@KingTip@Dinh AaronMkWhich was my idea, just a very simple map ehere fill in the colour of our country in the allocated states. But after seeing your work, we simply must have a deer or an elk on the map. Look at them antlers!


That was my original idea but the Sister Republic has some confusing southern borders... Which is fine I like that you don't have to confine to taking whole states, just hard to map quickly (especially when DC is their capital but has only 'north' Maryland)
@KingTipIs the map of the US in the making? If not, mind if I do it?


Yeah I had started, but it is not of the quality that I was looking for and I was going to trash it and start with a new process. If you have some cool cartography skills and want to make the map please do, it will probably turn out better than mine.
Another thing I was going to start was a 'archives' of sorts in the first OOC post. It would house all of the treaties and ceasefires and such starting with the Treaty of Washington DC. If you are interested in having a document in the archive, PM your document. Also I wopuld like to hear your guys' thoughts on the archive thing, just something I thought would be a nice addition.
Since @thorgili is a bit inactive right now let's just say that Germany is currently in a revolution between the Imperials and Hitler, so other can work on their apps while waiting for him to return . If he comes back and wants to take control of Germany he may, and add more detail to the whole situation.
I'll just claim my states.

Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and New York.

In the name of The American North East Commonwealth.


Some of these states have already been claimed, read Preusen's app
Starting from page one:

@ONL I really like your history, to be honest I was expecting a communist west coast but you really tied it together. You're good to post in characters.
As for your question, this alt timeline starts to diverge early in the Great Depression, when it becomes much worse than in our timeline. I wouldn't say there is a exact point of divergence, though. However diverging does influence and cause the different results of the election.


@Ayazi Beautiful history, and interesting and fun country choice (especially since I saw that a China joined too). Post in the characters tab!


@Dinh AaronMK Really, really good history! Seriously enjoyed the read. I'm going to enjoy the interstate diplomacy that starts hapening between everyone. To the characters tab!


@Preusen Awesome. Reading yours was a rollercoaster ride. I loved it and all the extra details you added making it super immersive. I do agree that maybe FDR wouldn't be a great choice for your leader, but you can change it or convince me still.


@Doctoryzer Really cool app, and impressive being your first alt history. I do think you meant 515 million, not 515 thousand for population, right? Fix that and you're good to post in characters.


@Keyguyperson Man, when you said 'bare-bones', had no flag, and had not edited, I was skeptical. The I read your history. Holy crap man, really good! I swear this situation with all of these nations would make a really great book. Once you get a flag, post in characters.


@Claw2K11 I like your idea, but a few things: In this alternate history the Great Depression was really bad for everyone. If you can start to get some self-sustainability that's good and would lessen the effects, like the Mexican Miracle (Thanks Dinh), but I think that it would be greatly less significant. I think a bit more struggle is needed during the mid parts of your history. Also, a smaller thing, the rp starts a few days after the Treaty of Washington DC, which is later in the year. So if you wanted to mobilize and declare war on a fractured US, you would want to do it actually when it fractures (after August 13th). Fix these and possibly add a bit more detail and I think you'll have a pretty good nation set up.


@Blekee Even though you say your background isn't fully developed, I think it still has extreme quality. You are free to post in characters and can still add more to that backstory because I would love to read more.
As for your question, I purposely left out most information about the rest of the world, wanting to see (and was pleasantly surprised by) how people could interpret and change outside countries without many restrictions. Judging by mentions in some apps, and no one has chosen them yet, I think the USSR will be an NPC, without extreme changes made.


@thorgili I like your app, but I do agree it conflicts a little bit, and I think it would be a more fun and working app if you went with your prussia idea you mentioned. Do some changing, I like the way this could be going. The idea of ou still being mid-revolution could also be very interesting and maybe add a bit more balance.


@The Spectre Nice! Your app looks good, but I am sorry about Germany. While you won't have to fix anything, You will have to edit to what thorgili changes to. Just wait a bit until thorgili updates. I am very sorry about making you change.
However, you do seem like a good co-GM so I would love to have you aboard! (tbh if I actually was gone I would have wanted someone like you to start a new similar rp)


@Chairman Stein I really like your immense depth and lore! I love how this is all turning out. You are, of course, free to post yours in characters. However, a side note, we don't start on January 1st, more like November 1st (Due to others having wars and stuff after the Treaty) and that might not even be far enough ahead, we'll have to see. But if that changes anything with your end piece, just wanted you to know.



Wow, that was a lot. Can't wait to see what happens! We should be able to start RP soon, and still let people join. If we've talked about their country they would have to conform to what has already been RP'ed.

HOLY **** I JUST GOT SCARED. I clicked a 'next page' on this same tab I'm writing on, luckily chrome has magic and when I pressed back it was still here. I might have rage quit until tomorrow if i lost it
Wait do not lose hope yet! I have been without internet for multiple days now. I got more than a little scared when the last I saw this thread had 4 posts and now it is over 50. Thanks for all the interest guys, I've skimmed through everything, but I'm going to be getting to reading everything and answering questions right now. I guess it would also help if I got a co-gm, anyone interested?
Yeah, sorry these two weeks are a bit rough for me, but you guys are completely fine to join, the people from the interest check haven't even posted here yet and for this RP the more players the better. Can't wait to see your final sheets.
Is this still something I can join?
The year is 1937. The Great Depression has ravaged the world for eight long years. In the United States, it has become too much. When Hoover beat FDR at the election, people were hopeful. Now all of Hoover's policies have failed miserably. States have started banding together and are having thoughts about secession. August 13, 1937 is the day when the Treaty of Washington DC is signed. The former US government did not want her states to leave with bloodshed, so she set them free, hoping with their own governments they would do better than as a whole. There is no more 'United States' but some states have become united once again, in their own factions. Whether these factions will remain peaceful is a question for another time. The abolishment of the USA has struck the world hard, and in many ways worsened the Great Depression across the board. War is brewing. Is anyone strong enough to survive it?

Welcome to Point of No Return. In this RP players will assume control over a former US faction released by the Treaty of Washington DC, or a different nation, existing or new, across the world. The Great Depression is not over, and war might be the only thing that could save some nations, jumpstarting their economy. So tell the stories of what has been done and what will be done to fight the Great Depression in your nation.








@Keyguyperson @Voltus_Ventus @LordZell from interest check
Looks really cool! I'll have a nation sheet up soon.
