That would mean war with me

So you're the mighty British Empire?
Well....
*slips note that I'm supporting you because we're friends*

Anglo-Dutch Empire*

But we can still be friends...no hard feelings, right?

The United States could find another ally in the German Empire.

[Vicavian Empire]

Full Nation Name: Holy Japanese Empire
Short Nation Name: Japan
National Flag:(Image)
Territory: Japan, Ryukyu Islands, Taiwan, Kuril Islands, Jejo-do and Hainan Island
Official Language(s): Japanese, Taiwanese, Ryukyuan and Chinese
Form of Government: Federal Constitutional Parliamentary Hereditary Theocratic Monarchy
Head of State: Emperor Kokaku
Head of Government: Prime Minister Shinji Kamakura
Capital City: Edo
Population: 24,000,000
Religion: Shintoism, Buddhism, Christianity, Hawaii Religion, Daoism, Confucianism, Satanism and Atheism. Shintoism and Buddhism fights over which one of them is the dominant religion in Japan.
Army: 320,000 troops, mostly Samurais and Tanegashima riflemen. The quality is good.
Navy: 60 ships with 20,000 men. The quality is good.
Economic Strength: Japan had much wealth and is led by two things, agricultural working and industrial system. The economy is still feudal, though, but is leaning towards Capitalism.
Infrastructure: Japan's infrastructure is mostly roads and houses of stone, wood and that of the European houses, but in a Japanese lifestyle. Much of the infrastructure was repaired from the civil wars in Japan in 20 years.
Primary Goals: Become a major great power and stay away from isolation.
History: Same as IRL, except the Tokugawa clan lost the Battle of Sekihagra in 1600, thus Japan was ruled by various warlords, who formed an alliance to control Japan, until the Japanese Revolution, a revolution led by loyalists of the Imperial Japanese Family from 1778 to 1780. In 1780, the Holy Japanese Empire was founded and it's first leader was the 9 years old Emperor Kokaku. The HJE later invaded Ryukyu Islands, Hainan Island, Kuril Islands, Jejo-do and Taiwan from 1780 to 1800. Now, Japan is soon emerging as a great power after years of isolation and civil wars.
RP Example: I am OP of my own RPs (all of them are AH with mechas).

Done!

How can you be industrial, if Japan hadn't been "opened" by Matthew Perry yet? Matthew Perry reached Japan around 1850...

Thank you for bringing that up. I'll allow industrial but not to the point of major industrial power. In 1800, most of Japan's economy should still be supported by agriculture. Though from your background Trade would also be a large supporting pillar due to the island territories under Japanese control.

Fuck. I wanted to do some colonial power. But Spain, Portugal, France, Germany, UK, Netherlands all taken. And Italy isn't united yet, correct? Or at least not capable of colonizing.

Any way I can reserve since no one seems to have claimed it yet?

I wouldn't exactly say not capable...and there's the Kingdom of Scotland, which became independent in the Jacobite Rebellion/Scottish war of independence. They probably have some colonies, thought not to the extent of some of the other colonial powers

If I recall Russia isn't on the reserve list or openly applied for yet.

I don't want Russia. Hmm.

Maybe some Muslim caliphate I'll make.
Idk, I'll think of something

[Gyrenaica]

Maybe a greater Qing Empire. I'll make map to show what I mean.

Here are the "boundaries" compared to modern states.

Obviously they've changed due to the existence of Byzantium still.

Which means the Turks never unified under the house of Osman, and became the Caliphs (of Sunni Islam).

On a note the map needs to be update since it is rather deceptive as to the amount of territory open. Could you somehow put a striped color over the reserved territories also?

Well the map they posted listed it is as unclaimed so their loss.

On a note it isn't unclaimed in the actual sense of Terra Nullius considering European settlements were there (not to mention the areas under control by Native American civilizations).

I am currently unable to update at the moment as I am online via my phone whilst to update the map I need to use my laptop which I currently cannot do.

The map will be updated later today.

You have bigger problems to worry about, like the potentially big (incredibly big actually) country that could come out of the Viceroyalty of New Spain.

Currently there are two North American nations; The United States of America and Canada. The Greater French Empire controls Louisiana (current day state borders for Louisiana not the territorial bounderies of the era. Makes it more fair.)

Has less of a ring to it than the United Kingdom of the Netherlands, and Great Britain (obviously unifying England, and Wales).

History doesn't need an application for something to be done.

France will defend its hold upon Louisiana to the last breath. The same goes for Martinique and Haiti. So says Emperor Napoleon. Vive Napoleon!
