You should laugh every moment you live, for you'll find it decidedly difficult afterwards.

Bio
Hey there, I assume you want to know about me so here it is...
The name is gowia (g-ow-ee-ah) or Alex. Or anything else you come up with, I'm not fussy.
I am a 25 year old male, though comfortably I'll play anything as a character.
I am a Brit born and bred and so that is my lingo, I use British words and love my slang, and if I don't seem to make sense I may simply be using English idioms that don't translate outside the rural country abodes I swan around.
I enjoy all sorts of things, I am an avid football (soccer) player and supporter, adore music, and live for a good story. I am in love with history. So you will always get a decent plot or conversation out of me on that subject.
If there is anything else you need to ask, feel free too. I swear I don't bite... much.

Just a little nudge to people, I cant wait to see more nations. If all the people who have posted here get a sheet up we will have 8 and that for me would definitely be enough to start the IC.
Not as of yet, however if people want that I can make one, or you can make your own and if you want I shall give it some lands, like the papal state.
I say dereken you just pick a place and we go? Hop on your flying machine!
EDIT: Apologies, double post.
I can post with the north. Certain times will be better than others though due to college work.
Im still going.
Yeah you are welcome to join, I will edit peoples territory for a final map so that all land is taken up.
EDIT: I will also add any rolls people need and will link a nation dump for those that are done.

You are welcome too.
No worries, budget keeps people a little bit realistic, stability is for me, there will be random events that can affect your populace and the less stable you are it increases the chances of riots, strikes and possibly even a revolution. I will roll for that stuff to keep it fair. The map will expand, when I have enough countries I will make the first IC post and it will be the discovery of a new continent.
Starharbour, The Shellik Hills.
The morning was crisp in the Draki's lands, however Odenus Setrupus had called a meeting with the most influential families, each of whom had sent one representative. The meeting was to discus the acquisition of the rest of the island they were based on. The Dakonian island, as the Draki called it.
"Men of the Draki, you are the rich and powerful, the men and women who make decisions that can effect the whole tribe. In the past we have been closed off and steered away from the wars that plague those on the mainlands. Well our time of seclusion s over, however before we unleash the sea horde we have work to be done. First of course is to make our claim on the rest of Draki island. I have decided to introduce and Land Enclosures law. This will allow each of you to make a claim on certain area's of the island in exchange for your lands in our current territory and for a share of the resources in the land every month. The more you give of course the more you will be awarded."
The representatives looked at each other and quietly mumbled amongst themselves The deal was an extreme one however it would limit the cost to the tribe as the families would build their own holdings whilst also in the long term benefitting them as they would be able to collect a lot of the resources on the island.
"You of course would have your own hunting and gathering rights in your lands and the resources taken by the tribe as a toll is going to change depending on what you collect that month. I will of course let you decide on this as I would not force you to do this however the families that do will become the richest in our soon to be huge island empire."
There were a few cheers however the people still did not seem to be fully behind the plan.
"People of the Draki, we were born from the sea ad we must return to the sea, the wood across these islands is valuable and the iron and animals would be extremely important. You would be the heroes who helped our tribe back into the halls of greatness. So I ask you. Who are we?."
The echo's of "Draki!" rang back.
"And what do we do?"
"Rise from the sea like a dragon."
"In which case do we have an agreement?"
The room rocked with cheers so loud that the gods themselves could have heard. Odenus was happy with the result, there would be larger lands an with less of a cost to the tribe, as well as this the resources could be used to begin the growings of the Draki fleet, it was pitiful in comparison to what it had been. Soon they could take the islands back.
