[quote=@Cyclone] Well they probably would be more lax on emigration since it is their desire (and within their interests) to seed other nations with people of their culture and religion, in the hope that it spreads. That and they have enough people to spare. But I quoted you because I found it interesting that there was a sizable population of Tinites as all. Presuming that they did not abandon the Ajdar Faith, they would still have some degree of loyalty to Tin because its leader is also the head of their religion. Kind of like how many people in Catholic realms used to respect the Pope more than their own king, and sometimes people even paid taxes to the Papal State instead of the local lords. Anyways, I'd imagine that relations between our nation would have been sour as of late due to yours suddenly abolishing its monarchy to create a Communist Republic. Just look at the uproar that ensued amongst nearby nations after the French Revolution abolished the nation's monarchy. And if your nation saw Tin's monarchy as a threat (which it conceivably would) and tried to start a Communist Revolution over there, it'd make sense for Tin to seek to similarly overthrow you by sending missionaries to spread their own Conservative ideology and encourage the local Tinites and other Ajdars to rebel. Sending all these missionaries and encouraging people to move to your country would also explain why there are even Tinites over there to begin with. So basically what I'm proposing was a Cold War-esque rivalry and war of espionage between us. [/quote] Yeah, that makes sense, and it seems likely that having a small population of Tinites would provoke such a war, considering our revolution. I'm definitely up for it, and if you add something to that effect to your nation history I'll add something that corresponds to mine. Also, out of boredom I drew up a really rough map of the global claims, but it's clear enough to get a general idea of how things are.

I have no idea why Yamatai only has 7.5 million people, that seems incredibly low in comparison to everyone else. Eisenkreis is kind of low but then again they are mostly inland it seems, so lower population density.
