No problem! Could I then advance to Tehran,under the pretext of protecting the citizens of the shia majority from the caliphate, which in its history has commited atrocities against shiites in their domains?
You are aware that the war ended 15 years ago and the middle-east has been at peace for 15 years? Good job, you just invaded a neutral country :D
Thousands of Muslims have gathered in the Suleymaniye mosque to participate in the traditional Friday prayers of Islam. This Friday Caliph Mohammed Salah Ibn Al-Arabi would lead the prayers. Mohammed Salah had been chosen by the Shura as Caliph of the Istanbul Caliphate 10 years ago after the dead of the previous Caliph. Mohammed Salah stroke his long black beard once and started to speak.
“ Brothers, today the fragile peace of this world has been broken. 15 years ago the third world war came to an end. Reshaping the world, redrawing borders. The nations that are here today have been born through blood and fire. We all remember the horrors, we all honor the fallen martyrs and we all wish to see our sons and daughters grow up in peace. We have worked hard to reestablish peaceful relationships with our neighbors and bring stability to the Arabic world. Under our leadership the Middle-east has known a period of unprecedented peace and prosperity. For 15 years our women could go to the markets without having to fear to be blown up. For 15 years the people of Palestine could walk the streets of Gaza city without the fear of being bombed. This fear is now back.
The Mexican Empire and their United South Asian Empire friends have declared war on the Caliphate unprovoked. Destroying the fragile after world war 3 peace and returning the flames of war once again to the world Allah has given us, staining its soil with the blood of the innocent. USAE troops have violated the sovereignty of Iran and are marching towards our borders. Once again my brothers The Caliphate must ask his sons to take up the sword in order to defend our children from brutal imperialism from beyond the seas. Once again our sons will become martyrs to perserve our way of live and to defend the children of Islam. Long live the Caliphate!”
The crowd cheered “ Allahu Akbar!”
Meanwhile full scale mobilization of the Caliphate's armed forces went underway. Units of the great Caliphs army take on defensive positions all across the border with the Caliphate and Iran in order to deal with the invaders. The Caliphate's navy started to extensively patrol the Gulf of Aden and the Straight of Gibraltar. Effectively closing entry to the Mediterranean Sea for Mexican and USAE ships.
A proposition to all the nations of the world
Greetings my brothers,
Our world has been shaped by fire and blood. Our fields have been stained with the violence of world war. Our mothers still weep over their lost sons on the battlefield of 15 years ago. Only time can heal can heal the scars of war. The Caliphate does not wish to rip open these wounds that have just barely been closed. We do not seek conflict nor expansion of our borders. We seek to preserve our way of life and to give the Muslims of this world a home where they can practice their religion without interference and oppression.
The Istanbul Caliphate does not believe that the world should be cast once again into the horrors of war. The Caliphate greatly condemns the USAE violation of the Iranian sovereignty. A neutral country that we have been at peace with for 15 years. In order to resolve this crisis the great Caliph proposes to hold a peace conference in a neutral country between all the major powers. Only through working together we can maintain this fragile peace and prevent that this world will be once again engulfed in the flames of war.

The higher ranking officers and special forces units consists of career soldiers. Next to the official military forces the Caliphate has a paramilitary wing of radical islamists recruited from all over the world known as the Martyr Brigade.
Martyr Brigades The martyr brigades is a multinational fundamentalist paramilitary organization with the aim of adding other territories to the Caliphate. It consists of radical Islamic insurgents who are trained in the Caliphate to conduct a-symmetric warfare and terrorism against the infidels.

History of the Nation (Easy Pz):
The Middle-east has always been a part of the world that has been infamous for its lack of stability. Ever since most of the Middle-east gained Independence during or closely after world war 2 it has been greatly divided across religious and racial lines. The birth of the state of Israel marked the beginning of a long conflict between Arabic Muslims and Zionist Jews. It was the unconditional support of the western world to the state of Israel that kick-started the rise of the radical Islam throughout the middle-east. The unwillingness of the west to truly condemn and act against Israeli atrocities in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict became the course of the believe that the West did not care about the Muslims. During the mid 90's the first true act of deviance against the western mistreatment of the Islamic world with the terrorist attacks on the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. In response the US bombed a pharmaceutical factory in Sudan.
The terrorist attacks and American response only furthered the mistrust between the Muslim world and the west. Only 3 years later radical Islamic terrorist would strike at the heart of American society at 11th of September 2001. It was this event that marked the true change in US-Islamic relationship as the Bush administration declared its war on terror not long after. The US invaded Afghanistan in late 2001 and Iraq in 2003. It where these invasions and the failure to establish working regimes that where the greatest contributors to the rising instability in the Middle-east.
