The year is 91 B.C. (Before Current). The Varectian Republic has a long and storied martial history, but her sudden expansion has stalled. With the great Southern Mayyad Empire growing in the south, and the Lacedonian and Delosian provinces requiring attention across the water, the Republic must now face threats external and internal, lest it fall apart at treacherous hands from the inside and growing threats from the outside. The Ardenoisian Tribes to the north and the People of Marfactorum and Thecian colony of Sarecia on the Delosian Isle to the east, the potential for expansion is ever present. To the west, the Sasticcan Tribes and the fiercely independent Subian tribes threaten trade routes.
The Varectian Republic and it's Provinces, 91 B.C.
The Varectian Senate, with one hundred junior and senior senators is a power unto itself. With the Varectian Legions at it's beck and call, it is a powerful tool, except for it's constant division. You, as a senator of the Varectian Senate or a governor of one of the Republic's vast provinces, will lead the Republic. Though will you lead it to it's continuation, or its downfall?
These are the provinces in order of accumulation: Varectia: The home of the Varectian Republic. It is the most developed of the entire Republic with a population of about 450,000 Varectians. Home to Varus, the capital of the Republic and the Varectian Senate, it is an important trade hub. It is the only province under the guidance of the Senate, and not a governor. -- Governor: NONE. -- Loyalty: 10/10 -- Garrison: 50,000 Auxilia, 20 Triremes -- Manpower: 100,000 Men. -- Income: 300 Vects/Year
Samelko: The first conquest of the fledgling Varectian Republic in 285 B.C. The Samelko tribes were fanciful traders and explorers, but their ability to wage war was questionable at best. The short Samelko War saw the complete subjugation of Samelko by the Varectian Republic. It's long time conquest has seen a huge migration of Samelkan's and Varectians to such an extent, the two provinces are nearly indistinguishable. Samelko has a meager population of 75,000. -- Governor: NONE. -- Loyalty: 9/10 -- Garrison: 5,000 Auxilia, 45 Triremes, 15 Quadriremes -- Manpower: 10,000 Men. -- Income: 80 Vects/Year -- Treasury: 120 Vects
Tyyrhia: The Kingdom of Tyyrhia, with a population of 150,000 had been at odds with the Varectians since after the Samelko War. The Tyyrhians, a fledgling naval power, eventually decided to try their luck before the Varectians became too powerful. The Vareco-Tyyrhian War lasted twelve years, and saw the first major use of the Varectian Legion, and specifically I LegionTyrannicus, which distinguished itself in the Battle of Herus. Tyyrhia, conquered in 218 B.C. has not yet settled it's ways, but is a variable breadbasket to the empire. -- Governor: NONE. -- Loyalty: 7/10 -- Garrison: 13,000 Auxilia, I Legion Tyrannicus (5,000) -- Manpower: 45,000 Men -- Income: 140 Vects/Year -- Treasury: 180 Vects
Naussius: In 191 B.C. the Varectian Republic turned south, to the sloping desert plains of the Naussian tribes. Naussius, with a population of 250,000 (which at the same made it the second most powerful nation in the world), was divided into eight separate tribes. It was the Naussian leader Antoginus who saw the rising threat of Varectian hegemony in the area. He united five of the tribes when the Varectian legions marched into Naussia. Antoginus, with an army of 80,000 men (nearly a third of every man who could carry a sword), destroyed the Varectian army under Caecina Severus in 189 B.C. at the Battle of Maesia. In 188 B.C. Caecina Severus returned with a second army, and conquered Naussia, personally slaying Antognius in battle. The Naussia province, though small, is well inhabited, but it's loyalty to the empire has long been questioned. -- Governor: NONE. -- Loyalty: 5/10 -- Garrison: 20,000 Auxilia, III Legion Haestio (5,000), IV Legion Maesia (5,000) -- Manpower: 95,000 Men -- Income: 100 Vects/Year -- Treasury: 150 Vects
