If you do end up going with the western spot, don't feel at all obliged to relinquish that island colony we had in common. It would be a good plot device.

I think I'm going with the Eastern claim but I can still claim the smaller island in the same chain so we can still use it as a plot device

Sounds good. You're still pretty close to me with the Eastern claim, so I'd also be willing to write history with you.

How about somewhat hostile relations and a history of our nations sending privateers and pirates against each other? Historically Japanese pirates were a thing and they caused hell for Korea and some other nations on the Pacific, so it would fit with Yamatai's theme. Voltus even mentions a history of pirates plaguing Ventium before they modernized their navy and secured the coastlines, maybe those could have been your pirates?

-Has flash back to another NRP-

I'll accept the fact that Yamatai Pirate raise hell on high waters for other nations, but they aren't privateer or hired by the Domain. It could be that Yamatai lacks the resources to deal with them or simply doesn't care. Also, given the time period, I would think that pirates have very little influence in this age since Yamatai would also have created some rule during/while modernization that prohibited most people from carrying weapons on them. :l

I debate the opposite, piracy could be massively influential. Especially in a time period when international trade would be picking up and every nut and bolt is valuable.

Pirates are still a thing today, in the real world. Parts of Asia and Africa are plagued by them. And yes, the reason I thought to ask was because I remember how much you loved your Ryukyuan pirates.

Of course in a modern setting your pirates probably wouldn't be raiding and burning coastal villages, and they probably wouldn't be sanctioned as actual privateers during peacetime. I was just envisioning a situation where many of your citizens own private ships that they use for piracy on other nations (specifically mine), with little fear of punishment from their own government due to its poor relations with mine.

Hmm....

I think I will be using my Ryukyuan pirates then and run them from a costal city called Roanapur. I could also use them as a guard fleet for the contested island colony.

-runs off to draw up some contracts-

Tossing up a claim here, the orange is the main nation, and the purple is a neighboring nation that was brought under their rule about a decade ago.

We need to adjust our frontiers to avoid any conflict , but if you want we can make that a disputed zone and then things (O.O) , i personally want to avoid any conflict so lets adjust our frontiers ok?

PD:The region where our two frontiers colide is in the chain of mountains which separates both of our nations

@Chenzor I believe that the desert you are referring to has been taken but I think there is another small one across the sea.
