Navy & Economy - Brief History
A nation state forged anew in the anvil of war. The Veldlands, named so because of the vast vistas of plains and hillocks upon which the nation sits, is a nation heralding a distinguished history of naval prowess and colonization which before it's annexation under the Great Tyrant, had allowed the nation to flourish for centuries under an ever shifting government. This second-rate naval power, ever shadowed by the major powers in it's neighbors and the likes Gilbradia, would find itself annexed in the early 19th century.
When war did break out between the allied powers and the Great Tyrant some years later, and the tide turned, the Veldlandians would overthrow the Tyrannical rule in 1813 with the backing of the Empire of Gilbradia. And, after the Velandian-Gilbradian Treaty of 1814, would go onto name their state the "Unified Veldlands" which would gain official recognition following the Tyrants defeat, by the Congress of Nations in 1815 which would oversee the state's official recognition as "The Unified Kingdom of the Veldlands", the unification of the past nation's provinces and the reinstatement of the rule of House Orlowski which had since escaped to the safety of Gilbradia.
A short amount of time has passed since it's resurgence as a nation, and the Unified Kingdom now under the rule of King Edmund I Orlowski, finds itself in an uncertain period of it's history and not entirely unscathed, for while the ships are being commissioned, it's regiments of men reforged and it's lands returned, the state finds itself in a struggle to retain it's colonies from the victors.
(Sorry if I've taken too much liberty in regards to our nation's relations Polybius, I just thought your nation would be the most fitting for my history. I can however change it should there be a problem).
Here. Ready to rule the waves!

"Unbowed and Unbroken"
1910
The Imperial Cabinet
--- 19th July ---
--- 19th July ---
"These Karalians, these refugees, they are not of our nation! Send them back!" A voice boomed, it's source a deceptively small man donned in a black three piece suit with an immaculately white undershirt. A man of many seated at the great table but of importance none-the-less, for he was Steffen von Kohlhase, the Prime Minister of Tyria, answerable only to his peers andtheEmperor. "This is no time for sentiment, we must remain firm against dissent. That which the Seljuk Empire does to them once they cross that border is beyond our control. We are not accountable."
"The man which sends another to his death is just as accountable as the one who swings the axe, who pulls the lever." A duke stated glumly from his seat nearby, drawing the irksome gaze of the Prime Minister.
"Enough!" A new voice joined the din, this one accompanied with a thud of the table with a fist. The medals adorning his uniformed chest jingled as the Chief of Army, Matrin Kohler, pulled back his arm with words on his lips. "This is not a debate of morals, it is simple pragmatism. My Emperor, we must hand the Karalians over to the Seljuk for the state must face the traitorous radicals in our own midst, not a man is to be spared guarding refugees. Not a single man." With that the room turned silent, all eyes turned to the monarch whom sat at the head of table.
After some time, the Emperor King responded: "See that it is done Matrin. Send them back." He resolved with a solemn tone.
--- 15th August, 27 Days Later ---
The early morning light spilled into the room as servants and aides rushed to and fro, setting platters down upon tables and pulling open shutters to great yawning windows. Beyond the panes of glass it was yet dawn, and a pale orange lingered in the sky. Despite this, a group of persons found themselves once more seated at the great table which had become a common sight for the Imperial Cabinet whom had met to convene multiple times throughout the troubled July in order to oversee the precarious situation. While it seemed the state had survived the tumultuous month, steps had been taken assuming the worst. Across the country local Landwehr Divisions had been recalled and put on alert, local constabularies had been reinforced and there had even been talk of the purchase and deployment of Saurilian machine guns in order to control potentially riotous crowds.
In the end, none of that had appeared necessary for the state seemed to once more relapse into peace, the state had survived. For how long. For how long would peace last? This question remained on the minds of every man present, some believed indefinitely, others wanted to be prepared when the time came. The debate on how to proceed regarding the Civil Suppression Act went on until the sky had turned a gloomy grey, a light rain now pattered against the glass beyond.
"How we proceed is very much up to us my fellows. The Emperor is attending a ball in Sauril, as such the decision we make today lies solely with us. And it must be decided today." Ulrich Strauss, the Minister of the Interior, spoke as the debate continued anew until finally, a consensus could be reached by dinner that day.

Civil Suppression Act (1910)
After long and deliberating debate, the Imperial Cabinet announces it's intentions to both Parliaments, to put forth the Civil Suppression Act (1910) which will grant enhanced powers to the authorities of the state in protecting the state internally and ensuring under the act, never again a repeat of the Troubles. Hailed by the Prime Minister of Tyria as "the Act to ensure the safety of the nation, to ensure she stands united against the foes of the world who would see her crushed and alone." The Act, while not publicly announced, would also oversee the creation of the 'Internal Security Bureau', a secret intelligence and law enforcement agency which is intended to operate beyond and above the law in order to suppress political dissent away from the public eye.

