Antiquity Rises Rampant 2.0! (OOC/Signups/Open)

[Sasutary Island]

Name of Civilization: The Impirrenship of Rynatoo
Location: In and around the Yellow River valley.
Specialty: Artisanship.
Nomad or Settled: Settled!
History: Nearly four thousand years before this RP, the people of the Impirrenship were but nomads who roamed the steppes. But after realizing the benefits of agriculture, the nomads settled in he fertile Yellow River valley. Their population has grown dramatically to almost one and a half million, and the capital of Rynatoo holds over fifty thousand. While very isolated, the Rynatooans have enourmous potential. Silk and pottery are major exports, as the nearby states are also quite advanced. Bronze working gives an advantage over the Northern Tribes, but it's manpower is the real Rynatooan safety net.
Culture: Rylonian! After the first nomads settled throughout the valley, they formed a distinct culture.

Just FYI, this RP will probably stay pretty Eurocentric. If you want to interact with any other players, you might want to choose a different place. If not, then accepted!

but of course, troops will look differently from when from different areas. Mine will probably have sleeves.

[Reatra]

Hmmmmm..... Maybe Indus Valley will have more contact?

[Pharland]

So are we going to go Holy Roman Empire with it where its loosely united or what?

But different people from different parts will look different, mine will probably have sleeves, Syracuse's troops will probably be wearing singlets.

[Sasutary Island]

its like a confederation. There's gonna be a senate in Rome where we bicker on and on on how we should have destroyed Carthage and every man women and child a long time ago.

Wrestling singlets?

Also, should our troops have family colors on their shields and tunics?

I wonder how this empire will fall.

By families in civil wars and people taking advantage of it.

There will be ALOT, once a day or two have passed.

That'd be more likely, but I'd still go further west.

Also, everybody, there will be no map tonight. This computer is pissing me off, and I'll do it tomorrow. And I've changed my mind, I don't want to be Egypt this time. I was thinking a Babylon-like nation, a gallic / germanic nation, or something Greek. Maybe Crete and Cyprus. Thoughts?

Be Barbarous, so the GLORIOUS empire shall romanize you, by force... *cracks fist*

We need to clone an army of Marcius from Ryse son of rome, then we will be unstoppable!

[Reatra]

Is Mesopotamia free?

[Sasutary Island]

Is Mesopotamia free?

Aye.

[The Nation of Hay]

Is Mesopotamia free?

Why yes, yes it is.

[Pharland]

What if we go with the notion of having the armies of those in the Empire be each of the nations within going in the general direction of their nation, therefore each conquering north, south, east and west?