Tuebia: The largest province of the Republic, Tuebia was the result of two five year expeditions under Consul Domitian Justinius from 185 B.C. to 174 B.C. The Tuebian tribes were scattered, and were never fully united, which allowed the countless plains and forests to be conquered piecemeal. The Tuebian warriors, some of the most fierce in the world, were not easily bested and required no less than three legions for it's full conquest. With a population of over 600,000, it is the most populous province in the Republic. -- Governor: -- Loyalty: 6/10 -- Garrison: 75,000 Auxilia, VI Legion Majan (5,000), VII Legion Tuebicus (5,000) -- Manpower: 115,000 Men -- Income: 175 Vects/Year -- Treasury: 262 Vects
Millyria: The Millyrian Province fell during the Varecto-Millyrian Wars, lasting on and off between 174 B.C. and 151 B.C. The conquests, which quietly took chunks of Millyrian lands, wore down the embattled tribes in the land and destroyed the Millyrian Kingdom that formed in 153 B.C. to fully oppose the Varectian Republic. The Millyrian King was defeated, returned to Varus and executed in 152 B.C. Millyria is rich in mines and golds and has become a functional and contributing member of the Republic since it's annexation. -- Governor: None -- Loyalty: 7/10 -- Garrison: 50,000 Auxilia, VIII Legion Millyria (5,000) -- Manpower: 95,000 Men -- Income: 260 Vects/Year -- Treasury: 330 Vects
Lacedonia: Lacedonia, another overseas province conquered in 101 B.C, was the one of the first "civilized" conquests by Varectia. The Kingdom of Lacedonia, home to Tespasia the Grand, once ruled a swathe of land thrice as large as Varectia herself. The kingdom he left in his death in 421 B.C. however was decadent and weak. The tribes he conquered to the north quickly returned to self-governance, and the current King of Lacedonia, Magrik, offered only meager resistance to the Varectian Legions that marched to his shores. With a population of 180,000, Lacedonia is still fiercely independent and it's people often clamber against Varectian rule. -- Governor: Julius Conrad Velos, 29. (LordZell) -- Loyalty: 4/10 -- Garrison: 18,000 Auxilia, IX Legion Lacos (5,000), II Legion Festivus (5,000) -- Manpower: 50,000 Men -- Income: 90 Vects/Year -- Treasury: 180 Vects
Calenus: Won in a border dispute with the Subians in 96 B.C., the Calenus Province is devoid of resources, manpower and station. It is a functional backwater, and any governor sent here would be well put out of the way. The Calenian coast is a trader's paradise, but the area is run rampant with pirates and slavers from Western Serranthia. -- Governor: Sangarinus Arborius -- Loyalty: 3/10 -- Garrison: 10 Triremes, V Legion Domitia (5,000) -- Manpower: 10,000 Men -- Income: 15 Vects/Year -- Treasury: 29 Vects
Delos: Only recently just conquered at the head of Consul Lucius Arruntius's expedition to the Delosian Isle in 91 B.C, Delos is the newest addition to the Republic. The people there reside under the reign of a nation that has conquered them and are fiercely resentful of such a fact. They constantly threaten rebellion. With a population of 60,000 however, it should be an easy job managing such a minor, far away province to the Republic. -- Governor: Primus Stertinius Lucius -- Loyalty: 3/10 -- Garrison: 16,000 Auxilia, Legion X Delosia (5,000) -- Manpower: 20,000 Men -- Income: 40 Vects/Year -- Treasury: 45 Vects
VARECTIAN REPUBLIC Dictator: None (Peacetime) Consul: Varectian Army: See Provinces Income (Provincial Income / 2): 108 Vects/Year. [TREASURY: 464 Vects] Costs: -- Auxilia (1 Vect/Year x 55) = 55 -- Legions (20 Vects/Year x 10) = 200 -- Naval Fleet (2 Vects/Year x 80) = 177
MECHANICS -- You as a player will represent a single character: a Varectian Senator or Governor. -- The game will begin with a Sortition (casting of lots) to appoint Governorship and Appointments. -- One Turn is equal to 3 Years in peace and 1 Year in war. -- Each Turn, a character may take 1 Action: * [Call for Vote| Senator Only]: You may call for a vote on the following: Raise Legion (Costs 100 Vects), Disband ForcesRelocate Forces, Raise Navy (Costs 150 Vects), Call to War, Call to Trade, Call for Peace, Call for Appointment, Call for Exploration (Costs 200 Vects), Call for Legislation.
* [Raise/Disband Troops | Governor Only]: If you are a Governor, you may raise/disband 3,000 Varectian Auxilia for 30 Vects in your territory or (if it's legal) 3,000 Native Auxilia for 20 Vects or 5 Triremes for 30 Vects.
* [Plot]: This creates a Plot, which you may ask others to join. You may Plot to Seize Power or Plot to Kill. Use this wisely.
