@Treshan If you're going for a Leninist inspired government, your Bolshevik stand-ins i.e. the vanguard party would be governing the country at this period as it is too early for the organs of government to fade away completely. From your description at this juncture you are either on the verge of fighting your Mensheviks stand-ins and the Anarchists or if you want to forgoe the whole civil war thing the Party would be debating how to develop the economy after the turbulent formative years of the Revolution. Left-wing members of the Party, would push for state control over the allocation of all outputs i.e. what later became known as Stalin's Five Year Plan whilst conservative members of the Party would advocate a state-run capitalist economy.

Also deciding if the Party is going to advocate World Communism i.e. The Comintern is probably also important as in this game the rest of player states might not care too much for your support of communist revolutionaries within their borders.

@The Spectre Oh, nice another Emirate. This will be fun.
Alright here goes nothing...

Nation Name: Emirate of Alijabel Almuqaddas

Head of State: Emira Fathiyya

Demonym: Almutasalliqin

Brief Description: There was a time centuries ago it said when verdicts issued from the atop the Holy Mountain shook the entirety of creation, but this once vast cohesive desert empire is little more than a relic of its former glory; nowadays it is a technological backwater made up of a loose collection of former client states that is ready to come apart at the seams.

A divisive ruler lurks in the halls of the once opulent palace atop the Holy Mountain; the first female to ascend to the throne in living memory and under shaky circumstances to boot. It is certainly suspicious that the youngest daughter would manage to survive a series of unfortunate accidents and tragedies that claimed her elder brothers and eventually her father. Many suspect that she murdered her family, but none dare speak the aforementioned out loud in fear of drawing the Emira's legendary wrath down upon themselves.

Though diminutive in size, this petite young ruler's penchant for wanton bloodlust is only matched by her appetite for carnal pleasures and foreign accoutrements. It said that she envisions completely industrializing her country, but it is a pipe-dream at best.
Considering me interested darlings.
This still on?

Two 32,500 ton Passenger Liners had a combined cost of approximately $21,000,000 in 1931

After scrounging the web I found a dead thread on the subject that linked to which lists the hull and machinery contract costs for Second World War US Destroyers.
Their tables show that ships like the USS Farragut (launched in 1934) had a price of approximately $3,034,500. Hope this helps.
@Gaebrael
Thanks, I completely understand. I was just trying to spice things up a little, alleviate some personal boredom, and possibly ensure that my nation is not completely occupied by the Byzantines or the Ottomans on the first post. Ha!
