But I'm not sure when I'd want to start it in game wise...

Starting right After WWII or the Cuban Missile Crisis would be pretty interesting to say the least.

Reino de España (Kingdom of Spain)

Plus Ultra


If one studies the annals of history they would find that the United States and the Kingdom of Spain have had their fair share of differences in the past, yet if one is looking with a unbiased eye they would see that we have also nurtured a sense of mutual understanding since the founding of the American Republic. In these troubled time many nations have created a number of false pretenses in order to align themselves with an assortment of villainous rebels against the United States; this frankly quite petty. While, the United States has indeed commented transgressions of varying degrees against the Spanish people in the past, this alone does not justify fostering a state of insurrection; in fact it would go against the core teachings of the scripture if one's past sins could not be forgiven. Let it be known across the globe that Spain stands by the President Lincoln in his fight against those that would defy the word of God and terrorize a sovereign state; all those that prescribe to the true faith should abide by the words transcribed in 1 Samuel 15:23,"rebellion is like the sin of divination, and arrogance like the evil of idolatry." I therefore decree that Spain will not recognize this so-called "Confederate States of America" as a sovereign entity and move that any vessel found flying a "Confederate" flag is hereby banned from our ports.

I thought that at first too jwon, but the map seems to suggest otherwise; mind you I am not trying to nitpick, I just recently spent a sizable portion of time researching Spain's role in the 1860's and this was apparently an integral happening in regards to Spanish-Western relations.
@Outcast: In canon-history on March 18, 1861 General Pedro Santana takes control of the Dominican Republic and reestablishes it as a Spanish Colony; in the context of this roleplay how would the aforementioned play out? Would Spain have to issue some sort of order accepting the Dominican Republic back as a colony or would this specific recolonization be some sort of predetermined event unaffected by the revised canon?
If this is still open I would like to play as Spain.

That's perfect then. Our last America bailed on us, and well...it's not a Cold War without the evil capitalist entity.


Indeed, I am going to catch up with the IC and then formulate a post.

We desperately need America.


I do not mind playing as America.
If you guys need a new player I Have No Life I'm game.
I am rather aware that Iraq is rather important in this scenario and I have no problem portraying it objectively, but if the need arises I can take on a heavier burden.
If we need more core nations in order to move the plot along; I would be willing to switch for the good of the role-play.
