@Theodorable

What if most players are part of the Tsardom?

Would we have start fighting amongst ourselves or have a foreign enemy?

@NecroKnight

That depends, of course on the whims of the players.

Age of Nations [Post 1815 to 1915 RP]

@Theodorable

So we can choose to be part of the Tsardom or not?

@NecroKnight

If you would like, yes.

Age of Nations [Post 1815 to 1915 RP]

@Theodorable

So I assume, this is like the Imperium of Man.

@NecroKnight

I'm not familiar enough with it to make that comparison. Nations within it have self-actualized autonomy but the Imperial Tsar can limit it at the risk of increased unrest. Currently only Vornehm, Boccia and Osladia are player nations in the Tsardom.

Age of Nations [Post 1815 to 1915 RP]

@Theodorable

What is the Imperial Tsardom anyway? Are we a part of that nation - how would that be possible?

Or is it just, one of the top dogs, of the world? Great Powers...

@NecroKnight

The Imperial Tsardom is multi-ethnic complex of politically linked territories in the center of the Continent. The office of Imperial Tsar is traditionally elective, although frequently controlled by dynasties. The prince-electors, the highest-ranking noblemen of the empire, usually elected one of their peers as "Tsar of the Empire," and he would later be crowned emperor by the aristocracy; the tradition of aristocratic coronations was discontinued in the 16th century. The empire never achieved the extent of political unification formed in countries like Gilbadia, evolving instead into a decentralized, limited elective monarchy composed of hundreds of sub-units, principalities, duchies, counties, Free Imperial Cities, and other domains. The power of the emperor was limited, and while the various princes, lords, bishops and cities of the empire were vassals who owed the emperor their allegiance, they also possessed an extent of privileges that gave them de facto independence within their territories.

Finally have time to participate in one of your RPs @Theodorable. Are we to make up our own nations map?

Gilbadia

• Nation Name: The Kingdom of Gilbadia
• Head of State, Age: His Majesty King Richard Stuart II
• Capital: The City of Wolsey, Royal Province
• City Names:
  
  
  
  • Mansfield
  • Wingston
  • Ackrington
  • Blackridge
  • Squall's End
  • Eastcliff
  • Fall Haven
  • Baerney
  • Kainfeld
  • Redmond

• Province Names: Lake, Park, River, Royal, Elder
• Emphasis:
  -- Stability.
  -- Size.
  -- Population.
  -- Colonies.
  -- Military.
  -- Navy. X
  -- Economy. X
  -- Education.
  -- Protectorates.
• Brief History
  The Kingdom of Gilbadia managed to stay neutral in the most recent continental conflicts. King Richard Stuart has invested heavily in the Royal Navy to protect the commercial fleet. Gilbadia is committed to the success of the Congress of Nations in order to promote economic prosperity. Meanwhile, social grievances coupled with industrial innovation are beginning to fracture a centuries old aristocracy in the Kingdom. (OOC: meh history. Collaboration would be great)

@Polybius

Accepted! And no, you'll be randomly added to the map.

Do you have any aversions to being an Empire, because you have colonies--thus ruling over multiple peoples. You can remain a kingdom if you wish, just a question--as that was the historical standard.

The Osladian Tsardom (WIP)

The Osladian Tsardom

Ний сме достойни!

Head of State, Age: Lubomir II Manevski (46)
Capital: Oslograd
City Names: *Already done*
Province Names: *Already done*
Emphasis: (Please select two. Order is not important)

Brief History Oslad, like many of the provinces now occupying the Imperial Tsardom, were once havens for large and ever quarreling barbarian chiefdoms in the days of the first civilizations. Over hundreds to thousands of years, and countless occupiers, the lands of the Tsardom are now the bulkhead for what liberals call 'Reactionary' ideology. Standing like a bear on his hind legs, the Imperial Tsardom and the Osladian Tsardom stand together as a united front against the plague of liberalism. Together with a coalition of other grand empires and great houses, Oslad and her allies were able to bring down the liberal tyrants once, and they shall do it again in the years and wars to come.

As of 1815, Oslad and the Imperial Tsardom at large prosper in the post-war era under the reign of Tsar Lubomir II, also known as 'Lubomir the Great'. The heir apparent, if Oslad is to continue holding her position as Imperial Tsar, is Lubomir's more progressive and pacifistic son, Anton. While Lubomir II preaches of the victory against the liberal hydra being a sign of 'empires to last for another century to come', the heir apparent continues calling for a peaceful solution and co-existence with the recent republics that now stand on the Continent at large. Surely, in time, the Tsar and his heir will be forced to come to heads and the Tsardom will have to make a choice.

@Theodorable

Do we need to put any emphasize on the population? Plus what is the economy bar and how does it factor?

And have we any need to fill out the army?

xxx

If were not and create based on the Nation Application.

I have to ask what the Emphasis bar entail? What does it mean if I choose Navy and Size? What does it add?

@NecroKnight

You can put emphasis on the population if you wish to have a larger one. The economy is a static number from -1,000 to +1,000 which indicates how strong your nation's economy is.

The Emphasis you can pick add a random dice modifier. So if you select Navy, it will add +1d20 plus Ships of the Line to your Navy, for example.

Age of Nations

January 1st, 1815. For the first time in so many years, there is peace. The Congress of Nations has begun and is set to establish order so that never again such a great Tyranny might befall the Continent. The Great Powers will arrange themselves as the Gendarmes of the Continent, forging alliances, treaties and pacts so that law might reign in anarchy, that law might subdue chaos. Still, nations ply their trade, the people rebuild, and the politically inclined look toward new fires. The seeds of nationalism burn brighter now than ever before.

New ideas have found their home in the corners of men's minds. Liberalism. The poison in the heart of Empire. You must strive to maintain Order. Ensure supremacy by expanding trade, maintaining peace within the realm, and conquering your enemies. The old ways yet remain. The Old Ways yet sustain.

@Theodorable I take that as "Sure, go ahead and unify Italy! I won't mind!", so thank you very much ;) I'll come up with a name later on.

So how's things with a map? Will you make one?

@ONL

Yes sir! I'm quite the cartographer (if you look at the Boccia map above!)

OKAY! We have enough interest! To the OOC!