The US interventions in the Arabic world in combination with their undying support for Israel regardless of what atrocities that country committed did not go unnoticed in Turkey. Slowly conservative and radical Islamic views became more popular. The popularity of the AK party is a prime example of this. After the US invasion of Afghanistan in 2001, the Secret Sunni Brotherhood was formed in Istanbul by Mullah Achmed Salah Ibn Al-Arabi. This organization preached the liberation of the Islamic world from western dominance and infiltrated the AK party of Erdoghan. It was under influence of the Sunni Brotherhood that the Turkish government refused US access for the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
The western invasions in the Middle-east and the Israeli atrocities against the Palestinian people greatly deteriorated the Turkish relationships with their traditional NATO and Israeli allies. The Sunni Brotherhood adopted a policy to establish a large Islamic state where the true Muslims could live without having to worry about American or Israeli bombs destroying their homes.
The Sunni Brotherhood looked for opportunities to expand their influence into other Islamic countries and opened up branches in Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Syria and unleashed what was called the Arabic Spring. Under the disguise of wanting more freedom the populations rose against their dictators and toppled the governments in Tunis, Cairo and Tripoli while Syria slipped down into a massive civil war. Meanwhile in Turkey the AK party failed to get the absolute majority but still remained in power.
With Syria sliding down into chaos it saw the emergence of another Sunni group known as ISIS. This militant group quickly gained control of large parts of Syria and crossed into Iraq. Once again the response of the west was to intervene with military means in the middle-east. Throughout 2014 to 2017 heavy the international coalition waged war against ISIS. The Sunni Brotherhood tried to create their own group within the conflict but never could play a major factor in the conflict. This all changed when Syrian and Iraqi Kurds declared an independent Kurdistan in the Syrian and Iraqi Kurdish controlled area's in the autumn of 2017. This sense of liberation motivated the Kurdish PKK within Turkey to declare their independence and integration with this new Kurdistan.
This prompted the Turkish AK government to respond and invaded the new country of Kurdistan. Only after a week of fighting Turkey signed a cf under pressure from NATO and especially the US. Greatly dis-contended about the outcome of the conflict and Erdoghan giving in to American pressure made the Turks hit the streets in protest. The AK government fell and new elections where held in 2018. This election was won by the Sunni Brotherhood party and once their government was installed they left NATO and invaded Kurdistan in the summer of 2018. After two months of fighting the Kurds where driven out of all their territories in both Turkey, Syria and Iraq. The Kurds went on to fight Turkey from war torn Syria prompting the Turks to intervene in the Syrian conflict. By the end of 2018 Turkey controlled all of Syria and Iraqi Kurdistan.
Even though the EU and US objected to this occupation Turkey held their ground and simply stated that they had the right to intervene in order to protect the Muslims of the world. Iraq was quick to ask Turkey to give back the Iraqi part of Kurdistan which they refused. Meanwhile on the home front the Sunni Brotherhood government made quick work of turning Turkey into an Islamic state making the Sunni Islam the state religion and turning other religious groups into second class citizens. This policy founded also great support in Syria. A referendum was held and Syria officially integrated into what now was called the Turkish Islamic republic.
With Syria under control of Turkey Iraq and its international allies managed to reestablish government control throughout Iraq. However great tensions between the ever more radical Sunni Turkey and the Shiite Iraqi government remained throughout the next years. During this time, the Turkish Islamic republic managed to greatly modernize their army and became the primary Middle-eastern power and self-proclaimed Guardian of the Sunni Islam.
The fragile peace was once again broken when the Lebanon crisis broke out in 2028. Lebanese Christians murdered 63 Muslims in a mosque during the Friday prayers. When the Lebanese government failed to act upon this atrocity Turkish Islamic Republics forces crossed the border in what they called a peacekeeping mission. In truth Turkish forces armed Muslim extremist who went from house to house killing Christians and Shiite Muslims. Over the course of 6 months almost 1 million people where murdered and another million men fled to Israel. Is act was called the Lebanon genocide.
With the Turkish Islamic faction becoming more and more aggressive an unlikely alliance was formed between Israel, Jordan, Iraq, Iran, Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia. These countries all feared the ever rising power of the Turkish Sunni empire end worked relentlessly to expand their military capabilities. In the face of this new alliance the Turks signed a secret pact with Egypt.
As the world got engulfed in world war 3 the Sunni Brotherhood realized that Israel would not be backed in full if they assaulted know. In April 2030 Turkish and Egyptian forces launched an attack on Israel. This prompted was would become known as the Middle-eastern war. Turkey had hoped to quickly conquer Israel together with Egypt but soon found out the hard way why the Jews state had nearly survived 100 years of conflict. Egyptian forces did not manage to penetrate at all and Turkish forces advanced very slowly in the Golan heights. Jordan, Iraq, Iran, Azerbaijan, Georgia and Armenia declared war on Turkey 5 days later.
