Alaska's oil reserves are pitiful. Most of Alberta's oil reserves are currently technological unrecoverable, but being that this is 2050 and there has (I would assume) been sufficient technological advancement, all or most of it is now open to extraction. With that in mind, Alberta's oil reserves are estimated at somewhere around 1.7 trillion barrels—more than the entire rest of Earth combined.
Alas. I guess that teaches me to read a few posts before I spend time on an app :3
I might do Japan, or, as MetalLover suggested, United Scandinavia.
I made a point of leaving Australia and New Zealand open. Perhaps you could adapt your NS to fit there? 'Greater Australia' instead of 'Greater Britannia'?

Kind of fancy doing a small island nation establishing an overseas empire to acquire resources. Perhaps just New Zealand, maybe after annexing parts of coastal Australia, seeking to bring the Indonesian archipelago under its sway.
Consider New Zealand and Australia reserved, though I probably won't claim all of Australia, just the east coast.
Australia is a small island nation by population even if not by area. It seems silly to me to be cutting Australia into portions.
I am glad I chose not to claim either Australia or Kiwiland, though. Figured you'd still want to join in this after I took the UK from you, and also figured your NS would be easiest to adapt to Australia and/or New Zealand.

Fictional History
TBA
Politics/Society
As its name suggests Neo Hungaria is a monarchy ruled by their king. The current regent is Mathias III, aged 42. He's the son of the late king Reinhard von Croy and direct descendant of the Arpád Dynasty. He was born in Belgium but spent most of his life in Hungary and later adopted the name Korona Mátyás (Mathias Crown). The main decision-making body of Neo Hungaria is the Parliament which is mostly dominated by the right-wing Hungarian Unity Novation (HUN) party albeit their authority is far less absolute compared to the past. In every four years the members of the Parliament are decided by vote although the system isn't completely clean. Hungarian is the the country's official language albeit given the large diversity of ethnicities and nationalities within Neo Hungaria they also support schools in other languages and people can do administrative duties in up to 11 tongues. Multi-culturalism is prevalent albeit Hungarians subtly still enjoy some preferential treatment.
Economy
Neo Hungaria remained neutral through the entire length of WW3 which allowed them to survive these years relatively intact. Their neighbors were not so lucky and as Neo Hungaria conquered them it also had an impact on their economy. Their conquest was fueled by nationalist propaganda about restoring Hungary of the past yet in effect it also bore strategic importance. Many of the old kingdom's richest agricultural fields and allocation of natural resources were held by foreign countries. Reparations and war-waging costs were expensive but turned out to be rewarding on the long run. With these Neo Hungaria became an economic powerhouse compared to the rest of Europe. They have rich mountains abundant in materials, oil fields and excellent farmlands. Due to the latter they also invested considerable effort in producing various biofuels thus allowing them to be close to self-sufficient. Export of food and materials is one of their largest source of income.
Even prior to WW3 Hungary was keeping pace with other nations when it came to science and technology. This only accelerated after the formation of Neo Hungaria. The nation's economy multiplied more than tenfold and this had a drastic impact on technology and industry. Nowadays Neo Hungaria is one of the most developed nations in the world.
Military
Ever since its conception Neo Hungaria put emphasis on their military and with a good reason. Even after its numerous territorial acquisitions Neo Hungaria was surrounded by giant nations that threatened their existence. As such compared to its neighbors Neo Hungaria is more militarized and their military expenses (along with R&D) reach as high as 21% of their budget. Along with the technological and industrial boom, Neo Hungaria also devoted great resources into arming their forces with only national products. This resulted in a temporarily setback as the industry for making weapons was yet to be finished but by the 2040s this idea became a reality.
Name: Bocskai III-V2 Classification: Stealth-Capable Light Battle Tank Manufacturer: FÉG-ARMY Rollout Date: 2044 (original), 2047 (current variation) Crew: 3 Length: 7m (~10m with the gun forward) Width: 3.4 m Height: 2.6 m Weight: 18.2 metric tons (22.6 tons with extra armor kits) Armor: CNT-BNT composite modular armor Engine: FÉG TURBO-900C Multi-Fuel Turbine Engine (899hp/670kW) Maximum Speed: 120 km/h, up to 85 km/h offroad Maximum Range: 1700 km Main Armament: FÉG 120mm L/70 Multi-Stage Cannon (16x3 ammo, RoF: 6-40RPM depending on mode) Co-Axial Gun: FÉG-M41 10mm Machinegun Secondary Weapon: Csepel-Manfréd Modular Remote Controlled Weapon System (various loadouts) Active Protections: FÉG PL-100 laser defense system (100kW), Smoke grenade launchers, FÉG ORS-4B anti-missile package (includes targeting jammers and anti-projectile launcher ports linked to complex sensors)
Light and advanced tank and the chief fighting vehicle employed by the Royal Hungarian Army. Its predecessor the Bocskai Tank was just a license-built version of the Polish PL-01. But following this subsequent versions constantly upgraded the tank to the extend that the Bocskai III tank is practically a whole different vehicle. The most notable difference is the new full-CNT chasis which improved protection while also decreasing weight, making the tank incredibly light and easy to transport. Though without dense heavy metal frame the armor only offers limited protection against APFSDS rounds. Another focus was on the tank's stealth. The Bocskai III uses the 3rd generation of the PL-01's thermal and radar stealth system and in standard combat situations and from sufficient distance this makes the vehicle practically unetectable. Newest addition is the Bocskai III's active camouflage system which by using the CNT's electronic properties can allow the tank to literally change colors, thus