Ten million?
I mean, it makes sense, but I lowered my military to 2 million, I thought there was a limit?
Yeah I did notice that, I would prefer if he lowered it, but he wouldn't be forced 2.
@Monkeypants
I would say lower it to 3 million

Military Population: Nearly tenmillion spread through all member nations.The Army
The Chinese army had long been purely reliant on its powerful numbers versus technology but in the early 2000's, they had begun to change this. By 2020, the chinese army had begun modernizing with the highest tech weaponry they could procure.
When the great war began these new weapons were in short supply. As potent as they may have been, it was all lost to the conventional and nuclear exchange. After the war ended, the Chinese had access to high end russian tanks of that time and a huge surplus of soviet era retrofitted tanks. This was not enough if they were to survive in this new world so they began updating once more and over the years, especially with the addition of japan and south Korea, have created a modern fighting force that would be folly to disregard
Even as 'New Asia' has access to abundant rare and common materials, they still stick to simple yet effective designs. Ultra high tech energy rifles are not a thing, super jump jet shock troopers aren't even on a to do list aside from the cartoonists. Rather, they use a variety of strong kinetic assault rifles and high tech man-portable SAM and AT weaponry. Their armored forces utilize a Main battle tank armed with a high powered rail-gun. New Asia's biggest feat however are their heavy foray into robotics which has yielded simple rifle toting drones and heavier walking assault platforms.Air force
The Chinese air force was hit the hardest during the war. Losses piled up as nations fought for aerial supremacy in the area. Chinese jets fought the F-16's and 15's in Japan and assorted British and American aircraft in Korea and Australia. From the ashes rose another potent force, one that has radically changed its doctrine to accommodate the newest nations weapons of war. Fighters armed with lasers to take down missiles and other air threats. Rail guns for any reason and many other types of weaponry now are commonplace among the newer aircraft. They are still lagging behind in numbers and utilize a variety of captured American and older Late-Soviet era warplanes.
Navy
China has always been in the shadow of the United states when it comes to the navy. Constantly outgunned and out numbered by the strongest military in the world at the time. China had begun to counter this in the the early 2000's with various programs to update their laughable in comparison navy. They became a true Blue water navy in the late 2010's with the launch of two super carriers, able to compete with the American juggernauts of that time.
The war proved that no navy is perfect and even though the American Navy and Chinese Navy were nearly evenly matched in terms of naval numbers and technology by the onset of the war, The Americans had a clear advantage of experience which resulted in a series of decisive Naval defeats for China. It was fortunate that the United States fractured which allowed the New Asia to once again push for Dominance. Now with the experience learned from the war and five Nuclear-Super carriers roaming the western half of the Pacific and another two in the China sea, they have relative comfort from any naval threats from abroad.

History of the Nation
True Asia truly began during the reformist movement of the late 2010's. With China crashing markets all over the world by closing its markets and dumping debts. With no real influx of cheap merchandise, numerous corporations world wide folded.
This actually hurt China more than they thought as there was now thousands of factories and millions without work. The Chinese began building what ever they could to keep their now struggling economy alive but it was going downhill fast.
The future was blew but salvation came; The Great War.
As the war set off, nuclear exchange was inevitable so the Chinese spread its population to try and mitigate the damage to its population. Warplanes launched ASAT missiles to remove spy satellites they could reach.
The black out helped save many live but also allowed the Chinese to move in some secrecy so they positioned their armies for war.
As the war in Europe reached its high point and Britain seemingly sitting it out, China made its move. Mongolia was overran without a shot which emboldened the Chinese.
South Korea was next on the list and they anticipated another easy victory but it was not to be. Americans fired nuclear weapons into north Korea and along the border, creating a nuclear barrier. China deployed its navy to draw American fleets away by bombing Hawaii and harassing shipping.
American naval forces took the bait which allowed China to begin its air war against what was stationed on mainland south Korea. It was not as easy as they had hoped as they seriously underestimated NATO and south Korea pilots. While the air battle was raging, China snuck marine forces to the south and then began nuking the DMZ.
American forces began to retreat under the stress from the attacks but still fought every inch of the way. The Chinese army generals began moving troops through safe areas of the DMZ and began their core invasion. The troops marched en masse, pushing Nato forces back to the Capitol of South Korea.
Word of the civil war in America spread like wild fire which gave China new incentive to advance and they made tremendous gains. As the battle for Korea was winding down, the Chinese generals offered remaining US forces safe passage to Hawaii out of respect.
China began assimilating south Korea and began spreading south rapidly, overtaking many of the largely undefended Oceania islands. The battle for Oceania wasn't as costly as Korea but was not easy either. Engaging Australian forces every step of the way.
With American forces largely withdrawn from the china sea, there was no one to help mainland Australia. Chinese bombers struck major cities killing thousands with conventional bombs. Australia was nearly destroyed but the war with India saved them.
The battle for India began when India invaded Pakistan, one of Chinas long time allies. The war was brief but ended with a large nuclear exclusion zone along the borders of the two great nations. Pakistan stood without its massive ally and succumbed to Indian rule.
China now had abandoned its plans for Oceania and just kept its gains but turned its eyes north, to Japan.
It was potentially a blood bath but as American forces abandoned Japan, Chinese invasion of Okinawa began. It was a decisive victory for China as they had taken Japan by surprise.
Japan didn't make that mistake twice and successfully repelled the first invasion but failed to stop the second from landfall. China became bogged down trying to fight the Japanese so they decided a show of force was necessary, as the Americans had done in World war 2.
China set off a barrage of nuclear weapons north of Tokyo, just close enough to be obvious. Japan capitulated shortly after.
After all of these gains, plans for invading further north and west were laid out but as the world war was coming to a close, china dropped those plans and began to solidify its gains.
A grand unity took place and with that pride rose a new Coalition.
True Asia was born.

