Ah shit. Sorry about not getting my character's history finished. Just been abit overburdened as of late. I assume it's too late to get that done?

The Age of Nations (19th century Nation RP)

@Theodorable The new map looks good, lots of nations to conquer experience their culture.

I'm currently in the process of a rather large revamp of my faction, both in terms of government and history. Will be taking inspiration from the Russian Empire, the Poland-Lithuania Commonwealth and more, hopefully this will become evident as changes are made.

The Age of Nations (19th century Nation RP)

Just a heads up, I will be changing my history. I don't think the history I have written at the moment suits what I had in mind for my nation, on some reflection.

@Milkman Most excellent! Consider me a trade partner. I will add this development to my NS.

The Age of Nations (19th century Nation RP)

You uh, maritime powers want to trade with a little republic, for resources it needs, don't you?

The Age of Nations (19th century Nation RP)

And I believe I'm done. History is finished, not sure if i'm happy with it but for now it will do. Although I guess we should work out nation relations and what state they are in by the start of the RP.

@Theodorable Do you want us to describe our military? For instance our line infantry etc and numbers.

The Age of Nations (19th century Nation RP)

Gah. I want to make a history that involves other players to create more of a background in this world, however I fear that by the time it is done another will have taken my place as a Major Power. Perhaps a PiratePad is in order?

I'll finish how the Commonwealth was founded and then start thinking about the above, that can be done after.

Even if they get to keep their huge army this could lead to some very interesting scorched earth tatics to use against them due to their HUGE army and dire need of food to fuel it :D

@Hockeystyle

This is also a good point, while I do have a big army and I will use that to my advantage. With it also comes weaknesses that have been laid bear, it will be a huge task to keep such a large army standing, and that I assure you will be portrayed in the RP. I'm not some unreasonable guy that just want's a huge army to crush others, I just thought it might be interesting to RP such a nation and I promise all that I won't be some arsehole about it.

Edit: I would also like to point out that I have a huge border, and I will require soldiers to protect it all. You'll never be facing a million soldiers, or even half of that for logistic reasons at one time.

The Age of Nations (19th century Nation RP)

@Milkman I would just like to point out, that it was you that decided where you allocated your points for your nation. By way of the points, our factions are equal, It seems you only have a problem with the way I spent mine because I have made a veiled threat. Nevertheless, I am completely fine if alterations are made to the army size and population to maintain historical accuracy, as-long as it applies to everyone and not just myself.
I can't speak for the way army sizes were worked out, I assume it was a % of my population but I am not privy to that information and so can't speak for it.

The Age of Nations (19th century Nation RP)

Seeing a lot of maritime powers with little populations and thus armies. Heh, perhaps the Commonwealth can find more land in the Old World, than the new.
