Hm... Relations between the Goblins and the Azera would be interesting to say the least. I would not be surprised if the Azera waged war on the Goblins as well in the olden times, given their once warlike nature, so there could possibly be some bad blood between them (but there's bad blood with just about everyone and the Goblins). Then again, the present date offers two cultures with some distinct similarities, yes: a focus on the group rather than the individual; isolationism; having bad relations with most nations in the world. Their religious differences wouldn't be a sour point, really, since Goblins would just adapt whatever they liked from the Azera to fit their own culture... Though the Azera might not like it if the Goblins started trying to bargain with the Trickster God as they do with all deities...
It could work. Trade would be possible; the Goblins would probably take a large variety of things in trade, especially good tools. Big Brigga, being a warlord, would probably make use of the Goblin-Azera alliance to conquer whatever land she could for her people before she died, and probably employ their help in establishing permanent defenses in non-swampy territories that the goblins could use.
Do you want to say they've already made a mutual defense pact and have begun trading (which will, of course, still be a dangerous endeavor what with goblin clans having the rivalry they do and the likelihood of rival clans raiding trade caravans heading to their enemies' villages)?

I'll have to see your nation's completed form before I say "Yes," but that would work for the goblins, so long as they felt they wouldn't be betrayed. They are guerrilla warfare specialists, basically, and they actually are hoping to expand coast-to-coast so as to be able to muscle their way into the global scene of diplomacy by controlling inland trade. It could work.
I'd just like to make it very clear, then, that the Goblin Territories should be considered "open season" by all civilized nations, as was my original intent. Invade them and murder them at your leisure, for the sake of plot! That is the summary of my race relations, unless anyone is playing a nation desperate enough to parley with Goblins.

So long as he understands the Orc creed, 'Orks Stronk! Gibe Clay!', we'll get along famously. :p
You forgot "DAKKA!"
I'm still around. I'm in a total of three roleplays including this one, so I may post slowly.
Fair enough and good to know. I was toying with more accurate firearms (eventually), blunderbusses, and the early forms of grenades, myself, assuming I get all the materials needed to make superior firearms (lumber, gunpowder, iron).
Also, I've finished (it didn't take long) updating the new map for Erimir with the addition of the southern subcontinent. Here it is (without the armies placed):

Wish Grevious Khan would come around... I would like to have relations with someone other then you soft-skins. Har Har!
You know, I originally was going to put my halfling nation where Hightower is, which would have made them neighbors with your orcs. But I refrained because Grievous had a mighty warrior nation as well, and I felt like my halflings were going to get steamrolled by everything big and strong in the world and be subsequently enslaved.

Is this a popular feeling amongst you guys? I can include a calandar, but I feel this would lead to a turn based RP where as I feel everything is working just fine as it is. It's upto you lot, I am the peoples' servant.
The only thing I'd like to know is what season we're in. Otherwise, I'm cool with things as they are. I've been assuming it's Spring.
Sounds good, matey. And peek at the Goblin Territories if you would; that's the NPC app. I made.