* [Govern/Campaign]: You may Increase Loyalty in your province, or Decrease Loyalty in a neighboring province if you are a governor, or Increase Support for your Senator by 3 Senators or Decrease Support for another Senator by 2 Senators. This costs 30 Vects from the Vectarian Treasury.
* [Send Gift]: May send a gift of 30 Vects to a PC or NPC character or an NPC nation your Province borders.
* [Develop Province]: May spend 40 Vects to increase Income in your Province by 1 Vect/Year.
* [Build a Fort]: You may spend 100 Vects to build a fort on the border in your province.
* [Consolidate Power]: You will receive 1 Military Event (Randomized One Use Military Ability) that you can play at any time in lieu of an Action. To play the Military Event, you also use this action. A Military Event cannot be gained and played in the same turn.
* [Consolidate Support]: You will receive 1 Support Event (Randomized One Use Political Ability) that you can play at any time in lieu of an Action. To play the Support Event, you also use this action. A Support Event, cannot be gained and played in the same turn.
* [Military Expedition]: Governors may attack enemy forces using any number of Auxilia they have. Success will generate Influence and Gold.
THE GOAL OF THE GAME -- As a Varectian, you may want to expand the empire in a war. You may want to see it's citizens more loyal. You may wish to forge alliances. You may wish. . to become Emperor. These are all possible. -- Governors must pay attention to the Loyalty of their provinces. Higher loyalty will increase it's income. Lower loyalty may cause it to revolt, though Governor's who wish to seize power may want a rebellious province. A province not loyal to the Republic will also be more loyal to the governor if he too does not support Varectia. -- Senators must pay attention to their Support, which can range from 0 to 100. These NPC Senators are crucial for passing bills in your favor. -- Besides just your actions, great IC posts will garner favorable events for you.

That's the whole game. I as moderator will represent the NPC powers of the game. The world map is much larger than what you see above, but Varectia must explore if it wishes to find new lands.

Age of Imperialism 2.0: TURN 4| January, 1920 (Week 8) (Turn 4, Part 8 of 12)
Friday, March 5th The Empire of Mille-Sessau co-signs the Maritime Safety Act of 1921. They pledge to help clear Tervasan waters of mine, though they currently have only a handful of ships capable of performing such duties. The Empire dispatches the light cruiser Orage and two destroyers Sirroco and Tornade to run the anticipated supply run from Sikea to Fuso in anticipation of discovering survivors or wreckage of the lost ships.
Saturday, March 6th West of Wuwei, Yuxiang Clique soldiers begin to converge on the supply trains headed through Fuso into Clique territory. Sporadic fighting to maintain the supply train begins, but General Tujoki remains mostly mum on orders for his men.
Sunday, March 7th The Hond Committee is formed to discover the loss of three ships. Similarly, Convoy Fleet Und is formed with three convoys ships and escorted by the destroyers SRF Braakmans and SRF Albach. The five ships are anticipated to reach Fuso by the middle of next week.
Monday, March 8th After the Republic of Kalpia suffers a horrible earthquake in it's capital, damage estimates to repair the city are estimated to be 180,000,000 Kalpian Mariats. With thousands homeless, hundreds killed, the rebuilding has finally begun.
Tuesday, March 9th The Empire of Mille-Sessau donates 1,000,000 Sessauan Spheres to the Republic of Kalpia, with a message from Empress Alexandre de Vaille: "Tragedy will befall all of us, but in Kalpian hearts there is strength. With this aid, feed and clothe those whose homes have been taken from them."
Wednesday, March 10th While patrolling, the Sessauan ships discover and rescue 41 men floating adrift 150 miles east of the Boccian coast. They're pulled aboard, thankful to be alive. Out of over 350 men, the rescued 41 Soroyan merchant sailors are the only ones left. The Sessauan ships patrol further, discovering floating debris from the Soroyan merchant vessels.
The Sessauan government, later in the week in a statement, said: "It is abominable, deplorable and disrespectful to the sea and sailors that sail it to have forsaken the lives of the three merchant ships lost. A grievous callous for the sanctity of each ship may be expected when your shipyards can produce more vessels than any other in the world. This disgusting attitude toward their own servicemen may estrange Sesso-Soroyan relations in the future. We hope that these men, returned now to their families, can hope to forgive a government that had all but forgotten them."
The three Sessauan ships headed toward Soroyan waters to deposit the sailors at Sikea before heading home.
Thursday, March 11th The Kalpian Exploration Society begins exploring the unnamed island of the Oclardth colony.
