurty drink known as Ayran. Osmani enjoys tormenting Armenia, using him as a servant or just a punching bag. She is also very proud of her religion, that being Islam, and takes great pride in her position of Caliphate.

Dislikes:
Osmani has hated the fact that her once vast territories are falling apart, with many nations that she once claimed dominion over now free. She has a particular hatred of Greece, who is something of an arch-nemesis of hers. She has also hated the fact that her decline is coming with the rise of the West.

Special Talent:

Hail to the Caliph!: Osmani holds the prestigious title of Caliph, meaning that she theoretically has the highest dominion over all Muslims in the world. At her call, Osmani can declare Jihads and urge other nations following Islam to rise up and declare war on her enemies and provoke insurgency of Islamic nations under the authority of other nations. In practice, however, it's usually less effective

Kayser-i Rum: The amount of territory and other nations that Osmani has subjugated is vast, comparable to the Roman and Byzantine Empires. While those territories have vastly shrunk over time, Osmani is still in control of a respectable amount of territory.

Weaknesses:

Sick Man of Europe: Osmani has been in very rapid decline from her golden age long ago and has since begun to stagnate technologically. Her economy, industrial sector, and military technology are quite pitiful compared to the great powers of Europe.

Nationalism: Osmani fights against the desire of those nations under her yoke yearning for their own freedom.

Familial Relationships:
Osmani has the greatest familial relationships with other Turkic nations, who have fallen under Russian subjugation. She has a more distant relationship to Iran and Mongolia by way of her ancestors, Seljuk and Timurid. She considers all of the Balkan nations to be like adoptive children or siblings, even if they don't return the sentiment, but generally does not interact with them much.

Particular relationships:

Armenia: Osmani is a very abusive host to Armenia. She routinely mistreats him simply for her own enjoyment.
Greece: Osmani and Greece have by far the most vitriolic relationship, with very active and aggressive hatred for each other.
Arabs: Osmani has a mixed relationship with the Arabs, viewing them as fellow Muslims, but also looking down on them as well.

Other:

@Nerevarine lol another girl for the central power XD

@TalijaKey
All girls bit like one or two and a half guys, and one lone freedom eagle

@Nerevarine accepted!

The first IC is up!... And I can't say I'm most pleased with it, it's a little short, but I accidentally posted it so there's nothing I can do now but hastily edit it, but it's good enough I guess. (He says, crying)

Well, war will start early I feel. Too bad, I was expecting some pre-war banter with the others and a naval dick contest between Germany and Britain.

@Wernher
I wish America could join that. He'd surely win, if only fit that pesky isolationism

Let the talks begin!

So, so far, everything is exactly like the real world.

Nobody gives a fuck about Bosnia.

@Wernher it can still happen, we have at least a few months yet.

I can't help but appreciate @Nerevarine's writing style. Something about it just feels right.

Well that was fast, barely a day and already most everyone's posted.

See what I did there?

@Wernher I think I'm in love.

I'm getting Serbia out of the picture so you entente members all can focus on interacting now that you're all in the same place. That's my focus right now.

@bluetommy2
America don't take no shit!

OOOOOO CANADA

FUCK EVERYONE ELSE I'M GOING HOME TO START PISSING ON HANDKERCHIEFS.
