Current Sometimes it doesn’t matter too much what choice you make, as long as you make it quick and stick to it.

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.

Can I be reminded what the date for the change of turn is? I want to see my colonies before I decide actions...if that isn't possible for this turn please let me know. @Theodorable
@NecroKnight @The Nexerus - guys...stop...I'm doing it, let's move onto RP. Yus? No OOC arguing
*Sigh* I will make Civitas the tyrant, we shall say it was formerly held by the tyrant who was deposed upon defeat. However, Tyrant manages to steal a huge fortune of treasure and what not, which then is pumped into the Civitas economy and the people. However, with defeat the country has it's borders reduced and restricted, losing a great deal of land at home (Not in the colonies). Then becomes a point of debate "Was letting the UTC with a slap across the wrists just or too lenient?" The state of the army can be down to the current administration being very jingoistic on returning these lost lands and supporting a strong army in the state.

EDIT: However having one of the smallest pops for a great power and smaller military, may I then take that the military is super advanced only because steamrolling a continent without numbers would be nigh impossible.

Edit 2: Can I get a rough date for the Tyrant to be deposed so I can do my first post pre-1915

Damn... The roll gods were with me... Also I can't see any province names on the Civitas map? Out of interest can I get them so I know where to suppress the mindless serfs :3

Edit: Also, people, please Pm me for a joint history collab with Civitas
I can post a World Map and a Continental Map, though I feel it urges people to try and choose their location, which is randomized.


I'm happy to wait for now, let you roll and sheet to your hearts content before seeing it all, since the moment we all see it, it does urge placement.

Brief History: The land of the UTC occupies the former petty kingdoms of multiple families, whose names lend themselves to the provinces they are divided into. Built on the bedrock of liberalism, the common good and popularism; the UTC has all but failed in most of these regards. Elected political offices in the last 100 years have in fact been delivered into the hands of the ruling families through entirely undemocratic methods. This is based on the warlike nature of the people, in fighting and brawl are as much a part of politics as war, and this means that the UTC has been a fairly active member of the last few wars to plague the world. Whilst also one of the most effective, military technology is invested into heavily for a large and professional army that is well equipped and supplied, sometimes at the cost of the public. As well as this, jingoistic tendancies have given them colonial holdings that bring them into the rank of 'Empire', and in turn this colonies provide forces and goods to fuel the continued efforts of the UTC to embroil itself in the King making of the world.
