[quote=@Cyclone] Just FYI, you're surrounded mostly by colonies over there. That place is essentially the Africa of this world. Granted, your nation could still be industrialized and powerful by this time a la the United States, but you'd be pretty detached from a lot of history and interaction from the nations on the other side of the world. [/quote] That's exactly what I want, Cyclone :lol You'll see. I want to have only a little history with other nations.
