Is it okay if we don't use all our points?

Feel free to not use all of them!

I think we're going to need more nations who don't use all their points...

Yeah, if I used all my points it'd be a little scary how advanced and militarized I am, so let's just not.

Edit: my GDP will end up being slightly more than modern Russia's at around 2.3 trillion... Is that kosher or no?

If yes, then please reserve Hawaii, Micronesia, Macronesia, and Polynesia.

[Kentsland]

Would like to reserve the island of Cuba (unless someone else claimed it and I missed it, in which case screw you all).

[Litovat]

Might I reserve the entirety of Spain, Portugal, and Morocco?

[Arumdaum]

Everyone let's use the #AWRP chat instead of #Tiandi, since things get confusing

Might I reserve the entirety of Spain, Portugal, and Morocco?

yes!

Short History of your Nation:
Colonization: The island of Cuba (meaning "Where fertile land is abundant" in the native Taino language) was first discovered by European explorers in the late 15th century, most prominently, Iberia. The first notable settlement on the Island was the city of Puerto de Manca. Not long after, explorers from Egypt landed on the northern shores of the Island. The cities of New Giza and Arnak are two of the first Egyptian settlements on the Island. At first, the Egyptian and Iberians stayed generally out of each other's way.
The Taino Wars: In the late 16th Century, intense skirmishes between the Iberians and the native Taino Indians forced the Spanish/Portuguese back to the shores.
Egyptian-Iberian War: In an attempt to rout the Egyptians out of Northern Cuba, the Iberians launched an attack against the Egyptians in the late 1600s. The Egyptians were overpowered at sea and were forced to sign the Treaty of New Giza in 1702, which ceded control over the coastal cities to Iberia and placed a heavy tax on the Egyptian cotton and sugar plantations.
Egyptian War of Independence: The Egyptian Cubans rallied behind a young plantation owner, Anenhut, in 1783. Anenhut led an uprising against the Iberian occupiers. After routing the Spanish out of New Giza, his army, The First Royal Army of Cuba, raised Anenhut to Pharaoh of the Royal Kingdom of Cuba. After the Battle of Net River, in which the First Royal Army won a long bloody battle, the Iberians retreated out of Northern Cuba in 1791, and a hasty peace agreement was signed.
Egyptian War of Independence II: When Puerto Rico went up in rebellion in 18xx, the Cubans once again went to war with Iberia and managed to kick the last Iberians out of southern Cuba. For the first time in history, the entire Island of Cuba was united under one power. A peace agreement in 1815 additionally ceded the Atenfall Isles (Bahamas), forming the Royal Kingdom of Cuba and the Atenfall Isles.
Constitution: Following the circumstantial murder of controversial Pharaoh Kopshusho in 1871, The Cuban Constitution was written and ratified, forming a legislative body-the Royal Senate.
Short Description of your nation:
A, generally, conservative island nation in the Caribbean Sea with strong ties to ancient Egypt. The Pharaoh is the head of the government. The Royal Senate is the Kingdom's legislative body, with 50 representatives elected to serve 5 year terms. Many ancient practices and rituals still exist, although mostly in a ceremonial way.

The Cuban economy relies heavily on the exportation of sugar cane, tobacco, citrus, livestock, and nickle. In addition, the sandy beaches of Cuba (and annexed Atenfall [Bahama] Isles) and flashy casinos has led to a substantial tourism industry. The Royal Kingdom, however, relies on automobiles, oil, arms, and manufactured goods as imports.

Short History of your Nation: When Knut the Great died he divided his realm between his son Harald (who took England), Harthacnut (who took Denmark) and his third son Svein Knutsson (who took Norway). The three brothers were constantly at war and Harthacnut ended up victorious, overthrowing the unpopular Svein in Norway. Afterwords he landed in England overthrew Harald - once more the Knutrike was united. Harthacnut died without issue under mysterious circumstances in 1042. The dynasty was dead, Harald had drowned when he fled from London and Svein was imprisoned without an heir or any prospects in Denmark.

Olav Hansson, a Danish general seeing chaos as Cnut's Empire fell to pieces seized power in Denmark, he lead a fleet across the Skagerrak to seize Norway but Harald Hardrada took control of Norway and defeated him. Olav fell back to Denmark and Harald Hardrada sailed across the sea to England and took power once more, however he was defeated by a resurgent Anglo-Saxon Kingdom and were forced out.

Hardrada's successors continued to rule Norway and the Fairhair Dynasty became more and more powerful. Slowly how ever the Fairhair began to loose power as Norway descended into chaos as rival kings, and factions the most powerful of whom were the Baglers and the Birkebeiners. Eventually the Birkebeiners took power and installed Haakon IV who would lead Norway into a golden age of culture and expansion. Haakon lead several viking fleets and took control of Scotland, after years of raids and invasions Haakon defeated their King and took the crown for himself.

Haakon also forced the union of Iceland to Norway - Haakon added Iceland as a province of Norway. Haakon's family would continue to rule Norway and would dominate continental politics for a millenia. Norway was the foremost naval power on Earth, "Norway rules the waves" was a common sentiment throughout the world. Newfoundland, Labrador and Bermuda would all become colonies of Norway. Ireland would be become a realm of the Crown of Norway when the High King of Ireland married his daughter to the King of Norway, upon his death she succeeded the throne unified their two crowns.

The American Revolution overthrew the Norwegians and established an independent republic. The Norwegians still remained the foremost naval power on the globe, using their massive navy and professional army to enforce their will on the world, Norway never had a very large colonial empire but with the waves under their control they could exercise de facto power. Norway still stubbornly hangs onto their Northern Atlantic Empire.

Short Description of your nation: Norway is now very liberal. Banking, lumber, fishing, mining, oil and shipbuilding are major industries. What else is their to say?
