[quote=@NecroKnight] [@Shyri] What is the state of the Kaiser of Afrika and his lands? [/quote] His lands would be Tanganyika, Malawi, and the north half of Mozambique lying northwest of the Zambezi river (most of it that is, the border following the Zambezi river up to the southern most tip of Malawi, then following the border of Malawi). He probably doesn't rule Zanzibar (historically when Tanganyika mixed with Zanzibar it took the name of Tanzania. Since we're still calling it Tanganyika, I'm guessing Zanzibar is independent or an unannexed protectorate.) They are bordered on the North by the Swahili People's Republic (rped by myself), in the south by Rhodesia (RPed by Wyrm), and in the west by whatever is happening in Zambia, the Congo, Rwanda, and Burundi. Who the Kaiser is hasn't been established... until right now. Paul Von Lettow-Vorbeck historically lived until 1964, so he could very much be alive, but in 1960 he'd be 90 years old. This means that if he is alive, he's probably either stepped down or put all real power in the hands of his successor. His successor is most likely a son. His grandson is a character living in Ethiopia, who I'll probably retcon as the Ambassador from Tanganyika. With Wyrm and myself bordering Tangaynika, and now elements of your own situation based on what is going on there, Imma go ahead and assume Tanganyika is now a full fledged NPC nation and those of us with connections to it can make up details. So lets say RĂ¼diger von Lettow Vorbeck is currently the Kaiser and that Paul retired. This'll mean the von Lettow-Vorbeck family tree is something like...
