Those are some densely populated islands. I feel perhaps too densely populated.

@Mihndar

Ya, I think that's way too many people for the islands. They are, afterall, just being colonized. I doubt anyone is lining up to ship over there.

@Mihndar

Actually you are right.
I measured it and my territories on Zanjir are circa 1/18th that of the Yllendthyr mainland.
Let's make it 1/20th.
That means those colonies have the population around 7 million.
On the other hand I estimated the size of my other colonies wrong. They're together 1.5 times larger than Zanjir.
So my colonies would have the combined population of around 17 million.

@Hael

There are natives living on these islands. The colony was generally a misinformer during this era.
They were closer to provinces of conquered nations.
Conquest either through the force of arms, plain influence or both.

Yeah, if you read my section on population it briefly mentions there being "a few million in the Zanjir Islands" so I'd say that 20-30 million in just your part is a bit...unprecedented. But to be fair these islands are rather big, and your elves probably haven't been committing massacres/supressing revolts as much as Tin, so you wouldn't have killed nearly as many of the natives.

In any case, it doesn't matter. A large amount of those natives aren't considered citizens (or people) by the Sultanate and therefore were not in my population count. Just my way of hitting two birds in one stone: staying vague so I don't have to figure out exactly how many people there are, and showing just how much it sucks to be under occupation by Tin.

As in for occupation, given the islands' isolation I had imagined the natives to be really primitive. Think the Maori native to New Zealand. They never had seen or used guns until they fought Tin's missionaries and colonists and stole some civilian-class firearms.

@Voltus_Ventus
Could you please replace the map on the first page of the OOC with the one I just posted late last page?

@Murtox

Total Population:

286,547,467

Murtox

Um...

[Cyclone]

What? Just the other day his nation had a population of like 126,000,000 I thought

Edit: Is everyone increasing their population?

@Cyclone

Voltus increased his from 70 to 80, and me from 80 to 90, which I feel are both appropriate for our size.

Everyone else's is the same, though I should think Hambria should raise theirs considering 15 million is small even in comparison to Dong Wei, and yours for the reasons we mentioned.

Murtox's was much better where it was, at something like that, I have no idea when he increased it to that.

[Willy Vereb]

I actually decreased my population by reducing the number of people living in colonies.
Now my total population is somewhere around 160 million.

[Hael]

Don't worry about it too much, you are all about to have a dramatic population drop.

But, honestly, I think it makes more since now that we're raising our populations. It seemed odd for such a developed world to have so few people (relatively, I mean)

[Cyclone]

I'm making progress on my first post...slowly but surely...

I've been away from home for the past four days and until I get back on Sunday I have to type everything on a phone or iPad. I always spend a really long time trying to make a good opening post, and typing like this only exacerbates the difficulty.

Anyways, I'm going to try to have it up today. Ambitious goal, but it will give me motivation to finish.

[Murtox]

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

[thegreenleafe]

@Mihndar Do you think 50 Million is good?

[Meiyuuhi]

@Mihndar Do you think 50 Million is good?

@thegreenleafe

Sounds about right.

[Alfhedil]

I'll be working on a post when I'm off, largely to detail the current state of the Hegemony.

[Raijinslayer]

Anybody know a good site for details on all the weapons for the time period we're in?

@Mihndar

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.

[Hael]

My I.C. post will be up within the next 27 hours, 12 minutes, and 3 seconds.

If it's up even one second later, I will sacrifice my life to atone.