Denial of Xian
The Tyro-Antarian Empire denies the recognition of the Republic of Xian, decrying the state as one of "Up-jumped sycophants praying on the weaknesses of foreign nations in the name of a disgraceful 'democracy'."
@Crosswire Yeah the RP is still accepting players! Your CS looks fine but just a heads up, I believe your desired spot is already taken by a player. Here's a link to the most updated map of Centran (Not-Europe) with the current nations: s21.postimg.org/hqfcgh0mf/World_005.png
It is worth noting that a few of these nations are NPCs which you could replace with your own nation. Thecia directly to the east of your wanted spot is one such NPC. Should ya need any help, there's also the chatzy where there's usually someone on. Link here: us20.chatzy.com/24997426884830

Karalian Refugees
With the continued advances of Seljuk forces against Karalian dissidents in the neighboring province, the dual monarchy has seen a vast influx of refugees crossing her borders in their reportedly thousands. In response, a meeting of the Imperial Cabinet is set to convene in the coming week where a permanent solution might be discussed and found. As it stands, local constabularies with the support of local military personnel, most notably the 21st Landwher Division, have been tasked with the gathering of these refugees and the reinforcing of the Tyro-Seljuk border. The refugees are to be relocated to the east coast of Tyria-Antar temporarily, under the watch of the constabulary, while the Imperial Cabinet reaches a decision as to what is to be done having received both demands for their return to face summary justice from the Seljuk Empire and offers of sanctuary from neighboring Blutland.

Foulois Accord
'A most auspicious day!' and 'None can doubt the Empire' dominates the headlines of Tyro-Antari newspapers as the Foulois Accord comes to an end. The diligent diplomats of the Imperial Diplomatic Corps have returned with grand news that through hard-fought diplomacy against steep foes, the Koringas Islands are to remain under the Imperial Banner of the good Empire. Asserting their claim to the isles, it is undeniable, it is indisputable. The Koringas Isles are to remain forever Tyro-Antari until the end of days.

From One Crown to Another
Under the watchful gaze of it's escort, the Destroyer SMS Huzsar, the Imperial yacht flying the Tyro-Antari flag at full mast crept into the harbour of Kamrun. It's passenger a diplomat from the Tyro-Antarian Empire, would offer a warm welcome to the Samgolan people in joining the prestigious 'nations of the world.' Carried with him, were official papers bearing the formal recognition of the Kingdom of Samgola by the Tyro-Antarian Empire.
@ClocktowerEchos I would love a population roll. Still here, just working on the NS.

A Night of Smoke and Fine Wine
Swinging in their moorings, the two Dreadnoughts Holzer and Kohlberg lay festooned in light and the sounds of laughter and mirth as they sat fast alongside one another upon the calm waves. The flagship Holzer's decks, covered by striped awnings, were set with circular dinner tables adorned in cloth while that of Kohlberg's provided space for dancing, covered gangways joined the two ships, hung as they were with coloured lights and bunting.
To the honour went these two ships of the Imperial Navy, of hosting both the Emperor King Adalar and his cousin and King of Jouran, Rictus of the houses Wolfram. Upon their steel quarterdecks a ball was taking place, souls danced and dined in an assembly of nobility, royalty and foreign diplomats liberated from their respective embassies. The two monarchs greeted each other warmly, despite the tensions running between states it took much to muddy that of bloodlines as they discussed at length a variety of subjects into the night over cigars and fine platters. For many the night would pass in a blur of swirling smoke, fine wines and food, and the intricacies of the ball upon great castles of steel.

The Carlsburg Affair
Following the recent inquiry embarked upon by Jouran officials into the Carlsburg affair, the Tyro-Antarian diplomatic attaché in Jouran announces that "While the Empire joins the Jouran in grief and a wish for justice in this most unfortunate affair, this justice can only be found from within Tyria-Antar and will be overseen as such, by Tyro-Antari officials and punished by those laws. The truth will be found." the envoy states.

Kavonian Denouncement Crisis
Earlier this month, the Tyro-Antarian Empire announced it's support for the Kingdom of Jouran in the Crisis brought about by Kavonian fear mongering. The Foreign Minister of the Imperial Cabinet, Claus Tischer, has since released the following statement in support of his nation: "This crisis developing before us which threatens to undo everything built upon this continent, this crisis enforced by the most militant of nations. The vast hordes of Staratians and the gunboat diplomats of Zellonia bark and yap, they scream for a proclaimed peace with a barrel against your head! These states do not call for peace, they call for submission and compliance, they would have the entire continent at their mercy. Today they demand through their puppet of Kavonia the dearmament of a single state, tomorrow it shall be Saurilia, Dongaria or the Empire herself! A nation's right is to defend herself until the last drop of blood, to the last shell and bullet. Those who demand one can not, should not defend herself, can only hold the most darkest of ambitions of which we will fight."
@ClocktowerEchos Hey Clock, could I get a re-roll for my Unique Resource and Equipment Quality?
Consider me interested. I'll take some rolls, and then heads can... roll.