History of the Nation:
After the Greek default in 2015 followed by 'Grexit' from the EU, Greece suffered terrible economic hardship and almost collapsed. In desperation, Greeks turned to extremist parties such as Golden Dawn and Syriza for answers. On the 5th June 2019, the Second Greek Civil War broke out between the socialist and neo-communist left-wing Syriza supporters and the right-wing, fascist Golden Dawn supporters. This almost destroyed the nation, cleaving a second divide between Athens (Golden Dawn) and Thessaloniki (Syriza). However, the socialists were outnumberd and outgunned, and as Athens had gained control of the Hellenic navy, Syriza were blockaded and ultimately surrendered.
The stabilisation of Greece had only just been achieved in the following years by the new dictatorial government when the Third World War broke out. Greece attempted to remain neutral, and, as it had withdrawn from both the EU and NATO, succeeded for the most part. However, rapid rearmament for 'defensive purposes' perturbed the belligerent powers around it. Despite this, however, Greece never formally joined the war, but manipulated the various surrounding powers to bring Macedonia and Cyprus under its sway (the latter being made possible by the chaos dividing the Islamic world, including Turkey). This was done on the insistence of their Hellenism and the sheer incapability of the belligerent forces to intervene.
After the war, Greece experienced a limited economic upturn as the only truly stable nation in the region. It was during this period than Greek troops entered Albania and Bulgaria as 'peacekeepers' and to 'protect ethnic Hellenes'. These areas were ultimately annexed, the rump Bulgaria a mere shadow of its former self.
It is thought that Greece would have experienced severe civil unrest and resistance to the annexation if it hadn't been for the unifying factor of opposition to the Caliphate, deemed a grave threat to European civilisation. Golden Dawn, renaming itself the Orthodox Megali Party, made clear its intent to pursue the 'Megali Idea', a pan-Greek ideology seeking to unite all ethnically Greek regions. This included the recapture of Constantinople (Istanbul) and the western Anatolian coast. To legitimise this ideology, the Party reinstated the monarchy, crowned as 'King of the Hellenes' and 'Emperor of Constantinople in Exile', amongst other titles.
Now Greece seeks to expand its new influence into the Balkans and the Mediterranean, and compete with the Caliphate in a defensive manner, currently lacking the military capabilities to directly oppose them.

I have comparatively little interest in Europe. If I do expand in Europe through the course of the roleplay, it would only be to take back Moldova/the Baltic countries.
The Caliphate and the post-American countries probably have the most to fear.
Which countries would still have nuclear arsenals?
<Snipped quote by Mihndar>
With over 51 million muslims in your country, it might be wise to avoid the torn of Allah. That are 51 million potential terrorists waging Jihad on the oppressive infidels of the Sovjet Empire :D
As you can guess this is still very much work in progress.
For some reason I always have the most problem with writing up history for my NS.

History of the Nation: The Soviet Empire of Eurasia was established in 2018 due to the elapsing term of President Vladimir Putin of the Russian Federation. To cement his power, he crowned himself Emperor of a new, both Soviet and Imperial, state. Putin's United Russia party merged with the Communist Party and formed one cohesive program for running the nation. Over the next twenty years he secured his power, crushing protests and revolts, and succeeded in accomplishing the membership of Ukraine and Kazakhstan in the Empire. During World War III, Ukraine was successfully annexed into the Empire fully, and it has designs on the states of Central Asia and the Baltic which were once part of the Soviet Union.
However, in 2032, leading his army in Central Asia, Vladimir Putin was assassinated by Islamic extremists, and the war was called to a halt as his son, Vyacheslav Putin, was crowned the new Emperor. Since the end of the war, Vyacheslav has been consolidating his power and improving the economy and industry of Russia to prepare for war once again. The Soviet Empire has close ties with the Second Ethiopian Empire, due to their funding of the government and due to their mutual struggle against Islamic extremists in Central Asia and North Africa, and hopes to continue such a partnership.
The Soviet Empire continues to ideologically oppose and attempts to undermine the cooperation of the various American splinter states and the GEC, and hopes to regain much of its former Soviet territory lost 60 years ago.

So I reread the OOC twice and I can't find anyone who claimed the countries I picked @MetalLover, I saw SpookySquid chose territories right next to me. Specifically Mali, Guinea, Sierra Leonne, Liberia, and Guinea-Bissau. Now if someone did claim any of those countries earlier please let me know so I can adjust accordingly.

Nah Canada clearly isn't important enough so it was easily wiped out...
So I realize this is bad timing but I won't be able to post IC until Wednesday... maybe Thursday. I humbly ask that you keep Dominus in your hearts and reach out to hire them so I can jump in should you start before then.
<Snipped quote by MetalLover>
I have pretty bad luck when it comes to claiming countries. XD I'm going to reread the entire ooc and double check these things to avoid you having to go looking yourself.