Turkey quickly managed to knock out the Jordanian and Iraqi air-forces and launched an Invasion of Jordan. By june 2031 Jordan was entirely occupied by Turkish Forces effectively cutting off Israel from its Arab Allies. Israel fell 5 months later. With the destruction of the Zionist state, the Turkish Islamic Republic found a sudden burst in popularity among Sunni Muslims world wide. Many Sunni Iraqi soldiers deserted and marched on to Baghdad but where routed with the support of Iranian units. With the Mediterranean side under control Turkey now started to focus on the Iraqi campaign.
Due to the difficult terrain in both the Caucasus and Iran Turkey managed to hold off enemy offenses from those sides. As Turkey amassed their forces propagandist talked about the battle that was always meant to be fought. The battle between the Sunni and Shiite Muslims. The Turks amassed over 1.5 million forces to fight the 2 million man strong combined armies of Iran and Iraq. After five months of preparation the Turks launched their offensive only to find it halted after two months of fighting. As the Iraqi front became a stalemate insurgents from the Martyr brigades managed to start a revolt in Azerbaijan, forcing them to withdraw forces from the front-line. This opened up an opportunity to strike against Armenia and bypass the strong defensive line of the Turkish-Georgian border. In early 2033 Turkey launched their Caucasian offensive against Armenia and broke through the lines after 5 days of fighting. The majority of their army swept north and crossed into Georgia. After 3 months of fighting both Georgia and Armenia where under control. Azerbaijan had effectively gone into a civil war between Muslims and Christians. With Turkish support the Muslims eventually by the end of 2034.
The first halve of 2035 was spend preparing for the final offensive on Baghdad which eventually fell at the end of summer. With Iraq collapsing Iran stood alone and asked for peace. With the Turkish military close to being depleted after nearly 5 years of total war Turkey and Iran signed the peace treaty of Baghdad. Iran was left unoccupied but had to pay high compensations for the war. At the end of the war. The Sunni Brotherhood proclaimed the Istanbul Caliphate in 2035. Egypt quickly integrated in 2036 into the Caliphate and a radical Sunni government was formed.
In the wake of the end of the Arabic war mass violence erupted against all non-Sunni minorities within the Caliphate as millions where slaughtered or enslaved. Christians, Shiites and Kurds all fled or where expelled. It was estimated that over 50 million people where forced out of the Caliphate and around 15 million murdered, mostly in Israel. Up until now the Caliphate has used most of its time to rebuild after the Arabic war. Consolidating their conquests and rebuilding much of the countries industries. Internal stability was ensured by having a very radical interpretation of the Sharia and proclaiming all non-Sunni's as enemies of Allah.
Main Race (What is your State Race + Racial Demographics): Turks: 48 % Arabs: 42% Other: 10%
Main Religion (What is your State Religion + Religious Demographics): Radical Sunni Islam. The Caliphate endorses a very radical version of the Sunni Islam. It forces everyone within the state to convert to this form of Islam. Religious minorities have been subjugated to extreme violence and genocide. Any other form of religion is prohibited by the state. People who refuse to convert can be punished by death of sold into slavery. Most people who identify with other religions than the Sunni Islam are slaves owned by religious fighters and leaders.

I have comparatively little interest in Europe. If I do expand in Europe through the course of the roleplay, it would only be to take back Moldova/the Baltic countries.
The Caliphate and the post-American countries probably have the most to fear.
Which countries would still have nuclear arsenals?
With over 51 million muslims in your country, it might be wise to avoid the torn of Allah. That are 51 million potential terrorists waging Jihad on the oppressive infidels of the Sovjet Empire :D
Max was a bit surprised by the sudden appearance of this young lady. Judging on her accent and attitude she was decently from south-American decent. Such temperament. Even before he could respond to her appearance meltdown started to rage around about cellphones and started to glow brightly. Almost instantly Max could feel the heat rising. He counted himself lucky that he was wearing sunglasses and his body was covered in clothing. If not, he would have gotten an unwanted color change to red.
As Meltdown started to run towards the forest the sound of machine-gun fire filled the air. It came much to Phenomenon's surprise. The first shots missed him and as he turned around he raised his hand. Like a policeman that orders a car to stop. As the next salvo was launched towards him the bullets simply stopped about two feet away from max. Hanging completely silent in mid-air. He turned towards the men at the edge of the forest and shouted. “Guys, shooting at me is not going to work. Better surrender now before that lady kicks you into the hospital”
With the motion of his finger Max made the bullets turn towards the man in the back next to the Faraday cage. Suddenly one of the bullets accelerated towards one of the men in the hazmat suits who stood next to the cage. It passed the person in the hazmat suit head only by a few inch before it dug itself into one of the trees. “ It seems like I missed” Shouted phenomenon into their direction. “I am pretty sure the next one will hit your head. And even if I miss again. All your shooting gave me plenty of ammunition. Not to mention I am in the mood for a little target practise. But I'll cut you a deal. Why don't you guys start explaining what the hell this mess is and you just might live to see another day!”