mimicking the surroundings. While this is obviously nowhere close to invisibility it works rather well from standard engagement distances. The Bocskai III also has the latest generation of passive and active protection systems which by the second variation includes a PL-100 laser point defense. Not to replace anti-missile defenses the laser works the best against distant or slow-moving explosive warheads. It can also double as an anti-infantry weapon although overusing the system can be damaging. Lastly the tank has a 120mm gun using the latest liquid propellant shells. Because this alone wouldn't be enough to defeat the latest armors the Bocskai III's cannon has the option for multi-stage acceleration where the side caverns of the barrel are filled up with extra propellant which would be controllably released as the projectile travels. The process takes roughly 8-10 seconds to prepare but the extra power is guaranteed to worth it.
Name: Toldi IVe Classification: Main Battle Tank Manufacturer: MAVAG Rollout Date: 2041 (original), 2048 (current variation) Crew: 3 Length: 7.45m (~12m with the gun forward) Width: 3.6 m Height: 3.2 m Weight: 48.8 metric tons Armor: Laminate Honeycomb Composite Modular Armor Powerplant: MAVAG W16SH-3600 Liquid-cooled Turbodiesel Engine (2222hp/1657kW) Maximum Speed: 90 km/h, up to 64 km/h offroad Main Armament: FÉG 160mm L/60 Gun (30 RPM with autoloader, 3x12 shells) Co-Axial Gun: FÉG-M41 10mm Machinegun Secondary Weapon: Csepel-Manfréd Modular Remote Controlled Weapon System (various loadouts) Active Protections: Smoke grenade launchers, laser/radar warning and jammers, FÉG ORS-5 defense system (incorporates various sensors while having the combination of explosive, projectile and laser based interceptors)
While the Bocskai tanks are innovative, cheap and effective in warfare, there are several situation where the army requires a typical MBT for the job. As such Neo Hungaria developed the Toldi IV main battle tank. Named after a Hungarian knight famous for his strength and valor the Toldi IV is an advanced fighting vehicle with the latest weaponry and protection. 140-150mm guns are dominating tank battles for decades now. MAVAG and FÉG went a step further by chambering the new cannon at 160mm. The increased diameter offers extra power but more importantly it allows the use of more diverse types of shells and gun-launched missiles. Neo Hungary also developed their own unique armor system which is relatively light while offers great degree of protection. It's tough and enduring, its microscopic BN honeycomb plates being immune to the "multiple hit problem" ceramic panels suffered. The armor was also made with the future possibility of irradiated environments and directed energy weapons in mind. Of course the Tolid IV also features the latest electronics, sensors and countermeasures with the E-variant debuting with the FÉG ORS-5 system with coverage and response time far better than most contemporary systems. All of these together makes the Toldi IVe a powerful but expensive tank when compared to the Bocskai III-V2.
As you can guess this is still very much work in progress. For some reason I always have the most problem with writing up history for my NS.
@The NexerusI just read your NS again and it's kind of a headscratcher for me that how would England survive WW3 relatively unharmed? They are one of top nations thus it also earns them priority from other nations after the obvious customers like Russia, China and of course the USA. Even if you quit the EU I can't see your nation getting away from a near-civilization ending war free. Hungary or Ethiopia can have the excuse of being pretty much irrelevant. Britain wouldn't be so lucky. Either way if there's any global superpower wouldn't that be the new Soviet Union with combining Russia and China and anyone nearby? Their economy might have issues but the fact they are easily the single largest country can easily compensate for that.
That being said this almost feels like nitpicking because in the end it doesn't matter how grand X nation is stated to be. What matters is how we play them.
The United Kingdom did not aggress and was not aggressed upon. It's that simple.
Area doesn't translate into GDP. Modern day Russia is the world's largest country and largest oil producer, and still manages to have a smaller economy than Italy.
I'd also like to add that the United Kingdom isn't this world's superpower in the same manner that the United States is the real world's superpower. The superpower designation that I used in my NS is based on their having the largest economy at present. They do not have the same unending influence that real world America enjoys.
The United Kingdom did not aggress and was not aggressed upon. It's that simple.
It's just that it's not that simple. The british isles are a strategic possession, so even if the UK tried to make a point of neutrality during the war, it seems difficult to believe that nobody would attempt to occupy it. Plus, assuming that that's true, and no one invaded the UK, any nuclear strike in western europe would have affected the British Isles. Also, since it's not clear yet under what circumstances each country ended up after the war,how can we say that the pound sterling was the international reserve for currency?
Yeah, you can't just refuse to take part in the war. If things would be so easy you can bet that there wouldn't be quarter as much war. Brits are important on the political, economic and all around a big player in the world. If WW3 breaks out they can't just stand around, not with the current globalized world. If all you need to survive a huge scale war to just refuse to participate in it then you can bet how many people would choose that.
Any country being the one that previously had control of my nation? I'm thinking the Second Ethiopian Empire, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, or The Greater European Confederation would all be good candidates, simply because I doubt my country would be strong enough to break away from any of the other countries. I'm not saying that those counties are weak, I'm just saying that if any countries would give my country independence without too much of a struggle, it would be one of those three.

