[quote=@The Captain] Is there any particular world history you might want to mention before I get rolling on the history of my state? I've got a vague idea of what I want to do, but if I can mesh with some sort of overarching story that'd be even better. EDIT: And, on that note, if anyone wants to collaborate in some regard or have a pre-existing relationship then all the better. [/quote] I'd love to have an ally. My plan is to have a totalitarian atheist regime, so having an ally to start with is nice.