Considering that I own territory right next to you it isn't entirely unlikely for my country to have expanded into your lands only to have lost control of it due to rebellion and being force to pull out of the region? If you are interested then let me know. We can discuss the history a bit together.

History of the Nation :
Since 2015 most of South America was developing in order to achieve the first world standarts and they was doing well thanks to the creation of trade blocks and Free Trade Agreements with the world powers , in that time there was only two major trade blocks in South America : The CAN and the Mercosur , the CAN was integrated by Peru , Bolivia , Ecuador and Colombia & the Mercosur was integrated by Brazil , Venezuela , Chile , Brazil , Uruguay and Paraguay .The less succesfull of them was the CAN which was only the shadow of the Mercosur.
This situation lasted until 2022 when in Peru a big economic boom followed by a baby boom made the Peru economy stronger than most nations , this happened thanks to foreign investment and new policies applied by a new goverment which wasnt corrupt , but it wasnt until 2030 that Peru could be considered a first world country , for this time Peru was the mayor economic power in South America surpassing Chile , Argentina , Colombia , Venezuela and Brazil together .
In 2030 when the war started most of South America maintained neutral , in this Peru saw a oportunity to supply the world powers in this time of war which only increased even more the economic power of Peru , but to increase its economy Peru made a new economic block called the SAEU (South American Economic Union ) which was very similar to the current European union , Peru made the offer to all south american countries but only Ecuador , Bolivia , Paraguay , Uruguay , Chile and Argentina , joined the SAEU . From that time to 2043 Peru helped the economies of the members of the SAEU and enforced certain rules to mantain the economic balance , but this rules became more intrusive and at 2046 the SAEU almost looked like a total union instead of only a economic union , most of the couldnt even protest because of the Peru military force and Black Ops operations.
In the year 2049 the SAE was formed all the member countries of the SAEU signed a treaty in which they became one country , with this the SAU was formed and with it the world saw a new alliance ruled by Peru and it is one of the big countries in the world scene , even still modernizing some parts of the old nations but the with only Peru it is already a power to be recognized.

@MurtoxLooks good. Just a few things to fix. 2030 is when the war ended, not its start. Aside from maybe the GM nobody knows how long WW3 went on. Personally I bet it's only a few years. Also I think you may want to kick that Union together a bit sooner. Things take time to sink in.
